Genesis 15:7-17
7And he saidH559 unto him, I am Jehovah that broughtH3318 thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to giveH5414 thee this landH776 to inheritH3423 it. 8And he saidH559, O LordH136 Jehovah, whereby shall I knowH3045 that I shall inheritH3423 it? 9And he saidH559 unto him, TakeH3947 me a heiferH5697 threeH8027 years oldH8027, and a she-goat threeH8027 years oldH8027, and a ramH352 threeH8027 years oldH8027, and a turtle-dove, and a youngH1469 pigeon. 10And he tookH3947 him all these, and divided them in the midstH8432, and laid each half over against the other: but the birdsH6833 divided he not. 11And the birdsH5861 of preyH5861 cameH3381 downH3381 upon the carcasses, and AbramH87 drove them away.
12And when the sunH8121 wasH1961 goingH935 downH5307, a deepH8639 sleepH8639 fellH5307 upon AbramH87; and, lo, a horror of greatH1419 darknessH2825 fellH5307 upon him. 13And he saidH559 unto AbramH87, KnowH3045 of a surety that thy seedH2233 shall beH1961 sojournersH1616 in a landH776 that is not theirs, and shall serveH5647 them; and they shall afflictH6031 them fourH702 hundredH3967 yearsH8141; 14and alsoH1571 that nationH1471, whom they shall serveH5647, will I judgeH1777: and afterward shall they comeH3318 out with greatH1419 substance. 15But thou shalt goH935 to thy fathersH1 in peaceH7965; thou shalt be buriedH6912 in a goodH2896 oldH7872 ageH7872. 16And in the fourthH7243 generationH1755 they shall come hither again: for the iniquityH5771 of the AmoriteH567 is not yet fullH8003. 17And it cameH935 to passH5674, that, when the sunH8121 wentH935 down, and it wasH1961 dark, behold, a smoking furnaceH8574, and a flaming torchH3940 that passedH5674 between these pieces.
