¹⁴ But far be it from me to boast ^(A)except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which^[a] the world ^(B)has been crucified to me, and I to the world. ¹⁵ For ^(C)neither circumcision counts for anything, nor uncircumcision, but ^(D)a new creation. ¹⁶ And as for all who walk by this rule, ^(E)peace and mercy be upon them, and upon ^(F)the Israel of God.

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

^18 (G)The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be ^(H)with your spirit, brothers. Amen.

Come to Me, and I Will Give You Rest

^25 (A)At that time Jesus declared, “I thank you, Father, ^(B)Lord of heaven and earth, that ^(C)you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and ^(D)revealed them to little children; ²⁶ yes, Father, for such was your ^(E)gracious will.^{[a] 27 (F)}All things have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows the Son ^(G)except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone ^(H)to whom the Son chooses to reveal him. ^28 (I)Come to ^(J)me, all who labour and are ^(K)heavy laden, and I will give you rest. ²⁹ Take my yoke upon you, and ^(L)learn from me, for I am ^(M)gentle and lowly in heart, and ^(N)you will find rest for your souls. ³⁰ For ^(O)my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
