Galatians 3:7-9
Contemporary English Version
7 (A) And so, you should understand that everyone who has faith is a child of Abraham.[a] 8 (B) Long ago the Scriptures said God would accept the Gentiles because of their faith. This is why God told Abraham the good news that all nations would be blessed because of him. 9 This means everyone who has faith will share in the blessings given to Abraham because of his faith.
