[1] Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are that judge: for wherein you judge another, you condemn yourself; for you that judge do the same things.
[1] ---
[2] But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.
[2] ---
[3] And think you this, O man, that judge them which do such things, and do the same, that you shall escape the judgment of God?
[3] ---
[4] Or despise you the riches of his goodness and forbearance and long-suffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?
[4] ---
[5] But after your hardness and impenitent heart treasure up to yourself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;
[5] ---
[6] Who will render to every man according to his deeds:
[6] ---
[7] To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life:
[7] ---
[8] But to them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,
[8] ---
[9] Tribulation and anguish, on every soul of man that does evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;
[9] ---
[10] But glory, honor, and peace, to every man that works good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:
[10] ---
[11] For there is no respect of persons with God.
[11] ---
[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;
[12] ---
[13] (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
[13] ---
[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 to themselves:
[14] ---
[15] Which show 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;)
[15] ---
[16] In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.
[16] ---
[17] Behold, you are called a Jew, and rest in the law, and make your boast of God,
[17] ---
[18] And know his will, and approve the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;
[18] ---
[19] And are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,
[19] ---
[20] An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which have the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.
[20] ---
[21] You therefore which teach another, teach you not yourself? you that preach a man should not steal, do you steal?
[21] ---
[22] You that say a man should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? you that abhor idols, do you commit sacrilege?
[22] ---
[23] You that make your boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonor you God?
[23] ---
[24] For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.
[24] ---
[25] For circumcision truly profits, if you keep the law: but if you be a breaker of the law, your circumcision is made uncircumcision.
[25] ---
[26] Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?
[26] ---
[27] And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfill the law, judge you, who by the letter and circumcision do transgress the law?
[27] ---
[28] For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
[28] ---
[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.
