and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?
5
But after
thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and
revelation of the righteous judgment of God;
6
Who will render to every man according to his deeds:
7
To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality,
eternal life:
8
But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness,
indignation and wrath,
9
Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the
Jew first, and also of the Gentile;
10
But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good,
to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:
11
For there is no respect of persons with God.
12
For as
many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the
law shall be judged by the law;
13
(For not the hearers of the law
are
just before God, but the doers
of the law shall be justified.
14
For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the
things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
15
Which shew
the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and
their
thoughts
the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)
16
In the day when God shall judge the
secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.
17
Behold, thou art called a Jew, and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God,
18
And
knowest
his
will, and approvest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;
19
And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,
20
An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth
in the law.
21
Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest
a man should not steal, dost thou steal?
22
Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost
thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?
23
Thou that makest
thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?
24
For the name of God is
blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.
25
For circumcision verily profiteth,
if thou keep the law: but if thou be a breaker of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision.
26
Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision
be counted for circumcision?
27
And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law,
judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law?
28
For he is not a Jew, which
is one outwardly; neither
is that
circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
29
But he
is
a Jew,
which is one inwardly; and circumcision
is that
of the heart, in the spirit,
and
not in the letter; whose
praise
is
not of men, but of God.
CHAPTER 3
What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit
is there
of circumcision?
2
Much every way:
chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.
3
For what if some did not
believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?
4
God forbid: yea, let God be
