Genesis 20:1--26:35

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>_.

23:1

And Sarah
<08283>

was an hundred
<03967> <08141>

and seven
<07651> <08141>

and twenty
<06242>

years
<08141>

old
<02416>_:

[these were] the years
<08141>

of the life
<02416>

of Sarah
<08283>_.

23:2

And Sarah
<08283>

died
<04191> (8799)

in Kirjatharba
<07153>_;

the same [is] Hebron
<02275>

in the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>_:

and Abraham
<085>

came
<0935> (8799)

to mourn
<05594> (8800)

for Sarah
<08283>_,

and to weep
<01058> (8800)

for her.

23:3

And Abraham
<085>

stood up
<06965> (8799)

from before
<06440>

his dead
<04191> (8801)_,

and spake
<01696> (8762)

unto the sons
<01121>

of Heth
<02845>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

23:4

I [am] a stranger
<01616>

and a sojourner
<08453>

with you: give
<05414> (8798)

me a possession
<0272>

of a buryingplace
<06913>

with you, that I may bury
<06912> (8799)

my dead
<04191> (8801)

out of my sight
<06440>_.

23:5

And the children
<01121>

of Heth
<02845>

answered
<06030> (8799)

Abraham
<085>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)

unto him,

23:6

Hear us
<08085> (8798)_,

my lord
<0113>_:

thou [art] a mighty
<0430>

prince
<05387>

among us
<08432>_:

in the choice
<04005>

of our sepulchres
<06913>

bury
<06912> (8798)

thy dead
<04191> (8801)_;

none
<03808> <0376>

of us shall withhold
<03607> (8799)

from thee his sepulchre
<06913>_,

but that thou mayest bury
<06912> (8800)

thy dead
<04191> (8801)_.

{a mighty...: Heb. a prince of God}

23:7

And Abraham
<085>

stood up
<06965> (8799)_,

and bowed
<07812> (8691)

himself to the people
<05971>

of the land
<0776>_,

[even] to the children
<01121>

of Heth
<02845>_.

23:8

And he communed
<01696> (8762)

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

If it be
<03426>

your mind
<05315>

that I should bury
<06912> (8800)

my dead
<04191> (8801)

out of my sight
<06440>_;

hear
<08085> (8798)

me, and intreat
<06293> (8798)

for me to Ephron
<06085>

the son
<01121>

of Zohar
<06714>_,

23:9

That he may give
<05414> (8799)

me the cave
<04631>

of Machpelah
<04375>_,

which he hath, which [is] in the end
<07097>

of his field
<07704>_;

for as much
<04392> (0)

money
<03701>

as it is worth
<04392>

he shall give it
<05414> (8799)

me for a possession
<0272>

of a buryingplace
<06913>

amongst you
<08432>_.

{as much...: Heb. full money}

23:10

And Ephron
<06085>

dwelt
<03427> (8802)

among
<08432>

the children
<01121>

of Heth
<02845>_:

and Ephron
<06085>

the Hittite
<02850>

answered
<06030> (8799)

Abraham
<085>

in the audience
<0241>

of the children
<01121>

of Heth
<02845>_,

[even] of all that went in
<0935> (8802)

at the gate
<08179>

of his city
<05892>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

{audience: Heb. ears}

23:11

Nay
<03808>_,

my lord
<0113>_,

hear me
<08085> (8798)_:

the field
<07704>

give I
<05414> (8804)

thee, and the cave
<04631>

that [is] therein, I give it
<05414> (8804)

thee; in the presence
<05869>

of the sons
<01121>

of my people
<05971>

give
<05414> (8804)

I it thee: bury
<06912> (8798)

thy dead
<04191> (8801)_.

23:12

And Abraham
<085>

bowed down
<07812> (8691)

himself before
<06440>

the people
<05971>

of the land
<0776>_.

23:13

And he spake
<01696> (8762)

unto Ephron
<06085>

in the audience
<0241>

of the people
<05971>

of the land
<0776>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

But if thou [wilt give it], I pray thee
<03863>_,

hear
<08085> (8798)

me: I will give
<05414> (8804)

thee money
<03701>

for the field
<07704>_;

take
<03947> (8798)

[it] of me, and I will bury
<06912> (8799)

my dead
<04191> (8801)

there.

23:14

And Ephron
<06085>

answered
<06030> (8799)

Abraham
<085>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)

unto him,

23:15

My lord
<0113>_,

hearken
<08085> (8798)

unto me: the land
<0776>

[is worth] four
<0702>

hundred
<03967>

shekels
<08255>

of silver
<03701>_;

what [is] that betwixt
<0996>

me and thee? bury
<06912> (8798)

therefore thy dead
<04191> (8801)_.

23:16

And Abraham
<085>

hearkened
<08085> (8799)

unto Ephron
<06085>_;

and Abraham
<085>

weighed
<08254> (8799)

to Ephron
<06085>

the silver
<03701>_,

which he had named
<01696> (8765)

in the audience
<0241>

of the sons
<01121>

of Heth
<02845>_,

four
<0702>

hundred
<03967>

shekels
<08255>

of silver
<03701>_,

current
<05674> (8802)

[money] with the merchant
<05503> (8802)_.

23:17

And the field
<07704>

of Ephron
<06085>_,

which [was] in Machpelah
<04375>_,

which [was] before
<06440>

Mamre
<04471>_,

the field
<07704>_,

and the cave
<04631>

which [was] therein, and all the trees
<06086>

that [were] in the field
<07704>_,

that [were] in all the borders
<01366>

round about
<05439>_,

were made sure
<06965> (8799)

23:18

Unto Abraham
<085>

for a possession
<04736>

in the presence
<05869>

of the children
<01121>

of Heth
<02845>_,

before all that went in
<0935> (8802)

at the gate
<08179>

of his city
<05892>_.

23:19

And after
<0310>

this
<03651>_,

Abraham
<085>

buried
<06912> (8804)

Sarah
<08283>

his wife
<0802>

in the cave
<04631>

of the field
<07704>

of Machpelah
<04375>

before
<06440>

Mamre
<04471>_:

the same [is] Hebron
<02275>

in the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>_.

23:20

And the field
<07704>_,

and the cave
<04631>

that [is] therein, were made sure
<06965> (8799)

unto Abraham
<085>

for a possession
<0272>

of a buryingplace
<06913>

by the sons
<01121>

of Heth
<02845>_.

