²⁹ But ^(A)he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and ^(B)circumcision is of the heart, by the ^(C)Spirit, not by the letter; ^(D)and his praise is not from people, but from God.

²² For I joyfully agree with the law of God ^[a]in ^(A)the inner person,

³³ “For ^(A)this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” declares the Lord: “^(B)I will put My law within them and write it on their heart; and ^(C)I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

¹⁶ Therefore we ^(A)do not lose heart, but though our outer person is decaying, yet our ^(B)inner person is ^(C)being renewed day by day.

¹⁶ that He would grant you, according to ^(A)the riches of His glory, to be ^(B)strengthened with power through His Spirit in ^(C)the inner ^[a]self,

¹⁹ and to know ^(A)the love of Christ which ^(B)surpasses knowledge, that you may be ^(C)filled to all the ^(D)fullness of God.

^20 (E)Now to Him who is ^(F)able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, ^(G)according to the power that works within us,

¹⁹ because ^(A)that which is known about God is evident ^[a]within them; for God made it evident to them.
