Προς Ρωμαιους 2

1 διο αναπολογητοσ ει ω ανθρωπε πασ ο κρινων εν ω γαρ κρινεισ τον ετερον σεαυτον κατακρινεισ τα γαρ αυτα πρασσεισ ο κρινων

Therefore you are without excuse, everyone of you who passes judgment. For in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself. For you who judge practice the same things.

2 οιδαμεν δε οτι το κριμα του θεου εστιν κατα αληθειαν επι τουσ τα τοιαυτα πρασσοντασ

Now we know that the judgment of God is in accordance with truth against those who practice such things.

3 λογιζη δε τουτο ω ανθρωπε ο κρινων τουσ τα τοιαυτα πρασσοντασ και ποιων αυτα οτι συ εκφευξη το κριμα του θεου

And do you think this, you who judge those who practice such things, and do the same, that you will escape the judgment of God?

4 η του πλουτου τησ χρηστοτητοσ αυτου και τησ ανοχησ και τησ μακροθυμιασ καταφρονεισ αγνοων οτι το χρηστον του θεου εισ μετανοιαν σε αγει

Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?

5 κατα δε την σκληροτητα σου και αμετανοητον καρδιαν θησαυριζεισ σεαυτω οργην εν ημερα οργησ και αποκαλυψεωσ και δικαιοκρισιασ του θεου

But according to your hardness and unrepentant heart you are storing up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;

6 οσ αποδωσει εκαστω κατα τα εργα αυτου

who "will pay back to everyone according to their works:"

7 τοισ μεν καθ υπομονην εργου αγαθου δοξαν και τιμην και αφθαρσιαν ζητουσιν ζωην αιωνιον (aiōnios g166)

to those who by perseverance in good works seek glory and honor and immortality -- everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)

8 τοισ δε εξ εριθειασ και απειθουσιν μεν τη αληθεια πειθομενοισ δε τη αδικια θυμοσ και οργη

But to those who are self-seeking, and do not obey the truth, but obey wickedness -- wrath and anger,

9 θλιψισ και στενοχωρια επι πασαν ψυχην ανθρωπου του κατεργαζομενου το κακον ιουδαιου τε πρωτον και ελληνοσ

affliction and distress, on every human being who does evil, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

10 δοξα δε και τιμη και ειρηνη παντι τω εργαζομενω το αγαθον ιουδαιω τε πρωτον και ελληνι

But glory, honor, and peace for everyone who does good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

11 ου γαρ εστιν προσωποληψια παρα τω θεω

For there is no partiality with God.

12 οσοι γαρ ανομωσ ημαρτον ανομωσ και απολουνται και οσοι εν νομω ημαρτον δια νομου κριθησονται

For as many as have sinned without the law will also perish without the law. As many as have sinned under the law will be judged by the law.

13 ου γαρ οι ακροαται του νομου δικαιοι παρα τω θεω αλλ οι ποιηται του νομου δικαιωθησονται

For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law will be justified.

14 οταν γαρ εθνη τα μη νομον εχοντα φυσει τα του νομου ποιη ουτοι νομον μη εχοντεσ εαυτοισ εισιν νομοσ

For when the non-Jews who do not have the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are a law to themselves,

15 οιτινεσ ενδεικνυνται το εργον του νομου γραπτον εν ταισ καρδιαισ αυτων συμμαρτυρουσησ αυτων τησ συνειδησεωσ και μεταξυ αλληλων των λογισμων κατηγορουντων η και απολογουμενων

since they show the work of the law written on their hearts, their conscience bearing witness, and their thoughts either accusing or defending them,

16 εν ημερα οτε κρινει ο θεοσ τα κρυπτα των ανθρωπων κατα το ευαγγελιον μου δια ιησου χριστου

in the day when God will judge the secrets of people, according to my Good News, by Christ Jesus.

17 ιδε συ ιουδαιοσ επονομαζη και επαναπαυη τω νομω και καυχασαι εν θεω

But if you call yourself a Jew, and rely on the law, and boast in God,

18 και γινωσκεισ το θελημα και δοκιμαζεισ τα διαφεροντα κατηχουμενοσ εκ του νομου

and know his will, and approve the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law,

19 πεποιθασ τε σεαυτον οδηγον ειναι τυφλων φωσ των εν σκοτει

and are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,

20 παιδευτην αφρονων διδασκαλον νηπιων εχοντα την μορφωσιν τησ γνωσεωσ και τησ αληθειασ εν τω νομω

a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of children, having in the law the embodiment of knowledge and truth.

21 ο ουν διδασκων ετερον σεαυτον ου διδασκεισ ο κηρυσσων μη κλεπτειν κλεπτεισ

You therefore who teach another, do you not teach yourself? You who preach against stealing, do you steal?

22 ο λεγων μη μοιχευειν μοιχευεισ ο βδελυσσομενοσ τα ειδωλα ιεροσυλεισ

You who say that one should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who detest idols, do you rob temples?

23 οσ εν νομω καυχασαι δια τησ παραβασεωσ του νομου τον θεον ατιμαζεισ

You who boast in the law, do you, by disobeying the law, dishonor God?

24 το γαρ ονομα του θεου δι υμασ βλασφημειται εν τοισ εθνεσιν καθωσ γεγραπται

For because of you the name of God is blasphemed among the nations, just as it is written.

25 περιτομη μεν γαρ ωφελει εαν νομον πρασσησ εαν δε παραβατησ νομου ησ η περιτομη σου ακροβυστια γεγονεν

For circumcision indeed profits, if you are a doer of the law, but if you are a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.

26 εαν ουν η ακροβυστια τα δικαιωματα του νομου φυλασση ουχι η ακροβυστια αυτου εισ περιτομην λογισθησεται

If therefore the uncircumcised keep the requirements of the law, won't his uncircumcision be counted as circumcision?

27 και κρινει η εκ φυσεωσ ακροβυστια τον νομον τελουσα σε τον δια γραμματοσ και περιτομησ παραβατην νομου

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?

28 ου γαρ ο εν τω φανερω ιουδαιοσ εστιν ουδε η εν τω φανερω εν σαρκι περιτομη

For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh;

29 αλλ ο εν τω κρυπτω ιουδαιοσ και περιτομη καρδιασ εν πνευματι ου γραμματι ου ο επαινοσ ουκ εξ ανθρωπων αλλ εκ του θεου

but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, by the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from people, but from God.