24:1

And Abraham
<085>

was old
<02204> (8804)_,

[and] well stricken
<0935> (8804)

in age
<03117>_:

and the LORD
<03068>

had blessed
<01288> (8765)

Abraham
<085>

in all things. {well...: Heb. gone into days}

24:2

And Abraham
<085>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto his eldest
<02205>

servant
<05650>

of his house
<01004>_,

that ruled over
<04910> (8802)

all that he had, Put
<07760> (8798)_,

I pray thee, thy hand
<03027>

under my thigh
<03409>_:

24:3

And I will make thee swear
<07650> (8686)

by the LORD
<03068>_,

the God
<0430>

of heaven
<08064>_,

and the God
<0430>

of the earth
<0776>_,

that thou shalt not take
<03947> (8799)

a wife
<0802>

unto my son
<01121>

of the daughters
<01323>

of the Canaanites
<03669>_,

among
<07130>

whom I dwell
<03427> (8802)_:

24:4

But thou shalt go
<03212> (8799)

unto my country
<0776>_,

and to my kindred
<04138>_,

and take
<03947> (8804)

a wife
<0802>

unto my son
<01121>

Isaac
<03327>_.

24:5

And the servant
<05650>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Peradventure the woman
<0802>

will not be willing
<014> (8799)

to follow
<03212> (8800)

me
<0310>

unto this land
<0776>_:

must I needs bring
<07725> (8687)

thy son
<01121>

again
<07725> (8686)

unto the land
<0776>

from whence thou camest
<03318> (8804)_?

24:6

And Abraham
<085>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Beware
<08104> (8734)

thou that thou bring
<07725> (0)

not
<06435>

my son
<01121>

thither again
<07725> (8686)_.

24:7

The LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of heaven
<08064>_,

which took me
<03947> (8804)

from my father's
<01>

house
<01004>_,

and from the land
<0776>

of my kindred
<04138>_,

and which spake
<01696> (8765)

unto me, and that sware
<07650> (8738)

unto me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Unto thy seed
<02233>

will I give
<05414> (8799)

this land
<0776>_;

he shall send
<07971> (8799)

his angel
<04397>

before thee
<06440>_,

and thou shalt take
<03947> (8804)

a wife
<0802>

unto my son
<01121>

from thence.

24:8

And if the woman
<0802>

will not be willing
<014> (8799)

to follow
<03212> (8800)

thee
<0310>_,

then thou shalt be clear
<05352> (8738)

from this my oath
<07621>_:

only bring
<07725> (0)

not my son
<01121>

thither again
<07725> (8686)_.

24:9

And the servant
<05650>

put
<07760> (8799)

his hand
<03027>

under the thigh
<03409>

of Abraham
<085>

his master
<0113>_,

and sware
<07650> (8735)

to him concerning
<05921>

that
<02088>

matter
<01697>_.

24:10

And the servant
<05650>

took
<03947> (8799)

ten
<06235>

camels
<01581>

of the camels
<01581>

of his master
<0113>_,

and departed
<03212> (8799)_;

for all the goods
<02898>

of his master
<0113>

[were] in his hand
<03027>_:

and he arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and went
<03212> (8799)

to Mesopotamia
<0763>_,

unto the city
<05892>

of Nahor
<05152>_.

{for: or, and}

24:11

And he made
<01288> (0)

his camels
<01581>

to kneel down
<01288> (8686)

without
<02351>

the city
<05892>

by
<0413>

a well
<0875>

of water
<04325>

at the time
<06256>

of the evening
<06153>_,

[even] the time
<06256>

that women go out
<03318> (8800)

to draw
<07579> (8802)

[water]. {that...: Heb. that women who draw water go forth}

24:12

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

O LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of my master
<0113>

Abraham
<085>_,

I pray thee, send me
<06440>

good speed
<07136> (8685)

this day
<03117>_,

and shew
<06213> (8798)

kindness
<02617>

unto
<05973>

my master
<0113>

Abraham
<085>_.

24:13

Behold, I stand
<05324> (8737)

[here] by the well
<05869>

of water
<04325>_;

and the daughters
<01323>

of the men
<0582>

of the city
<05892>

come out
<03318> (8802)

to draw
<07579> (8800)

water
<04325>_:

24:14

And let it come to pass, that the damsel
<05291>

to whom I shall say
<0559> (8799)_,

Let down
<05186> (8685)

thy pitcher
<03537>_,

I pray thee, that I may drink
<08354> (8799)_;

and she shall say
<0559> (8804)_,

Drink
<08354> (8798)_,

and I will give
<08248> (0)

thy camels
<01581>

drink
<08248> (8686)

also: [let the same be] she [that] thou hast appointed
<03198> (8689)

for thy servant
<05650>

Isaac
<03327>_;

and thereby shall I know
<03045> (8799)

that thou hast shewed
<06213> (8804)

kindness
<02617>

unto my master
<0113>_.

24:15

And it came to pass, before he had done
<03615> (8765)

speaking
<01696> (8763)_,

that, behold, Rebekah
<07259>

came out
<03318> (8802)_,

who
<0834>

was born
<03205> (8795)

to Bethuel
<01328>_,

son
<01121>

of Milcah
<04435>_,

the wife
<0802>

of Nahor
<05152>_,

Abraham's
<085>

brother
<0251>_,

with her pitcher
<03537>

upon her shoulder
<07926>_.

24:16

And the damsel
<05291>

[was] very
<03966>

fair
<02896>

to look upon
<04758>_,

a virgin
<01330>_,

neither had any man
<0376>

known
<03045> (8804)

her: and she went down
<03381> (8799)

to the well
<05869>_,

and filled
<04390> (8762)

her pitcher
<03537>_,

and came up
<05927> (8799)_.

{very...: Heb. good of countenance}

24:17

And the servant
<05650>

ran
<07323> (8799)

to meet her
<07125> (8800)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let me, I pray thee, drink
<01572> (8685)

a little
<04592>

water
<04325>

of thy pitcher
<03537>_.

24:18

And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

Drink
<08354> (8798)_,

my lord
<0113>_:

and she hasted
<04116> (8762)_,

and let down
<03381> (8686)

her pitcher
<03537>

upon her hand
<03027>_,

and gave him drink
<08248> (8686)_.

24:19

And when she had done
<03615> (8762)

giving him drink
<08248> (8687)_,

she said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will draw
<07579> (8799)

[water] for thy camels
<01581>

also, until they have done
<03615> (8765)

drinking
<08354> (8800)_.

24:20

And she hasted
<04116> (8762)_,

and emptied
<06168> (8762)

her pitcher
<03537>

into the trough
<08268>_,

and ran
<07323> (8799)

again unto the well
<0875>

to draw
<07579> (8800)

[water], and drew
<07579> (8799)

for all his camels
<01581>_.

24:21

And the man
<0376>

wondering
<07583> (8693)

at her held his peace
<02790> (8688)_,

to wit
<03045> (8800)

whether the LORD
<03068>

had made
<06743> (0)

his journey
<01870>

prosperous
<06743> (8689)

or
<0518>

not.

24:22

And it came to pass, as the camels
<01581>

had done
<03615> (8765)

drinking
<08354> (8800)_,

that the man
<0376>

took
<03947> (8799)

a golden
<02091>

earring
<05141>

of half a shekel
<01235>

weight
<04948>_,

and two
<08147>

bracelets
<06781>

for her hands
<03027>

of ten
<06235>

[shekels] weight
<04948>

of gold
<02091>_;

{earring: or, jewel for the forehead}

24:23

And said
<0559> (8799)_,

Whose
<04310>

daughter
<01323>

[art] thou
<0859>_?

tell
<05046> (8685)

me, I pray thee: is there
<03426>

room
<04725>

[in] thy father's
<01>

house
<01004>

for us to lodge in
<03885> (8800)_?

