Romans 3:27-31
English Standard Version
27 (A)Then what becomes of our boasting? It is excluded. By what kind of law? By a law of works? No, but by the law of faith. 28 For we hold that one is justified by faith (B)apart from works of the law. 29 Or (C)is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also, 30 since (D)God is one—who will justify the circumcised by faith and (E)the uncircumcised through faith. 31 Do we then overthrow the law by this faith? By no means! On the contrary, we uphold the law.

Romans 3:27-31
Lexham English Bible
27 Therefore, where is boasting? It has been excluded. By what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law[a] of faith. 28 For we consider a person to be justified by faith apart from the works of the law. 29 Or is God the God of the Jews only? Is he not also the God of the Gentiles? Yes, also of the Gentiles, 30 since God is one, who will justify those who are circumcised[b] by faith and those who are uncircumcised[c] through faith. 31 Therefore, do we nullify the law through faith? May it never be! But we uphold the law.
