12 And when the sun was down, there fell a slumber upon Abram. And lo, fear and great darkness came upon him.
13 And he said unto Abram, "Know this of a surety, that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that pertaineth not unto them. And they shall make bondmen of them and entreat them evil, four hundred years.
14 But the nation whom they shall serve, will I judge. And afterward shall they come out with great substance.
15 Nevertheless, thou shalt go unto thy fathers in peace, and shalt be buried when thou art of a good age:
16 and in the fourth generation they shall come hither again, for the wickedness of the Amorites is not yet full."

19 the Kenites, the Kenizzites, the Kadmonites,
20 the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Giants,
21 the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Girgashites and the Jebusites."
