New Living Translation
Romans 4:17-20
New Living Translation
17 That is what the Scriptures mean when God told him, “I have made you the father of many nations.”[a] This happened because Abraham believed in the God who brings the dead back to life and who creates new things out of nothing.
18 Even when there was no reason for hope, Abraham kept hoping—believing that he would become the father of many nations. For God had said to him, “That’s how many descendants you will have!”[b] 19 And Abraham’s faith did not weaken, even though, at about 100 years of age, he figured his body was as good as dead—and so was Sarah’s womb.
20 Abraham never wavered in believing God’s promise. In fact, his faith grew stronger, and in this he brought glory to God.

17 As it is written: “I have made you a father of many nations.”[a](A) He is our father in the sight of God, in whom he believed—the God who gives life(B) to the dead and calls(C) into being things that were not.(D)
18 Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations,(E) just as it had been said to him, “So shall your offspring be.”[b](F) 19 Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead(G)—since he was about a hundred years old(H)—and that Sarah’s womb was also dead.(I) 20 Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened(J) in his faith and gave glory to God,(K)
