9[Is] this happiness, then, upon the circumcision, or also upon the uncircumcision -- for we say that the faith was reckoned to Abraham -- to righteousness?
10how then was it reckoned? he being in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision;
11and a sign he did receive of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith in the uncircumcision, for his being father of all those believing through uncircumcision, for the righteousness also being reckoned to them,
12and father of circumcision to those not of circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of the faith, that [is] in the uncircumcision of our father Abraham.
13For not through law [is] the promise to Abraham, or to his seed, of his being heir of the world, but through the righteousness of faith;
14for if they who are of law [are] heirs, the faith hath been made void, and the promise hath been made useless;
15for the law doth work wrath; for where law is not, neither [is] transgression.
