| 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. |
