Romans 3:4 Context
2Much euery way: chiefly, because that vnto them were committed the Oracles of God. 3For what if some did not beleeue? shall their vnbeliefe make the faith of God without effect? 4God forbid: yea, let God be true, but euery man a lier, as it is written, That thou mightest be iustified in thy sayings, and mightest ouercome when thou art iudged. 5But if our vnrighteousnesse commend the righteousnesse of God, what shall we say? is God vnrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speake as a man) 6God forbid: for then how shall God iudge the world?
