Genesis 15:1-3

1After these things 1the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision, saying, “2Do not fear, Abram, I am 3a shield to you; 4Your 5reward shall be very great.” 2Abram said, “O Lord 6God, what will You give me, since I 7am childless, and the 8heir of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?” 3And Abram said, “9Since You have given no 10offspring to me, 11one 12born in my house is my heir.”
