Romans 4:12-14
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
12 and the father of the circumcised to the ones not of circumcision only, but indeed the ones walking-in-line in the footsteps of the faith of our father Abraham while he was in uncircumcision.
The Promise Was Not Through The Law But Faith, Making It Firm To All
13 For the promise to Abraham or to his seed[a] that he should be the inheritor of the world was not through the Law[b], but through the righteousness of faith! 14 For if the ones of the Law are inheritors, faith has been made-empty[c] and the promise has been nullified[d].
