    23thou who in the law dost boast, through the transgression of the law God dost thou dishonour?

    24for the name of God because of you is evil spoken of among the nations, according as it hath been written.

    25For circumcision, indeed, doth profit, if law thou mayest practise, but if a transgressor of law thou mayest be, thy circumcision hath become uncircumcision.
