\subsection{Romans 2}
|
|
\VS{1} Therefore you are without defense, O every judging man, for when you judge
|
|
the other, you condemn yourself.
|
|
\VS{2} For we know that the judgment of God
|
|
is according to truth upon those practicing such [things].
|
|
\VS{3} So do you consider
|
|
this, O man judging those practicing such [things] and doing them [yourself], that you escape
|
|
the judgment of God?
|
|
\VS{4} Or do you despise the wealth of his generosity
|
|
and forbearance and patience, being ignorant that the kindness of God brings
|
|
you to repentance?
|
|
\VS{5} So according to your hardness and unrepentant
|
|
heart you treasure up to yourselves wrath in [the] day of wrath and revelation of
|
|
[the] just judgment of God,
|
|
\VS{6} who will render\footnote{or ``repay''} to each
|
|
according to his works,
|
|
\VS{7} to those according to endurance of [the] good work
|
|
seeking glory and honor and immortality: eternal zoe-life\fnZoe{},
|
|
\VS{8} but to those
|
|
of selfish ambition and [those] being disobedient to the truth but being obedient
|
|
to injustice: wrath and rage.
|
|
\VS{9} Affliction and anguish [is] upon every psyche-life\fnPsyche{}
|
|
of man doing evil, of [the] Jew first and also of [the] Greek.
|
|
\VS{10} But glory and
|
|
honor and peace to all working good, to [the] Jew first and also to [the] Greek.
|
|
\VS{11} For there is no partiality with God.
|
|
\VS{12} For as many as sin
|
|
without [the] law, they will also be released without [the] law; and as many as sin in
|
|
[the] law, they will be judged through [the] law ---
|
|
\VS{13} for not the hearer of
|
|
[the] law is just before God, but [rather] the doer of the law is justified.
|
|
\VS{14} For
|
|
when the nations\footnote{i.e. the Gentiles''} not having the law do by
|
|
nature the [things] of the law, these not having [the] law are law in themselves.
|
|
\VS{15}
|
|
These demonstrate the work of the law written in their hearts, their
|
|
conscience co-witnessing and between reciprocal reasonings accusing and
|
|
defending ---
|
|
\VS{16} in which day God judges the hidden [things] of men according
|
|
to my good-news through Christ Jesus.
|
|
\VS{17} So if you be named Jew, you
|
|
also rely on\footnote{or ``rest in''} the law and boast in God,
|
|
\VS{18} and
|
|
you know [his] will and approve the important [things] instructing from the law,
|
|
\VS{19}
|
|
and have persuaded yourself to be guide of the blind, light of [those] in darkness,
|
|
\VS{20} instructor of the ignorant, teacher of children, having the
|
|
embodiment\footnote{or ``outward form''} of knowledge and truth in the law.
|
|
\VS{21} Therefore you teaching another, don't you teach yourself? You
|
|
proclaiming to not be stealing, don't you steal?
|
|
\VS{22} You saying to not
|
|
be committing adultery, don't you commit adultery? You abhorring idols, do
|
|
you rob temples?
|
|
\VS{23} You who boast in the law, through transgression of
|
|
the law don't you dishonor God?
|
|
\VS{24} For the name of God through you is
|
|
slandered among the nations\footnote{i.e. the Gentiles}, just as it is
|
|
written.
|
|
\VS{25} For indeed circumcision profits if you practice [the] law. But
|
|
if you be [a] transgressor of the law, your circumcision is become
|
|
uncircumcision.
|
|
\VS{26} If therefore the uncircumcised guard the just
|
|
[things] of the law, is not his uncircumcision reckoned to circumcision?
|
|
\VS{27} And
|
|
the uncircumcised from nature will judge you transgressor of [the] law, [you whom] the law
|
|
has completed through letter and circumcision.
|
|
\VS{28} For one is not Jew in
|
|
the manifest [thing], neither [is] the circumcision in the manifest [thing] in the flesh,
|
|
\VS{29} but [one is] Jew in the secret [thing], and circumcision [is] of [the] heart in [the] spirit, not
|
|
in [the] letter, the praise of which is not from men but from God.
