⁵ But because of your stubborn and unrepentant heart you are reserving wrath for yourself on the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed. ⁶ For he will repay everyone according to what that person has done: ⁷ eternal life to those who strive for glory, honor, and immortality by patiently doing good; ⁸ but wrath and fury for those who in their selfish pride refuse to believe the truth and practice wickedness instead. ⁹ There will be suffering and anguish for every human being who practices doing evil, for Jews first and for Greeks as well. ¹⁰ But there will be glory, honor, and peace for everyone who practices doing good, initially for Jews but also for Greeks as well, ¹¹ because God does not show partiality.

(This is the second death—the lake of fire.) ¹⁵ Anyone whose name was not found written in the Book of Life was thrown into the lake of fire.

⁹ “There isn’t a person among you who would give his son a stone if he asked for bread, is there? ¹⁰ Or if he asks for a fish, he wouldn’t give him a snake, would he? ¹¹ So if you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who keep on asking him! ¹² Therefore, whatever you want people to do for you, do the same for them, because this summarizes the Law and the Prophets.”

Get away from me, you who practice evil!’”
