14¶ And the LORD said vnto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift vp now thine eyes, and looke from the place where thou art, Northward, and Southward, and Eastward, and Westward. 15For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seede for euer. 16And I will make thy seede as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbred. 17Arise, walke through the land, in the length of it, and in the breadth of it: for I will giue it vnto thee. 18Then Abram remoued his tent, and came and dwelt in the plaine of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and built there an altar vnto the LORD.
