Romans 2:2-16
2AndG1161 we knowG1492 thatG3754 God’sG2316 judgmentG2917 againstG1909 those whoG3588 doG4238 such thingsG5108 isG1510 based onG2596 truthG225. 3So when you, OG5599 manG444, pass judgment onG2919 others, yetG2532 doG4160 the same thingsG5108G4238, do you thinkG3049 youG4771 will escapeG1628 God’sG2316 judgmentG2917? 4OrG2228 do you disregardG2706 theG3588 richesG4149 ofG3588 HisG846 kindnessG5544, toleranceG463, andG2532 patienceG3115, not realizingG50 thatG3754 God’sG2316 kindnessG5543 leadsG71 youG4771 toG1519 repentanceG3341?
5ButG1161 because ofG2596 yourG4771 hardG4643 andG2532 unrepentantG279 heartG2588, you are storing upG2343 wrathG3709 against yourselfG4572 forG1722 the dayG2250 of wrathG3709, when God’sG2316 righteous judgmentG1341 will be revealedG602. 6God “will repayG591 each oneG1538 according toG2596 hisG846 deedsG2041.”1 7To those whoG3588 byG2596 perseveranceG5281 in doingG2041 goodG18 seekG2212 gloryG1391, honorG5092, andG2532 immortalityG861, He will give eternalG166 lifeG2222. 8ButG1161 for those whoG3588 are self-seekingG1537G2052 andG2532 who rejectG544 theG3588 truthG225 andG1161 followG3982 wickednessG93, there will be wrathG3709 andG2532 angerG2372.
9There will be troubleG2347 andG2532 distressG4730 forG1909 everyG3956 humanG444 beingG5590 whoG3588 doesG2716 evilG2556, firstG4412 for the JewG2453, thenG2532 for the GreekG1672; 10butG1161 gloryG1391, honorG5092, andG2532 peaceG1515 for everyoneG3956 whoG3588 doesG2038 goodG18, firstG2453 for the JewG4412, thenG2532 for the GreekG1672. 11ForG1063 GodG2316 does not showG1510G3756 favoritismG4382.
All whoG3745 sinG264 apart from the lawG460 will also perishG2532G622 apart from the lawG460, andG2532 all whoG3745 sinG264 underG1722 the lawG3551 will be judgedG2919 byG1223 the lawG3551. 13ForG1063 it is notG3756 theG3588 hearersG202 of the lawG3551 who are righteousG1342 beforeG3844 GodG2316, butG235 it is theG3588 doersG4163 of the lawG3551 who will be declared righteousG1344.
14IndeedG1063, whenG3752 GentilesG1484, whoG3588 do not haveG3361G2192 the lawG3551, doG4160 by natureG5449 whatG3588 theG3588 lawG3551 requires, they areG1510 a lawG3551 to themselvesG1438, even though theyG3778 do not haveG3361G2192 the lawG3551. 15So theyG3748 showG1731 that theG3588 workG2041 of theG3588 lawG3551 is writtenG1123 onG1722 theirG846 heartsG2588, theirG846 consciencesG4893 alsoG2532 bearing witnessG4828, and theirG240 thoughtsG3053 eitherG3342 accusingG2723 orG2228 defendingG626 them 16onG1722 theG3739 dayG2250 whenG3753 GodG2316 will judgeG2919 men’sG444 secretsG2927 throughG1223 ChristG5547 JesusG2424,2 as proclaimed byG2596 myG1473 gospelG2098.
