Bible in Basic English

24

And they may have righteousness put to their credit, freely, by his grace, through the salvation which is in Christ Jesus:

25

Whom God has put forward as the sign of his mercy, through faith, by his blood, to make clear his righteousness when, in his pity, God let the sins of earlier times go without punishment;

26

And to make clear his righteousness now, so that he might himself be upright, and give righteousness to him who has faith in Jesus.

27

What reason, then, is there for pride? It is shut out. By what sort of law? of works? No, but by a law of faith.

28

For this reason, then, a man may get righteousness by faith without the works of the law.

29

Or is God the God of Jews only? is he not in the same way the God of Gentiles? Yes, of Gentiles:

30

If God is one; and he will give righteousness because of faith to those who have circumcision, and through faith to those who have not circumcision.

31

Do we, then, through faith make the law of no effect? in no way: but we make it clear that the law is important.
