15:1 ¶
After°
these°
things°
the word°
of Yahweh°
came°°
unto°
Abram°
in a vision,°
saying,°°
Fear°°
not,°
Abram:°
I°
[am] thy shield,°
[and] thy exceeding°
great°°
reward.° |
|
15:2
And Abram said, Master [and] Lord, what wilt thou give me? whereas I am departing without a child, but the son of Masek my home-born female slave, this Eliezer of Damascus [is mine heir]. |
|
15:2
And Abram°
said,°°
Adonai°
Yahweh,°
what°
wilt thou give°°
me, seeing I°
go°°
childless,°
and the steward°°
of my house°
[is] this°
Eliezer°
of Damascus?° |
|
15:3
And Abram said, [I am grieved] since thou hast given me no seed, but my home-born [servant] shall succeed me. |
|
15:3
And Abram°
said,°°
Behold,°
to me thou hast given°°
no°
seed:°
and, lo,°
one born°
in my house°
is mine heir.°° |
|
15:4
And immediately there was a voice of the Lord to him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come out of thee shall be thine heir. |
|
15:4
And, behold,°
the word°
of Yahweh°
[came] unto°
him, saying,°°
This°
shall not°
be thine heir;°°
but°°
he that°
shall come forth°°
out of thine own bowels°°
shall be thine heir.°° |
|
15:5
And he brought him out and said to him, Look up now to heaven, and count the stars, if thou shalt be able to number them fully, and he said, Thus shall thy seed be. |
|
15:5
And he brought him forth°°°
abroad,°
and said,°°
Look°°
now°
toward heaven,°
and tell°°
the stars,°
if°
thou be able°°
to number°°
them: and he said°°
unto him, So°
shall thy seed°
be.° |
|
15:6
And Abram believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness. |
|
15:6
And he believed°°
in Yahweh;°
and he counted°°
it to him for righteousness.° |
|
15:7
And he said to him, I am God that brought thee out of the land of the Chaldeans, so as to give thee this land to inherit. |
|
15:7
And he said°°
unto°
him, I°
[am] Yahweh°
that°
brought°
thee out°°
of Ur°°
of the Chaldees,°
to give°°
thee°
this°
land°
to inherit°°
it. |
|
15:8
And he said, Master [and] Lord, how shall I know that I shall inherit it? |
|
15:8
And he said,°°
Adonai°
Yahweh,°
whereby°
shall I know°°
that°
I shall inherit°
it?°° |
|
15:9
And he said to him, Take for me an heifer in her third year, and a she-goat in her third year, and a ram in his third year, and a dove and a pigeon. |
|
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
So he took to him all these, and divided them in the midst, and set them opposite to each other, but the birds he did not divide. |
|
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 birds came down upon the bodies, [even] upon the divided parts of them, and Abram sat down by them. |
|
15:11
And when the fowls°
came down°°
upon°
the carcases,°
Abram°
drove them away.°°° |
|
15:12
And about sunset a trance fell upon Abram, and lo! a great gloomy terror falls upon him. |
|
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 it was said to Abram, Thou shalt surely know that thy seed shall be a sojourner in a land not their won, and they shall enslave them, and afflict them, and humble them four hundred years. |
|
15:13
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;° |
|
15:14
And the nation whomsoever they shall serve I will judge; and after this, they shall come forth hither with much property. |
|
15:14
And also°°
that nation,°
whom°
they shall serve,°°
will I°
judge:°°
and afterward°°
shall they come out°°
with great°
substance.° |
|
15:15
But thou shalt depart to thy fathers in peace, nourished in a good old age. |
|
15:15
And thou°
shalt go°°
to°
thy fathers°
in peace;°
thou shalt be buried°°
in a good°
old age.° |
|
15:16
And in the fourth generation they shall return hither, for the sins of the Amorites are not yet filled up, even until now. |
|
15:16
But in the fourth°
generation°
they shall come hither°
again:°°°
for°
the iniquity°
of the Amorites°
[is] not°
yet°°
full.° |
|
15:17
And when the sun was about to set, there was a flame, and behold a smoking furnace and lamps of fire, which passed between these divided pieces. |
|
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.° |
