And Abram said, Lord Yhwh, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus?
3 Pathen nang man keima chilhah ding a chikhai ding, neipe ta pon, hijeh a chu ka sohte lah a khat hin ka gou alo ding ahi tai.
And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir.

8 Hichun Abram in adonbut in, “O Pakai ka Pathen hiche hi kalo ding ahi ti ipia iti kahet doh thei ding ham?” ati.
And he said, Lord Yhwh, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?

And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.

And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.

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