ACV - Romans - 2

2:1  Therefore, O man, thou are without excuse, every man who judges, for in what thou judge the other man, thou condemn thyself, for the man who judges is doing the same things.

2:2  And we know that the judgment of God is in accordance with truth against those who commit such things.

2:3  And think thou this, O man who judge those who do such things and do the same, that thou will escape the judgment of God?

2:4  Or do thou despise the wealth of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God guides thee to repentance?

2:5  But according to thy hardness, and thy impenitent heart, thou store up wrath to thyself in the day of wrath, and revelation, and righteous judgment of God,

2:6  who will render to each man according to his works,

2:7  to those who indeed seek by perseverance of good work, glory and esteem and immortality-eternal life-

2:8  but to those of self-interest, and who indeed disobey the truth but have confidence in unrighteousness-anger and wrath,

2:9  pressure and restriction, upon every soul of man who produces evil, both of the Jew first, and of the Greek,

2:10  but glory and esteem and peace to every man who works good, both to the Jew first, and to the Greek.

2:11  For there is no partiality with God.

2:12  For as many as have sinned without law will also be destroyed without law, and as many as have sinned in law will be judged by law.

2:13  For the hearers of the law are not righteous with God, but the doers of the law will be made righteous.

2:14  For when the Gentiles who have no law do by nature the things of the law, these men, not having law, are a law to themselves.

2:15  Who show the work of the law written in their hearts, testifying of their conscience, and their thoughts amidst each other accusing or also defending them

2:16  in a day when God judges the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my good news.

2:17  Behold, thou are called a Jew, and rely upon the law, and boast in God,

2:18  and know his will, and approve the things that are significant, being instructed out of the law.

2:19  And thou have confidence in thyself to be a guide of the blind, a light of those in darkness,

2:20  a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of the childlike, having in the law the essence of knowledge and truth,

2:21  thou therefore who teach another, do thou not teach thyself? Thou who preach not to steal, do thou steal?

2:22  Thou who say not to commit adultery, do thou commit adultery? Thou who abhor idols, do thou rob temples?

2:23  Thou who boast in law, dishonor God by thy transgression of the law.

2:24  For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you, just as it is written.

2:25  For circumcision is indeed beneficial if thou perform law, but if thou are a transgressor of law, thy circumcision has become uncircumcision.

2:26  If therefore a man of uncircumcision keeps the ordinances of the law, will not his uncircumcision be considered circumcision?

2:27  And the man of natural uncircumcision who fulfills the law, will judge thee, a transgressor of law through a document and circumcision.

2:28  For he is not a Jew in what is visible, nor is circumcision in what is visible, in flesh,

2:29  but he is a Jew in what is hidden, and circumcision is of the heart, in spirit not a document, whose praise is not from men but from God.
