Had possession

Therefore Pharaoh treated Abram well for her sake; he acquired sheep, oxen, male and female donkeys, male and female servants, and camels.

Now Abram was extremely rich in livestock and in silver and in gold.

He also possessed 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke (pairs) of oxen, 500 female donkeys, and a very great number of servants, so that this man was the greatest [and wealthiest and most respected] of all the men of the east (northern Arabia).

And the Lord blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning; for he had 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 yoke of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.

Wealth and riches are in his house,
And his righteousness endures forever.

Let our barns be full, supplying every kind of produce,
And our flocks bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields;

The blessing of the Lord brings [true] riches,
And He adds no sorrow to it [for it comes as a blessing from God].
