“As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you,
And you will be the father of a (A)multitude of nations.
No longer shall you be named [a]Abram,
But (B)your name shall be [b]Abraham;
For (C)I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.

I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you, and (D)kings will come from you. I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your [c]descendants after you throughout their generations as an (E)everlasting covenant, (F)to be God to you and (G)to your [d]descendants after you.
