Romans 3:10-23 in English

¹⁰ as it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one;

¹¹ There is none that understandeth, There is none that seeketh after God;

¹² They have all turned aside, they are together become unprofitable; There is none that doeth good, no, not so much as one:

¹³ Their throat is an open sepulchre; With their tongues they have used deceit: The poison of asps is under their lips:

¹⁴ Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:

¹⁵ Their feet are swift to shed blood;

¹⁶ Destruction and misery are in their ways;

¹⁷ And the way of peace have they not known:

¹⁸ There is no fear of God before their eyes.

¹⁹ 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 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 But now apart from the law a righteousness of God hath been manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;

²² even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ unto all them that believe; for there is no distinction;

²³ for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;

¹⁰ As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

¹¹ There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.

¹² They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

¹³ Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:

¹⁴ Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:

¹⁵ Their feet are swift to shed blood:

¹⁶ Destruction and misery are in their ways:

¹⁷ And the way of peace have they not known:

¹⁸ There is no fear of God before their eyes.

¹⁹ Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

²⁰ Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;

²² Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:

²³ For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

¹⁰ as it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one;

¹¹ There is none that understandeth, There is none that seeketh after God;

¹² They have all turned aside, they are together become unprofitable; There is none that doeth good, no, not so much as one:

¹³ Their throat is an open sepulchre; With their tongues they have used deceit: The poison of asps is under their lips:

¹⁴ Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:

¹⁵ Their feet are swift to shed blood;

¹⁶ Destruction and misery are in their ways;

¹⁷ And the way of peace have they not known:

¹⁸ There is no fear of God before their eyes.

¹⁹ 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 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 But now apart from the law a righteousness of God hath been manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;

²² even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ unto all them that believe; for there is no distinction;

²³ for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;

¹⁰ The following words that are written {prophets have written} in the Scriptures support this, No person is righteous. There is not even one righteous person!

¹¹ There is no one who understands how to live properly (OR, about God). There is no one who seeks/desires to know God!

¹² Absolutely everyone has turned away MET from God. God considers them depraved (OR, Everyone has become useless to God). There is no one who acts righteously; no, there is not even one!

¹³ What people say MTY is foul/bad, like the smell that comes from a grave that has been {that people have} opened MET. By what people say MTY, they deceive people. By what they say MTY they injure people, just like the poison of snakes injures people MET.

¹⁴ They are continually ◄cursing/asking God to do harmful things to► others and saying ◄cruel/harsh/hateful► things MTY.

¹⁵ They ◄go quickly/are eager► to murder people MTY.

¹⁶ Wherever they go, they ruin everything and make people miserable MTY.

¹⁷ They have not/never known how to live peacefully with other people.

¹⁸ They absolutely refuse to fear/reverence God SYN!

¹⁹ Furthermore, we know that it is to Jewish people, who are required to obey God's laws, that Moses wrote those laws PRS. We can infer from this that there are no Jews or non-Jews SYN who are able to say anything in reply to God's saying that he will punish them for having sinned. God has declared everyone in the world MTY guilty!

²⁰ It is not because people have done the things that God's laws require that God will ◄erase the record of their sins/declare them no longer guilty for sin►, because no one has done those things completely. In fact, the result of our knowing God's laws is that we know clearly that we have sinned (OR, are sinful).

²¹ But God's ◄erasing the record of our sins/declaring us no longer guilty► does not depend on our obeying the laws that he gave Moses. It has now been { God has now} revealed to us how he erases the record of our sins by a different way. It was written about by Moses { Moses wrote about it} in the laws PRS God gave him, and it was also written about by the prophets {the prophets also wrote about it}.

²² God erases the record of our sins because we trust in what Jesus Christ has done for us. God does this for every person who trusts in Christ, because he considers that there is no difference between Jews and non-Jews.

²³ All people have done evil, and all people have failed to accomplish the glorious goals that God set for them.

¹⁰ As it is written, “There is no one righteous; no, not one.

