25 whom God displayed publicly as (A)a [a]propitiation [b](B)in His blood through faith, for a demonstration of His righteousness, [c]because in the (C)forbearance of God He (D)passed over the sins previously committed; 26 for the demonstration of His righteousness at the present time, so that He would be just and the justifier of the one who [d]has faith in Jesus.
27 Where then is (E)boasting? It is excluded. By (F)what kind of law? Of works? No, but by a law of faith.
