Genesis 15:16-21
New International Version
16 In the fourth generation(A) your descendants will come back here,(B) for the sin of the Amorites(C) has not yet reached its full measure.”
17 When the sun had set and darkness had fallen, a smoking firepot with a blazing torch(D) appeared and passed between the pieces.(E) 18 On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram(F) and said, “To your descendants I give this land,(G) from the Wadi[a] of Egypt(H) to the great river, the Euphrates(I)— 19 the land of the Kenites,(J) Kenizzites, Kadmonites, 20 Hittites,(K) Perizzites,(L) Rephaites,(M) 21 Amorites, Canaanites, Girgashites and Jebusites.”(N)

New International Version
10 and she said to Abraham, “Get rid of that slave woman(A) and her son, for that woman’s son will never share in the inheritance with my son Isaac.”(B)
11 The matter distressed Abraham greatly because it concerned his son.(C) 12 But God said to him, “Do not be so distressed about the boy and your slave woman. Listen to whatever Sarah tells you, because it is through Isaac that your offspring[a] will be reckoned.(D) 13 I will make the son of the slave into a nation(E) also, because he is your offspring.”
