Romans 2:6

2:6 He ¹  will reward ²  each one according to his works: ³ 

Romans 9:12

9:12 ⁴  it was said to her, “The older will serve the younger,” ⁵ 

[2:6]  ¹ tn Grk “who.” The relative pronoun was converted to a personal pronoun and, because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[2:6]  ² tn Or “will render,” “will recompense.” In this context Paul is setting up a hypothetical situation, not stating that salvation is by works.

[2:6]  ³ sn A quotation from Ps 62:12; Prov 24:12; a close approximation to Matt 16:27.

[9:12]  ⁴ sn Many translations place this verse division before the phrase “not by works but by his calling” (NA²⁷/UBS⁴, NIV, NRSV, NLT, NAB). Other translations place this verse division in the same place that the translation above does (NASB, KJV, NKJV, ASV, RSV). The translation has followed the latter to avoid breaking the parenthetical statement.

[9:12]  ⁵ sn A quotation from Gen 25:23.
