And he led him out, and said, Look now toward the heavens, and number the stars, if thou be able to number them. And he said to him, So shall thy seed be!

And the birds of prey came down on the carcases; and Abram scared them away.

And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.

And [in the] fourth generation they shall come hither again; for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.
