1 In the beginning7225 God430 created1254 853 the heaven8064 and the earth.776
2 And the earth776 was1961 without form,8414 and void;922 and darkness2822 was upon5921 the face6440 of the deep.8415 And the Spirit7307 of God430 moved7363 upon5921 the face6440 of the waters.4325
3 And God430 said,559 Let there be1961 light:216 and there was1961 light.216
4 And God430 saw7200 853 the light,216 that3588 it was good:2896 and God430 divided914 996 the light216 from996 the darkness.2822
5 And God430 called7121 the light216 Day,3117 and the darkness2822 he called7121 Night.3915 And the evening6153 and the morning1242 were1961 the first259 day.3117
6 And God430 said,559 Let there be1961 a firmament7549 in the midst8432 of the waters,4325 and let1961 it divide914 996 the waters4325 from the waters.4325
7 And God430 made6213 853 the firmament,7549 and divided914 996 the waters4325 which834 were under4480 8478 the firmament7549 from996 the waters4325 which834 were above4480 5921 the firmament:7549 and it was1961 so.3651
8 And God430 called7121 the firmament7549 Heaven.8064 And the evening6153 and the morning1242 were1961 the second8145 day.3117
9 And God430 said,559 Let the waters4325 under4480 8478 the heaven8064 be gathered together6960 unto413 one259 place,4725 and let the dry3004 land appear:7200 and it was1961 so.3651
10 And God430 called7121 the dry3004 land Earth;776 and the gathering together4723 of the waters4325 called7121 he Seas:3220 and God430 saw7200 that3588 it was good.2896
11 And God430 said,559 Let the earth776 bring forth1876 grass,1877 the herb6212 yielding2232 seed,2233 and the fruit6529 tree6086 yielding6213 fruit6529 after his kind,4327 whose834 seed2233 is in itself, upon5921 the earth:776 and it was1961 so.3651
12 And the earth776 brought forth3318 grass,1877 and herb6212 yielding2232 seed2233 after his kind,4327 and the tree6086 yielding6213 fruit,6529 whose834 seed2233 was in itself, after his kind:4327 and God430 saw7200 that3588 it was good.2896
13 And the evening6153 and the morning1242 were1961 the third7992 day.3117
14 And God430 said,559 Let there be1961 lights3974 in the firmament7549 of the heaven8064 to divide914 996 the day3117 from996 the night;3915 and let them be1961 for signs,226 and for seasons,4150 and for days,3117 and years:8141
15 And let them be1961 for lights3974 in the firmament7549 of the heaven8064 to give light215 upon5921 the earth:776 and it was1961 so.3651
16 And God430 made6213 853 two8147 great1419 lights;3974 853 the greater1419 light3974 to rule4475 the day,3117 and the lesser6996 light3974 to rule4475 the night:3915 he made the stars3556 also.
17 And God430 set5414 them in the firmament7549 of the heaven8064 to give light215 upon5921 the earth,776
18 And to rule4910 over the day3117 and over the night,3915 and to divide914 996 the light216 from996 the darkness:2822 and God430 saw7200 that3588 it was good.2896
19 And the evening6153 and the morning1242 were1961 the fourth7243 day.3117
20 And God430 said,559 Let the waters4325 bring forth abundantly8317 the moving creature8318 that hath life,5315 2416 and fowl5775 that may fly5774 above5921 the earth776 in5921 the open6440 firmament7549 of heaven.8064
21 And God430 created1254 853 great1419 whales,8577 and every3605 living2416 creature5315 that moveth,7430 which834 the waters4325 brought forth abundantly,8317 after their kind,4327 and every3605 winged3671 fowl5775 after his kind:4327 and God430 saw7200 that3588 it was good.2896
22 And God430 blessed1288 them, saying,559 Be fruitful,6509 and multiply,7235 and fill4390 853 the waters4325 in the seas,3220 and let fowl5775 multiply7235 in the earth.776
23 And the evening6153 and the morning1242 were1961 the fifth2549 day.3117
24 And God430 said,559 Let the earth776 bring forth3318 the living2416 creature5315 after his kind,4327 cattle,929 and creeping thing,7431 and beast2416 of the earth776 after his kind:4327 and it was1961 so.3651
25 And God430 made6213 853 the beast2416 of the earth776 after his kind,4327 and cattle929 after their kind,4327 and every thing3605 that creepeth7431 upon the earth127 after his kind:4327 and God430 saw7200 that3588 it was good.2896
26 And God430 said,559 Let us make6213 man120 in our image,6754 after our likeness:1823 and let them have dominion7287 over the fish1710 of the sea,3220 and over the fowl5775 of the air,8064 and over the cattle,929 and over all3605 the earth,776 and over every3605 creeping thing7431 that creepeth7430 upon5921 the earth.776
27 So God430 created1254 853 man120 in his own image,6754 in the image6754 of God430 created1254 he him; male2145 and female5347 created1254 he them.
28 And God430 blessed1288 them, and God430 said559 unto them, Be fruitful,6509 and multiply,7235 and replenish4390 853 the earth,776 and subdue3533 it: and have dominion7287 over the fish1710 of the sea,3220 and over the fowl5775 of the air,8064 and over every3605 living thing2416 that moveth7430 upon5921 the earth.776
29 And God430 said,559 Behold,2009 I have given5414 you 853 every3605 herb6212 bearing2232 seed,2233 which834 is upon5921 the face6440 of all3605 the earth,776 and every3605 tree,6086 in the which834 is the fruit6529 of a tree6086 yielding2232 seed;2233 to you it shall be1961 for meat.402
30 And to every3605 beast2416 of the earth,776 and to every3605 fowl5775 of the air,8064 and to every thing3605 that creepeth7430 upon5921 the earth,776 wherein834 there is life,5315 2416 I have given 853 every3605 green3418 herb6212 for meat:402 and it was1961 so.3651
31 And God430 saw7200 853 every thing3605 that834 he had made,6213 and, behold,2009 it was very3966 good.2896 And the evening6153 and the morning1242 were1961 the sixth8345 day.3117
1 Thus the heavens8064 and the earth776 were finished,3615 and all3605 the host6635 of them.
2 And on the seventh7637 day3117 God430 ended3615 his work4399 which834 he had made;6213 and he rested7673 on the seventh7637 day3117 from all4480 3605 his work4399 which834 he had made.6213
3 And God430 blessed1288 853 the seventh7637 day,3117 and sanctified6942 it: because3588 that in it he had rested7673 from all4480 3605 his work4399 which834 God430 created1254 and made.6213
4 These428 are the generations8435 of the heavens8064 and of the earth776 when they were created,1254 in the day3117 that the LORD3068 God430 made6213 the earth776 and the heavens,8064
5 And every3605 plant7880 of the field7704 before2962 it was1961 in the earth,776 and every3605 herb6212 of the field7704 before2962 it grew:6779 for3588 the LORD3068 God430 had not3808 caused it to rain4305 upon5921 the earth,776 and there was not369 a man120 to till5647 853 the ground.127
6 But there went up5927 a mist108 from4480 the earth,776 and watered8248 853 the whole3605 face6440 of the ground.127
7 And the LORD3068 God430 formed3335 853 man120 of the dust6083 of4480 the ground,127 and breathed5301 into his nostrils639 the breath5397 of life;2416 and man120 became1961 a living2416 soul.5315
8 And the LORD3068 God430 planted5193 a garden1588 eastward4480 6924 in Eden;5731 and there8033 he put7760 853 the man120 whom834 he had formed.3335
9 And out of4480 the ground127 made the LORD3068 God430 to grow6779 every3605 tree6086 that is pleasant2530 to the sight,4758 and good2896 for food;3978 the tree6086 of life2416 also in the midst8432 of the garden,1588 and the tree6086 of knowledge1847 of good2896 and evil.7451
10 And a river5104 went out3318 of Eden4480 5731 to water8248 853 the garden;1588 and from thence4480 8033 it was parted,6504 and became1961 into four702 heads.7218
11 The name8034 of the first259 is Pison:6376 that is it1931 which compasseth5437 853 the whole3605 land776 of Havilah,2341 where834 8033 there is gold;2091
12 And the gold2091 of that1931 land776 is good:2896 there8033 is bdellium916 and the onyx7718 stone.68
13 And the name8034 of the second8145 river5104 is Gihon:1521 the same1931 is it that compasseth5437 853 the whole3605 land776 of Ethiopia.3568
14 And the name8034 of the third7992 river5104 is Hiddekel:2313 that is it1931 which goeth1980 toward the east6926 of Assyria.804 And the fourth7243 river5104 is Euphrates.6578
15 And the LORD3068 God430 took3947 853 the man,120 and put5117 him into the garden1588 of Eden5731 to dress5647 it and to keep8104 it.
16 And the LORD3068 God430 commanded6680 5921 the man,120 saying,559 Of every4480 3605 tree6086 of the garden1588 thou mayest freely eat:398 398
17 But of the tree4480 6086 of the knowledge1847 of good2896 and evil,7451 thou shalt not3808 eat398 of4480 it: for3588 in the day3117 that thou eatest398 thereof4480 thou shalt surely die.4191 4191
18 And the LORD3068 God430 said,559 It is not3808 good2896 that the man120 should be1961 alone;905 I will make6213 him a help5828 meet for him.5048
19 And out of4480 the ground127 the LORD3068 God430 formed3335 every3605 beast2416 of the field,7704 and every3605 fowl5775 of the air;8064 and brought935 them unto413 Adam121 to see7200 what4100 he would call7121 them: and whatsoever3605 834 Adam121 called7121 every living2416 creature,5315 that1931 was the name8034 thereof.
20 And Adam121 gave7121 names8034 to all3605 cattle,929 and to the fowl5775 of the air,8064 and to every3605 beast2416 of the field;7704 but for Adam121 there was not3808 found4672 a help5828 meet for him.5048
21 And the LORD3068 God430 caused a deep sleep8639 to fall5307 upon5921 Adam,121 and he slept:3462 and he took3947 one259 of his ribs,4480 6763 and closed up5462 the flesh1320 instead8478 thereof;
22 And 853 the rib,6763 which834 the LORD3068 God430 had taken3947 from4480 man,120 made1129 he a woman,802 and brought935 her unto413 the man.120
23 And Adam121 said,559 This2063 is now6471 bone6106 of my bones,4480 6106 and flesh1320 of my flesh:4480 1320 she2063 shall be called7121 Woman,802 because3588 she2063 was taken3947 out of Man.4480 376
24 Therefore5921 3651 shall a man376 leave5800 853 his father1 and his mother,517 and shall cleave1692 unto his wife:802 and they shall be1961 one259 flesh.1320
25 And they were1961 both8147 naked,6174 the man120 and his wife,802 and were not3808 ashamed.954
1 Now the serpent5175 was1961 more subtle6175 than any4480 3605 beast2416 of the field7704 which834 the LORD3068 God430 had made.6213 And he said559 unto413 the woman,802 Yea,637 3588 hath God430 said,559 Ye shall not3808 eat398 of every4480 3605 tree6086 of the garden?1588
2 And the woman802 said559 unto413 the serpent,5175 We may eat398 of the fruit4480 6529 of the trees6086 of the garden:1588
3 But of the fruit4480 6529 of the tree6086 which834 is in the midst8432 of the garden,1588 God430 hath said,559 Ye shall not3808 eat398 of4480 it, neither3808 shall ye touch5060 it, lest6435 ye die.4191
4 And the serpent5175 said559 unto413 the woman,802 Ye shall not3808 surely die:4191 4191
5 For3588 God430 doth know3045 that3588 in the day3117 ye eat398 thereof,4480 then your eyes5869 shall be opened,6491 and ye shall be1961 as gods,430 knowing3045 good2896 and evil.7451
6 And when the woman802 saw7200 that3588 the tree6086 was good2896 for food,3978 and that3588 it1931 was pleasant8378 to the eyes,5869 and a tree6086 to be desired2530 to make one wise,7919 she took3947 of the fruit4480 6529 thereof, and did eat,398 and gave5414 also1571 unto her husband376 with5973 her; and he did eat.398
7 And the eyes5869 of them both8147 were opened,6491 and they knew3045 that3588 they1992 were naked;5903 and they sewed8609 fig8384 leaves5929 together, and made6213 themselves aprons.2290
8 And they heard8085 853 the voice6963 of the LORD3068 God430 walking1980 in the garden1588 in the cool7307 of the day:3117 and Adam121 and his wife802 hid themselves2244 from the presence4480 6440 of the LORD3068 God430 amongst8432 the trees6086 of the garden.1588
9 And the LORD3068 God430 called7121 unto413 Adam,121 and said559 unto him, Where335 art thou?
10 And he said,559 I heard8085 853 thy voice6963 in the garden,1588 and I was afraid,3372 because3588 I595 was naked;5903 and I hid myself.2244
11 And he said,559 Who4310 told5046 thee that3588 thou859 wast naked?5903 Hast thou eaten398 of4480 the tree,6086 whereof834 4480 I commanded6680 thee that thou shouldest not1115 eat?398
12 And the man120 said,559 The woman802 whom834 thou gavest5414 to be with5973 me, she1931 gave5414 me of4480 the tree,6086 and I did eat.398
13 And the LORD3068 God430 said559 unto the woman,802 What4100 is this2063 that thou hast done?6213 And the woman802 said,559 The serpent5175 beguiled5377 me, and I did eat.398
14 And the LORD3068 God430 said559 unto413 the serpent,5175 Because3588 thou hast done6213 this,2063 thou859 art cursed779 above all4480 3605 cattle,929 and above every4480 3605 beast2416 of the field;7704 upon5921 thy belly1512 shalt thou go,1980 and dust6083 shalt thou eat398 all3605 the days3117 of thy life:2416
15 And I will put7896 enmity342 between996 thee and the woman,802 and between996 thy seed2233 and her seed;2233 it1931 shall bruise7779 thy head,7218 and thou859 shalt bruise7779 his heel.6119
16 Unto413 the woman802 he said,559 I will greatly7235 multiply7235 thy sorrow6093 and thy conception;2032 in sorrow6089 thou shalt bring forth3205 children;1121 and thy desire8669 shall be to413 thy husband,376 and he1931 shall rule4910 over thee.