24:24

And she said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, I [am] the daughter
<01323>

of Bethuel
<01328>

the son
<01121>

of Milcah
<04435>_,

which she bare
<03205> (8804)

unto Nahor
<05152>_.

24:25

She said
<0559> (8799)

moreover unto him, We have both
<01571>

straw
<08401>

and provender
<04554>

enough
<07227>_,

and
<01571>

room
<04725>

to lodge in
<03885> (8800)_.

24:26

And the man
<0376>

bowed down his head
<06915> (8799)_,

and worshipped
<07812> (8691)

the LORD
<03068>_.

24:27

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Blessed
<01288> (8803)

[be] the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of my master
<0113>

Abraham
<085>_,

who hath not left destitute
<05800> (8804) <05973>

my master
<0113>

of his mercy
<02617>

and his truth
<0571>_:

I [being] in the way
<01870>_,

the LORD
<03068>

led me
<05148> (8804)

to the house
<01004>

of my master's
<0113>

brethren
<0251>_.

24:28

And the damsel
<05291>

ran
<07323> (8799)_,

and told
<05046> (8686)

[them of] her mother's
<0517>

house
<01004>

these things
<01697>_.

24:29

And Rebekah
<07259>

had a brother
<0251>_,

and his name
<08034>

[was] Laban
<03837>_:

and Laban
<03837>

ran
<07323> (8799)

out
<02351>

unto the man
<0376>_,

unto the well
<05869>_.

24:30

And it came to pass, when he saw
<07200> (8800)

the earring
<05141>

and bracelets
<06781>

upon his sister's
<0269>

hands
<03027>_,

and when he heard
<08085> (8800)

the words
<01697>

of Rebekah
<07259>

his sister
<0269>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thus
<03541>

spake
<01696> (8765)

the man
<0376>

unto me; that he came
<0935> (8799)

unto the man
<0376>_;

and, behold, he stood
<05975> (8802)

by
<05921>

the camels
<01581>

at the well
<05869>_.

24:31

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Come in
<0935> (8798)_,

thou blessed
<01288> (8803)

of the LORD
<03068>_;

wherefore standest
<05975> (8799)

thou without
<02351>_?

for I have prepared
<06437> (8765)

the house
<01004>_,

and room
<04725>

for the camels
<01581>_.

24:32

And the man
<0376>

came
<0935> (8799)

into the house
<01004>_:

and he ungirded
<06605> (8762)

his camels
<01581>_,

and gave
<05414> (8799)

straw
<08401>

and provender
<04554>

for the camels
<01581>_,

and water
<04325>

to wash
<07364> (8800)

his feet
<07272>_,

and the men's
<0582>

feet
<07272>

that [were] with him.

24:33

And there was set
<07760> (8714) (8675) <03455> (8799)

[meat] before him
<06440>

to eat
<0398> (8800)_:

but he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will not eat
<0398> (8799)_,

until I have told
<01696> (8765)

mine errand
<01697>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Speak on
<01696> (8761)_.

24:34

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I [am] Abraham's
<085>

servant
<05650>_.

24:35

And the LORD
<03068>

hath blessed
<01288> (8765)

my master
<0113>

greatly
<03966>_;

and he is become great
<01431> (8799)_:

and he hath given
<05414> (8799)

him flocks
<06629>_,

and herds
<01241>_,

and silver
<03701>_,

and gold
<02091>_,

and menservants
<05650>_,

and maidservants
<08198>_,

and camels
<01581>_,

and asses
<02543>_.

24:36

And Sarah
<08283>

my master's
<0113>

wife
<0802>

bare
<03205> (8799)

a son
<01121>

to my master
<0113>

when
<0310>

she was old
<02209>_:

and unto him hath he given
<05414> (8799)

all that he hath.

24:37

And my master
<0113>

made me swear
<07650> (8686)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thou shalt not take
<03947> (8799)

a wife
<0802>

to my son
<01121>

of the daughters
<01323>

of the Canaanites
<03669>_,

in whose land
<0776>

I dwell
<03427> (8802)_:

24:38

But
<0518>

thou shalt go
<03212> (8799)

unto my father's
<01>

house
<01004>_,

and to my kindred
<04940>_,

and take
<03947> (8804)

a wife
<0802>

unto my son
<01121>_.

24:39

And I said
<0559> (8799)

unto my master
<0113>_,

Peradventure the woman
<0802>

will not follow
<03212> (8799) <0310>

me.

24:40

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, The LORD
<03068>_,

before
<06440>

whom I walk
<01980> (8694)_,

will send
<07971> (8799)

his angel
<04397>

with thee, and prosper
<06743> (8689)

thy way
<01870>_;

and thou shalt take
<03947> (8804)

a wife
<0802>

for my son
<01121>

of my kindred
<04940>_,

and of my father's
<01>

house
<01004>_:

24:41

Then shalt thou be clear
<05352> (8735)

from [this] my oath
<0423>_,

when thou comest
<0935> (8799)

to my kindred
<04940>_;

and if they give
<05414> (8799)

not thee [one], thou shalt be clear
<05355>

from my oath
<0423>_.

24:42

And I came
<0935> (8799)

this day
<03117>

unto the well
<05869>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

O LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of my master
<0113>

Abraham
<085>_,

if now thou do
<03426>

prosper
<06743> (8688)

my way
<01870>

which I go
<01980> (8802)_:

24:43

Behold, I stand
<05324> (8737)

by the well
<05869>

of water
<04325>_;

and it shall come to pass, that when the virgin
<05959>

cometh forth
<03318> (8802)

to draw
<07579> (8800)

[water], and I say
<0559> (8804)

to her, Give me
<08248> (0)_,

I pray thee, a little
<04592>

water
<04325>

of thy pitcher
<03537>

to drink
<08248> (8685)_;

24:44

And she say
<0559> (8804)

to me, Both drink
<08354> (8798)

thou, and I will also draw
<07579> (8799)

for thy camels
<01581>_:

[let] the same [be] the woman
<0802>

whom the LORD
<03068>

hath appointed out
<03198> (8689)

for my master's
<0113>

son
<01121>_.

24:45

And before I had done
<03615> (8762)

speaking
<01696> (8763)

in mine heart
<03820>_,

behold, Rebekah
<07259>

came forth
<03318> (8802)

with her pitcher
<03537>

on her shoulder
<07926>_;

and she went down
<03381> (8799)

unto the well
<05869>_,

and drew
<07579> (8799)

[water]: and I said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, Let me drink
<08248> (8685)_,

I pray thee.

