G3551–νόμος–nomos

It is not those that merely hear the Law read who are righteous in the sight of God, but it is those that obey the Law who will be pronounced righteous.

νόμου nomou “of [the] law [are]”νόμου nomou “of [the] law”

For when Gentiles who have no Law obey by natural instinct the commands of the Law, they, without having a Law, are a Law to themselves;

νόμον nomon “the law”νόμου nomou “law”νόμον nomon “[the] Law”νόμος, nomos “a law,”

since they exhibit proof that a knowledge of the conduct which the Law requires is engraven on their hearts, while their consciences also bear witness to the Law, and their thoughts, as if in mutual discussion, accuse them or perhaps maintain their inno

νόμου nomou “law”

And since you claim the name of Jew, and find rest and satisfaction in the Law, and make your boast in God,

νόμῳ nomō “law”

and know the supreme will, and can test things that differ--being a man who receives instruction from the Law--

νόμου· nomou “law;”

a schoolmaster for the dull and ignorant, a teacher of the young, because in the Law you possess an outline of real knowledge and an outline of the truth:

νόμῳ· nomō “law;”

You who make your boast in the Law, do you offend against its commands and so dishonour God?

νόμῳ nomō “law”νόμου nomou “law”

Circumcision does indeed profit, if you obey the Law; but if you are a Law-breaker, the fact that you have been circumcised counts for nothing.

νόμον nomon “[the] law”νόμου nomou “of law”

In the same way if an uncircumcised man pays attention to the just requirements of the Law, shall not his lack of circumcision be overlooked, and,

νόμου nomou “law”

although he is a Gentile by birth, if he scrupulously obeys the Law, shall he not sit in judgement upon you who, possessing, as you do, a written Law and circumcision, are yet a Law-breaker?

νόμον nomon “law”νόμου. nomou “of law.”

But it cannot be denied that all that the Law says is addressed to those who are living under the Law, in order that every mouth may be stopped, and that the whole world may await sentence from God.

νόμος nomos “law”νόμῳ nomō “law”

For on the ground of obedience to Law no man living will be declared righteous before Him. Law simply brings a sure knowledge of sin.

νόμου nomou “of [the] Law”νόμου nomou “[the] Law”

But now a righteousness coming from God has been brought to light apart from any Law, both Law and Prophets bearing witness to it--

νόμου nomou “law”νόμου nomou “Law”

Where then is there room for your boasting? It is for ever shut out. On what principle? On the ground of merit? No, but on the ground of faith.

νόμου; nomou “principle?”νόμου nomou “[the] principle”

For we maintain that it is as the result of faith that a man is held to be righteous, apart from actions done in obedience to Law.

νόμου. nomou “of the Law.”

Do we then by means of this faith abolish the Law? No, indeed; we give the Law a firmer footing.

νόμον nomon “Law”νόμον nomon “law”

Again, the promise that he should inherit the world did not come to Abraham or his posterity conditioned by Law, but by faith-righteousness.

νόμου nomou “[the] Law”

For if it is the righteous through Law who are heirs, then faith is useless and the promise counts for nothing.

νόμου nomou “[the] Law [are]”

For the Law inflicts punishment; but where no Law exists, there can be no violation of Law.

νόμος nomos “law”νόμος, nomos “law,”

All depends on faith, and for this reason--that acceptance with God might be an act of pure grace,

νόμου nomou “law”

For prior to the Law sin was already in the world; only it is not entered in the account against us when no Law exists.

νόμου nomou “[the] law”νόμου· nomou “law;”

Now Law was brought in later on, so that transgression might increase. But where sin increased, grace has overflowed;

Νόμος Nomos “[The] law”

For Sin shall not be lord over you, since you are subjects not of Law, but of grace.

νόμον nomon “law”

Are we therefore to sin because we are no longer under the authority of Law, but under grace? No, indeed!

νόμον nomon “law”

Brethren, do you not know--for I am writing to people acquainted with the Law--that it is during our lifetime that we are subject to the Law?
