1After310 these things1697 the word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 unto Abram87 in a vision4236, saying559, Fear3372 not, Abram87: I am thy shield4043, and thy exceeding3966 great7235 reward7939.
2And Abram87 said559, Lord136 GOD3069, what wilt thou give5414 me, seeing I go1980 childless6185, and the steward1121 4943 of my house1004 is this1931 Eliezer461 of Damascus1834?
3And Abram87 said559, Behold, to me thou hast given5414 no3808 seed2233: and, lo, one born1121 in my house1004 is mine heir3423.
4And, behold, the word1697 of the LORD3068 came unto him, saying559, This shall not be thine heir3423; but he that shall come forth3318 out of thine own bowels4578 shall be thine heir3423.
5And he brought him forth3318 abroad2351, and said559, Look5027 now toward heaven8064, and tell5608 the stars3556, if thou be able3201 to number5608 them: and he said559 unto him, So3541 shall thy seed2233 be.
6And he believed539 in the LORD3068; and he counted2803 it to him for righteousness6666.
7And he said559 unto him, I am the LORD3068 that brought thee out3318 of Ur218 of the Chaldees3778, to give5414 thee this land776 to inherit3423 it.
8And he said559, Lord136 GOD3069, whereby4100 shall I know3045 that I shall inherit it3423?
9And he said559 unto him, Take3947 me an heifer5697 of three years old8027, and a she goat5795 of three years old8027, and a ram352 of three years old8027, and a turtledove8449, and a young pigeon1469.
10And he took3947 unto him all these, and divided1334 them in the midst8432, and laid5414 each376 piece1335 one against7125 another7453: but the birds6833 divided1334 he not.
11And when the fowls5861 came down3381 upon the carcases6297, Abram87 drove them away5380.
12And when the sun8121 was going down935, a deep sleep8639 fell5307 upon Abram87; and, lo, an horror367 of great1419 darkness2825 fell5307 upon him.
13And he said559 unto Abram87, Know3045 of a surety3045 that thy seed2233 shall be a stranger1616 in a land776 that is not theirs, and shall serve5647 them; and they shall afflict6031 them four702 hundred3967 years8141;
14And also that nation1471, whom they shall serve5647, will I judge1777: and afterward310 3651 shall they come out3318 with great1419 substance7399.
15And thou shalt go935 to thy fathers1 in peace7965; thou shalt be buried6912 in a good2896 old age7872.
16But in the fourth7243 generation1755 they shall come hither2008 again7725: for the iniquity5771 of the Amorites567 is not yet2008 full8003.
17And it came to pass, that, when the sun8121 went down935, and it was dark5939, behold a smoking6227 furnace8574, and a burning784 lamp3940 that passed5674 between996 those pieces1506.
18In the same1931 day3117 the LORD3068 made3772 a covenant1285 with Abram87, saying559, Unto thy seed2233 have I given5414 this land776, from the river5104 of Egypt4714 unto the great1419 river5104, the river5104 Euphrates6578:
19The Kenites7017, and the Kenizzites7074, and the Kadmonites6935,
20And the Hittites2850, and the Perizzites6522, and the Rephaims7497,
21And the Amorites567, and the Canaanites3669, and the Girgashites1622, and the Jebusites2983.