24:46

And she made haste
<04116> (8762)_,

and let down
<03381> (8686)

her pitcher
<03537>

from her [shoulder], and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Drink
<08354> (8798)_,

and I will give
<08248> (0)

thy camels
<01581>

drink
<08248> (8686)

also: so I drank
<08354> (8799)_,

and she made
<08248> (0)

the camels
<01581>

drink
<08248> (8689)

also.

24:47

And I asked
<07592> (8799)

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

Whose daughter
<01323>

[art] thou? And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

The daughter
<01323>

of Bethuel
<01328>_,

Nahor's
<05152>

son
<01121>_,

whom Milcah
<04435>

bare
<03205> (8804)

unto him: and I put
<07760> (8799)

the earring
<05141>

upon her face
<0639>_,

and the bracelets
<06781>

upon her hands
<03027>_.

24:48

And I bowed down my head
<06915> (8799)_,

and worshipped
<07812> (8691)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and blessed
<01288> (8762)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of my master
<0113>

Abraham
<085>_,

which had led me
<05148> (8689)

in the right
<0571>

way
<01870>

to take
<03947> (8800)

my master's
<0113>

brother's
<0251>

daughter
<01323>

unto his son
<01121>_.

24:49

And now if ye will
<03426>

deal
<06213> (8802)

kindly
<02617>

and truly
<0571>

with my master
<0113>_,

tell
<05046> (8685)

me: and if not, tell
<05046> (8685)

me; that I may turn
<06437> (8799)

to the right hand
<03225>_,

or
<0176>

to the left
<08040>_.

24:50

Then Laban
<03837>

and Bethuel
<01328>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

The thing
<01697>

proceedeth
<03318> (8804)

from the LORD
<03068>_:

we cannot
<03201> (8799)

speak
<01696> (8763)

unto thee bad
<07451>

or
<0176>

good
<02896>_.

24:51

Behold, Rebekah
<07259>

[is] before thee
<06440>_,

take
<03947> (8798)

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

and let her be thy master's
<0113>

son's
<01121>

wife
<0802>_,

as the LORD
<03068>

hath spoken
<01696> (8765)_.

24:52

And it came to pass, that, when Abraham's
<085>

servant
<05650>

heard
<08085> (8804)

their words
<01697>_,

he worshipped
<07812> (8691)

the LORD
<03068>_,

[bowing himself] to the earth
<0776>_.

24:53

And the servant
<05650>

brought forth
<03318> (8686)

jewels
<03627>

of silver
<03701>_,

and jewels
<03627>

of gold
<02091>_,

and raiment
<0899>_,

and gave
<05414> (8799)

[them] to Rebekah
<07259>_:

he gave
<05414> (8804)

also to her brother
<0251>

and to her mother
<0517>

precious things
<04030>_.

{jewels: Heb. vessels}

24:54

And they did eat
<0398> (8799)

and drink
<08354> (8799)_,

he and the men
<0582>

that [were] with him, and tarried all night
<03885> (8799)_;

and they rose up
<06965> (8799)

in the morning
<01242>_,

and he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Send me away
<07971> (8761)

unto my master
<0113>_.

24:55

And her brother
<0251>

and her mother
<0517>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let the damsel
<05291>

abide
<03427> (8799)

with us [a few] days
<03117>_,

at the least
<0176>

ten
<06218>_;

after
<0310>

that she shall go
<03212> (8799)_.

{a few...: or, a full year, or ten months}

24:56

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Hinder me
<0309> (8762)

not, seeing the LORD
<03068>

hath prospered
<06743> (8689)

my way
<01870>_;

send me away
<07971> (8761)

that I may go
<03212> (8799)

to my master
<0113>_.

24:57

And they said
<0559> (8799)_,

We will call
<07121> (8799)

the damsel
<05291>_,

and enquire
<07592> (8799)

at her mouth
<06310>_.

24:58

And they called
<07121> (8799)

Rebekah
<07259>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, Wilt thou go
<03212> (8799)

with this man
<0376>_?

And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will go
<03212> (8799)_.

24:59

And they sent away
<07971> (8762)

Rebekah
<07259>

their sister
<0269>_,

and her nurse
<03243> (8688)_,

and Abraham's
<085>

servant
<05650>_,

and his men
<0582>_.

24:60

And they blessed
<01288> (8762)

Rebekah
<07259>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, Thou
<0859>

[art] our sister
<0269>_,

be thou
<01961> (8798)

[the mother] of thousands
<0505>

of millions
<07233>_,

and let thy seed
<02233>

possess
<03423> (8799)

the gate
<08179>

of those which hate
<08130> (8802)

them.

24:61

And Rebekah
<07259>

arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and her damsels
<05291>_,

and they rode
<07392> (8799)

upon the camels
<01581>_,

and followed
<03212> (8799) <0310>

the man
<0376>_:

and the servant
<05650>

took
<03947> (8799)

Rebekah
<07259>_,

and went his way
<03212> (8799)_.

24:62

And Isaac
<03327>

came
<0935> (8804)

from the way
<0935> (8800)

of the well Lahairoi
<0883>_;

for he dwelt
<03427> (8802)

in the south
<05045>

country
<0776>_.

24:63

And Isaac
<03327>

went out
<03318> (8799)

to meditate
<07742> (8800)

in the field
<07704>

at
<06437> (8800)

the eventide
<06153>_:

and he lifted up
<05375> (8799)

his eyes
<05869>_,

and saw
<07200> (8799)_,

and, behold, the camels
<01581>

[were] coming
<0935> (8802)_.

{to meditate: or, to pray}

24:64

And Rebekah
<07259>

lifted up
<05375> (8799)

her eyes
<05869>_,

and when she saw
<07200> (8799)

Isaac
<03327>_,

she lighted
<05307> (8799)

off
<05921>

the camel
<01581>_.

24:65

For she [had] said
<0559> (8799)

unto the servant
<05650>_,

What
<04310>

man
<0376>

[is] this
<01976>

that walketh
<01980> (8802)

in the field
<07704>

to meet us
<07125> (8800)_?

And the servant
<05650>

[had] said
<0559> (8799)_,

It [is] my master
<0113>_:

therefore she took
<03947> (8799)

a vail
<06809>_,

and covered herself
<03680> (8691)_.

24:66

And the servant
<05650>

told
<05608> (8762)

Isaac
<03327>

all things
<01697>

that he had done
<06213> (8804)_.

24:67

And Isaac
<03327>

brought her
<0935> (8686)

into his mother
<0517>

Sarah's
<08283>

tent
<0168>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

Rebekah
<07259>_,

and she became his wife
<0802>_;

and he loved
<0157> (8799)

her: and Isaac
<03327>

was comforted
<05162> (8735)

after
<0310>

his mother's
<0517>

[death].

25:1

Then again
<03254> (8686)

Abraham
<085>

took
<03947> (8799)

a wife
<0802>_,

and her name
<08034>

[was] Keturah
<06989>_.

