Galatians 6:16

Compare all

14 But God forbid that I should boast except in the ^across of our Lord Jesus Christ, by¹ whom the world has been crucified to me, and ^bI to the world.

15 For ^ain Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but a new creation.

16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel of God.

17 From now on let no one trouble me, for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.

18 Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
