1. What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found?
|
1. What G5101 shall we say G2046 then G3767 that Abraham G11 our G2257 father G3962 , as pertaining G2596 to the flesh G4561 , hath found G2147 ?
|
|
2. For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but not before God.
|
2. For G1063 if G1487 Abraham G11 were justified G1344 by G1537 works G2041 , he hath G2192 whereof to glory G2745 ; but G235 not G3756 before G4314 God G2316 .
|
|
3. For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.
|
3. For G1063 what G5101 saith G3004 the G3588 Scripture G1124 G1161 ? Abraham G11 believed G4100 God G2316 , and G2532 it was counted G3049 unto him G846 for G1519 righteousness G1343 .
|
|
4. Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
|
4. Now G1161 to him that worketh G2038 is the G3588 reward G3408 not G3756 reckoned G3049 of G2596 grace G5485 , but G235 of G2596 debt G3783 .
|
|
5. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
|
5. But G1161 to him that worketh G2038 not G3361 , but G1161 believeth G4100 on G1909 him that justifieth G1344 the G3588 ungodly G765 , his G848 faith G4102 is counted G3049 for G1519 righteousness G1343 .
|
|
6. Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,
|
6. Even as G2509 David G1138 also G2532 describeth G3004 the G3588 blessedness G3108 of the G3588 man G444 , unto whom G3739 God G2316 imputeth G3049 righteousness G1343 without G5565 works G2041 ,
|
|
7. Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
|
7. Saying, Blessed G3107 are they whose G3739 iniquities G458 are forgiven G863 , and G2532 whose G3739 sins G266 are covered G1943 .
|
|
8. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
|
8. Blessed G3107 is the man G435 to whom G3739 the Lord G2962 will not G3364 impute G3049 sin G266 .
|
|
9. Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.
|
9. Cometh this G3778 blessedness G3108 then G3767 upon G1909 the G3588 circumcision G4061 only, or G2228 upon G1909 the G3588 uncircumcision G203 also G2532 ? for G1063 we say G3004 that G3754 faith G4102 was reckoned G3049 to Abraham G11 for G1519 righteousness G1343 .
|
|
10. How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.
|
10. How G4459 was it then G3767 reckoned G3049 ? when he was G5607 in G1722 circumcision G4061 , or G2228 in G1722 uncircumcision G203 ? Not G3756 in G1722 circumcision G4061 , but G235 in G1722 uncircumcision G203 .
|
|
11. And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also:
|
11. And G2532 he received G2983 the sign G4592 of circumcision G4061 , a seal G4973 of the G3588 righteousness G1343 of the G3588 faith G4102 which G3588 he had yet being uncircumcised: that G1722 G203 he G846 might be G1511 the father G3962 of all G3956 them that believe G4100 , though they be not circumcised G1223 G203 ; that righteousness G1343 might be imputed G3049 unto them G846 also G2532 :
|
|
12. And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had being yet uncircumcised.
|
12. And G2532 the father G3962 of circumcision G4061 to them G3588 who are not G3756 of G1537 the circumcision G4061 only G3440 , but G235 who also walk G4748 G2532 in the G3588 steps G2487 of that faith G4102 of our G2257 father G3962 Abraham G11 , which he had being yet uncircumcised G1722 G203 .
|
|
13. For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
|
13. For G1063 the G3588 promise G1860 , that he G846 should be G1511 the G3588 heir G2818 of the G3588 world G2889 , was not G3756 to Abraham G11 , or G2228 to his G848 seed G4690 , through G1223 the law G3551 , but G235 through G1223 the righteousness G1343 of faith G4102 .
|
|
14. For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect:
|
14. For G1063 if G1487 they G3588 which are of G1537 the law G3551 be heirs G2818 , faith G4102 is made void G2758 , and G2532 the G3588 promise G1860 made of none effect G2673 :
|
|
15. Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression.
|
15. Because G1063 the G3588 law G3551 worketh G2716 wrath G3709 : for G1063 where G3757 no G3756 law G3551 is G2076 , there is no G3761 transgression G3847 .
|
|
16. Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,
|
16. Therefore G1223 G5124 it is of G1537 faith G4102 , that G2443 it might be by G2596 grace G5485 ; to the end the G3588 promise G1860 might be G1511 sure G949 to all G3956 the G3588 seed G4690 ; not G3756 to that G3588 only G3440 which is of G1537 the G3588 law G3551 , but G235 to that G3588 also G2532 which is of G1537 the faith G4102 of Abraham G11 ; who G3739 is G2076 the father G3962 of us G2257 all G3956 ,
|
|
17. As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
|
17. ( As G2531 it is written G1125 , I have made G5087 thee G4571 a father G3962 of many G4183 nations G1484 ,) before G2713 him whom G3739 he believed G4100 , even God G2316 , who quickeneth G2227 the G3588 dead G3498 , and G2532 calleth G2564 those things which be G5607 not G3361 as though G5613 they were G5607 .
|
|
18. Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.
|
18. Who G3739 against G3844 hope G1680 believed G4100 in G1909 hope G1680 , that he G846 might become G1096 the father G3962 of many G4183 nations G1484 , according G2596 to that which was spoken G2046 , So G3779 shall thy G4675 seed G4690 be G2071 .
|
|
19. And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara's womb:
|
19. And G2532 being not weak G770 G3361 in faith G4102 , he considered G2657 not G3756 his own G1438 body G4983 now G2235 dead G3499 , when he was G5225 about G4225 a hundred years old G1541 , neither G2532 yet the G3588 deadness G3500 of Sarah G4564 's womb G3388 :
|
|
20. He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;
|
20. He G1161 staggered G1252 not G3756 at G1519 the G3588 promise G1860 of God G2316 through unbelief G570 ; but G235 was strong G1743 in faith G4102 , giving G1325 glory G1391 to God G2316 ;
|
|
21. And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.
|
21. And G2532 being fully persuaded G4135 that G3754 , what G3739 he had promised G1861 , he was G2076 able G1415 also G2532 to perform G4160 .
|
|
22. And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.
|
22. And G2532 therefore G1352 it was imputed G3049 to him G846 for G1519 righteousness G1343 .
|
|
23. Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him;
|
23. Now G1161 it was not G3756 written G1125 for his sake G1223 G846 alone G3440 , that G3754 it was imputed G3049 to him G846 ;
|
|
24. But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;
|
24. But G235 for G1223 us G2248 also G2532 , to whom G3739 it shall G3195 be imputed G3049 , if we G3588 believe G4100 on G1909 him that raised up G1453 Jesus G2424 our G2257 Lord G2962 from G1537 the dead G3498 ;
|
|
25. Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.
|
25. Who G3739 was delivered G3860 for G1223 our G2257 offenses G3900 , and G2532 was raised again G1453 for G1223 our G2257 justification G1347 .
