Romans 4:16-21 Because of this it is from faith, so that it is according to grace, in order for the promise to be sure to all the seed, not only to the seed from the law, but also to the seed from the faith of Abraham, who is father of us all

ACV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁶ Because of this it is from faith, so that it is according to grace, in order for the promise to be sure to all the seed, not only to the seed from the law, but also to the seed from the faith of Abraham, who is father of us all ¹⁷ (as it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations), before him whom he believed, of God who makes the dead alive, and who calls things not existing, as existing. ¹⁸ Who, against hope, believed in hope, in order for him to become father of many nations according to that which was spoken, So thy seed will be. ¹⁹ And not being weak in faith he did not regard his body, which was now deadened (being about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah's womb. ²⁰ And he did not waver in unbelief at the promise of God, but became strong in faith, giving glory to God, ²¹ and being fully assured that what he promised, he was able also to perform.