¹¹ There is no one who understands. There is no one who seeks after God.

¹² They have all turned away. They have together become unprofitable. There is no one who does good, no, not so much as one.”

¹³ “Their throat is an open tomb. With their tongues they have used deceit.” “The poison of vipers is under their lips.”

¹⁴ “Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.”

¹⁵ “Their feet are swift to shed blood.

¹⁶ Destruction and misery are in their ways.

¹⁷ The way of peace, they haven’t known.”

¹⁸ “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”

¹⁹ Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God.

²⁰ Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight; for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now apart from the law, a righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified by the law and the prophets;

²² even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ to all and on all those who believe. For there is no distinction,

²³ for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;

¹⁰ As it is written, “There is no one righteous; no, not one.

¹¹ There is no one who understands. There is no one who seeks after God.

¹² They have all turned away. They have together become unprofitable. There is no one who does good, no, not so much as one.”

¹³ “Their throat is an open tomb. With their tongues they have used deceit.” “The poison of vipers is under their lips.”

¹⁴ “Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.”

¹⁵ “Their feet are swift to shed blood.

¹⁶ Destruction and misery are in their ways.

¹⁷ The way of peace, they haven’t known.”

¹⁸ “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”

¹⁹ Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God.

²⁰ Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight; for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now apart from the law, a righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified by the law and the prophets;

²² even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ to all and on all those who believe. For there is no distinction,

²³ for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;

¹⁰ As it is written, “There is no one righteous; no, not one.

¹¹ There is no one who understands. There is no one who seeks after God.

¹² They have all turned away. They have together become unprofitable. There is no one who does good, no, not so much as one.”

¹³ “Their throat is an open tomb. With their tongues they have used deceit.” “The poison of vipers is under their lips.”

¹⁴ “Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.”

¹⁵ “Their feet are swift to shed blood.

¹⁶ Destruction and misery are in their ways.

¹⁷ The way of peace, they haven’t known.”

¹⁸ “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”

¹⁹ Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may be brought under the judgement of God.

²⁰ Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight; for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now apart from the law, a righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified by the law and the prophets;

²² even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ to all and on all those who believe. For there is no distinction,

²³ for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;

¹⁰ As it is said in the holy Writings, There is not one who does righteousness;

¹¹ Not one who has the knowledge of what is right, not one who is a searcher after God;

¹² They have all gone out of the way, there is no profit in any of them; there is not one who does good, not so much as one:

¹³ Their throat is like an open place of death; with their tongues they have said what is not true: the poison of snakes is under their lips:

¹⁴ Whose mouth is full of curses and bitter words:

¹⁵ Their feet are quick in running after blood;

¹⁶ Destruction and trouble are in their ways;

¹⁷ And of the way of peace they have no knowledge:

¹⁸ There is no fear of God before their eyes.

¹⁹ Now, we have knowledge that what the law says is for those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and all men may be judged by God:

²⁰ Because by the works of the law no man is able to have righteousness in his eyes, for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now without the law there is a revelation of the righteousness of God, to which witness is given by the law and the prophets;

²² That is, the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ, to all those who have faith; and one man is not different from another,

²³ For all have done wrong and are far from the glory of God;

¹⁰ according as it is written, There is not a righteous man, not even one;

¹¹ there is not the man that understands, there is not one that seeks after God.

¹² All have gone out of the way, they have together become unprofitable; there is not one that practises goodness, there is not so much as one:

¹³ their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; asps' poison is under their lips:

¹⁴ whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness;

¹⁵ swift their feet to shed blood;

¹⁶ ruin and misery are in their ways,

¹⁷ and way of peace they have not known:

¹⁸ there is no fear of God before their eyes.

¹⁹ Now we know that whatever the things the law says, it speaks to those under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world be under judgment to God.

²⁰ Wherefore by works of law no flesh shall be justified before him; for by law is knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now without law righteousness of God is manifested, borne witness to by the law and the prophets;

²² righteousness of God by faith of Jesus Christ towards all, and upon all those who believe: for there is no difference;

²³ for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

¹⁰ As it is written: There is not any man just.

