16. and said, “‘I solemnly swear by my own name,’ decrees the Lord, ‘that because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son,
17. I will indeed bless you, and I will greatly multiply your descendants so that they will be as countless as the stars in the sky or the grains of sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the strongholds of their enemies.
18. Because you have obeyed me, all the nations of the earth will pronounce blessings on one another using the name of your descendants.’”
19. Then Abraham returned to his servants, and they set out together for Beer Sheba where Abraham stayed.
20. After these things Abraham was told, “Milcah also has borne children to your brother Nahor –
21. Uz the firstborn, his brother Buz, Kemuel (the father of Aram),
22. Kesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel.”
23. (Now Bethuel became the father of Rebekah.) These were the eight sons Milcah bore to Abraham’s brother Nahor.
24. His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore him children – Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
