Genesis 15:1--18:33

15:1

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>_.

15:2

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>_?

15:3

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)_.

15:4

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)_.

15:5

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.

15:6

And he believed
<0539> (8689)

in the LORD
<03068>_;

and he counted
<02803> (8799)

it to him for righteousness
<06666>_.

15:7

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.

15:8

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_,

whereby
<04100>

shall I know
<03045> (8799)

that I shall inherit it
<03423> (8799)_?

15:9

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>_.

15:10

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.

15:11

And when the fowls
<05861>

came down
<03381> (8799)

upon the carcases
<06297>_,

Abram
<087>

drove them away
<05380> (8686)_.

15:12

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.

15:13

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>_;

15:14

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>_.

15:15

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>_.

15:16

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>_.

15:17

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}

15:18

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>_:

15:19

The Kenites
<07017>_,

and the Kenizzites
<07074>_,

and the Kadmonites
<06935>_,

15:20

And the Hittites
<02850>_,

and the Perizzites
<06522>_,

and the Rephaims
<07497>_,

15:21

And the Amorites
<0567>_,

and the Canaanites
<03669>_,

and the Girgashites
<01622>_,

and the Jebusites
<02983>_.

16:1

Now Sarai
<08297>

Abram's
<087>

wife
<0802>

bare
<03205> (0)

him no
<03808>

children
<03205> (8804)_:

and she had an handmaid
<08198>_,

an Egyptian
<04713>_,

whose name
<08034>

[was] Hagar
<01904>_.

16:2

And Sarai
<08297>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Abram
<087>_,

Behold now, the LORD
<03068>

hath restrained me
<06113> (8804)

from bearing
<03205> (8800)_:

I pray thee, go in
<0935> (8798)

unto my maid
<08198>_;

it may
<0194>

be that I may obtain children
<01129> (8735)

by her. And Abram
<087>

hearkened
<08085> (8799)

to the voice
<06963>

of Sarai
<08297>_.

{obtain...: Heb. be built by her}

16:3

And Sarai
<08297>

Abram's
<087>

wife
<0802>

took
<03947> (8799)

Hagar
<01904>

her maid
<08198>

the Egyptian
<04713>_,

after
<07093>

Abram
<087>

had dwelt
<03427> (8800)

ten
<06235>

years
<08141>

in the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>_,

and gave
<05414> (8799)

her to her husband
<0376>

Abram
<087>

to be his wife
<0802>_.

16:4

And he went in
<0935> (8799)

unto Hagar
<01904>_,

and she conceived
<02029> (8799)_:

and when she saw
<07200> (8799)

that she had conceived
<02029> (8804)_,

her mistress
<01404>

was despised
<07043> (8799)

in her eyes
<05869>_.

16:5

And Sarai
<08297>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Abram
<087>_,

My wrong
<02555>

[be] upon thee: I have given
<05414> (8804)

my maid
<08198>

into thy bosom
<02436>_;

and when she saw
<07200> (8799)

that she had conceived
<02029> (8804)_,

I was despised
<07043> (8799)

in her eyes
<05869>_:

the LORD
<03068>

judge
<08199> (8799)

between me and thee.

16:6

But Abram
<087>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Sarai
<08297>_,

Behold, thy maid
<08198>

[is] in thy hand
<03027>_;

do
<06213> (8798)

to her as it pleaseth thee
<02896> <05869>_.

And when Sarai
<08297>

dealt hardly with
<06031> (8762)

her, she fled
<01272> (8799)

from her face
<06440>_.

{as...: Heb. that which is good in thine eyes} {dealt...: Heb. afflicted her}

16:7

And the angel
<04397>

of the LORD
<03068>

found her
<04672> (8799)

by a fountain
<05869>

of water
<04325>

in the wilderness
<04057>_,

by the fountain
<05869>

in the way
<01870>

to Shur
<07793>_.

16:8

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Hagar
<01904>_,

Sarai's
<08297>

maid
<08198>_,

whence
<0335>

camest thou
<0935> (8804)_?

and whither wilt thou go
<03212> (8799)_?

And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

I flee
<01272> (8802)

from the face
<06440>

of my mistress
<01404>

Sarai
<08297>_.

16:9

And the angel
<04397>

of the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, Return
<07725> (8798)

to thy mistress
<01404>_,

and submit
<06031> (8690)

thyself under her hands
<03027>_.

16:10

And the angel
<04397>

of the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, I will multiply
<07235> (8686)

thy seed
<02233>

exceedingly
<07235> (8687)_,

that it shall not be numbered
<05608> (8735)

for multitude
<07230>_.

16:11

And the angel
<04397>

of the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, Behold
<02009>_,

thou [art] with child
<02030>_,

and shalt bear
<03205> (8802)

a son
<01121>_,

and shalt call
<07121> (8804)

his name
<08034>

Ishmael
<03458>_;

because the LORD
<03068>

hath heard
<08085> (8804)

thy affliction
<06040>_.

