(A)Sojourn in this land, and (B)I will be with you and will bless you, for (C)to you and to your offspring I will give all these lands, and I will establish (D)the oath that I swore to Abraham your father. (E)I will multiply your offspring as the stars of heaven and will give to your offspring all these lands. And (F)in your offspring all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because (G)Abraham obeyed my voice and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.”

(E)A nation and a company of nations shall come from you, and kings shall come from your own body.[c] 12 (F)The land that I gave to Abraham and Isaac I will give to you, and I will give the land to your offspring after you.” 13 Then God (G)went up from him in the place where he had spoken with him.
