| Romans 2:1 | Wherefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest. For wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself. For thou dost the same things which thou judgest. | So you have no reason, whoever you are, for judging: for in judging another you are judging yourself, for you do the same things. | Therefore you are without excuse, man, whoever you are who judge. For in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself. For you who judge practice the same things. |
| Romans 2:2 | For we know that the judgment of God is, according to truth, against them that do such things. | And we are conscious that God is a true judge against those who do such things. | We know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things. |
| Romans 2:3 | And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them who do such things, and dost the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? | But you who are judging another for doing what you do yourself, are you hoping that God's decision will not take effect against you? | Do you know this, O man who judges those who practice such things, and do the same, that you will escape the judgment of God? |
| Romans 2:4 | Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness, and patience, and longsuffering? Knowest thou not, that the benignity of God leadeth thee to penance? | Or is it nothing to you that God had pity on you, waiting and putting up with you for so long, not seeing that in his pity God's desire is to give you a change of heart? | Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance? |
| Romans 2:5 | But according to thy hardness and impenitent heart, thou treasurest up to thyself wrath, against the day of wrath, and revelation of the just judgment of God. | But by your hard and unchanged heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of the revelation of God's judging in righteousness; | But according to your hardness and impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; |
| Romans 2:6 | Who will render to every man according to his works. | Who will give to every man his right reward: | who "will render to every man according to his works:" |
| Romans 2:7 | To them indeed, who according to patience in good work, seek glory and honour and incorruption, eternal life: | To those who go on with good works in the hope of glory and honour and salvation from death, he will give eternal life: | to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and incorruptibility, eternal life; |
| Romans 2:8 | But to them that are contentious, and who obey not the truth, but give credit to iniquity, wrath and indignation. | But to those who, from a love of competition, are not guided by what is true, will come the heat of his wrath, | but to those who are self-seeking, and don't obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, will be wrath and indignation, |
| Romans 2:9 | Tribulation and anguish upon every soul of man that worketh evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Greek. | Trouble and sorrow on all whose works are evil, to the Jew first and then to the Greek; | oppression and anguish, on every soul of man who works evil, on the Jew first, and also on the Greek. |
| Romans 2:10 | But glory, and honour, and peace to every one that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. | But glory and honour and peace to all whose works are good, to the Jew first and then to the Greek: | But glory and honor and peace to every man who works good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. |
| Romans 2:11 | For there is no respect of persons with God. | For one man is not different from another before God. | For there is no partiality with God. |
| Romans 2:12 | For whosoever have sinned without the law, shall perish without the law; and whosoever have sinned in the law, shall be judged by the law. | All those who have done wrong without the law will get destruction without the law: and those who have done wrong under the law will have their punishment by the law; | For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without the law. As many as have sinned under the law will be judged by the law. |
| Romans 2:13 | For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. | For it is not the hearers of the law who will be judged as having righteousness before God, but only the doers: | For it isn't the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law will be justified |
| Romans 2:14 | For when the Gentiles, who have not the law, do by nature those things that are of the law; these having not the law are a law to themselves: | For when the Gentiles without the law have a natural desire to do the things in the law, they are a law to themselves; | (for when Gentiles who don't have the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are a law to themselves, |
| Romans 2:15 | Who shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness to them, and their thoughts between themselves accusing, or also defending one another, | Because the work of the law is seen in their hearts, their sense of right and wrong giving witness to it, while their minds are at one time judging them and at another giving them approval; | in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience testifying with them, and their thoughts among themselves accusing or else excusing them) |
| Romans 2:16 | In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel. | In the day when God will be a judge of the secrets of men, as it says in the good news of which I am a preacher, through Jesus Christ. | in the day when God will judge the secrets of men, according to my gospel, by Jesus Christ. |
| Romans 2:17 | But if thou art called a Jew and restest in the law, and makest thy boast of God, | But as for you who have the name of Jew, and are resting on the law, and take pride in God, | Indeed you bear the name of a Jew, and rest on the law, and glory in God, |
| Romans 2:18 | And knowest his will, and approvest the more profitable things, being instructed by the law, | And have knowledge of his desires, and are a judge of the things which are different, having the learning of the law, | and know his will, and approve the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law, |
| Romans 2:19 | Art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them that are in darkness, | In the belief that you are a guide to the blind, a light to those in the dark, | and are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light to those who are in darkness, |
| Romans 2:20 | An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of infants, having the form of knowledge and of truth in the law. | A teacher of the foolish, having in the law the form of knowledge and of what is true; | a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of babies, having in the law the form of knowledge and of the truth. |
| Romans 2:21 | Thou therefore that teachest another, teachest not thyself: thou that preachest that men should not steal, stealest: | You who give teaching to others, do you give it to yourself? you who say that a man may not take what is not his, do you take what is not yours? | You therefore who teach another, don't you teach yourself? You who preach that a man shouldn't steal, do you steal? |
| Romans 2:22 | Thou that sayest, men should not commit adultery, committest adultery: thou that abhorrest idols, committest sacrilege: | You who say that a man may not be untrue to his wife, are you true to yours? you who are a hater of images, do you do wrong to the house of God? | You who say a man shouldn't commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? |
| Romans 2:23 | Thou that makest thy boast of the law, by transgression of the law dishonourest God. | You who take pride in the law, are you doing wrong to the honour of God by behaviour which is against the law? | You who glory in the law, through your disobedience of the law do you dishonor God? |
| Romans 2:24 | (For the name of God through you is blasphemed among the Gentiles, as it is written.) | For the name of God is shamed among the Gentiles because of you, as it is said in the holy Writings. | For "the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you," just as it is written. |
| Romans 2:25 | Circumcision profiteth indeed, if thou keep the law; but if thou be a transgressor of the law, thy circumcision is made uncircumcision. | It is true that circumcision is of use if you keep the law, but if you go against the law it is as if you had it not. | For circumcision indeed profits, if you be a doer of the law, but if you be a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision. |
| Romans 2:26 | If, then, the uncircumcised keep the justices of the law, shall not this uncircumcision be counted for circumcision? | If those who have not circumcision keep the rules of the law, will it not be credited to them as circumcision? | If therefore the uncircumcised keep the ordinances of the law, won't his uncircumcision be accounted as circumcision? |
| Romans 2:27 | And shall not that which by nature is uncircumcision, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision art a transgressor of the law? | And they, by their keeping of the law without circumcision, will be judges of you, by whom the law is broken though you have the letter of the law and circumcision. | Won't the uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfills the law, judge you, who with the letter and circumcision are a transgressor of the law? |
| Romans 2:28 | For it is not he is a Jew, who is so outwardly; nor is that circumcision which is outwardly in the flesh: | The true Jew is not one who is only so publicly, and circumcision is not that which may be seen in the flesh: | For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh; |
| Romans 2:29 | But he is a Jew, that is one inwardly; and the circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God. | But he is a Jew who is a secret one, whose circumcision is of the heart, in the spirit and not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God. | but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God. |
