Genesis:15-17
gltv@Genesis:15:1 @ After these things the word of Jehovah came to Abram in a vision, saying, Do not fear, Abram; I am your shield, your reward will increase greatly.
gltv@Genesis:15:2 @ And Abram said, Lord Jehovah, what will You give to me since I am going childless and the son of the inheritance of my house is Eleazar of Damascus?
gltv@Genesis:15:3 @ And Abram said, Behold! You have given no seed to me; and lo, the son of my house is inheriting of me! And behold!
gltv@Genesis:15:4 @ And behold! The word of Jehovah came to him saying, This one shall not be your heir. But he that shall come forth out of your own bowels shall be your heir.
gltv@Genesis:15:5 @ And He brought him outside and said, Look now at the heavens and count the stars, if you are able to count them. And He said to him, So shall your seed be.
gltv@Genesis:15:6 @ And he believed in Jehovah. And He counted it to him for righteousness.
gltv@Genesis:15:7 @ And He said to him, I am Jehovah who caused you to come out of Ur of the Chaldeans, to give you this land to inherit it.
gltv@Genesis:15:8 @ And he said, My Lord Jehovah, by what shall I know that I shall inherit it?
gltv@Genesis:15:9 @ And He said to him, Take for Me a heifer three years old, and a she-goat three years old, and a ram three years old, and a turtledove, even a nestling.
gltv@Genesis:15:10 @ And he took all these for Him, and he divided them in the middle; and he laid each piece against one another, but he did not divide the bird.
gltv@Genesis:15:11 @ And the birds of prey came down on the carcasses, and Abram drove them away.
gltv@Genesis:15:12 @ And it happened, the sun was setting, and a deep sleep fell on Abram; ant behold, a terror of great darkness falling on him!
gltv@Genesis:15:13 @ And He said to Abram, You must surely know that your seed shall be an alien in a land not theirs; and they shall serve them. And they shall afflict then four hundred years;
gltv@Genesis:15:14 @ and I also will judge that nation whom they shall serve; and afterward they shall come out with great substance.
gltv@Genesis:15:15 @ And you shall come to you fathers in peace. You shall be buried in good old age.
gltv@Genesis:15:16 @ And in the fourth generation they shall come here again; for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full
gltv@Genesis:15:17 @ And it happened, the sun had gone down, and it was dark. Behold! A smoking furnace and a torch of fire that passed between those pieces!
gltv@Genesis:15:18 @ On that day Jehovah made a covenant with Abram, saying, I have given this land to your seed, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates,
gltv@Genesis:15:19 @ the Kenite, and the Kenizzite, and the Kadmonite,
gltv@Genesis:15:20 @ and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the giants,
gltv@Genesis:15:21 @ and the Amorite and the Canaanite, and the Girgashite, and the Jebusite.
gltv@Genesis:16:1 @ And Sarai, Abram's wife, did not bear to him; and to her belonged a female slave, an Egyptian, and her name was Hagar.
gltv@Genesis:16:2 @ And Sarai said to Abram, See, now, Jehovah has kept me from bearing; go in now to my slave-girl; perhaps I may be built up from her. And Abram listened to the voice of Sarai.
gltv@Genesis:16:3 @ And Sarai, Abram's wife, took her slave-girl, Hagar, the Egyptian, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife, after Abram had lived ten years in the land of Canaan.
gltv@Genesis:16:4 @ And he went in to Hagar and she conceived; and she saw that she had conceived, and her mistress was despised in her eyes.
gltv@Genesis:16:5 @ And Sarai said to Abram, My injury be upon you; I gave my slave-girl into your bosom, and she saw that she had conceived, and I was despised in her eyes. Let Jehovah judge between me and you.
gltv@Genesis:16:6 @ But Abram said to Sarai, See, your slave girl is in your hand. Do to her what is good in your eyes. And Sarai dealt harshly with her, and she fled from before her.
gltv@Genesis:16:7 @ And the Angel of Jehovah found her by a well of water in the wilderness; by the well in the way of Shur.
