Romans 4:13-25 - The Promise To Abraham Secured Through Faith

¹³ For not by the law, the promise to Abraham, or to his seed, for him to be heir of the world, but by the justice of faith. ¹⁴ For if they of the law, heirs, faith was made void, and the promise left inactive: ¹⁵ For the law works wrath: for where is no law, no transgression.

¹⁶ Therefore of faith, that according to grace; the promise to be firm to all the seed; not to that of the law only, but also to that of the faith of Abraham; who is father of us all, ¹⁷ (As it has been written, That have set thee father of many nations,) over against him who believed God, making alive the dead, and calling things not being as being. ¹⁸ Who against hope believed upon hope, for him to become father of many nations, according to that said, So shall thy seed be. ¹⁹ And not having been weak in faith, he observed not his own body already having been dead, being about a hundred years, and the death of Sarah's womb: ²⁰ And for the promise of God he was not separated by unbelief; but was strengthened in faith, having given glory to God; ²¹ And made perfectly certain that, what was promised, he is able to do. ²² And therefore it was reckoned to him for justice. ²³ And it was not written for him alone, that it was reckoned to him; ²⁴ But also for us, to whom it is about to be reckoned, to them believing upon him having raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; ²⁵ Who was delivered up for our faults, and raised up for our justification.
