Romans 3:9-20 - The Entire World Guilty Of Sin

⁹ What is our conclusion then? Is it that we Jews are better than they? Not at all! For we have already charged that Jews and Greeks alike are all under the sway of sin, ¹⁰ as the Scriptures say: "Not a single human creature is upright, ¹¹ No one understands, no one is searching for God; ¹² They all have turned aside, all have become corrupt; No one does good, not even one! ¹³ Their throats are just like open graves, with their tongues they have spoken treachery; the poison of asps is under their lips. ¹⁴ Their mouths are full of bitter cursing. ¹⁵ Their feet are swift for shedding blood, ¹⁶ Ruin and wretchedness are on their paths, ¹⁷ They do not know the way of peace. ¹⁸ There is no reverence for God before their eyes."

¹⁹ Now we know that everything the law says is spoken to those who are under its authority, that every mouth may be stopped and the whole world be held responsible to God. ²⁰ Because no human creature can be brought into right standing with God by observing the law. For all the law can do is to make men conscious of sin.
