So then, what about troublemakers who try to get others to be circumcised? I wish they would go the whole way! I wish they would cut off everything that marks them as men!

恨不得那搅乱你们的人把自己割绝了。

恨不得那骚扰你们的人把自己阉割了。

恨不得那骚扰你们的人把自己阉割了。

我恨不得那些搅扰你们的人把自己阉了！

我恨不得那些扰乱你们的人把自己阉割了！

我真希望那些搅乱你们的人把自己阉割了！

恨不得那攪亂你們的人把自己割絕了。

恨不得那騷擾你們的人把自己閹割了。

恨不得那騷擾你們的人把自己閹割了。

我恨不得那些攪擾你們的人把自己閹了！

我恨不得那些擾亂你們的人把自己閹割了！

我巴不得那些攪亂你們的也自己閹割！

我真希望那些攪亂你們的人把自己閹割了！

彼亂爾者、何若自閹為愈也、○

誠願亂爾者見絕也、

惟願亂爾者見絕也、○

嗟夫、彼以割禮為號召、而圖搖動爾之信心者、曷不進而自閹其身乎？

As for those agitators, I wish they would go the whole way and emasculate themselves!

I wish those who unsettle you would emasculate themselves!

I just wish that those troublemakers who want to mutilate you by circumcision would mutilate themselves.

I wish those who are disturbing you might also let themselves be mutilated!

I wish that those who are troubling you would even emasculate themselves.

I could wish that those who trouble you would even cut themselves off!

I would that they that unsettle you would even go beyond circumcision.

I wish those who are disturbing you might also get themselves castrated!

I would they were even cut off which trouble you.

I wish those agitators would go so far as to castrate themselves!

I wish that those who disturb you would cut themselves off.

The Lord makes me certain that you will see the truth of this. The one who has gotten you all mixed up will have to pay the price. This will happen no matter who has done it.

Warn anyone who tries to get believers to separate from one another. Warn that person more than once. After that, have nothing to do with them.

God will judge those outside. Scripture says,“ Get rid of that evil person!”( Deuteronomy 17:7; 19:19; 21:21; 22:21, 24; 24:7)

Joshua said to Achan,“ Why have you brought this trouble on us? The Lord will bring trouble on you today.” Then all the people killed Achan by throwing stones at him. They also killed the rest of his family with stones. They burned all of them up.

We have heard that some of our people came to you and caused trouble. You were upset by what they said. But we had given them no authority to go.

“ Say to them,‘ Suppose a man in your family line is“ unclean.” And suppose he comes near the sacred offerings. They are the offerings the Israelites set apart to honor me. That man must not be allowed to serve me as a priest. That applies for all time to come. I am the Lord.

Then the Pharisees replied,“ When you were born, you were already deep in sin. How dare you talk like that to us!” And they threw him out of the synagogue.

This matter came up because some people had slipped in among us. They had pretended to be believers. They wanted to find out about the freedom we have because we belong to Christ Jesus. They wanted to make us slaves again.

That is why the Israelites can’t stand up against their enemies. They turn their backs and run. That’s because I have decided to let them be destroyed. You must destroy the things you took that had been set apart to me. If you do not, I will not be with you anymore.

Certain people came down from Judea to Antioch. Here is what they were teaching the believers.“ Moses commanded you to be circumcised,” they said.“ If you aren’t, you can’t be saved.”But Paul and Barnabas didn’t agree with this. They argued strongly with them. So Paul and Barnabas were appointed to go up to Jerusalem. Some other believers were chosen to go with them. They were told to ask the apostles and elders about this question.

For seven days eat bread made without yeast. On the first day remove the yeast from your homes. For the next seven days, anyone who eats anything with yeast in it must be separated from Israel.

Suppose a person makes perfume in the same way. And suppose that person puts it on someone who is not a priest. Then that person must be separated from their people.’ ”

When Ananias heard this, he fell down and died. All who heard what had happened were filled with fear.

But suppose even we should preach a different“ good news.” Suppose even an angel from heaven should preach it. Suppose it is different from the good news we gave you. Then let anyone who does that be cursed by God.I have already said it. Now I will say it again. Suppose someone preaches a“ good news” that is different from what you accepted. That person should be cursed by God.

Peter asked her,“ How could you agree to test the Spirit of the Lord? Listen! You can hear the steps of the men who buried your husband. They are at the door. They will carry you out also.”

Any male who has not been circumcised will be separated from his people. He has broken my covenant.”
