Romans 4:1-4
21st Century King James Version
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.
