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 btheir thoughts ||the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;) 16cIn the day when God shall judge the secrets of men dby Jesus Christ eaccording to my gospel.

17Behold, fthou art called a Jew, and grestest in the law, and hmakest thy boast of God, 18And iknowest his will, and ||kapprovest the things that are more excellent, lbeing instructed out of the law; 19And mart 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 nthe form of oknowledge and of the truth in the law. 21pThou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal? 22qThou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, rdost thou commit sacrilege?
