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.
