Romans 4:12-15 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

12. and he might be the father of circumcision, not only for those who are of circumcision, but even for those who follow the footsteps of that faith which is in the uncircumcision of our father Abraham.

13. For the Promise to Abraham, and to his posterity, that he would inherit the world, was not through the law, but through the justice of faith.

14. For if those who are of the law are the heirs, then faith becomes empty and the Promise is abolished.

15. For the law works unto wrath. And where there is no law, there is no law-breaking.
