Romans 2:17
NASB
Rom 2:17
&
But if you bear the name "Jew" and rely upon the Law and boast in God,
Rom 2:18
&
and know {His} will and approve the things that are essential, being instructed out of the Law,
Rom 2:19
&
and are confident that you yourself are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,
Rom 2:20
&
a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of the immature, having in the Law the embodiment of knowledge and of the truth,
Rom 2:21
&
you, therefore, who teach another, do you not teach yourself? You who preach that one shall not steal, do you steal?
Rom 2:22
&
You who say that one should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?
Rom 2:23
&
You who boast in the Law, through your breaking the Law, do you dishonor God?
Rom 2:24
&
For "THE NAME OF GOD IS BLASPHEMED AMONG THE GENTILES BECAUSE OF YOU," just as it is written.
