Romans 2:1

Therefore you are without excuse, O man, whoever you are who judge. For in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself. For you who judge practice the same things.

Romans 2:2

We know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things.

Romans 2:3

Do you think this, O man who judges those who practice such things, and do the same, that you will escape the judgment of God?

Romans 2:4

Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?

Romans 2:5

But according to your hardness and unrepentant heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath, revelation, and of the righteous judgment of God;

Romans 2:6

who "will pay back to everyone according to their works:"

Romans 2:7

to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and incorruptibility, eternal life;

Romans 2:8

but to those who are self-seeking, and don't obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, will be wrath and indignation,

Romans 2:9

oppression and anguish, on every soul of man who works evil, on the Jew first, and also on the Greek.

Romans 2:10

But glory and honor and peace to every man who works good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

Romans 2:11

For there is no partiality with God.

Romans 2:12

For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without the law. As many as have sinned under the law will be judged by the law.

Romans 2:13

For it isn't the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law will be justified

Romans 2:14

(for when Gentiles who don't have the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are a law to themselves,

Romans 2:15

in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience testifying with them, and their thoughts among themselves accusing or else excusing them)

Romans 2:16

in the day when God will judge the secrets of men, according to my Gospel, by Jesus Christ.

Romans 2:17

Indeed you bear the name of a Jew, and rest on the law, and glory in God,

Romans 2:18

and know his will, and approve the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law,

Romans 2:19

and are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,

Romans 2:20

a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of babies, having in the law the form of knowledge and of the truth.

Romans 2:21

You therefore who teach another, don't you teach yourself? You who preach that a man shouldn't steal, do you steal?

Romans 2:22

You who say a man shouldn't commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?

Romans 2:23

You who glory in the law, through your disobedience of the law do you dishonor God?

Romans 2:24

For "the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you," just as it is written.

Romans 2:25

For circumcision indeed profits, if you are a doer of the law, but if you are a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.

Romans 2:26

If therefore the uncircumcised keep the ordinances of the law, won't his uncircumcision be accounted as circumcision?

Romans 2:27

Won't the uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfills the law, judge you, who with the letter and circumcision are a transgressor of the law?

Romans 2:28

For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh;

Romans 2:29

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