Romans 3:9-19

9What then? Are we better than they? No, not at all. For we have already made the case that all—both Jewish and Greek people—are under sin.

10As it is written, “There is no one righteous—no, not one.

11There is no one who understands, no one who seeks after God.

12All have turned aside; together they have become worthless. There is no one who does good—no, not even one!

13Their throat is an open grave; with their tongues they keep deceiving. The poison of vipers is under their lips.

14Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.

15Their feet are swift to shed blood.

16Ruin and misery are in their paths,

17and the way of shalom they have not known.

18There is no fear of God before their eyes.”

19Now we know that whatever the Torah says, it says to those within the Torah, so that every mouth may be shut and the whole world may become accountable to God.