{Ishmael: that is, God shall hear}

16:12

And he will be a wild
<06501>

man
<0120>_;

his hand
<03027>

[will be] against every man, and every man's hand
<03027>

against him; and he shall dwell
<07931> (8799)

in the presence
<06440>

of all his brethren
<0251>_.

16:13

And she called
<07121> (8799)

the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>

that spake
<01696> (8802)

unto her, Thou God
<0410>

seest me
<07210>_:

for she said
<0559> (8804)_,

Have I also here
<01988>

looked
<07200> (8804)

after him
<0310>

that seeth me
<07210>_?

16:14

Wherefore the well
<0875>

was called
<07121> (8804)

Beerlahairoi
<0883> <02416>_;

behold, [it is] between Kadesh
<06946>

and Bered
<01260>_.

{Beerlahairoi: that is, The well of him that liveth and seeth me}

16:15

And Hagar
<01904>

bare
<03205> (8799)

Abram
<087>

a son
<01121>_:

and Abram
<087>

called
<07121> (8799)

his son's
<01121>

name
<08034>_,

which Hagar
<01904>

bare
<03205> (8804)_,

Ishmael
<03458>_.

16:16

And Abram
<087>

[was] fourscore
<08084> <08141>

and six
<08337>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>_,

when Hagar
<01904>

bare
<03205> (8800)

Ishmael
<03458>

to Abram
<087>_.

17:1

And when Abram
<087>

was ninety
<08673> <08141>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

and nine
<08672>_,

the LORD
<03068>

appeared
<07200> (8735)

to Abram
<087>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, I [am] the Almighty
<07706>

God
<0410>_;

walk
<01980> (8690)

before me
<06440>_,

and be thou perfect
<08549>_.

{perfect: or, upright, or, sincere}

17:2

And I will make
<05414> (8799)

my covenant
<01285>

between me and thee, and will multiply
<07235> (8686)

thee exceedingly
<03966> <03966>_.

17:3

And Abram
<087>

fell
<05307> (8799)

on his face
<06440>_:

and God
<0430>

talked
<01696> (8762)

with him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

17:4

As for me
<0589>_,

behold, my covenant
<01285>

[is] with thee, and thou shalt be a father
<01>

of many
<01995>

nations
<01471>_.

{many...: Heb. multitude of nations}

17:5

Neither shall thy name
<08034>

any more be called
<07121> (8735)

Abram
<087>_,

but thy name
<08034>

shall be Abraham
<085>_;

for a father
<01>

of many
<01995>

nations
<01471>

have I made thee
<05414> (8804)_.

{Abraham: that is, Father of a great multitude}

17:6

And I will make
<06509> (0)

thee exceeding
<03966> <03966>

fruitful
<06509> (8689)_,

and I will make
<05414> (8804)

nations
<01471>

of thee, and kings
<04428>

shall come out
<03318> (8799)

of thee.

17:7

And I will establish
<06965> (8689)

my covenant
<01285>

between me and thee and thy seed
<02233>

after thee
<0310>

in their generations
<01755>

for an everlasting
<05769>

covenant
<01285>_,

to be a God
<0430>

unto thee, and to thy seed
<02233>

after thee
<0310>_.

17:8

And I will give
<05414> (8804)

unto thee, and to thy seed
<02233>

after thee
<0310>_,

the land
<0776>

wherein thou art a stranger
<04033>_,

all the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>_,

for an everlasting
<05769>

possession
<0272>_;

and I will be their God
<0430>_.

{wherein...: Heb. of thy sojournings}

17:9

And God
<0430>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Abraham
<085>_,

Thou shalt keep
<08104> (8799)

my covenant
<01285>

therefore, thou, and thy seed
<02233>

after thee
<0310>

in their generations
<01755>_.

17:10

This [is] my covenant
<01285>_,

which ye shall keep
<08104> (8799)_,

between me and you and thy seed
<02233>

after thee
<0310>_;

Every man child
<02145>

among you shall be circumcised
<04135> (8736)_.

17:11

And ye shall circumcise
<05243> (8804)

the flesh
<01320>

of your foreskin
<06190>_;

and it shall be a token
<0226>

of the covenant
<01285>

betwixt me and you.

17:12

And he that is eight
<08083>

days
<03117>

old
<01121>

shall be circumcised
<04135> (8735)

among you, every man child
<02145>

in your generations
<01755>_,

he that is born
<03211>

in the house
<01004>_,

or bought
<04736>

with money
<03701>

of any stranger
<01121> <05236>_,

which [is] not of thy seed
<02233>_.

{he that is eight...: Heb. a son of eight days}

17:13

He that is born
<03211>

in thy house
<01004>_,

and he that is bought
<04736>

with thy money
<03701>_,

must needs
<04135> (8736)

be circumcised
<04135> (8735)_:

and my covenant
<01285>

shall be in your flesh
<01320>

for an everlasting
<05769>

covenant
<01285>_.

