1 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect. |
2 And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly. |
3 And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying, |
4 As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations. |
5 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee. |
6 And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee. |
7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee. |
8 And I will give unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God. |
