| [1]Τί οὖν ἐροῦμεν ⸀εὑρηκέναι Ἀβραὰμ τὸν ⸀προπάτορα ⸀ἡμῶν κατὰ σάρκα; |
[1]What shall we say then, that Abraham our father hath found concerning the flesh? |
| [2]εἰ γὰρ Ἀβραὰμ ἐξ ἔργων ἐδικαιώθη, ἔχει καύχημα· ἀλλʼ οὐ ⸀πρὸς θεόν, |
[2]For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath wherein to rejoice, but not with God. |
| [3]τί γὰρ ἡ γραφὴ λέγει; Ἐπίστευσεν δὲ Ἀβραὰμ τῷ θεῷ καὶ ἐλογίσθη αὐτῷ εἰς δικαιοσύνην. |
[3]For what saith the Scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness. |
| [4]τῷ δὲ ἐργαζομένῳ ὁ μισθὸς οὐ λογίζεται κατὰ χάριν ἀλλὰ κατὰ ὀφείλημα· |
[4]Now to him that worketh, the wages is not counted by favor, but by debt, |
| [5]τῷ δὲ μὴ ἐργαζομένῳ, πιστεύοντι δὲ ἐπὶ τὸν δικαιοῦντα τὸν ἀσεβῆ, λογίζεται ἡ πίστις αὐτοῦ εἰς δικαιοσύνην, |
[5]But to him that worketh not, but believeth in him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. |
| [6]καθάπερ καὶ Δαυὶδ λέγει τὸν μακαρισμὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ᾧ ὁ θεὸς λογίζεται δικαιοσύνην χωρὶς ἔργων· |
[6]Even as David declareth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works, saying, |
| [7]Μακάριοι ὧν ἀφέθησαν αἱ ἀνομίαι καὶ ὧν ἐπεκαλύφθησαν αἱ ἁμαρτίαι, |
[7]Blessed are they, whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. |
| [8]μακάριος ἀνὴρ ⸀οὗ οὐ μὴ λογίσηται κύριος ἁμαρτίαν. |
[8]Blessed is the man, to whom the Lord imputeth not sin. |
| [9]Ὁ μακαρισμὸς οὖν οὗτος ἐπὶ τὴν περιτομὴν ἢ καὶ ἐπὶ τὴν ἀκροβυστίαν; λέγομεν ⸀γάρ· Ἐλογίσθη τῷ Ἀβραὰμ ἡ πίστις εἰς δικαιοσύνην. |
[9]Came this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? For we say, that faith was imputed unto Abraham for righteousness. |
| [10]πῶς οὖν ἐλογίσθη; ἐν περιτομῇ ὄντι ἢ ἐν ἀκροβυστίᾳ; οὐκ ἐν περιτομῇ ἀλλʼ ἐν ἀκροβυστίᾳ· |
[10]How was it then imputed? when he was circumcised, or uncircumcised? not when he was circumcised, but when he was uncircumcised. |
| [11]καὶ σημεῖον ἔλαβεν περιτομῆς, σφραγῖδα τῆς δικαιοσύνης τῆς πίστεως τῆς ἐν τῇ ἀκροβυστίᾳ, εἰς τὸ εἶναι αὐτὸν πατέρα πάντων τῶν πιστευόντων διʼ ἀκροβυστίας, εἰς τὸ ⸀λογισθῆναι αὐτοῖς τὴν δικαιοσύνην, |
[11]After he received the sign of circumcision, as the seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had, when he was uncircumcised, that he should be the father of all them that believe, not being circumcised, that righteousness might be imputed to them also, |
| [12]καὶ πατέρα περιτομῆς τοῖς οὐκ ἐκ περιτομῆς μόνον ἀλλὰ καὶ τοῖς στοιχοῦσιν τοῖς ἴχνεσιν τῆς ⸂ἐν ἀκροβυστίᾳ πίστεως⸃ τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν Ἀβραάμ. |
[12]And the father of circumcision, not unto them only which are of the circumcision, but unto them also that walk in the steps of the faith of our father Abraham, which he had when he was uncircumcised. |
| [13]Οὐ γὰρ διὰ νόμου ἡ ἐπαγγελία τῷ Ἀβραὰμ ἢ τῷ σπέρματι αὐτοῦ, τὸ κληρονόμον αὐτὸν ⸀εἶναι κόσμου, ἀλλὰ διὰ δικαιοσύνης πίστεως· |
