¹³ For not through the law was the promise to Abraham or to his seed that he should be heir of the world, but through the righteousness of faith.

²⁹ And if ye are Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, heirs according to promise.

⁴ As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be the father of a multitude of nations.

⁵ Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for the father of a multitude of nations have I made thee.

⁶ And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.

¹⁶ Now to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.

¹⁷ Now this I say: A covenant confirmed beforehand by God, the law, which came four hundred and thirty years after, doth not disannul, so as to make the promise of none effect.

¹⁸ For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no more of promise: but God hath granted it to Abraham by promise.

⁸ That is, it is not the children of the flesh that are children of God; but the children of the promise are reckoned for a seed.

¹¹ Yea, all kings shall fall down before him; All nations shall serve him.

⁸ Ask of me, and I will give `thee' the nations for thine inheritance, And the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

¹⁴ And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south. And in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed.

¹⁷ that in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heavens, and as the sand which is upon the seashore. And thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies.

¹⁸ And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed. Because thou hast obeyed my voice.

¹⁶ And I will bless her, and moreover I will give thee a son of her: yea, I will bless her, and she shall be `a mother of' nations; kings of peoples shall be of her.

³ and I will bless them that bless thee, and him that curseth thee will I curse: and in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed.

¹⁰ The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, Nor the ruler's staff from between his feet, Until Shiloh come: And unto him shall the obedience of the peoples be.
