Red-Letter King James Bible 1769 Edition (KJV)

Romans 4

1 Abraham's faith was imputed to him for righteousness, 10 before he was circumcised. 13 By faith only he and his seed received the promise. 16 Abraham is the father of all that believe. 24 Our faith also shall be imputed to us for righteousness.

 4:1 ¶ What 5101 shall we say 2046 z5692 then 3767 that Abraham 11 our 2257 father, 3962 as pertaining 2596 to the flesh, 4561 hath found? 2147 z5760

 4:2 For 1063 if 1487 Abraham 11 were justified 1344 z5681 by 1537 works, 2041 he hath 2192 z5719 [whereof] to glory; 2745 but 235 not 3756 before 4314 God. 2316

 4:3 For 1063 what 5101 saith 3004 z5719 the x3588 scripture? 1124 1161 Abraham 11 believed 4100 z5656 God, 2316 and 2532 it was counted 3049 z5681 unto him 846 for 1519 righteousness. 1343

 4:4 Now 1161 to him that worketh 2038 z5740 is y3049 z0 the x3588 reward 3408 not 3756 reckoned 3049 z5736 of 2596 grace, 5485 but 235 of 2596 debt. 3783

 4:5 But 1161 to him that worketh 2038 z5740 not, 3361 but 1161 believeth 4100 z5723 on 1909 him that justifieth 1344 z5723 the x3588 ungodly, 765 his y846 x848 faith 4102 is counted 3049 z5736 for 1519 righteousness. 1343

 4:6 Even as 2509 David 1138 also 2532 describeth 3004 z5719 the x3588 blessedness 3108 of the x3588 man, 444 unto whom 3739 God 2316 imputeth 3049 z5736 righteousness 1343 without 5565 works, 2041

 4:7 [Saying], Blessed 3107 [are] they whose 3739 iniquities 458 are forgiven, 863 z5681 and 2532 whose 3739 sins 266 are covered. 1943 z5681

 4:8 Blessed 3107 [is] the man 435 to whom 3739 the Lord 2962 will y3049 z0 not 3364 impute 3049 z5667 sin. 266

 4:9 [Cometh] this 3778 blessedness y3108 x3107 then 3767 upon 1909 the x3588 circumcision 4061 [only], or 2228 upon 1909 the x3588 uncircumcision 203 also? 2532 for 1063 we say 3004 z5719 that 3754 faith 4102 was reckoned 3049 z5681 to Abraham 11 for 1519 righteousness. 1343

 4:10 How 4459 was it y3049 z0 then 3767 reckoned? 3049 z5681 when he was 5607 z5752 in 1722 circumcision, 4061 or 2228 in 1722 uncircumcision? 203 Not 3756 in 1722 circumcision, 4061 but 235 in 1722 uncircumcision. 203

 4:11 And 2532 he received 2983 z5627 the sign 4592 of circumcision, 4061 a seal 4973 of the x3588 righteousness 1343 of the x3588 faith 4102 which 3588 [he had yet] being y1722 uncircumcised: y203 that y1519 x1722 x203 he 846 might be 1511 z5750 the father 3962 of all 3956 them that believe, 4100 z5723 though y1223 they be not circumcised; 203 x1223 that y1519 righteousness 1343 might be imputed 3049 z5683 unto them 846 also: 2532

 4:12 And 2532 the father 3962 of circumcision 4061 to them x3588 who are not 3756 of 1537 the circumcision 4061 only, 3440 but 235 who also y2532 walk 4748 z5723 x2532 in the x3588 steps 2487 of that faith 4102 of our 2257 father 3962 Abraham, 11 which [he had] being y1722 [yet] uncircumcised. 203 x1722

 4:13 For 1063 the x3588 promise, 1860 that he x846 should be 1511 z5750 the y846 x3588 heir 2818 of the x3588 world, 2889 [was] not 3756 to Abraham, 11 or 2228 to his y846 x848 seed, 4690 through 1223 the law, 3551 but 235 through 1223 the righteousness 1343 of faith. 4102

 4:14 For 1063 if 1487 they x3588 which are of 1537 the law 3551 [be] heirs, 2818 faith 4102 is made void, 2758 z5769 and 2532 the x3588 promise 1860 made of none effect: 2673 z5769

 4:15 Because 1063 the x3588 law 3551 worketh 2716 z5736 wrath: 3709 for 1063 where 3757 no 3756 law 3551 is, 2076 z5748 [there is] no 3761 transgression. 3847

 4:16 Therefore 1223 5124 [it is] of 1537 faith, 4102 that 2443 [it might be] by 2596 grace; 5485 to the end y1519 the x3588 promise 1860 might be 1511 z5750 sure 949 to all 3956 the x3588 seed; 4690 not 3756 to that x3588 only 3440 which is of 1537 the x3588 law, 3551 but 235 to that x3588 also 2532 which is of 1537 the faith 4102 of Abraham; 11 who 3739 is 2076 z5748 the father 3962 of us 2257 all, 3956

 4:17 (As 2531 it is written, 1125 z5769 y3754 I have made 5087 z5758 thee 4571 a father 3962 of many 4183 nations,) 1484 before 2713 him whom 3739 he believed, 4100 z5656 [even] God, 2316 who quickeneth 2227 z5723 the x3588 dead, 3498 and y2532 x2564 calleth 2564 z5723 those things which be 5607 z5752 not 3361 as though 5613 they were. 5607 z5752

 4:18 Who 3739 against 3844 hope 1680 believed 4100 z5656 in 1909 hope, 1680 that y1519 he 846 might become 1096 z5635 the father 3962 of many 4183 nations, 1484 according 2596 to that which was spoken, 2046 z5772 So 3779 shall y2071 z0 thy 4675 seed 4690 be. 2071 z5704

 4:19 And 2532 being not y3361 weak 770 z5660 x3361 in faith, 4102 he considered 2657 z5656 not 3756 his own 1438 body 4983 now 2235 dead, 3499 z5772 when he was 5225 z5723 about 4225 an hundred years old, 1541 neither x2532 yet y2532 the x3588 deadness 3500 of Sara's 4564 womb: 3388

 4:20 y1161 He x1161 staggered 1252 z5681 not 3756 at 1519 the x3588 promise 1860 of God 2316 through unbelief; 570 but 235 was strong 1743 z5681 in faith, 4102 giving 1325 z5631 glory 1391 to God; 2316

 4:21 And 2532 being fully persuaded 4135 z5685 that, 3754 what 3739 he had promised, 1861 z5766 he was 2076 z5748 able 1415 also 2532 to perform. 4160 z5658

 4:22 And 2532 therefore 1352 it was imputed 3049 z5681 to him 846 for 1519 righteousness. 1343

 4:23 Now 1161 it was y1125 z0 not 3756 written 1125 z5648 for his sake 1223 846 alone, 3440 that 3754 it was imputed 3049 z5681 to him; 846

 4:24 But 235 for 1223 us 2248 also, 2532 to whom 3739 it shall x3195 be y3195 z5719 imputed, 3049 z5745 if we x3588 believe 4100 z5723 on 1909 him that raised up 1453 z5660 Jesus 2424 our 2257 Lord 2962 from 1537 the dead; 3498

 4:25 Who 3739 was delivered 3860 z5681 for 1223 our 2257 offences, 3900 and 2532 was raised again 1453 z5681 for 1223 our 2257 justification. 1347
