夫上帝許亞伯拉罕時、因無大於己者可指而誓、乃指己而誓、

且未有大於上帝者、其許亞伯拉罕時、指己而誓、

昔天、主許亞伯拉罕時、因無大於己可指而誓者、則指己而誓云、

方天主之授恩諾於亞伯漢也、憑己而誓曰：

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

When God made his promise to Abraham, God gave his word. There was no one greater than himself to promise by. So he promised by making an appeal to himself.

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

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:

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

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

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

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

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

For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,

Now when God made his promise to Abraham, since he could swear by no one greater, he swore by himself,

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

耶和华的使者第二次从天上呼叫亚伯拉罕说：“耶和华说：‘你既行了这事，不留下你的儿子，就是你独生的儿子，我便指着自己起誓说：论福，我必赐大福给你；论子孙，我必叫你的子孙多起来，如同天上的星，海边的沙。你子孙必得着仇敌的城门，并且地上万国都必因你的后裔得福，因为你听从了我的话。’”

人都是指着比自己大的起誓，并且以起誓为实据，了结各样的争论。照样，神愿意为那承受应许的人格外显明他的旨意是不更改的，就起誓为证。藉这两件不更改的事，神决不能说谎，好叫我们这逃往避难所、持定摆在我们前头指望的人可以大得勉励。

就是他对我们祖宗亚伯拉罕所起的誓，

你必按古时起誓应许我们列祖的话，向雅各发诚实，向亚伯拉罕施慈爱。

我指着自己起誓，我口所出的话是凭公义，并不返回：万膝必向我跪拜；万口必凭我起誓。

就是与亚伯拉罕所立的约，向以撒所起的誓。他又将这约向雅各定为律例，向以色列定为永远的约，

耶和华说：我指着自己起誓，波斯拉必令人惊骇、羞辱、咒诅，并且荒凉。他的一切城邑必变为永远的荒场。”

我必从埃及多水旁除灭所有的走兽；人脚兽蹄必不再搅浑这水。

你们若不听这些话，耶和华说：我指着自己起誓，这城必变为荒场。’”
