Romans 4:5-8
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
5 But to one who does not work but trusts him who justifies the ungodly, such faith is reckoned as righteousness. 6 So also David pronounces a blessing on those to whom God reckons righteousness apart from works:
7 “Blessed are those whose iniquities are forgiven
and whose sins are covered;(A)
8 blessed is the one against whom the Lord will not reckon sin.”
Romans 4:5-8
English Standard Version
5 And to the one who does not work but (A)believes in[a] him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness, 6 just as David also speaks of the blessing of the one to whom God counts righteousness apart from works:
7 (B)“Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven,
and whose sins are covered;
8 blessed is the man against whom the Lord will not (C)count his sin.”
