Galatians 3:26-29 GNB
(26) It is through faith that all of you are God's children in union with Christ Jesus. (27) You were baptized [drawn by God's spirit - John 6:44] into union with Christ, [or, been born again - John 3:1-21] and now you are clothed, so to speak, with the life of Christ himself. (28) So there is no difference between Jews and Gentiles, between slaves and free people, between men and women; you are all one in union with Christ Jesus. (29) If you belong to Christ, then you are the descendants of Abraham and will receive what God has promised. (Gal 3:7-9)

If you are a Christian, you should take special note of these verses.
When you read any of the promises made to Abraham, or to Jacob (Israel) or Abraham's other descendants, you can know those promises apply to you through your faith in Christ.
You will have what God has promised...

Galatians 3:26-29 NWT
26 You are all, in fact, sons of God through your faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For all of you who were baptized [drawn by God's spirit - John 6:44] into Christ have put on Christ. [Or, been born again. - John 3:1-21] 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor freeman, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one [person] in union with Christ Jesus. 29 Moreover, if you belong to Christ, you are really Abraham's seed, heirs with reference to a promise. (Gal 3:7-9)

Galatians 3:26-29 ESV
(26) for in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith. (27) For as many of you as were baptized [drawn by God's spirit - John 6:44] into Christ [or, been born again - John 3:1-21] have put on Christ. (28) There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. (29) And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to promise. (Gal 3:7-9)

Galatians 3:26-29 CEV
(26) All of you are God's children because of your faith in Christ Jesus. (27) And when you were baptized, [drawn by God's spirit - John 6:44] it was as though you had put on Christ [Or, been born again - John 3:1-21] in the same way you put on new clothes. (28) Faith in Christ Jesus is what makes each of you equal with each other, whether you are a Jew or a Greek, a slave or a free person, a man or a woman. (29) So if you belong to Christ, you are now part of Abraham's family, and you will be given what God has promised. (Gal 3:7-9)

Galatians 3:26-29 BBE
(26) Because you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. (27) For all those of you who were given baptism [drawn by God's spirit - John 6:44] into Christ [or, been born again John 3:1-21] did put on Christ. (28) There is no Jew or Greek, servant or free, male or female: because you are all one in Jesus Christ. (29) And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and yours is the heritage by the right of God's undertaking given to Abraham. (Gal 3:7-9)
