Romans 3:21-26

The Righteousness of God Through Faith

21 But now ^athe righteousness of God ^bhas been manifested apart from the law, although ^cthe Law and the Prophets bear witness to it— 22 the righteousness of God ^dthrough faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. ^eFor there is no distinction: 23 for ^fall have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 ^gand are justified ^hby his grace as a gift, ⁱthrough the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 25 whom God ^jput forward as ^ka propitiation ^lby his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God’s righteousness, because in ^mhis divine forbearance he had passed over ⁿformer sins. 26 It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

Romans 9:30

Israel’s Unbelief

30 What shall we say, then? ^oThat Gentiles who did not pursue righteousness have attained it, that is, ^pa righteousness that is by faith;

Romans 10:3-4

3 For, being ignorant of ^qthe righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness. 4 For ^rChrist is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. ^{▼▼Or end of the law, that everyone who believes may be justified}

2 Corinthians 5:21

21 ^tFor our sake he made him to be sin ^uwho knew no sin, so that in him we might become ^vthe righteousness of God.

Philippians 3:9

9 and be found in him, not having ^wa righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but ^xthat which comes through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God that depends on faith—
