No Mo Nobody Dat Do Da Right Ting Everytime
9 So den, wat? You tink us Jewish peopo stay mo betta den dem? No way! Cuz I wen awready show you guys dat da bad kine stuff get power ova everybody, da Jewish peopo an da peopo dat not Jews. 10 Jalike da Bible wen say,
“No mo nobody dat do da right ting everytime.
No mo even one guy!
11 No mo nobody dat undastan,
No mo nobody dat try fo know God!
12 Nobody eva do how dey suppose to.
All togedda dey wen come poho.
No mo nobody dat do good tings,
No mo even one guy!
13 Dea mout stay jalike one open grave.
Dey bulai wit dea mout.
Da poison come from inside dea mout,
Jalike one snake.
14 Wit dea mout
Dey everytime like say stink stuffs fo hurt somebody,
Cuz az how dey stay inside.
15 Dey move fast fo kill somebody.
16 Every place dey go,
Dey like bus up everyting,
An make big trouble fo peopo.
17 Dey neva know how fo make good wit odda peopo,
An make dea hearts rest inside.
18 Dey no mo respeck fo God notting.”
19 Now, we know dat everyting Godʼs Rules say, dass fo da peopo dat get da Rules ova dem. Dass why nobody can make argue wit God. Bumbye everybody all ova da world gotta go in front God da Judge, so he can say if dey wen do da bad kine stuff, o wat. 20 Dass why no mo nobody dat can say dat dey get um right wit God, jus cuz dey wen do everyting Godʼs Rules say. Not even! Godʼs Rules ony show dat us wen do da bad kine stuff.
God Make Us Get Um Right Wit Him Wen We Trus Um
21 Stay clear now how God wen go make plan so we can get um right wit him. We can get um right wit him, but not cuz a Godʼs Rules. Godʼs Rules an da guys dat wen talk fo God long time ago, dey tell all dat inside da Bible. 22 God wen make us get um right wit him wen we trus Jesus Christ, da Spesho Guy God Wen Send. He do dat fo everybody dat trus him, no mo notting diffren.
23 Cuz everybody do bad kine stuff. Dass why nobody can come awesome by demself, da way God like make um come awesome. 24 But can get um right wit God, cuz God get good heart an like do plenny good stuff fo peopo. God cut um loose from da power da bad kine stuff get ova dem, cuz dey tight wit Jesus Christ.
25 God wen make Jesus da main guy, so he can be da sacrifice fo hemo da shame fo all da bad kine stuff everybody do, ony if dey go trus him an dey shua dat he wen go bleed an mahke fo dem. Dass how God show dat he make everyting come right: he let um go fo da bad kine stuff dey wen do befo time an hemo dea shame. 26 You know, befo time God neva push hard fo peopo fo pau do da bad kine stuff. Nowdays, fo show everybody dat he everytime do da right ting, he make everybody dat trus Jesus get um right wit him.
27 So, wat? How come you tink you can talk big now? No can! Wot?! You tell how you get one Rule dat say, you get um right wit God cuz you wen do good kine stuffs? Eh, not even! We can ony tell bout dat Rule dat say we get um right wit God cuz we trus um.
28 So dis wat we figga: Anybody can get um right wit God wen dey trus him, not wen dey ony do da stuff Godʼs Rules say.
29 Kay den. God, he ony fo da Jewish peopo? You tink he not God fo da peopo dat not Jews? Fo shua, he God fo dem too!
30 Cuz ony get one God. Da guys dat get da cut skin mark fo show dey Jewish kine, God make um so dey get um right wit him cuz dey trus him. An da peopo dat not Jews an no mo da mark on top dem, he make dem so dey get um right wit him cuz dey trus him too.
31 You tink dat wen we trus God, dat mean we make Godʼs Rules poho? No way! We make da Rules mo solid.
