From a fully vowelled text
وَتَيَقَّنَ أَنَّ مَا وَعَدَ بِهِ هُوَ قَادِرٌ أَنْ يَفْعَلَهُ أَيْضًا.And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.Romans 4:21, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
وَهُمْ إِنْ لَمْ يَثْبُتُوا فِي عَدَمِ الإِيمَانِ سَيُطَعَّمُونَ. لأَنَّ اللهَ قَادِرٌ أَنْ يُطَعِّمَهُمْ أَيْضًا.And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.Romans 11:23, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
فَيَوْمَ تَخْرُجُ وَتَعْبُرُ وَادِيَ قَدْرُونَ، اعْلَمَنَّ بِأَنَّكَ مَوْتًا تَمُوتُ، وَيَكُونُ دَمُكَ عَلَى رَأْسِكَ».For it shall be, that on the day thou goest out, and passest over the brook Kidron, thou shalt know for certain that thou shalt surely die: thy blood shall be upon thine own head.1 Kings 2:37, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
