Chapter 3
Roma NHEBJE 3:1  Then what advantage does the Jew have? Or what is the profit of circumcision?
Roma NHEBJE 3:2  Much in every way! Because first of all, they were entrusted with the oracles of God.
Roma NHEBJE 3:3  For what if some were without faith? Will their lack of faith nullify the faithfulness of God?
Roma NHEBJE 3:4  May it never be! Yes, let God be found true, but every man a liar. As it is written, "That you might be justified in your words, and might prevail when you come into judgment."
Roma NHEBJE 3:5  But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what will we say? Is God unrighteous who inflicts wrath? I speak like men do.
Roma NHEBJE 3:6  May it never be! For then how will God judge the world?
Roma NHEBJE 3:7  For if the truth of God through my lie abounded to his glory, why am I also still judged as a sinner?
Roma NHEBJE 3:8  Why not (as we are slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say), "Let us do evil, that good may come?" Those who say so are justly condemned.
Roma NHEBJE 3:9  What then? Are we better than they? No, in no way. For we previously warned both Jews and Greeks, that they are all under sin.
Roma NHEBJE 3:10  As it is written, "There is no one righteous; no, not one.
Roma NHEBJE 3:11  There is no one who understands. There is no one who seeks after God.
Roma NHEBJE 3:12  They have all turned aside. They have together become unprofitable. There is no one who does good, no, not, so much as one."
Roma NHEBJE 3:13  "Their throat is an open tomb. With their tongues they have used deceit." "The poison of vipers is under their lips;"
Roma NHEBJE 3:14  "Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness."
Roma NHEBJE 3:19  Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God.
Roma NHEBJE 3:20  Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight. For through the law comes the knowledge of sin.
Roma NHEBJE 3:21  But now apart from the law, a righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified by the Law and the Prophets;
Roma NHEBJE 3:22  even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ to all those who believe. For there is no distinction,
Roma NHEBJE 3:23  for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;
Roma NHEBJE 3:24  being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus;
Roma NHEBJE 3:25  whom God set forth to be an atoning sacrifice, through faith in his blood, for a demonstration of his righteousness through the passing over of prior sins, in God's forbearance;
Roma NHEBJE 3:26  to demonstrate his righteousness at this present time; that he might himself be just, and the justifier of him who has faith in Jesus.
Roma NHEBJE 3:27  Where then is the boasting? It is excluded. By what manner of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith.
Roma NHEBJE 3:28  We maintain therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.
Roma NHEBJE 3:29  Or is God the God of Jews only? Is not he the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also,
Roma NHEBJE 3:30  since indeed there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith, and the uncircumcised through faith.
Roma NHEBJE 3:31  Do we then nullify the law through faith? May it never be! No, we establish the law.
