Romans 2:12-15
English Standard Version
God's Judgment and the Law
12 For all who have sinned (A)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 (B)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, (C)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 (D)written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness, and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even excuse them

Romans 2:12-15
New International Version
12 All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law(A) 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(B) 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,(C) 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.)
Romans 13:8-10
English Standard Version
Fulfilling the Law Through Love
8 (A)Owe no one anything, except to love each other, for (B)the one who loves another has fulfilled the law. 9 For the commandments, (C)“You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,” and any other commandment, are summed up in this word: (D)“You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 10 Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore (E)love is the fulfilling of the law.

Love Fulfills the Law
8 Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law.(A) 9 The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,”[a](B) and whatever other command there may be, are summed up(C) in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”[b](D) 10 Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.(E)

Love Your Neighbor as Yourself
9 (A)“When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap your field right up to its edge, neither shall you gather the gleanings after your harvest. 10 And you shall not strip your vineyard bare, neither shall you gather the fallen grapes of your vineyard. You shall leave them for the poor and for the sojourner: I am the Lord your God.
11 (B)“You shall not steal; (C)you shall not deal falsely; you shall not lie to one another. 12 (D)You shall not swear by my name falsely, and so (E)profane the name of your God: I am the Lord.
13 (F)“You shall not oppress your neighbor or rob him. (G)The wages of a hired worker shall not remain with you all night until the morning. 14 (H)You shall not curse the deaf or put a stumbling block before the blind, but you shall (I)fear your God: I am the Lord.
15 (J)“You shall do no injustice in court. You shall not be partial to the poor or defer to the great, but in righteousness shall you judge your neighbor. 16 (K)You shall not go around as a slanderer among your people, and you shall not (L)stand up against the life[a] of your neighbor: I am the Lord.
17 (M)“You shall not hate your brother in your heart, but (N)you shall reason frankly with your neighbor, lest you (O)incur sin because of him. 18 (P)You shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against the sons of your own people, but (Q)you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord.
