13For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he could swear by no one greater, he swore by himself,
MSG
13When God made his promise to Abraham, he backed it to the hilt, putting his own reputation on the line.

14saying, “Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you.”
MSG
14He said, "I promise that I'll bless you with everything I have—bless and bless and bless!"

19This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and entering into that which is within the veil;
MSG
19It's an unbreakable spiritual lifeline, reaching past all appearances right to the very presence of God
