16 Saying, I have taken an oath by my name, says the Lord, because you have done this and have not kept back from me your dearly loved only son,

17 That I will certainly give you my blessing, and your seed will be increased like the stars of heaven and the sand by the seaside; your seed will take the land of those who are against them;

18 And your seed will be a blessing to all the nations of the earth, because you have done what I gave you orders to do.

16 说: "耶和华说: ‘我指着自己起誓, 你既然作了这事, 没有留下你的独生子,

17 我必定赐福给你, 必使你的后裔繁多, 像天上的星, 海边的沙; 你的后裔必占领仇敌的城门。

18 地上万国都要因你的后裔得福, 因为你听从了我的话。’"
