Romans 2:7
Compare all
5 But in accordance with your hardness and your1 impenitent heart ayou are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God,  
6 who a“will render to each one according to his deeds”:  
7 eternal life to those who by patient continuance in doing good seek for glory, honor, and immortality;
8 but to those who are self-seeking and ado not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness—indignation and wrath,  
9 tribulation and anguish, on every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew afirst and also of the Greek;  
10 abut glory, honor, and peace to everyone who works what is good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.  
11 For athere is no partiality with God.  
12 For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by the law
13 (for anot the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified;  
14 for when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, these, although not having the law, are a law to themselves,
15 who show the awork of the law written in their hearts, their bconscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else excusing them)  
16 ain the day when God will judge the secrets of men bby Jesus Christ, caccording to my gospel.  

The Jews Guilty as the Gentiles

17 Indeed ayou are called a Jew, and brest on the law, cand make your boast in God,  
18 and aknow His will, and bapprove the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law,
