18 On that day Jehovah concluded* with Aʹbram a covenant,+ saying: “To your seed I will give this land,+ from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Eu·phraʹtes:+
8 And I shall certainly bring YOU into the land that I raised my hand in oath+ to give to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; and I shall indeed give it to YOU as something to possess.+ I am Jehovah.’”+
5 And yet he did not give him any inheritable possession in it, no, not a footbreadth;+ but he promised to give it to him as a possession,+ and after him to his seed,*+ while as yet he had no child.+
