1When Abram was ninety-nine years old the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am God Almighty;1 walk before me, and be nblameless, 2that I may make my covenant between me and you, and omay multiply you greatly.” 3Then Abram pfell on his face. And God said to him, 4“Behold, my covenant is with you, and you shall be qthe father of a multitude of nations. 5No longer shall your name be called Abram,2 but ryour name shall be Abraham,3 sfor I have made you the father of a multitude of nations. 6I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make tyou into nations, and ukings shall come from you. 7And I will vestablish my covenant between me and you and your offspring after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, wto be God to you and to your offspring after you. 8And xI will give to you and to your offspring after you the land of your sojournings, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession, and yI will be their God.”
