Roma 3:19

3:19 Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under ¹  the law, so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world may be held accountable to God.

Roma 8:17

8:17 And if children, then heirs (namely, heirs of God and also fellow heirs with Christ) ²  – if indeed we suffer with him so we may also be glorified with him.

Roma 11:25

11:25 For I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers and sisters, ³  so that you may not be conceited: A partial hardening has happened to Israel ⁴  until the full number ⁵  of the Gentiles has come in.

Roma 13:3

13:3 (for rulers cause no fear for good conduct but for bad). Do you desire not to fear authority? Do good and you will receive its commendation,

15:13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in him, ⁶  so that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

[3:19]  ¹ tn Grk “in,” “in connection with.”

[8:17]  ² tn Grk “on the one hand, heirs of God; on the other hand, fellow heirs with Christ.” Some prefer to render v. 17 as follows: “And if children, then heirs – that is, heirs of God. Also fellow heirs with Christ if indeed we suffer with him so we may also be glorified with him.” Such a translation suggests two distinct inheritances, one coming to all of God’s children, the other coming only to those who suffer with Christ. The difficulty of this view, however, is that it ignores the correlative conjunctions μέν…δέ (men…de, “on the one hand…on the other hand”): The construction strongly suggests that the inheritances cannot be separated since both explain “then heirs.” For this reason, the preferred translation puts this explanation in parentheses.

[11:25]  ³ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:13.

[11:25]  ⁴ tn Or “Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in.”

[11:25]  ⁵ tn Grk “fullness.”

[15:13]  ⁶ tn Grk “in the believing” or “as [you] believe,” with the object “him” supplied from the context. The referent could be God (15:13a) or Christ (15:12).
