Genesis 12:1-20

12:1

Now the LORD
<03068>

had said
<0559> (8799)

unto Abram
<087>_,

Get thee out
<03212> (8798)

of thy country
<0776>_,

and from thy kindred
<04138>_,

and from thy father's
<01>

house
<01004>_,

unto a land
<0776>

that I will shew
<07200> (8686)

thee:

12:2

And I will make of thee
<06213> (8799)

a great
<01419>

nation
<01471>_,

and I will bless
<01288> (8762)

thee, and make
<01431> (0)

thy name
<08034>

great
<01431> (8762)_;

and thou shalt be a blessing
<01293>_:

12:3

And I will bless
<01288> (8762)

them that bless
<01288> (8764)

thee, and curse
<0779> (8799)

him that curseth
<07043> (8764)

thee: and in thee shall all families
<04940>

of the earth
<0127>

be blessed
<01288> (8738)_.

12:4

So Abram
<087>

departed
<03212> (8799)_,

as the LORD
<03068>

had spoken
<01696> (8765)

unto him; and Lot
<03876>

went
<03212> (8799)

with him: and Abram
<087>

[was] seventy
<07657> <08141>

and five
<02568>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

when he departed
<03318> (8800)

out of Haran
<02771>_.

12:5

And Abram
<087>

took
<03947> (8799)

Sarai
<08297>

his wife
<0802>_,

and Lot
<03876>

his brother's
<0251>

son
<01121>_,

and all their substance
<07399>

that they had gathered
<07408> (8804)_,

and the souls
<05315>

that they had gotten
<06213> (8804)

in Haran
<02771>_;

and they went forth
<03318> (8799)

to go
<03212> (8800)

into the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>_;

and into the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>

they came
<0935> (8799)_.

12:6

And Abram
<087>

passed through
<05674> (8799)

the land
<0776>

unto the place
<04725>

of Sichem
<07927>_,

unto the plain
<0436>

of Moreh
<04176>_.

And the Canaanite
<03669>

[was] then
<0227>

in the land
<0776>_.

{plain: Heb. plains}

12:7

And the LORD
<03068>

appeared
<07200> (8735)

unto Abram
<087>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Unto thy seed
<02233>

will I give
<05414> (8799)

this
<02063>

land
<0776>_:

and there builded
<01129> (8799)

he an altar
<04196>

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

who appeared
<07200> (8737)

unto him.

12:8

And he removed
<06275> (8686)

from thence unto a mountain
<02022>

on the east
<06924>

of Bethel
<01008>_,

and pitched
<05186> (8799)

his tent
<0168>_,

[having] Bethel
<01008>

on the west
<03220>_,

and Hai
<05857>

on the east
<06924>_:

and there he builded
<01129> (8799)

an altar
<04196>

unto the LORD
<03068>_,

and called
<07121> (8799)

upon the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

12:9

And Abram
<087>

journeyed
<05265> (8799)_,

going on
<01980> (8800)

still
<05265> (8800)

toward the south
<05045>_.

{going...: Heb. in going and journeying}

12:10

And there was a famine
<07458>

in the land
<0776>_:

and Abram
<087>

went down
<03381> (8799)

into Egypt
<04714>

to sojourn
<01481> (8800)

there; for the famine
<07458>

[was] grievous
<03515>

in the land
<0776>_.

12:11

And it came to pass, when
<0834>

he was come near
<07126> (8689)

to enter
<0935> (8800)

into Egypt
<04714>_,

that he said
<0559> (8799)

unto Sarai
<08297>

his wife
<0802>_,

Behold
<02009>

now
<04994>_,

I know
<03045> (8804)

that thou [art] a fair
<03303>

woman
<0802>

to look upon
<04758>_:

12:12

Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Egyptians
<04713>

shall see
<07200> (8799)

thee, that they shall say
<0559> (8804)_,

This [is] his wife
<0802>_:

and they will kill
<02026> (8804)

me, but they will save thee alive
<02421> (8762)_.

12:13

Say
<0559> (8798)_,

I pray thee
<04994>_,

thou [art] my sister
<0269>_:

that
<04616>

it may be well
<03190> (8799)

with me for thy sake; and my soul
<05315>

shall live
<02421> (8804)

because of thee
<01558>_.

12:14

And it came to pass, that, when Abram
<087>

was come
<0935> (8800)

into Egypt
<04714>_,

the Egyptians
<04713>

beheld
<07200> (8799)

the woman
<0802>

that she [was] very
<03966>

fair
<03303>_.

12:15

The princes
<08269>

also of Pharaoh
<06547>

saw
<07200> (8799)

her, and commended
<01984> (8762)

her before
<0413>

Pharaoh
<06547>_:

and the woman
<0802>

was taken
<03947> (8714)

into Pharaoh's
<06547>

house
<01004>_.

