ESV — Romans 2:17; Romans 2:23; Romans 4:2; 1 Corinthians 1:29-31; Ephesians 2:9; 2 Timothy 1:9; Acts 13:39

17 But if you call yourself a Jew and drely on the law and boast in God

23 You who jboast in the law kdishonor God by breaking the law.

For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but unot before God.

29 so rthat no human being1 might boast in the presence of God. 30 And because of him2 you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us swisdom from God, trighteousness and usanctification and vredemption, 31 so that, as it is written, w“Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.”
