the Son of man is come eating and drinking, and they say, Behold, what a man! a glutton and a wine-bibber, a friend of publicans and sinners: though wisdom hath been justified by her children.

The men of Nineveh shall rise up in judgment against this generation, and condemn it: for they repented on the preaching of Jonah; and behold, a greater than Jonah is here.

Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun, in the kingdom of their Father. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

Even as the Son of man came not to be waited upon, but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many.

for this is my blood, that [blood] of the new testament, which is shed for many, for the remission of sins.

And all the people when they heard it, and the publicans, glorified God, being baptised with the baptism of John.

though wisdom hath been justified by her children.

For I tell you, that what hath already been written must be fulfilled in me, namely, "He was numbered with the transgressors:" for the things also concerning me draw to their period.

repeatedly urging both on Jews and Greeks repentance towards God, and faith towards our Lord Jesus Christ.

And now why delay? arise, to be baptised, and wash away thy sins, calling upon the name of the Lord.

to open their eyes, to convert them from darkness to light, and from the dominion of Satan unto God, that they may receive remission of sins, and an inheritance with those who are sanctified by faith which is in me.

For the righteousness of God by faith is therein revealed for belief; as it is written, "Now the just by faith shall live."

But after thy obdurate and impenitent heart treasurest up for thyself wrath at the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, who will recompense to every man according to his works; read more. to those who, in the patient practice of good works, seek glory and honour and immortality??ternal life.

God forbid: but let God be true, though every man were a liar; as it is written, "That thou mayest be acknowledged just in thy sayings, and overcome when thou art judged."

the righteousness of God indeed by faith in Jesus Christ unto all and upon all that believe: for there is no difference:

the righteousness of God indeed by faith in Jesus Christ unto all and upon all that believe: for there is no difference: for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

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

for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; justified freely by his grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus:

justified freely by his grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus:

Now to him that worketh, the reward is not brought to account as a favour, but as a debt.

who was delivered up for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

who was delivered up for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

who was delivered up for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

BEING justified therefore by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

BEING justified therefore by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

For even then when we were without strength, Christ died in due time for the ungodly.

For even then when we were without strength, Christ died in due time for the ungodly.

But God commendeth his own love towards us, that, though we were yet sinners, Christ died in our stead. Therefore much more, being justified already by his blood, shall we be saved by him from wrath.

And not so only, but we exult in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom already we have received reconciliation.

But not as the transgression, so also [is] the gift. For if by the transgression of one the many became dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is in that one man, Christ Jesus, hath abounded unto many.

But not as the transgression, so also [is] the gift. For if by the transgression of one the many became dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is in that one man, Christ Jesus, hath abounded unto many.

But not as the transgression, so also [is] the gift. For if by the transgression of one the many became dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is in that one man, Christ Jesus, hath abounded unto many. And the gift [is] not as for one who sinned: for the judgment indeed [came] by one to condemnation, but the free gift [leads] to justification from many offences. read more. For if by the offence of one, death reigned by that one; much more they who receive the abundance of grace, and of the gift of righteousness, shall reign in life by one, Christ Jesus. Well then, as by the offence of one, [judgment issued] against all men unto condemnation; so also by the righteousness of one, [the gift came] to all men for justification unto life.

Well then, as by the offence of one, [judgment issued] against all men unto condemnation; so also by the righteousness of one, [the gift came] to all men for justification unto life.

Well then, as by the offence of one, [judgment issued] against all men unto condemnation; so also by the righteousness of one, [the gift came] to all men for justification unto life. For as by the disobedience of one man the many were constituted sinners; so also by the obedience of one shall the many be constituted righteous.

For as by the disobedience of one man the many were constituted sinners; so also by the obedience of one shall the many be constituted righteous. But the law was introduced, that the offence might be more abundant. But where sin had abounded, there hath grace abounded more exceedingly:

But the law was introduced, that the offence might be more abundant. But where sin had abounded, there hath grace abounded more exceedingly: that as sin had reigned by death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto life eternal by Jesus Christ our Lord.

that as sin had reigned by death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto life eternal by Jesus Christ our Lord.

that as sin had reigned by death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto life eternal by Jesus Christ our Lord.

that as sin had reigned by death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto life eternal by Jesus Christ our Lord.

God forbid. We who are dead to sin, how shall we still live therein? Do ye not know, that as many as have been baptised into Christ Jesus have been baptised into his death?

What fruit therefore had ye then in those things at which ye are now confounded? for the end of those things is death.

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is life eternal in Jesus Christ our Lord.

Wherefore, my brethren, ye also have become dead to the law through the body of Christ; that ye might be for another, who was raised from the dead, that we might bring forth fruit for God.

What then shall we say? Is the law sin? God forbid. Yea, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not even known concupiscence, unless the law had said, Thou shalt not covet. But sin, seizing the opportunity by the law, wrought in me all concupiscence. For without the law sin is dead.

