[1] After these things Yahweh’s word came to Abram in a vision, saying, “Don’t be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward.” [2] Abram said, “Lord§ Yahweh, what will you give me, since I go childless, and he who will inherit my estate is Eliezer of Damascus?” [3] Abram said, “Behold, you have given no children to me: and, behold, one born in my house is my heir.” [4] Behold, Yahweh’s word came to him, saying, “This man will not be your heir, but he who will come out of your own body will be your heir.” [5] Yahweh brought him outside, and said, “Look now toward the sky, and count the stars, if you are able to count them.” He said to Abram, “So your offspring will be.” [6] He believed in Yahweh, who credited it to him for righteousness. [7] He said to Abram, “I am Yahweh who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give you this land to inherit it.” [8] He said, “Lord Yahweh, how will I know that I will inherit it?” [9] He said to him, “Bring me a heifer three years old, a female goat three years old, a ram three years old, a turtledove, and a young pigeon.” [10] He brought him all these, and divided them in the middle, and laid each half opposite the other; but he didn’t divide the birds. [11] The birds of prey came down on the carcasses, and Abram drove them away. [12] When the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell on Abram. Now terror and great darkness fell on him. [13] He said to Abram, “Know for sure that your offspring will live as foreigners in a land that is not theirs, and will serve them. They will afflict them four hundred years. [14] I will also judge that nation, whom they will serve. Afterward they will come out with great wealth; [15] but you will go to your fathers in peace. You will be buried at a good old age. [16] In the fourth generation they will come here again, for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet full.” [17] It came to pass that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold, a smoking furnace and a flaming torch passed between these pieces. [18] In that day Yahweh made a covenant with Abram, saying, “I have given this land to your offspring, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates: [19] the land of the Kenites, the Kenizzites, the Kadmonites, [20] the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Rephaim, [21] the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.”

[6] And he believedH539(HiphPerf) in the Lord;H3068 and he countedH2803(QalImpf) it to him for righteousness.H6666 [7] And he saidH559(QalImpf) unto him, I [am] the LordH3068 that brought thee outH3318(HiphPerf) of UrH218 of the Chaldees,H3778 to giveH5414(QalInf) thee this landH776 to inheritH3423(QalInf) it. [8] And he said,H559(QalImpf) LordH136 God,H3069 wherebyH4100 shall I knowH3045(QalImpf) that I shall inherit it?H3423(QalImpf) [9] And he saidH559(QalImpf) unto him, TakeH3947(QalImpv) me an heiferH5697 of three years old,H8027(PualPtc) and a she goatH5795 of three years old,H8027(PualPtc) and a ramH352 of three years old,H8027(PualPtc) and a turtledove,H8449 and a young pigeon.H1469 [10] And he tookH3947(QalImpf) unto him all these, and dividedH1334(PielImpf) them in the midst,H8432 and laidH5414(QalImpf) eachH376 pieceH1335 one againstH7125(QalInf) another:H7453 but the birdsH6833 dividedH1334(QalPerf) he not. [11] And when the fowlsH5861 came downH3381(QalImpf) upon the carcases,H6297 AbramH87 drove them away.H5380(HiphImpf) [12] And when the sunH8121 was going down,H935(QalInf) a deep sleepH8639 fellH5307(QalPerf) upon Abram;H87 and, lo, an horrorH367 of greatH1419 darknessH2825 fellH5307(QalActPtc) upon him. [13] And he saidH559(QalImpf) unto Abram,H87 KnowH3045(QalImpf) of a suretyH3045(QalInf) that thy seedH2233 shall be a strangerH1616 in a landH776 [that is] not theirs, and shall serveH5647(QalPerf) them; and they shall afflictH6031(PielPerf) them fourH702 hundredH3967 years;H8141 [14] And also that nation,H1471 whom they shall serve,H5647(QalImpf) will I judge:H1777(QalActPtc) and afterwardH310 shall they come outH3318(QalImpf) with greatH1419 substance.H7399 [15] And thou shalt goH935(QalImpf) to thy fathersH1 in peace;H7965 thou shalt be buriedH6912(NiphImpf) in a goodH2896 old age.H7872 [16] But in the fourthH7243 generationH1755 they shall come hitherH2008 again:H7725(QalImpf) for the iniquityH5771 of the AmoritesH567 [is] not yetH2008 full.H8003 [17] And it came to pass, that, when the sunH8121 went down,H935(QalPerf) and it was dark,H5939 behold a smokingH6227 furnace,H8574 and a burningH784 lampH3940 that passedH5674(QalPerf) betweenH996 those pieces.H1506 [18] In the sameH1931 dayH3117 the LordH3068 madeH3772(QalPerf) a covenantH1285 with Abram,H87 saying,H559(QalInf) Unto thy seedH2233 have I givenH5414(QalPerf) this land,H776 from the riverH5104 of EgyptH4714 unto the greatH1419 river,H5104 the riverH5104 Euphrates:H6578 [19] The Kenites,H7017 and the Kenizzites,H7074 and the Kadmonites,H6935 [20] And the Hittites,H2850 and the Perizzites,H6522 and the Rephaims,H7497 [21] And the Amorites,H567 and the Canaanites,H3669 and the Girgashites,H1622 and the Jebusites.H2983
