Romans 3:12-26

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

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

¹⁴Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:

¹⁵Their feet swift to shed blood:

¹⁶Destruction and misery in their ways:

¹⁷And the way of peace they have not known:

¹⁸There is no fear of God before their eyes.

¹⁹Now 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.

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

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

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

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

²⁴Being justified freely by his grace, through the redemption, that is in Christ Jesus,

²⁵Whom God hath proposed to be a propitiation, through faith in his blood, to the shewing of his justice, for the remission of former sins,

²⁶Through the forbearance of God, for the shewing of his justice in this time; that he himself may be just, and the justifier of him, who is of the faith of Jesus Christ.