17 And unto Adam121 he said,559 Because3588 thou hast hearkened8085 unto the voice6963 of thy wife,802 and hast eaten398 of4480 the tree,6086 of which834 I commanded6680 thee, saying,559 Thou shalt not3808 eat398 of4480 it: cursed779 is the ground127 for thy sake;5668 in sorrow6093 shalt thou eat398 of it all3605 the days3117 of thy life;2416
18 Thorns6975 also and thistles1863 shall it bring forth6779 to thee; and thou shalt eat398 853 the herb6212 of the field;7704
19 In the sweat2188 of thy face639 shalt thou eat398 bread,3899 till5704 thou return7725 unto413 the ground;127 for3588 out of4480 it wast thou taken:3947 for3588 dust6083 thou859 art, and unto413 dust6083 shalt thou return.7725
20 And Adam121 called7121 his wife's802 name8034 Eve;2332 because3588 she1931 was1961 the mother517 of all3605 living.2416
21 Unto Adam121 also and to his wife802 did the LORD3068 God430 make6213 coats3801 of skins,5785 and clothed3847 them.
22 And the LORD3068 God430 said,559 Behold,2005 the man120 is become1961 as one259 of4480 us, to know3045 good2896 and evil:7451 and now,6258 lest6435 he put forth7971 his hand,3027 and take3947 also1571 of the tree4480 6086 of life,2416 and eat,398 and live2425 forever:5769
23 Therefore the LORD3068 God430 sent him forth7971 from the garden4480 1588 of Eden,5731 to till5647 853 the ground127 from whence4480 8033 834 he was taken.3947
24 So he drove out1644 853 the man;120 and he placed7931 at the east4480 6924 of the garden1588 of Eden5731 853 Cherubims,3742 and a flaming3858 sword2719 which turned every way,2015 to keep8104 853 the way1870 of the tree6086 of life.2416
1 And Adam121 knew3045 853 Eve2332 his wife;802 and she conceived,2029 and bore3205 853 Cain,7014 and said,559 I have gotten7069 a man376 from854 the LORD.3068
2 And she again3254 bore3205 853 his brother251 853 Abel.1893 And Abel1893 was1961 a keeper7462 of sheep,6629 but Cain7014 was1961 a tiller5647 of the ground.127
3 And in process4480 7093 of time3117 it came to pass,1961 that Cain7014 brought935 of the fruit4480 6529 of the ground127 an offering4503 unto the LORD.3068
4 And Abel,1893 he1931 also1571 brought935 of the firstlings4480 1062 of his flock6629 and of the fat4480 2459 thereof. And the LORD3068 had respect8159 unto413 Abel1893 and to413 his offering:4503
5 But unto413 Cain7014 and to413 his offering4503 he had not respect.8159 3808 And Cain7014 was very3966 wroth,2734 and his countenance6440 fell.5307
6 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Cain,7014 Why4100 art thou wroth?2734 and why4100 is thy countenance6440 fallen?5307
7 If518 thou doest well,3190 shalt thou not3808 be accepted?7613 and if518 thou doest not3808 well,3190 sin2403 lieth7257 at the door.6607 And unto413 thee shall be his desire,8669 and thou859 shalt rule4910 over him.
8 And Cain7014 talked559 with413 Abel1893 his brother:251 and it came to pass,1961 when they were1961 in the field,7704 that Cain7014 rose up6965 against413 Abel1893 his brother,251 and slew2026 him.
9 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Cain,7014 Where335 is Abel1893 thy brother?251 And he said,559 I know3045 not:3808 Am I595 my brother's251 keeper?8104
10 And he said,559 What4100 hast thou done?6213 the voice6963 of thy brother's251 blood1818 crieth6817 unto413 me from4480 the ground.127
11 And now6258 art thou859 cursed779 from4480 the earth,127 which834 hath opened6475 853 her mouth6310 to receive3947 thy brother's251 853 blood1818 from thy hand;4480 3027
12 When3588 thou tillest5647 853 the ground,127 it shall not3808 henceforth3254 yield5414 unto thee her strength;3581 a fugitive5128 and a vagabond5110 shalt thou be1961 in the earth.776
13 And Cain7014 said559 unto413 the LORD,3068 My punishment5771 is greater1419 than I can bear.4480 5375
14 Behold,2005 thou hast driven me out1644 853 this day3117 from4480 5921 the face6440 of the earth;127 and from thy face4480 6440 shall I be hid;5641 and I shall be1961 a fugitive5128 and a vagabond5110 in the earth;776 and it shall come to pass,1961 that every one3605 that findeth4672 me shall slay2026 me.
15 And the LORD3068 said559 unto him, Therefore3651 whosoever3605 slayeth2026 Cain,7014 vengeance shall be taken5358 on him sevenfold.7659 And the LORD3068 set7760 a mark226 upon Cain,7014 lest1115 any3605 finding4672 him should kill5221 him.
16 And Cain7014 went out3318 from the presence4480 6440 of the LORD,3068 and dwelt3427 in the land776 of Nod,5113 on the east6926 of Eden.5731
17 And Cain7014 knew3045 853 his wife;802 and she conceived,2029 and bore3205 853 Enoch:2585 and he built1961 1129 a city,5892 and called7121 the name8034 of the city,5892 after the name8034 of his son,1121 Enoch.2585
18 And unto Enoch2585 was born3205 853 Irad:5897 and Irad5897 begot3205 853 Mehujael:4232 and Mehujael4232 begot3205 853 Methusael:4967 and Methusael4967 begot3205 853 Lamech.3929
19 And Lamech3929 took3947 unto him two8147 wives:802 the name8034 of the one259 was Adah,5711 and the name8034 of the other8145 Zillah.6741
20 And Adah5711 bore3205 853 Jabal:2989 he1931 was1961 the father1 of such as dwell3427 in tents,168 and of such as have cattle.4735
21 And his brother's251 name8034 was Jubal:3106 he1931 was1961 the father1 of all3605 such as handle8610 the harp3658 and organ.5748
22 And Zillah,6741 she1931 also1571 bore3205 853 Tubal-cain,8423 an instructor3913 of every3605 artificer2794 in brass5178 and iron:1270 and the sister269 of Tubal-cain8423 was Naamah.5279
23 And Lamech3929 said559 unto his wives,802 Adah5711 and Zillah,6741 Hear8085 my voice;6963 ye wives802 of Lamech,3929 hearken238 unto my speech:565 for3588 I have slain2026 a man376 to my wounding,6482 and a young man3206 to my hurt.2250
24 If3588 Cain7014 shall be avenged5358 sevenfold,7659 truly Lamech3929 seventy7657 and sevenfold.7651
25 And Adam121 knew3045 853 his wife802 again;5750 and she bore3205 a son,1121 and called7121 his 853 name8034 Seth:8352 For3588 God,430 said she, hath appointed7896 me another312 seed2233 instead of8478 Abel,1893 whom Cain7014 slew.2026
26 And to Seth,8352 to him1931 also1571 there was born3205 a son;1121 and he called7121 853 his name8034 Enos:583 then227 began2490 men to call7121 upon the name8034 of the LORD.3068
1 This2088 is the book5612 of the generations8435 of Adam.121 In the day3117 that God430 created1254 man,120 in the likeness1823 of God430 made6213 he him;
2 Male2145 and female5347 created1254 he them; and blessed1288 them, and called7121 853 their name8034 Adam,121 in the day3117 when they were created.1254

23 And all3605 the days3117 of Enoch2585 were1961 three7969 hundred3967 sixty8346 and five2568 years:8141
24 And Enoch2585 walked1980 with854 God:430 and he was not;369 for3588 God430 took3947 him.
25 And Methuselah4968 lived2421 a hundred3967 eighty8084 and seven7651 years,8141 and begot3205 853 Lamech:3929
26 And Methuselah4968 lived2421 after310 he begot3205 853 Lamech3929 seven7651 hundred3967 eighty8084 and two8147 years,8141 and begot3205 sons1121 and daughters:1323

29 And he called7121 853 his name8034 Noah,5146 saying,559 This2088 same shall comfort5162 us concerning our work4480 4639 and toil4480 6093 of our hands,3027 because of4480 the ground127 which834 the LORD3068 hath cursed.779
30 And Lamech3929 lived2421 after310 he begot3205 853 Noah5146 five2568 hundred3967 ninety8673 and five2568 years,8141 and begot3205 sons1121 and daughters:1323
31 And all3605 the days3117 of Lamech3929 were1961 seven7651 hundred3967 seventy7657 and seven7651 years:8141 and he died.4191
32 And Noah5146 was1961 five2568 hundred3967 years8141 old:1121 and Noah5146 begot3205 853 Shem,8035 853 Ham,2526 and Japheth.3315
1 And it came to pass,1961 when3588 men120 began2490 to multiply7231 on5921 the face6440 of the earth,127 and daughters1323 were born3205 unto them,
2 That the sons1121 of God430 saw7200 853 the daughters1323 of men120 that3588 they2007 were fair;2896 and they took3947 them wives802 of all4480 3605 which834 they chose.977
3 And the LORD3068 said,559 My spirit7307 shall not3808 always5769 strive1777 with man,120 for that he1931 also7945 1571 is flesh:1320 yet his days3117 shall be1961 a hundred3967 and twenty6242 years.8141
4 There were1961 giants5303 in the earth776 in those1992 days;3117 and also1571 after310 that,3651 when834 the sons1121 of God430 came in935 unto413 the daughters1323 of men,120 and they bore3205 children to them, the same1992 became mighty men1368 which834 were of old,4480 5769 men376 of renown.8034
5 And GOD3068 saw7200 that3588 the wickedness7451 of man120 was great7227 in the earth,776 and that every3605 imagination3336 of the thoughts4284 of his heart3820 was only7535 evil7451 continually.3605 3117
6 And it repented5162 the LORD3068 that3588 he had made6213 853 man120 on the earth,776 and it grieved6087 him at413 his heart.3820
7 And the LORD3068 said,559 I will destroy4229 853 man120 whom834 I have created1254 from4480 5921 the face6440 of the earth;127 both man,4480 120 and5704 beast,929 and5704 the creeping thing,7431 and5704 the fowls5775 of the air;8064 for3588 it repenteth5162 me that3588 I have made6213 them.
8 But Noah5146 found4672 grace2580 in the eyes5869 of the LORD.3068
9 These428 are the generations8435 of Noah:5146 Noah5146 was1961 a just6662 man376 and perfect8549 in his generations,1755 and Noah5146 walked1980 with854 God.430
10 And Noah5146 begot3205 three7969 sons,1121 853 Shem,8035 853 Ham,2526 and Japheth.3315
11 The earth776 also was corrupt7843 before6440 God,430 and the earth776 was filled4390 with violence.2555
12 And God430 looked upon7200 853 the earth,776 and, behold,2009 it was corrupt;7843 for3588 all3605 flesh1320 had corrupted7843 853 his way1870 upon5921 the earth.776
13 And God430 said559 unto Noah,5146 The end7093 of all3605 flesh1320 is come935 before6440 me; for3588 the earth776 is filled4390 with violence2555 through them;4480 6440 and, behold,2009 I will destroy7843 them with854 the earth.776
14 Make6213 thee an ark8392 of gopher1613 wood;6086 rooms7064 shalt thou make6213 853 in the ark,8392 and shalt pitch3722 it within4480 1004 and without4480 2351 with pitch.3724
15 And this2088 is the fashion which834 thou shalt make6213 it of: The length753 of the ark8392 shall be three7969 hundred3967 cubits,520 the breadth7341 of it fifty2572 cubits,520 and the height6967 of it thirty7970 cubits.520
16 A window6672 shalt thou make6213 to the ark,8392 and in413 a cubit520 shalt thou finish3615 it above;4480 4605 and the door6607 of the ark8392 shalt thou set7760 in the side6654 thereof; with lower,8482 second,8145 and third7992 stories shalt thou make6213 it.
