13 When God made his promise to Abraham, since there was no one greater for him to swear by, he swore by himself,

13 For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he had no one greater by whom to swear, he swore by himself,

13 For example, there was God’s promise to Abraham. Since there was no one greater to swear by, God took an oath in his own name, saying:

13 For when God made a promise to Abraham, because He could swear by no one greater, He swore by Himself,

13 God made a promise to Abraham. And as there is no one greater than God, he used himself when he swore to Abraham,

13 For when God made promise to Abraham, since he could swear by none greater, he sware by himself,

13 For God, having promised to Abraham, since he had no greater to swear by, swore by himself,

13 God made a promise to Abraham. Since he had no one greater on whom to base his oath, he based it on himself.

13 For when God made a promise to Abraham, since He had no one greater to swear by, He swore by Himself:

13 When God made a promise to Abraham, because he had no one greater by whom to swear, he swore by himself,

13 For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he had no one greater to swear by, he swore by himself,

13 When God made his promise to Abraham, he took an oath to keep it. But there was no one greater than himself to take an oath by. So he took his oath by making an appeal to himself.

13 For when God made the promise to Abraham, since He could swear by no one greater, He swore by Himself,
