25 whom God displayed publicly as (A)a [a]propitiation [b](B)in His blood through faith. This was to demonstrate His righteousness, [c]because in God’s merciful (C)restraint He (D)let the sins previously committed go unpunished; 26 for the demonstration, that is, 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.
