Romans, Chapter 2

¹ Therefore you have no excuse,^a Lit O man, everyone whoeveryone of you who passes judgment, for in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things. ² And we know that the judgment of God^b Lit is according to truth againstrightly falls upon those who practice such things. ³ But do you suppose this, O man,^c Lit who passes judgmentwhen you pass judgment on those who practice such things and do the same yourself, that you will escape the judgment of God? ⁴ Or do you think lightly of the riches of His kindness and tolerance and patience, not knowing that the kindness of God leads you to repentance? ⁵ But^d Or in accordance withbecause of your stubbornness and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, ⁶ who WILL RENDER TO EACH PERSON ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS: ⁷ to those who by perseverance in doing good seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life; ⁸ but to those who are selfishly ambitious and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, wrath and indignation. ⁹ There will be tribulation and distress^e Lit uponfor every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek, ¹⁰ but glory and honor and peace to everyone who does good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. ¹¹ For there is no partiality with God.	1 Rom 1:20 Luk 12:14 Rom 2:3 Rom 9:20 Sa2 12:5-7 Mat 7:1 Luk 6:37 Rom 14:22 3 Luk 12:14 Rom 2:1 Rom 9:20 4 Rom 9:23 Rom 11:33 Co2 8:2 Eph 1:7 Eph 1:18 Eph 2:7 Php 4:19 Col 1:27 Col 2:2 Tit 3:6 Rom 11:22 Rom 3:25 Exo 34:6 Rom 9:22 Ti1 1:16 Pe1 3:20 Pe2 3:9 Pe2 3:15 5 Deu 32:34 Pro 1:18 Psa 110:5 Co2 5:10 Th2 1:5 Jud 1:6 6 Psa 62:12 Pro 24:12 Mat 16:27 7 Luk 8:15 Heb 10:36 Rom 2:10 Heb 2:7 Pe1 1:7 Co1 15:42 Co1 15:50 Co1 15:53 Eph 6:24 Ti2 1:10 Mat 25:46 8 Co2 12:20 Gal 5:20 Php 1:17 Php 2:3 Jam 3:14 Jam 3:16 Th2 2:12 9 Rom 8:35 Act 3:26 Rom 1:16 Pe1 4:17 10 Rom 2:7 Heb 2:7 Pe1 1:7 Rom 2:9 11 Deu 10:17 Act 10:34
¹² For all who have sinned^f Or without lawwithout the Law will also perish^g Or without lawwithout the Law, and all who have sinned^h Or under lawunder the Law will be judgedⁱ Or by lawby the Law; ¹³ for it is not the hearers^j Or of lawof the Law who are^k Or righteousjust before God, but the doers^l Or of lawof the Law will be justified. ¹⁴ For when Gentiles who do not have^m Or lawthe Law doⁿ Lit by natureinstinctively the things of the Law, these, not having^o Or lawthe Law, are a law to themselves, ¹⁵ in that they show the work of the Law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness and their thoughts alternately accusing or else defending them, ¹⁶ on the day when, according to my gospel, God will judge the secrets of men through Christ Jesus.	12 Act 2:23 Co1 9:21 13 Mat 7:21 Mat 7:24 Joh 13:17 Jam 1:22 Jam 1:25 14 Act 10:35 Rom 1:19 Rom 2:15 15 Rom 2:14 Rom 2:27 16 Rom 16:25 Co1 15:1 Gal 1:11 Ti1 1:11 Ti2 2:8 Act 10:42 Act 17:31 Rom 3:6 Rom 14:10
¹⁷ But if you bear the name “Jew” and rely^p Or upon lawupon the Law and boast in God, ¹⁸ and know His will and^qapprove the things that are essential, being instructed out of the Law, ¹⁹ and are confident that you yourself are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness, ²⁰ a^r Or instructorcorrector of the foolish, a teacher of^s Lit infantsthe immature, having in the Law the embodiment of knowledge and of the truth, ²¹ you, therefore, who teach another, do you not teach yourself? You who^t Or proclaimpreach that one shall not steal, do you steal? ²² You who say that one should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? ²³ You who boast^u Or in lawin the Law, through your breaking the Law, do you dishonor God? ²⁴ For “THE NAME OF GOD IS BLASPHEMED AMONG THE GENTILES BECAUSE OF YOU,” just as it is written.	17 Mic 3:11 Joh 5:45 Rom 2:23 Rom 9:4 18 Php 1:10 20 Rom 3:31 Ti2 1:13 21 Mat 23:3 22 Act 19:37 23 Mic 3:11 Joh 5:45 Rom 2:17 Rom 9:4 24 Isa 52:5 Eze 36:20 Pe2 2:2
²⁵ For indeed circumcision is of value if you practice^v Or lawthe Law; but if you are a transgressor^w Or of lawof the Law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision. ²⁶ So if the^x Lit uncircumcisionuncircumcised man keeps the requirements of the Law, will not his uncircumcision be regarded as circumcision? ²⁷ And he who is physically uncircumcised, if he keeps the Law, will he not judge you who^y Lit through the letterthough having the letter of the Law and circumcision are a transgressor^z Or of lawof the Law? ²⁸ For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh. ²⁹ But he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that which is of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter; and his praise is not from men, but from God.	25 Rom 2:13 Rom 2:27 Jer 4:4 Jer 9:25 26 Co1 7:19 Rom 3:30 Eph 2:11 Rom 2:25 Rom 2:27 Rom 8:4 27 Rom 3:30 Eph 2:11 Mat 12:41 28 Joh 8:39 Rom 2:17 Rom 9:6 Gal 6:15 29 Php 3:3 Col 2:11 Deu 30:6 Rom 2:27 Rom 7:6 Co2 3:6 Joh 5:44 Joh 12:43 Co1 4:5 Co2 10:18
