¹⁸ If a man was already circumcised when he was called, he should not undo his circumcision. If a man was without circumcision when he was called, he should not be circumcised. ¹⁹ ·It is not important if a man is circumcised or not [^LCircumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing]. The important thing is ·obeying [keeping] God’s commands. ²⁰ Each one of you should stay ·the way you were [in the situation you were in] when God called you.
