Romans 4:9-12
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. 10In what contextG4459G3767 was it creditedG3049? Was it after his circumcisionG4061, orG2228 before? It was notG3756 after, butG235 before.1
11AndG2532 he receivedG2983 the signG4592 of circumcisionG4061 as a sealG4973 of theG3588 righteousnessG1343 thatG3588 he had byG3588 faithG4102 while he was still uncircumcisedG203. So thenG1519, heG846 isG1510 the fatherG3962 of allG3956 whoG3588 believeG4100 but are not circumcisedG1223G203, in order thatG1519 righteousnessG1343 might be creditedG3049 to themG846. 12AndG2532 he is also the fatherG3962 of the circumcisedG4061 whoG3588 notG3756 onlyG3440 are circumcisedG4061, butG235 whoG3588 alsoG2532 walkG4748 in theG3588 footstepsG2487 of theG3588 faithG4102 that ourG1473 fatherG3962 AbrahamG11 had before he was circumcisedG1722G203.
