Hebrews 6:13 Context
11And wee desire, that euery one of you doe shewe the same diligence, to the full assurance of hope vnto the ende: 12That yee be not slothfull, but followers of them, who through faith and patience inherite the promises. 13For when God made promise to Abraham, because hee could sweare by no greater, he sware by himselfe, 14Saying, Surely, blessing I will blesse thee, and multiplying I wil multiply thee. 15And so after he had patiently indured, he obtained the promise.
