1 When Abram was 99 years old, the LORD appeared to him. He said to Abram, |I am God Almighty. Live in my presence with integrity. 2 I will give you my promise, and I will give you very many descendants.| 3 Immediately, Abram bowed with his face touching the ground, and again God spoke to him, 4 |My promise is still with you. You will become the father of many nations. 5 So your name will no longer be Abram [Exalted Father], but Abraham [Father of Many] because I have made you a father of many nations. 6 I will give you many descendants. Many nations and kings will come from you. Genesis 17:1-6, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
