G3588–ὁ–ho

You who give teaching to others, do you give it to yourself? you who say that a man may not take what is not his, do you take what is not yours?

ὁ ho “You who [are]”ὁ ho “You who [are]”

You who say that a man may not be untrue to his wife, are you true to yours? you who are a hater of images, do you do wrong to the house of God?

ὁ ho “You who [are]”ὁ ho “You who [are]”τὰ ta “<the>”

You who take pride in the law, are you doing wrong to the honour of God by behaviour which is against the law?

τῆς tēs “the”τοῦ tou “of the”τὸν ton “<the>”

For the name of God is shamed among the Gentiles because of you, as it is said in the holy Writings.

τὸ to “<the>”τοῦ tou “<the>”τοῖς tois “the”

It is true that circumcision is of use if you keep the law, but if you go against the law it is as if you had it not.

ἡ hē “the”

If those who have not circumcision keep the rules of the law, will it not be credited to them as circumcision?

ἡ hē “the”τὰ ta “the”τοῦ tou “of the”ἡ hē “the”

And they, by their keeping of the law without circumcision, will be judges of you, by whom the law is broken though you have the letter of the law and circumcision.

ἡ hē “the”τὸν ton “the”τὸν ton “who”

The true Jew is not one who is only so publicly, and circumcision is not that which may be seen in the flesh:

ὁ ho “the [one]”τῷ tō “the”ἡ hē “the [one]”τῷ tō “the”

But he is a Jew who is a secret one, whose circumcision is of the heart, in the spirit and not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.

ὁ ho “he who [is]”τῷ tō “the”ὁ ho “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”

How then is the Jew better off? or what profit is there in circumcision?

τὸ to “the”τοῦ tou “of the”ἡ hē “the”τῆς tēs “of the”

Much in every way: first of all because the words of God were given to them.

τὰ ta “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”

And if some have no faith, will that make the faith of God without effect?

ἡ hē “the”τὴν tēn “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”

In no way: but let God be true, though every man is seen to be untrue; as it is said in the Writings, That your words may be seen to be true, and you may be seen to be right when you are judged.

ὁ ho “<the>”τοῖς tois “the”τῷ tō “<the>”

But if the righteousness of God is supported by our wrongdoing what is to be said? is it wrong for God to be angry (as men may say)?

ἡ hē “the”ὁ ho “<the>”ὁ ho “who”τὴν tēn “the”

In no way: because if it is so, how is God able to be the judge of all the world?

ὁ ho “<the>”τὸν ton “the”

But if, because I am untrue, God being seen to be true gets more glory, why am I to be judged as a sinner?

ἡ hē “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”τῷ tō “<the>”τὴν tēn “the”

Let us not do evil so that good may come (a statement which we are falsely said by some to have made), because such behaviour will have its right punishment.

τὰ ta “the [things]”τὰ ta “the”τὸ to “<the>”

Not one who has the knowledge of what is right, not one who is a searcher after God;

ὁ ho “who”ὁ ho “who”τὸν ton “<the>”

They have all gone out of the way, there is no profit in any of them; there is not one who does good, not so much as one:

ὁ ho “who”

Their throat is like an open place of death; with their tongues they have said what is not true: the poison of snakes is under their lips:

ὁ ho “[is] the”ταῖς tais “with the”τὰ ta “the”

Whose mouth is full of curses and bitter words:

τὸ to “the”

Their feet are quick in running after blood;

οἱ hoi “the”

Destruction and trouble are in their ways;

ταῖς tais “the”

There is no fear of God before their eyes.

τῶν tōn “the”

Now, we have knowledge that what the law says is for those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and all men may be judged by God:

ὁ ho “the”τοῖς tois “to those”τῷ tō “the”ὁ ho “the”τῷ tō “<the>”
