Galatians 6:11-13

International Standard Version

A Final Warning against Circumcision

¹¹ Look at how large these letters are because I am writing with my own hand! ¹² These people who want to impress others by their external appearance^[a] are trying to force you to be circumcised, simply to avoid being persecuted for the cross of the Messiah.^{[b] 13} Why, not even those who are circumcised obey the Law! They simply want you to be circumcised so that they can boast about your external appearance.^[c]
