Genesis 17:1--20:18

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}
And I will make
<05414> (8799)
my covenant
<01285>
between me and thee, and will multiply
<07235> (8686)
thee exceedingly
<03966> <03966>_.
And Abram
<087>
fell
<05307> (8799)
on his face
<06440>_:
and God
<0430>
talked
<01696> (8762)
with him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
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}
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}
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.
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>_.
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}
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>_.
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)_.
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.
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}
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>_.
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>_.
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}
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}
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)_?
And Abraham
<085>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto God
<0430>_,
O that
<03863>
Ishmael
<03458>
might live
<02421> (8799)
before thee
<06440>_!
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
And he left off
<03615> (8762)
talking
<01696> (8763)
with him, and God
<0430>
went up
<05927> (8799)
from Abraham
<085>_.
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.
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>_.
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>_.
In the selfsame
<06106>
day
<03117>
was Abraham
<085>
circumcised
<04135> (8738)_,
and Ishmael
<03458>
his son
<01121>_.
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.
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}
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>_,
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>_:
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>_:
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}
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}
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.
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)_.
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
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)_?
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)_?
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>_.
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)_.
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)_.
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8804)_,
Shall I hide
<03680> (8764)
from Abraham
<085>
that thing which
<0834>
I do
<06213> (8802)_;
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?
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.
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)_;
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)_.
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>_.
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>_?
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>_?
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>_?
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.
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>_:
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].
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.
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.
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.
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.
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>_.
And there came
<0935> (8799)
two
<08147>
angels
<04397>
to Sodom
<05467>
at even
<06153>_;
and Lot
<03876>
sat
<03427> (8802)
in the gate
<08179>
of Sodom
<05467>_:
and Lot
<03876>
seeing
<07200> (8799)
[them] rose up
<06965> (8799)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
them; and he bowed
<07812> (8691)
himself with his face
<0639>
toward the ground
<0776>_;
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Behold now, my lords
<0113>_,
turn in
<05493> (8798)_,
I pray you, into your servant's
<05650>
house
<01004>_,
and tarry all night
<03885> (8798)_,
and wash
<07364> (8798)
your feet
<07272>_,
and ye shall rise up early
<07925> (8689)_,
and go
<01980> (8804)
on your ways
<01870>_.
And they said
<0559> (8799)_,
Nay; but we will abide
<03885> (0)
in the street
<07339>
all night
<03885> (8799)_.
And he pressed
<06484> (8799)
upon them greatly
<03966>_;
and they turned in
<05493> (8799)
unto him, and entered
<0935> (8799)
into his house
<01004>_;
and he made
<06213> (8799)
them a feast
<04960>_,
and did bake
<0644> (8804)
unleavened bread
<04682>_,
and they did eat
<0398> (8799)_.
But before they lay down
<07901> (8799)_,
the men
<0582>
of the city
<05892>_,
[even] the men
<0582>
of Sodom
<05467>_,
compassed
<05437> (0)
the house
<01004>
round
<05437> (8738)_,
both old
<02205>
and young
<05288>_,
all the people
<05971>
from every quarter
<07097>_:
And they called
<07121> (8799)
unto Lot
<03876>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Where [are] the men
<0582>
which came in
<0935> (8804)
to thee this night
<03915>_?
bring them out
<03318> (8685)
unto us, that we may know
<03045> (8799)
them.
And Lot
<03876>
went out
<03318> (8799)
at the door
<06607>
unto them, and shut
<05462> (8804)
the door
<01817>
after him
<0310>_,
And said
<0559> (8799)_,
I pray you, brethren
<0251>_,
do not so wickedly
<07489> (8686)_.
Behold now, I have two
<08147>
daughters
<01323>
which have not known
<03045> (8804)
man
<0376>_;
let me, I pray you, bring them out
<03318> (8686)
unto you, and do
<06213> (8798)
ye to them as [is] good
<02896>
in your eyes
<05869>_:
only unto these
<0411>
men
<0582>
do
<06213> (8799)
nothing
<0408> <01697>_;
for therefore came
<0935> (8804)
they under the shadow
<06738>
of my roof
<06982>_.
