¹

And after these things the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram, I shield thee, thy reward shall be very great.

¹

По глаго́лѣхъ же си́хъ, бы́сть сло́во гдⷭ҇не ко а҆вра́мꙋ въ видѣ́нїи но́щїю, гл҃ѧ: не бо́йсѧ, а҆вра́ме: а҆́зъ защища́ю тѧ̀, мзда̀ твоѧ̀ мно́га бꙋ́детъ ѕѣлѡ̀.

²

And Abram said, Master and Lord, what wilt thou give me? whereas I am departing without a child, but the son of Masek my home-born female slave, this Eliezer of Damascus is mine heir.

²

Глаго́ла же а҆вра́мъ: влⷣко гдⷭ҇и, что́ ми да́си; а҆́зъ же ѿпꙋща́юсѧ безча́денъ: сы́нъ же масе́къ домоча́дицы моеѧ̀, се́й дама́скъ є҆лїе́зеръ.

³

And Abram said, I am grieved since thou hast given me no seed, but my home-born servant shall succeed me.

³

И҆ речѐ а҆вра́мъ: поне́же мнѣ̀ не да́лъ є҆сѝ сѣ́мене, домоча́децъ же мо́й наслѣ́дникъ мо́й бꙋ́детъ.

⁴

And immediately there was a voice of the Lord to him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come out of thee shall be thine heir.

⁴

И҆ а҆́бїе гла́съ гдⷭ҇ень бы́сть къ немꙋ̀, гл҃ющїй: не бꙋ́детъ се́й наслѣ́дникъ тво́й, но и҆́же и҆зы́детъ и҆з̾ тебє̀, то́й бꙋ́детъ наслѣ́дникъ тебѣ̀.

⁵

And he brought him out and said to him, Look up now to heaven, and count the stars, if thou shalt be able to number them fully, and he said, Thus shall thy seed be.

⁵

И҆зведе́ же є҆го̀ во́нъ и҆ речѐ є҆мꙋ̀: воззрѝ на не́бо и҆ и҆зочтѝ ѕвѣ́зды, а҆́ще возмо́жеши и҆счестѝ ѧ҆̀. И҆ речѐ: та́кѡ бꙋ́детъ сѣ́мѧ твоѐ.

⁶

And Abram believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness.

⁶

И҆ вѣ́рова а҆вра́мъ бг҃ꙋ, и҆ вмѣни́сѧ є҆мꙋ̀ въ пра́вдꙋ.

⁷

And he said to him, I am God that brought thee out of the land of the Chaldeans, so as to give thee this land to inherit.

⁷

Рече́ же къ немꙋ̀: а҆́зъ (є҆́смь) бг҃ъ и҆зведы́й тѧ̀ ѿ страны̀ халде́йскїѧ, ꙗ҆́кѡ да́ти тебѣ̀ зе́млю сїю̀ наслѣ́дствовати.

⁸

And he said, Master and Lord, how shall I know that I shall inherit it?

⁸

И҆ речѐ: влⷣко гдⷭ҇и, по чесомꙋ̀ оу҆разꙋмѣ́ю, ꙗ҆́кѡ наслѣ́дити ю҆̀ и҆́мамъ;

⁹

And he said to him, Take for me an heifer in her third year, and a she-goat in her third year, and a ram in his third year, and a dove and a pigeon.

⁹

Рече́ же къ немꙋ̀: возмѝ мнѣ̀ ю҆́ницꙋ трилѣ́тнꙋ и҆ ко́зꙋ трилѣ́тнꙋ и҆ ѻ҆вна̀ трилѣ́тна, и҆ го́рлицꙋ и҆ го́лꙋбѧ.

¹⁰

So he took to him all these, and divided them in the midst, and set them opposite to each other, but the birds he did not divide.

¹⁰

Взѧ́ же ѻ҆́нъ всѧ̑ сїѧ̑ и҆ раздѣлѝ ѧ҆̀ на по́лы, и҆ положѝ ѧ҆̀ противоли̑чна є҆ди́на ко дрꙋго́мꙋ: пти́цъ же не раздѣлѝ.

