Genesis 22:16-24 ▼

16 and said, |I have sworn by myself, |says the LORD, |because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son, from me,

17 I will indeed bless you, and I will greatly multiply your offspring like the stars of the sky, and like the sand which is on the seashore; and your offspring will possess the gate of their enemies.

18 And through your offspring all the nations of the earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice.|

19 So Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba. Abraham lived at Beersheba.

20 It happened after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, |Look, Milcah also has borne children to your brother Nahor:

21 Uz his firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel the father of Aram,

22 Kesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.|

23 Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.

24 His secondary wife, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
