Genesis 15

¹ Later Yahweh spoke to Abram in a dream. "Do not be scared, Abram. I am here. I am your shield. I keep you safe. I am your prize. I am worth more than everything!"

⁴ Yahweh spoke back. "No! That man will not get your things. Your son will. A son from your own body!"

⁹ Yahweh said, "Bring me a cow, a goat, and a ram. Each three years old. Also bring a dove and a young bird."

¹¹ Big birds came down from the sky! They wanted the meat. Abram waved his arms. He chased them away.

¹² The sun went down. A deep sleep hit Abram. He could not stay awake. Thick scary darkness wrapped around him.
