    12and to be the father of the circumcised who are not only circumcised but also walk in the footsteps of the faith that our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.

    13For the promise to Abraham or his descendants that he would be heir of the world did not come through the law but through the righteousness of faith.

    16Therefore, the promise comes by faith, that it may be according to grace, so that it might be guaranteed to all the offspring—not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who share the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all.

    17As it is written: 'I have made you a father of many nations.' He is our father in the sight of God, in whom he believed—the God who gives life to the dead and calls things that are not as though they were.

    18Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed, so that he became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, 'So shall your offspring be.'

    20He did not waver in unbelief concerning the promise of God, but he was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God,

    21being fully convinced that God was able to do what He had promised.
