GE-15:1 After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram
in a vision,
saying, Fear not, Abram: I [am] thy shield, [and] thy exceeding
great reward.
GE-15:2 And Abram said, Lord GOD, what wilt thou give me,
seeing I go
childless, and the steward of my house [is] this Eliezer of
Damascus?
GE-15:3 And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed:
and, lo, one
born in my house is mine heir.
GE-15:4 And, behold, the word of the LORD [came] unto him,
saying, This shall
not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own
bowels shall
be thine heir.
GE-15:5 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now
toward heaven,
and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said
unto him, So
shall thy seed be.
GE-15:6 And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him
for
righteousness.
GE-15:7 And he said unto him, I [am] the LORD that brought thee
out of Ur of
the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.
GE-15:8 And he said, Lord GOD, whereby shall I know that I
shall inherit it?
GE-15:9 And he said unto him, Take me an heifer of three years
old, and a she
goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a
turtledove, and a
young pigeon.
GE-15:10 And he took unto him all these, and divided them in
the midst, and
laid each piece one against another: but the birds divided he
not.
GE-15:11 And when the fowls came down upon the carcases, Abram
drove them
away.
GE-15:12 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell
upon Abram; and,
lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.
GE-15:13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed
shall be a
stranger in a land [that is] not theirs, and shall serve them;
and they shall
afflict them four hundred years;
GE-15:14 And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I
judge: and
afterward shall they come out with great substance.
GE-15:15 And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt
be buried in a
good old age.
GE-15:16 But in the fourth generation they shall come hither
again: for the
iniquity of the Amorites [is] not yet full.
GE-15:17 And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and
it was dark,
behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between
those pieces.
GE-15:18 In the same day the LORD 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:
GE-15:19 The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites,
GE-15:20 And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims,
GE-15:21 And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the
Girgashites, and the
Jebusites.
