God’s Covenant with Abram

1 After these things the word of the Lord came to Abram in a ^svision: “Fear not, Abram, I am your ^tshield; your reward shall be very great.”

17 And God heard the voice of the boy, and ^hthe angel of God called to Hagar from heaven and said to her, “What troubles you, Hagar? Fear not, for God has heard the voice of the boy where he is.

24 And the Lord appeared to him the same night and said, ^z“I am the God of Abraham your father. ^aFear not, for I am with you and will bless you and ^bmultiply your offspring for my servant Abraham’s sake.”
