1 Après ces événements, la parole de l’Éternel fut adressée à Abram dans une vision, et il dit: Abram, ne crains point; je suis ton bouclier, et ta récompense sera très grande.
2 Abram répondit: Seigneur Éternel, que me donneras-tu? Je m’en vais sans enfants; et l’héritier de ma maison, c’est Éliézer de Damas.
3 Et Abram dit: Voici, tu ne m’as pas donné de postérité, et celui qui est né dans ma maison sera mon héritier.
4 Alors la parole de l’Éternel lui fut adressée ainsi: Ce n’est pas lui qui sera ton héritier, mais c’est celui qui sortira de tes entrailles qui sera ton héritier.
