Romans 2:12-16
Revised Standard Version

12 All who have sinned 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 it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law who will be justified. 14 When Gentiles who have not the law do by nature what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that what the law requires is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness and their conflicting thoughts accuse or perhaps excuse them 16 on that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus.

Romans 2:12-16
American Standard Version

12 For as many as [a]have sinned without the law shall also perish without the law: and as many as [b]have sinned under the law shall be judged by the law; 13 for not the hearers of the law are [c]just before God, but the doers of the law shall be [d]justified; 14 (for when Gentiles that have not the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are the law unto themselves; 15 in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness therewith, and [e]their [f]thoughts one with another accusing or else excusing them); 16 in the day when God [g]shall judge the secrets of men, according to my [h]gospel, by Jesus Christ.
