Now when Abram was ninety-nine years old, ^(C1)the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, "I am ^(F1)God ^(C2)Almighty; Walk before Me, and be ^(F2)(C3)blameless.

-"I will ^(F1)make My ^(C1)covenant between Me and you, And I will ^(C2)multiply you exceedingly."

Abram ^(C1)fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying,

"As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, And you will be the father of a ^(C1)multitude of nations.

-"No longer shall you be named ^(F1)Abram, But ^(C1)your name shall be ^(F2)Abraham; For ^(C2)I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.

"I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you, and ^(C1)kings will come from you.

"I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your ^(F1)descendants after you throughout their generations as an ^(C1)everlasting covenant, ^(C2)to be God to you and ^(C3)to your ^(F1)descendants after you.

"And ^(C1)I will give to you and to your ^(F1)descendants after you the land where you live as a stranger, all the land of Canaan, as an everlasting possession; and ^(C2)I will be their God."
