罗3:1 这样说来,犹太人有什么长处,割礼有什么益处呢?
罗3:1 What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?
罗3:2 凡事大有好处,第一是 神的圣言交托他们。
罗3:2 Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.
罗3:3 即便有不信的,这有何妨呢?难道他们的不信,就废掉 神的信吗?
罗3:3 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?
罗3:4 断乎不能!不如说, 神是真实的,人都是虚谎的。如经上所记:“你责备人的时候,显为公义;被人议论的时候,可以得胜。”
罗3:4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
罗3:5 我且照着人的常话说,我们的不义若显出 神的义来,我们可以怎么说呢? 神降怒,是他不义吗?
罗3:5 But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)
罗3:6 断乎不是!若是这样, 神怎能审判世界呢?
罗3:6 God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?
罗3:7 若 神的真实,因我的虚谎越发显出他的荣耀,为什么我还受审判,好像罪人呢?
罗3:7 For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?
罗3:8 为什么不说,我们可以作恶以成善呢?这是毁谤我们的人说我们有这话。这等人定罪是该当的。
罗3:8 And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.
罗3:9 这却怎么样呢?我们比他们强吗?决不是的!因我们已经证明:犹太人和希利尼人都在罪恶之下。
罗3:9 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;
罗3:10 就如经上所记:“没有义人,连一个也没有!
罗3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
罗3:11 没有明白的,没有寻求 神的;
罗3:11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
罗3:12 都是偏离正路,一同变为无用。没有行善的,连一个也没有!”
罗3:12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
罗3:13 “他们的喉咙是敞开的坟墓;他们用舌头弄诡诈。”“嘴唇里有虺蛇的毒气。”
罗3:13 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:
罗3:14 “满口是咒骂苦毒。”
罗3:14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
罗3:15 “杀人流血,他们的脚飞跑,
罗3:15 Their feet are swift to shed blood:
罗3:16 所经过的路,便行残害暴虐的事;
罗3:16 Destruction and misery are in their ways:
罗3:17 平安的路,他们未曾知道。”
罗3:17 And the way of peace have they not known:
罗3:18 “他们眼中不怕 神。”
罗3:18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
罗3:19 我们晓得律法上的话,都是对律法以下之人说的,好塞住各人的口,叫普世的人都伏在 神审判之下。
罗3:19 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.
罗3:20 所以凡有血气的,没有一个因行律法能在 神面前称义,因为律法本是叫人知罪。
罗3:20 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.
罗3:21 但如今, 神的义在律法以外已经显明出来,有律法和先知为证:
罗3:21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
罗3:22 就是 神的义,因信耶稣基督加给一切相信的人,并没有分别。
罗3:22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
罗3:23 因为世人都犯了罪,亏缺了 神的荣耀;
罗3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
罗3:24 如今却蒙 神的恩典,因基督耶稣的救赎,就白白地称义。
罗3:24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
罗3:25 神设立耶稣作挽回祭,是凭着耶稣的血,借着人的信,要显明 神的义。因为他用忍耐的心,宽容人先时所犯的罪,
罗3:25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
罗3:26 好在今时显明他的义,使人知道他自己为义,也称信耶稣的人为义。
罗3:26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
罗3:27 既是这样,哪里能夸口呢?没有可夸的了!用何法没有的呢?是用立功之法吗?不是,乃用信主之法。
罗3:27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
罗3:28 所以(有古卷作“因为”)我们看定了:人称义是因着信,不在乎遵行律法。
罗3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
罗3:29 难道 神只作犹太人的 神吗?不也是作外邦人的 神吗?是的,也作外邦人的 神。
罗3:29 Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:
罗3:30 神既是一位,他就要因信称那受割礼的为义,也要因信称那未受割礼的为义。
罗3:30 Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.
罗3:31 这样,我们因信废了律法么?断乎不是!更是坚固律法。
罗3:31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
