Galatians 6:4

2 Carry one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.

3 If anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

Each one should test his own work. Then he will have reason to boast in himself alone, and not in someone else.

5 For each one should carry his own load.

6 Nevertheless, the one who receives instruction in the word must share in all good things with his instructor.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
