Roma 4:3

4:3 For what does the scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited ¹  to him as righteousness.” ² 

Roma 4:5-6

4:5 But to the one who does not work, but believes in the one who declares the ungodly righteous, ³  his faith is credited as righteousness.

4:6 So even David himself speaks regarding the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:

Roma 4:9

4:9 Is this blessedness ⁴  then for ⁵  the circumcision ⁶  or also for ⁷  the uncircumcision? For we say, “faith was credited to Abraham as righteousness.” ⁸ 

Roma 4:11

4:11 And he received the sign of circumcision as a seal of the righteousness that he had by faith while he was still uncircumcised, ⁹  so that he would become ¹⁰  the father of all those who believe but have never been circumcised, ¹¹  that they too could have righteousness credited to them.

Roma 4:22

4:22 So indeed it was credited to Abraham ¹²  as righteousness.

Roma 4:24

4:24 but also for our sake, to whom it will be credited, those who believe in the one who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead.
