Revised Version 1895
Genesis 15:7-17
7And he saidH559 unto him, I am the LORDH3068 that broughtH3318 thee outH3318 of Ur of the ChaldeesH3778, to giveH5414 thee this landH776 to inheritH3423 it.
8And he saidH559, O LordH136 GODH136, whereby shall I knowH3045 that I shall inheritH3423 it?
9And he saidH559 unto him, TakeH3947 meH413 an heiferH5697 of threeH8027 years oldH8027, and a she-goat of threeH8027 years oldH8027, and a ramH352 of threeH8027 years oldH8027, and a turtledoveH8449, and a youngH1469 pigeonH1469.
10And he tookH3947 him allH3605 theseH428, and divided them in the midstH8432, and laidH5414 eachH376 halfH1335 over againstH7125 the otherH7453: but the birdsH6833 divided he notH3808.
11And the birdsH5861 of preyH5861 cameH3381 downH3381 uponH5921 the carcases, and AbramH87 droveH5380 them awayH5380.
12And when the sunH8121 was goingH935 downH5307, a deepH8639 sleepH8639 fellH5307 uponH5921 AbramH87; and, loH2009, an horror of greatH1419 darknessH2825 fellH5307 uponH5921 him.
13And he saidH559 unto AbramH87, KnowH3045 of a surety that thy seedH2233 shall be a strangerH1616 in a landH776 that is notH3808 theirs, and shall serveH5647 them; and they shall afflictH6031 them fourH702 hundredH3967 yearsH8141;
14and also that nationH1471, whomH834 they shall serveH5647, will I judgeH1777: and afterwardH310 shall they comeH3318 outH3318 with greatH1419 substance.
15But thou shalt goH935 to thy fathersH1 in peaceH7965; thou shalt be buriedH6912 in a goodH2896 oldH7872 ageH7872.
16And in the fourthH7243 generationH1755 they shall comeH7725 hither againH7725: for the iniquityH5771 of the AmoriteH567 is notH3808 yet fullH8003.
17And it cameH935 to passH5674, that, when the sunH8121 wentH935 downH428, and it was darkH5939, beholdH2009 a smokingH6227 furnaceH8574, and a flamingH784 torchH3940 that passedH5674 betweenH996 theseH428 piecesH1506.
