So suppose someone knows the good deeds they should do. But suppose they don’t do them. By not doing these good deeds, they sin.

If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them.

So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.

Remember, it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it.

So it is sin to know the good and yet not do it.

So for one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, for him it is sin.

Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.

To him therefore that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.

So it is a sin for the person who knows to do what is good and doesn’t do it.

Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth[ it] not, to him it is sin.

So whoever knows what is good to do and does not do it is guilty of sin.

Jesus said,“ If you were blind, you would not be guilty of sin. But since you claim you can see, you remain guilty.

Now you know these things. So you will be blessed if you do them.

Suppose they had not known the way of godliness. This would have been better than to know godliness and then turn away from it. The way of godliness is the sacred command passed on to them.

If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. But now they have no excuse for their sin.

They know that God’s commands are right. They know that those who do evil things should die. But they continue to do those very things. They also approve of others who do them.

“ Suppose a servant knows the master’s wishes. But the servant doesn’t get ready and doesn’t do what the master wants. Then that servant will receive a heavy beating.But suppose the servant does not know his master’s wishes. And suppose the servant does things for which he should be punished. He will receive a lighter beating. Much will be required of everyone who has been given much. Even more will be asked of the person who is supposed to take care of much.

Suppose you call yourself a Jew. You trust in the law. You brag that you know God.You know what God wants. You agree with what is best because the law teaches you.You think you know so much more than the people you teach. You think you’re helping blind people. You think you are a light for those in the dark.You think you can make foolish people wise. You act like you’re teaching little children. You think that the law gives you all knowledge and truth.You claim to teach others, but you don’t even teach yourself! You preach against stealing. But you steal!You say that people should not commit adultery. But you commit adultery! You hate statues of gods. But you rob temples!You brag about the law. But when you break it, you rob God of his honor!

Ever since the world was created it has been possible to see the qualities of God that are not seen. I’m talking about his eternal power and about the fact that he is God. Those things can be seen in what he has made. So people have no excuse for what they do.They knew God. But they didn’t honor him as God. They didn’t thank him. Their thinking became worthless. Their foolish hearts became dark.

Did what is good cause me to die? Not at all! Sin had to be recognized for what it really is. So it used what is good to bring about my death. Because of the commandment, sin became totally sinful.
