Romans 2:9-23 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

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?
