17. Behold, thou doth call thyself a Jew and art supported by the law and doth glory in God
18. and dost know his will and approve the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law,
19. and art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of those who are in darkness,
20. an instructor of the ignorant, a teacher of children, who hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.
21. Thou, therefore, who teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? Thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?
22. Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? Thou that dost abhor idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?
23. Thou that makest thy boast of the law, with rebellion to the law doth thou dishonour God?
24. For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.
25. For circumcision verily profits if thou keep the law, but if thou art a rebel to the law, thy circumcision is made into a foreskin.
