*
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 #
H3651shall 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 K @
