1

अपरञ्च यिहूदिनः किं श्रेष्ठत्वं? तथा त्वक्छेदस्य वा किं फलं?

aparañca yihūdinaḥ kiṁ śreṣṭhatvaṁ? tathā tvakchedasya vā kiṁ phalaṁ?

What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?
2

सर्व्वथा बहूनि फलानि सन्ति, विशेषत ईश्वरस्य शास्त्रं तेभ्योऽदीयत।

sarvvathā bahūni phalāni santi, viśeṣata īśvarasya śāstraṁ tebhyo'dīyata|

Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.
3

कैश्चिद् अविश्वसने कृते तेषाम् अविश्वसनात् किम् ईश्वरस्य विश्वास्यताया हानिरुत्पत्स्यते?

kaiścid aviśvasane kṛte teṣām aviśvasanāt kim īśvarasya viśvāsyatāyā hānirutpatsyate?

For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?
4

केनापि प्रकारेण नहि। यद्यपि सर्व्वे मनुष्या मिथ्यावादिनस्तथापीश्वरः सत्यवादी। शास्त्रे यथा लिखितमास्ते, अतस्त्वन्तु स्ववाक्येन निर्द्दोषो हि भविष्यसि। विचारे चैव निष्पापो भविष्यसि न संशयः।

kenāpi prakāreṇa nahi| yadyapi sarvve manuṣyā mithyāvādinastathāpīśvaraḥ satyavādī| śāstre yathā likhitamāste, atastvantu svavākyena nirddoṣo hi bhaviṣyasi| vicāre caiva niṣpāpo bhaviṣyasi na saṁśayaḥ|

God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
5

अस्माकम् अन्यायेन यदीश्वरस्य न्यायः प्रकाशते तर्हि किं वदिष्यामः? अहं मानुषाणां कथामिव कथां कथयामि, ईश्वरः समुचितं दण्डं दत्त्वा किम् अन्यायी भविष्यति?

asmākam anyāyena yadīśvarasya nyāyaḥ prakāśate tarhi kiṁ vadiṣyāmaḥ? ahaṁ mānuṣāṇāṁ kathāmiva kathāṁ kathayāmi, īśvaraḥ samucitaṁ daṇḍaṁ dattvā kim anyāyī bhaviṣyati?

But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)
6

इत्थं न भवतु, तथा सतीश्वरः कथं जगतो विचारयिता भविष्यति?

itthaṁ na bhavatu, tathā satīśvaraḥ kathaṁ jagato vicārayitā bhaviṣyati?

God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?
7

मम मिथ्यावाक्यवदनाद् यदीश्वरस्य सत्यत्वेन तस्य महिमा वर्द्धते तर्हि कस्मादहं विचारेऽपराधित्वेन गण्यो भवामि?

mama mithyāvākyavadanād yadīśvarasya satyatvena tasya mahimā varddhate tarhi kasmādahaṁ vicāre'parādhitvena gaṇyo bhavāmi?

For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?
8

मङ्गलार्थं पापमपि करणीयमिति वाक्यं त्वया कुतो नोच्यते? किन्तु यैरुच्यते ते नितान्तं दण्डस्य पात्राणि भवन्ति; तथापि तद्वाक्यम् अस्माभिरप्युच्यत इत्यस्माकं ग्लानिं कुर्व्वन्तः कियन्तो लोका वदन्ति।

maṅgalārthaṁ pāpamapi karaṇīyamiti vākyaṁ tvayā kuto nocyate? kintu yairucyate te nitāntaṁ daṇḍasya pātrāṇi bhavanti; tathāpi tadvākyam asmābhirapyucyata ityasmākaṁ glāniṁ kurvvantaḥ kiyanto lokā vadanti|

And 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.
9

अन्यलोकेभ्यो वयं किं श्रेष्ठाः? कदाचन नहि यतो यिहूदिनो ऽन्यदेशिनश्च सर्व्वएव पापस्यायत्ता इत्यस्य प्रमाणं वयं पूर्व्वम् अददाम।

anyalokebhyo vayaṁ kiṁ śreṣṭhāḥ? kadācana nahi yato yihūdino 'nyadeśinaśca sarvvaeva pāpasyāyattā ityasya pramāṇaṁ vayaṁ pūrvvam adadāma|

