Young's Literal Translation
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
.
After 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. '
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 saith
, `
Lord Jehovah
, what dost
Thou give to
me, and
I am
going
childless ?
and an
acquired
son
in
my house is Demmesek
Eliezer .'
And Abram said
, Behold
, to me thou hast given no
seed :
and
, lo, one
born
in
my
house
is
mine
heir.
And Abram saith
, `Lo
, to me Thou hast not
given seed, and
lo, a
domestic
doth
heir me
. '
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 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;'
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 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. '
And he believed in the
LORD;
and he counted
it to him for
righteousness.
And he hath
believed in Jehovah,
and He reckoneth
it to him --
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 saith
unto him, `
I `
am '
Jehovah
who
brought thee out from
Ur of the Chaldees, to give to
thee this land to possess
it ;'
And he said
, LORD God
, whereby shall
I know that I shall
inherit
it?
and he saith
, `
Lord Jehovah
, whereby do
I know that I possess
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 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;'
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 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;
And when
the fowls
came
down upon the carcasses
, Abram drove
them away
.
and the ravenous
birds
come
down upon the carcases
, and
Abram causeth
them to
turn
back
.
And when
the sun was
going
down
, a
deep sleep fell
upon Abram ;
and
, lo, an
horror
of great darkness fell
upon him .
And 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 ;
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 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 ,
And also
that
nation ,
whom they shall
serve ,
will
I judge :
and afterward
shall
they come
out with great substance .
and the
nation also
whom they serve I judge ,
and after
this
they go
out with great substance ;
And thou shalt
go
to
thy fathers in peace; thou shalt
be
buried in a good old age .
and thou --
thou
comest
in
unto
thy fathers in peace; thou art
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
the fourth generation doth
turn
back
hither ,
for the iniquity of the Amorite
is not yet complete
. '

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.
And 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.
In the
same
day the
LORD
made a
covenant
with Abram, saying, Unto

I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:

day hath

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,

, and the Kenizzites
, and the Kadmonites
,
with
the Kenite
, and the Kenizzite
, and the Kadmonite
,
And the Hittites
, and the Perizzites
, and the Rephaim,
and the Hittite
, and the Perizzite
, and the Rephaim,

, and the Canaanites
, and the Girgashites
, and the Jebusites
.
