Romans 2:21-23
Living Bible
21 Yes, you teach others—then why don’t you teach yourselves? You tell others not to steal—do you steal? 22 You say it is wrong to commit adultery—do you do it? You say “Don’t pray to idols” and then make money your god instead.[a]
23 You are so proud of knowing God’s laws, but you dishonor him by breaking them.
