Romans 3:3-5

3What then? If 1some 2did not believe, their 3unbelief will not nullify the faithfulness of God, will it? 445Far from it! Rather, God must prove to be true, though every person be found 6a liar, as it is written: “7So that You are justified in Your words, And prevail 8when You are judged.” 5But if our unrighteousness 910demonstrates the righteousness of God, 11what shall we say? The God who inflicts wrath is not unrighteous, is He? (12I am speaking from a human viewpoint.)
