| 1. | Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whoever thou art, that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest, doest the same things. |
| 2. | But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth, against them who commit such things. |
| 3. | And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them who do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? |
| 4. | Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness, and forbearance, and long-suffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? |
| 5. | But after thy hardness and impenitent heart, treasurest up to thyself wrath against the day of wrath, and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; |
| 6. | Who will render to every man according to his deeds: |
| 7. | To them who by patient continuance in well-doing, seek for glory, and honor, and immortality; eternal life: |
| 8. | But to them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness; indignation and wrath: |
| 9. | Tribulation and anguish upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile; |
| 10. | But glory, honor, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile; |
| 11. | For there is no respect of persons with God. |
| 12. | For as many as have sinned without law, shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law, shall be judged by the law, |
| 13. | (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. |
| 14. | For when the Gentiles, who have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these having not the law, are a law to themselves. |
| 15. | Who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing testimony, and their thoughts the mean while accusing, or else excusing one another) |
| 16. | In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel. |
| 17. | Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God, |
| 18. | And knowest his will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law, |
| 19. | And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them who are in darkness, |
| 20. | An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, who hast the form of knowledge, and of the truth in the law: |
| 21. | Thou therefore who teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal? |
| 22. | Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege? |
| 23. | Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonorest thou God? |
| 24. | For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles, through you, as it is written. |
| 25. | For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keepest the law; but if thou art a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision. |
| 26. | Therefore, if the uncircumcision keepeth the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision? |
| 27. | And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfilleth the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law? |
| 28. | For he is not a Jew, who is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: |
| 29. | But he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God. |
