Romans 3:3-5
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
God Will Be Faithful To His Promises To The Jews Even If Some Reject Him
3 What indeed if some[a] were faithless[b]? Their faithlessness[c] will not nullify the faithfulness of God, will it? 4 May it never be! But let God be [seen to be] true and every person a liar, just as it has been written [in Ps 51:4]: “So that You might be declared-righteous[d] in Your words and prevail in Your being judged[e]”.
But God Is Not Unrighteous To Inflict Wrath On Jews Who Sin
5 But if our[f] unrighteousness demonstrates[g] the righteousness of God, what shall we say? God, the One inflicting the wrath, is not unrighteous, is He? (I am speaking in accordance with human thinking[h]).
