Genesis 32:1--37:36

And Jacob
<03290>

went
<01980> (8804)

on his way
<01870>_,

and the angels
<04397>

of God
<0430>

met
<06293> (8799)

him.

And when Jacob
<03290>

saw them
<07200> (8804)_,

he said
<0559> (8799)_,

This [is] God's
<0430>

host
<04264>_:

and he called
<07121> (8799)

the name
<08034>

of that place
<04725>

Mahanaim
<04266>_.

{Mahanaim: that is, Two hosts, or, camps}

And Jacob
<03290>

sent
<07971> (8799)

messengers
<04397>

before him
<06440>

to Esau
<06215>

his brother
<0251>

unto the land
<0776>

of Seir
<08165>_,

the country
<07704>

of Edom
<0123>_.

{country: Heb. field}

And he commanded
<06680> (8762)

them, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thus shall ye speak
<0559> (8799)

unto my lord
<0113>

Esau
<06215>_;

Thy servant
<05650>

Jacob
<03290>

saith
<0559> (8804)

thus, I have sojourned
<01481> (8804)

with Laban
<03837>_,

and stayed there
<0309> (8799)

until now:

And I have oxen
<07794>_,

and asses
<02543>_,

flocks
<06629>_,

and menservants
<05650>_,

and womenservants
<08198>_:

and I have sent
<07971> (8799)

to tell
<05046> (8687)

my lord
<0113>_,

that I may find
<04672> (8800)

grace
<02580>

in thy sight
<05869>_.

And the messengers
<04397>

returned
<07725> (8799)

to Jacob
<03290>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

We came
<0935> (8804)

to thy brother
<0251>

Esau
<06215>_,

and also he cometh
<01980> (8802)

to meet thee
<07125> (8800)_,

and four hundred
<03967>

men
<0376>

with him.

Then Jacob
<03290>

was greatly
<03966>

afraid
<03372> (8799)

and distressed
<03334> (8799)_:

and he divided
<02673> (8799)

the people
<05971>

that [was] with him, and the flocks
<06629>_,

and herds
<01241>_,

and the camels
<01581>_,

into two
<08147>

bands
<04264>_;

And said
<0559> (8799)_,

If Esau
<06215>

come
<0935> (8799)

to the one
<0259>

company
<04264>_,

and smite it
<05221> (8689)_,

then the other company
<04264>

which is left
<07604> (8737)

shall escape
<06413>_.

And Jacob
<03290>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

O God
<0430>

of my father
<01>

Abraham
<085>_,

and God
<0430>

of my father
<01>

Isaac
<03327>_,

the LORD
<03068>

which saidst
<0559> (8802)

unto me, Return
<07725> (8798)

unto thy country
<0776>_,

and to thy kindred
<04138>_,

and I will deal well
<03190> (8686)

with thee:

I am not worthy of the least
<06994> (8804)

of all the mercies
<02617>_,

and of all the truth
<0571>_,

which thou hast shewed
<06213> (8804)

unto thy servant
<05650>_;

for with my staff
<04731>

I passed over
<05674> (8804)

this Jordan
<03383>_;

and now I am become two
<08147>

bands
<04264>_.

{I am not...: Heb. I am less than all}

Deliver me
<05337> (8685)_,

I pray thee, from the hand
<03027>

of my brother
<0251>_,

from the hand
<03027>

of Esau
<06215>_:

for I fear
<03373>

him, lest he will come
<0935> (8799)

and smite me
<05221> (8689)_,

[and] the mother
<0517>

with
<05921>

the children
<01121>_.

{with: Heb. upon}

And thou saidst
<0559> (8804)_,

I will surely
<03190> (8687)

do thee good
<03190> (8686)_,

and make
<07760> (8804)

thy seed
<02233>

as the sand
<02344>

of the sea
<03220>_,

which cannot be numbered
<05608> (8735)

for multitude
<07230>_.

And he lodged
<03885> (8799)

there that same night
<03915>_;

and took
<03947> (8799)

of that which came
<0935> (8802)

to his hand
<03027>

a present
<04503>

for Esau
<06215>

his brother
<0251>_;

Two hundred
<03967>

she goats
<05795>_,

and twenty
<06242>

he goats
<08495>_,

two hundred
<03967>

ewes
<07353>_,

and twenty
<06242>

rams
<0352>_,

Thirty
<07970>

milch
<03243> (8688)

camels
<01581>

with their colts
<01121>_,

forty
<0705>

kine
<06510>_,

and ten
<06235>

bulls
<06499>_,

twenty
<06242>

she asses
<0860>_,

and ten
<06235>

foals
<05895>_.

And he delivered
<05414> (8799)

[them] into the hand
<03027>

of his servants
<05650>_,

every drove
<05739>

by themselves; and said
<0559> (8799)

unto his servants
<05650>_,

Pass over
<05674> (8798)

before me
<06440>_,

and put
<07760> (8799)

a space
<07305>

betwixt
<0996>

drove
<05739>

and
<0996>

drove
<05739>_.

And he commanded
<06680> (8762)

the foremost
<07223>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

When Esau
<06215>

my brother
<0251>

meeteth thee
<06298> (8799)_,

and asketh thee
<07592> (8804)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Whose [art] thou? and whither goest
<03212> (8799)

thou? and whose [are] these before
<06440>

thee?

Then thou shalt say
<0559> (8804)_,

[They be] thy servant
<05650>

Jacob's
<03290>_;

it [is] a present
<04503>

sent
<07971> (8803)

unto my lord
<0113>

Esau
<06215>_:

and, behold, also he [is] behind us
<0310>_.

