Genesis 17:1-8; Revelation 21:3
And when Abram was ninety years old
and nine,
The LORD appeared to Abram,
And said unto him,
I am the Almighty God;
Walk before me,
And be thou perfect.
And I will make my covenant
Between me and thee,
And will multiply thee exceedingly.
And Abram fell on his face:
And God talked with him, saying,
As for me,
Behold, my covenant is with thee,
And thou shalt be a father
Of many nations.
Neither shall thy name
Any more be called Abram,
But thy name shall be Abraham;
For a father of many nations
Have I made thee.
And I will make thee exceeding fruitful,
And I will make nations of thee,
And kings shall come out of thee.
And I will establish my covenant
Between me and thee
And thy seed after thee
In their generations
For an everlasting covenant,
To be a God unto thee,
And to thy seed after thee.
And I will give unto thee,
And to thy seed after thee,
The land wherein thou art a stranger,
All the land of Canaan,
For an everlasting possession;
And I will be their God.
And I heard a great voice
Out of heaven saying,
Behold, the tabernacle of God
Is with men,
And he will dwell with them,
And they shall be his people,
And God himself
Shall be with them,
And be their God.
