 Romans 4

20 Abraham never wavered in believing God’s promise. 

In fact, his faith grew stronger, 

and in this he brought glory to God. 

21 He was fully convinced that God is able to do whatever he promises. 

22 And because of Abraham’s faith, 

God counted him as righteous. 

23 And when God counted him as righteous, 

it wasn’t just for Abraham’s benefit. 

It was recorded 24 for our benefit, too, 

assuring us that God will also count us as righteous 

if we believe in him, 

the one who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. 

25 He was handed over to die 

because of our sins, 

and he was raised to life to make us right with God.