17 And, behold,2009 I, even I,589 do bring935 853 a flood3999 of waters4325 upon5921 the earth,776 to destroy7843 all3605 flesh,1320 wherein834 is the breath7307 of life,2416 from under4480 8478 heaven;8064 and every thing3605 that834 is in the earth776 shall die.1478
18 But with854 thee will I establish6965 853 my covenant;1285 and thou shalt come935 into413 the ark,8392 thou,859 and thy sons,1121 and thy wife,802 and thy sons'1121 wives802 with854 thee.
19 And of every4480 3605 living thing2416 of all4480 3605 flesh,1320 two8147 of every4480 3605 sort shalt thou bring935 into413 the ark,8392 to keep them alive2421 with854 thee; they shall be1961 male2145 and female.5347
20 Of fowls4480 5775 after their kind,4327 and of4480 cattle929 after their kind,4327 of every4480 3605 creeping thing7431 of the earth127 after his kind,4327 two8147 of every4480 3605 sort shall come935 unto413 thee, to keep them alive.2421
21 And take3947 thou859 unto thee of all4480 3605 food3978 that834 is eaten,398 and thou shalt gather622 it to413 thee; and it shall be1961 for food402 for thee, and for them.
22 Thus did6213 Noah;5146 according to all3605 that834 God430 commanded6680 him, so3651 did6213 he.
1 And the LORD3068 said559 unto Noah,5146 Come935 thou859 and all3605 thy house1004 into413 the ark;8392 for3588 thee have I seen7200 righteous6662 before6440 me in this2088 generation.1755
2 Of every4480 3605 clean2889 beast929 thou shalt take3947 to thee by sevens,7651 7651 the male376 and his female:802 and of4480 beasts929 that834 are not3808 clean2889 by two,8147 the male376 and his female.802
3 Of fowls4480 5775 also1571 of the air8064 by sevens,7651 7651 the male2145 and the female;5347 to keep seed2233 alive2421 upon5921 the face6440 of all3605 the earth.776
4 For3588 yet5750 seven7651 days,3117 and I595 will cause it to rain4305 upon5921 the earth776 forty705 days3117 and forty705 nights;3915 and 853 every3605 living substance3351 that834 I have made6213 will I destroy4229 from off4480 5921 the face6440 of the earth.127
5 And Noah5146 did6213 according unto all3605 that834 the LORD3068 commanded6680 him.
6 And Noah5146 was six8337 hundred3967 years8141 old1121 when the flood3999 of waters4325 was1961 upon5921 the earth.776
7 And Noah5146 went in,935 and his sons,1121 and his wife,802 and his sons'1121 wives802 with854 him, into413 the ark,8392 because4480 6440 of the waters4325 of the flood.3999
8 Of4480 clean2889 beasts,929 and of4480 beasts929 that834 are not369 clean,2889 and of4480 fowls,5775 and of every thing3605 that834 creepeth7430 upon5921 the earth,127
9 There went in935 two8147 and two8147 unto413 Noah5146 into413 the ark,8392 the male2145 and the female,5347 as834 God430 had commanded6680 853 Noah.5146
10 And it came to pass1961 after seven7651 days,3117 that the waters4325 of the flood3999 were1961 upon5921 the earth.776
11 In the six8337 hundredth3967 year8141 of Noah's5146 life,2416 in the second8145 month,2320 the seventeenth7651 6240 day3117 of the month,2320 the same2320 day3117 were all3605 the fountains4599 of the great7227 deep8415 broken up,1234 and the windows699 of heaven8064 were opened.6605
12 And the rain1653 was1961 upon5921 the earth776 forty705 days3117 and forty705 nights.3915
13 In the selfsame6106 2088 day3117 entered935 Noah,5146 and Shem,8035 and Ham,2526 and Japheth,3315 the sons1121 of Noah,5146 and Noah's5146 wife,802 and the three7969 wives802 of his sons1121 with854 them, into413 the ark;8392
14 They,1992 and every3605 beast2416 after his kind,4327 and all3605 the cattle929 after their kind,4327 and every3605 creeping thing7431 that creepeth7430 upon5921 the earth776 after his kind,4327 and every3605 fowl5775 after his kind,4327 every3605 bird6833 of every3605 sort.3671
15 And they went in935 unto413 Noah5146 into413 the ark,8392 two8147 and two8147 of all4480 3605 flesh,1320 wherein834 is the breath7307 of life.2416
16 And they that went in,935 went in935 male2145 and female5347 of all4480 3605 flesh,1320 as834 God430 had commanded6680 him: and the LORD3068 shut him in.5462 1157
17 And the flood3999 was1961 forty705 days3117 upon5921 the earth;776 and the waters4325 increased,7235 and bore up5375 853 the ark,8392 and it was lifted up7311 above4480 5921 the earth.776
18 And the waters4325 prevailed,1396 and were increased7235 greatly3966 upon5921 the earth;776 and the ark8392 went1980 upon5921 the face6440 of the waters.4325
19 And the waters4325 prevailed1396 exceedingly3966 3966 upon5921 the earth;776 and all3605 the high1364 hills,2022 that834 were under8478 the whole3605 heaven,8064 were covered.3680
20 Fifteen2568 6240 cubits520 upward4480 4605 did the waters4325 prevail;1396 and the mountains2022 were covered.3680
21 And all3605 flesh1320 died1478 that moved7430 upon5921 the earth,776 both of fowl,5775 and of cattle,929 and of beast,2416 and of every3605 creeping thing8318 that creepeth8317 upon5921 the earth,776 and every3605 man:120
22 All3605 in whose nostrils639 was the breath5397 7307 of life,2416 of all4480 3605 that834 was in the dry2724 land, died.4191
23 And 853 every3605 living substance3351 was destroyed4229 which834 was upon5921 the face6440 of the ground,127 both man,4480 120 and5704 cattle,929 and5704 the creeping things,7431 and5704 the fowl5775 of the heaven;8064 and they were destroyed4229 from4480 the earth:776 and Noah5146 only389 remained7604 alive, and they that834 were with854 him in the ark.8392
24 And the waters4325 prevailed1396 upon5921 the earth776 a hundred3967 and fifty2572 days.3117
1 And God430 remembered2142 853 Noah,5146 and every3605 living thing,2416 and all3605 the cattle929 that834 was with854 him in the ark:8392 and God430 made a wind7307 to pass5674 over5921 the earth,776 and the waters4325 assuaged;7918
2 The fountains4599 also of the deep8415 and the windows699 of heaven8064 were stopped,5534 and the rain1653 from4480 heaven8064 was restrained;3607
3 And the waters4325 returned7725 from off4480 5921 the earth776 continually:1980 7725 and after the end4480 7097 of the hundred3967 and fifty2572 days3117 the waters4325 were abated.2637
4 And the ark8392 rested5117 in the seventh7637 month,2320 on the seventeenth7651 6240 day3117 of the month,2320 upon5921 the mountains2022 of Ararat.780
5 And the waters4325 decreased2637 continually1961 1980 until5704 the tenth6224 month:2320 in the tenth6224 month, on the first259 day of the month,2320 were the tops7218 of the mountains2022 seen.7200
6 And it came to pass1961 at the end4480 7093 of forty705 days,3117 that Noah5146 opened6605 853 the window2474 of the ark8392 which834 he had made:6213
7 And he sent forth7971 853 a raven,6158 which went forth3318 to and fro,3318 7725 until5704 the waters4325 were dried up3001 from off4480 5921 the earth.776
8 Also he sent forth7971 853 a dove3123 from4480 854 him, to see7200 if the waters4325 were abated7043 from off4480 5921 the face6440 of the ground;127
9 But the dove3123 found4672 no3808 rest4494 for the sole3709 of her foot,7272 and she returned7725 unto413 him into413 the ark,8392 for3588 the waters4325 were on5921 the face6440 of the whole3605 earth:776 then he put forth7971 his hand,3027 and took3947 her, and pulled her in935 853 unto413 him into413 the ark.8392
10 And he stayed2342 yet5750 other312 seven7651 days;3117 and again3254 he sent forth7971 853 the dove3123 out of4480 the ark;8392
11 And the dove3123 came in935 to413 him in6256 the evening;6153 and, lo,2009 in her mouth6310 was an olive2132 leaf5929 plucked off:2965 so Noah5146 knew3045 that3588 the waters4325 were abated7043 from off4480 5921 the earth.776
12 And he stayed3176 yet5750 other312 seven7651 days;3117 and sent forth7971 853 the dove;3123 which returned7725 not3808 again3254 unto413 him any more.5750
13 And it came to pass1961 in the six8337 hundredth3967 and first259 year,8141 in the first7223 month, the first259 day of the month,2320 the waters4325 were dried up2717 from off4480 5921 the earth:776 and Noah5146 removed5493 853 the covering4372 of the ark,8392 and looked,7200 and, behold,2009 the face6440 of the ground127 was dry.2717
14 And in the second8145 month,2320 on the seven7651 and twentieth6242 day3117 of the month,2320 was the earth776 dried.3001
15 And God430 spoke1696 unto413 Noah,5146 saying,559
16 Go forth3318 of4480 the ark,8392 thou,859 and thy wife,802 and thy sons,1121 and thy sons'1121 wives802 with854 thee.
17 Bring forth3318 with854 thee every3605 living thing2416 that834 is with854 thee, of all4480 3605 flesh,1320 both of fowl,5775 and of cattle,929 and of every3605 creeping thing7431 that creepeth7430 upon5921 the earth;776 that they may breed abundantly8317 in the earth,776 and be fruitful,6509 and multiply7235 upon5921 the earth.776
18 And Noah5146 went forth,3318 and his sons,1121 and his wife,802 and his sons'1121 wives802 with854 him:
19 Every3605 beast,2416 every3605 creeping thing,7431 and every3605 fowl,5775 and whatsoever3605 creepeth7430 upon5921 the earth,776 after their kinds,4940 went forth3318 out of4480 the ark.8392
20 And Noah5146 built1129 an altar4196 unto the LORD;3068 and took3947 of every4480 3605 clean2889 beast,929 and of every4480 3605 clean2889 fowl,5775 and offered5927 burnt offerings5930 on the altar.4196
21 And the LORD3068 smelled7306 a sweet5207 853 savor;7381 and the LORD3068 said559 in413 his heart,3820 I will not3808 again3254 curse7043 853 the ground127 any more5750 for man's sake;5668 120 for3588 the imagination3336 of man's120 heart3820 is evil7451 from his youth;4480 5271 neither3808 will I again3254 smite5221 any more5750 853 every thing3605 living,2416 as834 I have done.6213
22 While5750 the earth776 remaineth,3605 3117 seedtime2233 and harvest,7105 and cold7120 and heat,2527 and summer7019 and winter,2779 and day3117 and night3915 shall not3808 cease.7673
1 And God430 blessed1288 853 Noah5146 and his sons,1121 and said559 unto them, Be fruitful,6509 and multiply,7235 and replenish4390 853 the earth.776
2 And the fear4172 of you and the dread2844 of you shall be1961 upon5921 every3605 beast2416 of the earth,776 and upon5921 every3605 fowl5775 of the air,8064 upon all3605 that834 moveth7430 upon the earth,127 and upon all3605 the fishes1709 of the sea;3220 into your hand3027 are they delivered.5414
3 Every3605 moving thing7431 that834 liveth2416 shall be1961 meat402 for you; even as the green3418 herb6212 have I given5414 you 853 all things.3605
4 But389 flesh1320 with the life5315 thereof, which is the blood1818 thereof, shall ye not3808 eat.398
5 And surely389 853 your blood1818 of your lives5315 will I require;1875 at the hand4480 3027 of every3605 beast2416 will I require1875 it, and at the hand4480 3027 of man;120 at the hand4480 3027 of every man's376 brother251 will I require1875 853 the life5315 of man.120
6 Whoso sheddeth8210 man's120 blood,1818 by man120 shall his blood1818 be shed:8210 for3588 in the image6754 of God430 made6213 he 853 man.120
7 And you,859 be ye fruitful,6509 and multiply;7235 bring forth abundantly8317 in the earth,776 and multiply7235 therein.
