Romans 3:7 · American Standard Version

Romans 3:7 in context

  1. 5But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what will we say? Is God unrighteous who inflicts wrath? I speak like men do.
  2. 6May it never be! For then how will God judge the world?
  3. 7For if the truth of God through my lie abounded to his glory, why am I also still judged as a sinner?
  4. 8Why not (as we are slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say), “Let’s do evil, that good may come?” Those who say so are justly condemned.
  5. 9What then? Are we better than they? No, in no way. For we previously warned both Jews and Greeks that they are all under sin.
