The Jew Is Condemned by the Law

17 But if you bear the name “Jew” and arely 1upon the Law and boast in God,

18 and know His will and 1aapprove the things that are essential, being instructed out of the Law,

19 and are confident that you yourself are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,

20 a 1corrector of the foolish, a teacher of 2the immature, having in the Law athe embodiment of knowledge and of the truth,

21 you, therefore, awho teach another, do you not teach yourself? You who 1preach that one shall not steal, do you steal?

22 You who say that one should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you arob temples?

23 You who aboast 1in the Law, through your breaking the Law, do you dishonor God?

24 For “athe name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles bbecause of you,” just as it is written.