¹¹

And birds came down upon the bodies, even upon the divided parts of them, and Abram sat down by them.

¹¹

Слетѣ́ша же пти̑цы на тѣлеса̀ растє́санаѧ и҆́хъ: и҆ сѣ́де бли́зꙋ и҆́хъ а҆вра́мъ.

¹²

And about sunset a trance fell upon Abram, and lo! a great gloomy terror falls upon him.

¹²

Заходѧ́щꙋ же со́лнцꙋ, оу҆́жасъ нападѐ на а҆вра́ма, и҆ сѐ, стра́хъ те́менъ ве́лїй нападѐ на́нь.

¹³

And it was said to Abram, Thou shalt surely know that thy seed shall be a sojourner in a land not their own, and they shall enslave them, and afflict them, and humble them four hundred years.

¹³

И҆ рече́но бы́сть ко а҆вра́мꙋ: вѣ́дый оу҆вѣ́си, ꙗ҆́кѡ пресе́лно бꙋ́детъ сѣ́мѧ твоѐ въ землѝ не свое́й, и҆ порабо́тѧтъ ѧ҆̀, и҆ ѡ҆ѕло́бѧтъ ѧ҆̀, и҆ смирѧ́тъ ѧ҆̀ лѣ́тъ четы́риста:

¹⁴

And the nation whomsoever they shall serve I will judge; and after this, they shall come forth hither with much property.

¹⁴

ꙗ҆зы́кꙋ же, є҆мꙋ́же порабо́таютъ, сꙋждꙋ̀ а҆́зъ: по си́хъ же и҆зы́дꙋтъ сѣ́мѡ со и҆мѣ́нїемъ мно́гимъ:

¹⁵

But thou shalt depart to thy fathers in peace, nourished in a good old age.

¹⁵

ты́ же ѿи́деши ко ѻ҆тцє́мъ твои̑мъ въ ми́рѣ, препита́нъ въ ста́рости до́брѣй:

¹⁶

And in the fourth generation they shall return hither, for the sins of the Amorites are not yet filled up, even until now.

¹⁶

въ четве́ртѣмъ же ро́дѣ возвратѧ́тсѧ сѣ́мѡ: не бо̀ и҆спо́лнишасѧ грѣсѝ а҆морре́ѡвъ до нн҃ѣ.

¹⁷

And when the sun was about to set, there was a flame, and behold a smoking furnace and lamps of fire, which passed between these divided pieces.

¹⁷

Є҆гда́ же бы́сть со́лнце на за́падѣ, пла́мень бы́сть: и҆ сѐ, пе́щь дымѧ́щисѧ, и҆ свѣщы̀ ѻ҆́гнєнны, ꙗ҆̀же проидо́ша междꙋ̀ растеса̑нїи си́ми.

¹⁸

In that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, To thy seed I will give this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river Euphrates.

¹⁸

Въ де́нь то́й завѣща̀ гдⷭ҇ь а҆вра́мꙋ завѣ́тъ, гл҃ѧ: сѣ́мени твоемꙋ̀ да́мъ зе́млю сїю̀ ѿ рѣкѝ є҆гѵ́петскїѧ да́же до рѣкѝ вели́кїѧ є҆ѵфра́та:

¹⁹

The Kenites, and the Kenezites, and the Kedmoneans,

¹⁹

кене́ѡвъ и҆ кенезе́ѡвъ и҆ кедмѡне́ѡвъ,

²⁰

and the Chettites, and the Pherezites, and the Raphaim,

²⁰

и҆ хетте́ѡвъ и҆ ферезе́ѡвъ и҆ рафаі́нѡвъ,

²¹

and the Amorites, and the Chananites, and the Evites, and the Gergesites, and the Jebusites.

²¹

и҆ а҆морре́ѡвъ и҆ ханане́ѡвъ, и҆ є҆ве́ѡвъ и҆ гергесе́ѡвъ и҆ і҆евꙋсе́ѡвъ.
