4 How then can man be ^ain the right before God?
How can he who is ^bborn of woman be ^cpure?

Psalms 130:3

3 If you, O Lord, should ^dmark iniquities,
O Lord, who could ^estand?

Psalms 143:2

2 ^fEnter not into judgment with your servant,
for no one living is righteous ^gbefore you.

James 2:20-26

20 Do you want to be shown, you foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless? 21 ^hWas not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see that ⁱfaith was active along with his works, and faith was completed ^jby his works; 23 and the Scripture was fulfilled that says, ^k“Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”—and he was called a ^lfriend of God. 24 You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone. 25 And in the same way was not also ^mRahab the prostitute justified by works ⁿwhen she received the messengers and sent them out by another way? 26 For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also faith apart from works is dead.
