Roma 4:9

4:9 Is this blessedness ¹  then for ²  the circumcision ³  or also for ⁴  the uncircumcision? For we say, “faith was credited to Abraham as righteousness.” ⁵ 

Roma 4:20-22

4:20 He ⁶  did not waver in unbelief about the promise of God but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God. 4:21 He was ⁷  fully convinced that what God ⁸  promised he was also able to do. 4:22 So indeed it was credited to Abraham ⁹  as righteousness.

[4:9]  ¹ tn Or “happiness.”

[4:9]  ² tn Grk “upon.”

[4:9]  ³ sn See the note on “circumcision” in 2:25.

[4:9]  ⁴ tn Grk “upon.”

[4:9]  ⁵ sn A quotation from Gen 15:6.

[4:20]  ⁶ tn Grk “And he.” Because of the difference between Greek style, which often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” and English style, which generally does not, δέ (de) has not been translated here.

[4:21]  ⁷ tn Grk “and being.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[4:21]  ⁸ tn Grk “he”; the referent (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[4:22]  ⁹ tn Grk “him”; the referent (Abraham) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
