3 Romans 羅馬書 3:19-20, 23 19我們曉得律法上的話都是對律法以下之人說的，好塞住各人的口，叫普世的人都伏在　神審判之下。20 所以凡有血氣的，沒有一個因行律法能在　神面前稱義，因為律法本是叫人知罪 …  23 因為世人都犯了罪，虧缺了　神的榮耀； (和合本) 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 God’s sight by the works of the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of our sin… 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.  (NIV)

17 Romans 羅馬書 3:24-26 24如今卻蒙　神的恩典，因基督耶穌的救贖，就白白地稱義。 25  神設立耶穌作挽回祭，是憑著耶穌的血，藉著人的信，要顯明　神的義；因為他用忍耐的心寬容人先時所犯的罪， 26 好在今時顯明他的義，使人知道他自己為義，也稱信耶穌的人為義。  24 and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 25 God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished—26 he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.

25 Romans 羅馬書 3:21-23 21 但如今，　神的義在律法以外已經顯明出來，有律法和先知為證： 22就是　神的義，因信耶穌基督加給一切相信的人，並沒有分別。  23 因為世人都犯了罪，虧缺了　神的榮耀； 21 But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. 22 This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile,  23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

30 Romans 羅馬書 3:27-28 27 既是這樣，哪裡能誇口呢？沒有可誇的了。用何法沒有的呢？是用立功之法嗎？不是，乃用信主之法。 28 所以(有古卷:因為)我們看定了：人稱義是因著信，不在乎遵行律法。 27 Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded. Because of what law? The law that requires works? No, because of the law that requires faith. 28 For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.  Pix taken from: christiandevotionsongrace