But sin, seizing the opportunity by the law, wrought in me all concupiscence. For without the law sin is dead. For though I lived without the law formerly; yet when the commandment came, sin revived, but I died. read more. And the commandment, which [was] for life, the same was found by me for death. For sin, seizing the occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and thereby slew me. So then the law indeed is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good. Did then that which is good become fatal to me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin by that which was good [in itself], was the cause of death to me; that sin through the commandment might become transcendantly sinful. For we know that the law is spiritual; but I am fleshly, sold under sin. For that which I am doing I approve not: for not the thing which I wish, that do I practise; but the very thing I hate, that I do. But if what I would not, that I do, I concur with the law that it is excellent. Now then no more I do this, but sin dwelling in me. For I know that there dwelleth not in me (that is, in my flesh) any good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. For I do not the good which I wish: but the evil which I would not, that I do. If then I do that which I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. I find then a law, that, when I wish to do good, evil is presented to me. For I am delighted with the law of God, as respecting the inward man: but I see another law in my members, militating against the law in my mind, and making me captive to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man, I! who shall pluck me from the body of this death?

O wretched man, I! who shall pluck me from the body of this death? I give thanks to God through Jesus Christ our Lord. Well then, I myself with my mind am servant to the law of God; but in my flesh to the law of sin.

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath liberated me from the law of sin and of death. For that which was impossible by the law, inasmuch as it was impotent through the flesh, God having sent his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in that flesh: read more. that the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled by us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

For ye have not received a spirit of bondage again unto fear; but ye have received a Spirit of adoption, by which we cry, Abba, Father.

What then shall we say to these things? If God be for us, who [shall be] against us? He who even spared not his own Son, but freely delivered him up for us all, how shall he not also, together with him, freely give us all things? read more. Who shall put in an accusation against the elect of God? God? He is their justifier. Who is he that condemneth? Christ? He died, yea, rather, also is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

What then shall we say? That the Gentiles, who pursued not after righteousness, have attained unto righteousness, even the righteousness which is by faith.

For being ignorant of the righteousness which is of God, and seeking to establish a righteousness of their own, they have not submitted to the righteousness of God.

but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews indeed an offence, and to the Greeks folly; but to those who are called, whether Jews or Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. read more. For this foolishness of God is wiser than men; and this weakness of God is stronger than men. For ye see your calling, brethren, that not many fleshly wise, not many men in power, not many men of high birth, are called: but the foolish things of this world hath God elected, that he might confound the wise; and the feeble things of the world hath God elected, that he might confound the mighty; and the ignoble things of the world, and the despicable, hath God elected, and the things that are not, to bring to nought the things which are, that no flesh should glory in his presence. But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who hath been made to us of God wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: that, as it is written, "He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord."

who also hath put his seal upon us, and given us the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

namely, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing to them their offences: and hath committed to us the word of reconciliation.

namely, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing to them their offences: and hath committed to us the word of reconciliation. Therefore we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God exhorted you by us; we entreat you for Christ's sake, be ye reconciled to God. read more. For he hath made him, who knew no sin, to be a sin offering for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in him.

For he hath made him, who knew no sin, to be a sin offering for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in him.

I am crucified with Christ, yet I live; though no more I, but Christ liveth in me: and my present life in the flesh, is a life by faith in the Son of God, who hath loved me, and delivered up himself for me.

I am crucified with Christ, yet I live; though no more I, but Christ liveth in me: and my present life in the flesh, is a life by faith in the Son of God, who hath loved me, and delivered up himself for me.

Now the law is not by faith: but "The man that doeth these things shall live by them." Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, "Cursed is every one who is hanged on a tree:"

Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, "Cursed is every one who is hanged on a tree:"

For ye are all the sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

that he might redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. But because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father!

And again, I testify to every man who is circumcised, that he is under an obligation to keep the whole law.

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but faith exerting its energy by love.

in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

In whom ye also [trusted] after ye had heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, ye have been sealed with the holy Spirit of promise,

without ceasing calling to mind your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father;

And confessedly great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, justified by the Spirit, seen of angels, preached among the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

And confessedly great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, justified by the Spirit, seen of angels, preached among the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

But we see Jesus for a little while made lower than angels, by the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour, that, by the grace of God, he might taste of death for every one.

nor by the blood of goats and of calves, but by his own blood, he entered once for all into the holies, having obtained eternal redemption.

There was a necessity therefore that the representations of the things in heaven should be purified by these; but the celestial things themselves with better sacrifices than these.

Now where there is remission of these, no more offering for sin [is needed].

What is the advantage, my brethren, if a man profess to have faith, but hath not works; can faith save him? Now if a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, read more. and should one of you say to them, Go in peace, be warm, be replenished with food: yet if ye give them not the necessaries for their body; what doth it avail? So also faith, if it hath not works, is dead itself. Perhaps a man will say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith by thy works, and I will shew thee by my works my faith. Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe and tremble. But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? Was not our father Abraham justified by works, when he offered up Isaac his son upon the altar? Thou seest that faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith consummated. And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, "Abraham believed God, and it was imputed to him for righteousness;" and he was called "the friend of God." Observe therefore that by works a man is justified, and not by faith merely. But was not Rahab the harlot in like manner justified by works, when she entertained the messengers, and sent them away by a different road? For as the body without breath is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, and first-born from the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth: to him who loved us, and washed us from our sins by his blood,

Though the nations were incensed, yet thy wrath came, and the time of the dead to be judged, and to give the reward to thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and to all who fear thy name, to the small and to the great; and to destroy those who have destroyed the earth.
