Romans 2:28-29

CJB

NIV

28 For the real Jew is not merely Jewish outwardly: true circumcision is not only external and physical.
28 A person is not a Jew who is one only outwardly, nor is circumcision merely outward and physical.
29 On the contrary, the real Jew is one inwardly; and true circumcision is of the heart, spiritual not literal; so that his praise comes not from other people but from God.
29 No, a person is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a person’s praise is not from other people, but from God.
