Egypt, and Judah, and Edom, and the children of Ammon, and Moab, and all that are in the utmost corners, that dwell in the wilderness: for all these nations are uncircumcised, and all the house of Israel are uncircumcised in the heart.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
The verse 26 is found in chapter 9 of Jeremiah. The warning against boasting in wisdom, strength, or wealth establishes a theological hierarchy of values. The true reason for boasting is knowing Yahweh and understanding his character. Physical circumcision also does not guarantee faithfulness: external religious identity does not eliminate the need for inner obedience.

A Egipto, y a Judá, y a Edom, y a los hijos de Ammón y de Moab, y a todos los arrinconados en el postrer rincón, que moran en el desierto; porque todas las gentes tienen prepucio, y toda la casa de Israel tiene prepucio en el corazón.
a Egipto, a Judá, a Edom, a los hijos de Amón, a Moab y a todos los que se rapan las sienes y habitan en el desierto. Porque todas las naciones son incircuncisas, y toda la casa de Israel es incircuncisa de corazón».
L'Egypte, Juda, Edom, les enfants d'Ammon, Moab, Tous ceux qui se rasent les coins de la barbe, Ceux qui habitent dans le désert; Car toutes les nations sont incirconcises, Et toute la maison d'Israël a le coeur incirconcis.
d’Egitto, e di Giuda, e di Edom, e de’ figliuoli di Ammon, e di Moab, e di tutti quelli che si tondono i canti delle tempie, i quali abitano nel deserto; perciocchè tutte queste genti sono incirconcise; tutta la casa d’Israele ancora è incirconcisa di cuore
Ao Egito, e a Judá, e a Edom, e aos filhos de Amom, e a Moabe, e a todos os que cortam os cantos do seu cabelo, que habitam no deserto; porque todas as nações são incircuncisas, e toda a casa de Israel é incircuncisa de coração.
就是 埃及 、 猶大 、 以東 、 亞捫 人、 摩押 人,和住曠野所有剃鬢髮的人;因為列國都未受割禮, 以色列 全家心中也未受割禮。」
