Romans 4:5-8
New King James Version
David Celebrates the Same Truth
5 But to him who (A)does not work but believes on Him who justifies (B)the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness, 6 just as David also (C)describes the blessedness of the man to whom God imputes righteousness apart from works:
7 “Blessed(D) are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven,
And whose sins are covered;
8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord shall not impute sin.”
Romans 4:5-8
Lexham English Bible
5 But to the one who does not work, but who believes in the one who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited for righteousness, 6 just as David also speaks about the blessing of the person to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:
7 “Blessed are they whose lawless deeds have been forgiven,
and whose sins are covered over.
8 Blessed is the person against whom the Lord will never count sin.”[a]
