Romans 2:4-22

⁴Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness, and forbearance, and long-suffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

⁵But after thy hardness and impenitent heart, treasurest up to thyself wrath against the day of wrath, and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;

⁶Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

⁷To them who by patient continuance in well-doing, seek for glory, and honor, and immortality; eternal life:

⁸But to them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness; indignation and wrath:

⁹Tribulation and anguish upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

¹⁰But glory, honor, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile;

¹¹For there is no respect of persons with God.

¹²For 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,

¹³(For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

¹⁴For when the Gentiles, who have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these having not the law, are a law to themselves.

¹⁵Who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing testimony, and their thoughts the mean while accusing, or else excusing one another)

¹⁶In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel.

¹⁷Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God,

¹⁸And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law,

¹⁹And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them who are in darkness,

²⁰An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, who hast the form of knowledge, and of the truth in the law:

²¹Thou therefore who teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?

²²Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?
