Genesis 20:1--22:24

20:1

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>_.

20:2

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>_.

20:3

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}

20:4

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>_?

20:5

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}

20:6

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.

20:7

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.

20:8

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)_.

20:9

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)_.

20:10

And Abimelech
<040>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Abraham
<085>_,

What
<04100>

sawest thou
<07200> (8804)_,

that thou hast done
<06213> (8804)

this thing
<01697>_?

20:11

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>_.

20:12

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>_.

20:13

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>_.

20:14

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>_.

20:15

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}

20:16

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)_.

20:17

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].

20:18

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>_.

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>

thou hast obeyed
<08085> (8804)

my voice
<06963>_.

22:19

So Abraham
<085>

returned
<07725> (8799)

unto his young men
<05288>_,

and they rose up
<06965> (8799)

and went
<03212> (8799)

together
<03162>

to Beersheba
<0884>_;

and Abraham
<085>

dwelt
<03427> (8799)

at Beersheba
<0884>_.

22:20

And it came to pass after
<0310>

these things
<01697>_,

that it was told
<05046> (8714)

Abraham
<085>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Behold, Milcah
<04435>_,

she hath also born
<03205> (8804)

children
<01121>

unto thy brother
<0251>

Nahor
<05152>_;

22:21

Huz
<05780>

his firstborn
<01060>_,

and Buz
<0938>

his brother
<0251>_,

and Kemuel
<07055>

the father
<01>

of Aram
<0758>_,

22:22

And Chesed
<03777>_,

and Hazo
<02375>_,

and Pildash
<06394>_,

and Jidlaph
<03044>_,

and Bethuel
<01328>_.

22:23

And Bethuel
<01328>

begat
<03205> (8804)

Rebekah
<07259>_:

these eight
<08083>

Milcah
<04435>

did bear
<03205> (8804)

to Nahor
<05152>_,

Abraham's
<085>

brother
<0251>_.

{Rebekah: Gr. Rebecca}

22:24

And his concubine
<06370>_,

whose name
<08034>

[was] Reumah
<07208>_,

she bare
<03205> (8799)

also Tebah
<02875>_,

and Gaham
<01514>_,

and Thahash
<08477>_,

and Maachah
<04601>_.

Genesis 27:1-46

27:1

And it came to pass
<01961> (8799)_,

that when Isaac
<03327>

was old
<02204> (8804)_,

and his eyes
<05869>

were dim
<03543> (8799)_,

so that he could not see
<07200> (8800)_,

he called
<07121> (8799)

Esau
<06215>

his eldest
<01419>

son
<01121>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, My son
<01121>_:

and he said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Behold, [here am] I.

27:2

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold now, I am old
<02204> (8804)_,

I know
<03045> (8804)

not the day
<03117>

of my death
<04194>_:

27:3

Now therefore take
<05375> (8798)_,

I pray thee, thy weapons
<03627>_,

thy quiver
<08522>

and thy bow
<07198>_,

and go out
<03318> (8798)

to the field
<07704>_,

and take
<06679> (8798)

me [some] venison
<06718> (8675) <06720>_;

{take: Heb. hunt}

27:4

And make
<06213> (8798)

me savoury meat
<04303>_,

such as
<0834>

I love
<0157> (8804)_,

and bring
<0935> (8685)

[it] to me, that I may eat
<0398> (8799)_;

that my soul
<05315>

may bless
<01288> (8762)

thee before
<02962>

I die
<04191> (8799)_.

27:5

And Rebekah
<07259>

heard
<08085> (8802)

when Isaac
<03327>

spake
<01696> (8763)

to Esau
<06215>

his son
<01121>_.

And Esau
<06215>

went
<03212> (8799)

to the field
<07704>

to hunt
<06679> (8800)

[for] venison
<06718>_,

[and] to bring
<0935> (8687)

[it].

27:6

And Rebekah
<07259>

spake
<0559> (8804)

unto Jacob
<03290>

her son
<01121>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Behold, I heard
<08085> (8804)

thy father
<01>

speak
<01696> (8764)

unto Esau
<06215>

thy brother
<0251>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

27:7

Bring
<0935> (8685)

me venison
<06718>_,

and make
<06213> (8798)

me savoury meat
<04303>_,

that I may eat
<0398> (8799)_,

and bless
<01288> (8762)

thee before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>

before
<06440>

my death
<04194>_.

