Romans 3:27-31
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
27 Then what becomes of boasting? It is excluded. Through what kind of law? That of works? No, rather through the law of faith.(A) 28 For we hold that a person is justified by faith apart from works prescribed by the law.(B) 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 faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith.(C) 31 Do we then overthrow the law through this faith? By no means! On the contrary, we uphold the law.

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.
