Romans 2:27

---

← Romans 2:26	Romans 2:27 (KJV)	Romans 2:28 →
Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?	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?	For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither [is that] circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
