American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
Behold, even the moon hath no brightness,And the stars are not pure in his sight:
What is man, that he should be clean?And he that is born of a woman, that he should be righteous?
Behold, he putteth no trust in his holy ones;Yea, the heavens are not clean in his sight:
How much less {Or, that which is}one that is abominable and corrupt,A man that drinketh iniquity like water!
And enter not into judgment with thy servant;For in thy sight no man living is righteous.
for the showing, I say, of his righteousness at this present season: that he might himself be {See chapter 2:13 margin.}just, and the {See chapter 2:13 margin.}justifier of him that {Greek: is of faith.}hath faith in Jesus.
and whom he foreordained, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect? {Or, Shall God that justifieth?}It is God that justifieth;
who is he that condemneth? {Or, Shall Christ Jesus that died…us?}It is Christ Jesus that died, yea rather, that was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is reckoned for righteousness.
For we also once were foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, hating one another.
and by him every one that believeth is justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
who was delivered up for our trespasses, and was raised for our justification.
Being therefore justified {Greek: out of.}by faith, {Many ancient authorities read let us have.}we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is reckoned for righteousness.
who was delivered up for our trespasses, and was raised for our justification.
Him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf; that we might become the righteousness of God in him.
Much more then, being now justified {Greek: in.}by his blood, shall we be saved from the wrath of God through him.
Herein is love made perfect with us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as he is, even so are we in this world.
