  • Rom 1:18-2:29 : 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness; 19 Because what may be known of God is manifest in them; for God has shown it to them. 20 For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: 21 Because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23 And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man, and to birds and four-footed beasts and creeping things. 24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies among themselves, 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. 26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions: for even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. 27 And likewise the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another; men with men working what is shameful, and receiving in themselves that penalty of their error which was fitting. 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; 29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, 30 Backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 Undiscerning, untrustworthy, without natural affection, unmerciful: 32 Who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same, but also approve of those who practice them. 1 Therefore you are without excuse, O man, whoever you are that judges: for in what you judge another, you condemn yourself; for you who judge do the same things. 2 But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who commit such things. 3 And do you think this, O man, who judges those who do such things, and do the same, that you shall escape the judgment of God? 4 Or do you despise the riches of His goodness and tolerance and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance? 5 But because of your hardness and unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath for yourself against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; 6 Who will render to each person according to his deeds: 7 To those who by patient continuance in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life: 8 But to those who are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, 9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile; 10 But glory, honor, and peace, to every man who works good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile: 11 For there is no partiality with God. 12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned under the law shall be judged by the law; 13 For it is not the hearers of the law who are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. 14 For when the Gentiles, who do not have 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 witness, and their thoughts alternately accusing or else excusing each other;) 16 In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel. 17 Behold, you are called a Jew, and rest in the law, and make your boast of God, 18 And know His will, and approve the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law; 19 And are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light to those who are in darkness, 20 An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of infants, who have the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law. 21 You therefore who teach another, do you not teach yourself? You who preach that a man should not steal, do you steal? 22 You who say a man should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you commit sacrilege? 23 You who make your boast of the law, through breaking the law do you dishonor God? 24 For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you, as it is written. 25 For circumcision truly profits if you keep the law: but if you are a breaker of the law, your circumcision is made uncircumcision. 26 Therefore if the uncircumcised keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted as circumcision? 27 And shall not the uncircumcised which is by nature, if it fulfills the law, judge you, who by the letter and circumcision 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.
