The Call of Abram

1 Now ^athe Lord said ^{▼▼Or had said} to Abram, “Go from your country ^{▼▼Or land} and your kindred and your father’s house to the land that I will show you. 2 ^dAnd I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. 3 ^eI will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and ^fin you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” ^{▼▼Or by you all the families of the earth shall bless themselves}

Genesis 15:13

13 Then the Lord said to Abram, “Know for certain ^hthat your offspring will be sojourners in a land that is not theirs and will be servants there, and ⁱthey will be afflicted for ^jfour hundred years.

Acts 7:6

6 And God spoke to this effect—that ^khis offspring would ^lbe sojourners in a land belonging to others, who would enslave them and afflict them ^mfour hundred years.

Galatians 3:16-17

16 Now ⁿthe promises were made ^oto Abraham and to his offspring. It does not say, “And to offsprings,” referring to many, but referring to one, ^p“And to your offspring,” who is Christ. 17 This is what I mean: the law, which came ^q430 years afterward, does not annul a covenant previously ratified by God, so as ^rto make the promise void.
