Verse Numbers
24
For the name of God is blasphemed on your account among the nations, according as it is written.
25
For circumcision indeed profits if thou keep [the] law; but if thou be a law-transgressor, thy circumcision is become uncircumcision.
26
If therefore the uncircumcision keep the requirements of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be reckoned for circumcision,
27
and uncircumcision by nature, fulfilling the law, judge thee, who, with letter and circumcision, [art] a law-transgressor?
28
For he is not a Jew who [is] one outwardly, neither that circumcision which is outward in flesh;
29
but he [is] a Jew [who is so] inwardly; and circumcision, of the heart, in spirit, not in letter; whose praise [is] not of men, but of God.
