Romans - Chapter 2

	Rom 2:1	Therefore you have no excuse, everyone of you who passes judgment, for in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things.
	Rom 2:2	And we know that the judgment of God rightly falls upon those who practice such things.
	Rom 2:3	But do you suppose this, O man, when you pass judgment on those who practice such things and do the same {yourself,} that you will escape the judgment of God?
	Rom 2:4	Or do you think lightly of the riches of His kindness and tolerance and patience, not knowing that the kindness of God leads you to repentance?
	Rom 2:5	But because of your stubbornness and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God,
	Rom 2:6	who WILL RENDER TO EACH PERSON ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS:
	Rom 2:7	to those who by perseverance in doing good seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life;
	Rom 2:8	but to those who are selfishly ambitious and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, wrath and indignation.
	Rom 2:9	{There will be} tribulation and distress for every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek,
	Rom 2:10	but glory and honor and peace to everyone who does good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
	Rom 2:11	For there is no partiality with God.
	Rom 2:12	For all who have sinned without the Law will also perish without the Law, and all who have sinned under the Law will be judged by the Law;
	Rom 2:13	for {it is} not the hearers of the Law {who} are just before God, but the doers of the Law will be justified.
	Rom 2:14	For when Gentiles who do not have the Law do instinctively the things of the Law, these, not having the Law, are a law to themselves,
	Rom 2:15	in that they show the work of the Law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness and their thoughts alternately accusing or else defending them,
	Rom 2:16	on the day when, according to my gospel, God will judge the secrets of men through Christ Jesus.
	Rom 2:17	But if you bear the name "Jew" and rely upon the Law and boast in God,
	Rom 2:18	and know {His} will and approve the things that are essential, being instructed out of the Law,
	Rom 2:19	and are confident that you yourself are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,
	Rom 2:20	a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of the immature, having in the Law the embodiment of knowledge and of the truth,
	Rom 2:21	you, therefore, who teach another, do you not teach yourself? You who preach that one shall not steal, do you steal?
	Rom 2:22	You who say that one should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?
	Rom 2:23	You who boast in the Law, through your breaking the Law, do you dishonor God?
	Rom 2:24	For "THE NAME OF GOD IS BLASPHEMED AMONG THE GENTILES BECAUSE OF YOU," just as it is written.
	Rom 2:25	For indeed circumcision is of value if you practice the Law; but if you are a transgressor of the Law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.
	Rom 2:26	So if the uncircumcised man keeps the requirements of the Law, will not his uncircumcision be regarded as circumcision?
	Rom 2:27	And he who is physically uncircumcised, if he keeps the Law, will he not judge you who though having the letter {of the Law} and circumcision are a transgressor of the Law?
	Rom 2:28	For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh.
	Rom 2:29	But he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that which is of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter; and his praise is not from men, but from God.
