2:1  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.
2:2  But we know that the judgment of God is according to truth upon those who do such things.
2:3  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?
2:4  or despisest thou the riches of his goodness, and forbearance, and long-suffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads thee to repentance?
2:5  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,
2:6  who shall render to each according to his works:
2:7  to them who, in patient continuance of good works, seek for glory and honour and incorruptibility, life eternal.
2:8  But to those that are contentious, and are disobedient to the truth, but obey unrighteousness, there shall be wrath and indignation,
2:9  tribulation and distress, on every soul of man that works evil, both of Jew first, and of Greek;
2:10  but glory and honour and peace to every one that works good, both to Jew first and to Greek:
2:11  for there is no acceptance of persons with God.
2:12  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,
2:13  (for not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
2:14  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;
2:15  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;)
2:16  in the day when God shall judge the secrets of men, according to my glad tidings, by Jesus Christ.
2:17  But if thou art named a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast in God,
2:18  and knowest the will, and discerningly approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;
2:19  and hast confidence that thou thyself art a leader of the blind, a light of those who are in darkness,
2:20  an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, having the form of knowledge and of truth in the law:
2:21  thou then that teachest another, dost thou not teach thyself? thou that preachest not to steal, dost thou steal?
2:22  thou that sayest man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?
2:23  thou who boastest in law, dost thou by transgression of the law dishonour God?
2:24  For the name of God is blasphemed on your account among the nations, according as it is written.
2:25  For circumcision indeed profits if thou keep the law; but if thou be a law-transgressor, thy circumcision is become uncircumcision.
2:26  If therefore the uncircumcision keep the requirements of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be reckoned for circumcision,
2:27  and uncircumcision by nature, fulfilling the law, judge thee, who, with letter and circumcision, art a law-transgressor?
2:28  For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither that circumcision which is outward in flesh;
2:29  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.
