2012. Verse 6 And I will make you more and more fruitful, and I will make nations of you, and kings will come out of you.

'I will make you more and more fruitful' means endless fruitfulness of good. 'And I will make nations of you' means that all good comes from Him. 'And kings will come out of you' means that all truth comes from Him.
