For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God’s sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous.
14 When Gentiles, who do not possess the law, do instinctively what the law requires, these, though not having the law, are a law to themselves.
14
(Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law.
15 They show that what the law requires is written on their hearts, to which their own conscience also bears witness; and their conflicting thoughts will accuse or perhaps excuse them
15
They show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts sometimes accusing them and at other times even defending them.)
16 on the day when, according to my gospel, God, through Jesus Christ, will judge the secret thoughts of all.
16
This will take place on the day when God judges people’s secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares.
