Romans 2:29 CEV To be a real Jew you must obey the Law [be one who obeys the law of love; or, the new law of Christ - John 13:34-35; Gal 6:2]. True circumcision is something that happens deep in your heart, (Gal 3:29; Rom 9:8) not something done to your body. And besides, you should want praise from God and not from humans.

Romans 2:29 GNB Rather, the real Jew is the person who is a Jew on the inside, [one who obeys the law of love; or, the new law of Christ - John 13:34-35; Gal 6:2] that is, whose heart has been circumcised, (Gal 3:29; Rom 9:8) and this is the work of God's Spirit, not of the written Law. Such a person receives praise from God, not from human beings.

Romans 2:29 ESV But a Jew is one inwardly, [one who obeys the law of love; or, the new law of Christ - John 13:34-35; Gal 6:2] and circumcision is a matter of the heart, (Gal 3:29; Rom 9:8) by the Spirit, not by the letter. His praise is not from man but from God.

You will note the reference windows often include more than one translation of the Bible. The reason is to strive to gain the best possible understanding of the original Hebrew and Greek. Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
