PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Por eso no tienes excusa alguna cuando juzgas a otros, pues cuando lo haces, te condenas a ti mismo, ya que cometes los mismos actos que ellos.
1 Therefore you are without excuse, O man, whoever you are who judge. For in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself. For you who judge practice the same things.
1 Διὸ ἀναπολόγητος εἶ, ὦ ἄνθρωπε πᾶς ὁ κρίνων· ἐν ᾧ γὰρ κρίνεις τὸν ἕτερον, σεαυτὸν κατακρίνεις· τὰ γὰρ αὐτὰ πράσσεις ὁ κρίνων.
2 Y sabemos que Dios, en su verdad, castigará a cualquiera que actúe de esa forma.
2 We know that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who practice such things.
2 οἴδαμεν δὲ ὅτι τὸ κρῖμα τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐστι κατὰ ἀλήθειαν ἐπὶ τοὺς τὰ τοιαῦτα πράσσοντας.
3 ¿Acaso crees que Dios juzgará y condenará a los demás y te perdonará a ti que haces las mismas cosas?
3 Do you think this, O man who judges those who practice such things, and do the same, that you will escape the judgment of God?
3 λογίζῃ δὲ τοῦτο, ὦ ἄνθρωπε ὁ κρίνων τοὺς τὰ τοιαῦτα πράσσοντας καὶ ποιῶν αὐτά, ὅτι σὺ ἐκφεύξῃ τὸ κρῖμα τοῦ Θεοῦ;
4 ¿No te das cuenta de que por las riquezas de su generosidad, bondad y paciencia ha estado aguardando sin castigarte para darte tiempo a que te apartes de tus pecados?
4 Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?
4 ἢ τοῦ πλούτου τῆς χρηστότητος αὐτοῦ καὶ τῆς ἀνοχῆς καὶ τῆς μακροθυμίας καταφρονεῖς, ἀγνοῶν ὅτι τὸ χρηστὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ εἰς μετάνοιάν σε ἄγει;
5 Pero no le haces caso y, en consecuencia, estás almacenando contra ti mismo ira, por la terca dureza de tu corazón no arrepentido. Esa ira se manifestará el día en que Dios
5 But according to your hardness and unrepentant heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath, revelation, and of the righteous judgment of God,
5 κατὰ δὲ τὴν σκληρότητά σου καὶ ἀμετανόητον καρδίαν θησαυρίζεις σεαυτῷ ὀργὴν ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ὀργῆς καὶ ἀποκαλύψεως [καὶ] δικαιοκρισίας τοῦ Θεοῦ,
6 le dará a cada uno el pago que se merece.
6 who “will pay back to everyone according to their works:”
6 ὃς ἀποδώσει ἑκάστῳ κατὰ τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ,
7 Dará la vida eterna a quienes con paciencia hacen el bien y buscan gloria, honra y vida eterna;
7 to those who by perseverance in well-doing seek for glory, honor, and incorruptibility, eternal life;
7 τοῖς μὲν καθ᾽ ὑπομονὴν ἔργου ἀγαθοῦ δόξαν καὶ τιμὴν καὶ ἀφθαρσίαν ζητοῦσι ζωὴν αἰώνιον,
8 pero castigará con su ira a quienes luchan contra la verdad y cometen injusticias.
8 but to those who are self-seeking and don’t obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, will be wrath, indignation,
8 τοῖς δὲ ἐξ ἐριθείας, καὶ ἀπειθοῦσι μὲν τῇ ἀληθείᾳ, πειθομένοις δὲ τῇ ἀδικίᾳ, θυμὸς καὶ ὀργή·
9 Habrá sufrimiento y angustia para toda persona que haga lo malo, tanto para los judíos como para los gentiles.
9 oppression, and anguish on every soul of man who does evil, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
9 θλῖψις καὶ στενοχωρία ἐπὶ πᾶσαν ψυχὴν ἀνθρώπου τοῦ κατεργαζομένου τὸ κακόν, Ἰουδαίου τε πρῶτον καὶ Ἕλληνος·
10 Mas habrá gloria, honra y paz para los que hacen lo bueno, lo mismo para los judíos que para los gentiles,
10 But glory, honor, and peace go to every man who does good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
10 δόξα δὲ καὶ τιμὴ καὶ εἰρήνη παντὶ τῷ ἐργαζομένῳ τὸ ἀγαθόν, Ἰουδαίῳ τε πρῶτον καὶ Ἕλληνι·
11 pues para Dios no hay favoritismos.