And they said
<0559> (8799)_,
Stand
<05066> (8798)
back
<01973>_.
And they said
<0559> (8799)
[again], This one
<0259>
[fellow] came in
<0935> (8804)
to sojourn
<01481> (8800)_,
and he will needs
<08199> (8800)
be a judge
<08199> (8799)_:
now will we deal worse
<07489> (8686)
with thee, than with them. And they pressed
<06484> (8799)
sore
<03966>
upon the man
<0376>_,
[even] Lot
<03876>_,
and came near
<05066> (8799)
to break
<07665> (8800)
the door
<01817>_.
But the men
<0582>
put forth
<07971> (8799)
their hand
<03027>_,
and pulled
<0935> (8686)
Lot
<03876>
into the house
<01004>
to them, and shut
<05462> (8804)
to the door
<01817>_.
And they smote
<05221> (8689)
the men
<0582>
that [were] at the door
<06607>
of the house
<01004>
with blindness
<05575>_,
both small
<06996>
and great
<01419>_:
so that they wearied
<03811> (8799)
themselves to find
<04672> (8800)
the door
<06607>_.
And the men
<0582>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Lot
<03876>_,
Hast thou here
<06311>
any
<04310>
besides? son in law
<02860>_,
and thy sons
<01121>_,
and thy daughters
<01323>_,
and whatsoever
<0834>
thou hast in the city
<05892>_,
bring [them] out
<03318> (8685)
of this place
<04725>_:
For we
<0587>
will destroy
<07843> (8688) <0853>
this place
<04725>_,
because the cry of them
<06818>
is waxen great
<01431> (8804)
before
<0854>
the face
<06440>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
and the LORD
<03068>
hath sent
<07971> (8762)
us to destroy
<07843> (8763)
it.
And Lot
<03876>
went out
<03318> (8799)_,
and spake
<01696> (8762)
unto his sons in law
<02860>_,
which married
<03947> (8802)
his daughters
<01323>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Up
<06965> (8798)_,
get you out
<03318> (8798)
of this place
<04725>_;
for the LORD
<03068>
will destroy
<07843> (8688)
this city
<05892>_.
But he seemed as one that mocked
<06711> (8764)
unto
<05869>
his sons in law
<02860>_.
And when
<03644>
the morning
<07837>
arose
<05927> (8804)_,
then the angels
<04397>
hastened
<0213> (8686)
Lot
<03876>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Arise
<06965> (8798)_,
take
<03947> (8798)
thy wife
<0802>_,
and thy two
<08147>
daughters
<01323>_,
which are here
<04672> (8737)_;
lest thou be consumed
<05595> (8735)
in the iniquity
<05771>
of the city
<05892>_.
{are here: Heb. are found} {iniquity: or, punishment}
And while he lingered
<04102> (8698)_,
the men
<0582>
laid hold
<02388> (8686)
upon his hand
<03027>_,
and upon the hand
<03027>
of his wife
<0802>_,
and upon the hand
<03027>
of his two
<08147>
daughters
<01323>_;
the LORD
<03068>
being merciful
<02551>
unto him: and they brought him forth
<03318> (8686)_,
and set him
<03240> (8686)
without
<02351>
the city
<05892>_.
And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth
<03318> (8687)
abroad
<02351>_,
that he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Escape
<04422> (8734)
for
<05921>
thy life
<05315>_;
look
<05027> (8686)
not behind thee
<0310>_,
neither stay
<05975> (8799)
thou in all the plain
<03603>_;
escape
<04422> (8734)
to the mountain
<02022>_,
lest thou be consumed
<05595> (8735)_.
