Romans
4
1
What then shall we say that Abraham, our ancestor according to the flesh, has discovered regarding this matter?
2
For if Abraham was declared righteous by the works of the law, he has something to boast about - but not before God.
3
For what does the scripture say? "Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness."
4
Now to the one who works, his pay is not credited due to grace but due to obligation.
5
But to the one who does not work, but believes in the one who declares the ungodly righteous, his faith is credited as righteousness.
6
So even David himself speaks regarding the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:
7
"Blessed are those whose lawless deeds are forgiven, and whose sins are covered;
8
blessed is the one against whom the Lord will never count sin."
