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:

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,

And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only[ son]:That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which[ is] upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.

For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation[ is] to them an end of all strife.Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed[ it] by an oath:That by two immutable things, in which[ it was] impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:

The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,

Thou wilt perform the truth to Jacob,[ and] the mercy to Abraham, which thou hast sworn unto our fathers from the days of old.

I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth[ in] righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.

Which[ covenant] he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac;And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law,[ and] to Israel[ for] an everlasting covenant:

For I have sworn by myself, saith the LORD, that Bozrah shall become a desolation, a reproach, a waste, and a curse; and all the cities thereof shall be perpetual wastes.

I will destroy also all the beasts thereof from beside the great waters; neither shall the foot of man trouble them any more, nor the hoofs of beasts trouble them.

But if ye will not hear these words, I swear by myself, saith the LORD, that this house shall become a desolation.
