Genesis 15
Ang Biblia (1978)
Ang pangako ng Dios kay Abram.
15 Pagkatapos ng mga bagay na ito ay dumating ang salita ng Panginoon kay Abram sa pangitain na nagsasabi, (A)Huwag kang matakot, Abram: ako ang iyong (B)kalasag, at ang iyong (C)ganting pala na lubhang dakila.
2 At sinabi ni Abram, Oh Panginoong Dios, anong ibibigay mo sa akin, kung ako'y nabubuhay na walang anak at ang magaari ng aking bahay ay itong taga Damascong si Eliezer?
3 At sinabi ni Abram, Narito, hindi mo ako binigyan ng anak (D)at, narito't isang ipinanganak sa aking bahay ang siyang tagapagmana ko.
4 At, narito, ang salita ng Panginoon ay dumating sa kaniya, na nagsabi, Hindi ang taong ito ang magiging tagapagmana mo; kundi (E)lalabas sa iyong sariling katawan ang magiging tagapagmana mo.
5 At siya'y inilabas at sinabi, Tumingala ka ngayon sa langit, (F)at iyong bilangin ang mga bituin, kung mabibilang mo: at sa kaniya'y sinabi, Magiging (G)ganiyan ang iyong binhi.
6 (H)At sumampalataya siya sa Panginoon; at ito'y ibinilang na katuwiran sa kaniya.
7 At sinabi sa kaniya, (I)Ako ang Panginoon na nagpaalis sa iyo sa Ur ng mga Caldeo, upang ibigay sa iyo ang lupaing ito na manahin mo.
8 At sinabi niya, Oh Panginoong Dios, (J)paanong pagkakilala ko na aking mamanahin?
9 At sinabi sa kaniya, Magdala ka rito sa akin ng isang dumalagang bakang tatlong taon ang gulang, at ng isang babaing kambing na tatlong taon ang gulang, at ng isang lalaking tupang tatlong taon ang gulang, at ng isang inakay na batobato at ng isang inakay na kalapati.
10 At dinala niya ang lahat ng ito sa kaniya, at (K)pinaghati niya sa gitna, at kaniyang pinapagtapattapat ang kalakalahati; (L)datapuwa't hindi hinati ang mga ibon.
11 At binababa ng mga ibong mangdadagit ang mga bangkay, at binubugaw ni Abram.
12 At nang lulubog na ang araw, ay (M)nakatulog si Abram ng mahimbing; at, narito, ang isang kasindaksindak na malaking kadiliman ay sumakaniya.
13 At sinabi ng Dios kay Abram, Tunay na pakatalastasin mo, (N)na ang iyong binhi ay magiging taga ibang bayan sa lupaing hindi kanila, at mangaglilingkod (O)sa mga yaon; at pahihirapang apat na raang taon.
14 At yaon namang bansang kanilang paglilingkuran ay aking hahatulan: (P)at pagkatapos ay aalis silang may malaking pagaari.
15 (Q)Datapuwa't ikaw ay payapang pasa sa (R)iyong mga magulang; (S)at ikaw ay malilibing sa mabuting katandaan.
16 At sa ikaapat na salin ng iyong binhi, ay magsisipagbalik rito: (T)sapagka't hindi pa nalulubos ang katampalasanan ng mga (U)Amorrheo.
17 At nangyari, na paglubog ng araw, at pagdilim, na narito, ang isang hurnong umuusok, at ang isang tanglaw na nagniningas na dumaan sa gitna ng mga hinating hayop.
18 Nang araw na yaon, ang Panginoon ay (V)nakipagtipan kay Abram, na nagsabi, (W)Sa iyong binhi ibinigay ko ang lupaing ito, mula sa ilog ng Egipto hanggang sa malaking ilog, na ilog Eufrates.
19 Ang mga Cineo, at ang mga Ceneceo, at ang mga Cedmoneo,
20 At ang mga Heteo, at ang mga Pherezeo, at ang mga Refaim,
21 At ang mga Amorrheo, at ang mga Cananeo, at ang mga Gergeseo, at ang mga Jebuseo.
Genesis 15
Authorized (King James) Version
15 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. 2 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? 3 And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir. 4 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. 5 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. 6 And he believed in the Lord; and he counted it to him for righteousness. 7 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. 8 And he said, Lord God, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it? 9 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. 10 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. 11 And when the fowls came down upon the carcases, Abram drove them away. 12 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him. 13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years; 14 and also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance. 15 And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age. 16 But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full. 17 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. 18 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: 19 the Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites, 20 and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims, 21 and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.

Yahweh Cuts a Covenant with Abram
15 After these things (A)the word of Yahweh came to Abram in a vision, saying,
2 And Abram said, “O Lord Yahweh, what will You give me, as I go on being childless, and the [b]heir of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?” 3 And Abram said, “[c]Since You have given no seed to me, behold, [d]one (E)born in my house is my heir.” 4 Then behold, the word of Yahweh came to him, saying, “This one will not be your heir; (F)but one who will come forth from your own [e]body, he shall be your heir.” 5 And He brought him outside and said, “Now look toward the heavens, and (G)number the stars, if you are able to number them.” And He said to him, “(H)So shall your seed be.” 6 (I)Then he believed in Yahweh; and He counted it to him as righteousness. 7 And He said to him, “I am Yahweh who brought you out of (J)Ur of the Chaldeans, to (K)give you this land to [f]possess it.” 8 And he said, “O Lord Yahweh, (L)how may I know that I will [g]possess it?” 9 So He said to him, “[h]Bring Me a three year old heifer, and a three year old female goat, and a three year old ram, and a turtledove, and a young pigeon.” 10 Then he [i]brought all these to Him and (M)split them into parts [j]down the middle and laid each part opposite the other; but he (N)did not split apart the birds. 11 Then the birds of prey came down upon the carcasses, and Abram drove them away.
12 Now it happened that when the sun was going down, (O)a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and behold, [k]terror and great darkness fell upon him. 13 Then God said to Abram, “Know for certain that (P)your seed will be sojourners in a land that is not theirs, [l]and (Q)they will be enslaved and mistreated (R)four hundred years. 14 But I will also judge the nation to whom they are enslaved, and afterward they will come out (S)with [m]many possessions. 15 As for you, (T)you shall go to your fathers in peace; you will be buried at a good old age. 16 Then in (U)the fourth generation they will return here, for (V)the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet complete.”
17 Now it happened that the sun had set, and it was very dark, and behold, there appeared a smoking oven and a flaming torch which (W)passed between these pieces. 18 On that day Yahweh cut a covenant with Abram, saying,
“(X)To your seed I have given this land,
From (Y)the river of Egypt as far as the great river, the river Euphrates:
19 (Z)the Kenite and the Kenizzite and the Kadmonite 20 and the Hittite and the Perizzite and the Rephaim 21 and the Amorite and the Canaanite and the Girgashite and the Jebusite.”