17:14

And the uncircumcised
<06189>

man child
<02145>

whose
<0834>

flesh
<01320>

of his foreskin
<06190>

is not circumcised
<04135> (8735)_,

that soul
<05315>

shall be cut off
<03772> (8738)

from his people
<05971>_;

he hath broken
<06565> (8689)

my covenant
<01285>_.

17:15

And God
<0430>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Abraham
<085>_,

As for Sarai
<08297>

thy wife
<0802>_,

thou shalt not call
<07121> (8799)

her name
<08034>

Sarai
<08297>_,

but
<03588>

Sarah
<08283>

[shall] her name
<08034>

[be]. {Sarah: that is Princess}

17:16

And I will bless
<01288> (8765)

her, and give
<05414> (8804)

thee a son
<01121>

also of her: yea, I will bless
<01288> (8765)

her, and she shall be [a mother] of nations
<01471>_;

kings
<04428>

of people
<05971>

shall be of her. {she...: Heb. she shall become nations}

17:17

Then Abraham
<085>

fell
<05307> (8799)

upon his face
<06440>_,

and laughed
<06711> (8799)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

in his heart
<03820>_,

Shall [a child] be born
<03205> (8735)

unto him that is an hundred
<03967>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>_?

and shall Sarah
<08283>_,

that is ninety
<08673>

years
<08141>

old
<01323>_,

bear
<03205> (8799)_?

17:18

And Abraham
<085>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto God
<0430>_,

O that
<03863>

Ishmael
<03458>

might live
<02421> (8799)

before thee
<06440>_!

17:19

And God
<0430>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Sarah
<08283>

thy wife
<0802>

shall bear
<03205> (8802)

thee a son
<01121>

indeed
<061>_;

and thou shalt call
<07121> (8804)

his name
<08034>

Isaac
<03327>_:

and I will establish
<06965> (8689)

my covenant
<01285>

with him for an everlasting
<05769>

covenant
<01285>_,

[and] with his seed
<02233>

after him
<0310>_.

17:20

And as for Ishmael
<03458>_,

I have heard thee
<08085> (8804)_:

Behold, I have blessed
<01288> (8765)

him, and will make him fruitful
<06509> (8689)_,

and will multiply
<07235> (8689)

him exceedingly
<03966> <03966>_;

twelve
<06240> <08147>

princes
<05387>

shall he beget
<03205> (8686)_,

and I will make him
<05414> (8804)

a great
<01419>

nation
<01471>_.

17:21

But my covenant
<01285>

will I establish
<06965> (8686)

with Isaac
<03327>_,

which Sarah
<08283>

shall bear
<03205> (8799)

unto thee at this set time
<04150>

in the next
<0312>

year
<08141>_.

17:22

And he left off
<03615> (8762)

talking
<01696> (8763)

with him, and God
<0430>

went up
<05927> (8799)

from Abraham
<085>_.

17:23

And Abraham
<085>

took
<03947> (8799)

Ishmael
<03458>

his son
<01121>_,

and all that were born
<03211>

in his house
<01004>_,

and all that were bought
<04736>

with his money
<03701>_,

every male
<02145>

among the men
<0582>

of Abraham's
<085>

house
<01004>_;

and circumcised
<04135> (8799)

the flesh
<01320>

of their foreskin
<06190>

in the selfsame
<06106>

day
<03117>_,

as God
<0430>

had said
<01696> (8765)

unto him.

17:24

And Abraham
<085>

[was] ninety
<08673>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

and nine
<08672>_,

when he was circumcised
<04135> (8736)

in the flesh
<01320>

of his foreskin
<06190>_.

17:25

And Ishmael
<03458>

his son
<01121>

[was] thirteen
<06240> <07969>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>_,

when he was circumcised
<04135> (8736)

in the flesh
<01320>

of his foreskin
<06190>_.

17:26

In the selfsame
<06106>

day
<03117>

was Abraham
<085>

circumcised
<04135> (8738)_,

and Ishmael
<03458>

his son
<01121>_.

17:27

And all the men
<0582>

of his house
<01004>_,

born
<03211>

in the house
<01004>_,

and bought
<04736>

with money
<03701>

of the stranger
<01121> <05236>_,

were circumcised
<04135> (8738)

with him.

