Galatians 6:9

And in doing good, let us not fail. For in due time we shall reap, not failing.

Douay-Rheims 1899

In The King James Version

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

In Context

10Therefore, whilst we have time, let us work good to all men, but especially to those who are of the household of the faith.
