Genesis 12:1--15:21

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:
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>_:
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)_.
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>_.
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)_.
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}
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.
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>_.
And Abram
<087>
journeyed
<05265> (8799)_,
going on
<01980> (8800)
still
<05265> (8800)
toward the south
<05045>_.
{going...: Heb. in going and journeying}
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>_.
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>_:
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)_.
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
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>_?
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)_.
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.
And Abram
<087>
went up
<05927> (8799)
out of Egypt
<04714>_,
he, and his wife
<0802>_,
and all that he had, and Lot
<03876>
with him, into the south
<05045>_.
And Abram
<087>
[was] very
<03966>
rich
<03513> (8804)
in cattle
<04735>_,
in silver
<03701>_,
and in gold
<02091>_.
And he went
<03212> (8799)
on his journeys
<04550>
from the south
<05045>
even to Bethel
<01008>_,
unto the place
<04725>
where his tent
<0168>
had been
<01961> (8804)
at the beginning
<08462>_,
between Bethel
<01008>
and Hai
<05857>_;
Unto the place
<04725>
of the altar
<04196>_,
which he had made
<06213> (8804)
there at the first
<07223>_:
and there Abram
<087>
called
<07121> (8799)
on the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
And Lot
<03876>
also, which went
<01980> (8802)
with
<0854>
Abram
<087>_,
had flocks
<06629>_,
and herds
<01241>_,
and tents
<0168>_.
And the land
<0776>
was not able to bear
<05375> (8804)
them, that they might dwell
<03427> (8800)
together
<03162>_:
for their substance
<07399>
was great
<07227>_,
so that they could
<03201> (8804)
not dwell
<03427> (8800)
together
<03162>_.
And there was a strife
<07379>
between the herdmen
<07462> (8802)
of Abram's
<087>
cattle
<04735>
and the herdmen
<07462> (8802)
of Lot's
<03876>
cattle
<04735>_:
and the Canaanite
<03669>
and the Perizzite
<06522>
dwelled
<03427> (8802)
then in the land
<0776>_.
And Abram
<087>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Lot
<03876>_,
Let there be
<01961> (8799)
no
<0408>
strife
<04808>_,
I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen
<07462> (8802)
and thy herdmen
<07462> (8802)_;
for we
<0582>
[be] brethren
<0251>_.
{brethren: Heb. men brethren}
[Is] not the whole land
<0776>
before thee
<06440>_?
separate thyself
<06504> (8734)_,
I pray thee, from me: if [thou wilt take] the left hand
<08040>_,
then I will go to the right
<03231> (8686)_;
or if [thou depart] to the right hand
<03225>_,
then I will go to the left
<08041> (8686)_.
And Lot
<03876>
lifted up
<05375> (8799)
his eyes
<05869>_,
and beheld
<07200> (8799)
all the plain
<03603>
of Jordan
<03383>_,
that it [was] well watered
<04945>
every where, before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
destroyed
<07843> (8763)
Sodom
<05467>
and Gomorrah
<06017>_,
[even] as the garden
<01588>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
like the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
as thou comest
<0935> (8800)
unto Zoar
<06820>_.
Then Lot
<03876>
chose
<0977> (8799)
him all the plain
<03603>
of Jordan
<03383>_;
and Lot
<03876>
journeyed
<05265> (8799)
east
<06924>_:
and they separated themselves
<06504> (8735)
the one
<0376>
from the other
<0251>_.
Abram
<087>
dwelled
<03427> (8804)
in the land
<0776>
of Canaan
<03667>_,
and Lot
<03876>
dwelled
<03427> (8804)
in the cities
<05892>
of the plain
<03603>_,
and pitched [his] tent
<0167> (8799)
toward
<05704>
Sodom
<05467>_.
But the men
<0582>
of Sodom
<05467>
[were] wicked
<07451>
and sinners
<02400>
before the LORD
<03068>
exceedingly
<03966>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8804)
unto Abram
<087>_,
after
<0310>
that Lot
<03876>
was separated
<06504> (8736)
from him, Lift up
<05375> (8798)
now thine eyes
<05869>_,
and look
<07200> (8798)
from the place
<04725>
where thou art northward
<06828>_,
and southward
<05045>_,
and eastward
<06924>_,
and westward
<03220>_:
For all the land
<0776>
which thou seest
<07200> (8802)_,
to thee will I give it
<05414> (8799)_,
and to thy seed
<02233>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_.
