Romans 10:3
For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not themselves submitted unto the righteousness of God.

καὶ εὑρεθῶ ἐν αὐτῷ μὴ ἔχων ἐμὴν δικαιοσύνην τὴν ἐκ νόμου ἀλλὰ τὴν διὰ πίστεως Χριστοῦ τὴν ἐκ θεοῦ δικαιοσύνην ἐπὶ τῇ πίστει
And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:
καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Ὑμεῖς ἐστε οἱ δικαιοῦντες ἑαυτοὺς ἐνώπιον τῶν ἀνθρώπων ὁ δὲ θεὸς γινώσκει τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν· ὅτι τὸ ἐν ἀνθρώποις ὑψηλὸν βδέλυγμα ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ ἐστιν
And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.
τὸν γὰρ μὴ γνόντα ἁμαρτίαν ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν ἁμαρτίαν ἐποίησεν ἵνα ἡμεῖς γινώμεθα δικαιοσύνη θεοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ
For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
Εἶπεν δὲ καὶ πρός τινας τοὺς πεποιθότας ἐφ' ἑαυτοῖς ὅτι εἰσὶν δίκαιοι καὶ ἐξουθενοῦντας τοὺς λοιποὺς τὴν παραβολὴν ταύτην·
And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:
δικαιοσύνη γὰρ θεοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ ἀποκαλύπτεται ἐκ πίστεως εἰς πίστιν καθὼς γέγραπται Ὁ δὲ δίκαιος ἐκ πίστεως ζήσεται
For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
ὥσπερ γὰρ διὰ τῆς παρακοῆς τοῦ ἑνὸς ἀνθρώπου ἁμαρτωλοὶ κατεστάθησαν οἱ πολλοί οὕτως καὶ διὰ τῆς ὑπακοῆς τοῦ ἑνὸς δίκαιοι κατασταθήσονται οἱ πολλοί
For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall be many made righteous.
ὅτι λέγεις ὅτι Πλούσιός εἰμι καὶ πεπλούτηκα καὶ οὐδενὸς χρείαν ἔχω καὶ οὐκ οἶδας ὅτι σὺ εἶ ὁ ταλαίπωρος καὶ ἐλεεινὸς καὶ πτωχὸς καὶ τυφλὸς καὶ γυμνός
Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
אֲנִי אַגִּיד צִדְקָתֵךְ וְאֶֽת-מַעֲשַׂיִךְ וְלֹא יוֹעִילֽוּךְ׃
I will declare thy righteousness, and thy works; for they shall not profit thee.
δικαιοσύνη δὲ θεοῦ διὰ πίστεως Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ εἰς πάντας καὶ ἐπὶ πάντας τοὺς πιστεύοντας οὐ γάρ ἐστιν διαστολή
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:
כִּי כַבֶּגֶד יֹאכְלֵם עָשׁ וְכַצֶּמֶר יֹאכְלֵם סָס וְצִדְקָתִי לְעוֹלָם תִּֽהְיֶה וִישׁוּעָתִי לְדוֹר דּוֹרִֽים׃
For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool: but my righteousness shall be for ever, and my salvation from generation to generation.
ὁ δὲ θέλων δικαιοῦν ἑαυτὸν εἶπεν πρὸς τὸν Ἰησοῦν Καὶ τίς ἐστίν μου πλησίον
But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?
וְאַתָּה צַדִּיק עַל כָּל-הַבָּא עָלֵינוּ כִּֽי-אֱמֶת עָשִׂיתָ וַֽאֲנַחְנוּ הִרְשָֽׁעְנוּ׃
Howbeit thou art just in all that is brought upon us; for thou hast done right, but we have done wickedly:
כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה שִׁמְרוּ מִשְׁפָּט וַעֲשׂוּ צְדָקָה כִּֽי-קְרוֹבָה יְשֽׁוּעָתִי לָבוֹא וְצִדְקָתִי לְהִגָּלֽוֹת׃
Thus saith the LORD, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
אַף-אֲנִי אֵלֵךְ עִמָּם בְּקֶרִי וְהֵֽבֵאתִי אֹתָם בְּאֶרֶץ אֹֽיְבֵיהֶם אוֹ-אָז יִכָּנַע לְבָבָם הֶֽעָרֵל וְאָז יִרְצוּ אֶת-עֲוֹנָֽם׃
And that I also have walked contrary unto them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised hearts be humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity:
יָשֹׁר׀ עַל-אֲנָשִׁים וַיֹּאמֶר חָטָאתִי וְיָשָׁר הֶעֱוֵיתִי וְלֹא-שָׁוָה לִֽי׃
He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;
וְצִדְקָתְךָ אֱלֹהִים עַד-מָרוֹם אֲשֶׁר-עָשִׂיתָ גְדֹלוֹת אֱלֹהִים מִי כָמֽוֹךָ׃
Thy righteousness also, O God, is very high, who hast done great things: O God, who is like unto thee!
וַנְּהִי כַטָּמֵא כֻּלָּנוּ וּכְבֶגֶד עִדִּים כָּל-צִדְקֹתֵינוּ וַנָּבֶל כֶּֽעָלֶה כֻּלָּנוּ וַעֲוֺנֵנוּ כָּרוּחַ יִשָּׂאֻֽנוּ׃
But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
Τί οὖν ἐροῦμεν ὅτι ἔθνη τὰ μὴ διώκοντα δικαιοσύνην κατέλαβεν δικαιοσύνην δικαιοσύνην δὲ τὴν ἐκ πίστεως
What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed after not righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith.
πρὸς ἔνδειξιν τῆς δικαιοσύνης αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ νῦν καιρῷ εἰς τὸ εἶναι αὐτὸν δίκαιον καὶ δικαιοῦντα τὸν ἐκ πίστεως Ἰησοῦ
To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
