Romans 3:12-20
King James Version
12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
13 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:
14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
15 Their feet are swift to shed blood:
16 Destruction and misery are in their ways:
17 And the way of peace have they not known:
18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.
20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

Romans 3:12-20
New King James Version
12 They have all turned aside;
They have together become unprofitable;
There is none who does good, no, not one.”
13 “Their(A) throat is an open [a]tomb;
With their tongues they have practiced deceit”;
(B)“The poison of asps is under their lips”;
14 “Whose(C) mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.”
15 “Their(D) feet are swift to shed blood;
16 Destruction and misery are in their ways;
17 And the way of peace they have not known.”
18 “There(E) is no fear of God before their eyes.”
19 Now we know that whatever (F)the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that (G)every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become [b]guilty before God. 20 Therefore (H)by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
