11 And we desire that every
one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the
end:
12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience
inherit the promises.
13 For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater,
he sware by himself,
14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply
thee.
15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
