RO-4:1 What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as
pertaining to the flesh, hath found?
RO-4:2 For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath [whereof]
to glory; but not before God.
RO-4:3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and
it was counted unto him for righteousness.
RO-4:4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of
grace, but of debt.
RO-4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that
justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
RO-4:6 Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man,
unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,
RO-4:7 [Saying], Blessed [are] they whose iniquities are
forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
RO-4:8 Blessed [is] the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
RO-4:9 [Cometh] this blessedness then upon the circumcision
[only], or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith
was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.
RO-4:10 How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision,
or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.
RO-4:11 And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the
righteousness of the faith which [he had yet] being
uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that
believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness
might be imputed unto them also:
RO-4:12 And the father of circumcision to them who are not of
the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that
faith of our father Abraham, which [he had] being [yet]
uncircumcised.
RO-4:13 For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world,
[was] not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but
through the righteousness of faith.
RO-4:14 For if they which are of the law [be] heirs, faith is
made void, and the promise made of none effect:
RO-4:15 Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is,
[there is] no transgression.
RO-4:16 Therefore [it is] of faith, that [it might be] by grace;
to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to
that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the
faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,
RO-4:17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many
nations,) before him whom he believed, [even] God, who
quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as
though they were.
RO-4:18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become
the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken,
So shall thy seed be.
RO-4:19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own
body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither
yet the deadness of Sarah's womb:
RO-4:20 He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief;
but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;
RO-4:21 And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he
was able also to perform.
RO-4:22 And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.
RO-4:23 Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was
imputed to him;
RO-4:24 But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we
believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;
RO-4:25 Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again
for our justification.
