Old Testament

New Testament

Romans 2:4-16 American Standard Version (ASV)

4. Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

5. but after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up for thyself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;

6. who will render to every man according to his works:

7. to them that by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and incorruption, eternal life:

8. but unto them that are factious, and obey not the truth, but obey unrighteousness, shall be wrath and indignation,

9. tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that worketh evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Greek;

10. but glory and honor and peace to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek:

11. for there is no respect of persons with God.

12. For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without the law: and as many as have sinned under 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 Gentiles that have not the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are the law unto themselves;

15. in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness therewith, and their thoughts one with another accusing or else excusing them);

16. in the day when God shall judge the secrets of men, according to my gospel, by Jesus Christ.