11 For there is no partiality with God.
11 οὐ γὰρ ἔστι προσωποληψία παρὰ τῷ Θεῷ.
12 Todos los que han pecado sin tener la ley serán juzgados sin la ley; pero los que pecaron bajo la ley, por la ley serán juzgados,
12 For as many as have sinned without the law will also perish without the law. As many as have sinned under the law will be judged by the law.
12 ὅσοι γὰρ ἀνόμως ἥμαρτον, ἀνόμως καὶ ἀπολοῦνται· καὶ ὅσοι ἐν νόμῳ ἥμαρτον, διὰ νόμου κριθήσονται.
13 ya que no son los que oyen la ley los que son justificados, sino quienes la obedecen.
13 For it isn’t the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law will be justified
13 οὐ γὰρ οἱ ἀκροαταὶ τοῦ νόμου δίκαιοι παρὰ τῷ Θεῷ, ἀλλ᾽ οἱ ποιηταὶ τοῦ νόμου δικαιωθήσονται.
14 Cuando los paganos que no conocen la ley actúan conforme a la ley, aunque nunca hayan tenido escrita la ley de Dios, son la ley para sí mismos.
14 (for when Gentiles who don’t have the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are a law to themselves,
14 ὅταν γὰρ ἔθνη τὰ μὴ νόμον ἔχοντα φύσει τὰ τοῦ νόμου ποιῇ, οὗτοι νόμον μὴ ἔχοντες ἑαυτοῖς εἰσι νόμος,
15 Ellos muestran que la ley de Dios está escrita dentro de ellos mismos; su conciencia los acusa a veces, y a veces los excusa.
15 in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience testifying with them, and their thoughts among themselves accusing or else excusing them)
15 οἵτινες ἐνδείκνυνται τὸ ἔργον τοῦ νόμου γραπτὸν ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις αὐτῶν, συμμαρτυρούσης αὐτῶν τῆς συνειδήσεως καὶ μεταξὺ ἀλλήλων τῶν λογισμῶν κατηγορούντων ἢ καὶ ἀπολογουμένων —
16 Y así, Dios juzgará en aquel día, por medio de Jesucristo, hasta los secretos de todas las personas.
16 in the day when God will judge the secrets of men, according to my Good News, by Jesus Christ.
16 ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ὅτε κρινεῖ ὁ Θεὸς τὰ κρυπτὰ τῶν ἀνθρώπων κατὰ τὸ εὐαγγέλιόν μου διὰ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ.
17 Tú, como judío, te apoyas en la ley y te sientes orgulloso de tu relación con Dios.
17 Indeed you bear the name of a Jew, rest on the law, glory in God,
17 Ἴδε σὺ Ἰουδαῖος ἐπονομάζῃ, καὶ ἐπαναπαύῃ τῷ νόμῳ, καὶ καυχᾶσαι ἐν Θεῷ,
18 Dices que conoces la voluntad de Dios y que sabes discernir lo que es mejor, porque te lo ha enseñado la ley.
18 know his will, and approve the things that are excellent, being instructed out of the law,
18 καὶ γινώσκεις τὸ θέλημα, καὶ δοκιμάζεις τὰ διαφέροντα, κατηχούμενος ἐκ τοῦ νόμου,
19 Estás seguro de que puedes guiar a los ciegos y de que eres luz para los que viven en tinieblas.
19 and are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,
19 πέποιθάς τε σεαυτὸν ὁδηγὸν εἶναι τυφλῶν, φῶς τῶν ἐν σκότει,
20 Te consideras maestro de los ignorantes y guía de los niños, porque tienes en la ley la fuente del conocimiento y la verdad.
20 a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of babies, having in the law the form of knowledge and of the truth.
20 παιδευτὴν ἀφρόνων, διδάσκαλον νηπίων, ἔχοντα τὴν μόρφωσιν τῆς γνώσεως καὶ τῆς ἀληθείας ἐν τῷ νόμῳ.
