21

But now apart from the law a righteousness of God hath been manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets, being witnessed by the law and the prophets

22

even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ unto all them that believe for there is no distinction

23

for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God

24

being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

25

whom God set forth [to be] a propitiation, through faith, in his blood, to show his righteousness because of the passing over of the sins done aforetime, in the forbearance of God

26

for the showing, [I say], of his righteousness at this present season: that he might himself be just, and the justifier of him that hath faith in Jesus.

27

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

28

We reckon therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.

29

Or is God [the God] of Jews only? is he not [the God] of Gentiles also? Yea, of Gentiles also:

30

if so be that God is one, and he shall justify the circumcision by faith, and the uncircumcision through faith.

31

Do we then make the law of none effect through faith? God forbid: nay, we establish the law.
