Romans 3:27-31
New American Standard Bible
27 Where then is (A)boasting? It has been excluded. By (B)what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith. 28 [a]For (C)we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from works [b]of the Law. 29 Or (D)is God the God of Jews only? Is He not the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also, 30 since indeed (E)God (F)who will justify the [c]circumcised [d]by faith and the [e]uncircumcised through faith (G)is one.
31 Do we then nullify [f]the Law through faith? (H)Far from it! On the contrary, we (I)establish the Law.

Revised Standard Version
27 Then what becomes of our boasting? It is excluded. On what principle? On the principle of works? No, but on the principle of faith. 28 For we hold that a man is justified by faith apart from works of law. 29 Or is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also, 30 since God is one; and he will justify the circumcised on the ground of their faith and the uncircumcised through their faith. 31 Do we then overthrow the law by this faith? By no means! On the contrary, we uphold the law.
