Romans 3:5-8

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

But God Is Not Unrighteous To Inflict Wrath On Jews Who Sin

⁵ But if our^[a] unrighteousness demonstrates^[b] the righteousness of God, what shall we say? God, the One inflicting the wrath, is not unrighteous, is He? (I am speaking in accordance with human thinking^[c]). ⁶ May it never be! Otherwise how will God judge the world?

God Holds Jews Accountable For Their Sin Too

⁷ But if the truth of God abounded in my lie^[d] to His glory, why am I also still being judged as a sinner? ⁸ Indeed, why not say “Let us do evil things that good things may come”, as we are blasphemed, and as some affirm us to say— whose condemnation is just^[e]!
