1: WhatG5101 thenG3767 shall we sayG2046 discoveredG2147 Abraham,G0011 theG3588 fatherG3962 of us,G1473 according toG2596 [the] flesh?G4561

2: IfG1487 forG1063 AbrahamG0011 byG1537 worksG2041 was justified,G1344 he hasG2192 ground of boasting,G2745 butG0235 notG3756 towardG4314 God.G2316

3: WhatG5101 forG1063 theG3588 ScriptureG1124 says?G3004 BelievedG4100 thenG1161 AbrahamG0011 -G3588 God,G2316 andG2532 it was reckonedG3049 to himG0846 forG1519 righteousness.G1343

4: To the [one]G3588 nowG1161 working,G2038 theG3588 rewardG3408 notG3756 is reckonedG3049 according toG2596 grace,G5485 butG0235 according toG2596 debt.G3783

5: To the [one]G3588 howeverG1161 notG3361 working,G2038 believingG4100 howeverG1161 onG1909 the [One]G3588 justifyingG1344 theG3588 ungodly,G0765 is reckonedG3049 theG3588 faithG4102 of himG0846 forG1519 righteousness,G1343

6: just asG2509 alsoG2532 DavidG1138 declaresG3004 theG3588 blessednessG3108 of theG3588 manG0444 to whomG3739 -G3588 GodG2316 creditsG3049 righteousnessG1343 apart fromG5565 works:G2041

7: BlessedG3107 [are they] of whomG3739 are forgivenG0863 theG3588 lawless deeds,G0458 andG2532 of whomG3739 are coveredG1943 theG3588 sins;G0266

8: blessedG3107 [the] manG0435 against whomG3739 noG3756 notG3361 will reckonG3049 [the] LordG2962 sin.G0266

9: [Is] theG3588 blessingG3108 thenG3767 thisG3778 onG1909 theG3588 circumcision,G4061 orG2228 alsoG2532 onG1909 theG3588 uncircumcision?G0203 We are sayingG3004 forG1063 was creditedG3049 -G3588 to AbrahamG0011 theG3588 faithG4102 asG1519 righteousness.G1343

10: HowG4459 thenG3767 was it credited?G3049 InG1722 circumcisionG4061 being,G1510 orG2228 inG1722 uncircumcision?G0203 NotG3756 inG1722 circumcision,G4061 butG0235 inG1722 uncircumcision.G0203

11: AndG2532 [the] signG4592 he receivedG2983 of circumcision,G4061 a sealG4973 of theG3588 righteousnessG1343 of theG3588 faithG4102 that [he had]G3588 [while] inG1722 theG3588 uncircumcision,G0203 forG1519 theG3588 to beG1510 himG0846 fatherG3962 of allG3956 thoseG3588 believing,G4100 inG1223 uncircumcision,G0203 forG1519 -G3588 to be creditedG3049 alsoG2532 to themG0846 theG3588 righteousness,G1343

12: andG2532 fatherG3962 of circumcisionG4061 to thoseG3588 notG3756 ofG1537 circumcisionG4061 only,G3440 butG0235 alsoG2532 to thoseG3588 walkingG4748 in theG3588 stepsG2487 of theG3588 duringG1722 uncircumcisionG0203 faithG4102 of theG3588 fatherG3962 of us,G1473 Abraham.G0011

13: NotG3756 forG1063 throughG1223 [the] LawG3551 theG3588 promise [was]G1860 -G3588 to AbrahamG0011 orG2228 theG3588 descendantsG4690 of himG0846 thatG3588 heirG2818 heG0846 should beG1510 [of the] world,G2889 butG0235 throughG1223 [the] righteousnessG1343 of faith.G4102

14: IfG1487 forG1063 thoseG3588 ofG1537 [the] Law [are]G3551 heirs,G2818 has been made voidG2758 -G3588 faith,G4102 andG2532 made of no effectG2673 theG3588 promise.G1860

15: -G3588 ForG1063 lawG3551 wrathG3709 brings;G2716 whereG3757 nowG1161 noG3756 there isG1510 law,G3551 neither [is]G3761 transgression.G3847

16: ThereforeG1223 it [is]G3778 ofG1537 faith,G4102 that [it may be]G2443 according toG2596 grace,G5485 forG1519 -G3588 to beG1510 sureG0949 theG3588 promiseG1860 to allG3956 theG3588 seed,G4690 notG3756 to thatG3588 ofG1537 theG3588 lawG3551 only,G3440 butG0235 alsoG2532 to thatG3588 of [the]G1537 faithG4102 of Abraham,G0011 whoG3739 isG1510 [the] fatherG3962 of allG3956 of us—G1473

17: asG2531 it has been writtenG1125 -:G3754 A fatherG3962 of manyG4183 nationsG1484 I have madeG5087 you.G4771 beforeG2713 whomG3739 he believedG4100 God,G2316 the [One]G3588 giving lifeG2227 to theG3588 deadG3498 andG2532 callingG2564 the thingsG3588 notG3361 [into] beingG1510 evenG5613 existing,G1510

18: whoG3739 againstG3844 hope,G1680 inG1909 hopeG1680 believed,G4100 forG1519 -G3588 to becomeG1096 himG0846 [the] fatherG3962 of manyG4183 nations,G1484 according toG2596 thatG3588 having been spoken,G2046 SoG3779 shall beG1510 theG3588 offspringG4690 of you.G4771

19: AndG2532 notG3361 having become weakG0770 in theG3588 faith,G4102 he consideredG2657 -G3588 of himselfG1438 the bodyG4983 alreadyG2235 having become dead,G3499 a hundred years oldG1541 aboutG4225 being,G5225 andG2532 theG3588 lifelessnessG3500 of theG3588 wombG3388 of Sarah.G4564

20: AtG1519 howeverG1161 theG3588 promiseG1860 -G3588 of God,G2316 notG3756 he did waverG1252 -G3588 through unbelief,G0570 butG0235 was strengthenedG1743 -G3588 in faith,G4102 having givenG1325 gloryG1391 -G3588 to God,G2316

21: andG2532 having been fully assuredG4135 thatG3754 whatG3739 He had promised,G1861 ableG1415 He isG1510 alsoG2532 to do.G4160

22: ThereforeG1352 alsoG2532 it was creditedG3049 to himG0846 untoG1519 righteousness.G1343

23: NotG3756 it was writtenG1125 nowG1161 on account ofG1223 himG0846 aloneG3440 thatG3754 it was creditedG3049 to him,G0846

24: butG0235 alsoG2532 on account ofG1223 us,G1473 to whomG3739 it is aboutG3195 to be credited,G3049 to thoseG3588 believingG4100 onG1909 the [One]G3588 having raisedG1453 JesusG2424 theG3588 LordG2962 of usG1473 out fromG1537 [the] dead,G3498

25: whoG3739 was delivered overG3860 forG1223 theG3588 trespassesG3900 of us,G1473 andG2532 was raisedG1453 forG1223 theG3588 justificationG1347 of us.G1473
