11 Look how big these letters are when it’s my own handwriting. 12 There’s so many people that want to look good in earthly terms and they’re the ones trying to persuade you that you have to fulfil all of Mosheh’ rules—they don’t want to be persecuted concerning the messiah dying on a stake. 13 Even those who are circumcised don’t obey all the rules, but they’d still like for your men to be circumcised so that they can claim them as followers. 14 As for me, may I never boast except about our master, Yeshua the messiah whose life was cut off on the stake. Through him, it’s like the entire world has been cut off from me, and I have been cut off from the world. 15 Because obeying Mosheh’ law is nothing, and not needing to obey it is nothing, but being a new creation is everything. 16 and as many people as follow that principle, may peace and mercy be on them and on God’s Israel.

17 As for the rest of their troubles, don’t bother me with them because I carry the marks on my body of someone who follows Yeshua.

18 May the grace from our master Yeshua the messiah be with your spirit, brothers and sisters. Let it be so.
