Then the Lord said to him,“ Know for certain that for four hundred years your descendants will be strangers in a country not their own and that they will be enslaved and mistreated there.

Then the Lord said to him,“ You can be sure of what I am about to tell you. For 400 years, your family who comes after you will be strangers in another country. They will become slaves there and will be treated badly.

Then the Lord said to Abram,“ Know for certain that your offspring will be sojourners in a land that is not theirs and will be servants there, and they will be afflicted for four hundred years.

神这样说：‘他的后裔要在他人之地做寄居的，那里的人要奴役、虐待他们四百年。可是我要惩罚那奴役他们的国家。’神又说：‘这些事以后，他们将要出来，在这地方事奉我。’

我说的这话是：四百三十年以后出现的律法，不能废弃神预先立好的约，使那应许无效。

“随着神向亚伯拉罕所宣告的那应许时期临近，以色列子民在埃及兴旺、增多，

我必把你现在的寄居之地，就是迦南全地，赐给你和你的后裔作永远的产业；我也必作他们的神。”

后来以色列来到埃及，雅各寄居在含族之地。耶和华使他的子民生养极多，使他们比敌人更强盛。他又使敌人的心转去恨他的子民，用诡计对付他的仆人们。

他说：“我要把迦南地赐给你，作为你们继业的份。”那时他们人数稀少，实在很少，在那地是寄居的；

因着信，亚伯拉罕蒙召的时候，就顺从出发，往他将要得为继业的地方去。他出发的时候，还不知道往哪里去。因着信，他做为外人客居在应许之地，住在帐幕里，与同一个应许的共同继承人以撒、雅各一样，因为他等待着那座有根基的城；那城是神所设计、所建造的。同样因着信，不能生育的撒拉，自己虽然过了年龄，还是领受了怀孕生子的能力，原来她认为向她应许的那一位是信实的。所以从一个如同已经死了的人，就生出了许多人，像天空的星那样众多，像海边的沙那样无法数算。这些人都怀着信仰死去，没有得到那些所应许的，却远远地看见并且欢迎它们，又承认自己在地上是异乡人，是寄居的。
