CHAP. II.
1 They that sinne, though they condemne it in others, cannot excuse themselues, 6 and much lesse escape the iudgement of God, 9 whether they be Iewes or Gentiles. 14 The Gentiles cannot escape, 17 nor yet the Iewes, 25 whom their Circumcision shall not profit, if they keepe not the Law.
5 But after thy hardnesse, and impenitent heart, treasurest vp vnto thy selfe wrath, against the day of wrath, and reuelation of the righteous iudgement of God:5
6 Who will render to euery man according to his deedes:6
9 Tribulation, and anguish vpon euery soule of man that doeth euill, of the Iew first, and also of the Gentile.9
10 But glory, honour, and peace, to euery man that worketh good, to the Iew first, and also to the Gentile.10
11 For there is no respect of persons with God.
13 (For not the hearers of the Law are iust before God, but the doers of the Law shalbe iustified;
15 Which shew the worke of the Law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witnesse, and their thoughts the meane while accusing, or else excusing one another:15
16 In the day when God shall iudge the secrets of men by Iesus Christ, according to my Gospel.
17 Behold, thou art called a Iew, and restest in the Law, and makest thy boast of God:
18 And knowest his will, and approuest the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the Law,18
23 Thou that makest thy boast of the Law, through breaking the Law dishonourest thou God?
24 For the Name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles, through you, as it is written:24
