After these things the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision: “Fear not, Abram, I am your shield; your reward shall be very great.” But Abram said, “O Lord God,
what will you give me, for I continue childless, and the heir of my
house is Eliezer of Damascus?” And Abram said, “Behold, you have given
me no offspring, and a member of my household will be my heir.” And
behold, the word of the Lord came to him: “This
man shall not be your heir; your very own son shall be your heir.” And
he brought him outside and said, “Look toward heaven, and number the
stars, if you are able to number them.” Then he said to him, “So shall
your offspring be.” ...
Genesis 14:16 ESV /
Then he brought back all the possessions, and also brought back his
kinsman Lot with his possessions, and the women and the people.
Joshua 9:1-27 ESV /
As soon as all the kings who were beyond the Jordan in the hill
country and in the lowland all along the coast of the Great Sea toward
Lebanon, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the
Hivites, and the Jebusites, heard of this, they gathered together as
one to fight against Joshua and Israel. But when the inhabitants of
Gibeon heard what Joshua had done to Jericho and to Ai, they on their
part acted with cunning and went and made ready provisions and took
worn-out sacks for their donkeys, and wineskins, worn-out and torn and
mended, with worn-out, patched sandals on their feet, and worn-out
clothes. And all their provisions were dry and crumbly. ...
Mark 9:43-48 ESV
And if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for
you to enter life crippled than with two hands to go to hell, to the
unquenchable fire. And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is
better for you to enter life lame than with two feet to be thrown into
hell. And if your eye causes you to sin, tear it out. It is better for
you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be
thrown into hell, ‘where their worm does not die and the fire is not
quenched.’
