That's why God told Abraham the good news that all nations would be blessed because of him. (9) This means that everyone who has faith (in Christ) will share in the blessings that were given to Abraham because of his faith. (Gal 3:29)

You will note the reference windows often include more than one translation of the Bible. The reason is to strive to gain the best possible understanding of the original Hebrew and Greek. Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us. Considering several translations gives the benefit of the understanding of several translation committees or individuals.
