(Rom 2:1) Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.
(Rom 2:2) But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.
(Rom 2:3) And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?
(Rom 2:4) Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?
(Rom 2:5) But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;
(Rom 2:6) Who will render to every man according to his deeds:
(Rom 2:7) To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:
(Rom 2:8) But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,
(Rom 2:9) Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;
(Rom 2:10) But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:
(Rom 2:11) For there is no respect of persons with God.
(Rom 2:12) For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;
(Rom 2:13) (For not the hearers of the law {are} just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
(Rom 2:14) For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
(Rom 2:15) Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and {their} thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)
(Rom 2:16) In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.
(Rom 2:17) Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God,
(Rom 2:18) And knowest {his} will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;
(Rom 2:19) And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,
(Rom 2:20) An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.
(Rom 2:21) Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?
(Rom 2:22) Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?
(Rom 2:23) Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?
(Rom 2:24) For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.
(Rom 2:25) For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision.
(Rom 2:26) Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?
(Rom 2:27) And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law?
(Rom 2:28) For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither {is that} circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
(Rom 2:29) But he {is} a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision {is that} of the heart, in the spirit, {and} not in the letter; whose praise {is} not of men, but of God.
