12: For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;

13: (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

14: For 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:

15: Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)

16: In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

17: Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God,

18: And knowest his will, and approvest 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 them which are in darkness,

20: An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.

21: Thou therefore which 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 abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?

23: Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?

24: For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.

25: For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision.

26: Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?

27: And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law?

28: For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

29: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
