Verse
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
KJV
King James Version
What ,
then ,
`is'
the
superiority
of
the Jew? or what the
profit of the
circumcision?
What advantage
then hath
the Jew? or what profit is
there
of circumcision?
much in
every way ;
for
first,
indeed
, that they
were intrusted
with
the oracles of God ;
Much every way :
chiefly
, because
that unto
them
were committed
the oracles of God .
for what ,
if certain
were
faithless
? shall their faithlessness
the faithfulness
of god make
useless
?
For what if some
did
not
believe
? shall their unbelief
make
the faith
of God without
effect
?
let
it
not
be!
and
let God become
true, and
every man false,
according
as it hath
been
written, `
That Thou mayest
be declared
righteous
in Thy words
, and mayest
overcome in
Thy
being
judged. '
God
forbid:
yea,
let God be
true, but
every man a
liar;
as it is
written, That thou mightest
be justified
in thy sayings
, and mightest
overcome when
thou
art
judged.
And,
if our unrighteousness God's
righteousness doth
establish
, what shall we say? is God unrighteous who is
inflicting
the
wrath
? ( after
the
manner
of
a
man
I speak)
But
if our unrighteousness commend
the
righteousness of
God
, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh
vengeance
? (I speak as
a
man
)
let
it
not
be!
since
how shall God judge the world?
God
forbid:
for
then
how shall God judge the world?
for if the truth of God in
my
falsehood
did
more abound
to
His glory ,
why yet am I also as a sinner judged
?
For if the truth of God hath
more abounded
through
my
lie
unto
his glory ;
why yet am I also judged
as a sinner?
and not, as we are
evil
spoken
of
, and as certain
affirm us
to
say
--
`
We may
do the
evil things
, that the
good ones
may come? '
whose judgment
is righteous
.
And not rather
, (
as we be
slanderously
reported
, and as some
affirm that
we say,)
Let
us
do evil, that good may come? whose damnation
is just
.
What ,
then? are we better? not
at
all!
for we did
before charge
both Jews and Greeks
with
being
all under sin ,
What then? are we better than
they
? No,
in
no
wise:
for we have
before proved
both Jews and Gentiles,
that
they
are
all under sin ;
according
as it hath
been
written --
`
There is none righteous, not even
one ;
As it is
written ,
There is none righteous, no,
not one :
There is none who
is
understanding
, there is none who
is
seeking
after God.
There is none that
understandeth
, there is none that
seeketh
after God.
All did
go
out of the way, together
they became
unprofitable ,
there is none doing
good, there
is
not even
one.
They
are
all gone
out of the way, they are
together
become
unprofitable ;
there is none that
doeth
good, no,
not one.
A
sepulchre
opened
`is'
their throat; with their tongues they used deceit; poison of asps `
is '
under their lips .
Their throat is
an
open
sepulchre
; with their tongues they have
used deceit; the
poison of asps is under their lips :
Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness .
Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness :
Swift
`are'
their feet to shed blood .
Their feet are
swift
to shed blood :
Ruin
and misery `
are '
in their ways .
Destruction
and misery are in their ways :
And a
way of peace they did
not know.
And the
way of peace have
they not known:
There is no fear of God before their eyes. '
There is no fear of God before their eyes.
And
we have
known
that as
many
things as
the law saith, to those
in
the law it
doth
speak,
that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may come
under
judgment
to
God ;
Now
we know
that what
things soever
the law saith, it
saith
to them
who
are
under
the law :
that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become
guilty
before
God .
wherefore
by works
of law shall no flesh be declared
righteous
before
Him,
for through
law is a
knowledge of sin.
Therefore
by the
deeds
of the
law there
shall no flesh be justified
in
his
sight:
for by
the
law is the
knowledge of sin.
And
now apart
from
law
hath
the righteousness of God been
manifested, testified
to
by the law and the prophets ,
But
now the righteousness of God without
the
law
is
manifested, being
witnessed
by the law and the prophets ;
and
the righteousness of God `
is '
through
the
faith of Jesus Christ to
all ,
and upon all those
believing,
--
for there is no difference ,
Even
the righteousness of God which
is by
faith of Jesus Christ unto
all and upon all them
that
believe:
for there is no difference :
for all did
sin
, and are
come short of the glory of God --
For all have
sinned
, and come short of the glory of God ;
being declared
righteous
freely by His grace through the redemption that `
is '
in Christ Jesus ,
Being justified
freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus :
whom God did
set forth a mercy
seat,
through the
faith in his blood, for
the
shewing
forth
of
His righteousness ,
because
of
the passing
over
of the
bygone
sins in
the forbearance of God --
Whom God hath
set forth to
be
a propitiation
through faith in his blood, to
declare
his righteousness for
the remission
of sins that
are
past,
through
the forbearance of God ;
for
the
shewing
forth
of
His
righteousness
in
the
present
time
, for
His being
righteous
, and declaring
him
righteous
who
`is'
of
the faith
of Jesus.
To
declare
, I
say,
at
this
time
his righteousness:
that
he
might
be
just
, and the justifier
of him
which
believeth
in
Jesus.
Where then
`
is '
the
boasting? it was
excluded ;
by what law? of works? no,
but by a
law of faith :
Where is boasting then
? It is
excluded .
By what law? of works? Nay:
but by the
law of faith .
therefore do
we reckon
a man to
be
declared
righteous
by faith ,
apart
from
works
of law.
Therefore we conclude
that
a man is
justified
by faith without
the
deeds
of the
law.
The God of Jews only `
is He ',
and
not also of nations
?
Is
he
the God of the
Jews only ?
is he not also of the
Gentiles
? Yes,
of
the
Gentiles
also:
yes,
also
of
nations;
since
one
`
is '
God who
shall declare
righteous
the circumcision by faith, and the
uncircumcision through the
faith.
Seeing
it
is one
God ,
which
shall justify
the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.
Law
then
do we make useless
through
the faith? let
it
not
be!
yea, we do
establish law.
Do we then
make void
the law
through
faith? God
forbid:
yea, we establish the
law.
