53 Romans 2:1-29 ¹Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. ²But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things. ³And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? ⁴Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? ⁵But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; ⁶Who will render to every man according to his deeds: ⁷To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life: ⁸But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, ⁹Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile; ¹⁰But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile: ¹¹For there is no respect of persons with God. ¹²For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law; ¹³(For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. ¹⁴For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: ¹⁵Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;) ¹⁶In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

¹⁷Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God, ¹⁸And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law; ¹⁹And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness, ²⁰An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law. ²¹Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal? ²²Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege? ²³Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God? ²⁴For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written. ²⁵For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision. ²⁶Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision? ²⁷And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law? ²⁸For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: ²⁹But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.(KJV)

53 Romans 2:1-29 ¹Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. ²But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things. ³And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? ⁴Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? ⁵But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; ⁶Who will render to every man according to his deeds: ⁷To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life: ⁸But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, ⁹Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile; ¹⁰But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile: ¹¹For there is no respect of persons with God. ¹²For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law; ¹³(For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. ¹⁴For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: ¹⁵Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing 1 another;) ¹⁶In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

¹⁷Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God, ¹⁸And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law; ¹⁹And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness, ²⁰An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law. ²¹Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal? ²²Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege? ²³Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God? ²⁴For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written. ²⁵For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision. ²⁶Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision? ²⁷And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law? ²⁸For he is not a Jew, which is 1 outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: ²⁹But he is a Jew, which is 1 inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.(KJV/NC)

53 Romans 2:1-29 ¹Wherefore thou art without excuse, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judges another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest dost practise the same things. ²And we know that the judgment of God is according to truth against them that practise such things. ³And reckonest thou this, O man, who judgest them that practise such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? ⁴Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? ⁵but after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up for thyself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; ⁶who will render to every man according to his works: ⁷to them that by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and incorruption, eternal life: ⁸but unto them that are factious, and obey not the truth, but obey unrighteousness, shall be wrath and indignation, ⁹tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that worketh evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Greek; ¹⁰but glory and honor and peace to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek: ¹¹for there is no respect of persons with God. ¹²For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without the law: and as many as have sinned under the law shall be judged by the law; ¹³for not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified: ¹⁴(for when Gentiles that have not the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are the law unto themselves; ¹⁵in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness therewith, and their thoughts one with another accusing or else excusing them); ¹⁶in the day when God shall judge the secrets of men, according to my gospel, by Jesus Christ. ¹⁷But if thou bearest the name of a Jew, and restest upon the law, and gloriest in God, ¹⁸and knowest his will, and approvest the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law, ¹⁹and art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them that are in darkness, ²⁰a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of babes, having in the law the form of knowledge and of the truth; ²¹thou therefore that teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal? ²²thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou rob temples? ²³thou who gloriest in the law, through thy transgression of the law dishonorest thou God? ²⁴For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you, even as it is written. ²⁵For circumcision indeed profiteth, if thou be a doer of the law: but if thou be a transgressor of the law, thy circumcision is become uncircumcision. ²⁶If therefore the uncircumcision keep the ordinances of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be reckoned for circumcision? ²⁷and shall not the uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who with the letter and circumcision art a transgressor of the law? ²⁸For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh: ²⁹but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.(ASV)

53 Romans 2:1-29 ¹THEREFORE you are inexcusable, O man, to judge your neighbor; for in judging your neighbor, you condemn yourself; for even you who judge practice the same things yourself. ²But we know that the judgment of God is rightly against those who commit such things. ³What do you think, O man? Do you think that you who judge those who practice such things, while you commit them yourself, will escape the judgment of God? ⁴Do you stand against the riches of his goodness and forbearance, and the opportunity which he has given you, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance? ⁵Because of the hardness and impenitence of your heart you are laying up for yourself a treasure of wrath for the day of wrath and the revelation of the righteous judgment of God, ⁶Who will render to every man according to his deeds: ⁷To those who continue patiently in good works, seeking glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life; ⁸But to those who are stubborn and do not obey the truth, but obey iniquity, he will render indignation and wrath; ⁹He will render suffering and affliction, for every man who does evil, for the Jews first, and also for the Arameans; ¹⁰But glory, honor and peace for every one who does good, to the Jews first, and also to the Arameans; ¹¹For there is no respect of persons with God. ¹²For those who have sinned without law shall also perish without law; and those who have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law, ¹³For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but it is the doers of the law who shall be justified. ¹⁴For if the Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these having not the law are a law to themselves. ¹⁵And they show the work of the law written on their hearts; and their conscience also bears them witness, when their thoughts either rebuke or defend one another, ¹⁶In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men according to my gospel by Jesus Christ.

