Romans 2:17-25 And since you claim the name of Jew, and find rest and satisfaction in the Law, and make your boast in God,

WNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ And since you claim the name of Jew, and find rest and satisfaction in the Law, and make your boast in God, ¹⁸ and know the supreme will, and can test things that differ--being a man who receives instruction from the Law-- ¹⁹ and have persuaded yourself that, as for you, you are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness, ²⁰ a schoolmaster for the dull and ignorant, a teacher of the young, because in the Law you possess an outline of real knowledge and an outline of the truth: ²¹ you then who teach your fellow man, do you refuse to teach yourself? You who cry out against stealing, are you yourself a thief? ²² You who forbid adultery, do you commit adultery? You who loathe idols, do you plunder their temples? ²³ You who make your boast in the Law, do you offend against its commands and so dishonour God? ²⁴ FOR THE NAME OF GOD IS BLASPHEMED AMONG THE GENTILE NATIONS BECAUSE OF YOU, as Holy Writ declares. ²⁵ Circumcision does indeed profit, if you obey the Law; but if you are a Law-breaker, the fact that you have been circumcised counts for nothing.