And Lot
<03876>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Oh, not so, my Lord
<0113>_:
Behold now, thy servant
<05650>
hath found
<04672> (8804)
grace
<02580>
in thy sight
<05869>_,
and thou hast magnified
<01431> (8686)
thy mercy
<02617>_,
which thou hast shewed
<06213> (8804)
unto me
<05978>
in saving
<02421> (8687)
my life
<05315>_;
and I cannot
<03201> (8799)
escape
<04422> (8736)
to the mountain
<02022>_,
lest some evil
<07451>
take
<01692> (8799)
me, and I die
<04191> (8804)_:
Behold now, this city
<05892>
[is] near
<07138>
to flee
<05127> (8800)
unto, and it
<01931>
[is] a little one
<04705>_:
Oh, let me escape
<04422> (8735)
thither, ([is] it not a little one
<04705>?)
and my soul
<05315>
shall live
<02421> (8799)_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, See
<02009>_,
I have accepted
<05375> (8804)
thee
<06440>
concerning this thing
<01697>
also, that I will not overthrow
<02015> (8800)
this city
<05892>_,
for the which
<0834>
thou hast spoken
<01696> (8765)_.
{thee: Heb. thy face}
Haste
<04116> (8761)
thee, escape
<04422> (8734)
thither; for I cannot
<03201> (8799)
do
<06213> (8800)
any thing
<01697>
till thou be come
<0935> (8800)
thither. Therefore the name
<08034>
of the city
<05892>
was called
<07121> (8804)
Zoar
<06820>_.
{Zoar: that is, Little}
The sun
<08121>
was risen
<03318> (8804)
upon the earth
<0776>
when Lot
<03876>
entered
<0935> (8804)
into Zoar
<06820>_.
{risen: Heb. gone forth}
Then the LORD
<03068>
rained
<04305> (8689)
upon Sodom
<05467>
and upon Gomorrah
<06017>
brimstone
<01614>
and fire
<0784>
from the LORD
<03068>
out of heaven
<08064>_;
And he overthrew
<02015> (8799)
those
<0411>
cities
<05892>_,
and all the plain
<03603>_,
and all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the cities
<05892>_,
and that which grew
<06780>
upon the ground
<0127>_.
But his wife
<0802>
looked back
<05027> (8686)
from behind him
<0310>_,
and she became a pillar
<05333>
of salt
<04417>_.
And Abraham
<085>
gat up early
<07925> (8686)
in the morning
<01242>
to the place
<04725>
where he stood
<05975> (8804)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_:
And he looked
<08259> (8686)
toward
<06440>
Sodom
<05467>
and Gomorrah
<06017>_,
and toward
<06440>
all the land
<0776>
of the plain
<03603>_,
and beheld
<07200> (8799)_,
and, lo, the smoke
<07008>
of the country
<0776>
went up
<05927> (8804)
as the smoke
<07008>
of a furnace
<03536>_.
And it came to pass, when God
<0430>
destroyed
<07843> (8763)
the cities
<05892>
of the plain
<03603>_,
that God
<0430>
remembered
<02142> (8799)
Abraham
<085>_,
and sent
<07971> (8762)
Lot
<03876>
out of the midst
<08432>
of the overthrow
<02018>_,
when he overthrew
<02015> (8800)
the cities
<05892>
in the which
<02004>
Lot
<03876>
dwelt
<03427> (8804)_.
And Lot
<03876>
went up
<05927> (8799)
out of Zoar
<06820>_,
and dwelt
<03427> (8799)
in the mountain
<02022>_,
and his two
<08147>
daughters
<01323>
with him; for he feared
<03372> (8804)
to dwell
<03427> (8800)
in Zoar
<06820>_:
and he dwelt
<03427> (8799)
in a cave
<04631>_,
he and his two
<08147>
daughters
<01323>_.
And the firstborn
<01067>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the younger
<06810>_,
Our father
<01>
[is] old
<02204> (8804)_,
and [there is] not a man
<0376>
in the earth
<0776>
to come in
<0935> (8800)
unto us after the manner
<01870>
of all the earth
<0776>_:
Come
<03212> (8798)_,
let us make
<08248> (0)
our father
<01>
drink
<08248> (8686)
wine
<03196>_,
and we will lie
<07901> (8799)
with him, that we may preserve
<02421> (8762)
seed
<02233>
of our father
<01>_.
