Romans 4:11-18

Whiston(i) 11 And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which [he had] being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness, might be imputed unto them also: 12 And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham. 13 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. 14 For if they which are of the law [be] heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect. 15 Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, [there is] no transgression. 16 Therefore [it is] of the faith of Jesus, by grace; to the end that 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, 17 As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations before him whom he believed, God, who quickneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were: 18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the Father of many nations; according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.
