It may not be: and let God be true, and every man a liar; as has been written, That thou mightest be justified in thy words, and mightest conquer in thy being judged. And if our injustice shall recommend the justice of God, what shall we say God not unjust bringing in anger? (I speak as man) It may not be: for how shall God judge the world For if the truth of God in my lying abounded to his glory; why yet am I judged as sinful? And not, (as we are defamed, and some have declared us to say,) That we should do evil things, that good things might come: whose judgment is just. What advantage therefore have we? Not in any way: for we before accused both Jews and Greeks, all to be under sin. As has been written, That there is no just one, not one: There is none understanding, there is none seeking God.

Their throat an opened tomb; with their tongues have they used deceit; the poison of asps under their lips: Whose mouth is full of cursing and harshness: Their feet active to pour out blood: Bruising and grievous toil in their ways: And the way of peace they knew not: The fear of God is not before their eyes. And we know that whatever says the law, it speaks to them in the law: that every mouth be shut, and all the world be culpable to God. Therefore from the works of the law shall no flesh be justified before him: for by the law the knowledge of sin. But now without law the justice of God has been made apparent, being testified by the law and by the prophets; And the justice of God by faith of Jesus Christ to all and upon all believing: for there is no distinction: For all have sinned, and failed of the glory of God;

What then shall we say Abraham our father to have found, according to the flesh? For if Abraham was justified by works, he has boasting; but not toward God. For what says the writing? And Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him for justice. read more.
And to him working, the reward is not reckoned according to favor, but according to debt. And to him not working, and believing upon him justifying the impious, his faith is reckoned for justice. As also David speaks the happiness of the man, to whom God reckons justice without works, Happy they whose iniquities were remitted, and whose sins were covered. A happy man to whom the Lord should not reckon sin. This happiness then upon circumcision, or upon uncircumcision? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for justice. How then was it reckoned? to him being in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision. And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the justice of the faith which in uncircumcision: for him to be father of all believing through uncircumcision; for justice also to be reckoned to them: And father of circumcision to them not of circumcision only, but also to them, walking in order in the tracks of the uncircumcision, of the faith of our father Abraham. For not by the law, the promise to Abraham, or to his seed, for him to be heir of the world, but by the justice of faith. For if they of the law, heirs, faith was made void, and the promise left inactive: For the law works wrath: for where is no law, no transgression. Therefore of faith, that according to grace; the promise to be firm to all the seed; not to that of the law only, but also to that of the faith of Abraham; who is father of us all,

And it was not written for him alone, that it was reckoned to him; But also for us, to whom it is about to be reckoned, to them believing upon him having raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; Who was delivered up for our faults, and raised up for our justification.
