12:1Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:

12:7And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.

15:7And 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.

15:8And he said, Lord GOD, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?

15:9And 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.

15:10And 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.

15:11And when the fowls came down upon the carcases, Abram drove them away.

15:12And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.

15:13And 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;

15:14And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.

15:15And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.

15:16But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.

15:17And 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.

15:18In 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:

15:19The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites,

15:20And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims,

15:21And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.
