1 What then will we say that Abraham, our forefather, has found according to the flesh? Romans 4:1WEB
2 For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not toward God. Romans 4:2WEB
3 For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” Romans 4:3WEB
4 Now to him who works, the reward is not counted as grace, but as something owed. Romans 4:4WEB
5 But to him who doesn’t work, but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness. Romans 4:5WEB
6 Even as David also pronounces blessing on the man to whom God counts righteousness apart from works: Romans 4:6WEB
7 “Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, whose sins are covered. Romans 4:7WEB
8 Blessed is the man whom the Lord will by no means charge with sin.” Romans 4:8WEB
9 Is this blessing then pronounced only on the circumcised, or on the uncircumcised also? For we say that faith was accounted to Abraham for righteousness. Romans 4:9WEB
10 How then was it counted? When he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision. Romans 4:10WEB
11 He received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while he was in uncircumcision, that he might be the father of all those who believe, though they might be in uncircumcision, that righteousness might also be accounted to them. Romans 4:11WEB
12 He is the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had in uncircumcision. Romans 4:12WEB
13 For the promise to Abraham and to his offspring that he would be heir of the world wasn’t through the law, but through the righteousness of faith. Romans 4:13WEB
14 For if those who are of the law are heirs, faith is made void, and the promise is made of no effect. Romans 4:14WEB
15 For the law produces wrath; for where there is no law, neither is there disobedience. Romans 4:15WEB
16 For this cause it is of faith, that it may be according to grace, to the end that the promise may be sure to all the offspring, 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. Romans 4:16WEB
17 As it is written, “I have made you a father of many nations.” This is in the presence of him whom he believed: God, who gives life to the dead, and calls the things that are not, as though they were. Romans 4:17WEB
18 Against hope, Abraham in hope believed, to the end that he might become a father of many nations, according to that which had been spoken, “So will your offspring be.” Romans 4:18WEB
19 Without being weakened in faith, he didn’t consider his own body, already having been worn out, (he being about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah’s womb. Romans 4:19WEB
20 Yet, looking to the promise of God, he didn’t waver through unbelief, but grew strong through faith, giving glory to God, Romans 4:20WEB
21 and being fully assured that what he had promised, he was also able to perform. Romans 4:21WEB
22 Therefore it also was “credited to him for righteousness.” Romans 4:22WEB
23 Now it was not written that it was accounted to him for his sake alone, Romans 4:23WEB
24 but for our sake also, to whom it will be accounted, who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead, Romans 4:24WEB
25 who was delivered up for our trespasses, and was raised for our justification. Romans 4:25WEB
