Pitiful.
You would have us believe that the Douay-Rheims commentators are lying instead?
Pitiful!
8 For by grace you are saved through faith: and that not of yourselves, for it is the gift of God. 9 Not of works, that no man may glory.- Not of works... as of our own growth, or from ourselves; but as from the grace of God.

Romans 4: 4 Now to him that worketh, the reward is not reckoned according to grace but according to debt.
To him that worketh... Viz., as of his own fund, or by his own strength. Such a man, says the apostle, challenges his reward as a debt due to his own performances; whereas he who worketh not, that is, who presumeth not upon any works done by his own strength, but seeketh justice through faith and grace, is freely justified by God's grace.
5 But to him that worketh not, yet believeth in him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith (emphasis added) is reputed to justice, according to the purpose of the grace of God.
