Sha'ul�s Letter to the Romans, Chapter 2
{2:1} Therefore you are without excuse, man, whoever you are who
judge. For in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself. For
you who judge practice the same things. {2:2} We know that the
judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such
things. {2:3} Do you know this, O man who judges those who practice
such things, and do the same, that you will escape the judgment of
God? {2:4} Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance,
and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to
repentance? {2:5} But according to your hardness and unrepentant heart
you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and
revelation of the righteous judgment of God; {2:6} who "will render to
every man according to his works:" {2:7} to those who by patience in
well-doing seek for glory and honor and incorruptibility, eternal
life; {2:8} but to those who are self-seeking, and don't obey the
truth, but obey unrighteousness, will be wrath and indignation, {2:9}
oppression and anguish, on every soul of man who works evil, on the
Yehudi first, and also on the Yevanit. {2:10} But glory and honor and
shalom to every man who works good, to the Yehudi first, and also to
the Yevanit. {2:11} For there is no partiality with God. {2:12} For as
many as have sinned without law will also perish without the law. As
many as have sinned under the law will be judged by the law. {2:13}
For it isn't the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but
the doers of the law will be justified {2:14} (for when Goyim who
don't have the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not
having the law, are a law to themselves, {2:15} in that they show the
work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience testifying
with them, and their thoughts among themselves accusing or else
excusing them) {2:16} in the day when God will judge the secrets of
men, according to my Good News, by Yeshua the Messiah. {2:17} Indeed
you bear the name of a Yehudi, and rest on the law, and glory in God,
{2:18} and know his will, and approve the things that are excellent,
being instructed out of the law, {2:19} and are confident that you
yourself are a guide of the blind, a light to those who are in
darkness, {2:20} a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of babies,
having in the law the form of knowledge and of the truth. {2:21} You
therefore who teach another, don't you teach yourself? You who preach
that a man shouldn't steal, do you steal? {2:22} You who say a man
shouldn't commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor
idols, do you rob temples? {2:23} You who glory in the law, through
your disobedience of the law do you dishonor God? {2:24} For "the name
of God is blasphemed among the Goyim because of you," just as it is
written. {2:25} For circumcision indeed profits, if you are a doer of
the law, but if you are a transgressor of the law, your circumcision
has become uncircumcision. {2:26} If therefore the uncircumcised keep
the ordinances of the law, won't his uncircumcision be accounted as
circumcision? {2:27} Won't the uncircumcision which is by nature, if
it fulfills the law, judge you, who with the letter and circumcision
are a transgressor of the law? {2:28} For he is not a Yehudi who is
one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the
flesh; {2:29} but he is a Yehudi who is one inwardly, and circumcision
is that of the heart, in the spirit not in the letter; whose praise is
not from men, but from God.