gltv@Genesis:16:8 @ And He said, Hagar, Sarai's slave-girl, where did you come from? And where do you go? And she said, I am fleeing from the face of my mistress, Sarai.
gltv@Genesis:16:9 @ And the Angel of Jehovah said to her, Return to your mistress and submit yourself under her hand.
gltv@Genesis:16:10 @ And the Angel of Jehovah said to her, I will exceedingly multiply your seed, so that it shall not be numbered for multitude.
gltv@Genesis:16:11 @ And the Angel of Jehovah said to her, Behold! You are with child and shall bear a son; and you shall call his name Ishmael, because Jehovah has attended to your affliction.
gltv@Genesis:16:12 @ And he shall be a wild ass of a man, his hand against all, and the hand of everyone against him; and he shall live before all his brothers.
gltv@Genesis:16:13 @ And she called the name of Jehovah, the One speaking to her, You, a God of vision! For she said, Even here I have looked after the One seeing me?
gltv@Genesis:16:14 @ On account of this, the well was called, The Well of the Living One Seeing Me. Behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.
gltv@Genesis:16:15 @ And Hagar bore a son to Abram, and Abram called the name of his son whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.

gltv@Genesis:17:2 @ and I will make My covenant between Me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly.
gltv@Genesis:17:3 @ And Abram fell on his face. And God spoke with him, saying,
gltv@Genesis:17:4 @ As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, and you shall be a father of many nations.
gltv@Genesis:17:5 @ And your name no longer shall be Abram; but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you a father of many nations.
gltv@Genesis:17:6 @ And I will make you very fruitful, exceedingly. And I will give you for nations. And kings shall come out of you.
gltv@Genesis:17:7 @ And I will establish My covenant between Me and you, and your seed after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to you and to your seed after you.
gltv@Genesis:17:8 @ And I will give to you and to your seed after you the land of your sojourning, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession and I will be their God.
gltv@Genesis:17:9 @ And God said to Abraham, You shall keep My covenant, you and your seed after you in their generations.
gltv@Genesis:17:10 @ This is My covenant which you shall keep, between Me and you and your seed after you: Every male child among you shall be circumcised
gltv@Genesis:17:11 @ And you shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin. And it shall be a token of the covenant between Me and you.
gltv@Genesis:17:12 @ And a son of eight days shall be circumcised among you, every male in your generation, he that is born in the house, or bought with silver from any son of a foreigner who is not of your seed.
gltv@Genesis:17:13 @ Surely the child of your house and the purchase of your money must be circumcised. And My covenant shall be in your flesh for a perpetual covenant.
gltv@Genesis:17:14 @ And an uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, his soul shall be cut off from his people; he has broken My covenant.
gltv@Genesis:17:15 @ And God said to Abraham, You shall not call your wife Sarai by her name Sarai, for Sarah shall be her name;
gltv@Genesis:17:16 @ and I have blessed her and have also given to you a son from her. Yea, I have blessed her and she shall become nations; kings of people shall be from her.
gltv@Genesis:17:17 @ And Abraham fell on his face and laughed. And he said in his heart, Shall one be born to a son of a hundred years? And shall Sarah bear, a daughter of ninety years?
gltv@Genesis:17:18 @ And Abraham said to God, Oh that Ishmael might live before You!
gltv@Genesis:17:19 @ And God said, Your wife Sarah truly shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name Isaac. And I have established My covenant with him for a perpetual covenant with his seed after him.
gltv@Genesis:17:20 @ And as to Ishmael, I have heard you. Behold, I have blessed him and will make him fruitful and will multiply him exceedingly. He shall father twelve princes, and I will make him a great nation.
gltv@Genesis:17:21 @ And I will establish My covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear to you at this time next year.
gltv@Genesis:17:22 @ And He finished talking with him. And God went up from Abraham.
gltv@Genesis:17:23 @ And Abraham took his son Ishmael, and all the ones born of his house, and all that were bought with his silver, every male among the men of the house of Abraham. And he circumcised the flesh of their foreskins in that same day, even as God spoke to him.
