Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, every one who judgest, for in that in which thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.

for what does the scripture say? And Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness.

but to him who does not work, but believes on him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is reckoned as righteousness.

Does this blessedness then rest on the circumcision, or also on the uncircumcision? For we say that faith has been reckoned to Abraham as righteousness.

and hope does not make ashamed, because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit which has been given to us:

For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, good does not dwell: for to will is there with me, but to do right I find not.

For we have been saved in hope; but hope seen is not hope; for what any one sees, why does he also hope?

Thou wilt say to me then, Why does he yet find fault? for who resists his purpose?

for it is God's minister to thee for good. But if thou practisest evil, fear; for it bears not the sword in vain; for it is God's minister, an avenger for wrath to him that does evil.

He that regards the day, regards it to the Lord. And he that eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he that does not eat, it is to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks.

Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Blessed is he who does not judge himself in what he allows.