¹¹ There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.

¹² All have turned out of the way; they are become unprofitable together: there is none that doth good, there is not so much as one.

¹³ Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have dealt deceitfully. The venom of asps is under their lips.

¹⁴ Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:

¹⁵ Their feet swift to shed blood:

¹⁶ Destruction and misery in their ways:

¹⁷ And the way of peace they have not known:

¹⁸ There is no fear of God before their eyes.

¹⁹ Now we know, that what things soever the law speaketh, it speaketh to them that are in the law; that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may be made subject to God.

²⁰ Because by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified before him. For by the law is the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now without the law the justice of God is made manifest, being witnessed by the law and the prophets.

²² Even the justice of God, by faith of Jesus Christ, unto all and upon all them that believe in him: for there is no distinction:

²³ For all have sinned, and do need the glory of God.

¹⁰ Just as it is written: “There is none righteous, no not one.

¹¹ There is none who understands; there is none who seeks God.

¹² All have turned aside; together they became unprofitable; there is not one doing kindness, there is not so much as one.

¹³ Their throat is an opened grave; with their tongues they deceived; the poison of asps is under their lips;

¹⁴ Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.

¹⁵ Their feet are swift to shed blood;

¹⁶ Ruin and misery are in their ways;

¹⁷ and the way of peace they did not know.

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 those under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may be held accountable to God.

²⁰ Therefore by works of the law no flesh shall be justified in His sight, for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now the righteousness of God apart from the law has been revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets,

²² even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and upon all those that believe. For there is no distinction;

²³ for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God,

¹⁰ Just as it is written: “No one is righteous, not even one;

¹¹ there is no one who understands, no one who seeks God.

¹² All have turned aside, together they have been made useless; there is no one who shows kindness, no, not so much as one.”

¹³ “Their throat is an opened grave; they habitually deceive with their tongues.” “Viper's venom is under their lips”;

¹⁴ “whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.”

¹⁵ “Their feet are swift to shed blood;

¹⁶ ruin and wretchedness are in their paths,

¹⁷ and the way of peace they have not known.”

¹⁸ “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”

¹⁹ Now we know that whatever the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be shut and the whole world become accountable to God.

²⁰ It follows that no flesh will be justified in His sight by the works of the law, because through the law comes the real knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now, apart from law, a righteousness from God has been revealed, being attested by the Law and the Prophets,

²² namely, a righteousness from God through faith in Jesus Christ, into all and upon all those who believe. There is no difference:

²³ all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

¹⁰ As Scripture says, “No one does what is right, not even one.

¹¹ No one understands; no one seeks God.

¹² Everyone has turned their backs on him; everyone does what is totally wrong. No one does what is good, not a single one.

¹³ Their throats are like an open grave; their tongues spread deceit; their lips ooze with the venom of snakes.

¹⁴ Their mouths are full of bitterness and curses,

¹⁵ and they are quick to cause pain and death.

¹⁶ Their way leads to disaster and misery;

¹⁷ they don't know how to live in peace.

¹⁸ They don't care about respecting God at all.”

¹⁹ It's clear that everything in the law applies to those who live under the law so that no one could have any excuses, and to make sure everyone in the whole world is answerable to God.

²⁰ For no one is made right before God by doing what the law requires. The law only helps us recognize what sin really is.

²¹ But now God's character of goodness and right has been demonstrated. It has nothing to do with law-keeping, even though it was spoken of by the law and the prophets.

²² This character of God that is good and right comes to everyone who trusts in Jesus Christ, those who place their confidence in him. It doesn't matter who we are:

²³ We have all sinned, and we fall far short of God's glorious ideal.

¹⁰ As it is written, There is none righteous, no not one.

¹¹ There is none that vnderstandeth: there is none that seeketh God.

¹² They haue all gone out of the way: they haue bene made altogether vnprofitable: there is none that doeth good, no not one.

