Romans 4:2-9
2IfG1487 AbrahamG11 was indeed justifiedG1063G1344 byG1537 worksG2041, he hadG2192 something to boast aboutG2745, butG235 notG3756 beforeG4314 GodG2316. 3ForG1063 whatG5101 does theG3588 ScriptureG1124 sayG3004? “AbrahamG11 believedG4100 GodG2316, andG2532 it was creditedG3049 to himG846 asG1519 righteousnessG1343.”1
4NowG1161 theG3588 wagesG3408 ofG3588 the workerG2038 are not creditedG3756G3049 asG2596 a giftG5485, butG235 asG2596 an obligationG3783. 5HoweverG1161, to theG3588 one who does not workG3361G2038, butG1161 believesG4100 inG1909 Him whoG3588 justifiesG1344 theG3588 ungodlyG765, hisG846 faithG4102 is creditedG3049 asG1519 righteousnessG1343. 6AndG2532 DavidG1138 speaksG3004 likewiseG2509 of theG3588 blessednessG3108 of theG3588 manG444 to whomG3739 GodG2316 creditsG3049 righteousnessG1343 apart fromG5565 worksG2041:
9Is thisG3778 blessingG3108 only onG1909 theG3588 circumcisedG4061, orG2228 alsoG2532 onG1909 theG3588 uncircumcisedG203? We have been sayingG3004 thatG3588 Abraham’sG11 faithG4102 was creditedG3049 to him asG1519 righteousnessG1343.
