- 1. What aduantage then hath the Iew? or what profit is there of Circumcision?
- 2. Much euery way: chiefly, because that vnto them were committed the Oracles of God.
- 3. For what if some did not beleeue? shall their vnbeliefe make the faith of God without effect?
- 4. God forbid: yea, let God be true, but euery man a lier, as it is written, That thou mightest be iustified in thy sayings, and mightest ouercome when thou art iudged.
- 5. But if our vnrighteousnesse commend the righteousnesse of God, what shall we say? is God vnrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speake as a man)
- 6. God forbid: for then how shall God iudge the world?
- 7. For if the trueth of God hath more abounded through my lye vnto his glory; why yet am I also iudged as a sinner?
- 8. And not rather as wee be slanderously reported, and as some affirme that we say, Let vs doe euill, that good may come: whose damnation is iust.
- 9. What then? are wee better then they? No in no wise: for we haue before proued both Iewes, and Gentiles, that they are all vnder sinne,
- 10. As it is written, There is none righteous, no not one:
- 11. There is none that vnderstandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
- 12. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become vnprofitable, there is none that doeth good, no not one.
- 13. Their throat is an open sepulchre, with their tongues they haue vsed deceit, the poyson of Aspes is vnder their lippes:
- 14. Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitternesse:
- 15. Their feet are swift to shed blood.
- 16. Destruction & misery are in their wayes:
- 17. And the way of peace haue they not knowen.
- 18. There is no feare of God before their eyes.
- 19. Now we know that what things soeuer the Law saith, it saith to them who are vnder the Law: that euery mouth may bee stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
- 20. Therefore by the deedes of the Law, there shall no flesh be iustified in his sight: for by the Law is the knowledge of sinne.
- 21. But nowe the righteousnesse of God without the Lawe is manifested, being witnessed by the Lawe and the Prophets.
- 22. Euen the righteousnesse of God, which is by faith of Iesus Christ vnto all, and vpon all them that beleeue: for there is no difference:
- 23. For all haue sinned, and come short of the glory of God,
- 24. Being iustified freely by his grace, through the redemption that is in Iesus Christ:
- 25. Whom God hath set forth to bee a propitiation, through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousnesse for the remission of sinnes, that are past, through the forbearance of God.
- 26. To declare, I say, at this time his righteousnesse: that hee might bee iust, and the iustifier of him which beleeueth in Iesus.
- 27. Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what Law? Of works? Nay: but by the Law of faith.
- 28. Therefore wee conclude, that a man is iustified by faith, without the deeds of the Law.
- 29. Is he the God of the Iewes only? Is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:
- 30. Seeing it is one God which shal iustifie the circumcision by faith, and vncircumcision through faith.
- 31. Doe we then make void the lawe through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the Law.
