Hebrews 6:13 in Context — Hebrews 6
11 Mas deseamos que cada uno de vosotros muestre la misma solicitud hasta el cabo, para cumplimiento de la esperanza:
12 Que no os hagáis perezosos, mas imitadores de aquellos que por la fe y la paciencia heredan las promesas.
13 Porque prometiendo Dios á Abraham, no pudiendo jurar por otro mayor, juró por sí mismo,
14 Diciendo: De cierto te bendeciré bendiciendo, y multiplicando te multiplicaré.
15 Y así, esperando con largura de ánimo, alcanzó la promesa.
