G2532–καί–kai

Lo, thou art named a Jew, and dost rest upon the law, and dost boast in God,

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

and dost know the will, and dost approve the distinctions, being instructed out of the law,

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

an instructor of foolish ones, a teacher of babes, having the form of the knowledge and of the truth in the law.

καὶ kai “and”

and the uncircumcision, by nature, fulfilling the law, shall judge thee who, through letter and circumcision, `art' a transgressor of law.

καὶ kai “And”καὶ kai “and”

but a Jew `is' he who is `so' inwardly, and circumcision `is' of the heart, in spirit, not in letter, of which the praise is not of men, but of God.

καὶ kai “and”

let it not be! and let God become true, and every man false, according as it hath been written, `That Thou mayest be declared righteous in Thy words, and mayest overcome in Thy being judged.'

καὶ kai “and”

and not, as we are evil spoken of, and as certain affirm us to say -- `We may do the evil things, that the good ones may come?' whose judgment is righteous.

καὶ kai “And”καὶ kai “and”

What, then? are we better? not at all! for we did before charge both Jews and Greeks with being all under sin,

καὶ kai “and”

Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.

καὶ kai “and”

Ruin and misery `are' in their ways.

καὶ kai “and”

And a way of peace they did not know.

καὶ kai “and”

And we have known that as many things as the law saith, to those in the law it doth speak, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may come under judgment to God;

καὶ kai “and”

And now apart from law hath the righteousness of God been manifested, testified to by the law and the prophets,

καὶ kai “and”

and the righteousness of God `is' through the faith of Jesus Christ to all, and upon all those believing, -- for there is no difference,

καὶ kai “and”

for all did sin, and are come short of the glory of God --

καὶ kai “and”

for the shewing forth of His righteousness in the present time, for His being righteous, and declaring him righteous who `is' of the faith of Jesus.

καὶ kai “and”

The God of Jews only `is He', and not also of nations?

καὶ kai “also”καὶ kai “also”

yes, also of nations; since one `is' God who shall declare righteous the circumcision by faith, and the uncircumcision through the faith.

καὶ kai “and”

for what doth the writing say? `And Abraham did believe God, and it was reckoned to him -- to righteousness;'

καὶ kai “and”

even as David also doth speak of the happiness of the man to whom God doth reckon righteousness apart from works:

καὶ kai “also”

`Happy they whose lawless acts were forgiven, and whose sins were covered;

καὶ kai “and”

`Is' this happiness, then, upon the circumcision, or also upon the uncircumcision -- for we say that the faith was reckoned to Abraham -- to righteousness?

καὶ kai “also”

and a sign he did receive of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith in the uncircumcision, for his being father of all those believing through uncircumcision, for the righteousness also being reckoned to them,

καὶ kai “And”καὶ kai “also”

and father of circumcision to those not of circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of the faith, that `is' in the uncircumcision of our father Abraham.

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “also”

for if they who are of law `are' heirs, the faith hath been made void, and the promise hath been made useless;

καὶ kai “and”
