1 Brothers, even if a man is caught in some fault, you who are spiritual must restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, looking to yourself so that you also aren’t tempted.
1 HERMANOS, si alguno fuere tomado en alguna falta, vosotros que sois espirituales, restaurad al tal con el espíritu de mansedumbre; considerándote á ti mismo, porque tú no seas también tentado.
2 Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
2 Sobrellevad los unos las cargas de los otros; y cumplid así la ley de Cristo.
3 For if a man thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
3 Porque el que estima de sí que es algo, no siendo nada, á sí mismo se engaña.
4 But let each man examine his own work, and then he will have reason to boast in himself, and not in someone else.
4 Así que cada uno examine su obra, y entonces tendrá gloria sólo respecto de sí mismo, y no en otro.
5 For each man will bear his own burden.
5 Porque cada cual llevará su carga.
6 But let him who is taught in the word share all good things with him who teaches.
6 Y el que es enseñado en la palabra, comunique en todos los bienes al que [lo] instruye.
7 Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.
7 No os engañéis: Dios no [puede] ser burlado: que todo lo que el hombre sembrare, eso también segará.
8 For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.
8 Porque el que siembra para su carne, de la carne segará corrupción; mas el que siembra para el Espíritu, del Espíritu segará vida eterna.
9 Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season if we don’t give up.
9 No nos cansemos, pues, de hacer bien; que á su tiempo segaremos, si no hubiéremos desmayado.
10 So then, as we have opportunity, let’s do what is good toward all men, and especially toward those who are of the household of the faith.
10 Así que, entre tanto que tenemos tiempo, hagamos bien á todos, y mayormente á los domésticos de la fe.
11 See with what large letters I write to you with my own hand.
11 Mirad en cuán grandes letras os he escrito de mi mano.
12 As many as desire to make a good impression in the flesh compel you to be circumcised, just so they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.
12 Todos los que quieren agradar en la carne, éstos os constriñen á que os circuncidéis, solamente por no padecer persecución por la cruz de Cristo.
13 For even they who receive circumcision don’t keep the law themselves, but they desire to have you circumcised, so that they may boast in your flesh.
13 Porque ni aun los mismos que se circuncidan guardan la ley; sino que quieren que vosotros seáis circuncidados, para gloriarse en vuestra carne.
14 But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
14 Mas lejos esté de mí gloriarme, sino en la cruz de nuestro Señor Jesucristo, por el cual el mundo me es crucificado á mí, y yo al mundo.
15 For in Christ Jesus neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.
15 Porque en Cristo Jesús, ni la circuncisión vale nada, ni la incircuncisión, sino la nueva criatura.
16 As many as walk by this rule, peace and mercy be on them, and on God’s Israel.
16 Y todos los que anduvieren conforme á esta regla, paz sobre ellos, y misericordia, y sobre el Israel de Dios.
17 From now on, let no one cause me any trouble, for I bear the marks of the Lord Jesus branded on my body.
17 De aquí adelante nadie me sea molesto; porque yo traigo en mi cuerpo las marcas del Señor Jesús.
18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
18 Hermanos, la gracia de nuestro Señor Jesucristo sea con vuestro espíritu. Amén. Enviada de Roma á los Gálatas.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… Apostle Paul himself made mention of this cross in the following words: "The doctrine of the cross is to them that perish foolishness, but to us who are saved it is the power of God." And again: "God forbid that I should glory in anything save in the cross of Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and …
Whence the apostle says, "For this is our glory, the testimony of our conscience." And in another place he says, "But let every one prove his own work, and then he shall have glory in himself, and not in another." That glory, honor, and power, therefore, which they desired for themselves, and to which the good sought to attain by …

For Paul too intimated this when he said, "He that soweth to his flesh, shall of his flesh reap corruption." To this man are they like also, who build on the sand; as those that are given up to fornication, to wantonness, to drunkenness, to anger, to all the other things.

Every deed of Christ is a cause of glorying to the Catholic Church, but her greatest of all glorying is in the Cross; and knowing this, Paul says, But God forbid that I should glory, save in the Cross of Christ.

"He that soweth to the spirit," it is said, "shall of the spirit reap life everlasting." John too writes, "Hereby we know that he abideth in us by (ek) the spirit which he hath given us." "That which is conceived in her," says the angel, "is of the Holy Ghost," and the Lord says "that which is born of the …
