1 After these things the word of Yahweh came to Abram in a vision, saying: “Do not be afraid, Abram; I am your shield, and your reward shall be very great.”
2 Then Abram said, “O Yahweh, my Lord, what will you give me? I continue to be childless, and my heir is Eliezer of Damascus.”
3 And Abram said, “Look, you have not given me a descendant, and here, a member of my household is my heir.”
4 And behold, the word of Yahweh came to him saying, “This person will not be your heir, but your own son will be your heir.”