18:1

And the LORD
<03068>

appeared
<07200> (8735)

unto him in the plains
<0436>

of Mamre
<04471>_:

and he sat
<03427> (8802)

in the tent
<0168>

door
<06607>

in the heat
<02527>

of the day
<03117>_;

{plain: Heb. plains}

18:2

And he lift up
<05375> (8799)

his eyes
<05869>

and looked
<07200> (8799)_,

and, lo, three
<07969>

men
<0582>

stood
<05324> (8737)

by him: and when he saw
<07200> (8799)

[them], he ran
<07323> (8799)

to meet
<07125> (8800)

them from the tent
<0168>

door
<06607>_,

and bowed
<07812> (8691)

himself toward the ground
<0776>_,

18:3

And said
<0559> (8799)_,

My Lord
<0136>_,

if now I have found
<04672> (8804)

favour
<02580>

in thy sight
<05869>_,

pass not away
<05674> (8799)_,

I pray thee, from thy servant
<05650>_:

18:4

Let a little
<04592>

water
<04325>_,

I pray you
<04994>_,

be fetched
<03947> (8714)_,

and wash
<07364> (8798)

your feet
<07272>_,

and rest yourselves
<08172> (8734)

under the tree
<06086>_:

18:5

And I will fetch
<03947> (8799)

a morsel
<06595>

of bread
<03899>_,

and comfort ye
<05582> (8798)

your hearts
<03820>_;

after that
<0310>

ye shall pass on
<05674> (8799)_:

for therefore are ye come
<05674> (8804)

to
<05921>

your servant
<05650>_.

And they said
<01696> (8765)_,

So do
<06213> (8799)_,

as thou hast said
<0559> (8799)_.

{comfort: Heb. stay} {are...: Heb. you have passed}

18:6

And Abraham
<085>

hastened
<04116> (8762)

into the tent
<0168>

unto Sarah
<08283>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Make ready quickly
<04116> (8761)

three
<07969>

measures
<05429>

of fine
<05560>

meal
<07058>_,

knead
<03888> (8798)

[it], and make
<06213> (0)

cakes
<05692>

upon the hearth
<06213> (8798)_.

{Make ready...: Heb. Hasten}

18:7

And Abraham
<085>

ran
<07323> (8804)

unto the herd
<01241>_,

and fetcht
<03947> (8799)

a calf
<01121> <01241>

tender
<07390>

and good
<02896>_,

and gave
<05414> (8799)

[it] unto a young man
<05288>_;

and he hasted
<04116> (8762)

to dress
<06213> (8800)

it.

18:8

And he took
<03947> (8799)

butter
<02529>_,

and milk
<02461>_,

and the calf
<01121> <01241>

which he had dressed
<06213> (8804)_,

and set
<05414> (8799)

[it] before them
<06440>_;

and he stood
<05975> (8802)

by them under the tree
<06086>_,

and they did eat
<0398> (8799)_.

18:9

And they said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Where
<0346>

[is] Sarah
<08283>

thy wife
<0802>_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, in the tent
<0168>_.

18:10

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will certainly
<07725> (8800)

return
<07725> (8799)

unto thee according to the time
<06256>

of life
<02416>_;

and, lo, Sarah
<08283>

thy wife
<0802>

shall have a son
<01121>_.

And Sarah
<08283>

heard
<08085> (8802)

[it] in the tent
<0168>

door
<06607>_,

which [was] behind him
<0310>_.

18:11

Now Abraham
<085>

and Sarah
<08283>

[were] old
<02205>

[and] well stricken
<0935> (8802)

in age
<03117>_;

[and] it ceased
<02308> (8804)

to be with Sarah
<08283>

after the manner
<0734>

of women
<0802>_.

18:12

Therefore Sarah
<08283>

laughed
<06711> (8799)

within herself
<07130>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

After
<0310>

I am waxed old
<01086> (8800)

shall I have pleasure
<05730>_,

my lord
<0113>

being old also
<02204> (8804)_?

18:13

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Abraham
<085>_,

Wherefore
<04100>

did Sarah
<08283>

laugh
<06711> (8804)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Shall I of a surety
<0552>

bear
<03205> (8799)

a child, which
<0589>

am old
<02204> (8804)_?

18:14

Is
<06381> (0)

any thing
<01697>

too hard
<06381> (8735)

for the LORD
<03068>_?

At the time appointed
<04150>

I will return
<07725> (8799)

unto thee, according to the time
<06256>

of life
<02416>_,

and Sarah
<08283>

shall have a son
<01121>_.

18:15

Then Sarah
<08283>

denied
<03584> (8762)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

I laughed
<06711> (8804)

not; for she was afraid
<03372> (8804)_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Nay
<03808>_;

but thou didst laugh
<06711> (8804)_.

18:16

And the men
<0582>

rose up
<06965> (8799)

from thence, and looked
<08259> (8686)

toward
<06440>

Sodom
<05467>_:

and Abraham
<085>

went
<01980> (8802)

with them to bring them on the way
<07971> (8763)_.

18:17

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8804)_,

Shall I hide
<03680> (8764)

from Abraham
<085>

that thing which
<0834>

I do
<06213> (8802)_;

18:18

Seeing that Abraham
<085>

shall surely become a great
<01419>

and mighty
<06099>

nation
<01471>_,

and all the nations
<01471>

of the earth
<0776>

shall be blessed
<01288> (8738)

in him?