¹⁷¶ Now if you who are called a Jew trust on the law and are proud of God, ¹⁸And because you know his will and know the things which must be observed, which you have learned from the law, ¹⁹And you have confidence in yourself that you are a guide of the blind and a light to them who are in darkness, ²⁰An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of children, you are the pattern of knowledge and of truth as embodied in the law. ²¹Now, therefore, you teach others but fail to teach yourself. You preach that men should not steal, yet you steal. ²²You say, Men must not commit adultery, yet you commit adultery. You despise idols, yet you rob the sanctuary. ²³You are proud of the law but you dishonor God by breaking the law. ²⁴For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written. ²⁵For circumcision is profitable only if you keep the law; but if you break the law, then circumcision becomes uncircumcision. ²⁶Therefore, if the uncircumcision keep the statutes of the law, behold would not the uncircumcision be counted for circumcision? ²⁷And the uncircumcision which fulfills the law naturally, will condemn you who, while in possession of the scripture and circumcision, transgress the law. ²⁸For it is not the one who is outwardly a Jew who is the real Jew; neither is circumcision that which is seen in the flesh. ²⁹But a real Jew is one who is inwardly so, and circumcision is of the heart, spiritually and not literally; whose praise is not from men but from God. (LAM)

53 Romans 2:1-29 ¹Therefore you have no excuse, O man, whoever you are, when you judge another; for in passing judgment upon him you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things. ²We know that the judgment of God rightly falls upon those who do such things. ³Do you suppose, O man, that when you judge those who do such things and yet do them yourself, you will escape the judgment of God? ⁴Or do you presume upon the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience? Do you not know that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance? ⁵But by your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God's righteous judgment will be revealed. ⁶For he will render to every man according to his works: ⁷to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life; ⁸but for those who are factious and do not obey the truth, but obey wickedness, there will be wrath and fury. ⁹There will be tribulation and distress for every human being who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek, ¹⁰but glory and honor and peace for every one who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek. ¹¹For God shows no partiality.

¹²All who have sinned without the law will also perish without the law, and all who have sinned under the law will be judged by the law. ¹³For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law who will be justified. ¹⁴When Gentiles who have not the law do by nature what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. ¹⁵They show that what the law requires is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness and their conflicting thoughts accuse or perhaps excuse them ¹⁶on that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus.

¹⁷But if you call yourself a Jew and rely upon the law and boast of your relation to God ¹⁸and know his will and approve what is excellent, because you are instructed in the law, ¹⁹and if you are sure that you are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness, ²⁰a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of children, having in the law the embodiment of knowledge and truth-- ²¹you then who teach others, will you not teach yourself? While you preach against stealing, do you steal? ²²You who say that one must not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? ²³You who boast in the law, do you dishonor God by breaking the law? ²⁴For, as it is written, "The name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you."

²⁵Circumcision indeed is of value if you obey the law; but if you break the law, your circumcision becomes uncircumcision. ²⁶So, if a man who is uncircumcised keeps the precepts of the law, will not his uncircumcision be regarded as circumcision? ²⁷Then those who are physically uncircumcised but keep the law will condemn you who have the written code and circumcision but break the law. ²⁸For he is not a real Jew who is one outwardly, nor is true circumcision something external and physical. ²⁹He is a Jew who is one inwardly, and real circumcision is a matter of the heart, spiritual and not literal. His praise is not from men but from God.(RSV)

53 Romans 2:1-29 ¹You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things. ²Now we know that God's judgment against those who do such things is based on truth. ³So when you, a mere man, pass judgment on them and yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God's judgment? ⁴Or do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness, tolerance and patience, not realizing that God's kindness leads you toward repentance?

