RF ROM 4:1 (Jew.) "What shell we say, then, that our ancestor Abraham attained to in the course of his life.
RF ROM 4:2 For if Abraham were made righteous by rituals, he had ground for boasting."
RF ROM 4:3 (Paul.) "But not before God! For what says the Scripture? ABRAHAM TRUSTED TO GOD, AND IT WAS PAID TO HIM IN RIGHTEOUSNESS.1
RF ROM 4:4 But to a labourer the wages are not paid as a kindness, but as a debt;
RF ROM 4:5 while to him who practiced no ritual, but confided on Him Who makes the sinful righteous, his faith was paid with righteousness.
RF ROM 4:6 As David, indeed, also relates the happiness of the man to whom God grants righteousness apart from rituals:
RF ROM 4:7 THEY ARE HAPPY WHOSE VIOLATIONS OF THE LAW ARE FORGIVEN, AND WHOSE SINS ARE OBLITERATED;
RF ROM 4:8 HAPPY THE MAN WHOSE SINS THE LORD WILL NOT REPAY.2
RF ROM 4:9 "This happiness, therefore, belongs to the circumcised and the pagan; for we argue that to Abraham his faith was repaid with righteousness."
RF ROM 4:10 (Jew.) "But when was it repaid? Under circumcision, or while uncircumcised "
(Paul.) "Not in circumcision, but while uncircumcised;

RF ROM 4:11 and he received a token by circumcision, an evidence of his faithful righteousness while not circumcised, so that he might be the father of all uncircumcised believers, to whom righteousness will also be granted;
RF ROM 4:12 and a father of circumcision, not only to those simply circumcised, but to all arranging themselves in the path of the faith of our uncircumcised ancestor Abraham.
RF ROM 4:13 For the promise, that he should inherit the world, was not given through a ritual to Abraham or to his race; but through a righteous faith.
RF ROM 4:14 For if they inherited through a ritual, the faith would be nullified, and the promise abolished."
RF ROM 4:15 (Jew.) "However, the law abolished anger?"
( Paul.) "Yet where there is no law, there is no transgression of it.
RF ROM 4:16 Therefore it springs from faith, coinciding with a gift, so as to confirm the promise to all his race; not to those through the law only, but also to those of Abraham's faith, who is the father of us all.
RF ROM 4:17 As it is recorded: I HAVE APPOINTED YOU A FATHER OF MANY NATIONS,1 in the sight Of God in Whom he trusted, Who restores the dead to life, and names the non-existent as if existent.
RF ROM 4:18 Who trusted on hope against hope that he would be the father of many nations; according to the expression, THUS SHALL YOUR RACE BE.2
RF ROM 4:19 And, not weak in faith, he regarded not his own body already deadened, when he was nearly a hundred years old, nor the barrenness of Sarah!
RF ROM 4:20 Nor did he doubtingly criticize the promise of God; but was strong in faith, giving praise to God,
RF ROM 4:21 and was perfectly satisfied that what He promised He could also perform:
RF ROM 4:22 and therefore he was paid with righteousness.
RF ROM 4:23 But it was not recorded for him only that it was so paid to him,
RF ROM 4:24 but also for us to whom it will be granted; to us, the believers on Him Who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead,
RF ROM 4:25 Who was betrayed through our sins, and raised for our righteousness.