25:2

And she bare
<03205> (8799)

him Zimran
<02175>_,

and Jokshan
<03370>_,

and Medan
<04091>_,

and Midian
<04080>_,

and Ishbak
<03435>_,

and Shuah
<07744>_.

25:3

And Jokshan
<03370>

begat
<03205> (8804)

Sheba
<07614>_,

and Dedan
<01719>_.

And the sons
<01121>

of Dedan
<01719>

were Asshurim
<0805>_,

and Letushim
<03912>_,

and Leummim
<03817>_.

25:4

And the sons
<01121>

of Midian
<04080>_;

Ephah
<05891>_,

and Epher
<06081>_,

and Hanoch
<02585>_,

and Abida
<028>_,

and Eldaah
<0420>_.

All these [were] the children
<01121>

of Keturah
<06989>_.

25:5

And Abraham
<085>

gave
<05414> (8799)

all that he had unto Isaac
<03327>_.

25:6

But unto the sons
<01121>

of the concubines
<06370>_,

which Abraham
<085>

had, Abraham
<085>

gave
<05414> (8804)

gifts
<04979>_,

and sent them away
<07971> (8762)

from Isaac
<03327>

his son
<01121>_,

while he yet lived
<02416>_,

eastward
<06924>_,

unto the east
<06924>

country
<0776>_.

25:7

And these [are] the days
<03117>

of the years
<08141>

of Abraham's
<085>

life
<02416>

which he lived
<02425> (8804)_,

an hundred
<03967> <08141>

threescore and fifteen
<07657> <08141> <02568>

years
<08141>_.

25:8

Then Abraham
<085>

gave up the ghost
<01478> (8799)_,

and died
<04191> (8799)

in a good
<02896>

old age
<07872>_,

an old man
<02205>_,

and full
<07649>

[of years]; and was gathered
<0622> (8735)

to his people
<05971>_.

25:9

And his sons
<01121>

Isaac
<03327>

and Ishmael
<03458>

buried
<06912> (8799)

him in the cave
<04631>

of Machpelah
<04375>_,

in the field
<07704>

of Ephron
<06085>

the son
<01121>

of Zohar
<06714>

the Hittite
<02850>_,

which [is] before
<06440>

Mamre
<04471>_;

25:10

The field
<07704>

which Abraham
<085>

purchased
<07069> (8804)

of the sons
<01121>

of Heth
<02845>_:

there was Abraham
<085>

buried
<06912> (8795)_,

and Sarah
<08283>

his wife
<0802>_.

25:11

And it came to pass after
<0310>

the death
<04194>

of Abraham
<085>_,

that God
<0430>

blessed
<01288> (8762)

his son
<01121>

Isaac
<03327>_;

and Isaac
<03327>

dwelt
<03427> (8799)

by
<05973>

the well Lahairoi
<0883>_.

25:12

Now these [are] the generations
<08435>

of Ishmael
<03458>_,

Abraham's
<085>

son
<01121>_,

whom Hagar
<01904>

the Egyptian
<04713>_,

Sarah's
<08283>

handmaid
<08198>_,

bare
<03205> (8804)

unto Abraham
<085>_:

25:13

And these [are] the names
<08034>

of the sons
<01121>

of Ishmael
<03458>_,

by their names
<08034>_,

according to their generations
<08435>_:

And Mishma

<02316>_,

and Tema
<08485>_,

Jetur
<03195>_,

Naphish
<05305>_,

and Kedemah
<06929>_:

{Hadar: or, Hadad}

25:16

These [are] the sons
<01121>

of Ishmael
<03458>_,

and these [are] their names
<08034>_,

by their towns
<02691>_,

and by their castles
<02918>_;

twelve
<08147> <06240>

princes
<05387>

according to their nations
<0523>_.

25:17

And these [are] the years
<08141>

of the life
<02416>

of Ishmael
<03458>_,

an hundred
<03967> <08141>

and thirty
<07970> <08141>

and seven
<07651>

years
<08141>_:

and he gave up the ghost
<01478> (8799)

and died
<04191> (8799)_;

and was gathered
<0622> (8735)

unto his people
<05971>_.

25:18

And they dwelt
<07931> (8799)

from Havilah
<02341>

unto Shur
<07793>_,

that [is] before
<06440>

Egypt
<04714>_,

as thou goest
<0935> (8800)

toward Assyria
<0804>_:

[and] he died
<05307> (8804)

in the presence
<06440>

of all his brethren
<0251>_.

{died: Heb. fell}

25:19

And these [are] the generations
<08435>

of Isaac
<03327>_,

Abraham's
<085>

son
<01121>_:

Abraham
<085>

begat
<03205> (8689)

Isaac
<03327>_:

25:20

And Isaac
<03327>

was forty
<0705>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

when he took
<03947> (8800)

Rebekah
<07259>

to wife
<0802>_,

the daughter
<01323>

of Bethuel
<01328>

the Syrian
<0761>

of Padanaram
<06307>_,

the sister
<0269>

to Laban
<03837>

the Syrian
<0761>_.

25:21

And Isaac
<03327>

intreated
<06279> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>

for
<05227>

his wife
<0802>_,

because she [was] barren
<06135>_:

and the LORD
<03068>

was intreated
<06279> (8735)

of him, and Rebekah
<07259>

his wife
<0802>

conceived
<02029> (8799)_.

25:22

And the children
<01121>

struggled together
<07533> (8704)

within her
<07130>_;

and she said
<0559> (8799)_,

If [it be] so, why [am] I thus
<02088>_?

And she went
<03212> (8799)

to enquire
<01875> (8800)

of the LORD
<03068>_.

25:23

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, Two
<08147>

nations
<01471>

[are] in thy womb
<0990>_,

and two manner
<08147>

of people
<03816>

shall be separated
<06504> (8735)

from thy bowels
<04578>_;

and [the one] people
<03816>

shall be stronger
<0553> (8799)

than [the other] people
<03816>_;

and the elder
<07227>

shall serve
<05647> (8799)

the younger
<06810>_.

25:24

And when her days
<03117>

to be delivered
<03205> (8800)

were fulfilled
<04390> (8799)_,

behold, [there were] twins
<08380>

in her womb
<0990>_.

25:25

And the first
<07223>

came out
<03318> (8799)

red
<0132>_,

all over like an hairy
<08181>

garment
<0155>_;

and they called
<07121> (8799)

his name
<08034>

Esau
<06215>_.

25:26

And after
<0310>

that came
<03318> (0)

his brother
<0251>

out
<03318> (8804)_,

and his hand
<03027>

took hold
<0270> (8802)

on Esau's
<06215>

heel
<06119>_;

and his name
<08034>

was called
<07121> (8799)

Jacob
<03290>_:

and Isaac
<03327>

[was] threescore
<08346>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

when she bare
<03205> (8800)

them.

