- 2:1 Therefore you are without excuse, O every man who judges, for in what you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things.
人哪，每一个审判人的！你是无法推诿的，你在什么事上审判人，就在什么事上定自己的罪；因你这审判人的，也行同样的事。
- 2:2 But we know that the judgment of God is according to truth upon those who practice such things.
我们知道行这样事的人，神必按真理审判他。
- 2:3 And do you consider this, O man, who judge those who practice such things and do the same yourself, that you will escape the judgment of God?
人哪，你审判行这样事的人，自己却照样行，你以为能逃脱神的审判么？
- 2:4 Or do you despise the riches of His kindness and forbearance and long-suffering, not knowing that God's kindness is leading you to repentance?
还是你藐视祂丰富的恩慈、宽容与恒忍，不晓得神的恩慈是领你悔改？
- 2:5 But, according to your hardness and your unrepentant heart, you are storing up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God,
你竟任着你刚硬不悔改的心，为自己在神动怒并显示祂公义审判的日子，积蓄忿怒。
- 2:6 Who will render to each according to his works:
祂必照各人的行为报应各人：
- 2:7 To those who by endurance in good work seek glory and honor and incorruptibility, life eternal;
凡恒心行善，寻求荣耀、尊贵和不朽坏的，就以永远的生命报应他们；
- 2:8 But to those who are selfishly contentious and disobedient to the truth and obey unrighteousness, wrath and fury.
惟有私图好争，不信从真理，反信从不义的，就以忿怒、恼恨报应他们；
- 2:9 Tribulation and anguish upon every soul of man who commits evil, both of Jew first and of Greek;
将患难、困苦加给一切作恶的人，先是犹太人，后是希利尼人；
- 2:10 But glory and honor and peace to everyone who works good, both to Jew first and to Greek.
却将荣耀、尊贵与平安加给一切行善的人，先是犹太人，后是希利尼人。
- 2:11 For there is no respect of persons with God.
因为神并不偏待人。
- 2:12 For as many as have sinned without the law shall also perish without the law; and as many as have sinned under the law shall be judged by the law
凡在律法以外犯了罪的，也必在律法以外灭亡；凡在律法以下犯了罪的，必按律法受审判，
- 2:13 (For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
（原来在神面前，不是听律法的为义，乃是行律法的称义。
- 2:14 For when Gentiles, who have no law, do by nature the things of the law, these, though they have no law, are a law to themselves,
没有律法的外邦人，若顺着本性行律法上的事，他们虽然没有律法，自己就是自己的律法：
- 2:15 Who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness with it and their reasonings, one with the other, accusing or even excusing them.)
他们显出那写在他们心里律法的功用，他们的良心同作见证，并且他们的思想互相控告或者也辩护。）
- 2:16 In the day when God judges the secrets of men according to my gospel through Jesus Christ.
就是在神藉耶稣基督，照着我的福音，审判人隐秘事的日子。
- 2:17 But if you bear the name of Jew, and rest upon the law, and boast in God,
你名为犹太人，又倚靠律法，且指着神夸口，
- 2:18 And know the will, and approve the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law,
既从律法受了教导，就认识神的旨意，也能鉴赏那更美的事，
- 2:19 And have confidence that you yourself are a guide to the blind, a light to those in darkness,
又深信自己是给瞎子领路的，是黑暗中之人的光，
- 2:20 One who disciplines the foolish, a teacher of babes, having the proper form of the knowledge and truth in the law;
是愚昧人的管教者，是幼稚人的教师，在律法上有知识和真理的规模；
- 2:21 You therefore who teach another, do you not teach yourself? You who preach not to steal, do you steal?
这样，你这教导别人的，不教导自己么？你这传讲不可偷窃的，自己偷窃么？
- 2:22 You who say not to commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob their temples?
你这说不可奸淫的，自己奸淫么？你这憎恶偶像的，自己抢劫庙宇么？
- 2:23 You who boast in the law, do you by transgression of the law dishonor God?
你指着律法夸口，自己却犯律法玷辱神么？
- 2:24 For "the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you,'' even as it is written.
如经上所记：“神的名在外邦人中，因你们受了亵渎。”
- 2:25 For circumcision profits if you practice the law; but if you are a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.
你若行律法，割礼固然于你有益；但你若是犯律法的，你的割礼就不算割礼。
- 2:26 If therefore the uncircumcision keeps the ordinances of the law, will not his uncircumcision be accounted as circumcision?
所以那未受割礼的，若遵守律法的典章，他虽然未受割礼，岂不算是受割礼的么？
- 2:27 And the uncircumcision by nature, if he fulfills the law, will judge you who through the letter and circumcision are a transgressor of the law.
而且那本来未受割礼的，若全守律法，就要审判你这有字句和割礼却犯律法的人。
- 2:28 For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly; neither is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh.
因为外表上作犹太人的，并不是犹太人；外表上肉体的割礼，也不是割礼。
- 2:29 But he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is of the heart, in spirit, not in letter, whose praise is not from men, but from God.
惟有在内里作的，才是犹太人；割礼也是心里的，在于灵，不在于字句。这人的称赞，不是从人来的，乃是从神来的。
