上帝公义的审判

因此,你这论断人的啊,不管你是谁,都难逃罪责。你在什么事上论断别人,就在什么事上定了自己的罪,因为你论断别人的事,自己也在做。 我们都知道,上帝必按真理审判做这些事的人。 你这人啊,你论断别人,自己却做同样的事,你以为自己能逃脱上帝的审判吗? 还是你藐视祂深厚的慈爱、宽容和忍耐,不知道祂的慈爱是要引导你悔改吗? 你这样硬着心不肯悔改等于是为自己积蓄烈怒,上帝的烈怒在祂施行公义审判的那天必临到你。 上帝必照各人的行为施行赏罚。 凡是恒心行善、寻求荣耀、尊贵和永恒福分的人,祂要把永生赐给他们; 至于那些自私自利、违背真理、行为不义的人,祂的烈怒和怒气要降在他们身上。 一切作恶之人必受患难和痛苦,先是犹太人,然后是希腊人。 10 祂要将荣耀、尊贵和平安赐给一切行善的人,先是犹太人,然后是希腊人。 11 因为上帝不偏待人。

12 没有上帝律法的人若犯罪,虽然不按律法受审判,仍要灭亡;有上帝律法的人若犯罪,必按律法受审判。 13 因为上帝眼中的义人不是听到律法的人,而是遵行律法的人。 14 没有律法的外族人若顺着天性做合乎律法的事,他们虽然没有律法,自己就是自己的律法。 15 这表明律法的要求刻在他们心里,他们的良心也可以证明,因为他们的思想有时指控他们,有时为他们辩护。 16 按照我所传的福音,到了审判之日,上帝要借着耶稣基督审判人一切隐秘的事。

犹太人与律法

17 你自称是犹太人,倚仗上帝所赐的律法,自夸与上帝有特别的关系; 18 你受过律法的教导,知道上帝的旨意,能明辨是非; 19 你自信可以做盲人的向导、黑暗中的人的光、 20 愚昧人的师傅、小孩子的老师,因为你从律法中得到了知识和真理。 21 那么,你这教导别人的,为什么不教导自己呢?你教导人不可偷盗,自己却偷盗吗? 22 你告诉他人不可通奸,自己却通奸吗?你憎恶偶像,自己却去偷庙里的东西吗? 23 你以律法自夸,自己却违犯律法羞辱上帝吗? 24 正如圣经上说:“因你们的缘故,上帝的名在外族人中受到亵渎!”

25 如果你遵行律法,割礼才有价值;如果你违犯律法,受了割礼也如同未受割礼。 26 如果未受割礼的人遵行律法的教导,他岂不算是受了割礼吗? 27 身体未受割礼却遵行律法的人,必审判你这有律法条文、受了割礼却违犯律法的人。 28 因为徒具外表的犹太人不是真正的犹太人,身体上的割礼也不是真正的割礼。 29 唯有从心里做犹太人的才是真犹太人,真割礼是借着圣灵在心里受的割礼,不在于律法条文。这样的人得到的称赞不是从人来的,而是从上帝来的。

διο αναπολογητος ει ω ανθρωπε πας ο κρινων εν ω γαρ κρινεις τον ετερον σεαυτον κατακρινεις τα γαρ αυτα πρασσεις ο κρινων

οιδαμεν δε οτι το κριμα του θεου εστιν κατα αληθειαν επι τους τα τοιαυτα πρασσοντας

λογιζη δε τουτο ω ανθρωπε ο κρινων τους τα τοιαυτα πρασσοντας και ποιων αυτα οτι συ εκφευξη το κριμα του θεου

η του πλουτου της χρηστοτητος αυτου και της ανοχης και της μακροθυμιας καταφρονεις αγνοων οτι το χρηστον του θεου εις μετανοιαν σε αγει

κατα δε την σκληροτητα σου και αμετανοητον καρδιαν θησαυριζεις σεαυτω οργην εν ημερα οργης και αποκαλυψεως δικαιοκρισιας του θεου

ος αποδωσει εκαστω κατα τα εργα αυτου

τοις μεν καθ υπομονην εργου αγαθου δοξαν και τιμην και αφθαρσιαν ζητουσιν ζωην αιωνιον

τοις δε εξ εριθειας και απειθουσιν μεν τη αληθεια πειθομενοις δε τη αδικια θυμος και οργη

θλιψις και στενοχωρια επι πασαν ψυχην ανθρωπου του κατεργαζομενου το κακον ιουδαιου τε πρωτον και ελληνος

