English Standard Version
23 You who (A)boast in the law (B)dishonor God by breaking the law. 24 For, (C)as it is written, “The name of God is blasphemed (D)among the Gentiles because of you.”
25 For circumcision indeed is of value (E)if you obey the law, but if you break the law, your circumcision becomes uncircumcision. 26 So, if (F)a man who is uncircumcised keeps (G)the precepts of the law, will not his uncircumcision be regarded[a] as circumcision? 27 Then he who is physically[b] uncircumcised but keeps the law (H)will condemn you who have (I)the written code[c] and circumcision but break the law. 28 For (J)no one is a Jew (K)who is merely one outwardly, nor is circumcision outward and physical. 29 But a Jew is one (L)inwardly, and (M)circumcision is a matter of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter. (N)His praise is not from man but from God.

Warning Against Worldliness
4 What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions[a] are (A)at war within you?[b] 2 You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have, because you do not ask. 3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask (B)wrongly, to spend it on your passions. 4 (C)You adulterous people![c] Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? (D)Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. 5 Or do you suppose it is to no purpose that the Scripture says, “He yearns jealously over the spirit (E)that he has made to dwell in us”?
