Romans 3:3-5
New Century Version
3 If some Jews were not faithful to him, will that stop God from doing what he promised? 4 No! God will continue to be true even when every person is false. As the Scriptures say:
“So you will be shown to be right when you speak,
and you will win your case.” Psalm 51:4
5 When we do wrong, that shows more clearly that God is right. So can we say that God is wrong to punish us? (I am talking as people might talk.)

3 What if some were unfaithful?(A) Will their unfaithfulness nullify God’s faithfulness?(B) 4 Not at all! Let God be true,(C) and every human being a liar.(D) As it is written:
5 But if our unrighteousness brings out God’s righteousness more clearly,(F) what shall we say? That God is unjust in bringing his wrath on us? (I am using a human argument.)(G)
