15 We which are Iewes by nature, and not sinners of the gentiles, 16 Knowe that a man is not iustified by the deedes of the lawe, but by the fayth of Iesus Christe: And we haue beleued on Iesus Christ, that we might be iustified by the fayth of Christe, and not by the deedes of the lawe, because by the deedes of the lawe no fleshe shalbe iustified. 17 If then, whyle we seke to be made ryghteous by Christe, we our selues are founde sinners: is therfore Christe the minister of sinne? God forbyd. 18 For yf I builde agayne the thynges which I destroyed, then make I my selfe a trespasser. 19 For I, through the lawe, am dead to the lawe, that I myght lyue vnto God: I am crucified with Christe. 20 Neuerthelesse, I lyue: yet nowe not I, but Christe lyueth in me. And ye lyfe which I nowe liue in the fleshe, I lyue by the faith of the sonne of God, which loued me, and gaue hym selfe for me. 21 I reiect not the grace of God: For yf ryghteousnesse come of the lawe, then Christe is dead in vayne.
