The Scriptures 1998

Romans 2:1-16 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

1. Therefore, O man, you are without excuse, everyone who judges, for in which you judge another you condemn yourself, since you who judge practise the same wrongs.

2. And we know that the judgment of Elohim is according to truth against those who practise such wrongs.

3. And do you think, O man, you who judge those practising such wrongs, and doing the same, that you shall escape the judgment of Elohim?

4. Or do you despise the riches of His kindness, and tolerance, and patience, not knowing that the kindness of Elohim leads you to repentance?

5. But according to your hardness and your unrepentant heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of Elohim,

6. who “shall render to each one according to his works”:

7. everlasting life to those who by persistence in good work seek for esteem, and respect, and incorruptibility;

8. but wrath and displeasure to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness;

9. affliction and distress on every human being working what is evil, of the Yehuḏite first, and also of the Greek;

10. but esteem, respect, and peace to everyone working what is good, to the Yehuḏite first and also to the Greek.

11. For there is no partiality with Elohim.

12. For as many as sinned without Torah shall also perish without Torah, and as many as sinned in the Torah shall be judged by the Torah.

13. For not the hearers of the Torah are righteous in the sight of Elohim, but the doers of the law shall be declared right.

14. For when gentiles, who do not have the Torah, by nature do what is in the Torah, although not having the Torah, they are a Torah to themselves,

15. who show the work of the Torah written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or even excusing,

16. in the day when Elohim shall judge the secrets of men through יהושע Messiah, according to my Good News.