18:19

For I know
<03045> (8804)

him, that
<0834>

he will command
<06680> (8762)

his children
<01121>

and his household
<01004>

after him
<0310>_,

and they shall keep
<08104> (8804)

the way
<01870>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

to do
<06213> (8800)

justice
<06666>

and judgment
<04941>_;

that the LORD
<03068>

may bring
<0935> (8687)

upon Abraham
<085>

that which he hath spoken
<01696> (8765)

of him.

18:20

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Because the cry
<02201>

of Sodom
<05467>

and Gomorrah
<06017>

is great
<07227>_,

and because their sin
<02403>

is very
<03966>

grievous
<03513> (8804)_;

18:21

I will go down
<03381> (8799)

now, and see
<07200> (8799)

whether they have done
<06213> (8804)

altogether
<03617>

according to the cry
<06818>

of it, which is come
<0935> (8802)

unto me; and if not, I will know
<03045> (8799)_.

18:22

And the men
<0582>

turned their faces
<06437> (8799)

from thence, and went
<03212> (8799)

toward Sodom
<05467>_:

but Abraham
<085>

stood
<05975> (8802)

yet
<05750>

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_.

18:23

And Abraham
<085>

drew near
<05066> (8799)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Wilt thou also destroy
<05595> (8799)

the righteous
<06662>

with
<05973>

the wicked
<07563>_?

18:24

Peradventure there be
<03426>

fifty
<02572>

righteous
<06662>

within
<08432>

the city
<05892>_:

wilt thou also destroy
<05595> (8799)

and not spare
<05375> (8799)

the place
<04725>

for
<04616>

the fifty
<02572>

righteous
<06662>

that [are] therein
<07130>_?

18:25

That be far
<02486>

from thee to do
<06213> (8800)

after this manner
<01697>_,

to slay
<04191> (8687)

the righteous
<06662>

with the wicked
<07563>_:

and that the righteous
<06662>

should be as the wicked
<07563>_,

that be far
<02486>

from thee: Shall not the Judge
<08199> (8802)

of all the earth
<0776>

do
<06213> (8799)

right
<04941>_?

18:26

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

If I find
<04672> (8799)

in Sodom
<05467>

fifty
<02572>

righteous
<06662>

within
<08432>

the city
<05892>_,

then I will spare
<05375> (8804)

all the place
<04725>

for their sakes.

18:27

And Abraham
<085>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold now, I have taken upon me
<02974> (8689)

to speak
<01696> (8763)

unto the Lord
<0136>_,

which
<0595>

[am but] dust
<06083>

and ashes
<0665>_:

18:28

Peradventure there shall lack
<02637> (8799)

five
<02568>

of the fifty
<02572>

righteous
<06662>_:

wilt thou destroy
<07843> (8686)

all the city
<05892>

for [lack of] five
<02568>_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

If I find
<04672> (8799)

there forty
<0705>

and five
<02568>_,

I will not destroy
<07843> (8686)

[it].

18:29

And he spake
<01696> (8763)

unto him yet again
<03254> (8686)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Peradventure there shall be forty
<0705>

found
<04672> (8735)

there. And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will not do
<06213> (8799)

[it] for forty's
<0705>

sake.

18:30

And he said
<0559> (8799)

[unto him], Oh
<04994>

let not the Lord
<0136>

be angry
<02734> (8799)_,

and I will speak
<01696> (8762)_:

Peradventure there shall thirty
<07970>

be found
<04672> (8735)

there. And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will not do
<06213> (8799)

[it], if I find
<04672> (8799)

thirty
<07970>

there.

18:31

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold now, I have taken upon me
<02974> (8689)

to speak
<01696> (8763)

unto the Lord
<0136>_:

Peradventure there shall be twenty
<06242>

found
<04672> (8735)

there. And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will not destroy
<07843> (8686)

[it] for twenty's
<06242>

sake.

18:32

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Oh let not the Lord
<0136>

be angry
<02734> (8799)_,

and I will speak
<01696> (8762)

yet
<0389>

but this once
<06471>_:

Peradventure ten
<06235>

shall be found
<04672> (8735)

there. And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will not destroy
<07843> (8686)

[it] for ten's
<06235>

sake.

18:33

And the LORD
<03068>

went his way
<03212> (8799)_,

as soon as
<0834>

he had left
<03615> (8765)

communing
<01696> (8763)

with Abraham
<085>_:

and Abraham
<085>

returned
<07725> (8804)

unto his place
<04725>_.

Genesis 21:1--22:24

21:1

And the LORD
<03068>

visited
<06485> (8804)

Sarah
<08283>

as he had said
<0559> (8804)_,

and the LORD
<03068>

did
<06213> (8799)

unto Sarah
<08283>

as he had spoken
<01696> (8765)_.

21:2

For Sarah
<08283>

conceived
<02029> (8799)_,

and bare
<03205> (8799)

Abraham
<085>

a son
<01121>

in his old age
<02208>_,

at the set time
<04150>

of which God
<0430>

had spoken
<01696> (8765)

to him.