And so
<01571>

commanded he
<06680> (8762)

the second
<08145>_,

and the third
<07992>_,

and all that followed
<01980> (8802) <0310>

the droves
<05739>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

On this manner
<01697>

shall ye speak
<01696> (8762)

unto Esau
<06215>_,

when ye find
<04672> (8800)

him.

And say ye
<0559> (8804)

moreover
<01571>_,

Behold, thy servant
<05650>

Jacob
<03290>

[is] behind us
<0310>_.

For he said
<0559> (8804)_,

I will appease
<03722> (8762)

him
<06440>

with the present
<04503>

that goeth
<01980> (8802)

before me
<06440>_,

and afterward
<0310>

I will see
<07200> (8799)

his face
<06440>_;

peradventure he will accept
<05375> (8799)

of me
<06440>_.

{of me: Heb. my face}

So went
<05674> (0)

the present
<04503>

over
<05674> (8799)

before him
<06440>_:

and himself lodged
<03885> (8804)

that night
<03915>

in the company
<04264>_.

And he rose up
<06965> (8799)

that night
<03915>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

his two
<08147>

wives
<0802>_,

and his two
<08147>

womenservants
<08198>_,

and his eleven
<06240> <0259>

sons
<03206>_,

and passed over
<05674> (8799)

the ford
<04569>

Jabbok
<02999>_.

And he took them
<03947> (8799)_,

and sent them over
<05674> (8686)

the brook
<05158>_,

and sent over
<05674> (8686)

that he had. {sent them: Heb. caused to pass}

And Jacob
<03290>

was left
<03498> (8735)

alone; and there wrestled
<079> (8735)

a man
<0376>

with him until the breaking
<05927> (8800)

of the day
<07837>_.

{breaking...: Heb. ascending of the morning}

And when he saw
<07200> (8799)

that he prevailed
<03201> (8804)

not against him, he touched
<05060> (8799)

the hollow of his thigh
<03409>_;

and the hollow
<03709>

of Jacob's
<03290>

thigh
<03409>

was out of joint
<03363> (8799)_,

as he wrestled
<079> (8736)

with him.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let me go
<07971> (8761)_,

for the day
<07837>

breaketh
<05927> (8804)_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will not let thee go
<07971> (8762)_,

except
<0518>

thou bless
<01288> (8765)

me.

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, What [is] thy name
<08034>_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Jacob
<03290>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thy name
<08034>

shall be called
<0559> (8735)

no more Jacob
<03290>_,

but Israel
<03478>_:

for as a prince hast thou power
<08280> (8804)

with God
<0430>

and with men
<0582>_,

and hast prevailed
<03201> (8799)_.

{Israel: that is, A prince of God}

And Jacob
<03290>

asked
<07592> (8799)

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

Tell
<05046> (8685)

[me], I pray thee, thy name
<08034>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Wherefore [is] it
<02088>

[that] thou dost ask
<07592> (8799)

after my name
<08034>_?

And he blessed
<01288> (8762)

him there.

And Jacob
<03290>

called
<07121> (8799)

the name
<08034>

of the place
<04725>

Peniel
<06439>_:

for I have seen
<07200> (8804)

God
<0430>

face
<06440>

to face
<06440>_,

and my life
<05315>

is preserved
<05337> (8735)_.

{Peniel: that is, The face of God}

And as he passed over
<05674> (8804)

Penuel
<06439>

the sun
<08121>

rose
<02224> (8799)

upon him, and he halted
<06760> (8802)

upon his thigh
<03409>_.

Therefore the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

eat
<0398> (8799)

not [of] the sinew
<01517>

which shrank
<05384>_,

which [is] upon the hollow
<03709>

of the thigh
<03409>_,

unto this day
<03117>_:

because he touched
<05060> (8804)

the hollow
<03709>

of Jacob's
<03290>

thigh
<03409>

in the sinew
<01517>

that shrank
<05384>_.

And Jacob
<03290>

lifted up
<05375> (8799)

his eyes
<05869>_,

and looked
<07200> (8799)_,

and, behold, Esau
<06215>

came
<0935> (8802)_,

and with him four
<0702>

hundred
<03967>

men
<0376>_.

And he divided
<02673> (8799)

the children
<03206>

unto Leah
<03812>_,

and unto Rachel
<07354>_,

and unto the two
<08147>

handmaids
<08198>_.

And he put
<07760> (8799)

the handmaids
<08198>

and their children
<03206>

foremost
<07223>_,

and Leah
<03812>

and her children
<03206>

after
<0314>_,

and Rachel
<07354>

and Joseph
<03130>

hindermost
<0314>_.

And he passed over
<05674> (8804)

before them
<06440>_,

and bowed himself
<07812> (8691)

to the ground
<0776>

seven
<07651>

times
<06471>_,

until he came near
<05066> (8800)

to his brother
<0251>_.

And Esau
<06215>

ran
<07323> (8799)

to meet him
<07125> (8800)_,

and embraced
<02263> (8762)

him, and fell
<05307> (8799)

on his neck
<06677>_,

and kissed him
<05401> (8799)_:

and they wept
<01058> (8799)_.

And he lifted up
<05375> (8799)

his eyes
<05869>_,

and saw
<07200> (8799)

the women
<0802>

and the children
<03206>_;

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Who [are] those
<0428>

with thee? And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

The children
<03206>

which God
<0430>

hath graciously given
<02603> (8804)

thy servant
<05650>_.

