Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: {it is} the gift of God:

That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these {are} not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.

But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) {by...: or, by whose grace}

For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,

Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.

And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which {he had yet} 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:

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: {it is} the gift of God:

And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.

And if ye {be} Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.

Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) {by...: or, by whose grace}

Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

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

What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found?

For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

Which {hope} we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;

Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to {our} father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. {worthy of: or, meet for}

For verily he took not on {him the nature of} angels; but he took on {him} the seed of Abraham. {took not...: Gr. taketh not hold of angels, but of the seed of Abraham he taketh hold}

And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, {then} shall thy seed also be numbered.

Look unto Abraham your father, and unto Sarah {that} bare you: for I called him alone, and blessed him, and increased him.

They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.

And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.

Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises {made} unto the fathers:

That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?

[A Psalm of Asaph.] Truly God {is} good to Israel, {even} to such as are of a clean heart. {of: or, for} {Truly: or, Yet} {of...: Heb. clean of heart}

For if they which are of the law {be} heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect:

Wherefore? Because {they sought it} not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;

We {who are} Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,

Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given {us} everlasting consolation and good hope through grace,

And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which {he had yet} 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:

They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they {are} the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring with them.

In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.

Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.
