Romans 3:3-8
3WhatG5101 thenG1063? IfG1487 1someG5100 2did not believeG569, their 3unbeliefG570 will not nullifyG2673 the faithfulnessG4102 of GodG2316, will it? 44May it neverG3361 be! RatherG1161, let GodG2316 be foundG1096 trueG227, thoughG1161 everyG3956 manG444 be found 5a liarG5583, as it is writtenG1125, “6That You may be justifiedG1344 in Your wordsG3056, And prevailG3528 whenG1722 You 7are judgedG2919.” 5But ifG1487 our unrighteousnessG93 89demonstratesG4921 the righteousnessG1343 of GodG2316, 10whatG5101 shall we sayG3004? The GodG2316 who inflictsG2018 wrathG3709 is not unrighteousG94, is He? (11I am speakingG3004 in humanG444 termsG2596.) 612May it neverG3361 be! For otherwiseG1893, howG4459 will 13GodG2316 judgeG2919 the worldG2889? 7But ifG1487 throughG1722 my lieG5582 14the truthG225 of GodG2316 aboundedG4052 to His gloryG1391, 15whyG5101 am I alsoG2532 stillG2089 being judgedG2919 as a sinnerG268? 8And why not say (as we are slanderouslyG987 reportedG987 and as someG5100 claimG5346 that we sayG3004), “16Let us doG4160 evilG2556 that goodG18 may comeG2064”? 17Their condemnationG2917 is justG1738.
