Romans 4:16 in Context — Romans 4
14 porque, se é da Lei que são os herdeiros, logo a fé se torna vazia, e a promessa é anulada.
15 Pois a Lei produz ira, porque onde não há Lei, também não há transgressão.
16 Por isso é pela fé, para que seja conforme a graça, a fim de que a promessa seja confirmada a todos os descendentes, não somente aos que são da Lei, mas também aos que são da fé de Abraão, que é Pai de todos nós,
17 (como está escrito: “Eu te constituí pai de muitas nações”) diante daquele em quem ele creu, Deus, que vivifica os mortos, e chama as coisas que não são como se já fossem.
18 Com esperança, [Abraão] creu, contra as expectativas, que se tornaria pai de muitas nações, conforme o que [lhe] fora dito: “Assim será a tua descendência”.
