11Ye see how large a
letter I have written unto you with mine own hand.  12As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, they constrain you
to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.  13For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep
the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.  14But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross
of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.
 15For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision
availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.  16And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and
mercy, and upon the Israel of God.  17From
henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.  18Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with
your spirit. Amen. (Galatians
6:11-18, King James
Version)
