Genesis 17:1-9

1Now when Abram was ninety-nine years old, 1the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am 2God 3Almighty; Walk before Me, and be 45blameless.2I will 6establish My 7covenant between Me and you, And I will 8multiply you exceedingly.” 3Abram 9fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying,4“As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, And you will be the father of a 10multitude of nations.5No longer shall your name be called 11Abram, But 12your name shall be 13Abraham; For 14I have made you the father of a multitude of nations. 6I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you, and 15kings will come forth from you. 7I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your 16descendants after you throughout their generations for an 17everlasting covenant, 18to be God to you and 19to your 20descendants after you. 821I will give to you and to your 22descendants after you, the land of your sojournings, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and 23I will be their God.”

9God said further to Abraham, “Now as for you, 24you shall keep My covenant, you and your 25descendants after you throughout their generations.
