Romans 3:21–31

²¹But now without law righteousness of God is manifested, borne witness to by the law and the prophets; ²²righteousness of God by faith of Jesus Christ towards all, and upon all those who believe: for there is no difference; ²³for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ²⁴being justified freely by his grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus; ²⁵whom God has set forth a mercy-seat, through faith in his blood, for the shewing forth of his righteousness, in respect of the passing by the sins that had taken place before, through the forbearance of God; ²⁶for the shewing forth of his righteousness in the present time, so that he should be just, and justify him that is of the faith of Jesus. ²⁷Where then is boasting? It has been excluded. By what law? of works? Nay, but by law of faith; ²⁸for we reckon that a man is justified by faith, without works of law. ²⁹Is God the God of Jews only? is he not of the nations also? Yea, of nations also: ³⁰since indeed it is one God who shall justify the circumcision on the principle of faith, and uncircumcision by faith. ³¹Do we then make void law by faith? Far be the thought: no, but we establish law.
