Galatians 5:2-6 Here is what I am saying to you: If you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ can do you no good.

Williams⁽ⁱ⁾ ² Here is what I am saying to you: If you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ can do you no good. ³ I again insist that if any man lets himself be circumcised, he is under obligation to obey the whole law. ⁴ You people, whoever you are among you, who try to get into right standing with God, through law have cut yourselves off from Christ, you have missed the way of God's favor. ⁵ For we, by the Spirit, are awaiting the hoped-for blessing which our right standing with God will bring us. ⁶ For in union with Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor lack of it counts for anything; but only faith that is spurred on to action by love.
