Romans 3:9-20

Moffatt(i) 9 Well now, are we Jews in a better position? Not at all. I have already charged all, Jews as well as Greeks, with being under sin — 10 as it is written, None is righteous, no, not one; 11 no one understands, no one seeks for God. 12 All have swerved, one and all have gone wrong, no one does good, not a single one. 13 Their throat is an open grave, they are treacherous with their tongues, the venom of an asp lies under their lips. 14 Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness, 15 their feet are swift for bloodshed, 16 their ways bring destruction and calamity, 17 they know nothing of the way of peace; 18 there is no reverence for God before their eyes. 19 Whatever the Law says, we know, it says to those who are inside the Law, that every mouth may be shut and all the world made answerable to God; 20 for no person will be acquitted in his sight on the score of obedience to law. What the Law imparts is the consciousness of sin.
