Galatians 6:14-16 GW ...But it's unthinkable that I could ever brag about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. By his cross my relationship to the world and its relationship to me have been crucified. (15) Certainly, it doesn't matter whether a person is circumcised or not. Rather, what matters is being a new creation. (16) Peace and mercy will come to rest on all those who conform to this principle. They are the Israel of God.
Please note verse 15 teaches the important thing is becoming a "New Creation." That's what faith in (and following) the words of God's Son makes you, a New Creation. (John 8:31-32) They also become the true "Israel of God" as brought out in verse 16. You can know you are part of God's New Creation, because you personally know what Jesus taught and have faith in God's promises. (Isa 11:1-12)
Galatians 6:14-16 NWT ...Never may it occur that I should boast, except in the torture stake of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom the world has been impaled to me and I to the world. 15 For neither is circumcision anything nor is uncircumcision, but a new creation [is something]. 16 And all those who will walk orderly by this rule of conduct, upon them be peace and mercy, even upon the Israel of God.
Galatians 6:14-16 CEV ...But I will never brag about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. Because of his cross, the world is dead as far as I am concerned, and I am dead as far as the world is concerned. (15) It doesn't matter if you are circumcised or not. All that matters is that you are a new person. (16) If you follow this rule, you will belong to God's true people. God will treat you with undeserved kindness and will bless you with peace.
Galatians 6:14-16 LITV ...But may it never be for me to boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. (15) For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision has any strength nor uncircumcision, but a new creation. (16) And as many as shall walk by this rule, peace and mercy be on them and on the Israel of 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.
