A Covenant with Abimelech

²² And it came to pass at that time that ^(A)Abimelech and Phichol, the commander of his army, spoke to Abraham, saying, ^(B)“God is with you in all that you do.

^13 (A)And behold, the Lord stood above it and said: ^(B)“I am the Lord God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac; ^(C)the land on which you lie I will give to you and your descendants.

¹⁵ Behold, ^(A)I am with you and will ^(B)keep^[a] you wherever you go, and will ^(C)bring you back to this land; for ^(D)I will not leave you ^(E)until I have done what I have spoken to you.”

²⁹ It is in my power to do you harm, but the ^(A)God of your father spoke to me ^(B)last night, saying, ‘Be careful that you speak to Jacob neither good nor bad.’

^42 (A)Unless the God of my father, the God of Abraham and ^(B)the Fear of Isaac, had been with me, surely now you would have sent me away empty-handed. ^(C)God has seen my affliction and the labor of my hands, and ^(D)rebuked you last night.”

⁵³ The God of Abraham, the God of Nahor, and the God of their father ^(A)judge between us.” And Jacob ^(B)swore by ^(C)the ^[a]Fear of his father Isaac.

⁵ Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, ^(A)“I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
