Romans 2:1-9 ▼

1 For this reason, O man, each one of you who judges is inexcusable. For by that which you judge another, you condemn yourself. For you do the same things that you judge.

2 For we know that the judgment of God is in accord with truth against those who do such things.

3 But, O man, when you judge those who do such things as you yourself also do, do you think that you will escape the judgment of God?

4 Or do you despise the riches of his goodness and patience and forbearance? Do you not know that the kindness of God is calling you to repentance?

5 But in accord with your hard and impenitent heart, you store up wrath for yourself, unto the day of wrath and of revelation by the just judgment of God.

6 For he will render to each one according to his works:

7 To those who, in accord with patient good works, seek glory and honor and incorruption, certainly, he will render eternal life.

8 But to those who are contentious and who do not acquiesce to the truth, but instead trust in iniquity, he will render wrath and indignation.

9 Tribulation and anguish are upon every soul of man that works evil: the Jew first, and also the Greek.
