The Sign of the Covenant
1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord aappeared to Abram and said to him, b“I am Almighty God; cwalk before Me and be dblameless.
2 And I will make My acovenant between Me and you, and bwill multiply you exceedingly.”
3 Then Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying:
4 “As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, and you shall be a afather of many nations.
5 No longer shall ayour name be called Abram, but your name shall be2 Abraham; bfor I have made you a father of3 many nations.
