 3:3 For if some of them believed not, would their unbelief abolish the faithfulness of Aloha?

 3:3 For if some of them have not believed, have they, by their not believing, made the faith of God inefficient?

 3:7 For if the truth of Aloha is promoted by my lie unto his glory, why then am I judged as a sinner?

 3:19 ¶ BUT we know that whatever the law saith, to them who are under the law it saith: that every mouth may be shut, and all the world be guilty unto Aloha.

 3:19 Now we know, that whatever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law; that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world be guilty before God.

 3:20 Because by the works of the law no flesh is justified before him; for from the law sin is known.

 3:20 Wherefore, by the deeds of the law, no flesh is justified before him: for, by the law, sin is known.

 3:21 But now, without the law the righteousness of Aloha is revealed, and the law and the prophets (themselves) testify of it.

 3:21 But now, the righteousness of God without the law, is manifested; and the law and the prophets testify of it:

 3:22 But the righteousness of Aloha is by faith of Jeshu Meshiha, unto all and also upon all who believe in him. For there is no distinction:

 3:22 even the righteousness of God, which is by faith in Jesus Messiah, for every one, and on every one, that believeth in him: for there is no distinction;

 3:23 for all have sinned, and have failed of the glory of Aloha;

 3:24 and all are justified by grace freely, and (that) through the redemption which is in Jeshu Meshiha,

 3:24 And they are justified gratuitously, by grace, and by the redemption which is in Jesus Messiah;

 3:25 whom Aloha before ordained (to be) a propitiation through faith in his blood for our sins which from the first we had sinned,

 3:25 whom God hath preconstituted a propitiation, by faith in his blood, because of our sins, which we before committed,

 3:26 within the space which Aloha hath given to us in his patience, unto the manifestation of his righteousness which (is) in this time: that he might be just, and might justify in righteousness him who is in the faith of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha.

 3:26 in the space which God in his long suffering gave to us, for the manifestation of his righteousness at the present time; that he might be righteous, and might with righteousness justify him who is in the faith of our Lord Jesus Messiah.

 3:27 Where, then, is boasting? It is abolished. By what law? of works? No, but by the law of faith.

 3:27 Where then is glorying? It is annihilated. By what law? by that of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.

 3:28 We comprehend, therefore, that by faith man is justified, and not by the works of the law.

 3:28 We therefore conclude, that it is by faith a man is justified, and not by the works of the law.

 3:29 Is Aloha of the Jihudoyee only, and not of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also
