1 What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit [is there] of circumcision?
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
2 Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
3 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
5 But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? [Is] God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
6 God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
7 For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
8 And not [rather], (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.
[jwc]
[pnt]
9 What then? are we better [than they]? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
[jwc]
[pnt]
12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
[jwc]
[pnt]
13 Their throat [is] an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps [is] under their lips:
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
14 Whose mouth [is] full of cursing and bitterness:
[jfb]
[jwc]
15 Their feet [are] swift to shed blood:
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
16 Destruction and misery [are] in their ways:
[jfb]
17 And the way of peace have they not known:
[gsn]
[jwc]
18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law [is] the knowledge of sin.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
22 Even the righteousness of God [which is] by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
25 Whom God hath set forth [to be] a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
26 To declare, [I say], at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
27 Where [is] boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
29 [Is he] the God of the Jews only? [is he] not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
30 Seeing [it is] one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
[pnt]
31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
[gsn]
[jfb]
[jwc]
