Romans 3:5-8

New American Standard Bible

⁵ But if our unrighteousness ^[a](A)demonstrates the righteousness of God, ^(B)what shall we say? The God who inflicts wrath is not unrighteous, is He? (^(C)I am speaking from a human viewpoint.) ^6 (D)Far from it! For otherwise, how will ^(E)God judge the world? ⁷ But if through my lie ^(F)the truth of God abounded to His glory, ^(G)why am I also still being judged as a sinner? ⁸ And why not say (just as we are slanderously reported and as some claim that we say), “^(H)Let’s do evil that good may come of it”? ^[b]Their condemnation is deserved.
