Romans 3:17
15 Their feet are swift to shed blood:
16 Destruction and misery are in their ways:
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.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