8 And God430 spoke559 unto413 Noah,5146 and to413 his sons1121 with854 him, saying,559
9 And I,589 behold,2009 I establish6965 853 my covenant1285 with854 you, and with854 your seed2233 after310 you;
10 And with854 every3605 living2416 creature5315 that834 is with854 you, of the fowl,5775 of the cattle,929 and of every3605 beast2416 of the earth776 with854 you; from all4480 3605 that go out3318 of the ark,8392 to every3605 beast2416 of the earth.776
11 And I will establish6965 853 my covenant1285 with854 you; neither3808 shall all3605 flesh1320 be cut off3772 any more5750 by the waters4480 4325 of a flood;3999 neither3808 shall there any more5750 be1961 a flood3999 to destroy7843 the earth.776
12 And God430 said,559 This2063 is the token226 of the covenant1285 which834 I589 make5414 between996 me and you and every3605 living2416 creature5315 that834 is with854 you, for perpetual5769 generations:1755
13 I do set5414 853 my bow7198 in the cloud,6051 and it shall be1961 for a token226 of a covenant1285 between996 me and the earth.776
14 And it shall come to pass,1961 when I bring6049 a cloud6051 over5921 the earth,776 that the bow7198 shall be seen7200 in the cloud:6051
15 And I will remember2142 853 my covenant,1285 which834 is between996 me and you and every3605 living2416 creature5315 of all3605 flesh;1320 and the waters4325 shall no3808 more5750 become1961 a flood3999 to destroy7843 all3605 flesh.1320
16 And the bow7198 shall be1961 in the cloud;6051 and I will look upon7200 it, that I may remember2142 the everlasting5769 covenant1285 between996 God430 and every3605 living2416 creature5315 of all3605 flesh1320 that834 is upon5921 the earth.776
17 And God430 said559 unto413 Noah,5146 This2063 is the token226 of the covenant,1285 which834 I have established6965 between996 me and all3605 flesh1320 that834 is upon5921 the earth.776
18 And the sons1121 of Noah,5146 that went forth3318 of4480 the ark,8392 were1961 Shem,8035 and Ham,2526 and Japheth:3315 and Ham2526 is the father1 of Canaan.3667
19 These428 are the three7969 sons1121 of Noah:5146 and of them4480 428 was the whole3605 earth776 overspread.5310
20 And Noah5146 began2490 to be an husbandman,376 127 and he planted5193 a vineyard:3754
21 And he drank8354 of4480 the wine,3196 and was drunken;7937 and he was uncovered1540 within8432 his tent.168
22 And Ham,2526 the father1 of Canaan,3667 saw7200 853 the nakedness6172 of his father,1 and told5046 his two8147 brethren251 without.2351
23 And Shem8035 and Japheth3315 took3947 853 a garment,8071 and laid7760 it upon5921 both8147 their shoulders,7926 and went1980 backward,322 and covered3680 853 the nakedness6172 of their father;1 and their faces6440 were backward,322 and they saw7200 not3808 their father's1 nakedness.6172
24 And Noah5146 awoke3364 from his wine,4480 3196 and knew3045 853 what834 his younger6996 son1121 had done6213 unto him.
25 And he said,559 Cursed779 be Canaan;3667 a servant5650 of servants5650 shall he be1961 unto his brethren.251
26 And he said,559 Blessed1288 be the LORD3068 God430 of Shem;8035 and Canaan3667 shall be1961 his servant.5650
27 God430 shall enlarge6601 Japheth,3315 and he shall dwell7931 in the tents168 of Shem;8035 and Canaan3667 shall be1961 his servant.5650
28 And Noah5146 lived2421 after310 the flood3999 three7969 hundred3967 and fifty2572 years.8141
29 And all3605 the days3117 of Noah5146 were1961 nine8672 hundred3967 and fifty2572 years:8141 and he died.4191
1 Now these428 are the generations8435 of the sons1121 of Noah,5146 Shem,8035 Ham,2526 and Japheth:3315 and unto them were sons1121 born3205 after310 the flood.3999
2 The sons1121 of Japheth;3315 Gomer,1586 and Magog,4031 and Madai,4074 and Javan,3120 and Tubal,8422 and Meshech,4902 and Tiras.8494
3 And the sons1121 of Gomer;1586 Ashkenaz,813 and Riphath,7384 and Togarmah.8425
4 And the sons1121 of Javan;3120 Elishah,473 and Tarshish,8659 Kittim,3794 and Dodanim.1721
5 By these4480 428 were the isles339 of the Gentiles1471 divided6504 in their lands;776 every one376 after his tongue,3956 after their families,4940 in their nations.1471
6 And the sons1121 of Ham;2526 Cush,3568 and Mizraim,4714 and Phut,6316 and Canaan.3667
7 And the sons1121 of Cush;3568 Seba,5434 and Havilah,2341 and Sabtah,5454 and Raamah,7484 and Sabtecha:5455 and the sons1121 of Raamah;7484 Sheba,7614 and Dedan.1719
8 And Cush3568 begot3205 853 Nimrod:5248 he1931 began2490 to be1961 a mighty one1368 in the earth.776
9 He1931 was1961 a mighty1368 hunter6718 before6440 the LORD:3068 wherefore5921 3651 it is said,559 Even as Nimrod5248 the mighty1368 hunter6718 before6440 the LORD.3068
10 And the beginning7225 of his kingdom4467 was1961 Babel,894 and Erech,751 and Accad,390 and Calneh,3641 in the land776 of Shinar.8152
11 Out of4480 that1931 land776 went forth3318 Asshur,804 and built1129 853 Nineveh,5210 and the city5892 Rehoboth,7344 and Calah,3625
12 And Resen7449 between996 Nineveh5210 and Calah:3625 the same1931 is a great1419 city.5892
13 And Mizraim4714 begot3205 853 Ludim,3866 and Anamim,6047 and Lehabim,3853 and Naphtuhim,5320
14 And Pathrusim,6625 and Casluhim,3695 (out of whom4480 8033 834 came3318 Philistim,)6430 and Caphtorim.3732
15 And Canaan3667 begot3205 853 Sidon6721 his firstborn,1060 and Heth,2845
16 And the Jebusite,2983 and the Amorite,567 and the Girgasite,1622
17 And the Hivite,2340 and the Arkite,6208 and the Sinite,5513
18 And the Arvadite,721 and the Zemarite,6786 and the Hamathite:2577 and afterward310 were the families4940 of the Canaanites3669 spread abroad.6327
19 And the border1366 of the Canaanites3669 was1961 from Sidon,4480 6721 as thou comest935 to Gerar,1642 unto5704 Gaza;5804 as thou goest,935 unto Sodom,5467 and Gomorrah,6017 and Admah,126 and Zeboim,6636 even unto5704 Lasha.3962
20 These428 are the sons1121 of Ham,2526 after their families,4940 after their tongues,3956 in their countries,776 and in their nations.1471
21 Unto Shem8035 also the father1 of all3605 the children1121 of Eber,5677 the brother251 of Japheth3315 the elder,1419 even1571 to him1931 were children born.3205
22 The children1121 of Shem;8035 Elam,5867 and Asshur,804 and Arphaxad,775 and Lud,3865 and Aram.758
23 And the children1121 of Aram;758 Uz,5780 and Hul,2343 and Gether,1666 and Mash.4851
24 And Arphaxad775 begot3205 853 Salah;7974 and Salah7974 begot3205 853 Eber.5677
25 And unto Eber5677 were born3205 two8147 sons:1121 the name8034 of one259 was Peleg;6389 for3588 in his days3117 was the earth776 divided;6385 and his brother's251 name8034 was Joktan.3355
26 And Joktan3355 begot3205 853 Almodad,486 and Sheleph,8026 and Hazarmaveth,2700 and Jerah,3392
27 And Hadoram,1913 and Uzal,187 and Diklah,1853
28 And Obal,5745 and Abimael,39 and Sheba,7614
29 And Ophir,211 and Havilah,2341 and Jobab:3103 all3605 these428 were the sons1121 of Joktan.3355
30 And their dwelling4186 was1961 from Mesha,4480 4852 as thou goest935 unto Sephar5611 a mount2022 of the east.6924
31 These428 are the sons1121 of Shem,8035 after their families,4940 after their tongues,3956 in their lands,776 after their nations.1471
32 These428 are the families4940 of the sons1121 of Noah,5146 after their generations,8435 in their nations:1471 and by these4480 428 were the nations1471 divided6504 in the earth776 after310 the flood.3999
1 And the whole3605 earth776 was1961 of one259 language,8193 and of one259 speech.1697
2 And it came to pass,1961 as they journeyed5265 from the east,4480 6924 that they found4672 a plain1237 in the land776 of Shinar;8152 and they dwelt3427 there.8033
3 And they said559 one376 to413 another,7453 Go to,3051 let us make3835 brick,3843 and burn8313 them throughly.8316 And they had1961 brick3843 for stone,68 and slime2564 had1961 they for mortar.2563
4 And they said,559 Go to,3051 let us build1129 us a city5892 and a tower,4026 whose top7218 may reach unto heaven;8064 and let us make6213 us a name,8034 lest6435 we be scattered abroad6327 upon5921 the face6440 of the whole3605 earth.776
5 And the LORD3068 came down3381 to see7200 853 the city5892 and the tower,4026 which834 the children1121 of men120 built.1129
6 And the LORD3068 said,559 Behold,2005 the people5971 is one,259 and they have all3605 one259 language;8193 and this2088 they begin2490 to do:6213 and now6258 nothing3808 3605 will be restrained1219 from4480 them, which834 they have imagined2161 to do.6213
7 Go to,3051 let us go down,3381 and there8033 confound1101 their language,8193 that834 they may not3808 understand8085 one376 another's7453 speech.8193
8 So the LORD3068 scattered them abroad6327 853 from thence4480 8033 upon5921 the face6440 of all3605 the earth:776 and they left off2308 to build1129 the city.5892
9 Therefore5921 3651 is the name8034 of it called7121 Babel;894 because3588 the LORD3068 did there8033 confound1101 the language8193 of all3605 the earth:776 and from thence4480 8033 did the LORD3068 scatter them abroad6327 upon5921 the face6440 of all3605 the earth.776
10 These428 are the generations8435 of Shem:8035 Shem8035 was a hundred3967 years8141 old,1121 and begot3205 853 Arphaxad775 two years8141 after310 the flood:3999
11 And Shem8035 lived2421 after310 he begot3205 853 Arphaxad775 five2568 hundred3967 years,8141 and begot3205 sons1121 and daughters.1323
12 And Arphaxad775 lived2425 five2568 and thirty7970 years,8141 and begot3205 853 Salah:7974
13 And Arphaxad775 lived2421 after310 he begot3205 853 Salah7974 four702 hundred3967 and three7969 years,8141 and begot3205 sons1121 and daughters.1323
14 And Salah7974 lived2425 thirty7970 years,8141 and begot3205 853 Eber:5677
15 And Salah7974 lived2421 after310 he begot3205 853 Eber5677 four702 hundred3967 and three7969 years,8141 and begot3205 sons1121 and daughters.1323
16 And Eber5677 lived2421 four702 and thirty7970 years,8141 and begot3205 853 Peleg:6389
17 And Eber5677 lived2421 after310 he begot3205 853 Peleg6389 four702 hundred3967 and thirty7970 years,8141 and begot3205 sons1121 and daughters.1323
18 And Peleg6389 lived2421 thirty7970 years,8141 and begot3205 853 Reu:7466
19 And Peleg6389 lived2421 after310 he begot3205 853 Reu7466 two hundred3967 and nine8672 years,8141 and begot3205 sons1121 and daughters.1323
20 And Reu7466 lived2421 two8147 and thirty7970 years,8141 and begot3205 853 Serug:8286
21 And Reu7466 lived2421 after310 he begot3205 853 Serug8286 two hundred3967 and seven7651 years,8141 and begot3205 sons1121 and daughters.1323
22 And Serug8286 lived2421 thirty7970 years,8141 and begot3205 853 Nahor:5152
23 And Serug8286 lived2421 after310 he begot3205 853 Nahor5152 two hundred3967 years,8141 and begot3205 sons1121 and daughters.1323
24 And Nahor5152 lived2421 nine8672 and twenty6242 years,8141 and begot3205 853 Terah:8646
25 And Nahor5152 lived2421 after310 he begot3205 853 Terah8646 a hundred3967 and nineteen8672 6240 years,8141 and begot3205 sons1121 and daughters.1323
26 And Terah8646 lived2421 seventy7657 years,8141 and begot3205 853 Abram,87 853 Nahor,5152 and Haran.2039
27 Now these428 are the generations8435 of Terah:8646 Terah8646 begot3205 853 Abram,87 853 Nahor,5152 and Haran;2039 and Haran2039 begot3205 853 Lot.3876
28 And Haran2039 died4191 before5921 6440 his father1 Terah8646 in the land776 of his nativity,4138 in Ur218 of the Chaldees.3778
29 And Abram87 and Nahor5152 took3947 them wives:802 the name8034 of Abram's87 wife802 was Sarai;8297 and the name8034 of Nahor's5152 wife,802 Milcah,4435 the daughter1323 of Haran,2039 the father1 of Milcah,4435 and the father1 of Iscah.3252
30 But Sarai8297 was1961 barren;6135 she had no369 child.2056
31 And Terah8646 took3947 853 Abram87 his son,1121 and Lot3876 the son1121 of Haran2039 his son's1121 son,1121 and Sarai8297 his daughter-in-law,3618 his son1121 Abram's87 wife;802 and they went forth3318 with854 them from Ur4480 218 of the Chaldees,3778 to go1980 into the land776 of Canaan;3667 and they came935 unto5704 Haran,2771 and dwelt3427 there.8033
32 And the days3117 of Terah8646 were1961 two hundred3967 and five2568 years:8141 and Terah8646 died4191 in Haran.2771
1 Now the LORD3068 had said559 unto413 Abram,87 Get thee out1980 of thy country,4480 776 and from thy kindred,4480 4138 and from thy father's house,4480 1004 1 unto413 a land776 that834 I will show7200 thee:
2 And I will make6213 of thee a great1419 nation,1471 and I will bless1288 thee, and make thy name great;1431 8034 and thou shalt be1961 a blessing:1293
3 And I will bless1288 them that bless1288 thee, and curse779 him that curseth7043 thee: and in thee shall all3605 families4940 of the earth127 be blessed.1288
4 So Abram87 departed,1980 as834 the LORD3068 had spoken1696 unto413 him; and Lot3876 went1980 with854 him: and Abram87 was seventy7657 and five2568 years8141 old1121 when he departed3318 out of Haran.4480 2771
5 And Abram87 took3947 853 Sarai8297 his wife,802 and Lot3876 his brother's251 son,1121 and all3605 their substance7399 that834 they had gathered,7408 and the souls5315 that834 they had gotten6213 in Haran;2771 and they went forth3318 to go1980 into the land776 of Canaan;3667 and into the land776 of Canaan3667 they came.935
6 And Abram87 passed through5674 the land776 unto5704 the place4725 of Sichem,7927 unto5704 the plain436 of Moreh.4176 And the Canaanite3669 was then227 in the land.776
7 And the LORD3068 appeared7200 unto413 Abram,87 and said,559 Unto thy seed2233 will I give5414 853 this2063 land:776 and there8033 built1129 he an altar4196 unto the LORD,3068 who appeared7200 unto413 him.
