Romans 3:29-31
The Message
29-30 And where does that leave our proud Jewish claim of having a corner on God? Also canceled. God is the God of outsider non-Jews as well as insider Jews. How could it be otherwise since there is only one God? God sets right all who welcome his action and enter into it, both those who follow our religious system and those who have never heard of our religion.
31 But by shifting our focus from what we do to what God does, don’t we cancel out all our careful keeping of the rules and ways God commanded? Not at all. What happens, in fact, is that by putting that entire way of life in its proper place, we confirm it.

Romans 3:29-31
New International Version
29 Or is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles too? Yes, of Gentiles too,(A) 30 since there is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith.(B) 31 Do we, then, nullify the law by this faith? Not at all! Rather, we uphold the law.