What 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;
10

लिपि र्यथास्ते, नैकोपि धार्म्मिको जनः।

lipi ryathāste, naikopi dhārmmiko janaḥ|

As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
11

तथा ज्ञानीश्वरज्ञानी मानवः कोपि नास्ति हि।

tathā jñānīśvarajñānī mānavaḥ kopi nāsti hi|

There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
12

विमार्गगामिनः सर्व्वे सर्व्वे दुष्कर्म्मकारिणः। एको जनोपि नो तेषां साधुकर्म्म करोति च।

vimārgagāminaḥ sarvve sarvve duṣkarmmakāriṇaḥ| eko janopi no teṣāṁ sādhukarmma karoti ca|

They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
13

तथा तेषान्तु वै कण्ठा अनावृतश्मशानवत्। स्तुतिवादं प्रकुर्व्वन्ति जिह्वाभिस्ते तु केवलं। तेषामोष्ठस्य निम्ने तु विषं तिष्ठति सर्प्पवत्।

tathā teṣāntu vai kaṇṭhā anāvṛtaśmaśānavat| stutivādaṁ prakurvvanti jihvābhiste tu kevalaṁ| teṣāmoṣṭhasya nimne tu viṣaṁ tiṣṭhati sarppavat|

Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:
14

मुखं तेषां हि शापेन कपटेन च पूर्य्यते।

mukhaṁ teṣāṁ hi śāpena kapaṭena ca pūryyate|

Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
15

रक्तपाताय तेषां तु पदानि क्षिप्रगानि च।

raktapātāya teṣāṁ tu padāni kṣipragāni ca|

Their feet are swift to shed blood:
16

पथि तेषां मनुष्याणां नाशः क्लेशश्च केवलः।

pathi teṣāṁ manuṣyāṇāṁ nāśaḥ kleśaśca kevalaḥ|

Destruction and misery are in their ways:
17

ते जना नहि जानन्ति पन्थानं सुखदायिनं।

te janā nahi jānanti panthānaṁ sukhadāyinaṁ|

And the way of peace have they not known:
18

परमेशाद् भयं यत्तत् तच्चक्षुषोरगोचरं।

parameśād bhayaṁ yattat taccakṣuṣoragocaraṁ|

There is no fear of God before their eyes.
19

व्यवस्थायां यद्यल्लिखति तद् व्यवस्थाधीनान् लोकान् उद्दिश्य लिखतीति वयं जानीमः। ततो मनुष्यमात्रो निरुत्तरः सन् ईश्वरस्य साक्षाद् अपराधी भवति।

vyavasthāyāṁ yadyallikhati tad vyavasthādhīnān lokān uddiśya likhatīti vayaṁ jānīmaḥ| tato manuṣyamātro niruttaraḥ san īśvarasya sākṣād aparādhī bhavati|

Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
20

अतएव व्यवस्थानुरूपैः कर्म्मभिः कश्चिदपि प्राणीश्वरस्य साक्षात् सपुण्यीकृतो भवितुं न शक्ष्यति यतो व्यवस्थया पापज्ञानमात्रं जायते।

ataeva vyavasthānurūpaiḥ karmmabhiḥ kaścidapi prāṇīśvarasya sākṣāt sapuṇyīkṛto bhavituṁ na śakṣyati yato vyavasthayā pāpajñānamātraṁ jāyate|

Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
21

किन्तु व्यवस्थायाः पृथग् ईश्वरेण देयं यत् पुण्यं तद् व्यवस्थाया भविष्यद्वादिगणस्य च वचनैः प्रमाणीकृतं सद् इदानीं प्रकाशते।

kintu vyavasthāyāḥ pṛthag īśvareṇa deyaṁ yat puṇyaṁ tad vyavasthāyā bhaviṣyadvādigaṇasya ca vacanaiḥ pramāṇīkṛtaṁ sad idānīṁ prakāśate|

