13. And yet, neither do they themselves, who are circumcised, keep the law. Instead, they want you to be circumcised, so that they may glory in your flesh.
14. But far be it from me to glory, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.
15. For in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision prevails in any way, but instead there is a new creature.
16. And whoever follows this rule: may peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel of God.
17. Concerning other matters, let no one trouble me. For I carry the stigmata of the Lord Jesus in my body.
18. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.
