1After these things, the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision, saying, Have no fear, Abram: I will keep you safe, and great will be your reward.
2And Abram said, What will you give me? for I have no child and this Eliezer of Damascus will have all my wealth after me.
3And Abram said, You have given me no child, and a servant in my house will get the heritage.
4Then said the Lord, This man will not get the heritage, but a son of your body will have your property after you.
5And he took him out into the open air, and said to him, Let your eyes be lifted to heaven, and see if the stars may be numbered; even so will your seed be.
6And he had faith in the Lord, and it was put to his account as righteousness.
7And he said to him, I am the Lord, who took you from Ur of the Chaldees, to give you this land for your heritage.
