¹³ Then God said to Abram, “Know for certain that ^(A)your seed will be sojourners in a land that is not theirs, ^[a]and ^(B)they will be enslaved and mistreated ^(C)four hundred years. ¹⁴ But I will also judge the nation to whom they are enslaved, and afterward they will come out ^(D)with ^[b]many possessions. ¹⁵ As for you, ^(E)you shall go to your fathers in peace; you will be buried at a good old age. ¹⁶ Then in ^(F)the fourth generation they will return here, for ^(G)the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet complete.”

¹⁷ Now it happened that the sun had set, and it was very dark, and behold, there appeared a smoking oven and a flaming torch which ^(H)passed between these pieces. ¹⁸ On that day Yahweh cut a covenant with Abram, saying,

^19 (K)the Kenite and the Kenizzite and the Kadmonite ²⁰ and the Hittite and the Perizzite and the Rephaim ²¹ and the Amorite and the Canaanite and the Girgashite and the Jebusite.”

⁴⁰ Now the time ^[a]that the sons of Israel lived in Egypt was ^(A)430 years.

⁶ But ^(A)God spoke in this way, that his seed would be sojourners in a foreign land, and that they would ^[a]be enslaved and mistreated for four hundred years.
