Jeremiah 4:4
Holman Christian Standard Bible
4 Circumcise yourselves to the Lord;
remove the foreskin of your hearts,(A)
men of Judah and residents of Jerusalem.
Otherwise, My wrath will break out like fire
and burn with no one to extinguish it(B)
because of your evil deeds.
Romans 2:28-29
Holman Christian Standard Bible
28 For a person is not a Jew who is one outwardly,(A) and true circumcision is not something visible in the flesh. 29 On the contrary, a person is a Jew who is one inwardly,(B) and circumcision is of the heart—by the Spirit, not the letter.[a](C) That man’s praise[b] is not from men but from God.(D)

New International Version
28 A person is not a Jew who is one only outwardly,(A) nor is circumcision merely outward and physical.(B) 29 No, a person is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart,(C) by the Spirit,(D) not by the written code.(E) Such a person’s praise is not from other people, but from God.(F)
