The LORD had said to Abram,
“Leave your native country, your relatives, and your father’s family, and go to the land that I will show you.
I will make you into a great nation.
I will bless you and make you famous, and you will be a blessing to others.
I will bless those who bless you and curse those who treat you with contempt.
All the families on earth will be blessed through you.”

Genesis 12:1-3