27:8

Now therefore, my son
<01121>_,

obey
<08085> (8798)

my voice
<06963>

according to that which
<0834>

I command
<06680> (8764)

thee.

27:9

Go
<03212> (8798)

now to the flock
<06629>_,

and fetch
<03947> (8798)

me from thence two
<08147>

good
<02896>

kids
<01423>

of the goats
<05795>_;

and I will make
<06213> (8799)

them savoury meat
<04303>

for thy father
<01>_,

such as he loveth
<0157> (8804)_:

27:10

And thou shalt bring
<0935> (8689)

[it] to thy father
<01>_,

that he may eat
<0398> (8804)_,

and that
<0834>

he may bless
<01288> (8762)

thee before
<06440>

his death
<04194>_.

27:11

And Jacob
<03290>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Rebekah
<07259>

his mother
<0517>_,

Behold, Esau
<06215>

my brother
<0251>

[is] a hairy
<08163>

man
<0376>_,

and I [am] a smooth
<02509>

man
<0376>_:

27:12

My father
<01>

peradventure will feel
<04959> (8799)

me, and I shall seem
<05869>

to him as a deceiver
<08591> (8772)_;

and I shall bring
<0935> (8689)

a curse
<07045>

upon me, and not a blessing
<01293>_.

27:13

And his mother
<0517>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Upon me [be] thy curse
<07045>_,

my son
<01121>_:

only obey
<08085> (8798)

my voice
<06963>_,

and go
<03212> (8798)

fetch
<03947> (8798)

me [them].

27:14

And he went
<03212> (8799)_,

and fetched
<03947> (8799)_,

and brought
<0935> (8686)

[them] to his mother
<0517>_:

and his mother
<0517>

made
<06213> (8799)

savoury meat
<04303>_,

such as his father
<01>

loved
<0157> (8804)_.

27:15

And Rebekah
<07259>

took
<03947> (8799)

goodly
<02532>

raiment
<0899>

of her eldest
<01419>

son
<01121>

Esau
<06215>_,

which [were] with her in the house
<01004>_,

and put them upon
<03847> (8686)

Jacob
<03290>

her younger
<06996>

son
<01121>_:

{goodly: Heb. desirable}

27:16

And she put
<03847> (8689)

the skins
<05785>

of the kids
<01423>

of the goats
<05795>

upon his hands
<03027>_,

and upon the smooth
<02513>

of his neck
<06677>_:

27:17

And she gave
<05414> (8799)

the savoury meat
<04303>

and the bread
<03899>_,

which she had prepared
<06213> (8804)_,

into the hand
<03027>

of her son
<01121>

Jacob
<03290>_.

27:18

And he came
<0935> (8799)

unto his father
<01>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

My father
<01>_:

and he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Here [am] I; who [art] thou, my son
<01121>_?

27:19

And Jacob
<03290>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto his father
<01>_,

I [am] Esau
<06215>

thy firstborn
<01060>_;

I have done
<06213> (8804)

according as thou badest
<01696> (8765)

me: arise
<06965> (8798)_,

I pray thee, sit
<03427> (8798)

and eat
<0398> (8798)

of my venison
<06718>_,

that thy soul
<05315>

may bless
<01288> (8762)

me.

27:20

And Isaac
<03327>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto his son
<01121>_,

How [is it] that thou hast found
<04672> (8800)

[it] so quickly
<04116> (8765)_,

my son
<01121>_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Because the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

brought
<07136> (8689)

[it] to me
<06440>_.

{to me: Heb. before me}

27:21

And Isaac
<03327>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jacob
<03290>_,

Come near
<05066> (8798)_,

I pray thee, that I may feel
<04184> (8799)

thee, my son
<01121>_,

whether thou [be] my very
<02088>

son
<01121>

Esau
<06215>

or not.

27:22

And Jacob
<03290>

went near
<05066> (8799)

unto Isaac
<03327>

his father
<01>_;

and he felt
<04959> (8799)

him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,

The voice
<06963>

[is] Jacob's
<03290>

voice
<06963>_,

but the hands
<03027>

[are] the hands
<03027>

of Esau
<06215>_.