21 Tú, pues, que instruyes a otros, ¿por qué no te instruyes a ti mismo? Dices que no se ha de robar, pero ¿no robas tú?
21 You therefore who teach another, don’t you teach yourself? You who preach that a man shouldn’t steal, do you steal?
21 ὁ οὖν διδάσκων ἕτερον σεαυτὸν οὐ διδάσκεις; ὁ κηρύσσων μὴ κλέπτειν κλέπτεις;
22 Dices que es malo cometer adulterio, pero ¿no lo cometes tú? Odias a los ídolos, pero saqueas sus templos.
22 You who say a man shouldn’t commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?
22 ὁ λέγων μὴ μοιχεύειν μοιχεύεις; ὁ βδελυσσόμενος τὰ εἴδωλα ἱεροσυλεῖς;
23 Te sientes orgulloso de la ley de Dios, pero lo deshonras al violarla.
23 You who glory in the law, do you dishonor God by disobeying the law?
23 ὃς ἐν νόμῳ καυχᾶσαι, διὰ τῆς παραβάσεως τοῦ νόμου τὸν Θεὸν ἀτιμάζεις;
24 No en vano está escrito: «El mundo ofende a Dios por culpa de ustedes».
24 For “the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you,” just as it is written.
24 τὸ γὰρ ὄνομα τοῦ Θεοῦ δι᾽ ὑμᾶς βλασφημεῖται ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσι, καθὼς γέγραπται.
25 El haber sido circuncidado tiene valor cuando se obedece la ley de Dios; pero si no la obedeces no estás en mejor posición que los paganos.
25 For circumcision indeed profits, if you are a doer of the law, but if you are a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.
25 περιτομὴ μὲν γὰρ ὠφελεῖ, ἐὰν νόμον πράσσῃς· ἐὰν δὲ παραβάτης νόμου ᾖς, ἡ περιτομή σου ἀκροβυστία γέγονεν.
26 Y si los paganos obedecen la ley de Dios, ¿no es justo que Dios los considere como si se hubieran circuncidado?
26 If therefore the uncircumcised keep the ordinances of the law, won’t his uncircumcision be accounted as circumcision?
26 ἐὰν οὖν ἡ ἀκροβυστία τὰ δικαιώματα τοῦ νόμου φυλάσσῃ, οὐχὶ ἡ ἀκροβυστία αὐτοῦ εἰς περιτομὴν λογισθήσεται;
27 El que no se ha circuncidado pero obedece la ley te condenará a ti, que estás circuncidado y tienes la ley, pero no la obedeces.
27 Won’t those who are physically uncircumcised, but fulfill the law, judge you, who with the letter and circumcision are a transgressor of the law?
27 καὶ κρινεῖ ἡ ἐκ φύσεως ἀκροβυστία, τὸν νόμον τελοῦσα, σὲ τὸν διὰ γράμματος καὶ περιτομῆς παραβάτην νόμου.
28 Nadie es judío por serlo externamente y estar circuncidado.
28 For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh;
28 οὐ γὰρ ὁ ἐν τῷ φανερῷ Ἰουδαῖός ἐστιν, οὐδὲ ἡ ἐν τῷ φανερῷ ἐν σαρκὶ περιτομή,
29 No, judío es aquel que lo es en su interior y, en su interior ha sido circuncidado de acuerdo con el Espíritu y no con un mandamiento escrito. Quien así lo ha experimentado recibe la alabanza de Dios, no de la gente.
29 but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.
29 ἀλλ᾽ ὁ ἐν τῷ κρυπτῷ Ἰουδαῖος, καὶ περιτομὴ καρδίας ἐν πνεύματι, οὐ γράμματι, οὗ ὁ ἔπαινος οὐκ ἐξ ἀνθρώπων, ἀλλ᾽ ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
After saying that the Gentile wanteth nothing appertaining to salvation if he be a doer of the Law, and after making that wonderful comparison, he goes on to set down the glories of the Jews, owing to which they thought scorn of the Gentiles: and first the very name itself, which was of great majesty, as the name Christian is …

Those, on the other hand, who depart from Him, and despise His precepts, and by their deeds bring dishonour on Him who made them, and by their opinions blaspheme Him who nourishes them, heap up against themselves most righteous judgment. He therefore (i.e., the spiritual man) sifts and tries them all, but he himself is tried by no man: he …
And who is this but Thee, our God, the sweetness and well-spring of righteousness, who renderest "to every man according to his deeds," and despisest not "a broken and a contrite heart!"

For as teaching without doing condemns the teacher (for "thou which teachest another," it is said, "teachest thou not thyself"?) so doing but not guiding others, lessens our reward.

For Jesus the King when about to become our Physician, girded Himself with the linen of humanity, and healed that which was sick. The perfect Teacher of babes became a babe among babes, that He might give wisdom to the foolish.
