Romans 4:4-5

Context
4:4 Now to the one who works, his pay is not credited due to grace but due to obligation. 1  4:5 But to the one who does not work, but believes in the one who declares the ungodly righteous, 2  his faith is credited as righteousness.

Romans 4:14

Context
4:14 For if they become heirs by the law, faith is empty and the promise is nullified. 3 

Romans 4:16

Context
4:16 For this reason it is by faith so that it may be by grace, 4  with the result that the promise may be certain to all the descendants – not only to those who are under the law, but also to those who have the faith of Abraham, 5  who is the father of us all

Romans 9:30-32

Context
Israel’s Rejection Culpable

9:30 What shall we say then? – that the Gentiles who did not pursue righteousness obtained it, that is, a righteousness that is by faith, 9:31 but Israel even though pursuing 6  a law of righteousness 7  did not attain it. 8  9:32 Why not? Because they pursued 9  it not by faith but (as if it were possible) by works. 10  They stumbled over the stumbling stone, 11 

Romans 10:5-6

Context

10:5 For Moses writes about the righteousness that is by the law: “The one who does these things will live by them.” 12  10:6 But the righteousness that is by faith says: “Do not say in your heart, 13 Who will ascend into heaven?’” 14  (that is, to bring Christ down)

Romans 11:6

Context
11:6 And if it is by grace, it is no longer by works, otherwise grace would no longer be grace.

[4:4]  1 tn Grk “not according to grace but according to obligation.”

[4:5]  2 tn Or “who justifies the ungodly.”

[4:14]  3 tn Grk “rendered inoperative.”

[4:16]  4 tn Grk “that it might be according to grace.”

[4:16]  5 tn Grk “those who are of the faith of Abraham.”

[9:31]  6 tn Or “who pursued.” The participle could be taken adverbially or adjectivally.

[9:31]  7 tn Or “a legal righteousness,” that is, a righteousness based on law. This translation would treat the genitive δικαιοσύνης (dikaiosunh") as an attributed genitive (see ExSyn 89-91).

[9:31]  8 tn Grk “has not attained unto the law.”

[9:32]  9 tn Grk “Why? Because not by faith but as though by works.” The verb (“they pursued [it]”) is to be supplied from the preceding verse for the sake of English style; yet a certain literary power is seen in Paul’s laconic style.

[9:32]  10 tc Most mss, especially the later ones (א2 D Ψ 33 Ï sy), read νόμου (nomou, “of the law”) here, echoing Paul’s usage in Rom 3:20, 28 and elsewhere. The qualifying phrase is lacking in א* A B F G 6 629 630 1739 1881 pc lat co. The longer reading thus is weaker externally and internally, being motivated apparently by a need to clarify.

[9:32]  11 tn Grk “the stone of stumbling.”

[10:5]  12 sn A quotation from Lev 18:5.

[10:6]  13 sn A quotation from Deut 9:4.

[10:6]  14 sn A quotation from Deut 30:12.
