13 For God, having made the promise to Abraham, since He had no one greater to swear by, He swore by Himself, 14 saying, “Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you.” 15 And thus having waited patiently, he obtained the promise. 16 For men swear by the greater, and of all their disputes, an end for confirmation is the oath, 17 in which God, willing to show more abundantly the unchangeableness of His purpose to the heirs of the promise, guaranteed it by an oath, 18 so that by two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have strong encouragement, having fled for refuge to take hold of the hope being set before us, Hebrews 6:13-18, Berean Literal Bible.
