Romans 3:7

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

However, if my falsehood accentuates God’s truthfulness, to the increase of His glory, why am I still condemned as a sinner?
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For if the truth of God through my lie abounded to his glory, why am I also still judged as a sinner?

For{G1063} if{G1487} the truth{G225} of God{G2316} hath more abounded{G4052}{(G5656)} through{G1722} my{G1699} lie{G5582} unto{G1519} his{G846} glory{G1391}; why{G5101} yet{G2089} am{G2919} I also{G2504} judged{G2919}{(G5743)} as{G5613} a sinner{G268}?
Strong's King James
(7) But if through my deception, the firm-truth of יהוה YAHWEH abounds unto His glory, why am I, myself still being judged as a deviator?
The F.O.G*
[7] Someone might object, "If my falsehood enhances God's truthfulness and increases His glory, why am I still condemned as a sinner? Shouldn't I be rewarded for making God look good?"
The F.O.G Paraphrase
for if the truth of God in my falsehood did more abound to His glory, why yet am I also as a sinner judged?
Young's Literal Translation
