Weymouth New Testament WNT
New International Version NIV
27 Where then is there room for your boasting? It is for ever shut out. On what principle? On the ground of merit? No, but on the ground of faith.
27
Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded. Because of what law? The law that requires works? No, because of the law that requires faith.
28 For we maintain that it is as the result of faith that a man is held to be righteous, apart from actions done in obedience to Law.
28
For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.
29 Is God simply the God of the Jews, and not of the Gentiles also? He is certainly the God of the Gentiles also,
29
Or is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles too? Yes, of Gentiles too,
30 unless you can deny that it is one and the same God who will pronounce the circumcised to be acquitted on the ground of faith, and the uncircumcised to be acquitted through the same faith.
30
since there is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith.
31 Do we then by means of this faith abolish the Law? No, indeed; we give the Law a firmer footing.
31
Do we, then, nullify the law by this faith? Not at all! Rather, we uphold the law.
