Romans 2:23-25
New International Reader's Version
23 You brag about the law. But when you break it, you rob God of his honor! 24 It is written, “The Gentiles say evil things against God’s name because of you.” (Isaiah 52:5; Ezekiel 36:22)
25 Circumcision has value if you obey the law. But if you break the law, it is just as if you hadn’t been circumcised.