25:27

And the boys
<05288>

grew
<01431> (8799)_:

and Esau
<06215>

was a cunning
<03045> (8802)

hunter
<06718>_,

a man
<0376>

of the field
<07704>_;

and Jacob
<03290>

[was] a plain
<08535>

man
<0376>_,

dwelling
<03427> (8802)

in tents
<0168>_.

25:28

And Isaac
<03327>

loved
<0157> (8799)

Esau
<06215>_,

because he did eat
<06310>

of [his] venison
<06718>_:

but Rebekah
<07259>

loved
<0157> (8802)

Jacob
<03290>_.

{he...: Heb. venison was in his mouth}

25:29

And Jacob
<03290>

sod
<02102> (8686)

pottage
<05138>_:

and Esau
<06215>

came
<0935> (8799)

from the field
<07704>_,

and he [was] faint
<05889>_:

25:30

And Esau
<06215>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Jacob
<03290>_,

Feed
<03938> (8685)

me, I pray thee, with
<04480>

that same
<0122>

red
<0122>

[pottage]; for I [am] faint
<05889>_:

therefore was his name
<08034>

called
<07121> (8804)

Edom
<0123>_.

{with...: Heb. with that red, with that red pottage} {Edom: that is Red}

25:31

And Jacob
<03290>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Sell
<04376> (8798)

me this day
<03117>

thy birthright
<01062>_.

25:32

And Esau
<06215>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, I [am] at the point
<01980> (8802)

to die
<04191> (8800)_:

and what profit shall this birthright
<01062>

do to me? {at...: Heb. going to die}

25:33

And Jacob
<03290>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Swear
<07650> (8734)

to me this day
<03117>_;

and he sware
<07650> (8735)

unto him: and he sold
<04376> (8799)

his birthright
<01062>

unto Jacob
<03290>_.

25:34

Then Jacob
<03290>

gave
<05414> (8804)

Esau
<06215>

bread
<03899>

and pottage
<05138>

of lentiles
<05742>_;

and he did eat
<0398> (8799)

and drink
<08354> (8799)_,

and rose up
<06965> (8799)_,

and went his way
<03212> (8799)_:

thus Esau
<06215>

despised
<0959> (8799)

[his] birthright
<01062>_.

26:1

And there was a famine
<07458>

in the land
<0776>_,

beside
<0905>

the first
<07223>

famine
<07458>

that was in the days
<03117>

of Abraham
<085>_.

And Isaac
<03327>

went
<03212> (8799)

unto Abimelech
<040>

king
<04428>

of the Philistines
<06430>

unto Gerar
<01642>_.

26:2

And the LORD
<03068>

appeared
<07200> (8735)

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

Go not down
<03381> (8799)

into Egypt
<04714>_;

dwell
<07931> (8798)

in the land
<0776>

which I shall tell
<0559> (8799)

thee of:

26:3

Sojourn
<01481> (8798)

in this land
<0776>_,

and I will be with thee, and will bless
<01288> (8762)

thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed
<02233>_,

I will give
<05414> (8799)

all these
<0411>

countries
<0776>_,

and I will perform
<06965> (8689)

the oath
<07621>

which I sware
<07650> (8738)

unto Abraham
<085>

thy father
<01>_;

26:4

And I will make
<07235> (0)

thy seed
<02233>

to multiply
<07235> (8689)

as the stars
<03556>

of heaven
<08064>_,

and will give
<05414> (8804)

unto thy seed
<02233>

all these
<0411>

countries
<0776>_;

and in thy seed
<02233>

shall all the nations
<01471>

of the earth
<0776>

be blessed
<01288> (8694)_;

26:5

Because
<06118>

that Abraham
<085>

obeyed
<08085> (8804)

my voice
<06963>_,

and kept
<08104> (8799)

my charge
<04931>_,

my commandments
<04687>_,

my statutes
<02708>_,

and my laws
<08451>_.

26:6

And Isaac
<03327>

dwelt
<03427> (8799)

in Gerar
<01642>_:

26:7

And the men
<0582>

of the place
<04725>

asked
<07592> (8799)

[him] of his wife
<0802>_;

and he said
<0559> (8799)_,

She [is] my sister
<0269>_:

for he feared
<03372> (8804)

to say
<0559> (8800)_,

[She is] my wife
<0802>_;

lest, [said he], the men
<0582>

of the place
<04725>

should kill
<02026> (8799)

me for Rebekah
<07259>_;

because she [was] fair
<02896>

to look upon
<04758>_.

26:8

And it came to pass, when he had been there a long
<0748> (8804)

time
<03117>_,

that Abimelech
<040>

king
<04428>

of the Philistines
<06430>

looked out
<08259> (8686)

at
<01157>

a window
<02474>_,

and saw
<07200> (8799)_,

and, behold, Isaac
<03327>

[was] sporting
<06711> (8764)

with Rebekah
<07259>

his wife
<0802>_.

26:9

And Abimelech
<040>

called
<07121> (8799)

Isaac
<03327>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, of a surety
<0389>

she [is] thy wife
<0802>_:

and how saidst
<0559> (8804)

thou, She [is] my sister
<0269>_?

And Isaac
<03327>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Because I said
<0559> (8804)_,

Lest I die
<04191> (8799)

for her.

26:10

And Abimelech
<040>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

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

unto us? one
<0259>

of the people
<05971>

might lightly
<04592>

have lien
<07901> (8804)

with thy wife
<0802>_,

and thou shouldest have brought
<0935> (8689)

guiltiness
<0817>

upon us.

26:11

And Abimelech
<040>

charged
<06680> (8762)

all [his] people
<05971>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

He that toucheth
<05060> (8802)

this man
<0376>

or his wife
<0802>

shall surely
<04191> (8800)

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

26:12

Then Isaac
<03327>

sowed
<02232> (8799)

in that land
<0776>_,

and received
<04672> (8799)

in the same year
<08141>

an hundredfold
<03967> <08180>_:

and the LORD
<03068>

blessed
<01288> (8762)

him. {received: Heb. found}

26:13

And the man
<0376>

waxed great
<01431> (8799)_,

and went
<03212> (8799)

forward
<01980> (8800)_,

and grew
<01432>

until he became
<01431> (0)

very
<03966>

great
<01431> (8804)_:

{went...: Heb. went going}

26:14

For he had possession
<04735>

of flocks
<06629>_,

and possession
<04735>

of herds
<01241>_,

and great store
<07227>

of servants
<05657>_:

and the Philistines
<06430>

envied
<07065> (8762)

him. {servants: or, husbandry}

26:15

For all the wells
<0875>

which his father's
<01>

servants
<05650>

had digged
<02658> (8804)

in the days
<03117>

of Abraham
<085>

his father
<01>_,

the Philistines
<06430>

had stopped
<05640> (8765)

them, and filled
<04390> (8762)

them with earth
<06083>_.

26:16

And Abimelech
<040>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Isaac
<03327>_,

Go
<03212> (8798)

from us; for thou art much
<03966>

mightier
<06105> (8804)

than we.

