15And so, having patiently waited, he obtained the promise. 16For people swear an oath by one greater than themselves, and with them an oath serving as confirmation is an end of every dispute. 17In the same way God, desiring even more to demonstrate to the heirs of the promise the fact that His purpose is unchangeable, confirmed it with an oath,King James Version
