בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֗וּא
in_the=day (the)=that
It is still nighttime at this point (See: verse 17), so the word day refers generally here to a 24-hour day; it does not refer to daytime. Alternate translation: “On that very day”

כָּרַ֧ת יְהוָ֛ה
made YHWH

אֶת אַבְרָ֖ם בְּרִ֣ית
DOM Avram covenant
See how you translated covenant in Gen 9:9, 11-13, 15-17. Alternate translation: “a peace covenant with Abram”

לְזַרְעֲךָ֗ נָתַ֨תִּי֙ אֶת הָאָ֣רֶץ הַזֹּ֔את
to,descendants,your I_give DOM the=earth/land the,this
In the Hebrew text “to your offspring/descendants” is first in this quote to emphasize Abram’s descendants. Do what is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “I am giving your offspring this land,” or “I hereby give this land to your offspring”
מִנְּהַ֣ר מִצְרַ֔יִם
from,river Miʦrayim/(Egypt)
This phrase probably refers to the Wadi El-Arish (not the Nile River), which is on the border between Egypt and Israel. It is best in a translation to leave this general as the Hebrew text does.
עַד הַנָּהָ֥ר הַגָּדֹ֖ל נְהַר פְּרָֽת
until the=river the=big/great(sg) river Fərāt
Alternate translation: “to the big Euphrates River in the north,”
15:1-21 The Lord made a formal covenant with Abram, solemnly confirming the promises made at his call (12:1-3). There would be a long period of slavery for Abram’s descendants before these promises would be completely fulfilled.