26:17

And Isaac
<03327>

departed
<03212> (8799)

thence, and pitched his tent
<02583> (8799)

in the valley
<05158>

of Gerar
<01642>_,

and dwelt
<03427> (8799)

there
<08033>_.

26:18

And Isaac
<03327>

digged
<02658> (8799)

again
<07725> (8799)

the wells
<0875>

of water
<04325>_,

which they had digged
<02658> (8804)

in the days
<03117>

of Abraham
<085>

his father
<01>_;

for the Philistines
<06430>

had stopped
<05640> (8762)

them after
<0310>

the death
<04194>

of Abraham
<085>_:

and he called
<07121> (8799)

their names
<08034>

after the names
<08034>

by which
<0834>

his father
<01>

had called
<07121> (8804)

them.

26:19

And Isaac's
<03327>

servants
<05650>

digged
<02658> (8799)

in the valley
<05158>_,

and found
<04672> (8799)

there a well
<0875>

of springing
<02416>

water
<04325>_.

{springing: Heb. living}

26:20

And the herdmen
<07462> (8802)

of Gerar
<01642>

did strive
<07378> (8799)

with Isaac's
<03327>

herdmen
<07462> (8802)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The water
<04325>

[is] ours: and he called
<07121> (8799)

the name
<08034>

of the well
<0875>

Esek
<06230>_;

because they strove
<06229> (8694)

with him. {Esek: that is, Contention}

26:21

And they digged
<02658> (8799)

another
<0312>

well
<0875>_,

and strove
<07378> (8799)

for that also: and he called
<07121> (8799)

the name of it
<08034>

Sitnah
<07856>_.

{Sitnah: that is, Hatred}

26:22

And he removed
<06275> (8686)

from thence, and digged
<02658> (8799)

another
<0312>

well
<0875>_;

and for that they strove
<07378> (8804)

not: and he called
<07121> (8799)

the name of it
<08034>

Rehoboth
<07344>_;

and he said
<0559> (8799)_,

For now
<06258>

the LORD
<03068>

hath made room
<07337> (8689)

for us, and we shall be fruitful
<06509> (8804)

in the land
<0776>_.

{Rehoboth: that is Room}

26:23

And he went up
<05927> (8799)

from thence to Beersheba
<0884>_.

26:24

And the LORD
<03068>

appeared
<07200> (8735)

unto him the same night
<03915>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

I [am] the God
<0430>

of Abraham
<085>

thy father
<01>_:

fear
<03372> (8799)

not, for I [am] with
<0854>

thee, and will bless
<01288> (8765)

thee, and multiply
<07235> (8689)

thy seed
<02233>

for my servant
<05650>

Abraham's
<085>

sake.

26:25

And he builded
<01129> (8799)

an altar
<04196>

there, and called
<07121> (8799)

upon the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and pitched
<05186> (8799)

his tent
<0168>

there: and there Isaac's
<03327>

servants
<05650>

digged
<03738> (8799)

a well
<0875>_.

26:26

Then Abimelech
<040>

went
<01980> (8804)

to him from Gerar
<01642>_,

and Ahuzzath
<0276>

one of his friends
<04828>_,

and Phichol
<06369>

the chief captain
<08269>

of his army
<06635>_.

26:27

And Isaac
<03327>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Wherefore
<04069>

come
<0935> (8804)

ye to me, seeing ye hate
<08130> (8804)

me, and have sent me away
<07971> (8762)

from you?

26:28

And they said
<0559> (8799)_,

We saw
<07200> (8804)

certainly
<07200> (8800)

that the LORD
<03068>

was with thee: and we said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let there be now an oath
<0423>

betwixt
<0996>

us, [even] betwixt
<0996>

us and thee, and let us make
<03772> (8799)

a covenant
<01285>

with thee; {We saw...: Heb. Seeing we saw}

26:29

That thou wilt do
<06213> (8799)

us no hurt
<07451>_,

as we have not touched
<05060> (8804)

thee, and as we have done
<06213> (8804)

unto thee nothing but
<07535>

good
<02896>_,

and have sent thee away
<07971> (8762)

in peace
<07965>_:

thou [art] now
<06258>

the blessed
<01288> (8803)

of the LORD
<03068>_.

{That...: Heb. If thou shalt}

26:30

And he made
<06213> (8799)

them a feast
<04960>_,

and they did eat
<0398> (8799)

and drink
<08354> (8799)_.

26:31

And they rose up betimes
<07925> (8686)

in the morning
<01242>_,

and sware
<07650> (8735)

one
<0376>

to another
<0251>_:

and Isaac
<03327>

sent them away
<07971> (8762)_,

and they departed
<03212> (8799)

from him in peace
<07965>_.

26:32

And it came to pass the same day
<03117>_,

that Isaac's
<03327>

servants
<05650>

came
<0935> (8799)_,

and told
<05046> (8686)

him concerning
<0182>

the well
<0875>

which they had digged
<02658> (8804)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, We have found
<04672> (8804)

water
<04325>_.

26:33

And he called
<07121> (8799)

it Shebah
<07656>_:

therefore the name
<08034>

of the city
<05892>

[is] Beersheba
<0884>

unto this day
<03117>_.

{Shebah: That is, an oath} {Beersheba: that is, the well of the oath}

26:34

And Esau
<06215>

was forty
<0705>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

when he took
<03947> (8799)

to wife
<0802>

Judith
<03067>

the daughter
<01323>

of Beeri
<0882>

the Hittite
<02850>_,

and Bashemath
<01315>

the daughter
<01323>

of Elon
<0356>

the Hittite
<02850>_:

26:35

Which were a grief
<04786>

of mind
<07307>

unto Isaac
<03327>

and to Rebekah
<07259>_.

{a grief...: Heb. bitterness of spirit}

Psalms 37:35-36

37:35

I have seen
<07200> (8804)

the wicked
<07563>

in great power
<06184>_,

and spreading
<06168> (8693)

himself like a green
<07488>

bay tree
<0249>_.

{a green...: or, a green tree that groweth in his own soil}

37:36

Yet he passed away
<05674> (8799)_,

and, lo, he [was] not: yea, I sought
<01245> (8762)

him, but he could not be found
<04672> (8738)_.

Isaiah 10:33-34

10:33

Behold, the Lord
<0113>_,

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

shall lop
<05586> (8764)

the bough
<06288>

with terror
<04637>_:

and the high ones
<07311> (8802)

of stature
<06967>

[shall be] hewn down
<01438> (8803)_,

and the haughty
<01364>

shall be humbled
<08213> (8799)_.

10:34

And he shall cut down
<05362> (8765)

the thickets
<05442>

of the forest
<03293>

with iron
<01270>_,

and Lebanon
<03844>

shall fall
<05307> (8799)

by a mighty one
<0117>_.

