01:014:023 That I will not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and
           that I will not take any thing that is thine, lest thou
           shouldest say, I have made Abram rich: 

01:014:024 Save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion
           of the men which went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre; let
           them take their portion.

01:015:001 After these things the word of the lord came unto Abram in a
           vision, saying, Fear not, Abram:  I am thy shield, and thy
           exceeding great reward.

01:015:002 And Abram said, lord God, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go
           childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of
           Damascus?

01:015:003 And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed:  and,
           lo, one born in my house is mine heir.

01:015:004 And, behold, the word of the lord came unto him, saying, This
           shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of
           thine own bowels shall be thine heir.

01:015:005 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward
           heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: 
           and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.

01:015:006 And he believed in the lord; and he counted it to him for
           righteousness.

01:015:007 And he said unto him, I am the lord that brought thee out of
           Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.

01:015:008 And he said, lord God, whereby shall I know that I shall
           inherit it?

01:015:009 And he said unto him, Take me an heifer of three years old,
           and a she goat of three years old, and a ram of three years
           old, and a turtledove, and a young pigeon.

01:015:010 And he took unto him all these, and divided them in the midst,
           and laid each piece one against another:  but the birds divided
           he not.

01:015:011 And when the fowls came down upon the carcases, Abram drove
           them away.

01:015:012 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram;
           and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.

01:015:013 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall
           be a stranger in a land that is not their’s, and shall serve
           them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;

01:015:014 And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge:  and
           afterward shall they come out with great substance.

01:015:015 And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be
           buried in a good old age.

01:015:016 But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again:  for
           the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.
