Romans 3:8-18
New American Standard Bible
10as it is written: 'THERE IS NO RIGHTEOUS PERSON, NOT EVEN ONE;
11THERE IS NO ONE WHO UNDERSTANDS, THERE IS NO ONE WHO SEEKS OUT God;
12THEY HAVE ALL TURNED ASIDE, TOGETHER THEY HAVE BECOME CORRUPT; THERE IS NO ONE WHO DOES GOOD, THERE IS NOT EVEN ONE.'
13'THEIR THROAT IS AN OPEN GRAVE, WITH THEIR TONGUES THEY KEEP DECEIVING,' 'THE VENOM OF ASPS IS UNDER THEIR LIPS';
14'THEIR MOUTH IS FULL OF CURSING AND BITTERNESS';
15'THEIR FEET ARE SWIFT TO SHED BLOOD,
16DESTRUCTION AND MISERY ARE IN THEIR PATHS,
17AND THEY HAVE NOT KNOWN THE WAY OF PEACE.'
18'THERE IS NO FEAR OF God BEFORE THEIR EYES.'
King James Version
Chapter 3
8And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just. 9What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin; 10As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: 11There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. 12They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. 13Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: 14Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: 15Their feet are swift to shed blood: 16Destruction and misery are in their ways: 17And the way of peace have they not known: 18There is no fear of God before their eyes.Christian Standard Bible
10as it is written:There is no one righteous, not even one.
11There is no one who understands;there is no one who seeks God.
12All have turned away;all alike have become worthless.There is no one who does what is good,not even one.
13Their throat is an open grave;they deceive with their tongues. Vipers' venom is under their lips.
14Their mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.
15Their feet are swift to shed blood;
16ruin and wretchedness are in their paths,
17and the path of peace they have not known.
18There is no fear of God before their eyes.
New Living Translation
10As the Scriptures say, 'No one is righteous — not even one.
11No one is truly wise; no one is seeking God.
12All have turned away; all have become useless. No one does good, not a single one.'
13'Their talk is foul, like the stench from an open grave. Their tongues are filled with lies.' 'Snake venom drips from their lips.'
14'Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.'
15'They rush to commit murder.
16Destruction and misery always follow them.
17They don’t know where to find peace.'
18'They have no fear of God at all.'
English Standard Version
9What then? Are we Jews any better off? No, not at all. For we have already charged that all, both Jews and Greeks, are under sin,
10as it is written: “None is righteous, no, not one;
11no one understands; no one seeks for God.
12All have turned aside; together they have become worthless; no one does good, not even one.”
13“Their throat is an open grave; they use their tongues to deceive.” “The venom of asps is under their lips.”
14“Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness.”
15“Their feet are swift to shed blood;
16in their paths are ruin and misery,
17and the way of peace they have not known.”
18“There is no fear of God before their eyes.”
New International Version
10As it is written: 'There is no one righteous, not even one;
11there is no one who understands; there is no one who seeks God.
12All have turned away, they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one.'
13Their throats are open graves; their tongues practice deceit.' 'The poison of vipers is on their lips.'
14Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.'
15Their feet are swift to shed blood;
16ruin and misery mark their ways,
17and the way of peace they do not know.'
18There is no fear of God before their eyes.'
