Context of Romans 2:10

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. But 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.