{by...: or, mightily}

Jeremiah 12:2

12:2

Thou hast planted
<05193> (8804)

them, yea, they have taken root
<08327> (8776)_:

they grow
<03212> (8799)_,

yea, they bring forth
<06213> (8804)

fruit
<06529>_:

thou [art] near
<07138>

in their mouth
<06310>_,

and far from
<07350>

their reins
<03629>_.

{they grow: Heb. they go on}

Ezekiel 31:3-18

31:3

Behold, the Assyrian
<0804>

[was] a cedar
<0730>

in Lebanon
<03844>

with fair
<03303>

branches
<06057>_,

and with a shadowing
<06751> (8688)

shroud
<02793>_,

and of an high
<01362>

stature
<06967>_;

and his top
<06788>

was among the thick boughs
<05688>_.

{with fair branches: Heb. fair of branches}

31:4

The waters
<04325>

made him great
<01431> (8765)_,

the deep
<08415>

set him up on high
<07311> (8790)

with her rivers
<05104>

running
<01980> (8802)

round about
<05439>

his plants
<04302>_,

and sent out
<07971> (8765)

her little rivers
<08585>

unto all the trees
<06086>

of the field
<07704>_.

{made...: or, nourished him} {set...: or, brought him up} {little rivers: or, conduits}

31:5

Therefore his height
<06967>

was exalted
<01361> (8804)

above all the trees
<06086>

of the field
<07704>_,

and his boughs
<05634>

were multiplied
<07235> (8799)_,

and his branches
<06288>

became long
<0748> (8799)

because of the multitude
<07227>

of waters
<04325>_,

when he shot forth
<07971> (8763)_.

{when...: or, when it sent them forth}

31:6

All the fowls
<05775>

of heaven
<08064>

made their nests
<07077> (8765)

in his boughs
<05589>_,

and under his branches
<06288>

did all the beasts
<02416>

of the field
<07704>

bring forth their young
<03205> (8804)_,

and under his shadow
<06738>

dwelt
<03427> (8799)

all great
<07227>

nations
<01471>_.

31:7

Thus was he fair
<03302> (8799)

in his greatness
<01433>_,

in the length
<0753>

of his branches
<01808>_:

for his root
<08328>

was by great
<07227>

waters
<04325>_.

31:8

The cedars
<0730>

in the garden
<01588>

of God
<0430>

could not hide
<06004> (8804)

him: the fir trees
<01265>

were not like
<01819> (8804)

his boughs
<05589>_,

and the chesnut trees
<06196>

were not like his branches
<06288>_;

nor any tree
<06086>

in the garden
<01588>

of God
<0430>

was like
<01819> (8804)

unto him in his beauty
<03308>_.

31:9

I have made
<06213> (8804)

him fair
<03303>

by the multitude
<07230>

of his branches
<01808>_:

so that all the trees
<06086>

of Eden
<05731>_,

that [were] in the garden
<01588>

of God
<0430>_,

envied
<07065> (8762)

him.

31:10

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_;

Because thou hast lifted up
<01361> (8804)

thyself in height
<06967>_,

and he hath shot up
<05414> (8799)

his top
<06788>

among the thick boughs
<05688>_,

and his heart
<03824>

is lifted up
<07311> (8804)

in his height
<01363>_;

31:11

I have therefore delivered
<05414> (8799)

him into the hand
<03027>

of the mighty one
<0410>

of the heathen
<01471>_;

he shall surely
<06213> (8800)

deal
<06213> (8799)

with him: I have driven him out
<01644> (8765)

for his wickedness
<07562>_.

{he...: Heb. in doing he shall do unto him}

31:12

And strangers
<02114> (8801)_,

the terrible
<06184>

of the nations
<01471>_,

have cut him off
<03772> (8799)_,

and have left
<05203> (8799)

him: upon the mountains
<02022>

and in all the valleys
<01516>

his branches
<01808>

are fallen
<05307> (8804)_,

and his boughs
<06288>

are broken
<07665> (8735)

by all the rivers
<0650>

of the land
<0776>_;

and all the people
<05971>

of the earth
<0776>

are gone down
<03381> (8799)

from his shadow
<06738>_,

and have left
<05203> (8799)

him.

31:13

Upon his ruin
<04658>

shall all the fowls
<05775>

of the heaven
<08064>

remain
<07931> (8799)_,

and all the beasts
<02416>

of the field
<07704>

shall be upon his branches
<06288>_:

31:14

To the end that none of all the trees
<06086>

by the waters
<04325>

exalt
<01361> (8799)

themselves for their height
<06967>_,

neither shoot up
<05414> (8799)

their top
<06788>

among the thick boughs
<05688>_,

neither their trees
<0352>

stand up
<05975> (8799)

in their height
<01363>_,

all that drink
<08354> (8802)

water
<04325>_:

for they are all delivered
<05414> (8738)

unto death
<04194>_,

to the nether parts
<08482>

of the earth
<0776>_,

in the midst
<08432>

of the children
<01121>

of men
<0120>_,

with them that go down
<03381> (8802)

to the pit
<0953>_.

{their trees...: or, stand upon themselves for their height}

31:15

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_;

In the day
<03117>

when he went down
<03381> (8800)

to the grave
<07585>

I caused a mourning
<056> (8689)_:

I covered
<03680> (8765)

the deep
<08415>

for him, and I restrained
<04513> (8799)

the floods
<05104>

thereof, and the great
<07227>

waters
<04325>

were stayed
<03607> (8735)_:

and I caused Lebanon
<03844>

to mourn
<06937> (8686)

for him, and all the trees
<06086>

of the field
<07704>

fainted
<05969>

for him. {to mourn: Heb. to be black}

31:16

I made the nations
<01471>

to shake
<07493> (8689)

at the sound
<06963>

of his fall
<04658>_,

when I cast him down
<03381> (8687)

to hell
<07585>

with them that descend
<03381> (8802)

into the pit
<0953>_:

and all the trees
<06086>

of Eden
<05731>_,

the choice
<04005>

and best
<02896>

of Lebanon
<03844>_,

all that drink
<08354> (8802)

water
<04325>_,

shall be comforted
<05162> (8735)

in the nether parts
<08482>

of the earth
<0776>_.

31:17

They also went down
<03381> (8804)

into hell
<07585>

with him unto [them that be] slain
<02491>

with the sword
<02719>_;

and [they that were] his arm
<02220>_,

[that] dwelt
<03427> (8804)

under his shadow
<06738>

in the midst
<08432>

of the heathen
<01471>_.

31:18

To whom art thou thus like
<01819> (8804)

in glory
<03519>

and in greatness
<01433>

among the trees
<06086>

of Eden
<05731>_?

yet shalt thou be brought down
<03381> (8717)

with the trees
<06086>

of Eden
<05731>

unto the nether parts
<08482>

of the earth
<0776>_:

thou shalt lie
<07901> (8799)

in the midst
<08432>

of the uncircumcised
<06189>

with [them that be] slain
<02491>

by the sword
<02719>_.

This [is] Pharaoh
<06547>

and all his multitude
<01995>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>_.
