Romans 3
lont@Romans:3:1 @ What is the pre-eminence of the Jew, then? or what profit is there of circumcision?
lont@Romans:3:2 @ Much, in every respect: chiefly, indeed, because they were entrusted with the Oracles of God.
lont@Romans:3:3 @ For, what if some did not believe-will not their unbelief destroy the faithfulness of God?
lont@Romans:3:4 @ «By no means. But let God be true, and every man a liar; as it is written,» 'That thou mayest be justified in thy sayings, and mayest overcome when thou judgest.'
lont@Romans:3:5 @ But if our unrighteousness display the justice of God, what shall we say? Is not God unjust, who inflicts vengeance? (I speak after the manner of men.)
lont@Romans:3:6 @ By no means: otherwise, how shall God judge the world?
lont@Romans:3:7 @ Still, if the truth of God has, through my lie, more abounded to his glory, why am I also yet condemned as a sinner-
lont@Romans:3:8 @ and not because we have done evil that good may come, as we are slandered, and as some affirm that we teach-whose condemnation is just?
lont@Romans:3:9 @ What then? Do we excel? Not at all. For we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles to be all under sin.
lont@Romans:3:10 @ «As it is written,» 'Surely there is none righteous; no, not one.'
lont@Romans:3:11 @ There is none that understands; there is none that seeks after God.
lont@Romans:3:12 @ They are all gone out of the way: they are together become unprofitable. There is none that does good; there is not so much as one.
lont@Romans:3:13 @ Their throat is an open sepulcher: with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:
lont@Romans:3:14 @ their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.
lont@Romans:3:15 @ Their feet are swift to shed blood.
lont@Romans:3:16 @ Destruction and misery lurk in their paths;
lont@Romans:3:17 @ but the path of peace they have not known.
lont@Romans:3:18 @ «There is no fear of God before their eyes.»
lont@Romans:3:19 @ Now we know that whatever things the law says, it says to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and that all the world may be liable to punishment before God.
lont@Romans:3:20 @ Wherefore, by works of law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight; because through law is the knowledge of sin.
lont@Romans:3:21 @ But now, a justification which is of God, without law, is exhibited, attested by the law and the prophets:
lont@Romans:3:22 @ even a justification which is of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, for all, and upon all, who believe; for there is no difference.
lont@Romans:3:23 @ For all, having sinned and come short of the glory of God,
lont@Romans:3:24 @ are justified freely by his favor, through the redemption which is by Christ Jesus:
lont@Romans:3:25 @ whom God has set forth a propitiatory, through faith in his blood, for a demonstration of his own justice, in passing by the sins which were before committed, through the forbearance of God:
lont@Romans:3:26 @ for a demonstration, also, of his justice in the present time, in order that he may be just, when justifying him, who is of the faith of Jesus.
lont@Romans:3:27 @ Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded. By what law? of works? No: but by the law of faith.
lont@Romans:3:28 @ We conclude, then, that by faith man is justified, without works of law.
lont@Romans:3:29 @ Is he the God of the Jews only, and not of the Gentiles, also? Yes, of the Gentiles, also.
lont@Romans:3:30 @ Seeing there is one God, he will justify the circumcision by faith, and the uncircumcision through the faith.
lont@Romans:3:31 @ Do we, then, make law useless through the faith? By no means: but we establish law.
