1. Mosebok 15,12

Abraham
Fear

10 Abram brakte alt dette til Ham, delte dem i to, og la halvdelene overfor hverandre; men han delte ikke fuglene.

11 Da kom rovfugler ned over skrottene, men Abram jaget dem bort.

Mens solen gikk ned, falt Abram i dyp søvn, og en fryktelig og stor mørke kom over ham.

13 Da sa Herren til Abram: «Vit for visst at dine etterkommere skal være fremmede i et land som ikke er deres eget, hvor de skal bli slaver og undertrykt i fire hundre år.

14 Men jeg vil dømme det folket de tjener, og etterpå skal de komme ut med store eiendeler.
