New Testament

Romans 3:25-31 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

25. whom God made publicly available as the mercy seat through faith in his blood, for a demonstration of his righteousness, because of the passing over of previously committed sins,

26. in the forbearance of God, for the demonstration of his righteousness in the present time, so that he should be just and the one who justifies the person by faith in Jesus.

27. Therefore, where is boasting? It has been excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith.

28. For we consider a person to be justified by faith apart from the works of the law.

29. Or is God the God of the Jews only? Is he not also the God of the Gentiles? Yes, also of the Gentiles,

30. since God is one, who will justify those who are circumcised by faith and those who are uncircumcised through faith.

31. Therefore, do we nullify the law through faith? May it never be! But we uphold the law.
