2:1	For this reason, O man, each one of you who judges is inexcusable. For by that which you judge another, you condemn yourself. For you do the same things that you judge.
2:2	For we know that the judgment of God is in accord with truth against those who do such things.
2:3	But, O man, when you judge those who do such things as you yourself also do, do you think that you will escape the judgment of God?
2:4	Or do you despise the riches of his goodness and patience and forbearance? Do you not know that the kindness of God is calling you to repentance?
2:5	But in accord with your hard and impenitent heart, you store up wrath for yourself, unto the day of wrath and of revelation by the just judgment of God.
2:6	For he will render to each one according to his works:
2:7	To those who, in accord with patient good works, seek glory and honor and incorruption, certainly, he will render eternal life.
2:8	But to those who are contentious and who do not acquiesce to the truth, but instead trust in iniquity, he will render wrath and indignation.
2:9	Tribulation and anguish are upon every soul of man that works evil: the Jew first, and also the Greek.
2:10	But glory and honor and peace are for all who do what is good: the Jew first, and also the Greek.
2:11	For there is no favoritism with God.
