The Call of Abram

Genesis 12:1-4

Now the LORD said to Abram, “Get out of your country, and from your relatives, and from your father’s house, to the land that I will show you.

I will make of you a great nation. I will bless you and make your name great. You will be a blessing.

I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you. All of the families of the earth will be blessed in you.”

So Abram went, as the LORD had spoken to him. Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed out of Haran.
