11 Remember that once you were not Jewish physically. Those who called themselves |the circumcised| because of what they had done to their bodies called you |the uncircumcised.| 12 Also, at that time you were without Christ. You were excluded from citizenship in Israel, and the pledges [God made in his] promise were foreign to you. You had no hope and were in the world without God. 13 But now through Christ Jesus you, who were once far away, have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
