Romans 4:13-15 For the promise made to Abraham and his descendants that the world should belong to him did not come to him or his descendants through the Law, but through the uprightness that resulted from his faith.

Goodspeed⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹³ For the promise made to Abraham and his descendants that the world should belong to him did not come to him or his descendants through the Law, but through the uprightness that resulted from his faith. ¹⁴ For if it is the adherents of the Law who are to possess it, faith is nullified and the promise amounts to nothing! ¹⁵ For the Law only brings down God's wrath; where there is no law, there is no violation of it.
