1. The Lord had said to Abram, ‘Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.
2. ‘I will make you into a great nation,and I will bless you;I will make your name great,and you will be a blessing.
3. I will bless those who bless you,and whoever curses you I will curse;and all peoples on earthwill be blessed through you.’
4. So Abram went, as the Lord had told him; and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he set out from Harran.