27:23

And he discerned
<05234> (8689)

him not, because his hands
<03027>

were hairy
<08163>_,

as his brother
<0251>

Esau's
<06215>

hands
<03027>_:

so he blessed
<01288> (8762)

him.

27:24

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

[Art] thou my very son
<01121>

Esau
<06215>_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I [am].

27:25

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Bring [it] near
<05066> (8685)

to me, and I will eat
<0398> (8799)

of my son's
<01121>

venison
<06718>_,

that my soul
<05315>

may bless
<01288> (8762)

thee. And he brought [it] near
<05066> (8686)

to him, and he did eat
<0398> (8799)_:

and he brought
<0935> (8686)

him wine
<03196>_,

and he drank
<08354> (8799)_.

27:26

And his father
<01>

Isaac
<03327>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Come near
<05066> (8798)

now, and kiss
<05401> (8798)

me, my son
<01121>_.

27:27

And he came near
<05066> (8799)_,

and kissed
<05401> (8799)

him: and he smelled
<07306> (8686)

the smell
<07381>

of his raiment
<0899>_,

and blessed
<01288> (8762)

him, and said
<0559> (8799)_,

See
<07200> (8798)_,

the smell
<07381>

of my son
<01121>

[is] as the smell
<07381>

of a field
<07704>

which the LORD
<03068>

hath blessed
<01288> (8765)_:

27:28

Therefore God
<0430>

give
<05414> (8799)

thee of the dew
<02919>

of heaven
<08064>_,

and the fatness
<04924>

of the earth
<0776>_,

and plenty
<07230>

of corn
<01715>

and wine
<08492>_:

27:29

Let people
<05971>

serve
<05647> (8799)

thee, and nations
<03816>

bow down
<07812> (8691)

to thee: be
<01933> (8798)

lord
<01376>

over thy brethren
<0251>_,

and let thy mother's
<0517>

sons
<01121>

bow down
<07812> (8691)

to thee: cursed
<0779> (8803)

[be] every one that curseth
<0779> (8802)

thee, and blessed
<01288> (8803)

[be] he that blesseth
<01288> (8764)

thee.

27:30

And it came to pass, as soon as Isaac
<03327>

had made an end
<03615> (8765)

of blessing
<01288> (8763)

Jacob
<03290>_,

and Jacob
<03290>

was yet
<0389>

scarce
<03318> (8800)

gone out
<03318> (8804)

from the presence
<06440>

of Isaac
<03327>

his father
<01>_,

that Esau
<06215>

his brother
<0251>

came in
<0935> (8804)

from his hunting
<06718>_.

27:31

And he also had made
<06213> (8799)

savoury meat
<04303>_,

and brought it
<0935> (8686)

unto his father
<01>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto his father
<01>_,

Let my father
<01>

arise
<06965> (8799)_,

and eat
<0398> (8799)

of his son's
<01121>

venison
<06718>_,

that thy soul
<05315>

may bless
<01288> (8762)

me.

27:32

And Isaac
<03327>

his father
<01>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Who [art] thou? And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I [am] thy son
<01121>_,

thy firstborn
<01060>

Esau
<06215>_.

27:33

And Isaac
<03327>

trembled
<02729> (8799)

very
<01419>

exceedingly
<03966> <02731>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Who? where
<0645>

[is] he that hath taken
<06679> (8801)

venison
<06718>_,

and brought
<0935> (8686)

[it] me, and I have eaten
<0398> (8799)

of all before thou camest
<0935> (8799)_,

and have blessed
<01288> (8762)

him? yea, [and] he shall be blessed
<01288> (8803)_.

{trembled...: Heb. trembled with a great trembling greatly} {taken: Heb. hunted}

27:34

And when Esau
<06215>

heard
<08085> (8800)

the words
<01697>

of his father
<01>_,

he cried
<06817> (8799)

with a great
<01419>

and exceeding
<03966>

bitter
<04751>

cry
<06818>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto his father
<01>_,

Bless
<01288> (8761)

me, [even] me also, O my father
<01>_.

27:35

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thy brother
<0251>

came
<0935> (8804)

with subtilty
<04820>_,

and hath taken away
<03947> (8799)

thy blessing
<01293>_.

