Romans 2
2
1Therefore youi are inexcusable, O man, whosoever youi are that judge: for wherein youi judge another, youi condemn yourself; for youi that judge do the same things.
2But we are sure that the judgment of God-The Father is according to tagainst them which commit such things.
3And think youi this, O man, that judge them which do such things, and do the same, that youi shall escape the judgment of God-The Father?
4Or despise youi the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God-The Father leads youi to repentance?
5But after youri blindness and impenitent heart treasures up unto yourself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God-The Father;
6Who will render to every man according to his deeds:
7To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:
8But unto them that are contentious (loving to quarrel and angrily debate), and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,
9Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that does evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;
10But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that works good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:
11For there is no respect of persons with God-The Father.
12For 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-The Father, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
14For when the Goyim [Gentiles], which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
15Which show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and [their] thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)
16In the day when God-The Father shall judge the secrets of men by Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah] according to my Gospel (joyful message).
17Behold, youi are called a Jewish person, and rests in the law, and makes youri boast of God-The Father,
18And know [his] will, and approves the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;
19And are confident that youi yourself are a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,
20An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which have the form of knowledge and of the tin the law.
21youi therefore which teaches another, teaches youi not yourself? youi that preaches a man should not steal, do youi steal?
22youi that say a man should not commit adultery, do youi commit adultery? youi that abhorrers idols, do youi commit sacrilege (violate or steal sacred things)?
23youi that makes youri boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonour youi God-The Father?
24For the name of God-The Father is blasphemed among the Goyim [Gentiles] through you, as it is written.
25For circumcision truly profits, if youi keep the law: but if youi be a breaker of the law, youri circumcision is made uncircumcision.
26Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?
27And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfill the law, judge youi, who by the letter and circumcision do transgress the law?
28For he is not a Jewish person, which is one outwardly; neither [is that] circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
29But he [is] a Jewish person, which is one inwardly; and circumcision [is that] of the heart, in the Spirit [Ruach], [and] not in the letter; whose praise [is] not of men, but of God-The Father.