21:3

And Abraham
<085>

called
<07121> (8799)

the name
<08034>

of his son
<01121>

that was born
<03205> (8737)

unto him, whom Sarah
<08283>

bare
<03205> (8804)

to him, Isaac
<03327>_.

21:4

And Abraham
<085>

circumcised
<04135> (8799)

his son
<01121>

Isaac
<03327>

being eight
<08083>

days
<03117>

old
<01121>_,

as God
<0430>

had commanded
<06680> (8765)

him.

21:5

And Abraham
<085>

was an hundred
<03967>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>_,

when his son
<01121>

Isaac
<03327>

was born
<03205> (8736)

unto him.

21:6

And Sarah
<08283>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

God
<0430>

hath made
<06213> (8804)

me to laugh
<06712>_,

[so that] all that hear
<08085> (8802)

will laugh
<06711> (8799)

with me.

21:7

And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

Who would have said
<04448> (8765)

unto Abraham
<085>_,

that Sarah
<08283>

should have given children
<01121>

suck
<03243> (8689)_?

for I have born
<03205> (8804)

[him] a son
<01121>

in his old age
<02208>_.

21:8

And the child
<03206>

grew
<01431> (8799)_,

and was weaned
<01580> (8735)_:

and Abraham
<085>

made
<06213> (8799)

a great
<01419>

feast
<04960>

the [same] day
<03117>

that Isaac
<03327>

was weaned
<01580> (8736)_.

21:9

And Sarah
<08283>

saw
<07200> (8799)

the son
<01121>

of Hagar
<01904>

the Egyptian
<04713>_,

which she had born
<03205> (8804)

unto Abraham
<085>_,

mocking
<06711> (8764)_.

21:10

Wherefore she said
<0559> (8799)

unto Abraham
<085>_,

Cast out
<01644> (8761)

this bondwoman
<0519>

and her son
<01121>_:

for the son
<01121>

of this bondwoman
<0519>

shall not be heir
<03423> (8799)

with my son
<01121>_,

[even] with Isaac
<03327>_.

21:11

And the thing
<01697>

was very
<03966>

grievous
<03415> (8799)

in Abraham's
<085>

sight
<05869>

because
<0182>

of his son
<01121>_.

21:12

And God
<0430>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Abraham
<085>_,

Let it not be grievous
<03415> (8799)

in thy sight
<05869>

because of the lad
<05288>_,

and because of thy bondwoman
<0519>_;

in all that Sarah
<08283>

hath said
<0559> (8799)

unto thee, hearken
<08085> (8798)

unto her voice
<06963>_;

for in Isaac
<03327>

shall thy seed
<02233>

be called
<07121> (8735)_.

21:13

And also of the son
<01121>

of the bondwoman
<0519>

will I make
<07760> (8799)

a nation
<01471>_,

because he [is] thy seed
<02233>_.

21:14

And Abraham
<085>

rose up early
<07925> (8686)

in the morning
<01242>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

bread
<03899>_,

and a bottle
<02573>

of water
<04325>_,

and gave
<05414> (8799)

[it] unto Hagar
<01904>_,

putting
<07760> (8804)

[it] on her shoulder
<07926>_,

and the child
<03206>_,

and sent her away
<07971> (8762)_:

and she departed
<03212> (8799)_,

and wandered
<08582> (8799)

in the wilderness
<04057>

of Beersheba
<0884>_.

21:15

And the water
<04325>

was spent
<03615> (8799)

in
<04480>

the bottle
<02573>_,

and she cast
<07993> (8686)

the child
<03206>

under one
<0259>

of the shrubs
<07880>_.

21:16

And she went
<03212> (8799)_,

and sat her down
<03427> (8799)

over against
<05048>

[him] a good way off
<07368> (8687)_,

as it were a bowshot
<02909> (8764) <07198>_:

for she said
<0559> (8804)_,

Let me not see
<07200> (8799)

the death
<04194>

of the child
<03206>_.

And she sat
<03427> (8799)

over against [him], and lift up
<05375> (8799)

her voice
<06963>_,

and wept
<01058> (8799)_.

21:17

And God
<0430>

heard
<08085> (8804)

the voice
<06963>

of the lad
<05288>_;

and the angel
<04397>

of God
<0430>

called
<07121> (8799)

to Hagar
<01904>

out of heaven
<08064>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar
<01904>_?

fear
<03372> (8799)

not; for God
<0430>

hath heard
<08085> (8799)

the voice
<06963>

of the lad
<05288>

where he [is].

21:18

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

lift up
<05375> (8798)

the lad
<05288>_,

and hold
<02388> (8685)

him in thine hand
<03027>_;

for I will make
<07760> (8799)

him a great
<01419>

nation
<01471>_.

21:19

And God
<0430>

opened
<06491> (8799)

her eyes
<05869>_,

and she saw
<07200> (8799)

a well
<0875>

of water
<04325>_;

and she went
<03212> (8799)_,

and filled
<04390> (8762)

the bottle
<02573>

with water
<04325>_,

and gave
<08248> (0)

the lad
<05288>

drink
<08248> (8686)_.

