1. Therefore you are without excuse, whoever you are, when you judge someone else. For on whatever grounds you judge another, you condemn yourself, because you who judge practice the same things.
|
1. Therefore G1352 thou art G1488 inexcusable G379 , O G5599 man G444 , whosoever G3956 thou art that judgest G2919 : for G1063 wherein G1722 G3739 thou judgest G2919 another G2087 , thou condemnest G2632 thyself G4572 ; for G1063 thou that judgest G2919 doest G4238 the G3588 same things G846 .
|
|
2. Now we know that God's judgment is in accordance with truth against those who practice such things.
|
2. But G1161 we are sure G1492 that G3754 the G3588 judgment G2917 of God G2316 is G2076 according G2596 to truth G225 against G1909 them which commit G4238 such things G5108 .
|
|
3. And do you think, whoever you are, when you judge those who practice such things and yet do them yourself, that you will escape God's judgment?
|
3. And G1161 thinkest G3049 thou this G5124 , O G5599 man G444 , that judgest G2919 them which do G4238 such things G5108 , and G2532 doest G4160 the same G846 , that G3754 thou G4771 shalt escape G1628 the G3588 judgment G2917 of God G2316 ?
|
|
4. Or do you have contempt for the wealth of his kindness, forbearance, and patience, and yet do not know that God's kindness leads you to repentance?
|
4. Or G2228 despisest G2706 thou the G3588 riches G4149 of his G848 goodness G5544 and G2532 forbearance G463 and G2532 longsuffering G3115 ; not knowing G50 that G3754 the G3588 goodness G5543 of God G2316 leadeth G71 thee G4571 to G1519 repentance G3341 ?
|
|
5. But because of your stubbornness and your unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath for yourselves in the day of wrath, when God's righteous judgment is revealed!
|
5. But G1161 after G2596 thy G4675 hardness G4643 and G2532 impenitent G279 heart G2588 treasurest up G2343 unto thyself G4572 wrath G3709 against G1722 the day G2250 of wrath G3709 and G2532 revelation G602 of the righteous judgment G1341 of God G2316 ;
|
|
6. He will reward each one according to his works:
|
6. Who G3739 will render G591 to every man G1538 according G2596 to his G846 deeds G2041 :
|
|
7. eternal life to those who by perseverance in good works seek glory and honor and immortality,
|
7. To them who G3303 by G2596 patient continuance G5281 in well G18 doing G2041 seek for G2212 glory G1391 and G2532 honor G5092 and G2532 immortality G861 , eternal G166 life G2222 :
|
|
8. but wrath and anger to those who live in selfish ambition and do not obey the truth but follow unrighteousness.
|
8. But G1161 unto them that are contentious G1537 G2052 , and G2532 do not obey G544 G3303 the G3588 truth G225 , but G1161 obey G3982 unrighteousness G93 , indignation G2372 and G2532 wrath G3709 ,
|
|
9. There will be affliction and distress on everyone who does evil, on the Jew first and also the Greek,
|
9. Tribulation G2347 and G2532 anguish G4730 , upon G1909 every G3956 soul G5590 of man G444 that doeth G2716 evil G2556 , of the G5037 Jew G2453 first G4412 , and G2532 also of the Gentile G1672 ;
|
|
10. but glory and honor and peace for everyone who does good, for the Jew first and also the Greek.
|
10. But G1161 glory G1391 , honor G5092 , and G2532 peace G1515 , to every man G3956 that worketh G2038 good G18 , to the G5037 Jew G2453 first G4412 , and G2532 also to the Gentile G1672 :
|
|
11. For there is no partiality with God.
|
11. For G1063 there is G2076 no G3756 respect of persons G4382 with G3844 God G2316 .
|
|
12. For all who have sinned apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who have sinned under the law will be judged by the law.
|
12. For G1063 as many as G3745 have sinned G264 without law G460 shall also G2532 perish G622 without law G460 : and G2532 as many as G3745 have sinned G264 in G1722 the law G3551 shall be judged G2919 by G1223 the law G3551 ;
|
|
13. For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous before God, but those who do the law will be declared righteous.
|
13. ( For G1063 not G3756 the G3588 hearers G202 of the G3588 law G3551 are just G1342 before G3844 God G2316 , but G235 the G3588 doers G4163 of the G3588 law G3551 shall be justified G1344 .
|
|
14. For whenever the Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature the things required by the law, these who do not have the law are a law to themselves.
