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.”
