Galatians 6:11-13
American Standard Version
11 See with how large letters I [a]write unto you with mine own hand. 12 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 [b]for the cross of Christ. 13 For not even they who [c]receive circumcision do themselves keep the law; but they desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.

New International Version
Not Circumcision but the New Creation
11 See what large letters I use as I write to you with my own hand!(A)
12 Those who want to impress people by means of the flesh(B) are trying to compel you to be circumcised.(C) The only reason they do this is to avoid being persecuted(D) for the cross of Christ. 13 Not even those who are circumcised keep the law,(E) yet they want you to be circumcised that they may boast about your circumcision in the flesh.(F)