8 And he removed6275 from thence4480 8033 unto a mountain2022 on the east4480 6924 of Bethel,1008 and pitched5186 his tent,168 having Bethel1008 on the west,4480 3220 and Hai5857 on the east:4480 6924 and there8033 he built1129 an altar4196 unto the LORD,3068 and called7121 upon the name8034 of the LORD.3068
9 And Abram87 journeyed,5265 going on1980 still5265 toward the south.5045
10 And there was1961 a famine7458 in the land:776 and Abram87 went down3381 into Egypt4714 to sojourn1481 there;8033 for3588 the famine7458 was grievous3515 in the land.776
11 And it came to pass,1961 when834 he was come near7126 to enter935 into Egypt,4714 that he said559 unto413 Sarai8297 his wife,802 Behold2009 now,4994 I know3045 that3588 thou859 art a fair3303 woman802 to look upon:4758
12 Therefore it shall come to pass,1961 when3588 the Egyptians4713 shall see7200 thee, that they shall say,559 This2063 is his wife:802 and they will kill2026 me, but they will save thee alive.2421
13 Say,559 I pray thee,4994 thou859 art my sister:269 that4616 it may be well3190 with me for thy sake;5668 and my soul5315 shall live2421 because of1558 thee.
14 And it came to pass,1961 that, when Abram87 was come935 into Egypt,4714 the Egyptians4713 beheld7200 853 the woman802 that3588 she1931 was very3966 fair.3303
15 The princes8269 also of Pharaoh6547 saw7200 her, and commended1984 her before413 Pharaoh:6547 and the woman802 was taken3947 into Pharaoh's6547 house.1004
16 And he entreated Abram well3190 87 for her sake:5668 and he had1961 sheep,6629 and oxen,1241 and he asses,2543 and menservants,5650 and maidservants,8198 and she asses,860 and camels.1581
17 And the LORD3068 plagued5060 853 Pharaoh6547 and his house1004 with great1419 plagues5061 because of5921 1697 Sarai8297 Abram's87 wife.802
18 And Pharaoh6547 called7121 Abram,87 and said,559 What4100 is this2063 that thou hast done6213 unto me? why4100 didst thou not3808 tell5046 me that3588 she1931 was thy wife?802
19 Why4100 saidst559 thou, She1931 is my sister?269 so I might have taken3947 her to me to wife:802 now therefore6258 behold2009 thy wife,802 take3947 her, and go thy way.1980
20 And Pharaoh6547 commanded6680 his men376 concerning5921 him: and they sent him away,7971 853 and his wife,802 and all3605 that834 he had.
1 And Abram87 went up5927 out of Egypt,4480 4714 he,1931 and his wife,802 and all3605 that834 he had, and Lot3876 with5973 him, into the south.5045
2 And Abram87 was very3966 rich3515 in cattle,4735 in silver,3701 and in gold.2091
3 And he went1980 on his journeys4550 from the south4480 5045 even to5704 Bethel,1008 unto5704 the place4725 where834 8033 his tent168 had been1961 at the beginning,8462 between996 Bethel1008 and Hai;5857
4 Unto413 the place4725 of the altar,4196 which834 he had made6213 there8033 at the first:7223 and there8033 Abram87 called7121 on the name8034 of the LORD.3068
5 And Lot3876 also,1571 which went1980 with854 Abram,87 had1961 flocks,6629 and herds,1241 and tents.168
6 And the land776 was not3808 able to bear5375 them, that they might dwell3427 together:3162 for3588 their substance7399 was1961 great,7227 so that they could3201 not3808 dwell3427 together.3162
7 And there was1961 a strife7379 between996 the herdsmen7462 of Abram's87 cattle4735 and the herdsmen7462 of Lot's3876 cattle:4735 and the Canaanite3669 and the Perizzite6522 dwelled3427 then227 in the land.776
8 And Abram87 said559 unto413 Lot,3876 Let there be1961 no408 strife,4808 I pray thee,4994 between996 me and thee, and between996 my herdsmen7462 and thy herdsmen;7462 for3588 we587 be brethren.251
9 Is not3808 the whole3605 land776 before6440 thee? separate thyself,6504 I pray thee,4994 from4480 5921 me: if518 thou wilt take the left hand,8040 then I will go to the right;3231 or if518 thou depart to the right hand,3225 then I will go to the left.8041
10 And Lot3876 lifted up5375 853 his eyes,5869 and beheld7200 853 all3605 the plain3603 of Jordan,3383 that3588 it was well watered4945 every where,3605 before6440 the LORD3068 destroyed7843 853 Sodom5467 and Gomorrah,6017 even as the garden1588 of the LORD,3068 like the land776 of Egypt,4714 as thou comest935 unto Zoar.6820
11 Then Lot3876 chose977 him 853 all3605 the plain3603 of Jordan;3383 and Lot3876 journeyed5265 east:4480 6924 and they separated themselves6504 the one376 from4480 5921 the other.251
12 Abram87 dwelled3427 in the land776 of Canaan,3667 and Lot3876 dwelled3427 in the cities5892 of the plain,3603 and pitched his tent167 toward5704 Sodom.5467
13 But the men376 of Sodom5467 were wicked7451 and sinners2400 before the LORD3068 exceedingly.3966
14 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Abram,87 after that310 Lot3876 was separated6504 from4480 5973 him, Lift up5375 now4994 thine eyes,5869 and look7200 from4480 the place4725 where834 8033 thou859 art northward,6828 and southward,5045 and eastward,6924 and westward:3220
15 For3588 853 all3605 the land776 which834 thou859 seest,7200 to thee will I give5414 it, and to thy seed2233 forever.5704 5769
16 And I will make7760 853 thy seed2233 as the dust6083 of the earth:776 so that834 if518 a man376 can3201 number4487 853 the dust6083 of the earth,776 then shall thy seed2233 also1571 be numbered.4487
17 Arise,6965 walk1980 through the land776 in the length753 of it and in the breadth7341 of it; for3588 I will give5414 it unto thee.
18 Then Abram87 removed his tent,167 and came935 and dwelt3427 in the plain436 of Mamre,4471 which834 is in Hebron,2275 and built1129 there8033 an altar4196 unto the LORD.3068
1 And it came to pass1961 in the days3117 of Amraphel569 king4428 of Shinar,8152 Arioch746 king4428 of Ellasar,495 Chedorlaomer3540 king4428 of Elam,5867 and Tidal8413 king4428 of nations;1471
2 That these made6213 war4421 with854 Bera1298 king4428 of Sodom,5467 and with854 Birsha1306 king4428 of Gomorrah,6017 Shinab8134 king4428 of Admah,126 and Shemeber8038 king4428 of Zeboiim,6636 and the king4428 of Bela,1106 which1931 is Zoar.6820
3 All3605 these428 were joined together2266 in413 the vale6010 of Siddim,7708 which1931 is the salt4417 sea.3220
4 Twelve8147 6240 years8141 they served5647 853 Chedorlaomer,3540 and in the thirteenth7969 6240 year8141 they rebelled.4775
5 And in the fourteenth702 6240 year8141 came935 Chedorlaomer,3540 and the kings4428 that834 were with854 him, and smote5221 853 the Rephaims7497 in Ashteroth Karnaim,6255 and the Zuzims2104 in Ham,1990 and the Emims368 in Shaveh Kiriathaim,7741
6 And the Horites2752 in their mount2042 Seir,8165 unto5704 El-paran,364 which834 is by5921 the wilderness.4057
7 And they returned,7725 and came935 to413 En-mishpat,5880 which1931 is Kadesh,6946 and smote5221 853 all3605 the country7704 of the Amalekites,6003 and also1571 853 the Amorites,567 that dwelt3427 in Hazezon-tamar.2688
8 And there went out3318 the king4428 of Sodom,5467 and the king4428 of Gomorrah,6017 and the king4428 of Admah,126 and the king4428 of Zeboiim,6636 and the king4428 of Bela1106 (the same1931 is Zoar)6820 and they joined6186 battle4421 with854 them in the vale6010 of Siddim;7708
9 With854 Chedorlaomer3540 the king4428 of Elam,5867 and with Tidal8413 king4428 of nations,1471 and Amraphel569 king4428 of Shinar,8152 and Arioch746 king4428 of Ellasar;495 four702 kings4428 with854 five.2568
10 And the vale6010 of Siddim7708 was full of slime pits;875 875 2564 and the kings4428 of Sodom5467 and Gomorrah6017 fled,5127 and fell5307 there;8033 and they that remained7604 fled5127 to the mountain.2022
11 And they took3947 853 all3605 the goods7399 of Sodom5467 and Gomorrah,6017 and all3605 their victuals,400 and went their way.1980
12 And they took3947 853 Lot,3876 Abram's87 brother's251 son,1121 who1931 dwelt3427 in Sodom,5467 and his goods,7399 and departed.1980
13 And there came935 one that had escaped,6412 and told5046 Abram87 the Hebrew;5680 for he1931 dwelt7931 in the plain436 of Mamre4471 the Amorite,567 brother251 of Eshcol,812 and brother251 of Aner:6063 and these1992 were confederate1167 1285 with Abram.87
14 And when Abram87 heard8085 that3588 his brother251 was taken captive,7617 he armed7324 853 his trained2593 servants, born3211 in his own house,1004 three7969 hundred3967 and eighteen,8083 6240 and pursued7291 them unto5704 Dan.1835
15 And he divided himself2505 against5921 them, he1931 and his servants,5650 by night,3915 and smote5221 them, and pursued7291 them unto5704 Hobah,2327 which834 is on the left hand4480 8040 of Damascus.1834
16 And he brought back7725 853 all3605 the goods,7399 and also1571 brought again7725 his brother251 853 Lot,3876 and his goods,7399 and 853 the women802 also,1571 and the people.5971
17 And the king4428 of Sodom5467 went out3318 to meet7125 him after310 his return7725 from the slaughter4480 5221 of 853 Chedorlaomer,3540 and of the kings4428 that834 were with854 him, at413 the valley6010 of Shaveh,7740 which1931 is the king's4428 dale.6010
18 And Melchizedek4442 king4428 of Salem8004 brought forth3318 bread3899 and wine:3196 and he1931 was the priest3548 of the most high5945 God.410
19 And he blessed1288 him, and said,559 Blessed1288 be Abram87 of the most high5945 God,410 possessor7069 of heaven8064 and earth:776
20 And blessed1288 be the most high5945 God,410 which834 hath delivered4042 thine enemies6862 into thy hand.3027 And he gave5414 him tithes4643 of all.4480 3605
21 And the king4428 of Sodom5467 said559 unto413 Abram,87 Give5414 me the persons,5315 and take3947 the goods7399 to thyself.
