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