{with...: Heb. to thee}

Then the handmaidens
<08198>

came near
<05066> (8799)_,

they and their children
<03206>_,

and they bowed themselves
<07812> (8691)_.

And Leah
<03812>

also with her children
<03206>

came near
<05066> (8799)_,

and bowed themselves
<07812> (8691)_:

and after
<0310>

came
<05066> (0)

Joseph
<03130>

near
<05066> (8738)

and Rachel
<07354>_,

and they bowed
<07812> (8691)

themselves.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

What [meanest] thou by all this drove
<04264>

which I met
<06298> (8804)_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

[These are] to find
<04672> (8800)

grace
<02580>

in the sight
<05869>

of my lord
<0113>_.

{What...: Heb. What is all this band to thee?}

And Esau
<06215>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

I have
<03426>

enough
<07227>_,

my brother
<0251>_;

keep that thou hast unto thyself. {keep...: Heb. be that to thee that is thine}

And Jacob
<03290>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Nay, I pray thee, if now I have found
<04672> (8804)

grace
<02580>

in thy sight
<05869>_,

then receive
<03947> (8804)

my present
<04503>

at my hand
<03027>_:

for therefore I have seen
<07200> (8804)

thy face
<06440>_,

as though I had seen
<07200> (8800)

the face
<06440>

of God
<0430>_,

and thou wast pleased with me
<07521> (8799)_.

Take
<03947> (8798)_,

I pray thee, my blessing
<01293>

that is brought
<0935> (8717)

to thee; because God
<0430>

hath dealt graciously with me
<02603> (8804)_,

and because
<03605> (0)

I have
<03426>

enough
<03605>_.

And he urged
<06484> (8799)

him, and he took
<03947> (8799)

[it]. {enough: Heb. all things}

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let us take our journey
<05265> (8799)_,

and let us go
<03212> (8799)_,

and I will go
<03212> (8799)

before thee.

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, My lord
<0113>

knoweth
<03045> (8802)

that the children
<03206>

[are] tender
<07390>_,

and the flocks
<06629>

and herds
<01241>

with young
<05763> (8802)

[are] with me: and if men should overdrive
<01849> (8804)

them one
<0259>

day
<03117>_,

all the flock
<06629>

will die
<04191> (8804)_.

Let my lord
<0113>_,

I pray thee, pass over
<05674> (8799)

before
<06440>

his servant
<05650>_:

and I will lead on
<05095> (8691)

softly
<0328>_,

according as
<07272>

the cattle
<04399>

that goeth before me
<06440>

and the children
<03206>

be able to endure
<07272>_,

until I come
<0935> (8799)

unto my lord
<0113>

unto Seir
<08165>_.

{according...: Heb. according to the foot of the work, etc., and according to the foot of the children}

And Esau
<06215>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let me now leave
<03322> (8686)

with thee [some] of the folk
<05971>

that [are] with me. And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

What
<04100>

needeth it? let me find
<04672> (8799)

grace
<02580>

in the sight
<05869>

of my lord
<0113>_.

{leave: Heb. set, or, place} {What...: Heb. Wherefore is this?}

So Esau
<06215>

returned
<07725> (8799)

that day
<03117>

on his way
<01870>

unto Seir
<08165>_.

And Jacob
<03290>

journeyed
<05265> (8804)

to Succoth
<05523>_,

and built
<01129> (8799)

him an house
<01004>_,

and made
<06213> (8804)

booths
<05521>

for his cattle
<04735>_:

therefore the name
<08034>

of the place
<04725>

is called
<07121> (8804)

Succoth
<05523>_.

{Succoth: that is, Booths}

And Jacob
<03290>

came
<0935> (8799)

to Shalem
<08004>_,

a city
<05892>

of Shechem
<07927>_,

which [is] in the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>_,

when he came
<0935> (8800)

from Padanaram
<06307>_;

and pitched his tent
<02583> (8799)

before
<06440>

the city
<05892>_.

{Shechem: Gr. Sychem}

And he bought
<07069> (8799)

a parcel
<02513>

of a field
<07704>_,

where he had spread
<05186> (8804)

his tent
<0168>_,

at the hand
<03027>

of the children
<01121>

of Hamor
<02544>_,

Shechem's
<07927>

father
<01>_,

for an hundred
<03967>

pieces of money
<07192>_.

{Hamor: Gr. Emmor} {pieces...: or, lambs}

And he erected
<05324> (8686)

there an altar
<04196>_,

and called it
<07121> (8799)

Elelohe-Israel
<0415>_.

{Elelohe-Israel: that is God the God of Israel}

And Dinah
<01783>

the daughter
<01323>

of Leah
<03812>_,

which she bare
<03205> (8804)

unto Jacob
<03290>_,

went out
<03318> (8799)

to see
<07200> (8800)

the daughters
<01323>

of the land
<0776>_.

And when Shechem
<07927>

the son
<01121>

of Hamor
<02544>

the Hivite
<02340>_,

prince
<05387>

of the country
<0776>_,

saw
<07200> (8799)

her, he took
<03947> (8799)

her, and lay
<07901> (8799)

with her, and defiled her
<06031> (8762)_.

{defiled...: Heb. humbled her}

And his soul
<05315>

clave
<01692> (8799)

unto Dinah
<01783>

the daughter
<01323>

of Jacob
<03290>_,

and he loved
<0157> (8799)

the damsel
<05291>_,

and spake
<01696> (8762)

kindly
<03820>

unto the damsel
<05291>_.