22 And Abram87 said559 to413 the king4428 of Sodom,5467 I have lifted up7311 mine hand3027 unto413 the LORD,3068 the most high5945 God,410 the possessor7069 of heaven8064 and earth,776
23 That I will not518 take from a thread4480 2339 even to5704 to a shoelatchet,8288 5275 and that I will not518 take3947 any thing4480 3605 that834 is thine, lest3808 thou shouldest say,559 I589 have made Abram rich:6238 853 87
24 Save1107 only7535 that which834 the young men5288 have eaten,398 and the portion2506 of the men376 which834 went1980 with854 me, Aner,6063 Eshcol,812 and Mamre;4471 let them1992 take3947 their portion.2506
1 After310 these428 things1697 the word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 unto413 Abram87 in a vision,4236 saying,559 Fear3372 not,408 Abram:87 I595 am thy shield,4043 and thy exceeding3966 great7235 reward.7939
2 And Abram87 said,559 Lord136 GOD,3069 what4100 wilt thou give5414 me, seeing I595 go1980 childless,6185 and the steward1121 4943 of my house1004 is this1931 Eliezer461 of Damascus?1834
3 And Abram87 said,559 Behold,2005 to me thou hast given5414 no3808 seed:2233 and, lo,2009 one born1121 in my house1004 is mine heir.3423
4 And, behold,2009 the word1697 of the LORD3068 came unto413 him, saying,559 This2088 shall not3808 be thine heir;3423 but3588 518 he that834 shall come forth3318 out of thine own bowels4480 4578 shall be thine heir.3423
5 And he brought him forth3318 853 abroad,2351 and said,559 Look5027 now4994 toward heaven,8064 and tell5608 the stars,3556 if518 thou be able3201 to number5608 them: and he said559 unto him, So3541 shall thy seed2233 be.1961
6 And he believed539 in the LORD;3068 and he counted2803 it to him for righteousness.6666
7 And he said559 unto413 him, I589 am the LORD3068 that834 brought3318 thee out of Ur4480 218 of the Chaldees,3778 to give5414 thee 853 this2063 land776 to inherit3423 it.
8 And he said,559 Lord136 GOD,3069 whereby4100 shall I know3045 that3588 I shall inherit3423 it?
9 And he said559 unto413 him, Take3947 me an heifer5697 of three years old,8027 and a she goat5795 of three years old,8027 and a ram352 of three years old,8027 and a turtledove,8449 and a young pigeon.1469
10 And he took3947 unto him 853 all3605 these,428 and divided1334 them in the midst,8432 and laid5414 each376 piece1335 one against7125 another:7453 but the birds6833 divided1334 he not.3808
11 And when the fowls5861 came down3381 upon5921 the carcasses,6297 Abram87 drove them away.5380 853
12 And when the sun8121 was going down,935 a deep sleep8639 fell5307 upon5921 Abram;87 and, lo,2009 a horror367 of great1419 darkness2825 fell5307 upon5921 him.
13 And he said559 unto Abram,87 Know of a surety3045 3045 that3588 thy seed2233 shall be1961 a stranger1616 in a land776 that is not3808 theirs, and shall serve5647 them; and they shall afflict6031 them four702 hundred3967 years;8141
14 And also1571 853 that nation,1471 whom834 they shall serve,5647 will I595 judge:1777 and afterward310 3651 shall they come out3318 with great1419 substance.7399
15 And thou859 shalt go935 to413 thy fathers1 in peace;7965 thou shalt be buried6912 in a good2896 old age.7872
16 But in the fourth7243 generation1755 they shall come hither again:7725 2008 for3588 the iniquity5771 of the Amorites567 is not3808 yet5704 2008 full.8003
17 And it came to pass,1961 that, when the sun8121 went down,935 and it was1961 dark,5939 behold2009 a smoking6227 furnace,8574 and a burning784 lamp3940 that834 passed5674 between996 those428 pieces.1506
18 In the same1931 day3117 the LORD3068 made3772 a covenant1285 with854 Abram,87 saying,559 Unto thy seed2233 have I given5414 this2063 853 land,776 from the river4480 5104 of Egypt4714 unto5704 the great1419 river,5104 the river5104 Euphrates:6578
19 853 The Kenites,7017 and the Kenizzites,7074 and the Kadmonites,6935
20 And the Hittites,2850 and the Perizzites,6522 and the Rephaims,7497
21 And the Amorites,567 and the Canaanites,3669 and the Girgashites,1622 and the Jebusites.2983
1 Now Sarai8297 Abram's87 wife802 bore him no children:3205 3808 and she had an handmaid,8198 an Egyptian,4713 whose name8034 was Hagar.1904
2 And Sarai8297 said559 unto413 Abram,87 Behold2009 now,4994 the LORD3068 hath restrained6113 me from bearing:4480 3205 I pray thee,4994 go in935 unto413 my maid;8198 it may be194 that I may obtain children1129 by4480 her. And Abram87 hearkened8085 to the voice6963 of Sarai.8297
3 And Sarai8297 Abram's87 wife802 took3947 853 Hagar1904 her maid8198 the Egyptian,4713 after4480 7093 Abram87 had dwelt3427 ten6235 years8141 in the land776 of Canaan,3667 and gave5414 her to her husband376 Abram87 to be his wife.802
4 And he went in935 unto413 Hagar,1904 and she conceived:2029 and when she saw7200 that3588 she had conceived,2029 her mistress1404 was despised7043 in her eyes.5869
5 And Sarai8297 said559 unto413 Abram,87 My wrong2555 be upon5921 thee: I595 have given5414 my maid8198 into thy bosom;2436 and when she saw7200 that3588 she had conceived,2029 I was despised7043 in her eyes:5869 the LORD3068 judge8199 between996 me and thee.
6 But Abram87 said559 unto413 Sarai,8297 Behold,2009 thy maid8198 is in thy hand;3027 do6213 to her as it pleaseth2896 5869 thee. And when Sarai8297 dealt hardly6031 with her, she fled1272 from her face.4480 6440
7 And the angel4397 of the LORD3068 found4672 her by5921 a fountain5869 of water4325 in the wilderness,4057 by5921 the fountain5869 in the way1870 to Shur.7793
8 And he said,559 Hagar,1904 Sarai's8297 maid,8198 whence335 4480 2088 camest935 thou? and whither575 wilt thou go?1980 And she said,559 I595 flee1272 from the face4480 6440 of my mistress1404 Sarai.8297
9 And the angel4397 of the LORD3068 said559 unto her, Return7725 to413 thy mistress,1404 and submit thyself6031 under8478 her hands.3027
10 And the angel4397 of the LORD3068 said559 unto her, I will multiply thy seed exceedingly,7235 7235 853 2233 that it shall not3808 be numbered5608 for multitude.4480 7230
11 And the angel4397 of the LORD3068 said559 unto her, Behold,2009 thou art with child,2030 and shalt bear3205 a son,1121 and shalt call7121 his name8034 Ishmael;3458 because3588 the LORD3068 hath heard8085 413 thy affliction.6040
12 And he1931 will be1961 a wild6501 man;120 his hand3027 will be against every man,3605 and every man's3605 hand3027 against him; and he shall dwell7931 in the presence5921 6440 of all3605 his brethren.251
13 And she called7121 the name8034 of the LORD3068 that spoke1696 unto413 her, Thou859 God410 seest7210 me: for3588 she said,559 Have I also1571 here1988 looked7200 after310 him that seeth7200 me?
14 Wherefore5921 3651 the well875 was called7121 Beer-lahai-roi;883 behold,2009 it is between996 Kadesh6946 and Bered.1260
15 And Hagar1904 bore3205 Abram87 a son:1121 and Abram87 called7121 his son's1121 name,8034 which834 Hagar1904 bore,3205 Ishmael.3458
16 And Abram87 was fourscore8084 and six8337 years8141 old,1121 when Hagar1904 bore3205 853 Ishmael3458 to Abram.87
1 And when Abram87 was1961 ninety8673 years8141 old1121 and nine,8672 the LORD3068 appeared7200 to413 Abram,87 and said559 unto413 him, I589 am the Almighty7706 God;410 walk1980 before6440 me, and be1961 thou perfect.8549
2 And I will make5414 my covenant1285 between996 me and thee, and will multiply7235 thee exceedingly.3966 3966
3 And Abram87 fell5307 on5921 his face:6440 and God430 talked1696 with854 him, saying,559
4 As for me,589 behold,2009 my covenant1285 is with854 thee, and thou shalt be1961 a father1 of many1995 nations.1471
5 Neither3808 shall 853 thy name8034 any more5750 be called7121 Abram,87 but thy name8034 shall be1961 Abraham;85 for3588 a father1 of many1995 nations1471 have I made5414 thee.
6 And I will make thee exceeding3966 3966 fruitful,6509 and I will make5414 nations1471 of thee, and kings4428 shall come out3318 of4480 thee.
7 And I will establish6965 853 my covenant1285 between996 me and thee and thy seed2233 after310 thee in their generations1755 for an everlasting5769 covenant,1285 to be1961 a God430 unto thee, and to thy seed2233 after310 thee.
8 And I will give5414 unto thee, and to thy seed2233 after310 thee, 853 the land776 wherein thou art a stranger,4033 853 all3605 the land776 of Canaan,3667 for an everlasting5769 possession;272 and I will be1961 their God.430
9 And God430 said559 unto413 Abraham,85 Thou859 shalt keep8104 853 my covenant1285 therefore, thou,859 and thy seed2233 after310 thee in their generations.1755
10 This2063 is my covenant,1285 which834 ye shall keep,8104 between996 me and you and thy seed2233 after310 thee; Every3605 man child2145 among you shall be circumcised.4135
11 And ye shall circumcise4135 853 the flesh1320 of your foreskin;6190 and it shall be1961 a token226 of the covenant1285 between996 me and you.
12 And he that is eight8083 days3117 old1121 shall be circumcised4135 among you, every3605 man child2145 in your generations,1755 he that is born3211 in the house,1004 or bought4736 with money3701 of any4480 3605 stranger,1121 5236 which834 is not3808 of thy seed.4480 2233
13 He that is born3211 in thy house,1004 and he that is bought4736 with thy money,3701 must needs be circumcised:4135 4135 and my covenant1285 shall be1961 in your flesh1320 for an everlasting5769 covenant.1285
14 And the uncircumcised6189 man child2145 whose834 853 flesh1320 of his foreskin6190 is not3808 circumcised,4135 that1931 soul5315 shall be cut off3772 from his people;4480 5971 he hath broken6565 853 my covenant.1285
15 And God430 said559 unto413 Abraham,85 As for Sarai8297 thy wife,802 thou shalt not3808 call7121 853 her name8034 Sarai,8297 but3588 Sarah8283 shall her name8034 be.
16 And I will bless1288 her, and give5414 thee a son1121 also1571 of4480 her: yea, I will bless1288 her, and she shall be1961 a mother of nations;1471 kings4428 of people5971 shall be1961 of4480 her.
17 Then Abraham85 fell5307 upon5921 his face,6440 and laughed,6711 and said559 in his heart,3820 Shall a child be born3205 unto him that is a hundred3967 years8141 old?1121 and shall Sarah,8283 that is ninety8673 years8141 old,1323 bear?3205
18 And Abraham85 said559 unto413 God,430 O that3863 Ishmael3458 might live2421 before6440 thee!
19 And God430 said,559 Sarah8283 thy wife802 shall bear3205 thee a son1121 indeed;61 and thou shalt call7121 853 his name8034 Isaac:3327 and I will establish6965 853 my covenant1285 with854 him for an everlasting5769 covenant,1285 and with his seed2233 after310 him.
20 And as for Ishmael,3458 I have heard8085 thee: Behold,2009 I have blessed1288 him, and will make him fruitful,6509 853 and will multiply7235 him exceedingly;3966 3966 twelve8147 6240 princes5387 shall he beget,3205 and I will make5414 him a great1419 nation.1471
21 But my covenant1285 will I establish6965 with854 Isaac,3327 which834 Sarah8283 shall bear3205 unto thee at this2088 set time4150 in the next312 year.8141
22 And he left off3615 talking1696 with854 him, and God430 went up5927 from4480 5921 Abraham.85
23 And Abraham85 took3947 853 Ishmael3458 his son,1121 and all3605 that were born3211 in his house,1004 and all3605 that were bought4736 with his money,3701 every3605 male2145 among the men376 of Abraham's85 house;1004 and circumcised4135 853 the flesh1320 of their foreskin6190 in the selfsame6106 2088 day,3117 as834 God430 had said1696 unto854 him.
24 And Abraham85 was ninety8673 years8141 old1121 and nine,8672 when he was circumcised4135 in the flesh1320 of his foreskin.6190
25 And Ishmael3458 his son1121 was thirteen7969 6240 years8141 old,1121 when he was circumcised4135 853 in the flesh1320 of his foreskin.6190
26 In the selfsame6106 2088 day3117 was Abraham85 circumcised,4135 and Ishmael3458 his son.1121
27 And all3605 the men376 of his house,1004 born3211 in the house,1004 and bought4736 with money3701 of4480 854 the stranger,1121 5236 were circumcised4135 with854 him.
