Bible Verses About Justification

Only in Jehovah, said hath one, Have I righteousness and strength, Unto Him he cometh in, And ashamed are all those displeased with Him.

In Jehovah are all the seed of Israel justified, And they boast themselves.'

Hearken unto Me, ye mighty in heart, Who are far from righteousness.

I have brought near My righteousness, It is not far off, And My salvation--it doth not tarry, And I have given in Zion salvation, To Israel My glory!

Near is My righteousness, Gone out hath My salvation and Mine arms, Peoples they judge, on Me isles do wait, Yea, on Mine arm they do wait with hope.

Lift ye up to the heavens your eyes, And look attentively unto the earth beneath, For the heavens as smoke have vanished, And the earth as a garment weareth out, And its inhabitants as gnats do die, And My salvation is to the age, And My righteousness is not broken.

for I am not ashamed of the good news of the Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation to every one who is believing, both to Jew first, and to Greek.

For the righteousness of God in it is revealed from faith to faith, according as it hath been written, `And the righteous one by faith shall live,'

And now apart from law hath the righteousness of God been manifested, testified to by the law and the prophets,

and the righteousness of God is through the faith of Jesus Christ to all, and upon all those believing, --for there is no difference,

being declared righteous freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,

whom God did set forth a mercy seat, through the faith in his blood, for the shewing forth of His righteousness, because of the passing over of the bygone sins in the forbearance of God--

for the shewing forth of His righteousness in the present time, for His being righteous, and declaring him righteous who is of the faith of Jesus.

and to him who is not working, and is believing upon Him who is declaring righteous the impious, his faith is reckoned--to righteousness:

even as David also doth speak of the happiness of the man to whom God doth reckon righteousness apart from works:

`Happy they whose lawless acts were forgiven, and whose sins were covered;

happy the man to whom the Lord may not reckon sin.'

Is this happiness, then, upon the circumcision, or also upon the uncircumcision--for we say that the faith was reckoned to Abraham--to righteousness?

how then was it reckoned? he being in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision;

and a sign he did receive of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith in the uncircumcision, for his being father of all those believing through uncircumcision, for the righteousness also being reckoned to them,

and father of circumcision to those not of circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of the faith, that is in the uncircumcision of our father Abraham.

For not through law is the promise to Abraham, or to his seed, of his being heir of the world, but through the righteousness of faith;

for if they who are of law are heirs, the faith hath been made void, and the promise hath been made useless;

for the law doth work wrath; for where law is not, neither is transgression.

Because of this it is of faith, that it may be according to grace, for the promise being sure to all the seed, not to that which is of the law only, but also to that which is of the faith of Abraham,
