New International Version
Genesis 17:2-8
2Then I will make my covenant between me and you and will greatly increase your numbers.”
3Abram fell facedown, and God said to him,
4“As for me, this is my covenant with you: You will be the father of many nations.
5No longer will you be called Abram; your name will be Abraham, for I have made you a father of many nations.
6I will make you very fruitful; I will make nations of you, and kings will come from you.
7I will establish my covenant as an everlasting covenant between me and you and your descendants after you for the generations to come, to be your God and the God of your descendants after you.
8The whole land of Canaan, where you now reside as a foreigner, I will give as an everlasting possession to you and your descendants after you; and I will be their God.”
