Romans 2:24-26
New International Version
24 As it is written: “God’s name is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.”[a](A)
25 Circumcision has value if you observe the law,(B) but if you break the law, you have become as though you had not been circumcised.(C) 26 So then, if those who are not circumcised keep the law’s requirements,(D) will they not be regarded as though they were circumcised?(E)
