| 1. | Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, every one who judgest, for in that in which thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. |
| 2. | But we know that the judgment of God is according to truth upon those who do such things. |
| 3. | And thinkest thou this, O man, who judgest those that do such things, and practisest them thyself, 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 leads thee to repentance? |
| 5. | but, according to thy hardness and impenitent heart, treasurest up to thyself wrath, in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, |
| 6. | who shall render to each according to his works: |
| 7. | to them who, in patient continuance of good works, seek for glory and honour and incorruptibility, life eternal. |
| 8. | But to those that are contentious, and are disobedient to the truth, but obey unrighteousness, there shall be wrath and indignation, |
| 9. | tribulation and distress, on every soul of man that works evil, both of Jew first, and of Greek; |
| 10. | but glory and honour and peace to every one that works good, both to Jew first and to Greek: |
| 11. | for there is no acceptance of persons with God. |
| 12. | For as many as have sinned without law shall perish also without law; and as many as have sinned under law shall be judged by 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 those of the nations, which have no law, practise by nature the things of the law, these, having no law, are a law to themselves; |
| 15. | who shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts accusing or else excusing themselves between themselves;) |
| 16. | in the day when God shall judge the secrets of men, according to my glad tidings, by Jesus Christ. |
| 17. | But if thou art named a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast in God, |
| 18. | and knowest the will, and discerningly approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law; |
| 19. | and hast confidence that thou thyself art a leader of the blind, a light of those who are in darkness, |
| 20. | an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, having the form of knowledge and of truth in the law: |
| 21. | thou then that teachest another, dost thou not teach thyself? thou that preachest not to steal, dost thou steal? |
| 22. | thou that sayest man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege? |
| 23. | thou who boastest in law, dost thou by transgression of the law dishonour God? |
| 24. | For the name of God is blasphemed on your account among the nations, according as it is written. |
| 25. | For circumcision indeed profits if thou keep the law; but if thou be a law-transgressor, thy circumcision is become uncircumcision. |
| 26. | If therefore the uncircumcision keep the requirements of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be reckoned for circumcision, |
| 27. | and uncircumcision by nature, fulfilling the law, judge thee, who, with letter and circumcision, art a law-transgressor? |
| 28. | For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither that circumcision which is outward in flesh; |
| 29. | but he is a Jew who is so inwardly; and circumcision, of the heart, in spirit, not in letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God. |
