Romans 3

1 What advantage then hath the Jew? or what is the profit of circumcision?RV1885 — Romans 3:1

2 Much every way: first of all, that they were intrusted with the oracles of God.RV1885 — Romans 3:2

3 For what if some were without faith? shall their want of faith make of none effect the faithfulness of God?RV1885 — 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.RV1885 — 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.)RV1885 — Romans 3:5

6 God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?RV1885 — 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?RV1885 — 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.RV1885 — 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;RV1885 — Romans 3:9

10 as it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one;RV1885 — Romans 3:10

11 There is none that understandeth, There is none that seeketh after God;RV1885 — 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:RV1885 — 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:RV1885 — Romans 3:13

14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:RV1885 — Romans 3:14

15 Their feet are swift to shed blood;RV1885 — Romans 3:15

16 Destruction and misery are in their ways;RV1885 — Romans 3:16

17 And the way of peace have they not known:RV1885 — Romans 3:17

18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.RV1885 — 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:RV1885 — 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.RV1885 — 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;RV1885 — Romans 3:21

22 even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ unto all them that believe; for there is no distinction;RV1885 — Romans 3:22

23 for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;RV1885 — Romans 3:23

24 being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:RV1885 — 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;RV1885 — 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.RV1885 — 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.RV1885 — Romans 3:27

28 We reckon therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.RV1885 — Romans 3:28

29 Or is God the God of Jews only? is he not the God of Gentiles also? Yea, of Gentiles also:RV1885 — Romans 3:29

30 if so be that God is one, and he shall justify the circumcision by faith, and the uncircumcision through faith.RV1885 — Romans 3:30

31 Do we then make the law of none effect through faith? God forbid: nay, we establish the law.RV1885 — Romans 3:31
