ROM 4:17 (as it is written, A father of many nations have I made thee) before him whom he believed, `even' God, who giveth life to the dead, and calleth the things that are not, as though they were.
4:17 Kama Maandiko Matakatifu yasemavyo: "Nimekuweka uwe baba wa mataifa mengi." Ahadi hiyo ni kweli mbele ya Mungu ambaye Abrahamu alimwamini--Mungu ambaye huwapa wafu uzima, na kwa amri yake, vitu ambavyo havikuwapo huwa.
