Boasting Excluded
27 Where, then, is boasting?(A) It is excluded. By what kind of law?[a](B) By one of works? No, on the contrary, by a law[b] of faith. 28 For we conclude that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.(C) 29 Or is God the God of Jews only?(D) Is he not the God of Gentiles too? Yes, of Gentiles too, 30 since there is one God(E) who will justify the circumcised by faith(F) and the uncircumcised through faith. 31 Do we then nullify the law through faith? Absolutely not!(G) On the contrary, we uphold the law.(H)

Romans 3:27-31
International Standard Version
27 What, then, is there to boast about? That has been eliminated. On what principle? On that of actions? No, but on the principle of faith. 28 For[a] we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the actions prescribed by the Law. 29 Is God the God of the Jews only? Is he not the God of the gentiles, too? Yes, of the gentiles, too, 30 since there is only one God who will justify the circumcised on the basis of faith and the uncircumcised by that same faith. 31 Do we, then, abolish the Law by this faith? Of course not! Instead, we uphold the Law.
