创14:24save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men who have gone with me -- Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre -- they take their portion.'

创15:1After these things hath the word of Jehovah been unto Abram in a vision, saying, 'Fear not, Abram, I am a shield to thee, thy reward is exceeding great.'

创15:2And Abram saith, 'Lord Jehovah, what dost Thou give to me, and I am going childless? and an acquired son in my house is Demmesek Eliezer.'

创15:3And Abram saith, 'Lo, to me Thou hast not given seed, and lo, a domestic doth heir me.'

创15:4And lo, the word of Jehovah is unto him, saying, 'This one doth not heir thee; but he who cometh out from thy bowels, he doth heir thee;'

创15:5and He bringeth him out without, and saith, 'Look attentively, I pray thee, towards the heavens, and count the stars, if thou art able to count them;' and He saith to him, 'Thus is thy seed.'

创15:6And he hath believed in Jehovah, and He reckoneth it to him -- righteousness.

创15:7And He saith unto him, 'I am Jehovah who brought thee out from Ur of the Chaldees, to give to thee this land to possess it;'

创15:8and he saith, 'Lord Jehovah, whereby do I know that I possess it?'

创15:9And He saith unto him, 'Take for Me a heifer of three years, and a she-goat of three years, and a ram of three years, and a turtle-dove, and a young bird;'

创15:10and he taketh to him all these, and separateth them in the midst, and putteth each piece over against its fellow, but the bird he hath not divided;

创15:11and the ravenous birds come down upon the carcases, and Abram causeth them to turn back.

创15:12And the sun is about to go in, and deep sleep hath fallen upon Abram, and lo, a terror of great darkness is falling upon him;

创15:13and He saith to Abram, 'knowing -- know that thy seed is a sojourner in a land not theirs, and they have served them, and they have afflicted them four hundred years,

创15:14and the nation also whom they serve I judge, and after this they go out with great substance;

创15:15and thou -- thou comest in unto thy fathers in peace; thou art buried in a good old age;

创15:16and the fourth generation doth turn back hither, for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet complete.'

创15:17And it cometh to pass -- the sun hath gone in, and thick darkness hath been -- and lo, a furnace of smoke, and a lamp of fire, which hath passed over between those pieces.

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

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