¹　神照各人所作的报应各人

¹Therefore you are without excuse, O man, whoever you are who judge. For in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself. For you who judge practice the same things.

²我们知道，　神必照着真理审判行这些事的人。

²We know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things.

³你这个人，你判断行这些事的人，自己所行的却是一样，你以为能逃脱　神的审判吗？

³Do you think this, O man who judges those who practice such things, and do the same, that you will escape the judgment of God?

⁴还是你藐视　神丰富的恩慈、宽容和忍耐，不晓得他的恩慈是要领你悔改的吗？

⁴Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?

⁵可是你一直硬着心肠，不肯悔改，为自己积蓄　神的忿怒，就是他彰显公义审判的那天所要发的忿怒。

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

⁶　神必照各人所作的报应各人：

⁶who “will pay back to everyone according to their works:” Psalm 62:12; Proverbs 24:12

⁷以永生报答那些耐心行善、寻求荣耀尊贵和不朽的人，

⁷to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory, honor, and incorruptibility, eternal life;

⁸却以震怒和愤恨报应那些自私自利、不顺从真理而顺从不义的人；

⁸but to those who are self-seeking, and don’t obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, will be wrath and indignation,

⁹把患难和愁苦加给所有作恶的人，先是犹太人，后是希腊人，

⁹oppression and anguish, on every soul of man who works evil, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

¹⁰却把荣耀、尊贵与平安赐给所有行善的人，先是犹太人，后是希腊人。

¹⁰But glory, honor, and peace go to every man who works good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

¹¹因为　神并不偏待人。

¹¹For there is no partiality with God.

¹²律法的作用刻在人心凡不在律法之下犯了罪的，将不按律法而灭亡；凡在律法之下犯了罪的，将按律法受审判。

¹²For 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.

¹³因为在　神面前，不是听律法的为义，而是行律法的得称为义。

¹³For it isn’t the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law will be justified

¹⁴没有律法的外族人，如果按本性行律法上的事，他们虽然没有律法，自己就是自己的律法；

¹⁴(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,

¹⁵这就表明律法的作用是刻在他们的心里，有他们的良心一同作证，他们的思想互相较量，或作控告、或作辩护。

¹⁵in 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)

¹⁶这也要照着我所传的福音，在　神借着耶稣基督审判各人隐情的那一天，彰显出来。

¹⁶in the day when God will judge the secrets of men, according to my Good News, by Jesus Christ.

¹⁷内心作犹太人的才是犹太人你身为犹太人，倚靠律法，仗着　神夸口，

¹⁷Indeed you bear the name of a Jew, and rest on the law, and glory in God,

¹⁸而且明白他的旨意，又从律法得了教导，能够辨别什么是好的，

¹⁸and know his will, and approve the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law,

¹⁹自信是瞎子的向导，在黑暗中的人的光，

¹⁹and are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,

²⁰愚昧人的导师，小孩子的教师，在律法上得了整套的知识和真理；

²⁰a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of babies, having in the law the form of knowledge and of the truth.

²¹你既然教导别人，难道不教导自己吗？你传讲不可偷窃，自己却偷窃吗？

²¹You therefore who teach another, don’t you teach yourself? You who preach that a man shouldn’t steal, do you steal?

²²你说不可奸淫，自己却奸淫吗？你憎恶偶像，自己却劫掠庙宇吗？

²²You who say a man shouldn’t commit adultery. Do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?

²³你既然以律法夸口，自己却因犯律法而羞辱　神吗？

²³You who glory in the law, through your disobedience of the law do you dishonor God?

²⁴正如经上所说的：“　神的名，因你们的缘故在列邦中被亵渎。”

²⁴For “the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you,” Isaiah 52:5; Ezekiel 36:22 just as it is written.

²⁵你若遵行律法，割礼固然有益处；但你若是犯律法的，你的割礼就不是割礼了。

²⁵For 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这样，没有受割礼的人，如果遵守律法所规定的，他虽然没有受过割礼，不也算是受过割礼的吗？

²⁶If therefore the uncircumcised keep the ordinances of the law, won’t his uncircumcision be accounted as circumcision?

²⁷那本来没有受割礼却遵守律法的人，就要审判你这有仪文和割礼而犯律法的人。

²⁷Won’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因为表面上作犹太人的并不是犹太人，在肉身上表面的割礼也不是割礼。

²⁸For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh;

²⁹唯有在内心作犹太人的才是犹太人；割礼也是心里的，是靠着圣灵而不是靠着仪文。这样的人所受的称赞，不是从人来的，而是从　神来的。

²⁹but 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.
