¹¹ And I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision, why do I still suffer persecution? Then the offense of the cross has ceased.

¹¹ But if I, brothers,[1] still preach[2] circumcision, why am I still being persecuted? In that case the offense of the cross has been removed.

¹¹ Dear brothers and sisters, if I were still preaching that you must be circumcised-as some say I do-why am I still being persecuted? If I were no longer preaching salvation through the cross of Christ, no one would be offended.

¹¹ But I, brethren , if I still preach circumcision , why am I still persecuted ? Then the stumbling block of the cross has been abolished .
