Romans 2:1-15

1Therefore you are without excuse, O man—every one of you who is judging. For by whatever you judge another, you condemn yourself. For you who judge practice the same things.

2We know that God’s judgment on those who practice such things is based on truth.

3But you, O man—judging those practicing such things yet doing the same—do you suppose that you will escape the judgment of God?

4Or do you belittle the riches of His kindness and tolerance and patience—not realizing that God’s kindness leads you to repentance?

5But by your hard and unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment is revealed.

6He will pay back each person according to his deeds.

7To those who by perseverance in doing good are seeking glory, honor, and immortality—eternal life.

8But to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness—wrath and fury.

9There will be trouble and hardship for every human soul that does evil—to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

10But there will be glory, honor, and shalom to everyone who does good—to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

11For there is no partiality with God.

12For all who have sinned outside of Torah will also perish outside of Torah, and all who have sinned according to Torah will be judged by Torah.

13For it is not the hearers of Torah who are righteous before God; rather, it is the doers of Torah who will be justified.

14For when Gentiles, who do not have the Torah, do by nature the things of the Torah, they are a law to themselves even though they do not have the Torah.

15They show that the work of the Torah is written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness and their thoughts switching between accusing or defending them
