14 Y Jehová dijo á Abram, después que Lot se apartó de él: Alza ahora tus ojos, y mira desde el lugar donde estás hacia el Aquilón, y al Mediodía, y al Oriente y al Occidente;
15 Porque toda la tierra que ves, la daré á ti y á tu simiente para siempre.
16 Y haré tu simiente como el polvo de la tierra: que si alguno podrá contar el polvo de la tierra, también tu simiente será contada.
17 Levántate, ve por la tierra á lo largo de ella y á su ancho; porque á ti la tengo de dar.
