Genesis 17:2-8

2Then I will confirm my covenant between me and you, and I will give you a multitude of descendants.”

3Abram bowed down with his face to the ground, and God said to him,

4“As for me, this is my covenant with you: You will be the father of a multitude of nations.

5No longer will your name be Abram. Instead, your name will be Abraham because I will make you the father of a multitude of nations.

6I will make you extremely fruitful. I will make nations of you, and kings will descend from you.

7I will confirm my covenant as a perpetual covenant between me and you. It will extend to your descendants after you throughout their generations. I will be your God and the God of your descendants after you.

8I will give the whole land of Canaan – the land where you are now residing – to you and your descendants after you as a permanent possession. I will be their God.”
