4 You don't think much of God's wonderful goodness or of his patience and willingness to put up with you. Don't you know that the reason God is good to you is because he wants you to turn to him?
5 But you are stubborn and refuse to turn to God. So you are making things even worse for yourselves on that day when he will show how angry he is and will judge the world with fairness.
6 God will reward each of us for what we have done.
7 He will give eternal life to everyone who has patiently done what is good in the hope of receiving glory, honour, and life that lasts for ever.
8 But he will show how angry and furious he can be with every selfish person who rejects the truth and wants to do evil.
9 All who are wicked will be punished with trouble and suffering. It doesn't matter if they are Jews or Gentiles.
10 But all who do right will be rewarded with glory, honour, and peace, whether they are Jews or Gentiles.
