Romans 2:3-5
New English Translation
3 And do you think,[a] whoever you are, when you judge[b] those who practice such things and yet do them yourself,[c] that you will escape God’s judgment? 4 Or do you have contempt for the wealth of his kindness, forbearance, and patience, and yet do not know[d] that God’s kindness leads you to repentance? 5 But because of your stubbornness[e] and your unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath for yourselves in the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment is revealed![f]
