Romans 3
1 What then [is] the superiority of the Jew? Or what [is] the benefit of the circumcision?
What advantage then hath the Jew? or what is the profit of circumcision?
2 Much in every way; Chiefly indeed for for they were entrusted with the oracles of God.
Much every way: first of all, that they were intrusted with the oracles of God.
3 What for if disbelieved some? Surely not the unbelief of them the faithfulness of God will nullify?
For what if some were without faith? shall their want of faith make of none effect the faithfulness of God?
4 Never would it be! should it be however God true, every now man a liar (even as *NK(o)*) it has been written: That then You may be justified in the words of You and (will prevail *N(k)O*) in judging You.
God forbid: yea, let God be found true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy words, And mightest prevail when thou comest into judgment.
5 If however the unrighteousness of us God’s righteousness shows, what will we say? Surely not [is] unrighteous God who is inflicting the wrath? According to man I speak;
But if our unrighteousness commendeth the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who visiteth with wrath? (I speak after the manner of men.)
6 Never would it be! Otherwise how will judge God the world?
God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?
7 If (however *N(k)O*) the truth of God in my lie abounded to the glory of Him, why still also I myself also I myself as a sinner am judged?
But if the truth of God through my lie abounded unto his glory, why am I also still judged as a sinner?
8 And surely even as we are denigrated and even as affirm some [that] we to say that Let us do the [things] evil that may come the good things? Their condemnation just is.
and why not (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say), Let us do evil, that good may come? whose condemnation is just.
9 What then? Are we better? Not at all; We have already charged for Jews both and Greeks all under sin to be
What then? are we in worse case than they? No, in no wise: for we before laid to the charge both of Jews and Greeks, that they are all under sin;
10 Even as it has been written that None there is righteous not even one;
as it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one;
11 none there is who is understanding, none there is who is seeking after God;
There is none that understandeth, There is none that seeketh after God;
12 All turned away, together they became worthless; none there is (who *n*) is practicing good, not there is so much as one.
They have all turned aside, they are together become unprofitable; There is none that doeth good, no, not so much as one:
13 A grave opened [is] the throat of them, with the tongues of them they were practicing deceit; [the] venom of vipers [is] under the lips of them;
Their throat is an open sepulchre; With their tongues they have used deceit: The poison of asps is under their lips:
14 of whom the mouth of cursing and of bitterness is full.
Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
15 swift [are] the feet of them to shed blood;
Their feet are swift to shed blood;
16 ruin and misery [are] in the paths of them;
Destruction and misery are in their ways;
17 and [the] way of peace not they have known.
And the way of peace have they not known:
18 Not there is fear of God before the eyes of them.
There is no fear of God before their eyes.
19 We know now that as much as the law says to those under the law it speaks, so that every mouth may be stopped, and under judgment may be all the world to God.
Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it speaketh to them that are under the law; that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God:
20 Therefore by works of [the] Law not will be justified any flesh before Him; through for [the] Law [is] knowledge of sin.
because by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for through the law [cometh] the knowledge of sin.
21 Now however apart from law [the] righteousness of God has been revealed being borne witness to by the Law and the Prophets,
But now apart from the law a righteousness of God hath been manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
22 [the] righteousness now of God through faith from Jesus Christ toward all (and upon all *K*) those believing; Not for there is distinction.
even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ unto all them that believe; for there is no distinction;
23 All for have sinned and they fall short of the glory of God
for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;
24 being justified freely by the of Him grace through the redemption that [is] in Christ Jesus,
being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25 whom set forth as God a propitiation through faith in His blood for a showing forth of the righteousness of Him because of the forbearance of the having taken place beforehand sins —
whom God set forth [to be] a propitiation, through faith, by his blood, to shew his righteousness, because of the passing over of the sins done aforetime, in the forbearance of God;
26 in the forbearance of God; for (of the *no*) showing forth the righteousness of Him in the present time for to be Him just and justifying the [one] of faith of Jesus.
for the shewing, [I say], of his righteousness at this present season: that he might himself be just, and the justifier of him that hath faith in Jesus.
27 Where then [is] the boasting? It has been excluded. Through what principle? That of works? No, but through [the] principle of faith.
Where then is the glorying? It is excluded. By what manner of law? of works? Nay: but by a law of faith.
28 We reckon (therefore *N(k)O*) to be justified by faith a man apart from works of the Law.
We reckon therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.
29 Or of Jews [is He] the God only, surely [is] (now *k*) also of Gentiles? Yes also of Gentiles,
Or is God [the God] of Jews only? is he not [the God] of Gentiles also? Yea, of Gentiles also:
30 (if indeed if indeed *N(k)O*) One God [is] who will justify [the] circumcision by faith and [the] uncircumcision through the [same] faith.
if so be that God is one, and he shall justify the circumcision by faith, and the uncircumcision through faith.
31 Law then do we nullify through faith? Never would it be! Instead law we uphold.
Do we then make the law of none effect through faith? God forbid: nay, we establish the law.
