'Righteous' in the Bible

having known also that a man is not declared righteous by works of law, if not through the faith of Jesus Christ, also we in Christ Jesus did believe, that we might be declared righteous by the faith of Christ, and not by works of law, wherefore declared righteous by works of law shall be no flesh.'

And if, seeking to be declared righteous in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, is then Christ a ministrant of sin? let it not be!

and the Writing having foreseen that by faith God doth declare righteous the nations did proclaim before the good news to Abraham --

and that in law no one is declared righteous with God, is evident, because 'The righteous by faith shall live;'

so that the law became our child-conductor -- to Christ, that by faith we may be declared righteous,

ye were freed from the Christ, ye who in law are declared righteous; from the grace ye fell away;