And I will make
<07760> (8804)
thy seed
<02233>
as the dust
<06083>
of the earth
<0776>_:
so that
<0834>
if a man
<0376>
can
<03201> (8799)
number
<04487> (8800)
the dust
<06083>
of the earth
<0776>_,
[then] shall thy seed
<02233>
also be numbered
<04487> (8735)_.
Arise
<06965> (8798)_,
walk
<01980> (8690)
through the land
<0776>
in the length
<0753>
of it and in the breadth
<07341>
of it; for I will give
<05414> (8799)
it unto thee.
Then Abram
<087>
removed [his] tent
<0167> (8799)_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
and dwelt
<03427> (8799)
in the plain
<0436>
of Mamre
<04471>_,
which [is] in Hebron
<02275>_,
and built
<01129> (8799)
there an altar
<04196>
unto the LORD
<03068>_.
{plain: Heb. plains}
And it came to pass in the days
<03117>
of Amraphel
<0569>
king
<04428>
of Shinar
<08152>_,
Arioch
<0746>
king
<04428>
of Ellasar
<0495>_,
Chedorlaomer
<03540>
king
<04428>
of Elam
<05867>_,
and Tidal
<08413>
king
<04428>
of nations
<01471>_;
[That these] made
<06213> (8804)
war
<04421>
with
<0854>
Bera
<01298>
king
<04428>
of Sodom
<05467>_,
and with Birsha
<01306>
king
<04428>
of Gomorrah
<06017>_,
Shinab
<08134>
king
<04428>
of Admah
<0126>_,
and Shemeber
<08038>
king
<04428>
of Zeboiim
<06636>_,
and the king
<04428>
of Bela
<01106>_,
which is
<01931>
Zoar
<06820>_.
All these were joined together
<02266> (8804)
in the vale
<06010>
of Siddim
<07708>_,
which
<01931>
is the salt
<04417>
sea
<03220>_.
Twelve
<06240> <08147>
years
<08141>
they served
<05647> (8804) <0853>
Chedorlaomer
<03540>_,
and in the thirteenth
<07969> <06240>
year
<08141>
they rebelled
<04775> (8804)_.
And in the fourteenth
<06240> <0702>
year
<08141>
came
<0935> (8804)
Chedorlaomer
<03540>_,
and the kings
<04428>
that [were] with him, and smote
<05221> (8686)
the Rephaims
<07497>
in Ashteroth Karnaim
<06255>_,
and the Zuzims
<02104>
in Ham
<01990>_,
and the Emims
<0368>
in Shaveh Kiriathaim
<07741>_,
{Shaveh...: or, The plain of Kiriathaim}
And the Horites
<02752>
in their mount
<02042>
Seir
<08165>_,
unto Elparan
<0364>_,
which [is] by
<05921>
the wilderness
<04057>_.
{Elparan: or, The plain of Paran}
And they returned
<07725> (8799)_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to
<0413>
Enmishpat
<05880>_,
which [is] Kadesh
<06946>_,
and smote
<05221> (8686)
all the country
<07704>
of the Amalekites
<06003>_,
and also the Amorites
<0567>_,
that dwelt
<03427> (8802)
in Hazezontamar
<02688>_.
And there went out
<03318> (8799)
the king
<04428>
of Sodom
<05467>_,
and the king
<04428>
of Gomorrah
<06017>_,
and the king
<04428>
of Admah
<0126>_,
and the king
<04428>
of Zeboiim
<06636>_,
and the king
<04428>
of Bela
<01106>
(the same
<01931>
[is] Zoar
<06820>;)
and they joined
<06186> (8799)
battle
<04421>
with them in the vale
<06010>
of Siddim
<07708>_;
With Chedorlaomer
<03540>
the king
<04428>
of Elam
<05867>_,
and with Tidal
<08413>
king
<04428>
of nations
<01471>_,
and Amraphel
<0569>
king
<04428>
of Shinar
<08152>_,
and Arioch
<0746>
king
<04428>
of Ellasar
<0495>_;
four
<0702>
kings
<04428>
with five
<02568>_.
And the vale
<06010>
of Siddim
<07708>
[was full of]
<0875>
slimepits
<0875> <02564>_;
and the kings
<04428>
of Sodom
<05467>
and Gomorrah
<06017>
fled
<05127> (8799)_,
and fell
<05307> (8799)
there; and they that remained
<07604> (8737)
fled
<05127> (8804)
to the mountain
<02022>_.
And they took
<03947> (8799)
all the goods
<07399>
of Sodom
<05467>
and Gomorrah
<06017>_,
and all their victuals
<0400>_,
and went their way
<03212> (8799)_.
