Romans 2:12-16

12For all who have sinned 12without the Law will also perish 3without the Law, and all who have sinned 4under the Law will be judged 5by the Law; 13for it is 6not the hearers 7of the Law who are 8righteous before God, but the doers 9of the Law who will be justified. 14For when Gentiles who do not have 10the Law 1112instinctively perform the requirements of the Law, these, though not having 13the Law, are a law to themselves, 15in that they show 14the work of the Law written in their hearts, their conscience testifying and their thoughts alternately accusing or else defending them, 16on the day when, 15according to my gospel, 16God will judge the secrets of mankind through Christ Jesus.
