- After these things the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision, saying, "Do not fear, Abram, I am a shield to you; Your reward shall be very great."
- Abram said, "O Lord GOD, what will You give me, since I am childless, and the heir of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?"
- And Abram said, "Since You have given no offspring to me, one born in my house is my heir."
- Then behold, the word of the LORD came to him, saying, "This man will not be your heir; but one who will come forth from your own body, he shall be your heir."
- And He took him outside and said, "Now look toward the heavens, and count the stars, if you are able to count them " And He said to him, "So shall your descendants be."

- 这事以后,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,必大大地赏赐你。
- 亚伯兰说,主耶和华阿,我既无子,你还赐我什么呢,并且要承受我家业的是大马色人以利以谢。
- 亚伯兰又说,你没有给我儿子。那生在我家中的人就是我的后嗣。
- 耶和华又有话对他说,这人必不成为你的后嗣。你本身所生的才成为你的后嗣。
- 于是领他走到外边,说,你向天观看,数算众星,能数得过来麽。又对他说,你的后裔将要如此。
