Romans 2 Tree
of Life Version (TLV)
God’s Judgment on Unrighteousness
2 Therefore you are without excuse, O man—every one of you who is judging. For
by whatever you judge another, you condemn yourself. For
you who judge practice the same things. a]”>[a] 2 We know that God’s judgment on those who practice such things is based on truth. 3 But you, O man—judging those practicing such things yet doing the same—do you suppose that you will escape the judgment of God? 4 Or do you belittle the riches of His kindness and tolerance and patience—not realizing that God’s kindness leads you to repentance?
5 But by your hard and unrepentant heart, you
are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment is revealed. b]”>[b] 6 He will pay back each person according to his deeds. c]”>[c] 7 To those who by perseverance in doing good are seeking glory, honor, and
immortality—eternal life. 8 But to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness—wrath and fury. 9 There will be trouble and hardship for every human soul that does evil—to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 10 But there will be glory, honor,
and shalom to
everyone who does good—to the Jew first and also to the Greek.11 For there is no partiality with God.d]”>[d]
12 For all who have sinned outside of Torah will
also perish outside of Torah, and
all who have sinned according to Torah will
be judged by Torah. 13 For it is not the hearers of Torahwho
are righteous before God; rather,
it is the doers of Torah who
will be justified.14 For when Gentiles, who do not have the Torah, do
by nature the things of the Torah, they
are a law to themselves even though they do not have the Torah. 15 They show that the work of the Torah is
written in their hearts, their
conscience bearing witness and their thoughts switching between accusing or defending them 16 on the day when God judges the secrets of men according to my Good News through Messiah Yeshua.
Jewish People Fall Short Too
17 But if you call yourself Jewish and rely upon the Torah and
boast in God 18 and know His will and determine what matters because you are instructed from the Torah— 19 and you are sure that you are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness, 20 a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of the immature, having
in the Torah the
embodiment of knowledge and the truth—
21 you then who teach another, do you not teach yourself?
You who preach not to steal, do you steal?
22 You who say not to commit adultery, do you commit adultery?
You who detest idols, do you rob temples?
23 You who take pride in the Torah,
through your violation of the Torah, do you dishonor God?
24 For as it is written, “the name of God is slandered among the nations because of you.”e]”>[e]

25 Circumcision is indeed worthwhile if you keep the Torah; but
if you break the Torah, your
circumcision has become uncircumcision. f]”>[f] 26 Therefore, if the uncircumcised keeps the righteous decrees of the Torah, will
not his uncircumcision be counted as circumcision? g]”>[g]27 Indeed, the one not circumcised physically who fulfills the Torah will
judge youh]”>[h] who—even with the written codei]”>[i] and circumcision—break the Torah.28 For
one is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision something visible in the flesh. 29 Rather, the Jew is one inwardly, and
circumcision is of the heart—in Spirit not in letter. His
praise is not from men, but from God.j]”>[j]

John 2 Tree of
Life Version (TLV)
Water to Wine
2 On the
third day, there
was a wedding at
Cana in the
Galilee. Yeshua’s mother was
there,2 and Yeshua and His
disciples were also
invited to the
wedding. 3 When the wine
ran out, Yeshua’s mother said
to Him, “They
don’t have
any wine!”
4 Yeshua said to
her, “Woman, what
does this have
to do with
you and Me?
My hour hasn’t come yet.”
5 His mother said
to the servants, “Do
whatever He tells
you.”
6 Now there were
six stone jars,
used for the
Jewish ritual of
purification, each holding two
to three measures. a]”>[a] 7 Yeshua said to
them, “Fill the
jars with water!”
So they filled them
up to the
top. 8 Then He said
to them, “Take
some water out,
and give it
to the headwaiter.” And
they brought it.
9 Now the headwaiter did
not know where
it had come
from, but the
servants who had
drawn the water
knew. As the
headwaiter tasted the
water that had
become wine, he
calls the bridegroom 10 and says
to him, “Everyone brings out
the good wine
first, and whenever they
are drunk, then
the worse. But
you’ve reserved the
good wine until
now!” 11 Yeshua did this,
the first of
the signs, in
Cana of the
Galilee—He revealed His
glory, and His
disciples believed in
Him.
Yeshua Purges the
Temple
12 After this Yeshua went down
to Capernaum with
His mother, brothers,b]”>[b] and disciples, and
they stayed there
a few days. 13 The Jewish feast
of Passover was
near, so Yeshua went up
to Jerusalem. 14 In the
Temple, He found
the merchants selling oxen,
sheep, and doves;
also the moneychangers sitting there. 15 Then He made
a whip of
cords and drove
them all out
of the Temple, both
the sheep and
oxen. He dumped out
the coins of
the moneychangers and
overturned their tables. 16 To those
selling doves, He
said, “Get these
things out of
here! Stop making My
Father’s house
a marketplace!”17 His disciples remembered that
it is written, “Zeal
for your House
will consume Me!”c]”>[c]
18 The Judean leaders responded, “What
sign do You
show us, since
You are doing
these things?”
19 “Destroy this
Temple,” Yeshua answered them,
“and in three
days I will
raise it up.”
20 The Judean leaders then
said to Him,
“Forty-six years
this Temple was
being built, and
You will raise
it up in
three days?” 21 But He
was talking about
the temple of
His body. 22 So after
He was raised from
the dead, His
disciples remembered that
He was talking about
this. Then they
believed the Scripture and
the word that Yeshua had spoken.
23 Now when He
was in Jerusalem for
the Passover, during the
feast, many believed in
His name, seeing the
signs He was
doing. 24 But Yeshua did not
entrust Himself to
them, because He
knew all men. 25 He did not
need anyone to
testify about man,
for He knew
what was in
man.
