3 Entonces Abram cayó sobre su rostro, y Dios habló con él diciendo:
4 Yo, he aquí mi pacto contigo: Serás padre de muchedumbre de gentes:
5 Y no se llamará más tu nombre Abram, sino que será tu nombre Abraham, porque te he puesto por padre de muchedumbre de gentes.
6 Y multiplicarte he mucho en gran manera, y te pondré en gentes, y reyes saldrán de ti.
7 Y estableceré mi pacto entre mí y ti, y tu simiente después de ti en sus generaciones, por alianza perpetua, para serte á ti por Dios, y á tu simiente después de ti.
