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

3AbramH87 also saidH559, “4SinceH2005 You have givenH5414 me noH3808 5sonH2233, 6oneH1121 who has been 7bornH1121 in my houseH1004 isH3423 my heirH3423.”

4Then beholdH2009, the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 came to him, sayingH559, “ThisH2088 man will not beH3423 your heirH3423; 8but one whoH834 will comeH3318 fromH3318 your own 9bodyH4578 shall beH3423 your heirH3423.”
