Romans 3:23-26
New American Standard Bible
23 for all [a](A)have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 being justified as a gift (B)by His grace through (C)the redemption which is in Christ Jesus, 25 whom God displayed publicly as (D)a [b]propitiation [c](E)in His blood through faith. This was to demonstrate His righteousness, [d]because in God’s merciful (F)restraint He (G)let the sins previously committed go unpunished; 26 for the demonstration, that is, of His righteousness at the present time, so that He would be just and the justifier of the one who [e]has faith in Jesus.

Romans 3:23-26
New International Version
23 for all have sinned(A) and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and all are justified(B) freely by his grace(C) through the redemption(D) that came by Christ Jesus. 25 God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement,[a](E) through the shedding of his blood(F)—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished(G)— 26 he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.
