1 Nach diesen Dingen geschah das Wort Jehovas zu Abram in einem Gesicht also: Fürchte dich nicht, Abram; ich bin dir ein Schild, dein sehr großer Lohn.

2 Und Abram sprach: Herr, Jehova, was willst du mir geben? Ich gehe ja kinderlos dahin, und der Erbe (W. der Sohn des Besitzes) meines Hauses, das ist Elieser von Damaskus.

3 Und Abram sprach: Siehe, mir hast du keinen Samen gegeben, und siehe, der Sohn meines Hauses (d. h. mein Hausgeborener) wird mich beerben.

4 Und siehe, das Wort Jehovas geschah zu ihm also: Nicht dieser wird dich beerben, sondern der aus deinem Leibe hervorgehen wird, der wird dich beerben.

5 Und er führte ihn hinaus und sprach: Blicke doch gen Himmel und zähle die Sterne, wenn du sie zählen kannst! Und er sprach zu ihm: Also wird dein Same sein!

6 Und er glaubte Jehova; und er rechnete es ihm zur Gerechtigkeit.

7 Und er sprach zu ihm: Ich bin Jehova, der dich herausgeführt hat aus Ur in Chaldäa, um dir dieses Land zu geben, es zu besitzen.

8 Und er sprach: Herr, Jehova, woran soll ich erkennen, daß ich es besitzen werde?

9 Da sprach er zu ihm: Hole mir eine dreijährige Färse und eine dreijährige Ziege und einen dreijährigen Widder und eine Turteltaube und eine junge Taube.

10 Und er holte ihm diese alle und zerteilte sie in der Mitte und legte die Hälfte eines jeden der anderen gegenüber; aber das Geflügel zerteilte er nicht.

11 Und die aubvögel stürzten auf die Äser herab; und Abram scheuchte sie hinweg.

12 Und es geschah, als die Sonne untergehen wollte, da fiel ein tiefer Schlaf auf Abram; und siehe, Schrecken, dichte Finsternis überfiel ihn.

13 Und er sprach zu Abram: Gewißlich sollst du wissen, daß dein Same ein Fremdling sein wird in einem Lande, das nicht das ihre ist; und sie werden ihnen dienen, und sie werden sie bedrücken vierhundert Jahre.

14 Aber ich werde die Nation auch richten, welcher sie dienen werden; und danach werden sie ausziehen mit großer Habe.

15 Und du, du wirst zu deinen Vätern eingehen in Frieden, wirst begraben werden in gutem Alter.

16 Und im vierten Geschlecht werden sie hierher zurückkehren; denn die Ungerechtigkeit der Amoriter (Die Amoriter stehen hier und anderswo, als Hauptvolk des Landes, für alle Kanaaniter) ist bis hierher noch nicht voll.

17 Und es geschah, als die Sonne untergegangen und dichte Finsternis geworden war, siehe da, ein rauchender Ofen und eine Feuerflamme, die zwischen jenen Stücken hindurchfuhr. (Vergl. Jer. 34,18. 19)

18 An selbigem Tage machte Jehova einen Bund mit Abram und sprach: Deinem Samen gebe ich dieses Land vom Strome Ägyptens bis an den großen Strom, den Strom Phrath:

19 die Keniter und die Kenisiter und die Kadmoniter

20 und die Hethiter und die Perisiter und die ephaim,

21 und die Amoriter und die Kanaaniter und die Girgasiter und die Jebusiter.

