¹⁸ On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, ^(A)“To your offspring I give^[a] this land, from ^(B)the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates,

^3 (A)Every place that the sole of your foot will tread upon I have given to you, just as I promised to Moses. ^4 (B)From the wilderness and this Lebanon as far as the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites to the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun shall be your territory.

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

⁷ The Lord, the God of heaven, ^(A)who took me from my father's house and from the land of my kindred, and who spoke to me and swore to me, ^(B)‘To your offspring I will give this land,’ ^(C)he will send his angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from there.

¹⁵ for all the land that you see I will give ^(A)to you and ^(B)to your offspring forever.

¹² In that day ^(A)from the river Euphrates^[a] to the Brook of Egypt the Lord will thresh out the grain, and you will be gleaned one by one, O people of Israel.

^8 (A)You found his heart faithful before you, ^(B)and made with him the covenant to give to his offspring ^(C)the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Jebusite, and the Girgashite. ^(D)And you have kept your promise, for you are righteous.

^24 (A)Every place on which the sole of your foot treads shall be yours. Your territory shall be ^(B)from the wilderness to^[a] the Lebanon and from the River, the river Euphrates, to the western sea.

⁵ And the border shall turn ^(A)from Azmon to ^(B)the Brook of Egypt, and its limit shall be at the sea.

Benediction

²⁰ Now ^(A)may the God of peace ^(B)who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, ^(C)the great shepherd of the sheep, by ^(D)the blood of the eternal covenant,
