这些事以後, 耶和华在异象中有话对亚伯兰说:「亚伯兰,你不要惧怕。我是你的盾牌,也是你大大的赏赐。」
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.
亚伯兰说:「 主─ 耶和华啊,我既无子,你还赐我甚麽呢?并且我家宰是大马士革人以利以谢。」
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?
亚伯兰又说:「看哪,你没有给我儿子;那生在我家中的人就是我的後嗣。」
And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir.
谁知 耶和华又有话对他说:「这人必不成为你的後嗣;你本身所生的才成为你的後嗣。」
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.
於是领他走到外边,说:「你向天观看,数算众星,能数得过来吗?」又对他说:「你的後裔将要如此。」
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.
亚伯兰信 耶和华,他就以此为他的义。
And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.
他又对他说:「我是 耶和华,曾领你出了迦勒底的吾珥,为要将这地赐你为业。」
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.
亚伯兰说:「 主耶和华啊,我怎能知道必得这地为业呢?」
And he said, Lord GOD, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?
他说:「你为我取一只三年的母牛犊,一只三年的母山羊,一只三年的公绵羊,一只斑鸠,一只雏鸽。」
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.
亚伯兰就取了这些来,每样劈开,分成两半,一半对着一半地摆列,只有鸟没有劈开。
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.
有鸷鸟下来,落在那死畜的肉上,亚伯兰就把它吓飞了。
And when the fowls came down upon the carcases, Abram drove them away.
日头正落的时候,亚伯兰沉沉地睡了;忽然有惊人的大黑暗落在他身上。
And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.
耶和华对亚伯兰说:「你要确实知道,你的後裔必在别人的地为客旅,又服事那地的人;那地的人要苦待他们四百年;
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;
并且他们所要服事的那国,我要惩罚,後来他们必带着许多财物从那里出来。
And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.
但你要享大寿数,平平安安地归到你列祖那里,被人埋葬。
And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.
但到了第四代,他们必回到此地;因为亚摩利人的罪孽还没有满盈。」
But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites [is] not yet full.
日落天黑,不料有冒烟的炉并燃着的灯从那些肉块中经过。
And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces.
当日, 耶和华与亚伯兰立约,说:「我已赐给你的後裔,从埃及河直到幼发拉底大河之地:
In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:
就是基尼人丶基尼洗人丶甲摩尼人丶
The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites,
赫人丶比利洗人丶利乏音人丶
And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims,
亚摩利人丶迦南人丶革迦撒人丶耶布斯人之地。」
And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.
