A 19-20 Justification not by law
- a 19a Now we know that what things soever the law saith,
- b 19b it saith to them who are under the law:
- c 19c that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
- b' 20a Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight:
- a' 20b for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
- B 21-22a But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; Even the righteousness of God
  - C 22b which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
    - D 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
    - D' 24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
  - C' 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
- B' 25b-26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
A' 27-31 Justification through faith for Jew and Gentile
- a 27a Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
- b 27b-28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
- c 29 Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:
- b' 30 Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.
- a' 31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