27:36

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Is not he rightly
<03588>

named
<07121> (8804) <08034>

Jacob
<03290>_?

for he hath supplanted me
<06117> (8799)

these
<02088>

two times
<06471>_:

he took away
<03947> (8804)

my birthright
<01062>_;

and, behold, now he hath taken away
<03947> (8804)

my blessing
<01293>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Hast thou not reserved
<0680> (8804)

a blessing
<01293>

for me? {Jacob: that is, A supplanter}

27:37

And Isaac
<03327>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto Esau
<06215>_,

Behold, I have made
<07760> (8804)

him thy lord
<01376>_,

and all his brethren
<0251>

have I given
<05414> (8804)

to him for servants
<05650>_;

and with corn
<01715>

and wine
<08492>

have I sustained
<05564> (8804)

him: and what shall I do
<06213> (8799)

now
<0645>

unto thee, my son
<01121>_?

{sustained: or, supported}

27:38

And Esau
<06215>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto his father
<01>_,

Hast thou but one
<0259>

blessing
<01293>_,

my father
<01>_?

bless
<01288> (8761)

me, [even] me also, O my father
<01>_.

And Esau
<06215>

lifted up
<05375> (8799)

his voice
<06963>_,

and wept
<01058> (8799)_.

27:39

And Isaac
<03327>

his father
<01>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Behold, thy dwelling
<04186>

shall be the fatness
<04924>

of the earth
<0776>_,

and of the dew
<02919>

of heaven
<08064>

from above
<05920>_;

{the fatness: or, of the fatness}

27:40

And by thy sword
<02719>

shalt thou live
<02421> (8799)_,

and shalt serve
<05647> (8799)

thy brother
<0251>_;

and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion
<07300> (8686)_,

that thou shalt break
<06561> (8804)

his yoke
<05923>

from off thy neck
<06677>_.

27:41

And Esau
<06215>

hated
<07852> (8799)

Jacob
<03290>

because
<05921>

of the blessing
<01293>

wherewith
<0834>

his father
<01>

blessed him
<01288> (8765)_:

and Esau
<06215>

said
<0559> (8799)

in his heart
<03820>_,

The days
<03117>

of mourning
<060>

for my father
<01>

are at hand
<07126> (8799)_;

then will I slay
<02026> (8799)

my brother
<0251>

Jacob
<03290>_.

27:42

And these words
<01697>

of Esau
<06215>

her elder
<01419>

son
<01121>

were told
<05046> (8714)

to Rebekah
<07259>_:

and she sent
<07971> (8799)

and called
<07121> (8799)

Jacob
<03290>

her younger
<06996>

son
<01121>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Behold, thy brother
<0251>

Esau
<06215>_,

as touching thee, doth comfort
<05162> (8693)

himself, [purposing] to kill
<02026> (8800)

thee.

27:43

Now therefore, my son
<01121>_,

obey
<08085> (8798)

my voice
<06963>_;

and arise
<06965> (8798)_,

flee
<01272> (8798)

thou to Laban
<03837>

my brother
<0251>

to Haran
<02771>_;

27:44

And tarry
<03427> (8804)

with him a few
<0259>

days
<03117>_,

until
<0834>

thy brother's
<0251>

fury
<02534>

turn away
<07725> (8799)_;

27:45

Until thy brother's
<0251>

anger
<0639>

turn away
<07725> (8800)

from thee, and he forget
<07911> (8804)

[that] which thou hast done
<06213> (8804)

to him: then I will send
<07971> (8804)_,

and fetch
<03947> (8804)

thee from thence: why
<04100>

should I be deprived
<07921> (8799)

also of you both
<08147>

in one
<0259>

day
<03117>_?

27:46

And Rebekah
<07259>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Isaac
<03327>_,

I am weary
<06973> (8804)

of my life
<02416>

because
<06440>

of the daughters
<01323>

of Heth
<02845>_:

if Jacob
<03290>

take
<03947> (8802)

a wife
<0802>

of the daughters
<01323>

of Heth
<02845>_,

such as these [which are] of the daughters
<01323>

of the land
<0776>_,

what good
<04100>

shall my life
<02416>

do me?