And they made
<08248> (0)
their father
<01>
drink
<08248> (8686)
wine
<03196>
that night
<03915>_:
and the firstborn
<01067>
went in
<0935> (8799)_,
and lay
<07901> (8799)
with her father
<01>_;
and he perceived
<03045> (8804)
not when she lay down
<07901> (8800)_,
nor when she arose
<06965> (8800)_.
And it came to pass on the morrow
<04283>_,
that the firstborn
<01067>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the younger
<06810>_,
Behold, I lay
<07901> (8804)
yesternight
<0570>
with my father
<01>_:
let us make him drink
<08248> (8686)
wine
<03196>
this night
<03915>
also; and go thou in
<0935> (8798)_,
[and] lie
<07901> (8798)
with him, that we may preserve
<02421> (8762)
seed
<02233>
of our father
<01>_.
And they made
<08248> (0)
their father
<01>
drink
<08248> (8686)
wine
<03196>
that
<01931>
night
<03915>
also: and the younger
<06810>
arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and lay
<07901> (8799)
with him; and he perceived
<03045> (8804)
not when she lay down
<07901> (8800)_,
nor when she arose
<06965> (8800)_.
Thus were both
<08147>
the daughters
<01323>
of Lot
<03876>
with child
<02029> (8799)
by their father
<01>_.
And the firstborn
<01067>
bare
<03205> (8799)
a son
<01121>_,
and called
<07121> (8799)
his name
<08034>
Moab
<04124>_:
the same
<01931>
[is] the father
<01>
of the Moabites
<04124>
unto this day
<03117>_.
And the younger
<06810>_,
she also bare
<03205> (8804)
a son
<01121>_,
and called
<07121> (8799)
his name
<08034>
Benammi
<01151>_:
the same [is] the father
<01>
of the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
unto this day
<03117>_.
And Abraham
<085>
journeyed
<05265> (8799)
from thence toward the south
<05045>
country
<0776>_,
and dwelled
<03427> (8799)
between Kadesh
<06946>
and Shur
<07793>_,
and sojourned
<01481> (8799)
in Gerar
<01642>_.
And Abraham
<085>
said
<0559> (8799)
of
<0413>
Sarah
<08283>
his wife
<0802>_,
She [is] my sister
<0269>_:
and Abimelech
<040>
king
<04428>
of Gerar
<01642>
sent
<07971> (8799)_,
and took
<03947> (8799)
Sarah
<08283>_.
But God
<0430>
came
<0935> (8799)
to Abimelech
<040>
in a dream
<02472>
by night
<03915>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
to him, Behold, thou [art but] a dead man
<04191> (8801)_,
for the woman
<0802>
which thou hast taken
<03947> (8804)_;
for she [is] a man's
<01167>
wife
<01166> (8803)_.
{a man's...: Heb. married to an husband}
But Abimelech
<040>
had not come near
<07126> (8804)
her: and he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Lord
<0136>_,
wilt thou slay
<02026> (8799)
also a righteous
<06662>
nation
<01471>_?
Said
<0559> (8804)
he not unto me, She
<01931>
[is] my sister
<0269>_?
and she
<01931>_,
even
<01571>
she
<01931>
herself said
<0559> (8804)_,
He [is] my brother
<0251>_:
in the integrity
<08537>
of my heart
<03824>
and innocency
<05356>
of my hands
<03709>
have I done
<06213> (8804)
this. {integrity: or, simplicity, or, sincerity}
And God
<0430>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him in a dream
<02472>_,
Yea
<01571>_,
I know
<03045> (8804)
that thou didst
<06213> (8804)
this in the integrity
<08537>
of thy heart
<03824>_;
for I also withheld
<02820> (8799)
thee from sinning
<02398> (8800)
against me: therefore suffered
<05414> (8804)
I thee not to touch
<05060> (8800)
her.
