New Testament

Romans 2:5-19 Modern English Version (MEV)

5. But because of your hardness and impenitent heart, you are storing up treasures of wrath against yourself on the day of wrath when the righteous judgment of God will be revealed,

6. and He “will render to every man according to his deeds.”

7. To those who by patiently doing good seek for glory and honor and immortality will be eternal life.

10. But glory, honor, and peace will be to every man who does good work—to the Jew first, and then to the Gentile,

12. As many as have sinned without the law will also perish without the law, and as many as have sinned under the law will be judged by the law,

13. for the hearers of the law are not justified before God, but the doers of the law will be justified.

14. For when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, not having the law, are a law unto themselves,

15. who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, while their conflicting thoughts accuse or even excuse them,

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

17. Indeed you are called a Jew, and rest in the law, and make your boast in God.

18. You know His will and approve the things that are more excellent, because you are instructed in the law.

19. You are confident that you are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,