¹³ Their throte is an open sepulchre: they haue vsed their tongues to deceit: the poyson of aspes is vnder their lippes.

¹⁴ Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitternesse.

¹⁵ Their feete are swift to shead blood.

¹⁶ Destruction and calamity are in their waies,

¹⁷ And ye way of peace they haue not knowen.

¹⁸ The feare of God is not before their eies.

¹⁹ Now we know that whatsoeuer ye Lawe saieth, it saieth it to them which are vnder ye Law, that euery mouth may bee stopped, and all the world be subiect to the iudgement of God.

²⁰ Therefore by the woorkes of the Lawe shall no flesh be iustified in his sight: for by the Lawe commeth the knowledge of sinne.

²¹ But nowe is the righteousnesse, of God made manifest without the Lawe, hauing witnes of the Lawe and of the Prophets,

²² To wit, the righteousnesse of God by the faith of Iesus Christ, vnto all, and vpon all that beleeue.

²³ For there is no difference: for all haue sinned, and are depriued of the glorie of God,

¹⁰ as it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

¹¹ there is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.

¹² They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

¹³ Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:

¹⁴ whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:

¹⁵ their feet are swift to shed blood:

¹⁶ destruction and misery are in their ways:

¹⁷ and the way of peace have they not known:

¹⁸ there is no fear of God before their eyes.

¹⁹ Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

²⁰ Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;

²² even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:

²³ for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

¹⁰ As it is written: “There is none righteous, no, not one;

¹¹ there is none that hath understanding, there is none that diligently seeketh God;

¹² they have all turned aside from the right way, they have become worthless together; there is none that doeth good, not even one.

¹³ Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have practised deceit. The poison of asps is under their lips.

¹⁴ Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.

¹⁵ Swift are their feet to shed blood;

¹⁶ destruction and misery are in their ways;

¹⁷ and the way of peace they know not.

¹⁸ There is no fear of God before their eyes.”

¹⁹ Now we know that whatever the Law saith, it saith to those who are under the Law; that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world become subject to condemnation before God.

²⁰ Because by works of the Law no flesh shall be accepted as righteous: for by the Law is the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now, apart from the Law, the righteousness which is of God, to which the Law and the Prophets bear testimony,

²² even the righteousness which is of God through faith in Jesus Christ, hath been made manifest to all and for all believers. For there is no distinction.

²³ For all have sinned, and fail of obtaining the glory which cometh from God;

¹⁰ As scripture says — ‘There is not even one who is righteous,

¹¹ not one who understands, not one who is searching for God!

¹² They have all gone astray; they have one and all become depraved; there is no one who is doing good — no, not one!’

¹³ ‘Their throats are like opened graves; they deceive with their tongues.’ ‘The venom of snakes lies behind their lips,’

¹⁴ ‘And their mouths are full of bitter curses.’

¹⁵ ‘Swift are their feet to shed blood.

¹⁶ Distress and trouble dog their steps,

¹⁷ and the path of peace they do not know.’

¹⁸ ‘The fear of God is not before their eyes.’

¹⁹ Now we know that everything said in the Law is addressed to those who are under its authority, in order that every mouth may be closed, and to bring the whole world under God's judgement.

²⁰ For no human being will be pronounced righteous before God as the result of obedience to Law; for it is Law that shows what sin is.

²¹ But now, quite apart from Law, the divine righteousness stands revealed, and to it the Law and the prophets bear witness —

²² the divine righteousness which is bestowed, through faith in Jesus Christ, on all, without distinction, who believe in him.

²³ For all have sinned, and all fall short of God's glorious ideal,

¹⁰ As scripture says — ‘There is not even one who is righteous,

¹¹ not one who understands, not one who is searching for God!

¹² They have all gone astray; they have one and all become depraved; there is no one who is doing good — no, not one!’

¹³ ‘Their throats are like opened graves; they deceive with their tongues.’ ‘The venom of snakes lies behind their lips,’

¹⁴ ‘And their mouths are full of bitter curses.’