10 δοξα δε και τιμη και ειρηνη παντι τω εργαζομενω το αγαθον ιουδαιω τε πρωτον και ελληνι

11 ου γαρ εστιν προσωποληψια παρα τω θεω

12 οσοι γαρ ανομως ημαρτον ανομως και απολουνται και οσοι εν νομω ημαρτον δια νομου κριθησονται

13 ου γαρ οι ακροαται του νομου δικαιοι παρα τω θεω αλλ οι ποιηται του νομου δικαιωθησονται

14 οταν γαρ εθνη τα μη νομον εχοντα φυσει τα του νομου ποιη ουτοι νομον μη εχοντες εαυτοις εισιν νομος

15 οιτινες ενδεικνυνται το εργον του νομου γραπτον εν ταις καρδιαις αυτων συμμαρτυρουσης αυτων της συνειδησεως και μεταξυ αλληλων των λογισμων κατηγορουντων η και απολογουμενων

16 εν ημερα οτε κρινει ο θεος τα κρυπτα των ανθρωπων κατα το ευαγγελιον μου δια ιησου χριστου

17 ιδε συ ιουδαιος επονομαζη και επαναπαυη τω νομω και καυχασαι εν θεω

18 και γινωσκεις το θελημα και δοκιμαζεις τα διαφεροντα κατηχουμενος εκ του νομου

19 πεποιθας τε σεαυτον οδηγον ειναι τυφλων φως των εν σκοτει

20 παιδευτην αφρονων διδασκαλον νηπιων εχοντα την μορφωσιν της γνωσεως και της αληθειας εν τω νομω

21 ο ουν διδασκων ετερον σεαυτον ου διδασκεις ο κηρυσσων μη κλεπτειν κλεπτεις

22 ο λεγων μη μοιχευειν μοιχευεις ο βδελυσσομενος τα ειδωλα ιεροσυλεις

23 ος εν νομω καυχασαι δια της παραβασεως του νομου τον θεον ατιμαζεις

24 το γαρ ονομα του θεου δι υμας βλασφημειται εν τοις εθνεσιν καθως γεγραπται

25 περιτομη μεν γαρ ωφελει εαν νομον πρασσης εαν δε παραβατης νομου ης η περιτομη σου ακροβυστια γεγονεν

26 εαν ουν η ακροβυστια τα δικαιωματα του νομου φυλασση ουχι η ακροβυστια αυτου εις περιτομην λογισθησεται

27 και κρινει η εκ φυσεως ακροβυστια τον νομον τελουσα σε τον δια γραμματος και περιτομης παραβατην νομου

28 ου γαρ ο εν τω φανερω ιουδαιος εστιν ουδε η εν τω φανερω εν σαρκι περιτομη

29 αλλ ο εν τω κρυπτω ιουδαιος και περιτομη καρδιας εν πνευματι ου γραμματι ου ο επαινος ουκ εξ ανθρωπων αλλ εκ του θεου

Therefore dio you are eimi without excuse anapologētos, whoever you are ō, when you ho judge krinō someone else, for gar in en that hos which you judge krinō · ho another heteros, you condemn katakrinō yourself seautou, for gar you ho who judge krinō are practicing prassō the ho same things autos. And de we know oida that hoti the ho judgment krima of ho God theos is eimi according kata to truth alētheia with epi respect to those ho who practice prassō · ho such toioutos things . Do you suppose logizomai, · de this houtos, whoever you are ō, when you ho judge krinō those ho who practice prassō · ho such toioutos things yet kai do poieō them autos yourself, that hoti you sy will escape ekpheugō the ho judgment krima of ho God theos? Or ē do you hold in contempt kataphroneō the ho riches ploutos of ho his autos kindness chrēstotēs and kai · ho forbearance anochē and kai · ho patience makrothumia, not agnoeō knowing that hoti · ho God’ s theos kindness chrēstos · ho is meant to lead agō you sy to eis repentance metanoia? But de because kata of · ho your sy stubbornness sklērotēs and kai your unrepentant heart kardia, you are storing thēsaurizō up wrath orgē for yourself seautou on en the day hēmera of wrath orgē, when kai God’ s theos righteous judgment dikaiokrisia will be revealed apokalypsis, · ho who hos will give apodidōmi to each hekastos person according kata to what ho he autos has done ergon: to those ho who zēteō by kata patiently hypomonē doing good agathos works ergon seek for zēteō glory doxa and kai honor timē and kai immortality aphtharsia, he will give eternal aiōnios life zōē; but de to those ho who are self-seeking ek and kai do not obey apeitheō the ho truth alētheia but de obey peithō · ho unrighteousness adikia, there will be wrath orgē and kai fury thumos. There will be tribulation thlipsis and kai distress stenochōria for epi every pas human anthrōpos being psychē who ho does katergazomai · ho evil kakos, for the Jew Ioudaios first prōton and kai also for the Greek Hellēn, 10 but de glory doxa and kai honor timē and kai peace eirēnē for everyone pas who ho does ergazomai · ho good agathos, for the Jew Ioudaios first prōton and kai also for the Greek Hellēn.

