 20an instructor of foolish, a teacher of babes, having the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law:
 21thou then that teachest another, dost thou not teach thyself? thou that preachest not to steal, dost thou steal?
 22thou that sayest not to commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?
 23Thou who boastest in law, through the transgression of the law dost thou dishonour God?
 24For the name of God on your account is blasphemed among the Gentiles, even as it is written.
 25For circumcision indeed profiteth if thou do law; but if thou be a transgressor of law, thy circumcision is become uncircumcision.
 26If then the uncircumcision keep the requirements of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be reckoned for circumcision,
 27and the natural uncircumcision, fulfilling the law, judge thee that in the way of letter and circumcision transgressest law?
 28For he that is outwardly a Jew is not [one], nor [is] that which is outward in flesh circumcision,
 29but he that [is so] hiddenly [is] a Jew, and circumcision of heart in spirit, not in letter, the praise of whom [is] not of men but of God. (Rom. 2:17‑29)
