⁷ The Lord appeared to Abram^(A) and said, “To your offspring^[a] I will give this land.^(B)”^(C) So he built an altar there to the Lord,^(D) who had appeared to him.

¹⁵ All the land that you see I will give to you and your offspring^[a] forever.^(A)

¹⁷ When the sun had set and darkness had fallen, a smoking firepot with a blazing torch^(A) appeared and passed between the pieces.^{(B) 18} On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram^(C) and said, “To your descendants I give this land,^(D) from the Wadi^[a] of Egypt^(E) to the great river, the Euphrates^(F)— ¹⁹ the land of the Kenites,^(G) Kenizzites, Kadmonites, ²⁰ Hittites,^(H) Perizzites,^(I) Rephaites,^{(J) 21} Amorites, Canaanites, Girgashites and Jebusites.”^(K)

⁷ I will establish my covenant^(A) as an everlasting covenant^(B) between me and you and your descendants after you for the generations to come, to be your God^(C) and the God of your descendants after you.^{(D) 8} The whole land of Canaan,^(E) where you now reside as a foreigner,^(F) I will give as an everlasting possession to you and your descendants after you;^(G) and I will be their God.^(H)”

6 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Now you will see what I will do to Pharaoh: Because of my mighty hand^(A) he will let them go;^(B) because of my mighty hand he will drive them out of his country.”^(C)

² God also said to Moses, “I am the Lord.^{(D) 3} I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob as God Almighty,^[a](E) but by my name^(F) the Lord^[b](G) I did not make myself fully known to them. ⁴ I also established my covenant^(H) with them to give them the land^(I) of Canaan, where they resided as foreigners.^{(J) 5} Moreover, I have heard the groaning^(K) of the Israelites, whom the Egyptians are enslaving, and I have remembered my covenant.^(L)

⁶ “Therefore, say to the Israelites: ‘I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.^(M) I will free you from being slaves to them, and I will redeem^(N) you with an outstretched arm^(O) and with mighty acts of judgment.^{(P) 7} I will take you as my own people, and I will be your God.^(Q) Then you will know^(R) that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians. ⁸ And I will bring you to the land^(S) I swore^(T) with uplifted hand^(U) to give to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob.^(V) I will give it to you as a possession. I am the Lord.’”^(W)

²³ “‘The land^(A) must not be sold permanently, because the land is mine^(B) and you reside in my land as foreigners^(C) and strangers.

³⁸ to drive out before you nations greater and stronger than you and to bring you into their land to give it to you for your inheritance,^(A) as it is today.

⁴⁰ Keep^(A) his decrees and commands,^(B) which I am giving you today, so that it may go well^(C) with you and your children after you and that you may live long^(D) in the land the Lord your God gives you for all time.

¹² It is a land the Lord your God cares for; the eyes^(A) of the Lord your God are continually on it from the beginning of the year to its end.
