Galatians 6:11-18

Revised Geneva Translation

¹¹ You see how large the letters are which I have written to you with my own hand.

¹² As many as desire to have a fair appearance in the flesh, they urge you to be circumcised, only because they would not suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.

¹³ For they themselves who are circumcised do not keep the Law, but desire to have you circumcised, so that they might boast in your flesh.

¹⁴ But may it never be that I should boast in anything but the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ; whereby the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world!

¹⁵ For in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but a new creature.

¹⁶ And as many as walk according to this rule, peace shall be upon them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.

¹⁷ From henceforth let no one give me trouble. For I bear on my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.

¹⁸ Brothers, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.

(to the Galatians; written from Rome.)
