And Abram {H87} said {H559}, Lord {H136} GOD {H3069}, what wilt thou give {H5414} me, seeing I go {H1980} childless {H6185}, and the steward {H1121}{H4943} of my house {H1004} is this {H1931} Eliezer {H461} of Damascus {H1834}?

Avram replied, "ADONAI, God, what good will your gifts be to me if I continue childless; and Eli'ezer from Dammesek inherits my possessions?

But Abram replied, “O Lord GOD, what can You give me, since I remain childless, and the heir of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?”

And Abram said, O Lord Jehovah, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless, and he that shall be possessor of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?
