Acts 7:4-6

Contemporary English Version

^4 (A) Then Abraham left the land of the Chaldeans and settled in Haran.

After his father died, Abraham came and settled in this land where you now live. ^5 (B) God didn't give him any part of it, not even a square meter. But God did promise to give it to him and his family forever, even though Abraham didn't have any children. ^6 (C) God said Abraham's descendants would live for a while in a foreign land. There they would be slaves and would be mistreated 400 years.
