This OET Readers’ Version was designed to be used with the Literal Version alongside, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint. This is still an early look into the drafted text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
3:9 No person is guiltless
9 What then? Do Yehudim (Jews) have any advantage? Definitely not, because we showed earlier that both Yehudim and other nationalities are all under sin’s shadow, 10 just like it was written long ago:
‘No one is guiltless,
11 No one understands,
there’s not even one person trying to find God.
it was a waste of time.
13 ‘Their words lead to death,
their tongues are deceptive.’[ref]
‘Their lips spray out poison.’[ref]
14 ‘Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.’[ref]
15 ‘They rush off to go and shed blood.
16 They leave trails of destruction and misery—
17 they don’t know the path that leads to peace.’[ref]
18 Revering God isn’t at the front of their minds.[ref]
19 We know that whatever the law says, it’s for everyone that the law applies to, so that no one can speak against it, and the whole world will be bound by God’s judgement. 20 No human will be declared guiltless in front of God by their keeping the law,[ref] because it’s the law that teaches what sin is.
3:10-12: Psa 14:1-3 (LXX); Psa 53:1-3 (LXX).
