Rom.|3:1|-|What then is the advantage of the Jew? Or what is the profit of the circumcision?
Rom.|3:2|-|Much in every way. First, that they were entrusted with the oracles of God.
Rom.|3:3|-|For what if some disbelieved? Shall their unbelief annul the faithfulness of God?
Rom.|3:4|-||1|Absolutely not! But let God be true and every man a liar, as it is written, |a|“That You may be |2|declared righteous in Your words and may overcome when You are judged.”
Rom.|3:5|-|But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is the God who inflicts wrath unrighteous? I speak according to man.
Rom.|3:6|-|Absolutely not! Otherwise how shall God judge the world?
Rom.|3:7|-|But if the |1a|truthfulness of God has abounded in my lie unto His glory, why still am I also being judged as a sinner?
Rom.|3:8|-|And why not say (as we are slanderously charged and as some affirm that we say), Let us do evil that good may come? whose |1|judgment is just.
Rom.|3:9|-|What then? Are we better? Not at all! For we have previously charged both Jews and Greeks that they are all under sin,
Rom.|3:10|-|Even as it is written, |a|“There is none righteous, not even one;
Rom.|3:11|-|There is none who understands, there is none who seeks out God.
Rom.|3:12|-|All have turned aside; together they have become useless; there is none who does |1|good; there is not so much as one.
Rom.|3:13|-||a|Their throat is an opened grave; with their tongues they practiced deceit; |b|the poison of asps is under their lips;
Rom.|3:14|-||a|Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.
Rom.|3:15|-||a|Swift are their feet to shed blood,
Rom.|3:16|-|Destruction and misery are in their ways,
Rom.|3:17|-|And the |1|way of peace they have not known.
Rom.|3:18|-||a|There is no fear of God before their eyes.”
Rom.|3:19|-|Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, |1|that every mouth may be stopped and all the world may fall under the judgment of God;
Rom.|3:20|-|Because |a|out of the works of the law no flesh shall be justified before Him; for |b|through the law is the clear knowledge of sin.
Rom.|3:21|-|But now, |1|apart from the law, the |2|righteousness of God has been |3|manifested, witness being borne to it by the Law and the Prophets;
Rom.|3:22|-|Even the righteousness of God through the |1|faith of Jesus Christ to all those who believe, for there is no distinction;
Rom.|3:23|-|For |a|all have sinned and fall short of the |1|glory of God,
Rom.|3:24|-|Being |1|justified |2|freely by His grace through the |3|redemption which is in Christ Jesus;
Rom.|3:25|-|Whom God |1|set forth as a |2a|propitiation place through faith in His blood, for the demonstrating of His righteousness, in that in His forbearance God |3|passed over the sins that had previously occurred,
Rom.|3:26|-|With a view to the demonstrating of His righteousness in the present time, so that He might be righteous and the One who |1|justifies him who is of the |2|faith of Jesus.
Rom.|3:27|-|Where then is boasting? |1|It is excluded. Through what kind of law? That of works? No, but through the law of faith.
Rom.|3:28|-|For we account that |a|a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.
Rom.|3:29|-|Or is He the God of the Jews only? Is He not of the Gentiles also? Yes, of the Gentiles also,
Rom.|3:30|-|If indeed God is one, who will justify the circumcision |1|out of faith and the |a|uncircumcision |1|through faith.
Rom.|3:31|-|Do we then make the law of no effect through faith? Absolutely not! Rather, we establish the law.
