Genesis 17:1-5 ▼

1 Now it happened that when Abram was ninety-nine years old, Yahweh appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am God Almighty; Walk before Me and be blameless,

2 so that I may confirm My covenant between Me and you, And that I may multiply you exceedingly.”

3 Then Abram fell on his face, and God spoke with him, saying,

4 “As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, And you will be the father of a multitude of nations.

5 And no longer shall your name be called Abram, But your name shall be Abraham; For I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.
