Galatians 3:21-25
New King James Version
21 Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness would have been by the law. 22 But the Scripture has confined (A)all under sin, (B)that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe. 23 But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, [a]kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed. 24 Therefore (C)the law was our [b]tutor to bring us to Christ, (D)that we might be justified by faith. 25 But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.

David Celebrates the Same Truth
5 But to him who (A)does not work but believes on Him who justifies (B)the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness, 6 just as David also (C)describes the blessedness of the man to whom God imputes righteousness apart from works:
7 “Blessed(D) are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven,
And whose sins are covered;
8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord shall not impute sin.”
Romans 4:5-8

5 However, to the one who does not work but trusts God who justifies the ungodly, their faith is credited as righteousness.(A) 6 David says the same thing when he speaks of the blessedness of the one to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:
