Romans 4

1 What then will we say to have discovered Abraham the (ancestor *N+KO) of us according to [the] flesh?

τι ουν ερουμεν αβρααμ τον πατερα ημων ευρηκεναι κατα σαρκα

2 If for Abraham by works was justified, he has ground of boasting but not toward God.

ει γαρ αβρααμ εξ εργων εδικαιωθη εχει καυχημα αλλ ου προς τον θεον

3 What for the Scripture says? Believed then Abraham in God, and it was reckoned to him for righteousness.

τι γαρ η γραφη λεγει επιστευσεν δε αβρααμ τω θεω και ελογισθη αυτω εις δικαιοσυνην

4 To the [one] now working the reward not is reckoned according to grace but according to debt;

τω δε εργαζομενω ο μισθος ου λογιζεται κατα χαριν αλλα κατα οφειλημα

5 To the [one] however not working, believing however on the [One] justifying the ungodly, is reckoned the faith of him for righteousness.

τω δε μη εργαζομενω πιστευοντι δε επι τον δικαιουντα τον ασεβη λογιζεται η πιστις αυτου εις δικαιοσυνην

6 just as also David declares the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:

καθαπερ και δαυιδ λεγει τον μακαρισμον του ανθρωπου ω ο θεος λογιζεται δικαιοσυνην χωρις εργων

7 Blessed [are] they of whom are forgiven the lawless deeds and of whom are covered the sins;

μακαριοι ων αφεθησαν αι ανομιαι και ων επεκαλυφθησαν αι αμαρτιαι

8 blessed [is] [the] man (of whom *N+kO) certainly not may reckon [the] Lord sin.

μακαριος ανηρ ω ου μη λογισηται κυριος αμαρτιαν

9 [Is] the blessing then this on the circumcision or also on the uncircumcision? We are saying for (that: *k) was credited to Abraham the faith as righteousness.

ο μακαρισμος ουν ουτος επι την περιτομην η και επι την ακροβυστιαν λεγομεν γαρ οτι ελογισθη τω αβρααμ η πιστις εις δικαιοσυνην

10 How then was it credited? In circumcision being or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision but in uncircumcision;

πως ουν ελογισθη εν περιτομη οντι η εν ακροβυστια ουκ εν περιτομη αλλ εν ακροβυστια

11 And [the] sign he received of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith that [he had] [while] in the uncircumcision; for the to be him father of all those believing in uncircumcision, for to be credited also to them the righteousness,

και σημειον ελαβεν περιτομης σφραγιδα της δικαιοσυνης της πιστεως της εν τη ακροβυστια εις το ειναι αυτον πατερα παντων των πιστευοντων δι ακροβυστιας εις το λογισθηναι και αυτοις την δικαιοσυνην

12 and father of circumcision to those not of circumcision only but also to those walking in the steps during (the *k) uncircumcision (of the *k) faith of the father of us Abraham.

και πατερα περιτομης τοις ουκ εκ περιτομης μονον αλλα και τοις στοιχουσιν τοις ιχνεσιν της εν [ τη ] ακροβυστια πιστεως του πατρος ημων αβρααμ

13 Not for through [the] Law [was] the promise to Abraham or to the descendants of him that heir he being (of the *k) world but through [the] righteousness of faith.

ου γαρ δια νομου η επαγγελια τω αβρααμ η τω σπερματι αυτου το κληρονομον αυτον ειναι του κοσμου αλλα δια δικαιοσυνης πιστεως

14 If for those of [the] Law [are] heirs, has been made void faith and has been nullified the promise;

ει γαρ οι εκ νομου κληρονομοι κεκενωται η πιστις και κατηργηται η επαγγελια

15 For law wrath brings; where (now *N+kO) no there is law, neither [is] transgression.

ο γαρ νομος οργην κατεργαζεται ου γαρ ουκ εστιν νομος ουδε παραβασις

16 Therefore it [is] of faith, that [it may be] according to grace, for to be sure the promise to all the seed, not to that of the law only but also to that of [the] faith of Abraham, who is [the] father of all of us —

δια τουτο εκ πιστεως ινα κατα χαριν εις το ειναι βεβαιαν την επαγγελιαν παντι τω σπερματι ου τω εκ [ του ] νομου μονον αλλα και τω εκ πιστεως αβρααμ ος εστιν πατηρ παντων ημων

17 even as it has been written that A father of many nations I have made you, before whom he believed God, who is giving life to the dead and calling the [things] not [into] being as existing;

καθως γεγραπται οτι πατερα πολλων εθνων τεθεικα σε κατεναντι ου επιστευσεν θεου του ζωοποιουντος τους νεκρους και καλουντος τα μη οντα ως οντα

18 who against hope in hope believed for to become him [the] father of many nations according to that spoken; So will be the offspring of you;

ος παρ ελπιδα επ ελπιδι επιστευσεν εις το γενεσθαι αυτον πατερα πολλων εθνων κατα το ειρημενον ουτως εσται το σπερμα σου

19 And not having become weak in the faith (not *K) he considered his own body already expired, a hundred years old about being, and the lifelessness of the womb of Sarah,

και μη ασθενησας τη πιστει ου κατενοησεν το εαυτου σωμα ηδη νενεκρωμενον εκατονταετης που υπαρχων και την νεκρωσιν μητρας σαρρας

20 About however the promise of God not he did waver through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, having given glory to God

εις δε την επαγγελιαν του θεου ου διεκριθη τη απιστια αλλ ενεδυναμωθη τη πιστει δους δοξαν τω θεω

21 and having been fully assured that what He has promised able He is also to do;

και πληροφορηθεις οτι ο επηγγελται δυνατος εστιν και ποιησαι

22 Therefore also it was credited to him unto righteousness.

διο και ελογισθη αυτω εις δικαιοσυνην

23 Not it was written now on account of him alone that it was credited to him,

ουκ εγραφη δε δι αυτον μονον οτι ελογισθη αυτω

24 but also on account of us to whom it is about to be credited, to those believing on the [One] having raised Jesus the Lord of us out from [the] dead,

αλλα και δι ημας οις μελλει λογιζεσθαι τοις πιστευουσιν επι τον εγειραντα ιησουν τον κυριον ημων εκ νεκρων

25 who was delivered over for the trespasses of us and was raised for the justification of us.

ος παρεδοθη δια τα παραπτωματα ημων και ηγερθη δια την δικαιωσιν ημων
