(as it is written, A father of many nations have I made thee) before him whom he believed, 'even' God, who giveth life to the dead, and calleth the things that are not, as though they were.
As it is writun, For Y haue set þee fadir of many folkis, bifor God to whom thou hast bileued. Which God quykeneth deed men, and clepith tho thingis þat ben not, as tho þat ben.
