Romans 2:19-25
19and are confidentG3982 that you yourselfG4572 are a guideG3595 to peopleG5185 whoG5185 areG5185 blindG5185, a lightG5457 to thoseG3588 in darknessG4655, 20a 1correctorG3810 of the foolishG878, a teacherG1320 of 2the immatureG3516, possessingG2192 in the LawG3551 3the embodimentG3446 of knowledgeG1108 and of the truthG225-- 21you, thereforeG3767, 4who teachG1321 someoneG2087 elseG2087, do you not teachG1321 yourselfG4572? You who 5preachG2784 that one is not to stealG2813, do you stealG2813? 22You who sayG3004 that one is not to commitG3431 adulteryG3431, do you commitG3431 adulteryG3431? You who loatheG948 idolsG1497, do you 6robG2416 templesG2416? 23You whoG3739 7boastG2744 8in the LawG3551, throughG1223 your breakingG3847 the LawG3551, do you dishonorG818 GodG2316? 24For “9the nameG3686 of GodG2316 is blasphemedG987 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484 10becauseG1223 of you,” justG2531 asG2531 it is writtenG1125.
25For indeedG3303 circumcisionG4061 isG5623 ofG5623 valueG5623 ifG1437 you 11practiceG4238 12the LawG3551; but ifG1437 you are a violatorG3848 13of the LawG3551, 14your circumcisionG4061 has turnedG1096 intoG1096 uncircumcisionG203.
