Romans 2:17-24
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
17 Now if you call yourself a Jew and rely on the law and boast of God(A) 18 and know his will and are able to discern what is important since you are instructed from the law,(B) 19 and if you are confident that you are a guide for the blind and a light for those in darkness,(C) 20 that you are a trainer of the foolish and teacher of the simple,(D) because in the law you have the formulation of knowledge and truth— 21 then you who teach another, are you failing to teach yourself? You who preach against stealing, do you steal?(E) 22 You who forbid adultery, do you commit adultery? You who detest idols, do you rob temples? 23 You who boast of the law, do you dishonor God by breaking the law? 24 (F)For, as it is written, “Because of you the name of God is reviled among the Gentiles.”[a]

Romans 2:17-24
New International Version
The Jews and the Law
17 Now you, if you call yourself a Jew; if you rely on the law and boast in God;(A) 18 if you know his will and approve of what is superior because you are instructed by the law; 19 if you are convinced that you are a guide for the blind, a light for those who are in the dark, 20 an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of little children, because you have in the law the embodiment of knowledge and truth— 21 you, then, who teach others, do you not teach yourself? You who preach against stealing, do you steal?(B) 22 You who say that people should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?(C) 23 You who boast in the law,(D) do you dishonor God by breaking the law? 24 As it is written: “God’s name is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.”[a](E)
