Romans 3:21-26
English Standard Version
The Righteousness of God Through Faith
21 But now (A)the righteousness of God (B)has been manifested apart from the law, although (C)the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it— 22 the righteousness of God (D)through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. (E)For there is no distinction: 23 for (F)all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 (G)and are justified (H)by his grace as a gift, (I)through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 25 whom God (J)put forward as (K)a propitiation (L)by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God's righteousness, because in (M)his divine forbearance he had passed over (N)former sins. 26 It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

English Standard Version
8 For (A)by grace you have been saved (B)through faith. And this is (C)not your own doing; (D)it is the gift of God, 9 (E)not a result of works, (F)so that no one may boast. 10 For (G)we are his workmanship, (H)created in Christ Jesus (I)for good works, (J)which God prepared beforehand, (K)that we should walk in them.