1 And the LORD3068 appeared7200 unto413 him in the plains436 of Mamre:4471 and he1931 sat3427 in the tent168 door6607 in the heat2527 of the day;3117
2 And he lifted up5375 his eyes5869 and looked,7200 and, lo,2009 three7969 men376 stood5324 by5921 him: and when he saw7200 them, he ran7323 to meet7125 them from the tent door,4480 6607 168 and bowed himself7812 toward the ground,776
3 And said,559 My Lord,136 if518 now4994 I have found4672 favor2580 in thy sight,5869 pass not away,5674 408 I pray thee,4994 from4480 5921 thy servant:5650
4 Let a little4592 water,4325 I pray you,4994 be fetched,3947 and wash7364 your feet,7272 and rest yourselves8172 under8478 the tree:6086
5 And I will fetch3947 a morsel6595 of bread,3899 and comfort5582 ye your hearts;3820 after that310 ye shall pass on:5674 for3588 therefore5921 3651 are ye come5674 to5921 your servant.5650 And they said,559 So3651 do,6213 as834 thou hast said.1696
6 And Abraham85 hastened4116 into the tent168 unto413 Sarah,8283 and said,559 Make ready quickly4116 three7969 measures5429 of fine5560 meal,7058 knead3888 it, and make6213 cakes upon the hearth.5692
7 And Abraham85 ran7323 unto413 the herd,1241 and fetched3947 a calf1121 1241 tender7390 and good,2896 and gave5414 it unto413 a young man;5288 and he hasted4116 to dress6213 it.
8 And he took3947 butter,2529 and milk,2461 and the calf1121 1241 which834 he had dressed,6213 and set5414 it before6440 them; and he1931 stood5975 by5921 them under8478 the tree,6086 and they did eat.398
9 And they said559 unto413 him, Where346 is Sarah8283 thy wife?802 And he said,559 Behold,2009 in the tent.168
10 And he said,559 I will certainly return7725 7725 unto413 thee according to the time6256 of life;2416 and, lo,2009 Sarah8283 thy wife802 shall have a son.1121 And Sarah8283 heard8085 it in the tent168 door,6607 which1931 was behind310 him.
11 Now Abraham85 and Sarah8283 were old2205 and well stricken935 in age;3117 and it ceased2308 to be1961 with Sarah8283 after the manner734 of women.802
12 Therefore Sarah8283 laughed6711 within7130 herself, saying,559 After310 I am waxed old1086 shall I have1961 pleasure,5730 my lord113 being old2204 also?
13 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Abraham,85 Wherefore4100 2088 did Sarah8283 laugh,6711 saying,559 Shall I of a surety637 552 bear a child,3205 which589 am old?2204
14 Is any thing1697 too hard6381 for the LORD?4480 3068 At the time appointed4150 I will return7725 unto413 thee, according to the time6256 of life,2416 and Sarah8283 shall have a son.1121
15 Then Sarah8283 denied,3584 saying,559 I laughed6711 not;3808 for3588 she was afraid.3372 And he said,559 Nay;3808 but3588 thou didst laugh.6711
16 And the men376 rose up6965 from thence,4480 8033 and looked8259 toward5921 6440 Sodom:5467 and Abraham85 went1980 with5973 them to bring them on the way.7971
17 And the LORD3068 said,559 Shall I589 hide3680 from Abraham4480 85 that thing which834 I589 do;6213
18 Seeing that Abraham85 shall surely become1961 1961 a great1419 and mighty6099 nation,1471 and all3605 the nations1471 of the earth776 shall be blessed1288 in him?
19 For3588 I know3045 him, that4616 834 he will command6680 853 his children1121 and his household1004 after310 him, and they shall keep8104 the way1870 of the LORD,3068 to do6213 justice6666 and judgment;4941 that4616 the LORD3068 may bring935 upon5921 Abraham85 853 that which834 he hath spoken1696 of5921 him.
20 And the LORD3068 said,559 Because3588 the cry2201 of Sodom5467 and Gomorrah6017 is great,7231 and because3588 their sin2403 is very3966 grievous;3513
21 I will go down3381 now,4994 and see7200 whether they have done6213 altogether3617 according to the cry6818 of it, which is come935 unto413 me; and if518 not,3808 I will know.3045
22 And the men376 turned their faces6437 from thence,4480 8033 and went1980 toward Sodom:5467 but Abraham85 stood5975 yet5750 before6440 the LORD.3068
23 And Abraham85 drew near,5066 and said,559 Wilt thou also637 destroy5595 the righteous6662 with5973 the wicked?7563
24 Peradventure194 there be3426 fifty2572 righteous6662 within8432 the city:5892 wilt thou also637 destroy5595 and not3808 spare5375 the place4725 for4616 the fifty2572 righteous6662 that834 are therein?7130
25 That be far2486 from thee to do4480 6213 after this2088 manner,1697 to slay4191 the righteous6662 with5973 the wicked:7563 and that the righteous6662 should be1961 as the wicked,7563 that be far2486 from thee: Shall not3808 the Judge8199 of all3605 the earth776 do6213 right?4941
26 And the LORD3068 said,559 If518 I find4672 in Sodom5467 fifty2572 righteous6662 within8432 the city,5892 then I will spare5375 all3605 the place4725 for their sakes.5668
27 And Abraham85 answered6030 and said,559 Behold2009 now,4994 I have taken upon2974 me to speak1696 unto413 the Lord,136 which595 am but dust6083 and ashes:665
28 Peradventure194 there shall lack2637 five2568 of the fifty2572 righteous:6662 wilt thou destroy7843 853 all3605 the city5892 for lack of five?2568 And he said,559 If518 I find4672 there8033 forty705 and five,2568 I will not3808 destroy7843 it.
29 And he spoke1696 unto413 him yet5750 again,3254 and said,559 Peradventure194 there shall be forty705 found4672 there.8033 And he said,559 I will not3808 do6213 it for forty's sake.5668 705
30 And he said559 unto him, Oh4994 let not408 the Lord136 be angry,2734 and I will speak:1696 Peradventure194 there shall thirty7970 be found4672 there.8033 And he said,559 I will not3808 do6213 it, if518 I find4672 thirty7970 there.8033
31 And he said,559 Behold2009 now,4994 I have taken upon2974 me to speak1696 unto413 the Lord:136 Peradventure194 there shall be twenty6242 found4672 there.8033 And he said,559 I will not3808 destroy7843 it for twenty's sake.5668 6242
32 And he said,559 Oh4994 let not408 the Lord136 be angry,2734 and I will speak1696 yet389 but this once:6471 Peradventure194 ten6235 shall be found4672 there.8033 And he said,559 I will not3808 destroy7843 it for ten's sake.5668 6235
33 And the LORD3068 went his way,1980 as soon as834 he had left3615 communing1696 with413 Abraham:85 and Abraham85 returned7725 unto his place.4725
1 And there came935 two8147 angels4397 to Sodom5467 at even;6153 and Lot3876 sat3427 in the gate8179 of Sodom:5467 and Lot3876 seeing7200 them rose up6965 to meet7125 them; and he bowed himself7812 with his face639 toward the ground;776
2 And he said,559 Behold2009 now,4994 my lords,113 turn in,5493 I pray you,4994 into413 your servant's5650 house,1004 and tarry all night,3885 and wash7364 your feet,7272 and ye shall rise up early,7925 and go1980 on your ways.1870 And they said,559 Nay;3808 but3588 we will abide in the street all night.3885 7339
3 And he pressed6484 upon them greatly;3966 and they turned in5493 unto413 him, and entered935 into413 his house;1004 and he made6213 them a feast,4960 and did bake644 unleavened bread,4682 and they did eat.398
4 But before2962 they lay down,7901 the men376 of the city,5892 even the men376 of Sodom,5467 compassed5437 5921 the house1004 round, both old2205 and young,4480 5288 all3605 the people5971 from every quarter:4480 7097
5 And they called7121 unto413 Lot,3876 and said559 unto him, Where346 are the men376 which834 came in935 to413 thee this night?3915 bring them out3318 unto413 us, that we may know3045 them.
6 And Lot3876 went out3318 at the door6607 unto413 them, and shut5462 the door1817 after310 him,
7 And said,559 I pray you,4994 brethren,251 do not so wickedly.7489 408
8 Behold2009 now,4994 I have two8147 daughters1323 which834 have not3808 known3045 man;376 let me, I pray you,4994 bring them out3318 853 unto413 you, and do6213 ye to them as is good2896 in your eyes:5869 only7535 unto these411 men376 do6213 nothing;408 1697 for3588 therefore5921 3651 came935 they under the shadow6738 of my roof.6982
9 And they said,559 Stand5066 back.1973 And they said559 again, This one259 fellow came in935 to sojourn,1481 and he will needs be a judge:8199 8199 now6258 will we deal worse7489 with thee, than4480 with them. And they pressed6484 sore3966 upon the man,376 even Lot,3876 and came near5066 to break7665 the door.1817
10 But the men376 put forth7971 853 their hand,3027 and pulled935 853 Lot3876 into the house1004 to413 them, and shut to5462 the door.1817
11 And they smote5221 the men376 that834 were at the door6607 of the house1004 with blindness,5575 both small4480 6996 and great:1419 so that they wearied themselves3811 to find4672 the door.6607
12 And the men376 said559 unto413 Lot,3876 Hast thou here6311 any4310 besides5750 a son-in-law,2860 and thy sons,1121 and thy daughters?1323 and whatsoever3605 834 thou hast in the city,5892 bring3318 them out of4480 this place:4725
13 For3588 we587 will destroy7843 853 this2088 place,4725 because3588 the cry6818 of them is waxen great1431 853 before the face6440 of the LORD;3068 and the LORD3068 hath sent7971 us to destroy7843 it.
14 And Lot3876 went out,3318 and spoke1696 unto413 his sons-in-law,2860 which married3947 his daughters,1323 and said,559 Up,6965 get you out3318 of4480 this2088 place;4725 for3588 the LORD3068 will destroy7843 853 this city.5892 But he seemed1961 as one that mocked6711 unto5869 his sons-in-law.2860
15 And when3644 the morning7837 arose,5927 then the angels4397 hastened213 Lot,3876 saying,559 Arise,6965 take3947 853 thy wife,802 and thy two8147 daughters,1323 which are here;4672 lest6435 thou be consumed5595 in the iniquity5771 of the city.5892
16 And while he lingered,4102 the men376 laid hold2388 upon his hand,3027 and upon the hand3027 of his wife,802 and upon the hand3027 of his two8147 daughters;1323 the LORD3068 being merciful2551 unto5921 him: and they brought him forth,3318 and set5117 him without4480 2351 the city.5892
17 And it came to pass,1961 when they had brought them forth3318 853 abroad,2351 that he said,559 Escape4422 for5921 thy life;5315 look5027 not408 behind310 thee, neither408 stay5975 thou in all3605 the plain;3603 escape4422 to the mountain,2022 lest6435 thou be consumed.5595
18 And Lot3876 said559 unto413 them, Oh,4994 not408 so, my Lord:136
19 Behold2009 now,4994 thy servant5650 hath found4672 grace2580 in thy sight,5869 and thou hast magnified1431 thy mercy,2617 which834 thou hast showed6213 unto5973 me in saving2421 853 my life;5315 and I595 cannot3808 3201 escape4422 to the mountain,2022 lest6435 some evil7451 take1692 me, and I die:4191
20 Behold2009 now,4994 this2063 city5892 is near7138 to flee5127 unto,8033 and it1931 is a little one:4705 Oh,4994 let me escape4422 thither,8033 (is it1931 not3808 a little one?)4705 and my soul5315 shall live.2421
21 And he said559 unto413 him, See,2009 I have accepted5375 6440 thee concerning this2088 thing1697 also,1571 that I will not1115 overthrow2015 853 this city,5892 for the which834 thou hast spoken.1696
22 Haste4116 thee, escape4422 thither;8033 for3588 I cannot3808 3201 do6213 any thing1697 till5704 thou be come935 thither.8033 Therefore5921 3651 the name8034 of the city5892 was called7121 Zoar.6820
23 The sun8121 was risen3318 upon5921 the earth776 when Lot3876 entered935 into Zoar.6820
24 Then the LORD3068 rained4305 upon5921 Sodom5467 and upon5921 Gomorrah6017 brimstone1614 and fire784 from4480 854 the LORD3068 out of4480 heaven;8064
25 And he overthrew2015 853 those411 cities,5892 and all3605 the plain,3603 and all3605 the inhabitants3427 of the cities,5892 and that which grew6780 upon the ground.127
26 But his wife802 looked5027 back from behind4480 310 him, and she became1961 a pillar5333 of salt.4417
27 And Abraham85 got up early7925 in the morning1242 to413 the place4725 where834 8033 he stood5975 853 before6440 the LORD:3068
28 And he looked8259 toward5921 6440 Sodom5467 and Gomorrah,6017 and toward5921 6440 all3605 the land776 of the plain,3603 and beheld,7200 and, lo,2009 the smoke7008 of the country776 went up5927 as the smoke7008 of a furnace.3536
29 And it came to pass,1961 when God430 destroyed7843 853 the cities5892 of the plain,3603 that God430 remembered2142 853 Abraham,85 and sent7971 853 Lot3876 out of the midst4480 8432 of the overthrow,2018 when he overthrew2015 853 the cities5892 in the which2004 834 Lot3876 dwelt.3427
30 And Lot3876 went up5927 out of Zoar,4480 6820 and dwelt3427 in the mountain,2022 and his two8147 daughters1323 with5973 him; for3588 he feared3372 to dwell3427 in Zoar:6820 and he dwelt3427 in a cave,4631 he1931 and his two8147 daughters.1323
31 And the firstborn1067 said559 unto413 the younger,6810 Our father1 is old,2204 and there is not369 a man376 in the earth776 to come in935 unto5921 us after the manner1870 of all3605 the earth:776
32 Come,1980 let us make 853 our father1 drink8248 wine,3196 and we will lie7901 with5973 him, that we may preserve2421 seed2233 of our father.4480 1
33 And they made 853 their father1 drink8248 wine3196 that1931 night:3915 and the firstborn1067 went in,935 and lay7901 with854 her father;1 and he perceived3045 not3808 when she lay down,7901 nor when she arose.6965
34 And it came to pass1961 on the morrow,4480 4283 that the firstborn1067 said559 unto413 the younger,6810 Behold,2005 I lay7901 last night570 with854 my father:1 let us make him drink8248 wine3196 this night3915 also;1571 and go thou in,935 and lie7901 with5973 him, that we may preserve2421 seed2233 of our father.4480 1
35 And they made 853 their father1 drink8248 wine3196 that1931 night3915 also:1571 and the younger6810 arose,6965 and lay7901 with5973 him; and he perceived3045 not3808 when she lay down,7901 nor when she arose.6965
36 Thus were both8147 the daughters1323 of Lot3876 with child2029 by their father.4480 1
37 And the firstborn1067 bore3205 a son,1121 and called7121 his name8034 Moab:4124 the same1931 is the father1 of the Moabites4124 unto5704 this day.3117
38 And the younger,6810 she1931 also1571 bore3205 a son,1121 and called7121 his name8034 Ben-ammi:1151 the same1931 is the father1 of the children1121 of Ammon5983 unto5704 this day.3117
1 And Abraham85 journeyed5265 from thence4480 8033 toward the south5045 country,776 and dwelled3427 between996 Kadesh6946 and Shur,7793 and sojourned1481 in Gerar.1642
2 And Abraham85 said559 of413 Sarah8283 his wife,802 She1931 is my sister:269 and Abimelech40 king4428 of Gerar1642 sent,7971 and took3947 853 Sarah.8283
3 But God430 came935 to413 Abimelech40 in a dream2472 by night,3915 and said559 to him, Behold,2009 thou art but a dead man,4191 for5921 the woman802 which834 thou hast taken;3947 for she1931 is a man's1167 wife.1166
4 But Abimelech40 had not3808 come near7126 413 her: and he said,559 Lord,136 wilt thou slay2026 also1571 a righteous6662 nation?1471
5 Said559 he1931 not3808 unto me, She1931 is my sister?269 and she,1931 even1571 she herself1931 said,559 He1931 is my brother:251 in the integrity8537 of my heart3824 and innocency5356 of my hands3709 have I done6213 this.2063
6 And God430 said559 unto413 him in a dream,2472 Yea,1571 I595 know3045 that3588 thou didst6213 this2063 in the integrity8537 of thy heart;3824 for I595 also1571 withheld2820 thee from sinning4480 2398 against me: therefore5921 3651 suffered5414 I thee not3808 to touch5060 413 her.
