noyes@Romans:3:1 @ What then is the advantage of the Jew? or what the benefit of circumcision?

noyes@Romans:3:2 @ Great, every way. In the first place, because they were entrusted with the oracles of God.

noyes@Romans:3:3 @ For what? If some were unfaithful, shall their unfaithfulness make God unfaithful?

noyes@Romans:3:4 @ Far be it! yea, let God be true, and every man a liar; as it is written, "That thou mayst be justified in thy words, and mayst overcome when thou art arraigned."

noyes@Romans:3:5 @ But if our unrighteousness serve to display the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who inflicteth punishment? (I am speaking as men do.)

noyes@Romans:3:6 @ Far be it! For then how shall God judge the world?

noyes@Romans:3:7 @ For if, through my being false, the truth of God hath been more abundantly manifested to his glory, why am I still judged as a sinner?

noyes@Romans:3:8 @ And why do you not say, as some slanderously charge us with saying, Let us do evil, that good may come? The condemnation of such men is just.

noyes@Romans:3:9 @ What then? Are we better than others? By no means! For we have already brought a charge both against Jews and Greeks, that they are all under sin.

noyes@Romans:3:10 @ As it is written: "There is none righteous, no, not one;

noyes@Romans:3:11 @ there is none that hath understanding, there is none that diligently seeketh God;

noyes@Romans:3:12 @ they have all turned aside from the right way, they have become worthless together; there is none that doeth good, not even one.

noyes@Romans:3:13 @ Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have practised deceit. The poison of asps is under their lips.

noyes@Romans:3:14 @ Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.

noyes@Romans:3:15 @ Swift are their feet to shed blood;

noyes@Romans:3:16 @ destruction and misery are in their ways;

noyes@Romans:3:17 @ and the way of peace they know not.

noyes@Romans:3:18 @ There is no fear of God before their eyes."

noyes@Romans:3:19 @ Now we know that whatever the Law saith, it saith to those who are under the Law; that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world become subject to condemnation before God.

noyes@Romans:3:20 @ Because by works of the Law no flesh shall be accepted as righteous: for by the Law is the knowledge of sin.

noyes@Romans:3:21 @ But now, apart from the Law, the righteousness which is of God, to which the Law and the Prophets bear testimony,

noyes@Romans:3:22 @ even the righteousness which is of God through faith in Jesus Christ, hath been made manifest to all and for all believers. For there is no distinction.

noyes@Romans:3:23 @ For all have sinned, and fail of obtaining the glory which cometh from God;

noyes@Romans:3:24 @ being accepted as righteous freely, by his grace, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,

noyes@Romans:3:25 @ whom, in his blood, through faith, God hath set forth as a propitiatory sacrifice, in order to manifest his righteousness, on account of his passing by, in his forbearance, the sins committed in former times;

noyes@Romans:3:26 @ in order to manifest his righteousness at the present time, so that he may be righteous, and accept as righteous him who hath faith.

noyes@Romans:3:27 @ Where then is the boasting? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay; but by the law of faith.

noyes@Romans:3:28 @ We conclude therefore, that a man is accepted as righteous through faith, without the works of the Law.

noyes@Romans:3:29 @ Or is God of Jews alone? Is he not also the God of gentiles? Yea, of gentiles also.

noyes@Romans:3:30 @ Seeing there is but one God, who will accept the circumcised as righteous by faith, and the uncircumcised through faith.

noyes@Romans:3:31 @ Do we then make void the Law through faith? Far be it! On the contrary, we establish the Law.