{kindly...: Heb. to the heart of the damsel}

And Shechem
<07927>

spake
<0559> (8799)

unto his father
<01>

Hamor
<02544>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Get
<03947> (8798)

me this damsel
<03207>

to wife
<0802>_.

And Jacob
<03290>

heard
<08085> (8804)

that he had defiled
<02930> (8765)

Dinah
<01783>

his daughter
<01323>_:

now his sons
<01121>

were with his cattle
<04735>

in the field
<07704>_:

and Jacob
<03290>

held his peace
<02790> (8689)

until they were come
<0935> (8800)_.

And Hamor
<02544>

the father
<01>

of Shechem
<07927>

went out
<03318> (8799)

unto Jacob
<03290>

to commune
<01696> (8763)

with
<0854>

him.

And the sons
<01121>

of Jacob
<03290>

came
<0935> (8804)

out of the field
<07704>

when they heard
<08085> (8800)

[it]: and the men
<0582>

were grieved
<06087> (8691)_,

and they were very
<03966>

wroth
<02734> (8799)_,

because he had wrought
<06213> (8804)

folly
<05039>

in Israel
<03478>

in lying
<07901> (8800)

with Jacob's
<03290>

daughter
<01323>_;

which thing ought not to be done
<06213> (8735)_.

And Hamor
<02544>

communed
<01696> (8762)

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

The soul
<05315>

of my son
<01121>

Shechem
<07927>

longeth
<02836> (8804)

for your daughter
<01323>_:

I pray you give
<05414> (8798)

her him to wife
<0802>_.

And make ye marriages
<02859> (8690)

with us, [and] give
<05414> (8799)

your daughters
<01323>

unto us, and take
<03947> (8799)

our daughters
<01323>

unto you.

And ye shall dwell
<03427> (8799)

with us: and the land
<0776>

shall be
<01961> (8799)

before you
<06440>_;

dwell
<03427> (8798)

and trade
<05503> (8804)

ye therein, and get you possessions
<0270> (8734)

therein.

And Shechem
<07927>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto her father
<01>

and unto her brethren
<0251>_,

Let me find
<04672> (8799)

grace
<02580>

in your eyes
<05869>_,

and what ye shall say
<0559> (8799)

unto me I will give
<05414> (8799)_.

Ask
<07235> (8685)

me never so much
<03966>

dowry
<04119>

and gift
<04976>_,

and I will give
<05414> (8799)

according as ye shall say
<0559> (8799)

unto me: but give
<05414> (8798)

me the damsel
<05291>

to wife
<0802>_.

And the sons
<01121>

of Jacob
<03290>

answered
<06030> (8799)

Shechem
<07927>

and Hamor
<02544>

his father
<01>

deceitfully
<04820>_,

and said
<01696> (8762)_,

because he had defiled
<02930> (8765)

Dinah
<01783>

their sister
<0269>_:

And they said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, We cannot
<03808> <03201> (8799)

do
<06213> (8800)

this thing
<01697>_,

to give
<05414> (8800)

our sister
<0269>

to one
<0376>

that is uncircumcised
<06190>_;

for that [were] a reproach
<02781>

unto us:

But in this
<02063>

will we consent
<0225> (8735)

unto you: If ye will be as we [be], that every male
<02145>

of you be circumcised
<04135> (8736)_;

Then will we give
<05414> (8804)

our daughters
<01323>

unto you, and we will take
<03947> (8799)

your daughters
<01323>

to us, and we will dwell
<03427> (8804)

with you, and we will become one
<0259>

people
<05971>_.

But if ye will not hearken
<08085> (8799)

unto us, to be circumcised
<04135> (8736)_;

then will we take
<03947> (8804)

our daughter
<01323>_,

and we will be gone
<01980> (8804)_.

And their words
<01697>

pleased
<03190> (8799) <05869>

Hamor
<02544>_,

and Shechem
<07927>

Hamor's
<02544>

son
<01121>_.

And the young man
<05288>

deferred
<0309> (8765)

not to do
<06213> (8800)

the thing
<01697>_,

because he had delight
<02654> (8804)

in Jacob's
<03290>

daughter
<01323>_:

and he [was] more honourable
<03513> (8737)

than all the house
<01004>

of his father
<01>_.

And Hamor
<02544>

and Shechem
<07927>

his son
<01121>

came
<0935> (8799)

unto the gate
<08179>

of their city
<05892>_,

and communed
<01696> (8762)

with the men
<0582>

of their city
<05892>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

These men
<0582>

[are] peaceable
<08003>

with
<0854>

us; therefore let them dwell
<03427> (8799)

in the land
<0776>_,

and trade
<05503> (8799)

therein; for the land
<0776>_,

behold, [it is] large
<07342>

enough
<03027>

for them
<06440>_;

let us take
<03947> (8799)

their daughters
<01323>

to us for wives
<0802>_,

and let us give
<05414> (8799)

them our daughters
<01323>_.

Only herein
<02063>

will the men
<0582>

consent
<0225> (8735)

unto us for to dwell
<03427> (8800)

with us, to be one
<0259>

people
<05971>_,

if every male
<02145>

among us be circumcised
<04135> (8736)_,

as they [are] circumcised
<04135> (8737)_.

[Shall] not their cattle
<04735>

and their substance
<07075>

and every beast
<0929>

of theirs [be] ours? only let us consent
<0225> (8735)

unto them, and they will dwell
<03427> (8799)

with us.

