- Abram believed the LORD, and he credited it to him as righteousness.
- He also said to him, "I am the LORD, who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldeans to give you this land to take possession of it."
- But Abram said, "O Sovereign LORD, how can I know that I will gain possession of it?"
- So the LORD said to him, "Bring me a heifer, a goat and a ram, each three years old, along with a dove and a young pigeon."
- Abram brought all these to him, cut them in two and arranged the halves opposite each other; the birds, however, he did not cut in half.

- 亚伯兰信耶和华,耶和华就以此为他的义。
- 耶和华又对他说,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。
- 亚伯兰说,主耶和华阿,我怎能知道必得这地为业呢。
- 他说,你为我取一只三年的母牛,一只三年的母山羊,一只三年的公绵羊,一只斑鸠,一只雏鸽。
- 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。
