Romans 2:12-16

God’s Judgment and the Law

12 For all who have sinned ^gwithout the law will also perish without the law, and all who have sinned under the law will be judged by the law. 13 For ^hit is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law who will be justified. 14 For when Gentiles, who do not have the law, ⁱby nature do what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that the work of the law is ^jwritten on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness, and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even excuse them 16 ^kon that day when, ^laccording to my gospel, God judges ^mthe secrets of men ⁿby Christ Jesus.
