Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law [is] the knowledge of sin (3:20) But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; (3:21) Even the righteousness of God [which is] by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: (3:22) For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; (3:23) Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: (3:24) Whom God hath set forth [to be] a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; (3:25) To declare, [I say], at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus (3:26) Where [is] boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith (3:27) Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law (3:28) [Is he] the God of the Jews only? [is he] not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also: (3:29) Seeing [it is] one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith (3:30) Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law
(3:31)
