Galatians 6:13-18

13For those who 1are circumcised do not even 2keep 3the Law themselves, but they want to have you circumcised so that they may 4boast in your flesh. 14But 5 6far be it from me to boast, 7except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, 8through 9which the world has been crucified to me, and 10I to the world. 15For 11neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a 12new 13creation. 16And all who will follow this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the 14Israel of God.

17From now on let no one cause trouble for me, for I bear on my body the 15 16marks of Jesus.

18 17The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be 18with your spirit, 19brothers and sisters. Amen.
