Genesis 22:16-24
16and said, “1By Myself I have sworn, declares the Lord, because you have done this thing and have not withheld your son, your only son, 17indeed I will greatly bless you, and I will greatly 2multiply your 3seed as the stars of the heavens and as 4the sand which is on the seashore; and 5your 6seed shall possess the gate of 7their enemies. 188In your 9seed all the nations of the earth shall 10be blessed, because you have 11obeyed My voice.” 1912So Abraham returned to his young men, and they arose and went together to Beersheba; and Abraham lived at Beersheba.
20Now it came about after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, “Behold, 13Milcah 14also has borne children to your brother Nahor: 21Uz his firstborn and Buz his brother and Kemuel the father of Aram 22and Chesed and Hazo and Pildash and Jidlaph and Bethuel.” 23Bethuel 15became the father of 16Rebekah; these eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham’s brother. 24His concubine, whose name was Reumah, 17also bore Tebah and Gaham and Tahash and Maacah.
