Romans 3:27-4:8

21st Century King James Version

²⁷ Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? Nay, but by the law of faith.

²⁸ Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law.

²⁹ Is He the God of the Jews only? Is He not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also,

³⁰ seeing it is one God who shall justify the Circumcision by faith, and Uncircumcision through faith.

³¹ Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid! Yea, we establish the law.

4 What shall we say then that Abraham our father hath found pertaining to the flesh?

² For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath reason to glory, but not before God.

³ For what saith the Scripture? “Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.”

⁴ Now to him that worketh, his reward is reckoned not according to grace, but according to debt.

⁵ But to him that worketh not, but believeth in Him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness,

⁶ even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works, saying,

⁷ “Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven and whose sins are covered.

⁸ Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.”