12:16

And he entreated
<03190> (0)

Abram
<087>

well
<03190> (8689)

for her sake: and he had sheep
<06629>_,

and oxen
<01241>_,

and he asses
<02543>_,

and menservants
<05650>_,

and maidservants
<08198>_,

and she asses
<0860>_,

and camels
<01581>_.

12:17

And the LORD
<03068>

plagued
<05060> (8762)

Pharaoh
<06547>

and his house
<01004>

with great
<01419>

plagues
<05061>

because of
<01697>

Sarai
<08297>

Abram's
<087>

wife
<0802>_.

12:18

And Pharaoh
<06547>

called
<07121> (8799)

Abram
<087>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

What [is] this [that] thou hast done
<06213> (8804)

unto me? why didst thou not tell
<05046> (8689)

me that she [was] thy wife
<0802>_?

12:19

Why saidst thou
<0559> (8804)_,

She [is] my sister
<0269>_?

so I might have taken
<03947> (8799)

her to me to wife
<0802>_:

now therefore behold thy wife
<0802>_,

take
<03947> (8798)

[her], and go thy way
<03212> (8798)_.

12:20

And Pharaoh
<06547>

commanded
<06680> (8762)

[his] men
<0582>

concerning him: and they sent him away
<07971> (8762)_,

and his wife
<0802>_,

and all that he had.

Genesis 44:24

44:24

And it came to pass when we came up
<05927> (8804)

unto thy servant
<05650>

my father
<01>_,

we told
<05046> (8686)

him the words
<01697>

of my lord
<0113>_.

Exodus 20:11

20:11

For [in] six
<08337>

days
<03117>

the LORD
<03068>

made
<06213> (8804)

heaven
<08064>

and earth
<0776>_,

the sea
<03220>_,

and all that in them [is], and rested
<05117> (8799)

the seventh
<07637>

day
<03117>_:

wherefore the LORD
<03068>

blessed
<01288> (8765)

the sabbath
<07676>

day
<03117>_,

and hallowed
<06942> (8762)

it.

Exodus 31:13-17

31:13

Speak
<01696> (8761)

thou also unto the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Verily
<0389>

my sabbaths
<07676>

ye shall keep
<08104> (8799)_:

for it [is] a sign
<0226>

between me and you throughout your generations
<01755>_;

that [ye] may know
<03045> (8800)

that I [am] the LORD
<03068>

that doth sanctify
<06942> (8764)

you.

31:14

Ye shall keep
<08104> (8804)

the sabbath
<07676>

therefore; for it [is] holy
<06944>

unto you: every one that defileth
<02490> (8764)

it shall surely
<04191> (8800)

be put to death
<04191> (8714)_:

for whosoever doeth
<06213> (8802)

[any] work
<04399>

therein, that soul
<05315>

shall be cut off
<03772> (8738)

from among
<07130>

his people
<05971>_.

31:15

Six
<08337>

days
<03117>

may work
<04399>

be done
<06213> (8735)_;

but in the seventh
<07637>

[is] the sabbath
<07676>

of rest
<07677>_,

holy
<06944>

to the LORD
<03068>_:

whosoever doeth
<06213> (8802)

[any] work
<04399>

in the sabbath
<07676>

day
<03117>_,

he shall surely
<04191> (8800)

be put to death
<04191> (8714)_.

{holy: Heb. holiness}

31:16

Wherefore the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

shall keep
<08104> (8804)

the sabbath
<07676>_,

to observe
<06213> (8800)

the sabbath
<07676>

throughout their generations
<01755>_,

[for] a perpetual
<05769>

covenant
<01285>_.

31:17

It [is] a sign
<0226>

between me and the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

for ever
<05769>_:

for [in] six
<08337>

days
<03117>

the LORD
<03068>

made
<06213> (8804)

heaven
<08064>

and earth
<0776>_,

and on the seventh
<07637>

day
<03117>

he rested
<07673> (8804)_,

and was refreshed
<05314> (8735)_.

Nehemiah 13:15-22

13:15

In those days
<03117>

saw
<07200> (8804)

I in Judah
<03063>

[some] treading
<01869> (8802)

wine presses
<01660>

on the sabbath
<07676>_,

and bringing in
<0935> (8688)

sheaves
<06194>_,

and lading
<06006> (8802)

asses
<02543>_;

as also wine
<03196>_,

grapes
<06025>_,

and figs
<08384>_,

and all [manner of] burdens
<04853>_,

which they brought
<0935> (8688)

into Jerusalem
<03389>

on the sabbath
<07676>

day
<03117>_:

and I testified
<05749> (8686)

[against them] in the day
<03117>

wherein they sold
<04376> (8800)

victuals
<06718>_.

