| 7:12 | And when your days will have been fulfilled, and you will sleep with your fathers, I will raise up your offspring after you, who will go forth from your loins, and I will make firm his kingdom. |
| 7:13 | He himself shall build a house to my name. And I will establish the throne of his kingdom, even forever. |
| 7:14 | I will be a father to him, and he shall be a son to me. And if he will commit any iniquity, I will correct him with the rod of men and with the wounds of the sons of men. |
| 7:16 | And your house shall be faithful, and your kingdom shall be before your face, for eternity, and your throne shall be secure continuously.’ ” |
romanos 4: 13, 16- 18, 22
| 4:13 | Por la promesa a Abraham, y a su posteridad, que heredaría el mundo, no fue por la ley, sino por la justicia de la fe. |
| 4:16 | Debido a esto, es de la fe según la gracia que la Promesa está asegurada para toda la posteridad, no solo para los que son de la ley, sino también para los que son de la fe de Abraham, quien es el padre de todos nosotros delante de Dios, |
| 4:17 | en quien creyó, que resucita a los muertos y llama a la existencia a las cosas que no existen. porque esta escrito: “Te he establecido como padre de muchas naciones”. |
| 4:18 | y él creyó, con una esperanza más allá de la esperanza, para que llegara a ser padre de muchas naciones, de acuerdo a lo que se le dijo: “Así será vuestra posteridad”. |
| 4:22 | Y por esta razon, le fue reputado a la justicia. |
mateo 1: 16, 18- 21, 24
| 1:16 | And Jacob conceived Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ. |
| 1:18 | Now the procreation of the Christ occurred in this way. After his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they lived together, she was found to have conceived in her womb by the Holy Spirit. |
| 1:19 | Then Joseph, her husband, since he was just and was not willing to hand her over, preferred to send her away secretly. |
| 1:20 | But while thinking over these things, Mirad, an Angel of the Lord appeared to him in his sleep, dicho: “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to accept Mary as your wife. For what has been formed in her is of the Holy Spirit. |
| 1:21 | And she shall give birth to a son. And you shall call his name JESUS. For he shall accomplish the salvation of his people from their sins.” |
| 1:24 | Then Joseph, arising from sleep, did just as the Angel of the Lord had instructed him, and he accepted her as his wife. |