But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
22

यीशुख्रीष्टे विश्वासकरणाद् ईश्वरेण दत्तं तत् पुण्यं सकलेषु प्रकाशितं सत् सर्व्वान् विश्वासिनः प्रति वर्त्तते।

yīśukhrīṣṭe viśvāsakaraṇād īśvareṇa dattaṁ tat puṇyaṁ sakaleṣu prakāśitaṁ sat sarvvān viśvāsinaḥ prati varttate|

Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:
23

तेषां कोपि प्रभेदो नास्ति, यतः सर्व्वएव पापिन ईश्वरीयतेजोहीनाश्च जाताः।

teṣāṁ kopi prabhedo nāsti, yataḥ sarvvaeva pāpina īśvarīyatejohīnāśca jātāḥ|

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
24

त ईश्वरस्यानुग्रहाद् मूल्यं विना ख्रीष्टकृतेन परित्राणेन सपुण्यीकृता भवन्ति।

ta īśvarasyānugrahād mūlyaṁ vinā khrīṣṭakṛtena paritrāṇena sapuṇyīkṛtā bhavanti|

Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25

यस्मात् स्वशोणितेन विश्वासात् पापनाशको बली भवितुं स एव पूर्व्वम् ईश्वरेण निश्चितः, इत्थम् ईश्वरीयसहिष्णुत्वात् पुराकृतपापानां मार्ज्जनकरणे स्वीययाथार्थ्यं तेन प्रकाश्यते,

yasmāt svaśoṇitena viśvāsāt pāpanāśako balī bhavituṁ sa eva pūrvvam īśvareṇa niścitaḥ, ittham īśvarīyasahiṣṇutvāt purākṛtapāpānāṁ mārjjanakaraṇe svīyayāthārthyaṁ tena prakāśyate,

Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26

वर्त्तमानकालीयमपि स्वयाथार्थ्यं तेन प्रकाश्यते, अपरं यीशौ विश्वासिनं सपुण्यीकुर्व्वन्नपि स याथार्थिकस्तिष्ठति।

varttamānakālīyamapi svayāthārthyaṁ tena prakāśyate, aparaṁ yīśau viśvāsinaṁ sapuṇyīkurvvannapi sa yāthārthikastiṣṭhati|

To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
27

तर्हि कुत्रात्मश्लाघा? सा दूरीकृता; कया व्यवस्थया? किं क्रियारूपव्यवस्थया? इत्थं नहि किन्तु तत् केवलविश्वासरूपया व्यवस्थयैव भवति।

tarhi kutrātmaślāghā? sā dūrīkṛtā; kayā vyavasthayā? kiṁ kriyārūpavyavasthayā? itthaṁ nahi kintu tat kevalaviśvāsarūpayā vyavasthayaiva bhavati|

Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
28

अतएव व्यवस्थानुरूपाः क्रिया विना केवलेन विश्वासेन मानवः सपुण्यीकृतो भवितुं शक्नोतीत्यस्य राद्धान्तं दर्शयामः।

ataeva vyavasthānurūpāḥ kriyā vinā kevalena viśvāsena mānavaḥ sapuṇyīkṛto bhavituṁ śaknotītyasya rāddhāntaṁ darśayāmaḥ|

Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
29

स किं केवलयिहूदिनाम् ईश्वरो भवति? भिन्नदेशिनाम् ईश्वरो न भवति? भिन्नदेशिनामपि भवति;

sa kiṁ kevalayihūdinām īśvaro bhavati? bhinnadeśinām īśvaro na bhavati? bhinnadeśināmapi bhavati;

Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:
30

यस्माद् एक ईश्वरो विश्वासात् त्वक्छेदिनो विश्वासेनात्वक्छेदिनश्च सपुण्यीकरिष्यति।

yasmād eka īśvaro viśvāsāt tvakchedino viśvāsenātvakchedinaśca sapuṇyīkariṣyati|

Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.
31

तर्हि विश्वासेन वयं किं व्यवस्थां लुम्पाम? इत्थं न भवतु वयं व्यवस्थां संस्थापयाम एव।

tarhi viśvāsena vayaṁ kiṁ vyavasthāṁ lumpāma? itthaṁ na bhavatu vayaṁ vyavasthāṁ saṁsthāpayāma eva|

Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
