17 that in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heavens, and as the sand which is upon the seashore. And thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies.
18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed. Because thou hast obeyed my voice.
