Romans 2:1-11
1Therefore you are without excuse, man, whoever you are who judge. For in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself. For you who judge practice the same things.
2We know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things.
3Do you know this, O man who judges those who practice such things, and do the same, that you will escape the judgment of God?
4Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?
5But according to your hardness and impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;
6who "will render to every man according to his works:"
7to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and incorruptibility, eternal life;
8but to those who are self-seeking, and don`t obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, will be wrath and indignation,
9oppression and anguish, on every soul of man who works evil, on the Jew first, and also on the Greek.
10But glory and honor and peace to every man who works good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
11For there is no partiality with God.
