Textus Receptus Bibles
Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
2:1 | Therefore, O man, you are without excuse, everyone who judges, for in that in which you judge the other, you condemn yourself; for you, those judging, practice the same things. |
2:2 | But we know that the judgment of God is according to truth on those that practice such things. |
2:3 | And, O man, the one judging those practicing such things, and doing them, do you think that you will escape the judgment of God? |
2:4 | Or do you despise the riches of His kindness, and the forbearance and the longsuffering, not knowing that the kindness of God leads you to repentance? |
2:5 | But according to your hardness and your impenitent heart, do you treasure up to yourself wrath in a day of wrath, and revelation of a righteous judgment of God? |
2:6 | He "will give to each according to his works:" LXX-Psa. 61:13; MT-Psa. 62:12 |
2:7 | everlasting life truly to those who with patience in good work are seeking glory and honor and incorruptibility; |
2:8 | but to those even disobeying the truth, out of self interest, and obeying unrighteousness, will be anger and wrath, |
2:9 | trouble and pain on every soul of man that works out evil, both of Jew first, and of Greek. |
2:10 | But glory and honor and peace will be to everyone that works out good, both to the Jew first, and to the Greek. |
2:11 | For there is no respect of persons with God. |
2:12 | For as many as sinned without Law will also perish without Law. And as many as sinned within Law will be judged through Law. |
2:13 | For not the hearers of the Law are just with God, but the doers of the Law shall be justified. |
2:14 | For when nations not having Law do by nature the things of the Law, they not having Law are a law to themselves, |
2:15 | who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience witnessing with them , and the thoughts between one another accusing or even excusing, |
2:16 | in a day when God judges the hidden things of men, according to my gospel, through Jesus Christ. |
2:17 | Behold, you are called a Jew, and rest in the Law, and boast in God, |
2:18 | and know the will, and approve the things excelling, being instructed out of the Law, |
2:19 | and persuading yourself to be a guide of blind ones, a light to those in darkness, |
2:20 | an instructor of foolish ones, a teacher of infants, having the form of knowledge and of the truth in the Law. |
2:21 | Then the one teaching another, do you not teach yourself? The one preaching not to steal, do you steal? |
2:22 | The one saying not to commit adultery, do you commit adultery? The one detesting the idols, do you rob temples? |
2:23 | You who boast in Law, do you dishonor God through transgression of the Law? |
2:24 | For the name of God is blasphemed among the nations through you, even as it has been written: Isa. 52:5 |
2:25 | For indeed circumcision profits if you practice the Law, but if you are a transgressor of Law, your circumcision becomes uncircumcision. |
2:26 | If, then, the uncircumcision keeps the demands of the Law, will not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision? |
2:27 | And will not the uncircumcision by nature by keeping the Law judge you, the one who through letter and circumcision becomes transgressor of Law? |
2:28 | For he is not a Jew that is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that outwardly in flesh; |
2:29 | but he is a Jew that is one inwardly, and circumcision is of heart, in spirit, not in letter; of whom the praise is not from men, but from God. |
