Chapter 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.  

 

 

--

2


 

  But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.  

 

 

--

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?  

 

 

--

4


 

  Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?  

 

 

--

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;  

 

 

--

6


 

  Who will render to every man according to his deeds:  

 

 

--

7


 

  To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:  

 

 

--

8


 

  But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,  

 

 

--

9


 

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

 

 

--

10


 

  But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:  

 

 

--

11


 

  For there is no respect of persons with God.  

 

 

--

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;  

 

 

--

13


 

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

 

 

--

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:  

 

 

--

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;)  

 

 

--

16


 

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

 

 

--

17


 

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

 

 

--

18


 

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

 

 

--

19


 

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

 

 

--

20


 

  An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.  

 

 

--

21


 

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

 

 

--

22


 

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

 

 

--

23


 

  Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?  

 

 

--

24


 

  For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.  

 

 

--

25


 

  For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision.  

 

 

--

26


 

  Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?  

 

 

--

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?  

 

 

--

28


 

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

 

 

--

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.
