Romans 3:4-6

New Testament for Everyone

⁴Certainly not! Let God be true, and every human being false! As the Bible says,

So that you may be found in the right in what you say, and may win the victory when you come to court.

⁵But if our being in the wrong proves that God is in the right, what are we going to say? That God is unjust to inflict anger on people? (I’m reducing things to a human scale!) ⁶Certainly not! How then could God judge the world?