21:20

And God
<0430>

was with the lad
<05288>_;

and he grew
<01431> (8799)_,

and dwelt
<03427> (8799)

in the wilderness
<04057>_,

and became an archer
<07235> (8802) <07199>_.

21:21

And he dwelt
<03427> (8799)

in the wilderness
<04057>

of Paran
<06290>_:

and his mother
<0517>

took
<03947> (8799)

him a wife
<0802>

out of the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

21:22

And it came to pass at that time
<06256>_,

that Abimelech
<040>

and Phichol
<06369>

the chief captain
<08269>

of his host
<06635>

spake
<0559> (8799)

unto Abraham
<085>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

God
<0430>

[is] with thee in all that thou doest
<06213> (8802)_:

21:23

Now therefore swear
<07650> (8734)

unto me here
<02008>

by God
<0430>

that thou wilt not deal falsely
<08266> (8799)

with me, nor with my son
<05209>_,

nor with my son's son
<05220>_:

[but] according to the kindness
<02617>

that I have done
<06213> (8804)

unto thee, thou shalt do
<06213> (8799)

unto me, and to the land
<0776>

wherein thou hast sojourned
<01481> (8804)_.

{that thou...: Heb. if thou shalt lie unto me}

21:24

And Abraham
<085>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will swear
<07650> (8735)_.

21:25

And Abraham
<085>

reproved
<03198> (8689)

Abimelech
<040>

because
<0182>

of a well
<0875>

of water
<04325>_,

which Abimelech's
<040>

servants
<05650>

had violently taken away
<01497> (8804)_.

21:26

And Abimelech
<040>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

I wot
<03045> (8804)

not who hath done
<06213> (8804)

this thing
<01697>_:

neither
<03808>

didst thou tell
<05046> (8689)

me, neither
<03808>

yet heard
<08085> (8804)

I [of it], but
<01115>

to day
<03117>_.

21:27

And Abraham
<085>

took
<03947> (8799)

sheep
<06629>

and oxen
<01241>_,

and gave
<05414> (8799)

them unto Abimelech
<040>_;

and both of them
<08147>

made
<03772> (8799)

a covenant
<01285>_.

21:28

And Abraham
<085>

set
<05324> (8686)

seven
<07651>

ewe lambs
<03535>

of the flock
<06629>

by themselves.

21:29

And Abimelech
<040>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Abraham
<085>_,

What
<02008>

[mean] these seven
<07651>

ewe lambs
<03535>

which thou hast set
<05324> (8689)

by themselves?

21:30

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

For [these] seven
<07651>

ewe lambs
<03535>

shalt thou take
<03947> (8799)

of my hand
<03027>_,

that
<05668>

they may be a witness
<05713>

unto me, that I have digged
<02658> (8804)

this well
<0875>_.

21:31

Wherefore he called
<07121> (8804)

that place
<04725>

Beersheba
<0884>_;

because there they sware
<07650> (8738)

both of them
<08147>_.

{Beersheba: that is, The well of the oath}

21:32

Thus they made
<03772> (8799)

a covenant
<01285>

at Beersheba
<0884>_:

then Abimelech
<040>

rose up
<06965> (8799)_,

and Phichol
<06369>

the chief captain
<08269>

of his host
<06635>_,

and they returned
<07725> (8799)

into the land
<0776>

of the Philistines
<06430>_.

21:33

And [Abraham] planted
<05193> (8799)

a grove
<0815>

in Beersheba
<0884>_,

and called
<07121> (8799)

there on the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

the everlasting
<05769>

God
<0410>_.

{grove: or, tree}

21:34

And Abraham
<085>

sojourned
<01481> (8799)

in the Philistines
<06430>_'

land
<0776>

many
<07227>

days
<03117>_.

22:1

And it came to pass after
<0310>

these things
<01697>_,

that God
<0430>

did tempt
<05254> (8765)

Abraham
<085>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Abraham
<085>_:

and he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, [here] I [am]. {Behold...: Heb. Behold me}

22:2

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Take now
<03947> (8798)

thy son
<01121>_,

thine only
<03173>

[son] Isaac
<03327>_,

whom thou lovest
<0157> (8804)_,

and get thee
<03212> (8798)

into the land
<0776>

of Moriah
<04179>_;

and offer him
<05927> (8685)

there for a burnt offering
<05930>

upon one
<0259>

of the mountains
<02022>

which I will tell
<0559> (8799)

thee of.

22:3

And Abraham
<085>

rose up early
<07925> (8686)

in the morning
<01242>_,

and saddled
<02280> (8799)

his ass
<02543>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

two
<08147>

of his young men
<05288>

with him, and Isaac
<03327>

his son
<01121>_,

and clave
<01234> (8762)

the wood
<06086>

for the burnt offering
<05930>_,

and rose up
<06965> (8799)_,

and went
<03212> (8799)

unto the place
<04725>

of which God
<0430>

had told
<0559> (8804)

him.

