"who “will pay back to everyone according to their works:”"
— Romans 2:6 (World English Bible)
Surrounding context
Do you think this, O man who judges those who practice such things, and do the same, that you will escape the judgment of God?
Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?
But according to your hardness and unrepentant heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath, revelation, and of the righteous judgment of God;
who “will pay back to everyone according to their works:”
to those who by perseverance in well-doing seek for glory, honor, and incorruptibility, eternal life;
but to those who are self-seeking, and don’t obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, will be wrath and indignation,
oppression and anguish, on every soul of man who does evil, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
