4:1What then shall we say that Abraham our forefather according to the flesh has found?
Compare
-
4:2For if Abraham was justified out of works, he has something to boast in, but not before God.
Compare
-
4:3For what does the Scripture say? "And Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him as righteousness."
Compare
-
4:4Now to the one who works, his wages are not accounted according to grace, but according to what is due.
Compare
-
4:5But to the one who does not work, but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted as righteousness.

-
4:6Even as David also speaks blessing on the man to whom God accounts righteousness apart from works:

-
4:7Blessed are they whose lawlessnesses have been forgiven, and whose sins have been covered over.
Compare
-
4:8Blessed is the man to whom the Lord shall by no means account sin."

4:11And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while in uncircumcision, that he might be the father of all those in uncircumcision who believe, that righteousness might be accounted to them also,
Compare
-
4:12And the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had in uncircumcision.
Compare
-
4:13For it was not through the law that the promise was made to Abraham or to his seed that he would be the heir of the world, but through the righteousness of faith.
Compare
-
4:14For if those of the law are heirs, faith has been made void and the promise has been annulled;
Compare
-
4:15For the law works out wrath; but where there is no law, neither is there transgression.
Compare
-
4:16Therefore the inheritance is out of faith that it might be according to grace, so that the promise may be certain to all the seed, not to that which is of the law only, but also to that which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all

4:22Therefore also it was accounted to him as righteousness.
Compare
-
4:23Now it was not written for his sake only that it was accounted to him,
Compare
-
4:24But for ours also to whom it is to be accounted, who believe on Him who has raised Jesus our Lord from the dead,
Compare
-
4:25Who was delivered for our offenses and was raised for our justification.
