³ But not even Titus who was with me, being a Greek, was made to undergo circumcision:

³ Paul had a desire for him to go with him, and he gave him circumcision because of the Jews who were in those parts: for they all had knowledge that his father was a Greek.

² See, I Paul say to you, that if you undergo circumcision, Christ will be of no use to you.

³ Yes, I give witness again to every man who undergoes circumcision, that he will have to keep all the law.

⁴ You are cut off from Christ, you who would have righteousness by the law; you are turned away from grace.

⁵ For we through the Spirit by faith are waiting for the hope of righteousness.

⁶ Because in Christ Jesus, having circumcision or not having circumcision are equally of no profit; but only faith working through love.

²⁰ And to the Jews I was as a Jew, so that I might give the good news to them; to those under the law I was the same, not as being myself under the law, but so that I might give the good news to those under the law.

²¹ To those without the law I was as one without the law, not as being without law to God, but as under law to Christ, so that I might give the good news to those without the law.

²⁴ Because we have knowledge that some who went from us have been troubling you with their words, putting your souls in doubt; to whom we gave no such order;

¹³ I had no rest in my spirit because Titus my brother was not there: so I went away from them, and came into Macedonia.
