And Abram trusted every word YAHWEH had spoken! And because of his faith, YAHWEH credited it to him as righteousness.

Afterwards, the word of YAHWEH came to Abram in a vision and said, “Abram, don’t yield to fear, for I am your Faithful Shield and your Abundant Reward.”

Then YAHWEH brought him outside his tent and said, “Gaze into the night sky. Go ahead and try to count the stars.” He continued, “Your seed will be as numerous as the stars!”

Immediately, the word of YAHWEH came to him: “No! Eliezer will not be your heir. I will give you a son from your own body to be your heir.”

Then YAHWEH said to Abram, “Know this: your descendants will live as strangers in a foreign country. They will be enslaved and mistreated for four hundred years.

But Abram replied, “Lord YAHWEH, what good is your reward if I remain childless? I’m about to die without a son, and my servant, Eliezer of Damascus, will inherit all my wealth.

On that day, YAHWEH entered into covenant with Abram: “I have given this land to your descendants, from the Egyptian border to the great river Euphrates

And after the fourth generation, your descendants will return here; for then the sin of the Amorites will be ripe for judgment.”
