Romans 3

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 quid ergo amplius est Iudaeo aut quae utilitas circumcisionis

2 multum per omnem modum primum quidem quia credita sunt illis eloquia Dei

3 quid enim si quidam illorum non crediderunt numquid incredulitas illorum fidem Dei evacuabit absit

4 est autem Deus verax omnis autem homo mendax sicut scriptum est ut iustificeris in sermonibus tuis et vincas cum iudicaris

5 si autem iniquitas nostra iustitiam Dei commendat quid dicemus numquid iniquus Deus qui infert iram secundum hominem dico

6 absit alioquin quomodo iudicabit Deus mundum

7 si enim veritas Dei in meo mendacio abundavit in gloriam ipsius quid adhuc et ego tamquam peccator iudicor

8 et non sicut blasphemamur et sicut aiunt nos quidam dicere faciamus mala ut veniant bona quorum damnatio iusta est

9 quid igitur praecellimus eos nequaquam causati enim sumus Iudaeos et Graecos omnes sub peccato esse

10 sicut scriptum est quia non est iustus quisquam

11 non est intellegens non est requirens Deum

12 omnes declinaverunt simul inutiles facti sunt non est qui faciat bonum non est usque ad unum

13 sepulchrum patens est guttur eorum linguis suis dolose agebant venenum aspidum sub labiis eorum

14 quorum os maledictione et amaritudine plenum est

15 veloces pedes eorum ad effundendum sanguinem

16 contritio et infelicitas in viis eorum

17 et viam pacis non cognoverunt

18 non est timor Dei ante oculos eorum

19 scimus autem quoniam quaecumque lex loquitur his qui in lege sunt loquitur ut omne os obstruatur et subditus fiat omnis mundus Deo

20 quia ex operibus legis non iustificabitur omnis caro coram illo per legem enim cognitio peccati

21 nunc autem sine lege iustitia Dei manifestata est testificata a lege et prophetis

22 iustitia autem Dei per fidem Iesu Christi super omnes qui credunt non enim est distinctio

23 omnes enim peccaverunt et egent gloriam Dei

24 iustificati gratis per gratiam ipsius per redemptionem quae est in Christo Iesu

25 quem proposuit Deus propitiationem per fidem in sanguine ipsius ad ostensionem iustitiae suae propter remissionem praecedentium delictorum

26 in sustentatione Dei ad ostensionem iustitiae eius in hoc tempore ut sit ipse iustus et iustificans eum qui ex fide est Iesu

27 ubi est ergo gloriatio exclusa est per quam legem factorum non sed per legem fidei

28 arbitramur enim iustificari hominem per fidem sine operibus legis

29 an Iudaeorum Deus tantum nonne et gentium immo et gentium

30 quoniam quidem unus Deus qui iustificabit circumcisionem ex fide et praeputium per fidem

31 legem ergo destruimus per fidem absit sed legem statuimus

Good News Translation GNT

1 Do the Jews then have any advantage over the Gentiles? Or is there any value in being circumcised?

2 Much, indeed, in every way! In the first place, God trusted his message to the Jews.

3 But what if some of them were not faithful? Does this mean that God will not be faithful?

4 Certainly not! God must be true, even though all human beings are liars. As the scripture says, "You must be shown to be right when you speak; you must win your case when you are being tried."

5 But what if our doing wrong serves to show up more clearly God's doing right? Can we say that God does wrong when he punishes us? (This would be the natural question to ask.)

6 By no means! If God is not just, how can he judge the world?

7 But what if my untruth serves God's glory by making his truth stand out more clearly? Why should I still be condemned as a sinner?

8 Why not say, then, "Let us do evil so that good may come"? Some people, indeed, have insulted me by accusing me of saying this very thing! They will be condemned, as they should be.

9 Well then, are we Jews in any better condition than the Gentiles? Not at all! I have already shown that Jews and Gentiles alike are all under the power of sin.

10 As the Scriptures say: "There is no one who is righteous,

11 no one who is wise or who worships God.

12 All have turned away from God; they have all gone wrong; no one does what is right, not even one.

13 Their words are full of deadly deceit; wicked lies roll off their tongues, and dangerous threats, like snake's poison, from their lips;

14 their speech is filled with bitter curses.

15 They are quick to hurt and kill;

16 they leave ruin and destruction wherever they go.

17 They have not known the path of peace,

18 nor have they learned reverence for God."

19 Now we know that everything in the Law applies to those who live under the Law, in order to stop all human excuses and bring the whole world under God's judgment.

20 For no one is put right in God's sight by doing what the Law requires; what the Law does is to make us know that we have sinned.

21 But now God's way of putting people right with himself has been revealed. It has nothing to do with law, even though the Law of Moses and the prophets gave their witness to it.

22 God puts people right through their faith in Jesus Christ. God does this to all who believe in Christ, because there is no difference at all:

23 everyone has sinned and is far away from God's saving presence.

24 But by the free gift of God's grace all are put right with him through Christ Jesus, who sets them free.

25 God offered him, so that by his blood he should become the means by which people's sins are forgiven through their faith in him. God did this in order to demonstrate that he is righteous. In the past he was patient and overlooked people's sins; but in the present time he deals with their sins, in order to demonstrate his righteousness. In this way God shows that he himself is righteous and that he puts right everyone who believes in Jesus.

27 What, then, can we boast about? Nothing! And what is the reason for this? Is it that we obey the Law? No, but that we believe.

28 For we conclude that a person is put right with God only through faith, and not by doing what the Law commands.

29 Or is God the God of the Jews only? Is he not the God of the Gentiles also? Of course he is.

30 God is one, and he will put the Jews right with himself on the basis of their faith, and will put the Gentiles right through their faith.

31 Does this mean that by this faith we do away with the Law? No, not at all; instead, we uphold the Law.
