Genesis 17:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 Neither shall thy name anymore be called Abram, but thy name shall be [a]Abraham: (A)for a father of many nations have I made thee.
6 Also I will make thee exceedingly fruitful, and will make nations of thee, yea, Kings shall proceed of thee.
7 Moreover, I will establish my covenant between me and thee, and thy seed after thee in their generations, for an (B)everlasting covenant, to be God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.
