* Therefore thou art (5748 ) inexcusable , O man , whosoever thou art that judgest (5723 ): for wherein thou judgest (5719 ) another , thou condemnest (5719 ) thyself ; for thou that judgest (5723 ) doest (5719 ) the same things . * But we are sure (5758 ) that the judgment of God is (5748 ) according to truth against them which commit (5723 ) such things . * And thinkest thou (5736 ) this , O man , that judgest (5723 ) them which do (5723 ) such things , and doest (5723 ) the same , that thou shalt escape (5695 ) the judgment of God ? * Or despisest thou (5719 ) the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering ; not knowing (5723 ) that the goodness of God leadeth (5719 ) thee to repentance ? * But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up (5719 ) unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God ; * Who will render (5692 ) to every man according to his deeds : * To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek (5723 ) for glory and honour and immortality , eternal life : * But unto them that are contentious , and do not obey (5723 ) the truth , but obey (5734 ) unrighteousness , indignation and wrath , * Tribulation and anguish , upon every soul of man that doeth (5740 ) evil , of the Jew first , and also of the Gentile ; * But glory , honour , and peace , to every man that worketh (5740 ) good , to the Jew first , and also to the Gentile : * For there is (5748 ) no respect of persons with God . * For as many as have sinned (5627 ) without law shall also perish (5698 ) without law : and as many as have sinned (5627 ) in the law shall be judged (5701 ) by the law ; * (For not the hearers of the law are just before God , but the doers of the law shall be justified (5701 ). * For when the Gentiles , which have (5723 ) not the law , do (5725 ) by nature the things contained in the law , these , having (5723 ) not the law , are (5748 ) a law unto themselves : * Which shew (5731 ) the work of the law written in their hearts , their conscience also bearing witness (5723 ), and their thoughts the mean while accusing (5723 ) or else excusing (5740 ) one another ;) * In the day when God shall judge (5692 ) (5719 ) the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel . * Behold , thou art called (5743 ) a Jew , and restest (5736 ) in the law , and makest thy boast (5736 ) of God , * And knowest (5719 ) his will , and approvest (5719 ) the things that are more excellent (5723 ), being instructed (5746 ) out of the law ; * And art confident (5754 ) that thou thyself art (5750 ) a guide of the blind , a light of them which are in darkness , * An instructor of the foolish , a teacher of babes , which hast (5723 ) the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law . * Thou therefore which teachest (5723 ) another , teachest thou (5719 ) not thyself ? thou that preachest (5723 ) a man should not steal (5721 ), dost thou steal (5719 )? * Thou that sayest (5723 ) a man should not commit adultery (5721 ), dost thou commit adultery (5719 )? thou that abhorrest (5740 ) idols , dost thou commit sacrilege (5719 )? * Thou that makest thy boast (5736 ) of the law , through breaking the law dishonourest thou (5719 ) God ? * For the name of God is blasphemed (5743 ) among the Gentiles through you , as it is written (5769 ). * For circumcision verily profiteth (5719 ), if thou keep (5725 ) the law : but if thou be (5753 ) a breaker of the law , thy circumcision is made (5754 ) uncircumcision . * Therefore if the uncircumcision keep (5725 ) the righteousness of the law , shall not his uncircumcision be counted (5701 ) for circumcision ? * And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature , if it fulfil (5723 ) the law , judge (5692 ) thee , who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law ? * For he is (5748 ) not a Jew , which is one outwardly ; neither is that circumcision , which is outward in the flesh : * But he is a Jew , which is one inwardly ; and circumcision is that of the heart , in the spirit , and not in the letter ; whose praise is not of men , but of God .