|
14. For G1063 when G3752 the Gentiles G1484 , which have G2192 not G3361 the law G3551 , do G4160 by nature G5449 the things G3588 contained in the G3588 law G3551 , these G3778 , having G2192 not G3361 the law G3551 , are G1526 a law G3551 unto themselves G1438 :
|
|
15. They show that the work of the law is written in their hearts, as their conscience bears witness and their conflicting thoughts accuse or else defend them,
|
15. Which G3748 show G1731 the G3588 work G2041 of the G3588 law G3551 written G1123 in G1722 their G848 hearts G2588 , their G848 conscience G4893 also bearing witness G4828 , and G2532 their thoughts G3053 the mean while G3342 accusing G2723 or G2228 else G2532 excusing G626 one another G240 ;)
|
|
16. on the day when God will judge the secrets of human hearts, according to my gospel through Christ Jesus.
|
16. In G1722 the day G2250 when G3753 God G2316 shall judge G2919 the G3588 secrets G2927 of men G444 by G1223 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 according G2596 to my G3450 gospel G2098 .
|
|
17. But if you call yourself a Jew and rely on the law and boast of your relationship to God
|
17. Behold G2396 , thou G4771 art called G2028 a Jew G2453 , and G2532 restest in G1879 the G3588 law G3551 , and G2532 makest thy boast G2744 of G1722 God G2316 ,
|
|
18. and know his will and approve the superior things because you receive instruction from the law,
|
18. And G2532 knowest G1097 his will G2307 , and G2532 approvest G1381 the things that are more excellent G1308 , being instructed G2727 out of G1537 the G3588 law G3551 ;
|
|
19. and if you are convinced that you yourself are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,
|
19. And G5037 art confident G3982 that thou thyself G4572 art G1511 a guide G3595 of the blind G5185 , a light G5457 of them G3588 which are in G1722 darkness G4655 ,
|
|
20. an educator of the senseless, a teacher of little children, because you have in the law the essential features of knowledge and of the truth�
|
20. An instructor G3810 of the foolish G878 , a teacher G1320 of babes G3516 , which hast G2192 the G3588 form G3446 of knowledge G1108 and G2532 of the G3588 truth G225 in G1722 the G3588 law G3551 .
|
|
21. therefore you who teach someone else, do you not teach yourself? You who preach against stealing, do you steal?
|
21. Thou therefore which teachest G1321 G3767 another G2087 , teachest G1321 thou not G3756 thyself G4572 ? thou that preachest G2784 a man should not G3361 steal G2813 , dost thou steal G2813 ?
|
|
22. You who tell others not to commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?
|
22. Thou that sayest G3004 a man should not G3361 commit adultery G3431 , dost thou commit adultery G3431 ? thou that abhorrest G948 idols G1497 , dost thou commit sacrilege G2416 ?
|
|
23. You who boast in the law dishonor God by transgressing the law!
|
23. Thou that G3739 makest thy boast G2744 of G1722 the law G3551 , through G1223 breaking G3847 the G3588 law G3551 dishonorest G818 thou God G2316 ?
|
|
24. For just as it is written, "the name of God is being blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you."
|
24. For G1063 the G3588 name G3686 of God G2316 is blasphemed G987 among G1722 the G3588 Gentiles G1484 through G1223 you G5209 , as G2531 it is written G1125 .
|
|
25. For circumcision has its value if you practice the law, but if you break the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.
|
25. For G1063 circumcision G4061 verily G3303 profiteth G5623 , if G1437 thou keep G4238 the law G3551 : but G1161 if G1437 thou be a breaker G3848 of the law G3551 , thy G4675 circumcision G4061 is made G1096 uncircumcision G203 .
|
|
26. Therefore if the uncircumcised man obeys the righteous requirements of the law, will not his uncircumcision be regarded as circumcision?
|
26. Therefore G3767 if G1437 the G3588 uncircumcision G203 keep G5442 the G3588 righteousness G1345 of the G3588 law G3551 , shall not G3780 his G848 uncircumcision G203 be counted G3049 for G1519 circumcision G4061 ?
|
|
27. And will not the physically uncircumcised man who keeps the law judge you who, despite the written code and circumcision, transgress the law?
|
27. And G2532 shall not uncircumcision G203 which is by G1537 nature G5449 , if it fulfill G5055 the G3588 law G3551 , judge G2919 thee G4571 , who by G1223 the letter G1121 and G2532 circumcision G4061 dost transgress G3848 the law G3551 ?
|
|
28. For a person is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision something that is outward in the flesh,
|
28. For G1063 he is G2076 not G3756 a Jew G2453 , which is one outwardly G1722 G5318 ; neither G3761 is that circumcision G4061 , which is outward G1722 G5318 in G1722 the flesh G4561 :
|
|
29. but someone is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is of the heart by the Spirit and not by the written code. This person's praise is not from people but from God.
|
29. But G235 he is a Jew G2453 , which is one inwardly G1722 G2927 ; and G2532 circumcision G4061 is that of the heart G2588 , in G1722 the spirit G4151 , and not G3756 in the letter G1121 ; whose G3739 praise G1868 is not G3756 of G1537 men G444 , but G235 of G1537 God G2316 .
