Romans 3:9-20

RKJNT(i) 9 What then? are we better than they? No, by no means: for we have already charged that both Jews and Greeks are all under sin; 10 As it is written, There is no one righteous, no, not one: 11 There is no one who understands, there is no one who seeks after God. 12 They have all left the way, together they have become unprofitable; there is no one who does good, no, not one. 13 Their throats are an open grave; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: 14 Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: 15 Their feet are swift to shed blood: 16 Destruction and misery are in their ways: 17 And the way of peace have they not known: 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: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may be held accountable to God. 20 Therefore, by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified in his sight: for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.
