Genesis 13:14-18

14The Lord said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him, “1Now lift up your eyes and look from the place where you are, 2northward and southward and eastward and westward;

153for all the land which you see, 4I will give it to you and to your 5descendants forever.

16I will make your 6descendants 7as the dust of the earth, so that if anyone can number the dust of the earth, then your 8descendants can also be numbered.

17Arise, 9walk about the land through its length and breadth; for 10I will give it to you.”

18Then Abram moved his tent and came and dwelt by the 1112oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and there he built 13an altar to the Lord.
