"Similarly, David also declares the blessedness of a man, to whom God brings justice without works: "
— Romans 4:6, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,”
“Even as David also pronounceth blessing upon the man, unto whom God reckoneth righteousness apart from works, ”
“Even as David also pronounces blessing on the man to whom God counts righteousness apart from works,”
“So even David himself speaks regarding the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:”
“As David also termeth the blessedness of a man to whom God reputeth justice without works:”
“As David says that there is a blessing on the man to whose account God puts righteousness without works, saying,”
“Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,”
For what does Scripture say? “Abram believed God, and it was reputed to him unto justice.”
But for he who works, wages are not accounted according to grace, but according to debt.
Yet truly, for he who does not work, but who believes in him who justifies the impious, his faith is reputed unto justice, according to the purpose of the grace of God.
Similarly, David also declares the blessedness of a man, to whom God brings justice without works:
“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.
