- After these things the word of Yahweh came to Abram in a vision, saying, "Don't be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward."
- Abram said, "Lord Yahweh, what will you give me, since I go childless, and he who will inherit my estate is Eliezer of Damascus?"
- Abram said, "Behold, to me you have given no seed: and, behold, one born in my house is my heir."
- Behold, the word of Yahweh came to him, saying, "This man will not be your heir, but he who will come forth out of your own body will be your heir."
- 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 shall your seed be."
- He believed in Yahweh; and he reckoned it to him for righteousness.
- He said to him, "I am Yahweh who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give you this land to inherit it."
- He said, "Lord Yahweh, how will I know that I will inherit it?"
- 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."
- He brought him all of these, and divided them in the middle, and laid each half opposite the other; but he didn't divide the birds.
- The birds of prey came down on the carcasses, and Abram drove them away.
- When the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell on Abram. Now terror and great darkness fell on him.
- He said to Abram, "Know for sure that your seed will live as foreigners in a land that is not theirs, and will serve them. They will afflict them four hundred years.
- I will also judge that nation, whom they will serve. Afterward they will come out with great wealth,
- but you will go to your fathers in peace. You will be buried in a good old age.
- In the fourth generation they will come here again, for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet full."
- 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.
- In that day Yahweh made a covenant with Abram, saying, "To your seed I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates:
- the Kenites, the Kenizzites, the Kadmonites,
- the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Rephaim,
- the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Girgashites, and the Jebusites."

- אחר הדברים האלה היה דבר־יהוה אל־אברם במחזה לאמר אל־תירא אברם אנכי מגן לך שכרך הרבה מאד׃
- ויאמר אברם אדני יהוה מה־תתן־לי ואנכי הולך ערירי ובן־משק ביתי הוא דמשק אליעזר׃
- ויאמר אברם הן לי לא נתתה זרע והנה בן־ביתי יורש אתי׃
- והנה דבר־יהוה אליו לאמר לא יירשך זה כי־אם אשר יצא ממעיך הוא יירשך׃
- ויוצא אתו החוצה ויאמר הבט־נא השמימה וספר הכוכבים אם־תוכל לספר אתם ויאמר לו כה יהיה זרעך׃
- והאמן ביהוה ויחשבה לו צדקה׃
- ויאמר אליו אני יהוה אשר הוצאתיך מאור כשדים לתת לך את־הארץ הזאת לרשתה׃
- ויאמר אדני יהוה במה אדע כי אירשנה׃
- ויאמר אליו קחה לי עגלה משלשת ועז משלשת ואיל משלש ותר וגוזל׃
- ויקח־לו את־כל־אלה ויבתר אתם בתוך ויתן איש־בתרו לקראת רעהו ואת־הצפר לא בתר׃
- וירד העיט על־הפגרים וישב אתם אברם׃
- ויהי השמש לבוא ותרדמה נפלה על־אברם והנה אימה חשכה גדלה נפלת עליו׃
- ויאמר לאברם ידע תדע כי־גר יהיה זרעך בארץ לא להם ועבדום וענו אתם ארבע מאות שנה׃
- וגם את־הגוי אשר יעבדו דן אנכי ואחרי־כן יצאו ברכש גדול׃
- ואתה תבוא אל־אבתיך בשלום תקבר בשיבה טובה׃
- ודור רביעי ישובו הנה כי לא־שלם עון האמרי עד־הנה׃
- ויהי השמש באה ועלטה היה והנה תנור עשן ולפיד אש אשר עבר בין הגזרים האלה׃
- ביום ההוא כרת יהוה את־אברם ברית לאמר לזרעך נתתי את־הארץ הזאת מנהר מצרים עד־הנהר הגדל נהר־פרת׃
- את־הקיני ואת־הקנזי ואת הקדמני׃
- ואת־החתי ואת־הפרזי ואת־הרפאים׃
- ואת־האמרי ואת־הכנעני ואת־הגרגשי ואת־היבוסי׃ ס

- His itaque transactis, factus est sermo Domini ad Abram per visionem dicens : Noli timere, Abram : ego protector tuus sum, et merces tua magna nimis.
- Dixitque Abram : Domine Deus, quid dabis mihi ? ego vadam absque liberis, et filius procuratoris domus meæ iste Damascus Eliezer.
- Addiditque Abram : Mihi autem non dedisti semen, et ecce vernaculus meus, hæres meus erit.
- Statimque sermo Domini factus est ad eum, dicens : Non erit hic hæres tuus, sed qui egredietur de utero tuo, ipsum habebis hæredem.
- Eduxitque eum foras, et ait illi : Suscipe cælum, et numera stellas, si potes. Et dixit ei : Sic erit semen tuum.
- Credidit Abram Deo, et reputatum est illi ad justitiam.
- Dixitque ad eum : Ego Dominus qui eduxi te de Ur Chaldæorum ut darem tibi terram istam, et possideres eam.
- At ille ait : Domine Deus, unde scire possum quod possessurus sim eam ?
- Et respondens Dominus : Sume, inquit, mihi vaccam trienem, et capram trimam, et arietem annorum trium, turturem quoque et columbam.
- Qui tollens universa hæc, divisit ea per medium, et utrasque partes contra se altrinsecus posuit ; aves autem non divisit.
- Descenderuntque volucres super cadavera, et abigebat eas Abram.
- Cumque sol occumberet, sopor irruit super Abram, et horror magnus et tenebrosus invasit eum.
- Dictumque est ad eum : Scito prænoscens quod peregrinum futurum sit semen tuum in terra non sua, et subjicient eos servituti, et affligent quadringentis annis.
- Verumtamen gentem, cui servituri sunt, ego judicabo : et post hæc egredientur cum magna substantia.
- Tu autem ibis ad patres tuos in pace, sepultus in senectute bona.
- Generatione autem quarta revertentur huc : necdum enim completæ sunt iniquitates Amorrhæorum usque ad præsens tempus.
- Cum ergo occubuisset sol, facta est caligo tenebrosa, et apparuit clibanus fumans, et lampas ignis transiens inter divisiones illas.
- In illo die pepigit Dominus fœdus cum Abram, dicens : Semini tuo dabo terram hanc a fluvio Ægypti usque ad fluvium magnum Euphraten,
- Cinæos, et Cenezæos, Cedmonæos,
- et Hethæos, et Pherezæos, Raphaim quoque,
- et Amorrhæos, et Chananæos, et Gergesæos, et Jebusæos.

- 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.
- 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?
- And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir.
- 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.
- 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.
- And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.
- 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.
- And he said, Lord GOD, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?
- 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.
- 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.
- And when the fowls came down upon the carcases, Abram drove them away.
- And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.
- 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;
- And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.
- And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.
- But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.
- 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.
- 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:
- The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites,
- And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims,
- And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.
