< Romans 2 >
1 Therefore inexcusable you are, O man everyone you who [are] judging; In that which for you judge the other, yourself you are condemning; for the same things you do who are judging.
2 We know however that the judgment of God is according to truth upon those such things practicing;
3 Suppose you now this, O man you who [are] judging those such things practicing and doing them [yourself], that you yourself will escape the judgment of God?
4 Or the riches of the kindness of Him and the forbearance and the patience despise you not knowing that the kindness of God to repentance you leads?
5 Because of however the hardness of you and unrepentant heart you are treasuring up to yourself wrath in [the] day of wrath and revelation (and *O*) of justice of God,
6 who will give to each according to the works of him,
7 to those who indeed with endurance in work good glory and honor and immortality are seeking life eternal; (aiōnios )
8 to those however of self-interest and disobeying (indeed *k*) the truth, being persuaded about however unrighteousness, wrath and anger
9 tribulation and distress upon every soul of man which is working the evil, of Jew both first and also of Greek;
10 glory however and honor and peace to everyone who is doing good, to Jew both first and to Greek;
11 Not for there is partiality with God.
12 As many as for without [the] Law have sinned, without [the] Law also will perish; and as many as in [the] Law have sinned, through [the] Law will be judged;
13 not for the hearers (*k*) of [the] law [are] righteous with God, but the doers (*k*) of [the] law will be justified.
14 When for Gentiles not the law having by nature the [things] of the law (they may do, *N(k)O*) these [the] Law not having to themselves are a law,
15 who show the work of the law written in the hearts when they are bearing witness to them their conscience and between one another the thoughts accusing or also presenting a defense
16 on day (when *NK(o)*) (judges *N(k)O*) God the secrets of men according to the gospel of mine through Christ Jesus.
17 (If *N(K)O*) (however *no*) you yourself a Jew are called and you rely on (the *k*) law and you boast in God
18 and know the will and approve the [things] being superior being instructed out of the law;
19 you are confident then [that] you yourself a guide being of [the] blind, a light to those in darkness,
20 an instructor of [the] foolish, a teacher of infants, having the embodiment of knowledge and of the truth in the law;
21 You who [are] then teaching another yourself not do you teach? You who [are] preaching not to steal do you steal?
22 You who [are] saying not to commit adultery do you commit adultery? You who [are] abhorring idols do you rob temples?
23 You who in law boast, through the transgression of the law God dishonor you?
24 For the name of God through you is blasphemed among the Gentiles even as it has been written.
25 Circumcision indeed for profits if [the] law you shall do; if however a transgressor of law you shall be, the circumcision of you uncircumcision has become.
26 If therefore the uncircumcision the requirements of the law shall keep, (surely *N(k)O*) the uncircumcision of him for circumcision will be reckoned?
27 And will judge the by nature uncircumcision the law fulfilling you who with [the] letter and circumcision [are] a transgressor of law.
28 Not for the [one] on the outward a Jew is, neither the [one] outwardly the outward in flesh [is] circumcision,
29 but he who [is] on the inward a Jew [is one], and circumcision [is] of heart in spirit not in letter, of whom the praise [is] not of men but of God.
