1 - Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whoever thou art, that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest, doest the same things.

2 - But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth, against them who commit such things.

3 - And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them who do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

4 - Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness, and forbearance, and long-suffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

5 - But after thy hardness and impenitent heart, treasurest up to thyself wrath against the day of wrath, and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;

6 - Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

7 - To them who by patient continuance in well-doing, seek for glory, and honor, and immortality; eternal life:

8 - But to them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness; indignation and wrath:

9 - Tribulation and anguish upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

10 - But glory, honor, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile;

11 - For there is no respect of persons with God.

12 - For as many as have sinned without law, shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law, shall be judged by the law,

13 - (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

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

15 - Who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing testimony, and [their] thoughts the mean while accusing, or else excusing one another)

16 - In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel.

17 - Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God,

18 - And knowest [his] will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law,

19 - And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them who are in darkness,

20 - An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, who hast the form of knowledge, and of the truth in the law:

21 - Thou therefore who teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?

22 - Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?

23 - Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonorest thou God?

24 - For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles, through you, as it is written.

25 - For circumcision verily profiteth, if thou keepest the law; but if thou art a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision.

26 - Therefore, if the uncircumcision keepeth the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?

27 - And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfilleth the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law?

28 - For he is not a Jew, who is one outwardly; neither [is that] circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

29 - But he [is] a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision [is that] of the heart, in the spirit, [and] not in the letter; whose praise [is] not from men, but from God.
