Disciples’ Literal New Testament
26 in the forbearance[a] of God; for the demonstration of His righteousness at the present time, so that He might be righteous and declaring-righteous the one of [b] faith in Jesus.
There Can Be No Boasting In Our Works: It Is By Faith For All!
27 Where then is the boasting? It was shut-out[c]. Through what kind of law[d]? Of works? No, but through a law of faith. 28 For we consider a person to be declared-righteous by faith apart from works of the Law.

New International Version
26 he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.
27 Where, then, is boasting?(A) It is excluded. Because of what law? The law that requires works? No, because of the law that requires faith. 28 For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.(B)
