| 12 | Those who want to make a good impression outwardly are trying to compel you to be circumcised. They only do this to avoid persecution for the cross of Christ. | As 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. | As many as desire to make a good impression in the flesh compel you to be circumcised, just so they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ. | As many as desire to make a fair show in the flesh, they compel you to be circumcised; only that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ. |
| 13 | For the circumcised do not even keep the law themselves, yet they want you to be circumcised that they may boast in your flesh. | For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh. | For even they who receive circumcision don’t keep the law themselves, but they desire to have you circumcised, so that they may boast in your flesh. | For not even they who receive circumcision do themselves keep the law; but they desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh. |

| 15 | For neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything. What counts is a new creation. | For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. | For in Christ Jesus neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation. | For neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. |

| 17 | From now on let no one cause me trouble, for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus. | From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus. | From now on, let no one cause me any trouble, for I bear the marks of the Lord Jesus branded on my body. | Henceforth let no man trouble me; for I bear branded on my body the marks of Jesus. |

Amen. | The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen. | The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brethren. Amen. |
