Galatians 5:2-4

2 Indeed I, Paul, say to you that (A)if you become circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing. 3 And I testify again to every man who becomes circumcised (B)that he is [a]a debtor to keep the whole law. 4 (C)You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; (D)you have fallen from grace.

2 Look! I, (A)Paul, tell you that if you have yourselves (B)circumcised, Christ will be of no benefit to you. 3 And I (C)testify again to every man who has himself (D)circumcised, that he is obligated to (E)keep the whole Law. 4 You have been severed from Christ, you who [a]are seeking to be justified by the [b]Law; you have (F)fallen from grace.

Galatians 5:2-4
Amplified Bible
2 Notice, it is I, Paul, who tells you that if you receive circumcision [as a supposed requirement of salvation], Christ will be of no benefit to you [for you will lack the faith in Christ that is necessary for salvation]. 3 Once more I solemnly affirm to every man who receives circumcision [as a supposed requirement of salvation], that he is under obligation and required to keep the whole Law. 4 You have been severed from Christ, if you seek to be [a]justified [that is, declared free of the guilt of sin and its penalty, and placed in right standing with God] through the Law; you have fallen from grace [for you have lost your grasp on God’s unmerited favor and blessing].
