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.

2:2  And we know that the judgment of God rightly falls upon those who practice such things.

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?

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?

2:5  But because of your stubbornness and unrepentant heart you have stored up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God,

2:6  who WILL RENDER TO EACH PERSON ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS:

2:7  to those who by perseverance in doing good seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life;

2:8  but to those who act selfishly ambitious and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, wrath and indignation.

2:9  There will come tribulation and distress for every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek,

2:10   but glory and honor and peace to everyone who does good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

2:11   11For God does not show partiality.

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 receive judgment by the Law;

2:13  for God does not justify the hearers of the Law, but justifies the doers of the Law .

2:14  For when Gentiles who do not have the Law do instinctively the things of the Law, these, not having the Law, act lawfully by themselves,

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,

2:16  on the day when, according to my gospel, God will judge the secrets of men through Christ Jesus.

2:17  But if you bear the name "Jew" and rely upon the Law and boast in God,

2:18  and know His will and approve the essential things , receiving instructions out of the Law,

2:19  and have confidence that you yourself can guide the blind, a light to those who dwell in darkness,

2:20  a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of the immature, having in the Law the embodiment of knowledge and of the truth,

2:21  you, therefore, who teach another, do you not teach yourself? You who preach that one shall not steal, do you steal?

2:22   You who say that one should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?

2:23  You who boast in the Law, through your breaking the Law, do you dishonor God?

2:24  For " THE NAME OF GOD HAS BECOME BLASPHEMED AMONG THE GENTILES BECAUSE OF YOU," just as the scriptures read.

2:25  For indeed circumcision has value if you practice the Law; but if you transgress the Law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.

2:26   So if the uncircumcised man keeps the requirements of the Law, will not his uncircumcision become equivalent to circumcision?

2:27  And he who has not undergone physical uncircumcision, if he keeps the Law, will he not judge you who though having the letter of the Law and circumcision a transgressor of the Law?

2:28  For he cannot claim Jewishness who has the outward characteristics, nor does outward fleshly circumcision qualify him.

2:29  But he can call himself a Jew who behaves lawfully inwardly; and has received circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter; and his praise does not come from men, but from God.
