The LORDappearedto him and said,"Do not godownto Egypt;stayin the landof whichI shall tellyou.
The LORDappearedto Abramand said,"To your descendantsI will givethisland."So he builtan altarthereto the LORDwho had appearedto him.
Now the LORDappearedto him by the oaksof Mamre,while he was sittingat the tentdoorin the heatof the day.
Now when Abramwas ninety-nineyearsold,the LORDappearedto Abramand saidto him, "I am GodAlmighty;WalkbeforeMe, and be blameless.
Now the LORDsaidto Abram,"Goforth from your country,And from your relativesAnd from your father'shouse,To the landwhichI will showyou;
Trustin the LORDand dogood;Dwellin the landand cultivatefaithfulness.
But Godsaid,"No,but Sarahyour wifewill bearyou a son,and you shall callhis nameIsaac;and I will establishMy covenantwith him for an everlastingcovenantfor his descendantsafterhim.
The LORDappearedto him the samenightand said,"I am the Godof your fatherAbraham;Do not fear,for I am with you. I will blessyou, and multiplyyour descendants,For the sakeof My servantAbraham."
So Godheardtheir groaning;and GodrememberedHis covenantwith Abraham,Isaac,and Jacob.

Whois the manwho fearsthe LORD?He will instructhim in the wayhe should choose.
