Galatians 6:8

He who in the flesh soweth, from the flesh corruption reapeth; and he who in the Spirit soweth, from the Spirit the life that is eternal shall reap.

The Peschito Syriac New Testament: Translated into English by John Wesley Etheridge

In The King James Version

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.

9And while we do that which is good, let it not weary us; for the time will be when we shall reap, and it will not weary us.