And unto Hamor
<02544>

and unto Shechem
<07927>

his son
<01121>

hearkened
<08085> (8799)

all that went out
<03318> (8802)

of the gate
<08179>

of his city
<05892>_;

and every male
<02145>

was circumcised
<04135> (8735)_,

all that went out
<03318> (8802)

of the gate
<08179>

of his city
<05892>_.

And it came to pass on the third
<07992>

day
<03117>_,

when they were sore
<03510> (8802)_,

that two
<08147>

of the sons
<01121>

of Jacob
<03290>_,

Simeon
<08095>

and Levi
<03878>_,

Dinah's
<01783>

brethren
<0251>_,

took
<03947> (8799)

each man
<0376>

his sword
<02719>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

upon the city
<05892>

boldly
<0983>_,

and slew
<02026> (8799)

all the males
<02145>_.

And they slew
<02026> (8804)

Hamor
<02544>

and Shechem
<07927>

his son
<01121>

with the edge
<06310>

of the sword
<02719>_,

and took
<03947> (0)

Dinah
<01783>

out
<03947> (8799)

of Shechem's
<07927>

house
<01004>_,

and went out
<03318> (8799)_.

{edge: Heb. mouth}

The sons
<01121>

of Jacob
<03290>

came
<0935> (8804)

upon the slain
<02491>_,

and spoiled
<0962> (8799)

the city
<05892>_,

because they had defiled
<02930> (8765)

their sister
<0269>_.

They took
<03947> (8804)

their sheep
<06629>_,

and their oxen
<01241>_,

and their asses
<02543>_,

and that which [was] in the city
<05892>_,

and that which [was] in the field
<07704>_,

And all their wealth
<02428>_,

and all their little ones
<02945>_,

and their wives
<0802>

took they captive
<07617> (8804)_,

and spoiled
<0962> (8799)

even all that [was] in the house
<01004>_.

And Jacob
<03290>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Simeon
<08095>

and Levi
<03878>_,

Ye have troubled
<05916> (8804)

me to make me to stink
<0887> (8687)

among the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of the land
<0776>_,

among the Canaanites
<03669>

and the Perizzites
<06522>_:

and I [being] few
<04962>

in number
<04557>_,

they shall gather themselves together
<0622> (8738)

against me, and slay me
<05221> (8689)_;

and I shall be destroyed
<08045> (8738)_,

I and my house
<01004>_.

And they said
<0559> (8799)_,

Should he deal
<06213> (8799)

with our sister
<0269>

as with an harlot
<02181> (8802)_?

And God
<0430>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jacob
<03290>_,

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

go up
<05927> (8798)

to Bethel
<01008>_,

and dwell
<03427> (8798)

there: and make
<06213> (8798)

there an altar
<04196>

unto God
<0410>_,

that appeared
<07200> (8737)

unto thee when thou fleddest
<01272> (8800)

from the face
<06440>

of Esau
<06215>

thy brother
<0251>_.

Then Jacob
<03290>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto his household
<01004>_,

and to all that [were] with him, Put away
<05493> (8685)

the strange
<05236>

gods
<0430>

that [are] among you
<08432>_,

and be clean
<02891> (8690)_,

and change
<02498> (8685)

your garments
<08071>_:

And let us arise
<06965> (8799)_,

and go up
<05927> (8799)

to Bethel
<01008>_;

and I will make
<06213> (8799)

there an altar
<04196>

unto God
<0410>_,

who answered
<06030> (8802)

me in the day
<03117>

of my distress
<06869>_,

and was with me in the way
<01870>

which I went
<01980> (8804)_.

And they gave
<05414> (8799)

unto Jacob
<03290>

all the strange
<05236>

gods
<0430>

which [were] in their hand
<03027>_,

and [all their] earrings
<05141>

which [were] in their ears
<0241>_;

and Jacob
<03290>

hid
<02934> (8799)

them under the oak
<0424>

which [was] by Shechem
<07927>_.

And they journeyed
<05265> (8799)_:

and the terror
<02847>

of God
<0430>

was upon the cities
<05892>

that [were] round about
<05439>

them, and they did not pursue
<07291> (8804)

after
<0310>

the sons
<01121>

of Jacob
<03290>_.

So Jacob
<03290>

came
<0935> (8799)

to Luz
<03870>_,

which [is] in the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>_,

that [is], Bethel
<01008>_,

he and all the people
<05971>

that [were] with him.

And he built
<01129> (8799)

there an altar
<04196>_,

and called
<07121> (8799)

the place
<04725>

Elbethel
<0416>_:

because there God
<0430>

appeared
<01540> (8738)

unto him, when he fled
<01272> (8800)

from the face
<06440>

of his brother
<0251>_.

{Elbethel: that is, The God of Bethel}

But Deborah
<01683>

Rebekah's
<07259>

nurse
<03243> (8688)

died
<04191> (8799)_,

and she was buried
<06912> (8735)

beneath Bethel
<01008>

under an oak
<0437>_:

and the name
<08034>

of it was called
<07121> (8799)

Allonbachuth
<0439>_.

{Allonbachuth: that is, The oak of weeping}

And God
<0430>

appeared
<07200> (8735)

unto Jacob
<03290>

again, when he came
<0935> (8800)

out of Padanaram
<06307>_,

and blessed
<01288> (8762)

him.

And God
<0430>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Thy name
<08034>

[is] Jacob
<03290>_:

thy name
<08034>

shall not be called
<07121> (8735)

any more Jacob
<03290>_,

but Israel
<03478>

shall be thy name
<08034>_:

and he called
<07121> (8799)

his name
<08034>

Israel
<03478>_.

