UKJV - Genesis - 15

15:1  After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am your shield, and your exceeding great reward.

15:2  And Abram said, LORD God, what will you give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus?

15:3  And Abram said, Behold, to me you have given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir.

15:4  And, behold, the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, This shall not be your heir; but he that shall come forth out of your own bowels shall be your heir.

15:5  And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if you be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall your seed be.

15:6  And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.

15:7  And he said unto him, I am the LORD that brought you out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give you this land to inherit it.

15:8  And he said, LORD God, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?

15:9  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.

15:10  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.

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

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

15:13  And he said unto Abram, Know certainly that your seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not their's, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;

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

15:15  And you shall go to your fathers in peace; you shall be buried in a good old age.

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

15:17  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.

15:18  In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto your seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:

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

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

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