Romans 4:4-8 Now to him that worketh the reward is not reckoned as a favor, but as a debt:

Worsley⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴ Now to him that worketh the reward is not reckoned as a favor, but as a debt: ⁵ but to him that worketh not, but believeth on Him who justifieth the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness. ⁶ As David also describeth the blessedness of the man to whom: God imputeth righteousness without works, saying, ⁷ "Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered: ⁸ blessed is the man to whom the Lord imputeth not sin."
