Romans 4:6–10 · Berean Standard Bible

6 And David speaks likewise of the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works:

7 “Blessed are they whose lawless acts are forgiven, whose sins are covered.

8 Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will never count against him.”

10 In what context was it credited? Was it after his circumcision, or before? It was not after, but before.