[13]For the promise that he should be the heir of the world, was not given to Abraham, or to his seed, through the Law, but through the righteousness of faith. |
| [14]εἰ γὰρ οἱ ἐκ νόμου κληρονόμοι, κεκένωται ἡ πίστις καὶ κατήργηται ἡ ἐπαγγελία· |
[14]For if they which are of the Law, be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise is made of none effect. |
| [15]ὁ γὰρ νόμος ὀργὴν κατεργάζεται, οὗ ⸀δὲ οὐκ ἔστιν νόμος, οὐδὲ παράβασις. |
[15]For the Law causeth wrath: for where no Law is, there is no transgression. |
| [16]Διὰ τοῦτο ἐκ πίστεως, ἵνα κατὰ χάριν, εἰς τὸ εἶναι βεβαίαν τὴν ἐπαγγελίαν παντὶ τῷ σπέρματι, οὐ τῷ ἐκ τοῦ νόμου μόνον ἀλλὰ καὶ τῷ ἐκ πίστεως Ἀβραάμ (ὅς ἐστιν πατὴρ πάντων ἡμῶν, |
[16]Therefore it is by faith, that it might come by grace, and the promise might be sure to all the seed, not to that only which is of the Law: but also to that which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all, |
| [17]καθὼς γέγραπται ὅτι Πατέρα πολλῶν ἐθνῶν τέθεικά σε), κατέναντι οὗ ἐπίστευσεν θεοῦ τοῦ ζῳοποιοῦντος τοὺς νεκροὺς καὶ καλοῦντος τὰ μὴ ὄντα ὡς ὄντα· |
[17](As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations) even before God whom he believed, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not, as though they were. |
| [18]ὃς παρʼ ἐλπίδα ἐπʼ ἐλπίδι ἐπίστευσεν εἰς τὸ γενέσθαι αὐτὸν πατέρα πολλῶν ἐθνῶν κατὰ τὸ εἰρημένον· Οὕτως ἔσται τὸ σπέρμα σου· |
[18]Which Abraham above hope, believed under hope, that he should be the father of many nations: according to that which was spoken to him, So shall thy seed be. |
| [19]καὶ μὴ ἀσθενήσας τῇ ⸀πίστει κατενόησεν τὸ ἑαυτοῦ ⸀σῶμα νενεκρωμένον, ἑκατονταετής που ὑπάρχων, καὶ τὴν νέκρωσιν τῆς μήτρας Σάρρας, |
[19]And he not weak in the faith, considered not his own body, which was now dead, being almost an hundredth year old, neither the deadness of Sarah's womb. |
| [20]εἰς δὲ τὴν ἐπαγγελίαν τοῦ θεοῦ οὐ διεκρίθη τῇ ἀπιστίᾳ ἀλλὰ ἐνεδυναμώθη τῇ πίστει, δοὺς δόξαν τῷ θεῷ |
[20]Neither did he doubt of the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in the faith, and gave glory to God, |
| [21]καὶ πληροφορηθεὶς ὅτι ὃ ἐπήγγελται δυνατός ἐστιν καὶ ποιῆσαι. |
[21]Being fully assured that he which had promised, was also able to do it. |
| [22]⸀διὸ ἐλογίσθη αὐτῷ εἰς δικαιοσύνην. |
[22]And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness. |
| [23]Οὐκ ἐγράφη δὲ διʼ αὐτὸν μόνον ὅτι ἐλογίσθη αὐτῷ, |
[23]Now it is not written for him only, that it was imputed to him for righteousness, |
| [24]ἀλλὰ καὶ διʼ ἡμᾶς οἷς μέλλει λογίζεσθαι, τοῖς πιστεύουσιν ἐπὶ τὸν ἐγείραντα Ἰησοῦν τὸν κύριον ἡμῶν ἐκ νεκρῶν, |
[24]But also for us, to whom it shall be imputed for righteousness, which believe in him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead. |
| [25]ὃς παρεδόθη διὰ τὰ παραπτώματα ἡμῶν καὶ ἠγέρθη διὰ τὴν δικαίωσιν ἡμῶν. |
[25]Who was delivered to death for our sins, and is risen again for our justification. |
