← Romans 2:20	Romans 2:21 (KJV)	Romans 2:22 →
An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.	Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?	Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?
