that thing which I do;

Seeing  that  Abraham  shall  surely become a  great and mighty  
nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?

For I know  him  that he will command his children and his

do justice and judgment; that the Lord may bring upon Abraham  
that which he hath spoken of him.
