[a]Be not deceived: God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

For he that soweth to his [b]flesh, shall of the flesh reap corruption: but he that soweth to the spirit, shall of the spirit reap life everlasting.

(A)[c]Let us not therefore be weary of well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

Footnotes

  1. Galatians 6:7 He commendeth liberality towards the poor, and first of all chideth them which were not ashamed to pretend this and that, and all because they would not help their neighbors, as though they could deceive God: and afterward compareth alms to a spiritual sowing, which shall have a most plentiful harvest, so that it shall be very profitable: and compareth covetous niggardliness to a carnal sowing, whereof nothing can be gathered but such things as fade away, and perish by and by.
  2. Galatians 6:8 To the commodities of this present life.
  3. Galatians 6:9 Against such as are liberal at the beginning, but continue not, because the harvest seemeth to be deferred very long, as though the seed time and the harvest were at one instant.
