Galatians 6:14

But may it not be from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

A Conservative Version

In The King James Version

But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.

In Context

13For not even those who have been circumcised themselves keep law, but they want you to be circumcised, so that they may boast in thy flesh.

15For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision avails anything nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.
