Hebrews 6:12-15

NHEB(i) 12 that you won't be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherited the promises. 13 For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he could swear by none greater, he swore by himself, 14 saying, "I will indeed bless you, and I will greatly multiply you." 15 Thus, having patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