And God
<0430>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, I [am] God
<0410>

Almighty
<07706>_:

be fruitful
<06509> (8798)

and multiply
<07235> (8798)_;

a nation
<01471>

and a company
<06951>

of nations
<01471>

shall be of thee, and kings
<04428>

shall come
<03318> (8799)

out of thy loins
<02504>_;

And the land
<0776>

which I gave
<05414> (8804)

Abraham
<085>

and Isaac
<03327>_,

to thee I will give it
<05414> (8799)_,

and to thy seed
<02233>

after thee
<0310>

will I give
<05414> (8799)

the land
<0776>_.

And God
<0430>

went up
<05927> (8799)

from him in the place
<04725>

where he talked
<01696> (8765)

with him.

And Jacob
<03290>

set up
<05324> (8686)

a pillar
<04676>

in the place
<04725>

where he talked
<01696> (8765)

with him, [even] a pillar
<04678>

of stone
<068>_:

and he poured
<05258> (8686)

a drink offering
<05262>

thereon, and he poured
<03332> (8799)

oil
<08081>

thereon.

And Jacob
<03290>

called
<07121> (8799)

the name
<08034>

of the place
<04725>

where God
<0430>

spake
<01696> (8765)

with him, Bethel
<01008>_.

And they journeyed
<05265> (8799)

from Bethel
<01008>_;

and there was but
<05750>

a little
<03530>

way
<0776>

to come
<0935> (8800)

to Ephrath
<0672>_:

and Rachel
<07354>

travailed
<03205> (8799)_,

and she had hard
<07185> (8762)

labour
<03205> (8800)_.

{a little...: Heb. a little piece of ground}

And it came to pass, when she was in hard
<07185> (8687)

labour
<03205> (8800)_,

that the midwife
<03205> (8764)

said
<0559> (8799)

unto her, Fear
<03372> (8799)

not; thou shalt have this son
<01121>

also.

And it came to pass, as her soul
<05315>

was in departing
<03318> (8800)_,

(for she died
<04191> (8804))

that she called
<07121> (8799)

his name
<08034>

Benoni
<01126>_:

but his father
<01>

called
<07121> (8804)

him Benjamin
<01144>_.

{Benoni: that is, The son of my sorrow} {Benjamin: that is, The son of the right hand}

And Rachel
<07354>

died
<04191> (8799)_,

and was buried
<06912> (8735)

in the way
<01870>

to Ephrath
<0672>_,

which [is] Bethlehem
<01035>_.

And Jacob
<03290>

set
<05324> (8686)

a pillar
<04676>

upon her grave
<06900>_:

that [is] the pillar
<04678>

of Rachel's
<07354>

grave
<06900>

unto this day
<03117>_.

And Israel
<03478>

journeyed

his tent
<0168>

beyond
<01973>

the tower
<04026>

of Edar
<04029>_.

And it came to pass, when Israel
<03478>

dwelt
<07931> (8800)

in that land
<0776>_,

that Reuben
<07205>

went
<03212> (8799)

and lay
<07901> (8799)

with Bilhah
<01090>

his father's
<01>

concubine
<06370>_:

and Israel
<03478>

heard
<08085> (8799)

[it]. Now the sons
<01121>

<03290>

<01121>

of Jacob
<03290>_,

which were born
<03205> (8795)

to him in Padanaram
<06307>_.

And Jacob
<03290>

<01>

unto Mamre
<04471>_,

unto the city of Arbah
<07153>_,

which [is] Hebron
<02275>_,

where Abraham
<085>

and Isaac
<03327>

sojourned
<01481> (8804)_.

And the days
<03117>

of Isaac
<03327>

were an hundred
<03967> <08141>

and fourscore
<08084>

years
<08141>_.

And Isaac
<03327>

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

and died
<04191> (8799)_,

and was gathered
<0622> (8735)

unto his people
<05971>_,

[being] old
<02205>

and full
<07649>

of days
<03117>_:

and his sons
<01121>

Esau
<06215>

and Jacob
<03290>

buried
<06912> (8799)

him.

Now these [are] the generations
<08435>

of Esau
<06215>_,

who [is] Edom
<0123>_.

Esau
<06215>

took
<03947> (8804)

<01315>

<01315>

<07467>_;

<03274>_,

and Jaalam
<03281>_,

and Korah
<07141>_:

these [are] the sons
<01121>

of Esau
<06215>_,

which were born
<03205> (8795)

unto him in the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>_.

And Esau
<06215>

took
<03947> (8799)

his wives
<0802>_,

and his sons
<01121>_,

and his daughters
<01323>_,

and all the persons
<05315>

of his house
<01004>_,

and his cattle
<04735>_,

and all his beasts
<0929>_,

and all his substance
<07075>_,

which he had got
<07408> (8804)

in the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>_;

and went
<03212> (8799)

into the country
<0776>

from the face
<06440>

of his brother
<0251>

Jacob
<03290>_.

{persons: Heb. souls}

For their riches
<07399>

were more
<07227>

than that they might dwell
<03427> (8800)

together
<03162>_;

and the land
<0776>

wherein they were strangers
<04033>

could
<03201> (8804)

not bear
<05375> (8800)

them because
<06440>

of their cattle
<04735>_.

Thus dwelt

[it] his brethren

him yet the more
<03254> (8686)_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Hear
<08085> (8798)_,

I pray you, this dream
<02472>

which I have dreamed
<02492> (8804)_:

For, behold, we [were] binding
<0481> (8764) <08432>

sheaves
<0485>

in the field
<07704>_,

and, lo, my sheaf
<0485>

arose
<06965> (8804)_,

and also stood upright
<05324> (8738)_;

and, behold, your sheaves
<0485>

stood round about
<05437> (8799)_,

and made obeisance
<07812> (8691)

to my sheaf
<0485>_.

