Galatians 6:8
| ← Galatians 6:7 | Galatians 6:8 (KJV) | Galatians 6:9 → |
|---|---|---|
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
|
For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.
|
And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