¹⁵ ‘Swift are their feet to shed blood.

¹⁶ Distress and trouble dog their steps,

¹⁷ and the path of peace they do not know.’

¹⁸ ‘The fear of God is not before their eyes.’

¹⁹ Now we know that everything said in the Law is addressed to those who are under its authority, in order that every mouth may be closed, and to bring the whole world under God's judgment.

²⁰ For no human being will be pronounced righteous before God as the result of obedience to Law; for it is Law that shows what sin is.

²¹ But now, quite apart from Law, the divine righteousness stands revealed, and to it the Law and the prophets bear witness —

²² the divine righteousness which is bestowed, through faith in Jesus Christ, on all, without distinction, who believe in him.

²³ For all have sinned, and all fall short of God's glorious ideal,

¹⁰ Like we read in God’s book, “Nobody is really good, not even one person,

¹¹ Nobody understands about God, nobody even tries to get to know him.

¹² Everybody turns away from God, They all go wrong, Not even one of them does good things.

¹³ They say things that make big trouble for other people, Whenever they talk, they tell lies and trick people. Their mouths are like the mouths of a cheeky snakes.

¹⁴ They just swear at other people and say bad things about them.

¹⁵ They quickly get up and to kill other people,

¹⁶ Wherever they go they hurt people and make them really sad.

¹⁷ They can’t live without fighting.

¹⁸ They don’t respect God or take any notice of him.”

¹⁹ You know, it’s like this. God gave the law to the Jewish people and they have to do everything it says. And God is the judge of everybody in the whole world. We all have to answer to him. Nobody has kept all of that law, so nobody can argue with him. Nobody can tell God, “I have kept all those laws, so I’m all right. You can’t punish me.” We can’t say that because we all broke that law at some time. So why is the law there? It is there just to let us know that we always go wrong. That’s what it is there for.

²¹ But now God shows us a different way. If we follow this way he will be happy with us. It is not about that law, whether we follow it or not, but it is about Jesus Christ, whether we believe in him or not. God tells us about this in his book. (We can read it in the part that has his law as well as in the other part that he got his men to write.) God will save us if we trust in Jesus. It doesn’t matter who we are. God treats everybody the same.

²³ We all went wrong and did bad things. None of us is as good as God wants us to be.

¹⁰ as it is writte: There is none righteous no not one:

¹¹ There is none that vnderstondith there is none that seketh after God

¹² they are all gone out of the waye they are all made vnprofytable ther is none that doeth good no not one.

¹³ Their throte is an open sepulchre with their tounges they have disceaved: the poyson of Aspes is vnder their lippes.

¹⁴ Whose mouthes are full of coursynge and bitternes.

¹⁵ Their fete are swyfte to sheed bloud.

¹⁶ Destruccion and wretchednes are in their wayes.

¹⁷ And the waye of peace they have not knowen.

¹⁸ There is no feare of God before their eyes.

¹⁹ Ye and we knowe that whatsoever the lawe sayth he sayth it to them which are vnder the lawe. That all mouthes maye be stopped and all the worlde be subdued to god because that by the dedes of the lawe shall no flesshe be iustified in the sight of God.

²⁰ For by the lawe commeth the knowledge of synne.

²¹ Now verely is the rightewesnes that cometh of God declared without the fulfillinge of the lawe havinge witnes yet of the lawe and of the Prophetes.

²² The rightewesnes no dout which is good before God cometh by the fayth of Iesus Christ vnto all and vpon all that beleve. Ther is no difference:

²³ for all have synned and lacke the prayse that is of valoure before God:

¹⁰ This is as it is written: “There is no one righteous, not one.

¹¹ There is no one who understands. There is no one who seeks after God.

¹² They have all turned away. They together have become useless. There is no one who does good, no, not even one.”

¹³ “Their throat is an open grave. Their tongues have deceived. The poison of snakes is under their lips.”

