Genesis 15:5

Hebrew Bible

4 But look, the Lord’s message came to him: “This man will not be your heir, but instead a son who comes from your own body will be your heir.” 5 The Lord took him outside and said, “Gaze into the sky and count the stars—if you are able to count them!” Then he said to him, “So will your descendants be.” 6 Abram believed the Lord, and the Lord credited it as righteousness to him.

1 Enoch 33:2

Pseudepigrapha

2 And to the east of those beasts I saw the ends of the earth whereon the heaven rests, and the portals of the heaven open. 3 And I saw how the stars of heaven come forth, and I counted the portals out of which they proceed, and wrote down all their outlets, of each individual star by itself, according to their number and their names, their courses and their positions, and their times and their months, as Uriel the holy angel who was with me showed me. 4 He showed all things to me and wrote them down for me: also their names he wrote for me, and their laws and their companies.
