14 For when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that the work of the law is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness, and their conflicting thoughts accuse ^vor even excuse them 16 on that ^wday when, according to my gospel, ^xGod judges the secrets of men ^yby Christ Jesus.
