Hebrews 6:12-15

KJ2000(i) 12 That you be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises. 13 For when God made a promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he swore by himself, 14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you. 15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
