Romans 2 — Context

2

And we know that the judgment of God rightly falls upon those who practice such things.

3

But do you suppose this, O man, when you pass judgment on those who practice such things and do the same yourself, that you will escape the judgment of God?

4

Or do you think lightly of the riches of His kindness and tolerance and patience, not knowing that the kindness of God leads you to repentance?

5

But because of your stubbornness and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God,

6

who WILL RENDER TO EACH PERSON ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS:

7

to those who by perseverance in doing good seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life;

8

but to those who are selfishly ambitious and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, wrath and indignation.
