4 And behold, the word of the Lord came to him, saying, “This one shall not be your heir, but one who awill come from your own body shall be your heir.”
5 Then He brought him outside and said, “Look now toward heaven, and acount the bstars if you are able to number them.” And He said to him, c“So shall your ddescendants be.”
6 And he abelieved in the Lord, and He baccounted it to him for righteousness.
7 Then He said to him, “I am the Lord, who abrought you out of bUr of the Chaldeans, cto give you this land to inherit it.”
8 And he said, “Lord God, ahow shall I know that I will inherit it?”
9 So He said to him, “Bring Me a three-year-old heifer, a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram, a turtledove, and a young pigeon.”
10 Then he brought all these to Him and acut them in two, down the middle, and placed each piece opposite the other; but he did not cut bthe birds in two.
