Genesis 15:11 in Context — Genesis 15
9 Et l’Éternel lui dit: Prends une génisse de trois ans, une chèvre de trois ans, un bélier de trois ans, une tourterelle et une jeune colombe.
10 Abram prit tous ces animaux, les coupa par le milieu, et mit chaque morceau l’un vis-à-vis de l’autre; mais il ne partagea point les oiseaux.
11 Les oiseaux de proie s’abattirent sur les cadavres; et Abram les chassa.
12 Au coucher du soleil, un profond sommeil tomba sur Abram; et voici, une frayeur et une grande obscurité vinrent l’assaillir.
13 Et l’Éternel dit à Abram: Sache que tes descendants seront étrangers dans un pays qui ne sera point à eux; ils y seront asservis, et on les opprimera pendant quatre cents ans.
