    25 For circumcision truly profits if you keep the law: but if you are a breaker of the law, your circumcision is made uncircumcision.

    26 Therefore if the uncircumcised keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted as circumcision?

    27 And shall not the uncircumcised which is by nature, if it fulfills the law, judge you, who by the letter and circumcision transgress the law?

    28 For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh:

    29 But he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.
