What advantage then hath the Jew? or what is the profit of circumcision?

For what if some were without faith? shall their want of faith make of none effect the faithfulness of God?

But if our righteousness commendeth the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who visiteth with wrath? (I speak after the manner of men.)

What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we before laid to the charge both of Jews and Greeks, that they are all under sin;

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:

Where then is the glorying? It is excluded. By what manner of law? of works? Nay: but by a law of faith.

What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather, hath found according to the flesh?

For what saith the scripture? And Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto him for righteousness.

and being fully assured that what he had promised, he was able also to perform.

What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?

What then? shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? God forbid.

What fruit then had ye at that time in the things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.

What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Howbeit, I had not known sin, except through the law: for I had not known coveting, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet:

For that which I do I know not: for not what I would, that do I practise; but what I hate, that I do.

But if what I would not, that I do, I consent unto the law that it is good.

But if what I would not, that I do, it is no more I that do it, but sin which dwelleth in me.

For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:

and he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us?

What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.

What if God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering vessels of wrath fitted unto destruction:

What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, who followed not after righteousness, attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith:

But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach:

God did not cast off his people which he foreknew. Or know ye not what the scripture saith of Elijah? how he pleadeth with God against Israel:

But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have left for myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal.

What then? that which Israel seeketh for, that he obtained not; but the election obtained it, and the rest were hardened:

For if the casting away of them is the reconciling of the world, what'shall the receiving of them be , but life from the dead?

And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, and ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
