Romans 2: 1 - 11
|
| 1
|
Therefore you have no excuse, O man, whoever you are, when you judge another; for in passing judgment upon him you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things.
|
| 2
|
We know that the judgment of God rightly falls upon those who do such things.
|
| 3
|
Do you suppose, O man, that when you judge those who do such things and yet do them yourself, you will escape the judgment of God?
|
| 4
|
Or do you presume upon the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience? Do you not know that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance?
|
| 5
|
But by your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God's righteous judgment will be revealed.
|
| 6
|
For he will render to every man according to his works:
|
| 7
|
to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life;
|
| 8
|
but for those who are factious and do not obey the truth, but obey wickedness, there will be wrath and fury.
|
| 9
|
There will be tribulation and distress for every human being who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek,
|
| 10
|
but glory and honor and peace for every one who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek.
|
| 11
|
For God shows no partiality.
