Romans 4:19-25
Christian Standard Bible
19 He did not weaken in faith when he considered[a] his own body to be already dead(A) (since he was about a hundred years old)(B) and also the deadness of Sarah’s womb.(C) 20 He did not waver in unbelief at God’s promise but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God,(D) 21 because he was fully convinced(E) that what God had promised, he was also able to do.(F) 22 Therefore, it was credited to him for righteousness.[b](G) 23 Now it was credited to him[c] was not written for Abraham alone,(H) 24 but also for us. It will be credited to us who believe in him(I) who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead.(J) 25 He was delivered up for[d] our trespasses(K) and raised for our justification.(L)

Romans 4:19-25
International Standard Version
19 His faith did not weaken when he thought about his own body (which was already[a] as good as dead now that he was about a hundred years old) or about Sarah’s inability to have children, 20 nor did he doubt God’s promise out of a lack of faith. Instead, his faith became stronger and he gave glory to God, 21 being absolutely convinced that God would do what he had promised. 22 This is why “it was credited to him as righteousness.”[b]
23 Now the words “it was credited to him” were written not only for him 24 but also for us. Our faith will be regarded in the same way,[c] if we believe in the one who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. 25 He was sentenced to death because of our sins and raised to life to justify us.
