Genesis 17:2-8

2And I will set my covenant between me and thee, and will very greatly multiply thee.

3And Abram fell on his face; and 1God talked with him, saying,

4It is I: behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of a multitude of nations.

5And thy name shall no more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of a multitude of nations have I made thee.

6And I will make thee exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.

7And I will establish my covenant between me and thee, and thy seed after thee in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be a 2God to thee, and to thy seed after thee.

8And I give to thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land of thy sojourning, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be a 3God to them.
