Romans 4:14-16
Holman Christian Standard Bible
14 If those who are of the law are heirs,(A) faith is made empty and the promise is canceled. 15 For the law produces wrath.(B) And where there is no law,(C) there is no transgression.
16 This is why the promise is by faith, so that it may be according to grace,(D) to guarantee it to all the descendants(E)—not only to those who are of the law[a] but also to those who are of Abraham’s faith. He is the father of us all

- Romans 4:16 Or not to those who are of the law only
Romans 4:14-16
New International Version
14 For if those who depend on the law are heirs, faith means nothing and the promise is worthless,(A) 15 because the law brings wrath.(B) And where there is no law there is no transgression.(C)
16 Therefore, the promise comes by faith, so that it may be by grace(D) and may be guaranteed(E) to all Abraham’s offspring—not only to those who are of the law but also to those who have the faith of Abraham. He is the father of us all.(F)
