Romans 3:11

Read in context

Romans 3:9–13 · Berean Standard Bible

9 What then? Are we any better? Not at all. For we have already made the charge that Jews and Greeks alike are all under sin.

10 As it is written: “There is no one righteous, not even one.

11 There is no one who understands, no one who seeks God.

12 All have turned away, they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one.”

13 “Their throats are open graves; their tongues practice deceit.” “The venom of vipers is on their lips.”
