故自一人猶已死者、生育如天星之繁多、海沙之無數、○

是以一人血氣雖衰、生育蕃衍、如眾星之在天、猶海沙之無量、

故由一人、身若已死者、生育蕃衍、如天星之眾、如海沙之無數、

因此之故、以一衰邁瀕死之人、其所出子孫、如天上之星、海濱之沙、有不可勝數者焉。

And so from this one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.

Abraham was past the time when he could have children. But many children came from that one man. They were as many as the stars in the sky. They were as many as the grains of sand on the seashore. No one could count them.

Therefore from one man, and him as good as dead, were born descendants as many as the stars of heaven and as many as the innumerable grains of sand by the seashore.

And so a whole nation came from this one man who was as good as dead— a nation with so many people that, like the stars in the sky and the sand on the seashore, there is no way to count them.

Therefore, from one man— in fact, from one as good as dead— came offspring as numerous as the stars of the sky and as innumerable as the grains of sand along the seashore.

Therefore even from one man, and one who was as good as dead at that, there were born descendants who were just as the stars of heaven in number, and as the innumerable grains of sand along the seashore.

Therefore from one man, and him as good as dead, were born as many as the stars of the sky in multitude— innumerable as the sand which is by the seashore.

wherefore also there sprang of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of heaven in multitude, and as the sand, which is by the sea- shore, innumerable.

Therefore from one man— in fact, from one as good as dead— came offspring as numerous as the stars of heaven and as innumerable as the grains of sand by the seashore.

Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead,[ so many] as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.

So in fact children were fathered by one man– and this one as good as dead– like the number of stars in the sky and like the innumerable grains of sand on the seashore.

Therefore as many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as innumerable as the sand which is by the sea shore, were fathered by one man, and him as good as dead.

我必多多賜福給你，我必使你的後裔大大增多，如同天上的星、海邊的沙。你的後裔必得仇敵的城門，

你曾說：『我必定厚待你，使你的後裔如同海邊的沙，多得不可勝數。』」

於是耶和華帶他到外面，說：「你向天觀看，去數星星，你能數得清嗎？」又對他說：「你的後裔將要如此。」

然而，以色列的人數必多如海沙，不可量，不可數。從前在甚麼地方對他們說「你們不是我的子民」，將來就在那裏稱他們為「永生神的兒子」。

正如天上的萬象不能數算，海邊的塵沙不能斗量，我必照樣使我僕人大衛的後裔和事奉我的利未人多起來。」

以色列啊，你的百姓雖多如海沙，惟有剩下的歸回。滅絕之事已成定局，公義必如水漲溢。

我要使你的後裔增多，好像天上的星，又要將這一切的地賜給你的後裔，並且地上的萬國都必因你的後裔得福，

他們和他們的眾軍都出來，一大隊人馬，多如海邊的沙，並有極多的戰車戰馬。

耶和華－你們的神使你們增多。看哪，你們今日好像天上的星那樣多。

你使他們的子孫多如天上的星，帶他們到你對他們祖先說要進去得為業之地。

求你記念你的僕人亞伯拉罕、以撒、以色列。你曾向他們指着自己起誓說：『我必使你們的後裔像天上的星那樣多，並且我要將所應許的這全地賜給你們的後裔，讓他們永遠承受為業。』」

出來要迷惑地上四方的列國，就是歌革和瑪各，使他們聚集爭戰。他們的人數多如海沙。

撒母耳對他們說：「你們在我手裏沒有找着甚麼，有耶和華在你們中間作證，也有他的受膏者今日作證。」他們說：「願耶和華作證。」

米甸人、亞瑪力人和所有東邊的人都散佈在平原，如同蝗蟲那樣多。他們的駱駝無數，多如海邊的沙。

你的後裔必多如海沙，你腹中所生的必多如沙粒。他的名絕不從我面前剪除，也不滅絕。」

以色列人二十歲以下的，大衛沒有記其數目；因耶和華曾應許，必加增以色列人如天上的星那樣多。

你們雖然曾像天上的星那樣多，卻因不聽從耶和華－你神的話，所剩的人丁就稀少了。

依我之計，要把如同海邊的沙那樣多的以色列眾人，從但直到別是巴，聚集到你這裏來，由你親自率領他們出戰。

關於以色列人，以賽亞喊着：「雖然以色列人多如海沙，得救的將是剩下的餘數，

猶大人和以色列人如同海邊的沙那樣多，都吃喝快樂。

都為施行殘暴而來，他們的臉面向東，聚集俘虜，多如塵沙。
