Romans 1:32-2:8

English Standard Version

³² Though they know ^(A)God's righteous decree that those who practice such things ^(B)deserve to die, they not only do them but ^(C)give approval to those who practice them.

God's Righteous Judgment

2 Therefore you have ^(D)no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For ^(E)in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things. ² We know that the judgment of God rightly falls on those who practice such things. ³ Do you suppose, O man—you who judge those who practice such things and yet do them yourself—that you will escape the judgment of God? ⁴ Or do you presume on ^(F)the riches of his kindness and ^(G)forbearance and ^(H)patience, ^(I)not knowing that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance? ⁵ But because of your hard and impenitent heart you are ^(J)storing up ^(K)wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God's righteous judgment will be revealed.

^6 (L)He will render to each one according to his works: ⁷ to those who ^(M)by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life; ⁸ but for those who are self-seeking^[a] and ^(N)do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, there will be wrath and fury.
