¹² So every one of us will have to give an account of himself to God.

⁶ Who will give to every man his right reward:

⁷ To those who go on with good works in the hope of glory and honour and salvation from death, he will give eternal life:

⁸ But to those who, from a love of competition, are not guided by what is true, will come the heat of his wrath,

⁹ Trouble and sorrow on all whose works are evil, to the Jew first and then to the Greek;

¹⁰ But glory and honour and peace to all whose works are good, to the Jew first and then to the Greek:

¹¹ For one man is not different from another before God.

¹² All those who have done wrong without the law will get destruction without the law: and those who have done wrong under the law will have their punishment by the law;

¹⁶ And the free giving has not the same effect as the sin of one: for the effect of one man's sin was punishment by the decision of God, but the free giving had power to give righteousness to wrongdoers in great number.

¹⁷ For, if by the wrongdoing of one, death was ruling through the one, much more will those to whom has come the wealth of grace and the giving of righteousness, be ruling in life through the one, even Jesus Christ.

¹⁸ So then, as the effect of one act of wrongdoing was that punishment came on all men, even so the effect of one act of righteousness was righteousness of life for all men.

¹ Be not judges of others, and you will not be judged.

² For as you have been judging, so you will be judged, and with your measure will it be measured to you.

³ And why do you take note of the grain of dust in your brother's eye, but take no note of the bit of wood which is in your eye?

²⁵ It is a danger to a man to say without thought, It is holy, and, after taking his oaths, to be questioning if it is necessary to keep them.

¹³ But the land will become a waste because of its people, as the fruit of their works.

³⁶ And I say to you that in the day when they are judged, men will have to give an account of every foolish word they have said.

¹² If you are wise, you are wise for yourself; if your heart is full of pride, you only will have the pain of it.

¹³ Why has the evil-doer a low opinion of God, saying in his heart, You will not make search for it?

¹⁴ You have seen it; for your eyes are on sorrow and grief, to take it into your hand: the poor man puts his faith in you; you have been the helper of the child who has no father.

¹⁵ Let the arm of the sinner and the evil-doer be broken; go on searching for his sin till there is no more.

⁴⁹ And I will send on you the punishment of your evil ways, and you will be rewarded for your sins with your images: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.

³ The sharp man sees the evil and takes cover: the simple go straight on and get into trouble.

¹² For the word of God is living and full of power, and is sharper than any two-edged sword, cutting through and making a division even of the soul and the spirit, the bones and the muscles, and quick to see the thoughts and purposes of the heart.

¹³ And there is nothing made which is not completely clear to him; there is nothing covered, but all things are open to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

¹⁴ Having then a great high priest, who has made his way through the heavens, even Jesus the Son of God, let us be strong in our faith.
