Romans 2:2-16

2And we know that the judgmentG2917 of GodG2316 isG1510 accordingG2596 to truthG225 against them that practise suchG5108 thingsG5108. 3And reckonest thou this, O manG444, who judgest them that practise suchG5108 thingsG3778, and doest the sameG846, that thou shalt escapeG1628 the judgmentG2917 of GodG2316? 4Or despisest thou the richesG4149 of his goodness and forbearanceG463 and longsuffering, not knowingG50 that the goodness of GodG2316 leadeth thee to repentanceG3341? 5but after thy hardness and impenitent heartG2588 treasurest up for thyself wrathG3709 in the dayG2250 of wrathG3709 and revelationG602 of the righteous judgment of GodG2316; 6who will renderG591 to every manG1538 accordingG2596 to his worksG2041: 7to them that by patience in well-doing seekG2212 for gloryG1391 and honorG5092 and incorruption, eternalG166 lifeG2222: 8but unto them that are factious, and obeyG3982 not the truthG225, but obeyG3982 unrighteousnessG93, shall be wrathG3709 and indignation, 9tribulationG2347 and anguish, upon every soulG5590 of manG444 that worketh evilG2556, of the JewG2453 firstG4413, and alsoG2532 of the GreekG1672; 10but gloryG1391 and honorG5092 and peaceG1515 to every man that worketh goodG18, to the JewG2453 firstG4413, and alsoG2532 to the GreekG1672: 11for there isG1510 no respect of persons with GodG2316. 12For as manyG3745 as have sinnedG264 without the lawG3551 shall alsoG2532 perishG622 without the lawG3551: and as manyG3745 as have sinnedG264 under the lawG3551 shall be judgedG2919 by the lawG3551; 13for not the hearersG202 of the lawG3551 are justG1342 before GodG2316, but the doersG4163 of the lawG3551 shall be justifiedG1344; 14(for whenG3752 GentilesG1484 that have not the lawG3551 do by natureG5449 the thingsG3778 of the lawG3551, these, not having the lawG3551, areG1510 the lawG3551 unto themselves; 15in that they showG1731 the workG2041 of the lawG3551 written in their heartsG2588, their conscienceG4893 bearingG4828 witnessG4828 therewith, and their thoughts oneG240 with another accusingG2723 or else excusing them); 16in the dayG2250 whenG3753 GodG2316 shall judgeG2919 the secretsG2927 of menG444, accordingG2596 to my gospelG2098, by JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
