Romans 3:27-31

The Bible in Basic English BBE

27 What reason, then, is there for pride? It is shut out. By what sort of law? of works? No, but by a law of faith.

28 For this reason, then, a man may get righteousness by faith without the works of the law.

29 Or is God the God of Jews only? is he not in the same way the God of Gentiles? Yes, of Gentiles:

30 If God is one; and he will give righteousness because of faith to those who have circumcision, and through faith to those who have not circumcision.

31 Do we, then, through faith make the law of no effect? in no way: but we make it clear that the law is important.

New International Version NIV

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 a person 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 too? Yes, of Gentiles too,

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, nullify the law by this faith? Not at all! Rather, we uphold the law.
