15:1  After these things, the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision, saying, Have no fear, Abram: I will keep you safe, and great will be your reward.
15:2  And Abram said, What will you give me? for I have no child and this Eliezer of Damascus will have all my wealth after me.
15:3  And Abram said, You have given me no child, and a servant in my house will get the heritage.
15:4  Then said the Lord, This man will not get the heritage, but a son of your body will have your property after you.
15:5  And he took him out into the open air, and said to him, Let your eyes be lifted to heaven, and see if the stars may be numbered; even so will your seed be.
15:6  And he had faith in the Lord, and it was put to his account as righteousness.
15:7  And he said to him, I am the Lord, who took you from Ur of the Chaldees, to give you this land for your heritage.
15:8  And he said, O Lord God, how may I be certain that it will be mine?
15:9  And he said, Take a young cow of three years old, and a she-goat of three years old, and a sheep of three years old, and a dove and a young pigeon.
15:10  All these he took, cutting them in two and putting one half opposite the other, but not cutting the birds in two.
15:11  And evil birds came down on the bodies, but Abram sent them away.
15:12  Now when the sun was going down, a deep sleep came on Abram, and a dark cloud of fear.
15:13  And he said to Abram, Truly, your seed will be living in a land which is not theirs, as servants to a people who will be cruel to them for four hundred years;
15:14  But I will be the judge of that nation whose servants they are, and they will come out from among them with great wealth.
15:15  As for you, you will go to your fathers in peace; at the end of a long life you will be put in your last resting-place.
15:16  And in the fourth generation they will come back here; for at present the sin of the Amorite is not full.
15:17  Then when the sun went down and it was dark, he saw a smoking fire and a flaming light which went between the parts of the bodies.
15:18  In that day the Lord made an agreement with Abram, and said, To your seed have I given this land from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates:
15:19  The Kenite, the Kenizzite, and the Kadmonite,
15:20  And the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Rephaim,
15:21  And the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Girgashite, and the Jebusite.
