Genesis 15:4-6

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁴ Then behold, the word of the Lord came to him, saying, “This man will not be your heir; ^(A)but one who will come forth from your own ^[a]body, he shall be your heir.” ⁵ And He took him outside and said, “Now look toward the heavens, and ^(B)count the stars, if you are able to count them.” And He said to him, “^(C)So shall your ^[b]descendants be.” ^6 (D)Then he believed in the Lord; and He reckoned it to him as righteousness.
