5 But to him who (B)does not work but believes on Him who justifies (C)the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness, 6 just as David also (D)describes the blessedness of the man to whom God imputes righteousness apart from works:
7 “Blessed(E) 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.”
