6 Even so Abraham BELIEVED GOD, AND IT WAS RECKONED TO HIM AS RIGHTEOUSNESS.
|
6 Consider Abraham: "He believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness."
|
|
7 Therefore, be sure that it is those who are of faith who are sons of Abraham.
|
7 Understand, then, that those who believe are children of Abraham.
|
|
8 The Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, "ALL THE NATIONS WILL BE BLESSED IN YOU.
|
8 The Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: "All nations will be blessed through you."
|
|
9 So then those who are of faith are blessed with Abraham, the believer.
|
9 So those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.
