Romans 2:14 in Context — Romans 2

12 Pois todos os que sem Lei pecaram, sem Lei também perecerão; e todos os que pecaram sob a Lei, pela Lei serão julgados;

13 porque não são os que ouvem a Lei que são justos diante de Deus, mas sim, os que praticam a Lei que serão justificados.

14 Pois quando os gentios, que não têm a Lei, praticam naturalmente as coisas que são da Lei, estes, ainda que não tenham a Lei, são lei para si mesmos.

15 Eles mostram a obra da Lei escrita em seus corações, dando-lhes testemunho juntamente a sua consciência, e os pensamentos, ora acusando-os, ora defendendo-os.

16 Isso acontecerá no dia em que Deus julgará os segredos dos seres humanos por meio de Jesus Cristo, conforme o meu Evangelho.
