[3] And said unto him, Get thee out of country, and from kindred, and come into the land which I shall shew [4] Then came he out of the land of the Chaldaeans, and dwelt in Charran: and from thence, when his father was dead, he removed him into land, wherein now dwell. [5] And he gave him none inheritance in it, no, not his foot on: yet he promised that he would give it for a possession, and to his seed after him, no child. [6] And God spake on this wise, That his seed sojourn in a strange land; and them into bondage, and entreat them evil four hundred years. [7] And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage I judge, said God: and after shall they come forth, and serve in place. [8] And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so Abraham begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat the twelve patriarchs.