And they took
<03947> (8799)
Lot
<03876>_,
Abram's
<087>
brother's
<0251>
son
<01121>_,
who dwelt
<03427> (8802)
in Sodom
<05467>_,
and his goods
<07399>_,
and departed
<03212> (8799)_.
And there came
<0935> (8799)
one that had escaped
<06412>_,
and told
<05046> (8686)
Abram
<087>
the Hebrew
<05680>_;
for he dwelt
<07931> (8802)
in the plain
<0436>
of Mamre
<04471>
the Amorite
<0567>_,
brother
<0251>
of Eshcol
<0812>_,
and brother
<0251>
of Aner
<06063>_:
and these [were] confederate
<01167> <01285>
with Abram
<087>_.
{plain: Heb. plains}
And when Abram
<087>
heard
<08085> (8799)
that his brother
<0251>
was taken captive
<07617> (8738)_,
he armed
<07324> (8686)
his trained
<02593>
[servants], born
<03211>
in his own house
<01004>_,
three
<07969>
hundred
<03967>
and eighteen
<06240> <08083>_,
and pursued
<07291> (8799)
[them] unto Dan
<01835>_.
{armed: or, led forth} {trained: or, instructed}
And he divided
<02505> (8735)
himself against them, he and his servants
<05650>_,
by night
<03915>_,
and smote
<05221> (8686)
them, and pursued
<07291> (8799)
them unto Hobah
<02327>_,
which [is] on the left hand
<08040>
of Damascus
<01834>_.
And he brought back
<07725> (8686)
all the goods
<07399>_,
and also brought again
<07725> (8689)
his brother
<0251>
Lot
<03876>_,
and his goods
<07399>_,
and the women
<0802>
also, and the people
<05971>_.
And the king
<04428>
of Sodom
<05467>
went out
<03318> (8799)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
him after
<0310>
his return
<07725> (8800)
from the slaughter
<05221> (8687)
of Chedorlaomer
<03540>_,
and of the kings
<04428>
that [were] with him, at the valley
<06010>
of Shaveh
<07740>_,
which
<01931>
[is] the king's
<04428>
dale
<06010>_.
And Melchizedek
<04442>
king
<04428>
of Salem
<08004>
brought forth
<03318> (8689)
bread
<03899>
and wine
<03196>_:
and he [was] the priest
<03548>
of the most high
<05945>
God
<0410>_.
And he blessed
<01288> (8762)
him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Blessed
<01288> (8803)
[be] Abram
<087>
of the most high
<05945>
God
<0410>_,
possessor
<07069> (8802)
of heaven
<08064>
and earth
<0776>_:
And blessed
<01288> (8803)
be the most high
<05945>
God
<0410>_,
which hath delivered
<04042> (8765)
thine enemies
<06862>
into thy hand
<03027>_.
And he gave
<05414> (8799)
him tithes
<04643>
of all.
And the king
<04428>
of Sodom
<05467>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Abram
<087>_,
Give
<05414> (8798)
me the persons
<05315>_,
and take
<03947> (8798)
the goods
<07399>
to thyself. {persons: Heb. souls}
And Abram
<087>
said
<0559> (8799)
to the king
<04428>
of Sodom
<05467>_,
I have lift up
<07311> (8689)
mine hand
<03027>
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
the most high
<05945>
God
<0410>_,
the possessor
<07069> (8802)
of heaven
<08064>
and earth
<0776>_,
That I will not
<0518>
[take] from a thread
<02339>
even to a shoelatchet
<05275> <08288>_,
and that I will not
<0518>
take
<03947> (8799)
any thing that [is] thine, lest thou shouldest say
<0559> (8799)_,
I have made
<06238> (0)
Abram
<087>
rich
<06238> (8689)_:
Save
<01107>
only that which
<0834>
the young men
<05288>
have eaten
<0398> (8804)_,
and the portion
<02506>
of the men
<0582>
which went
<01980> (8804)
with
<0854>
me, Aner
<06063>_,
Eshcol
<0812>_,
and Mamre
<04471>_;
let them
<01992>
take
<03947> (8799)
their portion
<02506>_.
After
<0310>
these things
<01697>
the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came
<01961> (8804)
unto Abram
<087>
in a vision
<04236>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Fear
<03372> (8799)
not, Abram
<087>_:
I [am] thy shield
<04043>_,
[and] thy exceeding
<03966>
great
<07235> (8687)
reward
<07939>_.
And Abram
<087>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_,
what wilt thou give
<05414> (8799)
me, seeing I go
<01980> (8802)
childless
<06185>_,
and the steward
<01121> <04943>
of my house
<01004>
[is] this
<01931>
Eliezer
<0461>
of Damascus
<01834>_?
