3 What then is the advantage of the Jew, or what is the benefit of the circumcision? 2 Great in every way! For indeed first, that they were entrusted with the sayings of God. 3 For what if some were unfaithful? Their unfaithfulness will not nullify the faithfulness of God, will it? 4 May it never be! Instead, let God be true, but every man a liar. Just as it is written, “So that you might be justified in your words and you will prevail when you are judged.”
5 But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what will we say? God is not unrighteous for imposing his wrath, is he? (I speak according to men.) 6 May it never be! Otherwise, how will God judge the world? 7 But if the truth of God through my lie abounds to his glory, why am I still being judged as a sinner? 8 And not (just as we are blasphemed and just as some affirm us to say), “Let us do the evil things, so that the good things may come”?—whose judgment is just.
9 What then? Are we better off? Not at all. For we have already accused both Jews and Greeks, all of them, of being under sin. 10 Just as it is written:
“There is none righteous, not even one.
11 There is none who understands.
There is none who seeks out God.
12 All of them turned away. They together became useless.
There is none doing kindness—there is not even one.”
13 “Their throat is an opened grave.
They keep deceiving with their tongues.
The poison of asps is under their lips,”
14 “whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.”
15 “Their feet are swift to pour out blood.
16 Destruction and suffering are in their ways.
17 And they do not know a way of peace.”
18 “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”
19 Now we know that as many things as the law says, it speaks to the ones with the law, so that every mouth may be shut and all the world may become accountable to God 20 because not any flesh will be justified by works of law before him; for full awareness of sin is through law.
21 But now, apart from the law, the righteousness of God has been made visible, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets; 22 but the righteousness of God is through faith in Jesus Christ for all the ones believing, for there is no distinction. 23 For all sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus; 25 whom God presented as a propitiation through faith in his blood for a demonstration of his righteousness, because of the overlooking of the sins that happened previously 26 in the forbearance of God, for the demonstration of his righteousness at this present time, so that he could be just and justifying the one who is from faith in Jesus.
27 Where then is the boasting? It is excluded. Through what kind of law? Of the works? No! But through a law of faith. 28 For we reckon a man to be justified by faith apart from works of the law. 29 Or is he God of Jews only? Is he not also of Gentiles? Yes, also of Gentiles, 30 if, indeed, God is one, who will justify the circumcision by faith and the uncircumcision through the same faith. 31 Do we then nullify the law through the same faith? May it never be! Instead, we uphold the law.
