Galatians 6:3 in Context — Galatians 6

1 Frères, si un homme vient à être surpris en quelque faute, vous qui êtes spirituels, redressez-le avec un esprit de douceur. Prends garde à toi-même, de peur que tu ne sois aussi tenté.

2 Portez les fardeaux les uns des autres, et vous accomplirez ainsi la loi de Christ.

3 Si quelqu’un pense être quelque chose, quoiqu’il ne soit rien, il s’abuse lui-même.

4 Que chacun examine ses propres œuvres, et alors il aura sujet de se glorifier pour lui seul, et non par rapport à autrui;

5 car chacun portera son propre fardeau.
