Romans 3 — NWB

3Verse 1What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?^{Verse 2}Much every way: chiefly, because that to them were committed the oracles of God.^{Verse 3}For what if some did not believe? will their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?^{Verse 4}By no means: verily let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mayest be justified in thy sayings, and mayest overcome when thou art judged.^{Verse 5}But if our unrighteousness commendeth the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man.)^{Verse 6}By no means: for then how shall God judge the world?^{Verse 7}For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie to his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?^{Verse 8}And not rather (as we are slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.^{Verse 9}What then? are we better than they ? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;^{Verse 10}As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:^{Verse 11}There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh God.^{Verse 12}They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.^{Verse 13}Their throat is an open sepulcher; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:^{Verse 14}Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.^{Verse 15}Their feet are swift to shed blood.^{Verse 16}Destruction and misery are in their ways:^{Verse 17}And the way of peace have they not known.^{Verse 18}There is no fear of God before their eyes.^{Verse 19}Now we know that whatever things the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.^{Verse 20}Therefore by the deeds of the law, there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.^{Verse 21}But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being testified by the law and the prophets;^{Verse 22}Even the righteousness of God, which is by faith of Jesus Christ to all, and upon all them that believe; for there is no difference:^{Verse 23}For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;^{Verse 24}Being justified freely by his grace, through the redemption that is in Jesus Christ:^{Verse 25}Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation, through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;^{Verse 26}To declare, I say , at this time his righteousness: that he may be just, and the justifier of him who believeth in Jesus.^{Verse 27}Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? No; but by the law of faith.^{Verse 28}Therefore we conclude, that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.^{Verse 29}Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:^{Verse 30}Seeing it is one God who will justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.^{Verse 31}Do we then make void the law through faith? By no means: but we establish the law.