¹⁴ “Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.”

¹⁵ “Their feet are swift to pour out blood.

¹⁶ Destruction and suffering are in their paths.

¹⁷ These people have not known a way of peace.”

¹⁸ “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”

¹⁹ Now we know that whatever the law says, it speaks to the ones who are under the law. This is in order that every mouth may be shut, and the whole world held accountable to God.

²⁰ This is because no flesh will be justified by the works of the law in his sight. For through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known. It was witnessed by the Law and the Prophets,

²² that is, the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe. For there is no distinction.

²³ For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God,

¹⁰ As it is written, “There is no one righteous; no, not one.

¹¹ There is no one who understands. There is no one who seeks after God.

¹² They have all turned away. They have together become unprofitable. There is no one who does good, no, not so much as one.”

¹³ “Their throat is an open tomb. With their tongues they have used deceit.” “The poison of vipers is under their lips.”

¹⁴ “Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.”

¹⁵ “Their feet are swift to shed blood.

¹⁶ Destruction and misery are in their ways.

¹⁷ The way of peace, they haven’t known.”

¹⁸ “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”

¹⁹ Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God.

²⁰ Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight; for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now apart from the law, a righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified by the law and the prophets;

²² even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ to all and on all those who believe. For there is no distinction,

²³ for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;

¹⁰ As it is written, “There is no one righteous; no, not one.

¹¹ There is no one who understands. There is no one who seeks after God.

¹² They have all turned away. They have together become unprofitable. There is no one who does good, no, not so much as one.”

¹³ “Their throat is an open tomb. With their tongues they have used deceit.” “The poison of vipers is under their lips.”

¹⁴ “Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.”

¹⁵ “Their feet are swift to shed blood.

¹⁶ Destruction and misery are in their ways.

¹⁷ The way of peace, they haven’t known.”

¹⁸ “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”

¹⁹ Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may be brought under the judgement of God.

²⁰ Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight; for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now apart from the law, a righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified by the law and the prophets;

²² even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ to all and on all those who believe. For there is no distinction,

²³ for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;

¹⁰ As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

¹¹ There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh God.

¹² They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

¹³ Their throat is an open sepulcher; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:

¹⁴ Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.

¹⁵ Their feet are swift to shed blood.

¹⁶ Destruction and misery are in their ways:

¹⁷ And the way of peace have they not known.

¹⁸ There is no fear of God before their eyes.

¹⁹ Now we know that whatever things the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

²⁰ Therefore by the deeds of the law, there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being testified by the law and the prophets;

²² Even the righteousness of God, which is by faith of Jesus Christ to all, and upon all them that believe; for there is no difference:

²³ For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

¹⁰ As it is written, “There is no one righteous; no, not one.

¹¹ There is no one who understands. There is no one who seeks after God.

¹² They have all turned away. They have together become unprofitable. There is no one who does good, no, not so much as one.”

¹³ “Their throat is an open tomb. With their tongues they have used deceit.” “The poison of vipers is under their lips.”

¹⁴ “Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.”

¹⁵ “Their feet are swift to shed blood.

¹⁶ Destruction and misery are in their ways.

¹⁷ The way of peace, they haven’t known.”

¹⁸ “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”

¹⁹ Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may be brought under the judgment of God.

²⁰ Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight; for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now apart from the law, a righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified by the Torah and the Prophets;

²² even the righteousness of God through faith in Yeshua the Messiah to all and on all those who believe. For there is no distinction,

²³ for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;

¹⁰ As it is written, “There is no one righteous; no, not one.

¹¹ There is no one who understands. There is no one who seeks after God.

¹² They have all turned away. They have together become unprofitable. There is no one who does good, no, not so much as one.”

¹³ “Their throat is an open tomb. With their tongues they have used deceit.” “The poison of vipers is under their lips.”

¹⁴ “Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.”

¹⁵ “Their feet are swift to shed blood.

¹⁶ Destruction and misery are in their ways.

¹⁷ The way of peace, they haven’t known.”

