But to the one who does not work, but (A)believes upon Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness, just as David also speaks of the blessing on the man to whom God counts righteousness apart from works:

(B)Blessed are those whose lawless deeds have been forgiven,
And whose sins have been covered.
(C)Blessed is the man whose sin the [a]Lord will not (D)take into account.”

  1. Romans 4:8 In OT, Yahweh, cf. Ps 32:2

But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is reckoned for righteousness. Even as David also pronounceth blessing upon the man, unto whom God reckoneth righteousness apart from works, saying,

[a]Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven,
And whose sins are covered.
Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not reckon sin.
