Genesis 17:3-5
New Living Translation
3 At this, Abram fell face down on the ground. Then God said to him, 4 “This is my covenant with you: I will make you the father of a multitude of nations! 5 What’s more, I am changing your name. It will no longer be Abram. Instead, you will be called Abraham,[a] for you will be the father of many nations.

- 17:5 Abram means “exalted father”; Abraham sounds like a Hebrew term that means “father of many.”
