Romans
Romans 4:22–25
22This is why “it was credited to him as righteousness.”f
23Now the words “it was credited to him” were written not only for Abraham, 24but also for us, to whom righteousness will be credited— for us who believe in Him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. 25He was delivered over to death for our trespasses and was raised to life for our justification.
