Acts 7:4-6
English Standard Version
4 (A)Then he went out from the land of the Chaldeans and lived in Haran. And (B)after his father died, (C)God removed him from there into this land in which you are now living. 5 Yet he gave him no inheritance in it, not even a foot's length, but promised (D)to give it to him as a possession and to his offspring after him, (E)though he had no child. 6 And God spoke to this effect—that (F)his offspring would (G)be sojourners in a land belonging to others, who would enslave them and afflict them (H)four hundred years.

New International Version
4 “So he left the land of the Chaldeans and settled in Harran. After the death of his father, God sent him to this land where you are now living.(A) 5 He gave him no inheritance here,(B) not even enough ground to set his foot on. But God promised him that he and his descendants after him would possess the land,(C) even though at that time Abraham had no child. 6 God spoke to him in this way: ‘For four hundred years your descendants will be strangers in a country not their own, and they will be enslaved and mistreated.(D)
Acts 7:4-6
King James Version
4 Then came he out of the land of the Chaldaeans, and dwelt in Charran: and from thence, when his father was dead, he removed him into this land, wherein ye now dwell.
5 And he gave him none inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on: yet he promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, when as yet he had no child.
6 And God spake on this wise, That his seed should sojourn in a strange land; and that they should bring them into bondage, and entreat them evil four hundred years.
