ylt @Genesis:15:1 @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 .' ylt @Genesis:15:2 @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 .' ylt @Genesis:15:3 @And Abram saith , 'Lo , to me Thou hast not given seed , and lo , a domestic doth heir me .' ylt @Genesis:15:4 @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 ;' ylt @Genesis:15:5 @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 .' ylt @Genesis:15:6 @And he hath believed in Jehovah , and He reckoneth it to him -- righteousness . ylt @Genesis:15:7 @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 ;' ylt @Genesis:15:8 @and he saith , 'Lord Jehovah , whereby do I know that I possess it ?' ylt @Genesis:15:9 @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 ;' ylt @Genesis:15:10 @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 ; ylt @Genesis:15:11 @and the ravenous birds come down upon the carcases , and Abram causeth them to turn back . ylt @Genesis:15:12 @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 ; ylt @Genesis:15:13 @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 , ylt @Genesis:15:14 @and the nation also whom they serve I judge , and after this they go out with great substance ; ylt @Genesis:15:15 @and thou -- thou comest in unto thy fathers in peace ; thou art buried in a good old age ; ylt @Genesis:15:16 @and the fourth generation doth turn back hither , for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet complete .' ylt @Genesis:15:17 @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 . ylt @Genesis:15:18 @In 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 , ylt @Genesis:15:19 @with the Kenite , and the Kenizzite , and the Kadmonite , ylt @Genesis:15:20 @and the Hittite , and the Perizzite , and the Rephaim , ylt @Genesis:15:21 @and the Amorite , and the Canaanite , and the Girgashite , and the Jebusite .' ylt @Genesis:16:1 @And Sarai , Abram 's wife , hath not borne to him , and she hath an handmaid , an Egyptian , and her name [is ] Hagar ;
