Galatians 69

Galatians 6:9 is a verse from the New Testament of the Christian Bible, specifically from the Epistle to the Galatians written by the Apostle Paul. The verse reads: "And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not" (King James Version). This passage encourages perseverance in doing good deeds, promising a future reward for those who do not give up. The Hebrew translation of this verse is: "וְאַל נִלָּהֶה בַּעֲשׂוֹת טוֹב, כִּי בְּעֵת הַזְּמַן נִקְצוֹר אִם לֹא נִתְעָפֵּי" (Ve'al nilahe ba'asot tov, ki b'it hazman niktzor im lo nit'apei). In Greek, the original language of the New Testament, it is: "καὶ μὴ ἐκλύωμεν ποιοῦντες ἀγαθὰ, ἐν καιρῷ γὰρ ἰδίοις ἐκμεταλλευσόμεθα, ἐὰν μὴ ἐκλύωμεν" (Kai mē eklyōmen poioūntes agatha, en kairo gar idiois ekmetalleusometha, ean mē eklyōmen). The context of this verse is Paul's exhortation to the Galatians to continue in their faith and good works despite facing trials and tribulations. He emphasizes the importance of endurance and the assurance of a future harvest for those who do not lose heart. This verse is often cited in Christian teachings to inspire perseverance and steadfastness in the face of adversity.
