1 # What <5101> shall we say <2046> (5692) then <3767> that Abraham <11> our <2257> father <3962> , as pertaining <2596> to the flesh <4561>, hath found <2147> (5760)?
2 For <1063> if <1487> Abraham <11> were justified <1344> (5681) by <1537> works <2041> , he hath <2192> (5719) whereof to glory <2745>; but <235> not <3756> before <4314> God <2316>.
3 For <1063> what <5101> saith <3004> (5719) the scripture <1124>? <1161> Abraham <11> believed <4100> (5656) God <2316>, and <2532> it was counted <3049> (5681) unto him <846> for <1519> righteousness <1343>.
4 Now <1161> to him that worketh <2038> (5740) is <3049> <0> the reward <3408> not <3756> reckoned <3049> (5736) of <2596> grace <5485>, but <235> of <2596> debt <3783>.
5 But <1161> to him that worketh <2038> (5740) not <3361>, but <1161> believeth <4100> (5723) on <1909> him that justifieth <1344> (5723) the ungodly <765>, his <846> faith <4102> is counted <3049> (5736) for <1519> righteousness <1343>.
6 Even as <2509> David <1138> also <2532> describeth <3004> (5719) the blessedness <3108> of the man <444>, unto whom <3739> God <2316> imputeth <3049> (5736) righteousness <1343> without <5565> works <2041> ,
7 Saying, Blessed <3107> are they whose <3739> iniquities <458> are forgiven <863> (5681), and <2532> whose <3739> sins <266> are covered <1943> (5681).
8 Blessed <3107> is the man <435> to whom <3739> the Lord <2962> will <3049> <0> not <3364> impute <3049> (5667) sin <266>.
9 # Cometh this <3778> blessedness <3108> then <3767> upon <1909> the circumcision <4061> only, or <2228> upon <1909> the uncircumcision <203> also <2532>? for <1063> we say <3004> (5719) that <3754> faith <4102> was reckoned <3049> (5681) to Abraham <11> for <1519> righteousness <1343>.
10 How <4459> was it <3049> <0> then <3767> reckoned <3049> (5681)? when he was <5607> (5752) in <1722> circumcision <4061>, or <2228> in <1722> uncircumcision <203>? Not <3756> in <1722> circumcision <4061>, but <235> in <1722> uncircumcision <203>.
11 And <2532> he received <2983> (5627) the sign <4592> of circumcision <4061>, a seal <4973> of the righteousness <1343> of the faith <4102> which <3588> he had yet being <1722> uncircumcised <203>: that <1519> he <846> might be <1511> (5750) the father <3962> of all <3956> them that believe <4100> (5723), though <1223> they be not circumcised <203>; that <1519> righteousness <1343> might be imputed <3049> (5683) unto them <846> also <2532>:
12 And <2532> the father <3962> of circumcision <4061> to them who are not <3756> of <1537> the circumcision <4061> only <3440>, but <235> who also <2532> walk <4748> (5723) in the steps <2487> of that faith <4102> of our <2257> father <3962> Abraham <11>, which he had being <1722> yet uncircumcised <203>.
13 For <1063> the promise <1860>, that he should be <1511> (5750) the <846> heir <2818> of the world <2889>, was not <3756> to Abraham <11>, or <2228> to his <846> seed <4690>, through <1223> the law <3551>, but <235> through <1223> the righteousness <1343> of faith <4102>.
14 For <1063> if <1487> they which are of <1537> the law <3551> be heirs <2818>, faith <4102> is made void <2758> (5769), and <2532> the promise <1860> made of none effect <2673> (5769):
15 Because <1063> the law <3551> worketh <2716> (5736) wrath <3709>: for <1063> where <3757> no <3756> law <3551> is <2076> (5748), there is no <3761> transgression <3847>.
16 Therefore <1223> <5124> it is of <1537> faith <4102>, that <2443> it might be by <2596> grace <5485>; to the end <1519> the promise <1860> might be <1511> (5750) sure <949> to all <3956> the seed <4690>; not <3756> to that only <3440> which is of <1537> the law <3551>, but <235> to that also <2532> which is of <1537> the faith <4102> of Abraham <11>; who <3739> is <2076> (5748) the father <3962> of us <2257> all <3956>,
17 # (As <2531> it is written <1125> (5769), <3754> I have made <5087> (5758) thee <4571> a father <3962> of many <4183> nations <1484>,) before <2713> him whom <3739> he believed <4100> (5656), even God <2316>, who quickeneth <2227> (5723) the dead <3498>, and <2532> calleth <2564> (5723) those things which be <5607> (5752) not <3361> as though <5613> they were <5607> (5752).
18 Who <3739> against <3844> hope <1680> believed <4100> (5656) in <1909> hope <1680>, that <1519> he <846> might become <1096> (5635) the father <3962> of many <4183> nations <1484>, according <2596> to that which was spoken <2046> (5772), So <3779> shall <2071> <0> thy <4675> seed <4690> be <2071> (5704).

19 And <2532> being not <3361> weak <770> (5660) in faith <4102>, he considered <2657> (5656) not <3756> his own <1438> body <4983> now <2235> dead <3499> (5772), when he was <5225> (5723) about <4225> an hundred years old <1541>, neither yet <2532> the deadness <3500> of Sara's <4564> womb <3388>:
20 <1161> He staggered <1252> (5681) not <3756> at <1519> the promise <1860> of God <2316> through unbelief <570>; but <235> was strong <1743> (5681) in faith <4102>, giving <1325> (5631) glory <1391> to God <2316>;
21 And <2532> being fully persuaded <4135> (5685) that <3754>, what <3739> he had promised <1861> (5766), he was <2076> (5748) able <1415> also <2532> to perform <4160> (5658).
22 And <2532> therefore <1352> it was imputed <3049> (5681) to him <846> for <1519> righteousness <1343>.
23 # Now <1161> it was <1125> <0> not <3756> written <1125> (5648) for his sake <1223> <846> alone <3440>, that <3754> it was imputed <3049> (5681) to him <846>;
24 But <235> for <1223> us <2248> also <2532>, to whom <3739> it shall be <3195> (5719) imputed <3049> (5745), if we believe <4100> (5723) on <1909> him that raised up <1453> (5660) Jesus <2424> our <2257> Lord <2962> from <1537> the dead <3498>;
25 Who <3739> was delivered <3860> (5681) for <1223> our <2257> offences <3900>, and <2532> was raised again <1453> (5681) for <1223> our <2257> justification <1347>.
