²⁵ For indeed circumcision is of value if you ^(A)practice ^[a]the Law, but if you are a transgressor ^[b]of the Law, ^(B)your circumcision has become uncircumcision. ^26 (C)So if ^(D)the ^[c]uncircumcised man ^(E)observes the righteous requirements of the Law, will not his uncircumcision be counted as circumcision? ²⁷ And ^(F)he who is physically uncircumcised, if he ^[d]fulfills the Law, will he not ^(G)judge you who, through the letter of the Law and circumcision, are a transgressor ^[e]of the Law? ²⁸ For ^(H)he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh. ²⁹ But ^(I)he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and ^(J)circumcision is that which is of the heart, by the ^(K)Spirit, not by the letter; ^(L)and his praise is not from men, but from God.