⁵But because of your stubbornness and your unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath against yourself for the day of God's wrath, when his righteous judgment will be revealed. ⁶God "will give to each person according to what he has done." ⁷To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, he will give eternal life. ⁸But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger. ⁹There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile; ¹⁰but glory, honor and peace for everyone who does good: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. ¹¹For God does not show favoritism.

¹²All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law. ¹³For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God's sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous. ¹⁴(Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law, ¹⁵since they show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts now accusing, now even defending them.) ¹⁶This will take place on the day when God will judge men's secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares.

¹⁷Now you, if you call yourself a Jew; if you rely on the law and brag about your relationship to God; ¹⁸if you know his will and approve of what is superior because you are instructed by the law; ¹⁹if you are convinced that you are a guide for the blind, a light for those who are in the dark, ²⁰an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of infants, because you have in the law the embodiment of knowledge and truth -- ²¹you, then, who teach others, do you not teach yourself? You who preach against stealing, do you steal? ²²You who say that people should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? ²³You who brag about the law, do you dishonor God by breaking the law? ²⁴As it is written: "God's name is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you."

²⁵Circumcision has value if you observe the law, but if you break the law, you have become as though you had not been circumcised. ²⁶If those who are not circumcised keep the law's requirements, will they not be regarded as though they were circumcised? ²⁷The one who is not circumcised physically and yet obeys the law will condemn you who, even though you have the written code and circumcision, are a lawbreaker.

²⁸A man is not a Jew if he is only one outwardly, nor is circumcision merely outward and physical. ²⁹No, a man is a Jew if he is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a man's praise is not from men, but from God.(NIV)

53 Romans 2:1-29 ¹Therefore you are without excuse, O man, whoever you are who judge. For in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself. For you who judge practice the same things. ²We know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things. ³Do you think this, O man who judges those who practice such things, and do the same, that you will escape the judgment of God? ⁴Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance? ⁵But according to your hardness and unrepentant heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath, revelation, and of the righteous judgment of God; ⁶who 'will pay back to everyone according to their works:' ⁷to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and incorruptibility, eternal life; ⁸but to those who are self-seeking, and don't obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, will be wrath and indignation, ⁹oppression and anguish, on every soul of man who works evil, on the Jew first, and also on the Greek.

¹⁰But glory and honor and peace to every man who works good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. ¹¹For there is no partiality with God. ¹²For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without the law. As many as have sinned under the law will be judged by the law. ¹³For it isn't the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law will be justified ¹⁴(for when Gentiles who don't have the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are a law to themselves, ¹⁵in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience testifying with them, and their thoughts among themselves accusing or else excusing them) ¹⁶in the day when God will judge the secrets of men, according to my Gospel, by Jesus Christ.

¹⁷Indeed you bear the name of a Jew, and rest on the law, and glory in God, ¹⁸and know his will, and approve the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law, ¹⁹and are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light to those who are in darkness, ²⁰a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of babies, having in the law the form of knowledge and of the truth. ²¹You therefore who teach another, don't you teach yourself? You who preach that a man shouldn't steal, do you steal? ²²You who say a man shouldn't commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? ²³You who glory in the law, through your disobedience of the law do you dishonor God? ²⁴For 'the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you,' just as it is written. ²⁵For circumcision indeed profits, if you are a doer of the law, but if you are a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision. ²⁶If therefore the uncircumcised keep the ordinances of the law, won't his uncircumcision be accounted as circumcision? ²⁷Won't the uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfills the law, judge you, who with the letter and circumcision are a transgressor of the law? ²⁸For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh; ²⁹but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.(WEB)

53 Romans 2:1-29 ¹Therefore you are without excuse, O man, whoever you are who judge. For in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself. For you who judge practice the same things. ²We know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things. ³Do you think this, O man who judges those who practice such things, and do the same, that you will escape the judgment of God? ⁴Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance? ⁵But according to your hardness and unrepentant heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath, revelation, and of the righteous judgment of God; ⁶who 'will pay back to everyone according to their works:' ⁷to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory, honor, and incorruptibility, eternal life; ⁸but to those who are self-seeking, and don't obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, will be wrath and indignation, ⁹oppression and anguish, on every soul of man who works evil, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

¹⁰But glory, honor, and peace go to every man who works good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. ¹¹For there is no partiality with God. ¹²For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without the law. As many as have sinned under the law will be judged by the law. ¹³For it isn't the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law will be justified ¹⁴(for when Gentiles who don't have the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are a law to themselves, ¹⁵in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience testifying with them, and their thoughts among themselves accusing or else excusing them) ¹⁶in the day when God will judge the secrets of men, according to my Good News, by Yeshua the Messiah.

