12 All who want (A)to make a good showing in the flesh try to (B)compel you to be circumcised, simply so that they (C)will not be persecuted for the cross of Christ. 13 For those who [a]are circumcised do not even (D)keep [b]the Law themselves, but they want to have you circumcised so that they may (E)boast in your flesh. 14 But (F)[c]far be it from me to boast, (G)except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, (H)through [d]which the world has been crucified to me, and (I)I to the world. 15 For (J)neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a (K)new [e]creation. 16 And all who will follow this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the (L)Israel of God.
