1 What advantage then hath the Jew? or what is the profit of circumcision? ERV — Romans 3:1
2 Much every way: first of all, that they were intrusted with the oracles of God. ERV — Romans 3:2
3 For what if some were without faith? shall their want of faith make of none effect the faithfulness of God? ERV — Romans 3:3
4 God forbid: yea, let God be found true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy words, And mightest prevail when thou comest into judgment. ERV — Romans 3:4
5 But if our unrighteousness commendeth the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who visiteth with wrath? (I speak after the manner of men.) ERV — Romans 3:5
6 God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world? ERV — Romans 3:6
7 But if the truth of God through my lie abounded unto his glory, why am I also still judged as a sinner? ERV — Romans 3:7
8 and why not (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say), Let us do evil, that good may come? whose condemnation is just. ERV — Romans 3:8
9 What then? are we in worse case than they? No, in no wise: for we before laid to the charge both of Jews and Greeks, that they are all under sin; ERV — Romans 3:9
10 as it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one; ERV — Romans 3:10
11 There is none that understandeth, There is none that seeketh after God; ERV — Romans 3:11
12 They have all turned aside, they are together become unprofitable; There is none that doeth good, no, not so much as one: ERV — Romans 3:12
13 Their throat is an open sepulchre; With their tongues they have used deceit: The poison of asps is under their lips: ERV — Romans 3:13
14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: ERV — Romans 3:14
15 Their feet are swift to shed blood; ERV — Romans 3:15
16 Destruction and misery are in their ways; ERV — Romans 3:16
17 And the way of peace have they not known: ERV — Romans 3:17
18 There is no fear of God before their eyes. ERV — Romans 3:18
19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it speaketh to them that are under the law; that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God: ERV — Romans 3:19
20 because by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for through the law cometh the knowledge of sin. ERV — Romans 3:20
21 But now apart from the law a righteousness of God hath been manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; ERV — Romans 3:21
22 even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ unto all them that believe; for there is no distinction; ERV — Romans 3:22
23 for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God; ERV — Romans 3:23
24 being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: ERV — Romans 3:24
25 whom God set forth to be a propitiation, through faith, by his blood, to shew his righteousness, because of the passing over of the sins done aforetime, in the forbearance of God; ERV — Romans 3:25
26 for the shewing, I say, of his righteousness at this present season: that he might himself be just, and the justifier of him that hath faith in Jesus. ERV — Romans 3:26
27 Where then is the glorying? It is excluded. By what manner of law? of works? Nay: but by a law of faith. ERV — Romans 3:27
28 We reckon therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law. ERV — Romans 3:28
29 Or is God the God of Jews only? is he not the God of Gentiles also? Yea, of Gentiles also: ERV — Romans 3:29
30 if so be that God is one, and he shall justify the circumcision by faith, and the uncircumcision through faith. ERV — Romans 3:30
31 Do we then make the law of none effect through faith? God forbid: nay, we establish the law. ERV — Romans 3:31
