2AbramH87 saidH559, “O LordH136 1GodH3068, whatH4100 will You giveH5414 me, since I 2amH1980 childlessH6185, and the 3heirH1121H4943 of my houseH1004 is EliezerH461 of DamascusH1834?”

3And AbramH87 saidH559, “4SinceH2005 You have givenH5414 noH3808 5offspringH2233 to me, 6oneH1121 7bornH1121 in my houseH1004 is my heirH3423.”