And his brethren
<0251>

said
<0559> (8799)

to him, Shalt thou indeed
<04427> (8800)

reign
<04427> (8799)

over us? or shalt thou indeed
<04910> (8800)

have dominion
<04910> (8799)

over us? And they hated
<08130> (8800)

him yet the more
<03254> (8686)

for his dreams
<02472>_,

and for his words
<01697>_.

And he dreamed
<02492> (8799)

yet another
<0312>

dream
<02472>_,

and told
<05608> (8762)

it his brethren
<0251>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, I have dreamed
<02492> (8804)

a dream
<02472>

more; and, behold, the sun
<08121>

and the moon
<03394>

and the eleven
<06240> <0259>

stars
<03556>

made obeisance
<07812> (8693)

to me.

And he told
<05608> (8762)

[it] to his father
<01>_,

and to his brethren
<0251>_:

and his father
<01>

rebuked
<01605> (8799)

him, and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, What [is] this dream
<02472>

that thou hast dreamed
<02492> (8804)_?

Shall I and thy mother
<0517>

and thy brethren
<0251>

indeed
<0935> (8800)

come
<0935> (8799)

to bow down
<07812> (8692)

ourselves to thee to the earth
<0776>_?

And his brethren
<0251>

envied
<07065> (8762)

him; but his father
<01>

observed
<08104> (8804)

the saying
<01697>_.

And his brethren
<0251>

went
<03212> (8799)

to feed
<07462> (8800)

their father's
<01>

flock
<06629>

in Shechem
<07927>_.

And Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Joseph
<03130>_,

Do not thy brethren
<0251>

feed
<07462> (8802)

[the flock] in Shechem
<07927>_?

come
<03212> (8798)_,

and I will send thee
<07971> (8799)

unto them. And he said
<0559> (8799)

to him, Here [am I].

And he said
<0559> (8799)

to him, Go
<03212> (8798)_,

I pray thee, see
<07200> (8798)

whether it be well
<07965>

with thy brethren
<0251>_,

and well
<07965>

with the flocks
<06629>_;

and bring
<07725> (0)

me word
<01697>

again
<07725> (8685)_.

So he sent
<07971> (8799)

him out of the vale
<06010>

of Hebron
<02275>_,

and he came
<0935> (8799)

to Shechem
<07927>_.

{see...: Heb. see the peace of thy brethren, etc.}

And a certain man
<0376>

found him
<04672> (8799)_,

and, behold, [he was] wandering
<08582> (8802)

in the field
<07704>_:

and the man
<0376>

asked him
<07592> (8799)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

What seekest
<01245> (8762)

thou?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I seek
<01245> (8764)

my brethren
<0251>_:

tell
<05046> (8685)

me, I pray thee, where
<0375>

they feed
<07462> (8802)

[their flocks].

And the man
<0376>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

They are departed
<05265> (8804)

hence
<02088>_;

for I heard
<08085> (8804)

them say
<0559> (8802)_,

Let us go
<03212> (8799)

to Dothan
<01886>_.

And Joseph
<03130>

went
<03212> (8799)

after
<0310>

his brethren
<0251>_,

and found
<04672> (8799)

them in Dothan
<01886>_.

And when they saw
<07200> (8799)

him afar off
<07350>_,

even before he came near
<07126> (8799)

unto them, they conspired
<05230> (8691)

against him to slay
<04191> (8687)

him.

And they said
<0559> (8799)

one
<0376>

to another
<0251>_,

Behold, this
<01976>

dreamer
<01167> <02472>

cometh
<0935> (8802)_.

{dreamer: Heb. master of dreams}

Come
<03212> (8798)

now therefore, and let us slay
<02026> (8799)

him, and cast
<07993> (8686)

him into some
<0259>

pit
<0953>_,

and we will say
<0559> (8804)_,

Some evil
<07451>

beast
<02416>

hath devoured
<0398> (8804)

him: and we shall see
<07200> (8799)

what will become of his dreams
<02472>_.

And Reuben
<07205>

heard
<08085> (8799)

[it], and he delivered
<05337> (8686)

him out of their hands
<03027>_;

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let us not kill
<05221> (8686) <05315>

him.

And Reuben
<07205>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Shed
<08210> (8799)

no blood
<01818>_,

[but] cast
<07993> (8685)

him into this pit
<0953>

that [is] in the wilderness
<04057>_,

and lay
<07971> (8799)

no hand
<03027>

upon him; that he might rid
<05337> (8687)

him out of their hands
<03027>_,

to deliver
<07725> (0)

him to his father
<01>

again
<07725> (8687)_.

And it came to pass, when Joseph
<03130>

was come
<0935> (8804)

unto his brethren
<0251>_,

that they stript
<06584> (8686) <0853>

Joseph
<03130>

out of
<0854>

his coat
<03801>_,

[his] coat
<03801>

of [many] colours
<06446>

that [was] on him; {colours: or, pieces}

And they took
<03947> (8799)

him, and cast
<07993> (8686)

him into a pit
<0953>_:

and the pit
<0953>

[was] empty
<07386>_,

[there was] no water
<04325>

in it.

