Answer: proved and sin
Explanation:
Romans 3:9 For we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin.
This verse speaks that although it is true that we were created in the image and likeness of God, we are all under sin. Here no one is better than anyone since we drag the sin of the first inhabitants of the earth. It doesn't matter if you are a Jew or a Gentile, the sin is in us.
