14 but I will bring judgment on the nation which they serve, and afterward they shall come out with great possessions.

15 As for yourself, you shall go to your fathers in peace; you shall be buried in a good old age.

16 And they shall come back here in the fourth generation; for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet complete."

19 the land of the Ken'ites, the Ken'izzites, the Kad'monites,

20 the Hittites, the Per'izzites, the Reph'aim,

21 the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Gir'gashites and the Jeb'usites."
