⁷Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.

⁸And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.

⁹So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.

¹⁰For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

¹¹But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.

¹²And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.

¹³Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

¹⁴That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

⁶Euen as Abraham beleeued God, and it was ^‖accounted to him for righteousnesse.

⁷Knowe yee therefore, that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.

⁸And the Scripture foreseeing that God would iustifie the heathen through faith, preached before the Gospel vnto Abraham, saying, ^*In thee shall all nations be blessed.

⁹So then, they which bee of faith, are blessed with faithfull Abraham.

¹⁰For as many as are of the works of the lawe, are vnder the curse: for it is written, ^*Cursed is euery one that continueth not in all things which are written in the booke of the Law to doe them.

¹¹But that no man is iustified by the Lawe in the sight of God, it is euident: for, ^*The iust shall liue by faith.

¹²And the Law is not of faith: but ^*the man that doeth them, shall liue in them.

¹³Christ hath redeemed vs from the curse of the Law, being made a curse for vs: for it is written, ^*Cursed is euery one that hangeth on tree:

¹⁴That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles, through Iesus Christ: that wee might receiue the promise of the Spirit through faith.

⁹Cometh this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.

⁹Commeth this blessednes then vpon the circumcision onely, or vpon the vncircumcision also? for wee say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousnesse.

²⁰He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;

²¹And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.

²²And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.

²³Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him;

²⁴But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;

²⁵Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

²⁰Hee staggered not at the promise of God through vnbeliefe: but was strong in faith, giuing glory to God:

²¹And being fully perswaded, that what he had promised, he was able also to performe.

²²And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousnesse.

²³Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him:

²⁴But for vs also, to whome it shall bee imputed, if wee beleeue on him that raised vp Iesus our Lord from the dead,

²⁵Who was deliuered for our offences, and was raised againe for our iustification.

³For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.

⁴Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.

⁵But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

⁶Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,

³For what saith the Scripture? Abraham beleeued God, and it was counted vnto him for righteousnes.

⁴Now to him that worketh, is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.

⁵But to him that worketh not, but beleeueth on him that iustifieth the vngodly; his faith is counted for righteousnesse.

⁶Euen as Dauid also describeth the blessednesse of the man, vnto whom God imputeth righteousnesse without works:

⁸By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.

⁸By faith Abraham when he was called to goe out into a place which hee should after receiue for an inheritance, obeyed, and he went out, not knowing whither he went.

³¹And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations for evermore.

³¹And that was counted vnto him for righteousnesse: vnto all generations for euermore.

¹¹And 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:

¹¹And hee receiued the signe of circumcision, a seale of the righteousnesse of the faith, which hee had yet being vncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that beleeue, though they be not circumcised; that righteousnesse might be imputed vnto them also:

¹⁹To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

¹⁹To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world vnto himselfe, not imputing their trespasses vnto them, and hath ^†committed vnto vs the word of reconciliation.

¹NOW the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee:

³And said unto him, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall shew thee.

⁴Then came he out of the land of the Chaldæans, and dwelt in Charran: and from thence, when his father was dead, he removed him into this land, wherein ye now dwell.

²And hee said, Men, brethren, and fathers, hearken: The God of glory appeared vnto our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Charran,

³And said vnto him, ^*Get thee out of thy countrey, and from thy kinred, and come into the land which I shall shew thee.

⁴Then came he out of the land of the Chaldeans, and dwelt in Charran: and from thence, when his father was dead, he remoued him into this lande wherein ye now dwell.

¹⁵For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.

¹⁶And 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.

¹⁷Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it unto thee.

¹⁵For all the land which thou seest, ^*to thee will I give it, and to thy seede for euer.

¹⁶And I will make thy seede as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbred.

⁷Thou art the Lord the God, who didst choose Abram, and broughtest him forth out of Ur of the Chaldees, and gavest him the name of Abraham;

⁷Thou art the LORD the God, who diddest choose ^*Abram, and broughtest him forth out of Ur of the Caldees, and gauest him the name of Abraham:

⁸And foundest his heart ^*faithfull before thee, & madest a ^*couenant with him, to giue the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Iebusites, and the Girgashites, to giue it, I say, to his seed, and hast performed thy words, for thou art righteous,

⁴²For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant.

⁴²For he remembred his holy promise: and Abraham his seruant.

⁴⁴And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labour of the people;

^44*And gaue them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labour of the people:

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

¹³For the promise that he should be the heire of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed through the Lawe, but through the righteousnesse of faith.

⁷And the Lord appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the Lord, who appeared unto him.

⁸¶ And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, What shall be the sign that the Lord will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of the Lord the third day?

⁸¶ And Hezekiah said vnto Isaiah, What shall bee the signe that the LORD wil heale me, and that I shall goe vp into the house of the LORD the third day?

¹¹Ask thee a sign of the Lord thy God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above.

^11‖Aske thee a signe of the LORD thy God; aske it either in the depth, or in the height aboue.