11 For gar there is eimi no ou favoritism prosōpolēmpsia with para · ho God theos: 12 for gar all hosos who have sinned hamartanō apart from the law anomōs will apollymi also kai perish apollymi apart from the law anomōs, and kai all hosos who have sinned hamartanō under en the law nomos will be judged krinō by dia the law nomos; 13 for gar it is not ou the ho hearers akroatēs of the law nomos who are righteous dikaios before para · ho God theos, but alla the ho doers poiētēs of the law nomos who will be declared dikaioō righteous . 14 For gar whenever hotan the Gentiles ethnos, who ho do echō not have echō the law nomos, do poieō by nature physis the ho things required by the ho law nomos, these houtos, although they do not have echō the law nomos, are eimi a law nomos to themselves heautou. 15 They hostis show endeiknymi that the ho work ergon of the ho law nomos is written graptos on en · ho their autos hearts kardia, their autos conscience syneidēsis bearing symmartyreō witness · ho and kai their allēlōn conflicting metaxy · ho thoughts logismos accusing katēgoreō or ē else kai defending apologeomai them , 16 on en the day hēmera when hote God theos judges krinō · ho the ho secrets kryptos of ho everyone anthrōpos according kata to · ho my egō gospel euangelion through dia Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous.

17 But de if ei you sy call yourself eponomazō a Jew Ioudaios, and kai rely epanapauomai on the law nomos, and kai boast kauchaomai in en God theos, 18 and kai know ginōskō his ho will thelēma, and kai approve dokimazō the ho things that excel diapherō because you are instructed katēcheō by ek the ho law nomos, 19 and te are convinced peithō that you yourself seautou are eimi a guide hodēgos of the blind typhlos, a light phōs for those ho who are in en darkness skotos, 20 a corrector paideutēs of the foolish aphrōn, a teacher didaskalos of little nēpios children , having echō in en the ho law nomos the ho embodiment morphōsis of ho knowledge gnōsis and kai of ho truth alētheia 21 you ho, then oun, who teach didaskō others heteros, will you not ou teach didaskō yourself seautou? You ho who preach kēryssō against stealing kleptō, do you steal kleptō? 22 You ho who tell legō others not to commit moicheuō adultery , do you commit moicheuō adultery ? You ho who abhor bdelyssomai · ho idols eidōlon, do you rob temples hierosyleō? 23 You who hos boast kauchaomai in en the law nomos, by dia your ho breaking parabasis of the ho law nomos you dishonor atimazō · ho God theos! 24 For gar as kathōs it is written graphō, “ On account of dia you hymeis the ho name onoma of ho God theos is being blasphemed blasphēmeō among en the ho Gentiles ethnos.” 25 For gar to be sure men, circumcision peritomē is of value ōpheleō if ean you practice prassō the law nomos, but de if ean you are eimi a transgressor parabatēs of the law nomos, · ho your sy circumcision peritomē has become ginomai uncircumcision akrobystia. 26 Therefore oun if ean the ho uncircumcised akrobystia man keeps phylassō the ho righteous dikaiōma requirements of the ho law nomos, will logizomai not ou · ho his autos uncircumcision akrobystia be counted logizomai as eis circumcision peritomē? 27 And kai will krinō not the ho one who teleō by ek nature physis is uncircumcised akrobystia yet fulfills teleō the ho law nomos judge krinō you sy who ho have dia the written gramma code and kai circumcision peritomē yet are a transgressor parabatēs of the law nomos? 28 For gar that person is not ou a ho Jew Ioudaios who is eimi one outwardly en ho, · ho nor oude is · ho circumcision peritomē that which is outward en ho · ho in en the flesh sarx. 29 But alla a person is a Jew Ioudaios who ho is one inwardly en ho, · ho and kai circumcision peritomē is a matter of the heart kardia, by en the Spirit pneuma and not ou by the written gramma code . That person’ s hos · ho praise epainos comes not ou from ek man anthrōpos but alla from ek · ho God theos.

Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.

But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.

And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

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;

Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

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.
