Romans 3:9-20
There Is No One Righteous
9 What then? are we better [than they]? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;
9:
10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
10:
11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
11:
12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
12:
13 Their throat [is] an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps [is] under their lips:
13:
14 Whose mouth [is] full of cursing and bitterness:
14:
15 Their feet [are] swift to shed blood:
15:
16 Destruction and misery [are] in their ways:
16:
17 And the way of peace have they not known:
17:
18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
18:
19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
19:
20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law [is] the knowledge of sin.
20:
