"But then how was it reputed? In circumcision or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision. "
— Romans 4:10, Catholic Public Domain Version
“How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.”
“How then was it reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision: ”
“How then was it counted? When he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.”
“How then was it credited to him? Was he circumcised at the time, or not? No, he was not circumcised but uncircumcised!”
“How then was it reputed? When he was in circumcision or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.”
“How, then, was it judged? when he had circumcision, or when he had it not? Not when he had it, but when he did not have it:”
“How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.”
“Blessed are they whose iniquities have been forgiven and whose sins have been covered.
Blessed is the man to whom the Lord has not imputed sin.”
Does this blessedness, then, remain only in the circumcised, or is it even in the uncircumcised? For we say that faith was reputed to Abraham unto justice.
But then how was it reputed? In circumcision or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.
For he received the sign of circumcision as a symbol of the justice of that faith which exists apart from circumcision, so that he might be the father of all those who believe while uncircumcised, so that it might also be reputed to them unto justice,
and he might be the father of circumcision, not only for those who are of circumcision, but even for those who follow the footsteps of that faith which is in the uncircumcision of our father Abraham.
For the Promise to Abraham, and to his posterity, that he would inherit the world, was not through the law, but through the justice of faith.
