What shall we conclude then?
Are
we any better?
Not
at all!
We
have already made the charge
THAT
JEWS AND GENTILES ALIKE
AR
ALL UNDER SIN.
10
As it is written:
'There
is No one Righteous,
NOT
EVEN ONE;
11
There is No one who understands,
No
one who seeks God.
12
ALL have turned away,
THEY
HAVE TOGETHER BECOME WORTHLESS;
Thee
is No one who does Good,
NOT
EVEN ONE.'
13
Their throats are Open Graves;
Their
tongues practice Deceit.
14
Their mouths are full of Cursing and Bitterness.'
15
Their feet are swift to Shed Blood;
16
Ruin and Misery mark their ways,
17
And the way of Peace they do not know.'
18
'THERE IS NO FEAR OF GOD BEFORE THEIR EYES.'
19
Now we know that whatever the Law says,
It
says to those who are Under the Law,
SO
THAT EVERY MOUTH MAY BE SILENCED
AND
THE WHOLE WORLD HELD ACCOUNTABLE TO GOD.
20
Therefore No one will be declared Righteous in His sight
By
Observing the Law;
RATHER,
THROUGH THE LAW
WE
BECOME CONSCIOUS OF SIN.
(Romans
3:9-20)
