1 WHAT then shall we say that Abraham our father hath obtained by the flesh? 2 For if Abraham was justified by works, he hath cause for glorying; though not before God. 3 For what doth the scripture say? Abraham truly believed God, and it was imputed to him for righteousness. 4 Now to him that worketh, the reward is not brought to account as a favour, but as a debt. 5 But to him who doth not work, but believeth in him who justifieth the ungodly, his faith is reckoned in account for righteousness. 6 As David also describeth the blessedness of that man, to whom God imputeth righteousness without works, 7 ?Blessed are they whose unrighteousnesses are forgiven, and whose sins are covered up. 8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will in nowise impute sin.? Romans 4:1-8, Haweis New Testament. Public domain.
