Romans 4:17-22

17as it is written, a“I have made you the father of many nations”—in the presence of the God in whom he believed, bwho gives life to the dead and calls into existence cthe things that do not exist. 18In hope he believed against hope, that he should become the father of many nations, as he had been told, dSo shall your offspring be.” 19He did not weaken in faith when he considered his own body, which was eas good as dead ( fsince he was about a hundred years old), or when he considered gthe barrenness
Greek deadness
of Sarah’s womb.
20No unbelief made him waver concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong in his faith as he gave glory to God, 21fully convinced that iGod was able to do what he had promised. 22That is why his faith was “counted to him as righteousness.”