And Abram
<087>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Behold, to me thou hast given
<05414> (8804)
no
<03808>
seed
<02233>_:
and, lo, one born
<01121>
in my house
<01004>
is mine heir
<03423> (8802)_.
And, behold, the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
[came] unto him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
This shall not be thine heir
<03423> (8799)_;
but he that shall come forth
<03318> (8799)
out of thine own bowels
<04578>
shall be thine heir
<03423> (8799)_.
And he brought him forth
<03318> (8686)
abroad
<02351>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Look
<05027> (8685)
now toward heaven
<08064>_,
and tell
<05608> (8798)
the stars
<03556>_,
if thou be able
<03201> (8799)
to number
<05608> (8800)
them: and he said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, So
<03541>
shall thy seed
<02233>
be.
And he believed
<0539> (8689)
in the LORD
<03068>_;
and he counted
<02803> (8799)
it to him for righteousness
<06666>_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, I [am] the LORD
<03068>
that brought thee out
<03318> (8689)
of Ur
<0218>
of the Chaldees
<03778>_,
to give
<05414> (8800)
thee this land
<0776>
to inherit
<03423> (8800)
it.
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_,
whereby
<04100>
shall I know
<03045> (8799)
that I shall inherit it
<03423> (8799)_?
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Take
<03947> (8798)
me an heifer
<05697>
of three years old
<08027> (8794)_,
and a she goat
<05795>
of three years old
<08027> (8794)_,
and a ram
<0352>
of three years old
<08027> (8794)_,
and a turtledove
<08449>_,
and a young pigeon
<01469>_.
And he took
<03947> (8799)
unto him all these, and divided
<01334> (8762)
them in the midst
<08432>_,
and laid
<05414> (8799)
each
<0376>
piece
<01335>
one against
<07125> (8800)
another
<07453>_:
but the birds
<06833>
divided
<01334> (8804)
he not.
And when the fowls
<05861>
came down
<03381> (8799)
upon the carcases
<06297>_,
Abram
<087>
drove them away
<05380> (8686)_.
And when the sun
<08121>
was going down
<0935> (8800)_,
a deep sleep
<08639>
fell
<05307> (8804)
upon Abram
<087>_;
and, lo, an horror
<0367>
of great
<01419>
darkness
<02825>
fell
<05307> (8802)
upon him.
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto Abram
<087>_,
Know
<03045> (8799)
of a surety
<03045> (8800)
that thy seed
<02233>
shall be a stranger
<01616>
in a land
<0776>
[that is] not theirs, and shall serve
<05647> (8804)
them; and they shall afflict
<06031> (8765)
them four
<0702>
hundred
<03967>
years
<08141>_;
And also that nation
<01471>_,
whom they shall serve
<05647> (8799)_,
will I judge
<01777> (8802)_:
and afterward
<0310> <03651>
shall they come out
<03318> (8799)
with great
<01419>
substance
<07399>_.
And thou shalt go
<0935> (8799)
to thy fathers
<01>
in peace
<07965>_;
thou shalt be buried
<06912> (8735)
in a good
<02896>
old age
<07872>_.
But in the fourth
<07243>
generation
<01755>
they shall come hither
<02008>
again
<07725> (8799)_:
for the iniquity
<05771>
of the Amorites
<0567>
[is] not yet
<02008>
full
<08003>_.
And it came to pass, that, when the sun
<08121>
went down
<0935> (8804)_,
and it was dark
<05939>_,
behold a smoking
<06227>
furnace
<08574>_,
and a burning
<0784>
lamp
<03940>
that passed
<05674> (8804)
between
<0996>
those pieces
<01506>_.
{a burning...: Heb. a lamp of fire}
In the same
<01931>
day
<03117>
the LORD
<03068>
made
<03772> (8804)
a covenant
<01285>
with Abram
<087>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Unto thy seed
<02233>
have I given
<05414> (8804)
this land
<0776>_,
from the river
<05104>
of Egypt
<04714>
unto the great
<01419>
river
<05104>_,
the river
<05104>
Euphrates
<06578>_:
The Kenites
<07017>_,
and the Kenizzites
<07074>_,
and the Kadmonites
<06935>_,
And the Hittites
<02850>_,
and the Perizzites
<06522>_,
and the Rephaims
<07497>_,
And the Amorites
<0567>_,
and the Canaanites
<03669>_,
and the Girgashites
<01622>_,
and the Jebusites
<02983>_.
