4. Now to the one who works, his pay is not credited according to grace, but according to his due.
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.”
9. Therefore, is this blessing for those who are circumcised, or also for those who are uncircumcised? For we say, “Faith was credited to Abraham for righteousness.”
10. How then was it credited? While he was circumcised or uncircumcised? Not while circumcised but while uncircumcised!
