Swear

But Abram said to the king of Sodom, "I have lifted my hand to the LORD, God Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth,

For I lift up my hand to heaven and swear, As I live forever,

and say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD: On the day when I chose Israel, I swore to the offspring of the house of Jacob, making myself known to them in the land of Egypt; I swore to them, saying, I am the LORD your God.

Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: I swear that the nations that are all around you shall themselves suffer reproach.

And you shall divide equally what I swore to give to your fathers. This land shall fall to you as your inheritance.

To give

Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you swore by your own self, and said to them, 'I will multiply your offspring as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have promised I will give to your offspring, and they shall inherit it forever.'"

On that day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, "To your offspring I give this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates,

and said, "By myself I have sworn, declares the LORD, because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son,

Sojourn in this land, and I will be with you and will bless you, for to you and to your offspring I will give all these lands, and I will establish the oath that I swore to Abraham your father.

And behold, the LORD stood above it and said, "I am the LORD, the God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac. The land on which you lie I will give to you and to your offspring.

The land that I gave to Abraham and Isaac I will give to you, and I will give the land to your offspring after you."

I am

God spoke to Moses and said to him, "I am the LORD.

God is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not fulfill it?

And also the Glory of Israel will not lie or have regret, for he is not a man, that he should have regret."
