    16Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end that the promise might be sure to all the descendants; not to those only who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all,

    17As it is written, I have made you a father of many nations, before him whom he believed, even God, who gives life to the dead, and calls those things which do not exist as though they did.

    18Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to what was spoken, So shall your descendants be.

    19And being not weak in faith, he did not consider his own body, already dead, being about a hundred years old, nor the deadness of Sarah's womb.

    20He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strong in faith, giving glory to God.

    21And being fully convinced that what He had promised, He was able also to perform.

    22And therefore it was credited to him for righteousness.

    1What shall we say then that Abraham our father has found according to the flesh?

    2For if Abraham was justified by works, he has reason to boast; but not before God.

    3For what does the scripture say? Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him for righteousness.

    4Now to him who works, the reward is not given of grace, but as a debt.

    5But to him who does not work, but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

    6Even as David also describes the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works,

    7Saying, Blessed are those whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.

    8Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not credit sin.

    9Does this blessedness then come upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? For we say that faith was credited to Abraham for righteousness.

    10How was it then credited? When he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.

    11And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while still uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all those who believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be credited to them also;

    12And the father of circumcision to those who are not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had while still uncircumcised.

    13For the promise that he should be the heir of the world was not to Abraham, or to his descendants, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.

    24You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.
