No One Is Righteous

Romans 3

9 What then? Are we Jews 1 any better off? 2 No, not at all. For we have already charged that all, both k Jews and l Greeks, are m under sin,

10 as it is written:
n "None is righteous, no, not one;
 11 no one understands;
no one seeks for God.
 12 All have turned aside; together they have become worthless;
no one does good,
not even one."
 13 o "Their throat is p an open grave;
they use their tongues to deceive."
q "The venom of asps is under their lips."
 14 r "Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness."
 15 s "Their feet are swift to shed blood;
 16 in their paths are ruin and misery,
 17 and t the way of peace they have not known."
 18 u "There is no fear of God before their eyes."

19 Now we know that whatever v the law says it speaks to those who are under the law, w so that every mouth may be stopped, and x the whole world may be held accountable to God. 20 For y by works of the law no human being 3 will be justified in his sight, since z through the law comes knowledge of sin.