¹⁷Indeed you bear the name of a Jew, and rest on the law, and glory in God, ¹⁸and know his will, and approve the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law, ¹⁹and are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light to those who are in darkness, ²⁰a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of babies, having in the law the form of knowledge and of the truth. ²¹You therefore who teach another, don't you teach yourself? You who proclaim that a man shouldn't steal, do you steal? ²²You who say a man shouldn't commit adultery. Do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? ²³You who glory in the law, through your disobedience of the law do you dishonor God? ²⁴For 'the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you,' just as it is written. ²⁵For circumcision indeed profits, if you are a doer of the law, but if you are a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision. ²⁶If therefore the uncircumcised keep the ordinances of the law, won't his uncircumcision be accounted as circumcision? ²⁷Won't the uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfills the law, judge you, who with the letter and circumcision are a transgressor of the law? ²⁸For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh; ²⁹but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.(WEB/HNV)

53 Romans 2:1-29 ¹THEREFORE, you are inexcusable, oh man, to judge your neighbor; for in judging your neighbor, you condemn yourself; for even you who judge practice the same things yourself. ²But we know that the judgment of God is rightly against those who commit such things. ³What do you think, oh man? Do you think that you who judge those who practice such things, while you commit them yourself, will escape the judgment of God? ⁴Do you stand against the riches of his goodness and forbearance, and the opportunity which he has given you, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance? ⁵Because of the hardness and impenitence of your heart you are laying up for yourself a treasure of wrath for the day of wrath and the revelation of the righteous judgment of God, ⁶Who will render to every man according to his deeds: ⁷To those who continue patiently in good works, seeking glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life; ⁸But to those who are stubborn and do not obey the truth, but obey iniquity, he will render indignation and wrath; ⁹He will render suffering and affliction, for every man who does evil, for the Jews first, and also for the Arameans; ¹⁰But glory, honor and peace for everyone who does good, to the Jews first, and also to the Arameans; ¹¹For there is no respect of persons with God. ¹²For those who have sinned without law will also perish without law; and those who have sinned in the law will be judged by the law, ¹³For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but it is the doers of the law who will be justified. ¹⁴For if the Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these not having the law are a law to themselves. ¹⁵And they show the work of the law written on their hearts; and their conscience also bears them witness, when their thoughts either rebuke or defend one another, ¹⁶In the day when God will judge the secrets of men according to my gospel by Jesus Messiah.

¹⁷Now if you who are called a Jew trust on the law and are proud of God, ¹⁸And because you know his will and know the things which must be observed, which you have learned from the law, ¹⁹And you have confidence in yourself that you are a guide of the blind and a light to those who are in darkness, ²⁰An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of children, you are the pattern of knowledge and of truth as embodied in the law. ²¹Now, therefore, you teach others but fail to teach yourself. You preach that men should not steal, yet you steal. ²²You say, Men must not commit adultery, yet you commit adultery. You despise idols, yet you rob the sanctuary. ²³You are proud of the law but you dishonor God by breaking the law. ²⁴For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written. ²⁵For circumcision is profitable only if you keep the law; but if you break the law, then circumcision becomes uncircumcision. ²⁶Therefore, if the uncircumcision keep the statutes of the law, look would not the uncircumcision be counted for circumcision? ²⁷And the uncircumcision which fulfills the law naturally, will condemn you who, while in possession of the scripture and circumcision, transgress the law. ²⁸For it is not the one who is outwardly a Jew who is the real Jew; neither is circumcision that which is seen in the flesh. ²⁹But a real Jew is one who is inwardly so, and circumcision is of the heart, spiritually and not literally; whose praise is not from men but from God.
