“and to him who is not working, and is believing on Him who is declaring righteous the impious, his faith is reckoned for righteousness—”— Romans 4:5 (LSV)
2For if Abraham was declared righteous by works, he has to boast—but not before God;
3for what does the writing say? “And Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him for righteousness”;
4and to him who is working, the reward is not reckoned of grace, but of debt;
5and to him who is not working, and is believing on Him who is declaring righteous the impious, his faith is reckoned for righteousness—
6even as David also speaks of the blessedness of the man to whom God reckons righteousness apart from works:
7“Blessed [are] they whose lawless acts were forgiven, || And whose sins were covered;
8Blessed [is] the man || To whom the LORD may not reckon sin.”
