By steadfast love and faithfulness iniquity is atoned for, and by the fear of the Lord one turns away from evil. (ESV)

Through love and faithfulness sin is atoned for; through the fear of the Lord a man avoids evil. (NIV 1984)

By lovingkindness and truth iniquity is atoned for, And by the fear of the Lord one keeps away from evil. (NASB)

Unfailing love and faithfulness make atonement for sin. By fearing the Lord, people avoid evil. (NLT)

~ Proverbs 16:6

Righteousness Through Faith

But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood. He did this to demonstrate his justice, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished— he did it to demonstrate his justice at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.

~ Romans 3:21-26