13:16

There dwelt
<03427> (8804)

men of Tyre
<06876>

also therein, which brought
<0935> (8688)

fish
<01709> (8675) <01709>_,

and all manner of ware
<04377>_,

and sold
<04376> (8802)

on the sabbath
<07676>

unto the children
<01121>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and in Jerusalem
<03389>_.

13:17

Then I contended
<07378> (8799)

with the nobles
<02715>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, What evil
<07451>

thing
<01697>

[is] this that ye do
<06213> (8802)_,

and profane
<02490> (8764)

the sabbath
<07676>

day
<03117>_?

13:18

Did
<06213> (8804)

not your fathers
<01>

thus, and did
<0935> (0)

not our God
<0430>

bring
<0935> (8686)

all this evil
<07451>

upon us, and upon this city
<05892>_?

yet ye bring
<0935> (8686)

more
<03254> (8688)

wrath
<02740>

upon Israel
<03478>

by profaning
<02490> (8763)

the sabbath
<07676>_.

13:19

And it came to pass, that when the gates
<08179>

of Jerusalem
<03389>

began to be dark
<06751> (8804)

before
<06440>

the sabbath
<07676>_,

I commanded
<0559> (8799)

that the gates
<01817>

should be shut
<05462> (8735)_,

and charged
<0559> (8799)

that they should not be opened
<06605> (8799)

till after
<0310>

the sabbath
<07676>_:

and [some] of my servants
<05288>

set
<05975> (8689)

I at the gates
<08179>_,

[that] there should no burden
<04853>

be brought in
<0935> (8799)

on the sabbath
<07676>

day
<03117>_.

13:20

So the merchants
<07402> (8802)

and sellers
<04376> (8802)

of all kind of ware
<04465>

lodged
<03885> (8799)

without
<02351>

Jerusalem
<03389>

once
<06471>

or twice
<08147>_.

13:21

Then I testified
<05749> (8686)

against them, and said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Why lodge
<03885> (8801)

ye about
<05048>

the wall
<02346>_?

if ye do [so] again
<08138> (8799)_,

I will lay
<07971> (8799)

hands
<03027>

on you. From that time
<06256>

forth came
<0935> (8804)

they no [more] on the sabbath
<07676>_.

{about: Heb. before}

13:22

And I commanded
<0559> (8799)

the Levites
<03881>

that they should cleanse
<02891> (8693)

themselves, and [that] they should come
<0935> (8802)

[and] keep
<08104> (8802)

the gates
<08179>_,

to sanctify
<06942> (8763)

the sabbath
<07676>

day
<03117>_.

Remember
<02142> (8798)

me, O my God
<0430>_,

[concerning] this also, and spare
<02347> (8798)

me according to the greatness
<07230>

of thy mercy
<02617>_.

{greatness: or, multitude}

Isaiah 58:13

58:13

If thou turn away
<07725> (8686)

thy foot
<07272>

from the sabbath
<07676>_,

[from] doing
<06213> (8800)

thy pleasure
<02656>

on my holy
<06944>

day
<03117>_;

and call
<07121> (8804)

the sabbath
<07676>

a delight
<06027>_,

the holy
<06918>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

honourable
<03513> (8794)_;

and shalt honour
<03513> (8765)

him, not doing
<06213> (8800)

thine own ways
<01870>_,

nor finding
<04672> (8800)

thine own pleasure
<02656>_,

nor speaking
<01696> (8763)

[thine own] words
<01697>_:

Jeremiah 17:22

17:22

Neither carry forth
<03318> (8686)

a burden
<04853>

out of your houses
<01004>

on the sabbath
<07676>

day
<03117>_,

neither do
<06213> (8799)

ye any work
<04399>_,

but hallow
<06942> (8765)

ye the sabbath
<07676>

day
<03117>_,

as I commanded
<06680> (8765)

your fathers
<01>_.

Jeremiah 17:24

17:24

And it shall come to pass, if ye diligently
<08085> (8800)

hearken
<08085> (8799)

unto me, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

to bring
<0935> (8687)

in no burden
<04853>

through the gates
<08179>

of this city
<05892>

on the sabbath
<07676>

day
<03117>_,

but hallow
<06942> (8763)

the sabbath
<07676>

day
<03117>_,

to do
<06213> (8800)

no
<01115>

work
<04399>

therein;

Jeremiah 17:27

17:27

But if ye will not hearken
<08085> (8799)

unto me to hallow
<06942> (8763)

the sabbath
<07676>

day
<03117>_,

and not to bear
<05375> (8800)

a burden
<04853>_,

even entering in
<0935> (8800)

at the gates
<08179>

of Jerusalem
<03389>

on the sabbath
<07676>

day
<03117>_;

then will I kindle
<03341> (8689)

a fire
<0784>

in the gates
<08179>

thereof, and it shall devour
<0398> (8804)

the palaces
<0759>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and it shall not be quenched
<03518> (8799)_.
