Romans 3:25-27
Tree of Life Version
[a] 25 God set forth Yeshua as an atonement,[b] through faith in His blood, to show His righteousness in passing over sins already committed. 26 Through God’s forbearance, He demonstrates His righteousness at the present time—that He Himself is just and also the justifier of the one who puts his trust in Yeshua.[c]
27 Where, then, is boasting? It is excluded. By what principle? Of works? No, but by the principle of faith.
