Read it in contextGenesis 15:2–9
2 Abram replied, “Lord Yahweh, what can you give me, when I am going on without children and the one who will inherit my household is Eliezer of Damascus?” 3 Abram went on, “Look, you have not given me any offspring, so someone from my household will inherit from me.” 4 Then suddenly the word of Yahweh came to him: “This man will not inherit from you; someone who comes from your own body will be the one to inherit from you.” 5 He took him outdoors and said, “Look up toward the heavens and count the stars, if you can count them.” Then he told him, “So will your offspring be.” 6 Abram believed Yahweh, and he credited it to him as righteousness. 7 He also said to him, “I am Yahweh, who led you out of Ur of the Chaldeans to give you this land as your own possession.” 8 Abram asked, “Lord Yahweh, how am I to know that I will take possession of it?” 9 He told him, “Get me a three-year-old heifer, a three-year-old she-goat, a three-year-old ram, a turtledove, and a young pigeon.”
