Romans 2:3

Read in context

Romans 2:1–5 · Berean Standard Bible

1 You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on another. For on whatever grounds you judge the other, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things.

2 And we know that God’s judgment against those who do such things is based on truth.

3 So when you, O man, pass judgment on others, yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God’s judgment?

4 Or do you disregard the riches of His kindness, tolerance, and patience, not realizing that God’s kindness leads you to repentance?

5 But because of your hard and unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath against yourself for the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed.
