1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am Almighty God. Walk before Me and be blameless.
2 And I will make My covenant between you and Me and will exceedingly multiply you.”
3 Abram fell on his face and God said to him,
4 “As for Me, My covenant is with you, and you shall be the father of a multitude of nations.
5 No longer will your name be called Abram, but your name will be Abraham, for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.
6 I will make you exceedingly fruitful; and I will make nations of you, and kings will come from you.
