33 (A)But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: (B)I will put my law within them, and I will write it (C)on their hearts. (D)And I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 34 And no longer shall each one teach his neighbour and each his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord’, (E)for they shall all know me, (F)from the least of them to the greatest, declares the Lord. For (G)I will forgive their iniquity, and (H)I will remember their sin no more.”

33 “This is the covenant I will make with the people of Israel
    after that time,” declares the Lord.
“I will put my law in their minds(A)
    and write it on their hearts.(B)
I will be their God,
    and they will be my people.(C)
34 No longer will they teach(D) their neighbor,
    or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’
because they will all know(E) me,
    from the least of them to the greatest,”
declares the Lord.
“For I will forgive(F) their wickedness
    and will remember their sins(G) no more.”

(A)He will render to each one according to his works: to those who (B)by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, he will give eternal life; but for those who are self-seeking[a] and (C)do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, there will be wrath and fury. There will be tribulation and distress (D)for every human being who does evil, the Jew (E)first and also the Greek, 10 but glory and honour and (F)peace for everyone who does good, (G)the Jew first and also the Greek. 11 For (H)God shows no partiality.

God's Judgement and the Law

12 For all who have sinned (I)without the law will also perish without the law, and all who have sinned under the law will be judged by the law. 13 For (J)it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law who will be justified. 14 For when Gentiles, who do not have the law, (K)by nature do what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that the work of the law is (L)written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness, and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even excuse them 16 (M)on that day when, (N)according to my gospel, God judges (O)the secrets of men (P)by Christ Jesus.

  1. Romans 2:8 Or contentious

God “will repay each person according to what they have done.”[a](A) To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor(B) and immortality,(C) he will give eternal life.(D) But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil,(E) there will be wrath and anger.(F) There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil:(G) first for the Jew, then for the Gentile;(H) 10 but glory, honor and peace for everyone who does good: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile.(I) 11 For God does not show favoritism.(J)

12 All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law(K) will be judged by the law. 13 For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God’s sight, but it is those who obey(L) the law who will be declared righteous. 14 (Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law,(M) they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts sometimes accusing them and at other times even defending them.) 16 This will take place on the day when God judges people’s secrets(N) through Jesus Christ,(O) as my gospel(P) declares.
