Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1After these things the LORD’s word came to Abram in a vision, saying, “Don’t be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward.”
1這事以後，耶和華在異象中有話對 亞伯蘭 說：「 亞伯蘭 ，你不要懼怕！我是你的盾牌，必大大地賞賜你。」
2Abram said, “Lord GOD, what will you give me, since I go childless, and he who will inherit my estate is Eliezer of Damascus?”
2亞伯蘭 說：「主耶和華啊，我既無子，你還賜我甚麼呢？並且要承受我家業的是 大馬士革 人 以利以謝 。」
3Abram said, “Behold, you have given no children to me: and, behold, one born in my house is my heir.”
3亞伯蘭 又說：「你沒有給我兒子；那生在我家中的人就是我的後嗣。」
4Behold, the LORD’s word came to him, saying, “This man will not be your heir, but he who will come out of your own body will be your heir.”
4耶和華又有話對他說：「這人必不成為你的後嗣；你本身所生的才成為你的後嗣。」
5The LORD brought him outside, and said, “Look now toward the sky, and count the stars, if you are able to count them.” He said to Abram, “So your offspring will be.”
5於是領他走到外邊，說：「你向天觀看，數算眾星，能數得過來嗎？」又對他說：「你的後裔將要如此。」
6He believed in the LORD, who credited it to him for righteousness.
6亞伯蘭 信耶和華，耶和華就以此為他的義。
7He said to Abram, “I am the LORD who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give you this land to inherit it.”
7耶和華又對他說：「我是耶和華，曾領你出了 迦勒底 的 吾珥 ，為要將這地賜你為業。」
8He said, “Lord GOD, how will I know that I will inherit it?”
8亞伯蘭 說：「主耶和華啊，我怎能知道必得這地為業呢？」
9He said to him, “Bring me a heifer three years old, a female goat three years old, a ram three years old, a turtledove, and a young pigeon.”
9他說：「你為我取一隻三年的母牛，一隻三年的母山羊，一隻三年的公綿羊，一隻斑鳩，一隻雛鴿。」
10He brought him all these, and divided them in the middle, and laid each half opposite the other; but he didn’t divide the birds.
10亞伯蘭 就取了這些來，每樣劈開，分成兩半，一半對着一半地擺列，只有鳥沒有劈開。
11The birds of prey came down on the carcasses, and Abram drove them away.
11有鷙鳥下來，落在那死畜的肉上， 亞伯蘭 就把牠嚇飛了。
12When the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell on Abram. Now terror and great darkness fell on him.
12日頭正落的時候， 亞伯蘭 沉沉地睡了；忽然有驚人的大黑暗落在他身上。
13He said to Abram, “Know for sure that your offspring will live as foreigners in a land that is not theirs, and will serve them. They will afflict them four hundred years.
13耶和華對 亞伯蘭 說：「你要的確知道，你的後裔必寄居別人的地，又服事那地的人；那地的人要苦待他們四百年。
14I will also judge that nation, whom they will serve. Afterward they will come out with great wealth;
14並且他們所要服事的那國，我要懲罰，後來他們必帶着許多財物從那裏出來。
15but you will go to your fathers in peace. You will be buried at a good old age.
15但你要享大壽數，平平安安地歸到你列祖那裏，被人埋葬。
16In the fourth generation they will come here again, for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet full.”
16到了第四代，他們必回到此地，因為 亞摩利 人的罪孽還沒有滿盈。」
17It came to pass that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold, a smoking furnace and a flaming torch passed between these pieces.
17日落天黑，不料有冒煙的爐並燒着的火把從那些肉塊中經過。
18In that day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, “I have given this land to your offspring, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates:
18當那日，耶和華與 亞伯蘭 立約，說：「我已賜給你的後裔，從 埃及河 直到 幼發拉底 大河之地，
19the land of the Kenites, the Kenizzites, the Kadmonites,
19就是 基尼 人、 基尼洗 人、 甲摩尼 人、
20the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Rephaim,
20赫 人、 比利洗 人、 利乏音 人、
21the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.”
21亞摩利 人、 迦南 人、 革迦撒 人、 耶布斯 人之地。」
