Genesis 13:15

But the humble shall inherit the land, and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

For Yahweh takes pleasure in his people. He crowns the humble with salvation.

Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct that his deeds are done in gentleness of wisdom.

The humble also will increase their joy in Yahweh, and the poor among men will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.

He will guide the humble in justice. He will teach the humble his way.

I will make of you a great nation. I will bless you and make your name great. You will be a blessing.

His soul will dwell at ease. His offspring will inherit the land.

Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls.

I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who treats you with contempt. All the families of the earth will be blessed through you.”

Then your people will all be righteous. They will inherit the land forever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.

“I am a stranger and a foreigner living with you. Give me a possession of a burying-place with you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.”

Yahweh appeared to him, and said, “Don’t go down into Egypt. Live in the land I will tell you about.

For their substance was too great for them to dwell together, and the land of their travels couldn’t bear them because of their livestock.

Jacob said to Joseph, “God Almighty appeared to me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me,

Moreover he said, “I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” Moses hid his face because he was afraid to look at God.

I have also established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their travels, in which they lived as aliens.

I will bring you into the land which I swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob; and I will give it to you for a heritage: I am Yahweh.’ ”

I will set your border from the Red Sea even to the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness to the River; for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you shall drive them out before you.

“When you have come into the land of Canaan, which I give to you for a possession, and I put a spreading mildew in a house in the land of your possession,

I will walk among you, and will be your God, and you will be my people.

Behold, I have set the land before you. Go in and possess the land which Yahweh swore to your fathers—to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob—to give to them and to their offspring after them.’ ”

Solomon ruled over all the kingdoms from the River to the land of the Philistines, and to the border of Egypt. They brought tribute and served Solomon all the days of his life.

the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac.

saying, “I will give you the land of Canaan, The lot of your inheritance,”

He ruled over all the kings from the River even to the land of the Philistines, and to the border of Egypt.

There have also been mighty kings over Jerusalem, who have ruled over all the country beyond the River; and tribute, custom, and toll, was paid to them.

saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance,”

Yahweh’s curse is in the house of the wicked, but he blesses the habitation of the righteous.

The righteous will never be removed, but the wicked will not dwell in the land.

It will happen in that day that Yahweh will thresh from the flowing stream of the Euphrates to the brook of Egypt; and you will be gathered one by one, children of Israel.

“But you, Israel, my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the offspring of Abraham my friend,

The Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the Good News beforehand to Abraham, saying, “In you all the nations will be blessed.”

gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

By faith, Abraham, when he was called, obeyed to go out to the place which he was to receive for an inheritance. He went out, not knowing where he went.

So the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him as righteousness,” and he was called the friend of God.

to the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first. There Abram called on Yahweh’s name.

Abraham traveled from there toward the land of the South, and lived between Kadesh and Shur. He lived as a foreigner in Gerar.

I will send an angel before you; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

Not for your righteousness or for the uprightness of your heart do you go in to possess their land; but for the wickedness of these nations Yahweh your God does drive them out from before you, and that he may establish the word which Yahweh swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.

that he may establish you today as his people, and that he may be your God, as he spoke to you and as he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.

Aren’t they all serving spirits, sent out to do service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?

In that day Yahweh made a covenant with Abram, saying, “I have given this land to your offspring, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates:

Yahweh, the God of heaven—who took me from my father’s house, and from the land of my birth, who spoke to me, and who swore to me, saying, ‘I will give this land to your offspring—he will send his angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from there.

Behold, Yahweh stood above it, and said, “I am Yahweh, the God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac. I will give the land you lie on to you and to your offspring.

The land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give it to you, and to your offspring after you I will give the land.”

Joseph said to his brothers, “I am dying, but God will surely visit you, and bring you up out of this land to the land which he swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.”

Yahweh said to him, “This is the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your offspring.’ I have caused you to see it with your eyes, but you shall not go over there.”

So Yahweh gave to Israel all the land which he swore to give to their fathers. They possessed it, and lived in it.

Arise, walk through the land in its length and in its width; for I will give it to you.”

since Abraham will surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth will be blessed in him?

Moses said to Hobab, the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses’ father-in-law, “We are journeying to the place of which Yahweh said, ‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us, and we will treat you well; for Yahweh has spoken good concerning Israel.”

Have I conceived all this people? Have I brought them out, that you should tell me, ‘Carry them in your bosom, as a nurse carries a nursing infant, to the land which you swore to their fathers?’

“Command the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘When you come into the land of Canaan (this is the land that shall fall to you for an inheritance, even the land of Canaan according to its borders),

then hear in heaven, and forgive the sin of your people Israel, and bring them again to the land which you gave to their fathers.

For such as are blessed by him shall inherit the land. Those who are cursed by him shall be cut off.

The righteous shall inherit the land, and live in it forever.

Your holy people possessed it but a little while. Our adversaries have trodden down your sanctuary.

and gave them this land, which you swore to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey.

You shall inherit it, one as well as another; for I swore to give it to your fathers. This land will fall to you for inheritance.

Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.
