25. whom God set forth to be a propitiation, through faith, by his blood, to shew his righteousness, because of the passing over of the sins done aforetime, in the forbearance of God;
26. for the shewing, I say, of his righteousness at this present season: that he might himself be just, and the justifier of him that hath faith in Jesus.
27. Where then is the glorying? It is excluded. By what manner of law? of works? Nay: but by a law of faith.
28. We reckon therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.
