[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] [38] [39] [40] [41] [42] [43] [44] [45] [46] [47] [48] [49] [50]

15:1 After these things the word of Jehovah came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, `and' thy exceeding great reward.

15:2 And Abram said, O Lord Jehovah, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless, and he that shall be possessor of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?

15:3 And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir.

15:4 And, behold, the word of Jehovah came unto him, saying, This man shall not be thine heir; But he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.

15:5 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and number the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.

15:6 And he believed in Jehovah; and he reckoned it to him for righteousness.

15:7 And he said unto him, I am Jehovah that brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.

15:8 And he said, O Lord Jehovah, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?

15:9 And he said unto him, Take me a heifer three years old, and a she-goat three years old, and a ram three years old, and a turtle-dove, and a young pigeon.

15:10 And he took him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid each half over against the other: but the birds divided he not.

15:11 And the birds of prey came down upon the carcasses, and Abram drove them away.

15:12 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, a horror of great darkness fell upon him.

15:13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be sojourners in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;

15:14 and also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.

15:15 But thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.

15:16 And in the fourth generation they shall come hither again; for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet full.

15:17 And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold, a smoking furnace, and a flaming torch that passed between these pieces.

15:18 In that day Jehovah made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:

15:19 the Kenite, and the Kenizzite, and the Kadmonite,

15:20 and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Rephaim,

15:21 and the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Girgashite, and the Jebusite.
