Romans 2:18
| ← Romans 2:17 | Romans 2:18 (KJV) | Romans 2:19 → |
|---|---|---|
Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God,
|
And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;
|
And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,
