Romans 4:5-8
Legacy Standard Bible
5 But to the one who does not work, but (A)believes upon Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness, 6 just as David also speaks of the blessing on the man to whom God counts righteousness apart from works:
7 “(B)Blessed are those whose lawless deeds have been forgiven,
And whose sins have been covered.
8 (C)Blessed is the man whose sin the [a]Lord will not (D)take into account.”

Romans 4:5-8
New Living Translation
5 But people are counted as righteous, not because of their work, but because of their faith in God who forgives sinners. 6 David also spoke of this when he described the happiness of those who are declared righteous without working for it:
7 “Oh, what joy for those
whose disobedience is forgiven,
whose sins are put out of sight.
8 Yes, what joy for those
whose record the Lord has cleared of sin.”[a]
