- In him you were also circumcised, in the putting off of the sinful nature, not with a circumcision done by the hands of men but with the circumcision done by Christ,
- having been buried with him in baptism and raised with him through your faith in the power of God, who raised him from the dead.
- When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins,
- having canceled the written code, with its regulations, that was against us and that stood opposed to us; he took it away, nailing it to the cross.
- And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.