22:4

Then on the third
<07992>

day
<03117>

Abraham
<085>

lifted up
<05375> (8799)

his eyes
<05869>_,

and saw
<07200> (8799)

the place
<04725>

afar off
<07350>_.

22:5

And Abraham
<085>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto his young men
<05288>_,

Abide
<03427> (8798)

ye here with the ass
<02543>_;

and I and the lad
<05288>

will go
<03212> (8799)

yonder
<03541>

and worship
<07812> (8691)_,

and come again
<07725> (8799)

to you.

22:6

And Abraham
<085>

took
<03947> (8799)

the wood
<06086>

of the burnt offering
<05930>_,

and laid
<07760> (8799)

[it] upon Isaac
<03327>

his son
<01121>_;

and he took
<03947> (8799)

the fire
<0784>

in his hand
<03027>_,

and a knife
<03979>_;

and they went
<03212> (8799)

both
<08147>

of them together
<03162>_.

22:7

And Isaac
<03327>

spake
<0559> (8799)

unto Abraham
<085>

his father
<01>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

My father
<01>_:

and he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Here [am] I, my son
<01121>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold the fire
<0784>

and the wood
<06086>_:

but where [is] the lamb
<07716>

for a burnt offering
<05930>_?

{lamb: or, kid}

22:8

And Abraham
<085>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

My son
<01121>_,

God
<0430>

will provide
<07200> (8799)

himself a lamb
<07716>

for a burnt offering
<05930>_:

so they went
<03212> (8799)

both of them
<08147>

together
<03162>_.

22:9

And they came
<0935> (8799)

to the place
<04725>

which God
<0430>

had told
<0559> (8804)

him of; and Abraham
<085>

built
<01129> (8799)

an altar
<04196>

there, and laid
<06186> (0)

the wood
<06086>

in order
<06186> (8799)_,

and bound
<06123> (8799)

Isaac
<03327>

his son
<01121>_,

and laid
<07760> (8799)

him on the altar
<04196>

upon
<04605>

the wood
<06086>_.

22:10

And Abraham
<085>

stretched forth
<07971> (8799)

his hand
<03027>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

the knife
<03979>

to slay
<07819> (8800)

his son
<01121>_.

22:11

And the angel
<04397>

of the LORD
<03068>

called
<07121> (8799)

unto him out of heaven
<08064>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Abraham
<085>_,

Abraham
<085>_:

and he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Here [am] I.

22:12

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Lay
<07971> (8799)

not thine hand
<03027>

upon
<0413>

the lad
<05288>_,

neither do thou
<06213> (8799)

any thing
<03972>

unto him: for now
<06258>

I know
<03045> (8804)

that thou fearest
<03373>

God
<0430>_,

seeing thou hast not
<03808>

withheld
<02820> (8804)

thy son
<01121>_,

thine only
<03173>

[son] from me.

22:13

And Abraham
<085>

lifted up
<05375> (8799)

his eyes
<05869>_,

and looked
<07200> (8799)_,

and behold behind
<0310>

[him] a ram
<0352>

caught
<0270> (8737)

in a thicket
<05442>

by his horns
<07161>_:

and Abraham
<085>

went
<03212> (8799)

and took
<03947> (8799)

the ram
<0352>_,

and offered him up
<05927> (8686)

for a burnt offering
<05930>

in the stead
<08478>

of his son
<01121>_.

22:14

And Abraham
<085>

called
<07121> (8799)

the name
<08034>

of that place
<04725>

Jehovahjireh
<03070>_:

as
<0834>

it is said
<0559> (8735)

[to] this day
<03117>_,

In the mount
<02022>

of the LORD
<03068>

it shall be seen
<07200> (8735)_.

{Jehovahjireh: that is, The Lord will see, or, provide}

22:15

And the angel
<04397>

of the LORD
<03068>

called
<07121> (8799)

unto Abraham
<085>

out of heaven
<08064>

the second time
<08145>_,

22:16

And said
<0559> (8799)_,

By myself have I sworn
<07650> (8738)_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

for because
<03282> <0834>

thou hast done
<06213> (8804)

this thing
<01697>_,

and hast not
<03808>

withheld
<02820> (8804)

thy son
<01121>_,

thine only
<03173>

[son]:

22:17

That in blessing
<01288> (8763)

I will bless
<01288> (8762)

thee, and in multiplying
<07235> (8687)

I will multiply
<07235> (8686)

thy seed
<02233>

as the stars
<03556>

of the heaven
<08064>_,

and as the sand
<02344>

which [is] upon the sea
<03220>

shore
<08193>_;

and thy seed
<02233>

shall possess
<03423> (8799)

the gate
<08179>

of his enemies
<0341> (8802)_;

{shore: Heb. lip}

22:18

And in thy seed
<02233>

shall all the nations
<01471>

of the earth
<0776>

be blessed
<01288> (8694)_;

because
<0834> <06118>
