The King James Version Bible

Genesis 15:11-17

  1. And when the fowls came down upon the carcases, Abram drove them away.

  2. And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.

  3. And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;

  4. And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.

  5. And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.

  6. But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.

  7. And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces.