Now therefore restore
<07725> (8685)
the man
<0376>
[his] wife
<0802>_;
for he [is] a prophet
<05030>_,
and he shall pray
<06419> (8691)
for thee
<01157>_,
and thou shalt live
<02421> (8798)_:
and if thou restore
<07725> (8688)
[her] not, know
<03045> (8798)
thou that thou shalt surely
<04191> (8800)
die
<04191> (8799)_,
thou, and all that [are] thine.
Therefore Abimelech
<040>
rose early
<07925> (8686)
in the morning
<01242>_,
and called
<07121> (8799)
all his servants
<05650>_,
and told
<01696> (8762)
all these things
<01697>
in their ears
<0241>_:
and the men
<0582>
were sore
<03966>
afraid
<03372> (8799)_.
Then Abimelech
<040>
called
<07121> (8799)
Abraham
<085>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, What hast thou done
<06213> (8804)
unto us? and what have I offended
<02398> (8804)
thee, that thou hast brought
<0935> (8689)
on me and on my kingdom
<04467>
a great
<01419>
sin
<02401>_?
thou hast done
<06213> (8804)
deeds
<04639>
unto me that ought not to be done
<06213> (8735)_.
And Abimelech
<040>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Abraham
<085>_,
What
<04100>
sawest thou
<07200> (8804)_,
that thou hast done
<06213> (8804)
this thing
<01697>_?
And Abraham
<085>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Because I thought
<0559> (8804)_,
Surely
<07535>
the fear
<03374>
of God
<0430>
[is] not in this place
<04725>_;
and they will slay me
<02026> (8804)
for my wife's
<0802>
sake
<01697>_.
And yet indeed
<0546>
[she is] my sister
<0269>_;
she [is] the daughter
<01323>
of my father
<01>_,
but not the daughter
<01323>
of my mother
<0517>_;
and she became my wife
<0802>_.
And it came to pass, when God
<0430>
caused me to wander
<08582> (8689)
from my father's
<01>
house
<01004>_,
that I said
<0559> (8799)
unto her, This [is] thy kindness
<02617>
which thou shalt shew
<06213> (8799)
unto me; at every place
<04725>
whither we shall come
<0935> (8799)_,
say
<0559> (8798)
of me, He [is] my brother
<0251>_.
And Abimelech
<040>
took
<03947> (8799)
sheep
<06629>_,
and oxen
<01241>_,
and menservants
<05650>_,
and womenservants
<08198>_,
and gave
<05414> (8799)
[them] unto Abraham
<085>_,
and restored
<07725> (8686)
him Sarah
<08283>
his wife
<0802>_.
And Abimelech
<040>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Behold, my land
<0776>
[is] before thee
<06440>_:
dwell
<03427> (8798)
where it pleaseth
<02896> <05869>
thee. {where...: Heb. as is good in thine eyes}
And unto Sarah
<08283>
he said
<0559> (8804)_,
Behold, I have given
<05414> (8804)
thy brother
<0251>
a thousand
<0505>
[pieces] of silver
<03701>_:
behold, he [is] to thee a covering
<03682>
of the eyes
<05869>_,
unto all that [are] with thee, and with all [other]: thus she was reproved
<03198> (8737)_.
So Abraham
<085>
prayed
<06419> (8691)
unto God
<0430>_:
and God
<0430>
healed
<07495> (8799)
Abimelech
<040>_,
and his wife
<0802>_,
and his maidservants
<0519>_;
and they bare
<03205> (8799)
[children].
For the LORD
<03068>
had fast
<06113> (8800)
closed up
<06113> (8804)
all the wombs
<07358>
of the house
<01004>
of Abimelech
<040>_,
because
<01697>
of Sarah
<08283>
Abraham's
<085>
wife
<0802>_.

Proverbs 22:29

Seest
<02372> (8804)
thou a man
<0376>
diligent
<04106>
in his business
<04399>_?
he shall stand
<03320> (8691)
before
<06440>
kings
<04428>_;
he shall not stand
<03320> (8691)
before
<06440>
mean
<02823>
[men]. {mean...: Heb. obscure men}
