Romans 2:13 in Context — Romans 2

11 Car devant Dieu il n’y a point d’acception de personnes.

12 Tous ceux qui ont péché sans la loi périront aussi sans la loi, et tous ceux qui ont péché avec la loi seront jugés par la loi.

13 Ce ne sont pas, en effet, ceux qui écoutent la loi qui sont justes devant Dieu, mais ce sont ceux qui la mettent en pratique qui seront justifiés.

14 Quand les païens, qui n’ont point la loi, font naturellement ce que prescrit la loi, ils sont, eux qui n’ont point la loi, une loi pour eux-mêmes;

15 ils montrent que l’œuvre de la loi est écrite dans leurs cœurs, leur conscience en rendant témoignage, et leurs pensées s’accusant ou se défendant tour à tour.
