3 For, being ignorant of the justice of God, and seeking to establish their own justice, they have not subjected themselves to the justice of God.
4 For the end of the law, Christ, is unto justice for all who believe.
5 And Moses wrote, about the justice that is of the law, that the man who will have done justice shall live by justice.
6 But the justice that is of faith speaks in this way: Do not say in your heart: "Who shall ascend into heaven?" (that is, to bring Christ down);
7 "Or who shall descend into the abyss?" (that is, to call back Christ from the dead).
8 But what does Scripture say? "The word is near, in your mouth and in your heart." This is the word of faith, which we are preaching.
9 For if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and if you believe in your heart that God has raised him up from the dead, you shall be saved.
