Romans 2:1-7 ▼

1 Therefore you have no excuse, whoever you are, when you judge others; for in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things.

2 You say, “We know that God’s judgment on those who do such things is in accordance with truth.”

4 Or do you despise the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience? Do you not realize that God’s kindness is meant to lead you to repentance?

5 But by your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed.

6 For he will repay according to each one’s deeds:

7 to those who by patiently doing good seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life;