9392. Verses 6-8. And Moses took half of the blood, and put it into basins; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar. And he took the book of the covenant, and read it in the ears of the people; and they said, All that Jehovah hath spoken we will do and hear. And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant that Jehovah hath made with you upon all these words. “And Moses took half of the blood,” signifies Divine truth that has been made of the life and of worship; “and put it into basins,” signifies with man in the things of his memory; “and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar,” signifies Divine truth from the Divine Human of the Lord; “and he took the book of the covenant,” signifies the Word in the letter with which the Word in heaven has been conjoined; “and read it in the ears of the people,” signifies for hearkening and obedience; “and they said, All things that Jehovah hath spoken we will do and hear,” signifies the reception of the truth that proceeds from the Divine Human of the Lord, and obedience from the heart and soul; “and Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people,” signifies adaptation to the reception of man; “and said, Behold the blood of the covenant,” signifies thereby the conjunction of the Lord in respect to the Divine Human with heaven and with earth; “that Jehovah hath made with you upon all these words,” signifies that there is conjunction with the Lord through each and all things of the Word.

Genesis 18

pag-aaral

   

1 Yahweh appeared to him by the oaks of Mamre, as he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day.

2 He lifted up his eyes and looked, and saw that three men stood opposite him. When he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself to the earth,

3 and said, "My lord, if now I have found favor in your sight, please don't go away from your servant.

4 Now let a little water be fetched, wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree.

5 I will get a morsel of bread so you can refresh your heart. After that you may go your way, now that you have come to your servant." They said, "Very well, do as you have said."

6 Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah, and said, "Quickly prepare three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes."

7 Abraham ran to the herd, and fetched a tender and good calf, and gave it to the servant. He hurried to dress it.

8 He took butter, milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set it before them. He stood by them under the tree, and they ate.

9 They asked him, "Where is Sarah, your wife?" He said, "See, in the tent."

10 He said, "I will certainly return to you when the season comes round. Behold, Sarah your wife will have a son." Sarah heard in the tent door, which was behind him.

11 Now Abraham and Sarah were old, well advanced in age. Sarah had passed the age of childbearing.

12 Sarah laughed within herself, saying, "After I have grown old will I have pleasure, my lord being old also?"

13 Yahweh said to Abraham, "Why did Sarah laugh, saying, 'Will I really bear a child, yet I am old?'

14 Is anything too hard for Yahweh? At the set time I will return to you, when the season comes round, and Sarah will have a son."

15 Then Sarah denied, saying, "I didn't laugh," for she was afraid. He said, "No, but you did laugh."

16 The men rose up from there, and looked toward Sodom. Abraham went with them to see them on their way.

17 Yahweh said, "Will I hide from Abraham what I do,

18 since Abraham has surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth will be blessed in him?

19 For I have known him, to the end that he may command his children and his household after him, that they may keep the way of Yahweh, to do righteousness and justice; to the end that Yahweh may bring on Abraham that which he has spoken of him."

20 Yahweh said, "Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous,

21 I will go down now, and see whether their deeds are as bad as the reports which have come to me. If not, I will know."

22 The men turned from there, and went toward Sodom, but Abraham stood yet before Yahweh.

23 Abraham drew near, and said, "Will you consume the righteous with the wicked?

24 What if there are fifty righteous within the city? Will you consume and not spare the place for the fifty righteous who are in it?

25 Be it far from you to do things like that, to kill the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous should be like the wicked. May that be far from you. Shouldn't the Judge of all the earth do right?"

26 Yahweh said, "If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sake."

27 Abraham answered, "See now, I have taken it on myself to speak to the Lord, who am but dust and ashes.

28 What if there will lack five of the fifty righteous? Will you destroy all the city for lack of five?" He said, "I will not destroy it, if I find forty-five there."

29 He spoke to him yet again, and said, "What if there are forty found there?" He said, "I will not do it for the forty's sake."

30 He said, "Oh don't let the Lord be angry, and I will speak. What if there are thirty found there?" He said, "I will not do it, if I find thirty there."

31 He said, "See now, I have taken it on myself to speak to the Lord. What if there are twenty found there?" He said, "I will not destroy it for the twenty's sake."

32 He said, "Oh don't let the Lord be angry, and I will speak just once more. What if ten are found there?" He said, "I will not destroy it for the ten's sake."

33 Yahweh went his way, as soon as he had finished communing with Abraham, and Abraham returned to his place.