¹⁸ “There is no fear of God before their eyes.”

¹⁹ Now we know that whatever things the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may be brought under the judgement of God.

²⁰ Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight; for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

²¹ But now apart from the law, a righteousness of God has been revealed, being testified by the Torah and the Prophets;

²² even the righteousness of God through faith in Yeshua the Messiah to all and on all those who believe. For there is no distinction,

²³ for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;

¹⁰ as it is written, For there is no man just;

¹¹ there is no man understanding, neither seeking God.

¹² All bowed away, together they be made unprofitable; there is none that doeth good thing, there is none till to one.

¹³ The throat of them is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they did guilefully, or treacherously; the venom of snakes is under their lips.

¹⁴ The mouth of whom is full of cursing and bitterness;

¹⁵ the feet of them be swift to shed blood.

¹⁶ Sorrow and cursedness be in the ways of them,

¹⁷ and they knew not the way of peace;

¹⁸ the dread of God is not before their eyes.

¹⁹ And we know, that whatever things the law speaketh, it speaketh to them that be in the law, that each mouth be stopped, and each world be made subject to God.

²⁰ For of the works of the law each flesh shall not be justified before him; for by the law there is knowing of sin.

²¹ But now without the law the rightwiseness of God is showed, that is witnessed of the law and the prophets.

²² And the rightwiseness of God is by the faith of Jesus Christ into all men and on all men that believe in him; for there is no parting or distinction.

²³ For all men sinned, and have need to the glory of God;

¹⁰ as it is written, For there is no man (that is) just; (as it is written, For there is no one who is righteous;)

¹¹ there is no man understanding, neither seeking God.

¹² All bowed away, together they be made unprofitable; there is none that doeth (any) good thing, there is none till to one.

¹³ The throat of them is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they did guilefully, or treacherously; the venom of snakes is under their lips.

¹⁴ The mouth of whom is full of cursing and bitterness;

¹⁵ the feet of them be swift to shed blood.

¹⁶ Sorrow and cursedness be in the ways of them, +Contrition, or defouling together, and infelicity/unhappiness be in the ways of them,

¹⁷ and they knew not the way of peace;

¹⁸ the dread of God is not before their eyes. (the fear of God, or fearful reverence for God, is not in their thoughts.)

¹⁹ And we know, that whatever things the law speaketh, it speaketh to them that be in the law, (so) that each mouth be stopped, and each world be made subject to God.

²⁰ For of the works of the law each flesh shall not be justified before him; for by the law there is knowing of sin.

²¹ But now without the law the rightwiseness of God is showed, that is witnessed of the law and the prophets. (But now without the Law God’s righteousness is shown, which is testified to by the Law and the prophets.)

²² And the rightwiseness of God is by the faith of Jesus Christ into all men and on all men that believe in him; for there is no parting or distinction.

²³ For all men sinned, and have need to the glory of God; (For all have sinned, and have need of God’s glory;)

¹⁰ according as it hath been written — 'There is none righteous, not even one;

¹¹ There is none who is understanding, there is none who is seeking after God.

¹² All did go out of the way, together they became unprofitable, there is none doing good, there is not even one.

¹³ A sepulchre opened is their throat; with their tongues they used deceit; poison of asps is under their lips.

¹⁴ Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.

¹⁵ Swift are their feet to shed blood.

¹⁶ Ruin and misery are in their ways.

¹⁷ And a way of peace they did not know.

¹⁸ There is no fear of God before their eyes.'

¹⁹ And we have known that as many things as the law saith, to those in the law it doth speak, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may come under judgment to God;

²⁰ wherefore by works of law shall no flesh be declared righteous before Him, for through law is a knowledge of sin.

²¹ And now apart from law hath the righteousness of God been manifested, testified to by the law and the prophets,

²² and the righteousness of God is through the faith of Jesus Christ to all, and upon all those believing, — for there is no difference,

²³ for all did sin, and are come short of the glory of God —
