Romans 2:13-16
New American Standard Bible
13 for it is (A)not the hearers [a]of the Law who are [b]righteous before God, but the doers [c]of the Law who will be justified. 14 For when Gentiles who do not have [d]the Law [e](B)instinctively perform the requirements of the Law, these, though not having [f]the Law, are a law to themselves, 15 in that they show (C)the work of the Law written in their hearts, their conscience testifying and their thoughts alternately accusing or else defending them, 16 on the day when, (D)according to my gospel, (E)God will judge the secrets of mankind through Christ Jesus.

King James Version
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.
