Romans 4:12-16

12and the fatherG3962 of circumcisionG4061 to them who not onlyG3440 are of the circumcisionG4061, but who alsoG2532 walkG4748 in the stepsG2487 of that faithG4102 of our fatherG3962 AbrahamG11 which he had in uncircumcisionG203. 13For not through the lawG3551 wasG1510 the promiseG1860 to AbrahamG11 or to his seedG4690 that he should beG1510 heirG2818 of the worldG2889, but through the righteousnessG1343 of faithG4102. 14For if they that are of the lawG3551 are heirsG2818, faithG4102 is made voidG2758, and the promiseG1860 is made of none effect: 15for the lawG3551 worketh wrathG3709; but whereG3757 there isG1510 no lawG3551, neither isG1510 there transgressionG3847. 16For this cause it isG1510 of faithG4102, that it may beG1510 accordingG2596 to graceG5485; to the end that the promiseG1860 may beG1510 sureG949 to all the seedG4690; not to that onlyG3440 which isG1510 of the lawG3551, but to that alsoG2532 which isG1510 of the faithG4102 of AbrahamG11, who isG1510 the fatherG3962 of us all
