Berean Standard Bible
1τι ουν ερουμεν αβρααμ τον πατερα ημων ευρηκεναι κατα σαρκα
1What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather, has discovered?
2ει γαρ αβρααμ εξ εργων εδικαιωθη εχει καυχημα αλλ ου προσ τον θεον
2If Abraham was indeed justified by works, he had something to boast about, but not before God.
3τι γαρ η γραφη λεγει επιστευσεν δε αβρααμ τω θεω και ελογισθη αυτω εισ δικαιοσυνην
3For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”
4τω δε εργαζομενω ο μισθοσ ου λογιζεται κατα χαριν αλλα κατα οφειλημα
4Now the wages of the worker are not credited as a gift, but as an obligation.
5τω δε μη εργαζομενω πιστευοντι δε επι τον δικαιουντα τον ασεβη λογιζεται η πιστισ αυτου εισ δικαιοσυνην
5However, to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the wicked, his faith is credited as righteousness.
6καθαπερ και δαυιδ λεγει τον μακαρισμον του ανθρωπου ω ο θεοσ λογιζεται δικαιοσυνην χωρισ εργων
6And David speaks likewise of the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:
7μακαριοι ων αφεθησαν αι ανομιαι και ων επεκαλυφθησαν αι αμαρτιαι
7“Blessed are they whose lawless acts are forgiven, whose sins are covered.
8μακαριοσ ανηρ ω ου μη λογισηται κυριοσ αμαρτιαν
8Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will never count against him.”
9ο μακαρισμοσ ουν ουτοσ επι την περιτομην η και επι την ακροβυστιαν λεγομεν γαρ οτι ελογισθη τω αβρααμ η πιστισ εισ δικαιοσυνην
9Is this blessing only on the circumcised, or also on the uncircumcised? We have been saying that Abraham’s faith was credited to him as righteousness.
10πωσ ουν ελογισθη εν περιτομη οντι η εν ακροβυστια ουκ εν περιτομη αλλ εν ακροβυστια
10In what context was it credited? Was it after his circumcision, or before? It was not after, but before.
11και 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
11And he received the sign of circumcision as a seal of the righteousness that he had by faith while he was still uncircumcised. So then, he is the father of all who believe but are not circumcised, in order that righteousness might be credited to them.
12και πατερα περιτομησ τοισ ουκ εκ περιτομησ μονον αλλα και τοισ στοιχουσιν τοισ ιχνεσιν τησ πιστεωσ τησ εν τη ακροβυστια του πατροσ ημων αβρααμ
12And he is also the father of the circumcised who not only are circumcised, but who also walk in the footsteps of the faith that our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.
13ου γαρ δια νομου η επαγγελια τω αβρααμ η τω σπερματι αυτου το κληρονομον αυτον ειναι του κοσμου αλλα δια δικαιοσυνησ πιστεωσ
13For the promise to Abraham and his offspring that he would be heir of the world was not given through the law, but through the righteousness that comes by faith.
14ει γαρ οι εκ νομου κληρονομοι κεκενωται η πιστισ και κατηργηται η επαγγελια
14For if those who live by the law are heirs, faith is useless and the promise is worthless,
15ο γαρ νομοσ οργην κατεργαζεται ου γαρ ουκ εστιν νομοσ ουδε παραβασισ
15because the law brings wrath. And where there is no law, there is no transgression.
16δια 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
16Therefore, the promise comes by faith, so that it may rest on grace and may be guaranteed to all Abraham’s offspring—not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham. He is the father of us all.
17καθωσ γεγραπται οτι πατερα πολλων εθνων τεθεικα σε κατεναντι ου επιστευσεν θεου του ζωοποιουντοσ τουσ νεκρουσ και καλουντοσ τα μη οντα ωσ οντα
17As it is written: “I have made you a father of many nations.” He is our father in the presence of God, in whom he believed, the God who gives life to the dead and calls into being what does not yet exist.
18οσ παρ ελπιδα επ ελπιδι επιστευσεν εισ το γενεσθαι αυτον πατερα πολλων εθνων κατα το ειρημενον ουτωσ εσται το σπερμα σου
18Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as he had been told, “So shall your offspring be.”
19και μη ασθενησασ τη πιστει ου κατενοησεν το εαυτου σωμα ηδη νενεκρωμενον εκατονταετησ που υπαρχων και την νεκρωσιν τησ μητρασ σαρρασ
19Without weakening in his faith, he acknowledged the decrepitness of his body (since he was about a hundred years old) and the lifelessness of Sarah’s womb.
20εισ δε την επαγγελιαν του θεου ου διεκριθη τη απιστια αλλ ενεδυναμωθη τη πιστει δουσ δοξαν τω θεω
20Yet he did not waver through disbelief in the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God,
21και πληροφορηθεισ οτι ο επηγγελται δυνατοσ εστιν και ποιησαι
21being fully persuaded that God was able to do what He had promised.
22διο και ελογισθη αυτω εισ δικαιοσυνην
22This is why “it was credited to him as righteousness.”
23ουκ εγραφη δε δι αυτον μονον οτι ελογισθη αυτω
23Now the words “it was credited to him” were written not only for Abraham,
24αλλα και δι ημασ οισ μελλει λογιζεσθαι τοισ πιστευουσιν επι τον εγειραντα ιησουν τον κυριον ημων εκ νεκρων
24but also for us, to whom righteousness will be credited—for us who believe in Him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead.
25οσ παρεδοθη δια τα παραπτωματα ημων και ηγερθη δια την δικαιωσιν ημων
25He was delivered over to death for our trespasses and was raised to life for our justification.
