After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise.

Blessed be the LORD, that hath given rest unto his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed one word of all his good promise, which he promised by the hand of Moses his servant.

Now, O LORD God, let thy promise unto David my father be established: for thou hast made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.

Then said they, We will restore them, and will require nothing of them; so will we do as thou sayest. Then I called the priests, and took an oath of them, that they should do according to this promise.

Also I shook my lap, and said, So God shake out every man from his house, and from his labour, that performeth not this promise, even thus be he shaken out, and emptied. And all the congregation said, Amen, and praised the LORD. And the people did according to this promise.

Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore?

For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant.

For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.

But when the time of the promise drew nigh, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,

For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.

For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect:

Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,

He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;

That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.

That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.

For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.

But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise.

Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.

In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:

Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;)

For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus,

Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.

For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,

And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.

Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath:

For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:

And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:

While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.

And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life.
