Romans 4:8-10
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
8 Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord does not record.”
9 Does this blessedness[a] apply only to the circumcised, or to the uncircumcised as well? Now we assert that “faith was credited to Abraham as righteousness.”(A) 10 Under what circumstances was it credited? Was he circumcised or not? He was not circumcised, but uncircumcised.
