16For this reason the havtachah (promise) is of emunah (faith), in order that it might be in accordance with unmerited Chen v'Chesed Hashem, that the havtachah might be certain to all the zera (seed), not to him who is of the Torah only, but also to bnei emunat Avraham (the sons of the faith of Avraham Avinu, to those who are of the faith of Abraham). Avraham Avinu is the father of us all,
17as it is written, AV HAMON GOYIM N'TATICHA (I have made you father of many nations). This was in the sight of Hashem in whom “he believed,” G-d who gives Chayyim to the Mesim and calls things which have no existence into existence.
18Against tikvah (hope), in tikvah “he believed,” in order that he might become AV HAMON GOYIM was credited to him for righteousness).
23Nor was it written down for his sake alone that “it was reckoned to him,”
24But also for us, to whom it is to be reckoned, who believe in Him who raised Yehoshua Adoneinu from the mesim (dead ones),
25Who was handed over for PEYSHA'EINU4:25 Isa 53:5 (our transgressions), and made to stand up in his Techiyas HaMoshiach that we be YITZDAK IM HASHEM4:25 see Ro 5:18 (be justified with G-d, that we have our justification, our acquittal, vindication).
