ROM 4:1
Romans 4:1
|
|
What shall we say then that Abraham our father,
as pertaining to the flesh, hath found? |
|
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:2
Romans 4:2
|
|
For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath
whereof to glory; but not before God. |
| |
|
|
|
ROM 4:3
Romans 4:3
|
|
For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed
God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. |
| |
|
|
|
ROM 4:4
Romans 4:4
|
|
Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned
of grace, but of debt. |
| |
|
|
|
ROM 4:5
Romans 4:5
|
|
But to him that worketh not, but believeth on
him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. |
| |
|
|
|
ROM 4:6
Romans 4:6
|
|
Even as David also describeth the blessedness
of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works, |
| |
|
|
|
ROM 4:7
Romans 4:7
|
|
Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are
forgiven, and whose sins are covered. |
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:8
Romans 4:8
|
|
Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not
impute sin. |
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:9
Romans 4:9
|
|
Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision
only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham
for righteousness. |
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:10
Romans 4:10
|
|
How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision,
or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision. |
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:11
Romans 4:11
|
|
And he received the sign of circumcision, a
seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that
he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised;
that righteousness might be imputed unto them also: |
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:12
Romans 4:12
|
|
And the father of circumcision to them who are
not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of
our father Abraham, which he had being yet uncircumcised. |
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:13
Romans 4:13
|
|
For the promise, that he should be the heir
of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through
the righteousness of faith. |
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:14
Romans 4:14
|
|
For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith
is made void, and the promise made of none effect: |
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:15
Romans 4:15
|
|
Because the law worketh wrath: for where no
law is, there is no transgression. |
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:16
Romans 4:16
|
|
Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by
grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; 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, |
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:17
Romans 4:17
|
|
(As it is written, I have made thee a father
of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead,
and calleth those things which be not as though they were. |
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:18
Romans 4:18
|
|
Who against hope believed in hope, that he might
become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall
thy seed be. |
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:19
Romans 4:19
|
|
And being not weak in faith, he considered not
his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the
deadness of Sarah's womb: |
| |
|
|
|
ROM 4:20
Romans 4:20
|
|
He staggered not at the promise of God through
unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; |
| |
|
|
|
ROM 4:21
Romans 4:21
|
|
And being fully persuaded that, what he had
promised, he was able also to perform. |
|
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:22
Romans 4:22
|
|
And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness. |
|
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:23
Romans 4:23
|
|
Now it was not written for his sake alone, that
it was imputed to him; |
|
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:24
Romans 4:24
|
|
But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed,
if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; |
|
|
|
|
|
ROM 4:25
Romans 4:25
|
|
Who was delivered for our offences, and was
raised again for our justification. |
