2ForG1063 ifG1487 AbrahamG11 were justifiedG1344 byG1537 worksG2041, he hathG2192 whereof to gloryG2745; butG235 notG3756 beforeG4314 GodG3588G2316. 3ForG1063 whatG5101 saithG3004 the scriptureG3588G1124? AbrahamG11 believedG4100 GodG3588G2316, andG2532 it was countedG3049 unto himG846 forG1519 righteousnessG1343. 4NowG1161 to him that workethG2038 isG3049 the rewardG3588G3408 notG3756 reckonedG3049 ofG2596 graceG5485, butG235 ofG2596 debtG3588G3783. 5ButG1161 to him that workethG2038 notG3361, butG1161 believethG4100 onG1909 him that justifiethG1344 the ungodlyG765, hisG846 faithG3588G4102 is countedG3049 forG1519 righteousnessG1343. 6Even asG2509 DavidG1138 alsoG2532 describethG3004 the blessednessG3588G3108 of the manG3588G444, unto whomG3739 GodG3588G2316 imputethG3049 righteousnessG1343 withoutG5565 worksG2041, 7Saying, BlessedG3107 are they whoseG3739 iniquitiesG3588G458 are forgivenG863, andG2532 whoseG3739 sinsG3588G266 are coveredG1943. 8BlessedG3107 is the manG435 to whomG3739 the LordG2962 willG3049 notG3361 imputeG3049 sinG266. 9

Cometh thisG3778 blessednessG3588G3108 thenG3767 uponG1909 the circumcisionG3588G4061 only, orG2228 uponG1909 the uncircumcisionG3588G203 alsoG2532? forG1063 we sayG3004 thatG3754 faithG3588G4102 was reckonedG3049 to AbrahamG11 forG1519 righteousnessG1343.