And they sat down
<03427> (8799)

to eat
<0398> (8800)

bread
<03899>_:

and they lifted up
<05375> (8799)

their eyes
<05869>

and looked
<07200> (8799)_,

and, behold, a company
<0736>

of Ishmeelites
<03459>

came
<0935> (8802)

from Gilead
<01568>

with their camels
<01581>

bearing
<05375> (8802)

spicery
<05219>

and balm
<06875>

and myrrh
<03910>_,

going
<01980> (8802)

to carry [it] down
<03381> (8687)

to Egypt
<04714>_.

And Judah
<03063>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto his brethren
<0251>_,

What profit
<01215>

[is it] if we slay
<02026> (8799)

our brother
<0251>_,

and conceal
<03680> (8765)

his blood
<01818>_?

Come
<03212> (8798)_,

and let us sell
<04376> (8799)

him to the Ishmeelites
<03459>_,

and let not our hand
<03027>

be upon him; for he [is] our brother
<0251>

[and] our flesh
<01320>_.

And his brethren
<0251>

were content
<08085> (8799)_.

{were...: Heb. hearkened}

Then there passed
<05674> (8799)

by Midianites
<04084>

merchantmen
<0582> <05503> (8802)_;

and they drew
<04900> (8799)

and lifted up
<05927> (8686)

Joseph
<03130>

out of the pit
<0953>_,

and sold
<04376> (8799)

Joseph
<03130>

to the Ishmeelites
<03459>

for twenty
<06242>

[pieces] of silver
<03701>_:

and they brought
<0935> (8686)

Joseph
<03130>

into Egypt
<04714>_.

And Reuben
<07205>

returned
<07725> (8799)

unto the pit
<0953>_;

and, behold, Joseph
<03130>

[was] not in the pit
<0953>_;

and he rent
<07167> (8799)

his clothes
<0899>_.

And he returned
<07725> (8799)

unto his brethren
<0251>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

The child
<03206>

[is] not; and I, whither
<0575>

shall I go
<0935> (8802)_?

And they took
<03947> (8799)

Joseph's
<03130>

coat
<03801>_,

and killed
<07819> (8799)

a kid
<08163>

of the goats
<05795>_,

and dipped
<02881> (8799)

the coat
<03801>

in the blood
<01818>_;

And they sent
<07971> (8762)

the coat
<03801>

of [many] colours
<06446>_,

and they brought
<0935> (8686)

[it] to their father
<01>_;

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

This have we found
<04672> (8804)_:

know
<05234> (8685)

now whether it [be] thy son's
<01121>

coat
<03801>

or no.

And he knew it
<05234> (8686)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

[It is] my son's
<01121>

coat
<03801>_;

an evil
<07451>

beast
<02416>

hath devoured
<0398> (8804)

him; Joseph
<03130>

is without doubt
<02963> (8800)

rent in pieces
<02963> (8776)_.

And Jacob
<03290>

rent
<07167> (8799)

his clothes
<08071>_,

and put
<07760> (8799)

sackcloth
<08242>

upon his loins
<04975>_,

and mourned
<056> (8691)

for his son
<01121>

many
<07227>

days
<03117>_.

And all his sons
<01121>

and all his daughters
<01323>

rose up
<06965> (8799)

to comfort
<05162> (8763)

him; but he refused
<03985> (8762)

to be comforted
<05162> (8692)_;

and he said
<0559> (8799)_,

For I will go down
<03381> (8799)

into the grave
<07585>

unto my son
<01121>

mourning
<057>_.

Thus his father
<01>

wept
<01058> (8799)

for him.

And the Midianites
<04092>

sold
<04376> (8804)

him into Egypt
<04714>

unto Potiphar
<06318>_,

an officer
<05631>

of Pharaoh's
<06547>_,

[and] captain
<08269>

of the guard
<02876>_.

{officer: Heb. eunuch: but the word doth signify not only eunuchs, but also chamberlains, courtiers, and officers} {captain...: or, chief marshal: Heb. chief of the slaughter men, or executioners}

1 Kings 18:4

For it was [so], when Jezebel
<0348>

cut off
<03772> (8687)

the prophets
<05030>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

that Obadiah
<05662>

took
<03947> (8799)

an hundred
<03967>

prophets
<05030>_,

and hid
<02244> (8686)

them by fifty
<0376> <02572>

in a cave
<04631>_,

and fed
<03557> (8773)

them with bread
<03899>

and water
<04325>.)

{Jezebel: Heb. Izebel}

1 Kings 21:15

And it came to pass, when Jezebel
<0348>

heard
<08085> (8800)

that Naboth
<05022>

was stoned
<05619> (8795)_,

and was dead
<04191> (8799)_,

that Jezebel
<0348>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Ahab
<0256>_,

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

take possession
<03423> (8798)

of the vineyard
<03754>

of Naboth
<05022>

the Jezreelite
<03158>_,

which he refused
<03985> (8765)

to give
<05414> (8800)

thee for money
<03701>_:

for Naboth
<05022>

is not alive
<02416>_,

but dead
<04191> (8804)_.

1 Kings 21:21

Behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)

evil
<07451>

upon thee, and will take away
<01197> (8765)

thy posterity
<0310>_,

and will cut off
<03772> (8689)

from Ahab
<0256>

him that pisseth
<08366> (8688)

against the wall
<07023>_,

and him that is shut up
<06113> (8803)

and left
<05800> (8803)

in Israel
<03478>_,

1 Kings 21:25

But there was none like unto Ahab
<0256>_,

which did sell
<04376> (8694)

himself to work
<06213> (8800)

wickedness
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

whom Jezebel
<0348>

his wife
<0802>

stirred up
<05496> (8689)_.
