1 And when Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me and be thou perfect.
2 And I will make my covenant between me and thee and will multiply thee exceedingly.
3 And Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying,
4 Behold my covenant with thee: Thou shalt be a father of many Gentiles.
5 Neither shall thy name any longer be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many Gentiles have I made thee.
6 And I will multiply thee exceeding, and I will make Gentiles of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
