Paul's Letter to the Romans (WEB)
2:1 Therefore you are without excuse, man, whoever you are who judge. For in that which you
judge another, you condemn yourself. For you who judge practice the same things. 2:2We know
that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things. 2:3Do you
know this, O man who judges those who practice such things, and do the same, that you will
escape the judgment of God? 2:4Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and
patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance? 2:5But according to your
hardness and unrepentant heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and
revelation of the righteous judgment of God; 2:6who "will render to every man according to his
works:" 2:7to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and incorruptibility,
eternal life; 2:8but to those who are self-seeking, and don't obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness,
will be wrath and indignation, 2:9oppression and anguish, on every soul of man who works evil, on
the Jew first, and also on the Greek. 2:10But glory and honor and peace to every man who works
good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 2:11For there is no partiality with God. 2:12For as many
as have sinned without law will also perish without the law. As many as have sinned under the
law will be judged by the law. 2:13For it isn't the hearers of the law who are righteous before God,
but the doers of the law will be justified 2:14(for when Gentiles who don't have the law do by nature
the things of the law, these, not having the law, are a law to themselves, 2:15in that they show the
work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience testifying with them, and their thoughts
among themselves accusing or else excusing them) 2:16in the day when God will judge the secrets
of men, according to my gospel, by Jesus Christ. 2:17Indeed you bear the name of a Jew, and rest on
the law, and glory in God, 2:18and know his will, and approve the things that are excellent, being
instructed out of the law, 2:19and are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light to
those who are in darkness, 2:20a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of babies, having in the law the
form of knowledge and of the truth. 2:21You therefore who teach another, don't you teach yourself?
You who preach that a man shouldn't steal, do you steal? 2:22You who say a man shouldn't commit
adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? 2:23You who glory in
the law, through your disobedience of the law do you dishonor God? 2:24For "the name of God is
blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you," just as it is written. 2:25For circumcision indeed
profits, if you are a doer of the law, but if you are a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has
become uncircumcision. 2:26If therefore the uncircumcised keep the ordinances of the law, won't
his uncircumcision be accounted as circumcision? 2:27Won't the uncircumcision which is by nature,
if it fulfills the law, judge you, who with the letter and circumcision are a transgressor of the law?
2:28For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the
flesh; 2:29but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit not
in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.
