Romans 3:3-5
Easy-to-Read Version
3 It is true that some Jews were not faithful to God. But will that stop God from doing what he promised? 4 No, even if everyone else is a liar, God will always do what he says. As the Scriptures say about him,
“You will be proved right in what you say,
and you will win when people accuse you.” (A)
5 When we do wrong, that shows more clearly that God is right. So can we say that God does wrong when he punishes us? (That’s the way some people think.)

New International Version
3 What if some were unfaithful?(A) Will their unfaithfulness nullify God’s faithfulness?(B) 4 Not at all! Let God be true,(C) and every human being a liar.(D) As it is written:
5 But if our unrighteousness brings out God’s righteousness more clearly,(F) what shall we say? That God is unjust in bringing his wrath on us? (I am using a human argument.)(G)
