Romans 3:5


Romans 3:4 Romans 3:5 (KJV) Romans 3:6
God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? [Is] God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)
God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?
