Romans 4:13-16

13ForG1063 theG3588 promiseG1860 to AbrahamG11 and hisG846 offspringG4690 thatG3588 heG846 would beG1510 heirG2818 of the worldG2889 was notG3756 given throughG1223 the lawG3551, butG235 throughG1223 the righteousnessG1343 that comes by faithG4102. 14ForG1063 ifG1487 thoseG3588 who live by the lawG3551 are heirsG2818, faithG4102 is uselessG2758 andG2532 theG3588 promiseG1860 is worthlessG2673, 15becauseG1063 theG3588 lawG3551 bringsG2716 wrathG3709. AndG1161 whereG3757 there isG1510 noG3756 lawG3551, there is noG3761 transgressionG3847.

16ThereforeG1223, the promise comes byG1537 faithG4102, so thatG2443G1519 it may rest onG2596 graceG5485 and may beG1510 guaranteedG949 to allG3956 Abraham’s offspringG4690—notG3756 onlyG3440 to those who areG3588 ofG1537 theG3588 lawG3551, butG235 alsoG2532 to those who areG3588 ofG1537 the faithG4102 of AbrahamG11. He isG1510 the fatherG3962 of usG1473 allG3956.