7 Now6258 therefore restore7725 the man376 his wife;802 for3588 he1931 is a prophet,5030 and he shall pray6419 for1157 thee, and thou shalt live:2421 and if518 thou restore7725 her not,369 know3045 thou that3588 thou shalt surely die,4191 4191 thou,859 and all3605 that834 are thine.
8 Therefore Abimelech40 rose early7925 in the morning,1242 and called7121 all3605 his servants,5650 and told1696 853 all3605 these428 things1697 in their ears:241 and the men376 were sore afraid.3372 3966
9 Then Abimelech40 called7121 Abraham,85 and said559 unto him, What4100 hast thou done6213 unto us? and what4100 have I offended2398 thee, that3588 thou hast brought935 on5921 me and on5921 my kingdom4467 a great1419 sin?2401 thou hast done6213 deeds4639 unto5973 me that834 ought not3808 to be done.6213
10 And Abimelech40 said559 unto413 Abraham,85 What4100 sawest7200 thou, that3588 thou hast done6213 853 this2088 thing?1697
11 And Abraham85 said,559 Because3588 I thought,559 Surely7535 the fear3374 of God430 is not369 in this2088 place;4725 and they will slay2026 me for5921 my wife's802 sake.1697
12 And yet1571 indeed546 she is my sister;269 she1931 is the daughter1323 of my father,1 but389 not3808 the daughter1323 of my mother;517 and she became1961 my wife.802
13 And it came to pass,1961 when834 God430 caused me to wander8582 from my father's house,4480 1004 1 that I said559 unto her, This2088 is thy kindness2617 which834 thou shalt show6213 unto5973 me; at413 every3605 place4725 whither834 8033 we shall come,935 say559 of me, He1931 is my brother.251
14 And Abimelech40 took3947 sheep,6629 and oxen,1241 and menservants,5650 and womenservants,8198 and gave5414 them unto Abraham,85 and restored7725 him 853 Sarah8283 his wife.802
15 And Abimelech40 said,559 Behold,2009 my land776 is before6440 thee: dwell3427 where it pleaseth2896 5869 thee.
16 And unto Sarah8283 he said,559 Behold,2009 I have given5414 thy brother251 a thousand505 pieces of silver:3701 behold,2009 he1931 is to thee a covering3682 of the eyes,5869 unto all3605 that834 are with854 thee, and with854 all3605 other: thus she was reproved.3198
17 So Abraham85 prayed6419 unto413 God:430 and God430 healed7495 853 Abimelech,40 and his wife,802 and his maidservants;519 and they bore3205 children.
18 For3588 the LORD3068 had fast closed up6113 6113 1157 all3605 the wombs7358 of the house1004 of Abimelech,40 because5921 1697 of Sarah8283 Abraham's85 wife.802
1 And the LORD3068 visited6485 853 Sarah8283 as834 he had said,559 and the LORD3068 did6213 unto Sarah8283 as834 he had spoken.1696
2 For Sarah8283 conceived,2029 and bore3205 Abraham85 a son1121 in his old age,2208 at the set time4150 of which834 God430 had spoken1696 to him.
3 And Abraham85 called7121 853 the name8034 of his son1121 that was born3205 unto him, whom834 Sarah8283 bore3205 to him, Isaac.3327
4 And Abraham85 circumcised4135 his son1121 Isaac3327 being eight8083 days3117 old,1121 as834 God430 had commanded6680 him.
5 And Abraham85 was a hundred3967 years8141 old,1121 when 853 his son1121 Isaac3327 was born3205 unto him.
6 And Sarah8283 said,559 God430 hath made6213 me to laugh,6712 so that all3605 that hear8085 will laugh6711 with me.
7 And she said,559 Who4310 would have said4448 unto Abraham,85 that Sarah8283 should have given children suck?3243 1121 for3588 I have born3205 him a son1121 in his old age.2208
8 And the child3206 grew,1431 and was weaned:1580 and Abraham85 made6213 a great1419 feast4960 the same day3117 that 853 Isaac3327 was weaned.1580
9 And Sarah8283 saw7200 853 the son1121 of Hagar1904 the Egyptian,4713 which834 she had born3205 unto Abraham,85 mocking.6711
10 Wherefore she said559 unto Abraham,85 Cast out1644 this2063 bondwoman519 and her son:1121 for3588 the son1121 of this2063 bondwoman519 shall not3808 be heir3423 with5973 my son,1121 even with5973 Isaac.3327
11 And the thing1697 was very grievous7489 3966 in Abraham's85 sight5869 because5921 182 of his son.1121
12 And God430 said559 unto413 Abraham,85 Let it not408 be grievous7489 in thy sight5869 because of5921 the lad,5288 and because of5921 thy bondwoman;519 in all3605 that834 Sarah8283 hath said559 unto413 thee, hearken8085 unto her voice;6963 for3588 in Isaac3327 shall thy seed2233 be called.7121
13 And also1571 853 of the son1121 of the bondwoman519 will I make7760 a nation,1471 because3588 he1931 is thy seed.2233
14 And Abraham85 rose up early7925 in the morning,1242 and took3947 bread,3899 and a bottle2573 of water,4325 and gave5414 it unto413 Hagar,1904 putting7760 it on5921 her shoulder,7926 and the child,3206 and sent her away:7971 and she departed,1980 and wandered8582 in the wilderness4057 of Beer-sheba.884
15 And the water4325 was spent3615 in4480 the bottle,2573 and she cast7993 853 the child3206 under8478 one259 of the shrubs.7880
16 And she went,1980 and sat her down3427 over against4480 5048 him a good way off,7368 as it were a bowshot:2909 7198 for3588 she said,559 Let me not408 see7200 the death4194 of the child.3206 And she sat3427 over against4480 5048 him, and lifted up5375 853 her voice,6963 and wept.1058
17 And God430 heard8085 853 the voice6963 of the lad;5288 and the angel4397 of God430 called7121 to413 Hagar1904 out of4480 heaven,8064 and said559 unto her, What4100 aileth thee, Hagar?1904 fear3372 not;408 for3588 God430 hath heard8085 413 the voice6963 of the lad5288 where834 8033 he1931 is.
18 Arise,6965 lift up5375 853 the lad,5288 and hold2388 him in854 thine hand;3027 for3588 I will make7760 him a great1419 nation.1471
19 And God430 opened6491 853 her eyes,5869 and she saw7200 a well875 of water;4325 and she went,1980 and filled4390 853 the bottle2573 with water,4325 and gave 853 the lad5288 drink.8248
20 And God430 was1961 with854 the lad;5288 and he grew,1431 and dwelt3427 in the wilderness,4057 and became1961 an archer.7235 7199
21 And he dwelt3427 in the wilderness4057 of Paran:6290 and his mother517 took3947 him a wife802 out of the land4480 776 of Egypt.4714
22 And it came to pass1961 at that1931 time,6256 that Abimelech40 and Phichol6369 the chief captain8269 of his host6635 spoke559 unto413 Abraham,85 saying,559 God430 is with5973 thee in all3605 that834 thou859 doest:6213
23 Now6258 therefore swear7650 unto me here2008 by God430 that thou wilt not deal falsely8266 with me, nor with my son,5209 nor with my son's son:5220 but according to the kindness2617 that834 I have done6213 unto5973 thee, thou shalt do6213 unto5978 me, and to5973 the land776 wherein834 thou hast sojourned.1481
24 And Abraham85 said,559 I595 will swear.7650
25 And Abraham85 reproved3198 853 Abimelech40 because of5921 182 a well875 of water,4325 which834 Abimelech's40 servants5650 had violently taken away.1497
26 And Abimelech40 said,559 I know3045 not3808 who4310 hath done6213 853 this2088 thing:1697 neither3808 didst thou859 tell5046 me, neither3808 yet1571 heard8085 I595 of it, but1115 today.3117
27 And Abraham85 took3947 sheep6629 and oxen,1241 and gave5414 them unto Abimelech;40 and both8147 of them made3772 a covenant.1285
28 And Abraham85 set5324 853 seven7651 ewe lambs3535 of the flock6629 by themselves.905
29 And Abimelech40 said559 unto413 Abraham,85 What4100 mean these428 seven7651 ewe lambs3535 which834 thou hast set5324 by themselves?905
30 And he said,559 For3588 these 853 seven7651 ewe lambs3535 shalt thou take3947 of my hand,4480 3027 that5668 they may be1961 a witness5713 unto me, that3588 I have digged2658 853 this2088 well.875
31 Wherefore5921 3651 he called7121 that1931 place4725 Beer-sheba;884 because3588 there8033 they swore7650 both8147 of them.
32 Thus they made3772 a covenant1285 at Beer-sheba:884 then Abimelech40 rose up,6965 and Phichol6369 the chief captain8269 of his host,6635 and they returned7725 into413 the land776 of the Philistines.6430
33 And Abraham planted5193 a grove815 in Beer-sheba,884 and called7121 there8033 on the name8034 of the LORD,3068 the everlasting5769 God.410
34 And Abraham85 sojourned1481 in the Philistines'6430 land776 many7227 days.3117
1 And it came to pass1961 after310 these428 things,1697 that God430 did tempt5254 853 Abraham,85 and said559 unto413 him, Abraham:85 and he said,559 Behold,2009 here I am.
2 And he said,559 Take3947 now4994 853 thy son,1121 853 thine only3173 son 853 Isaac,3327 whom834 thou lovest,157 and get1980 thee into413 the land776 of Moriah;4179 and offer5927 him there8033 for a burnt offering5930 upon5921 one259 of the mountains2022 which834 I will tell559 thee of.413
3 And Abraham85 rose up early7925 in the morning,1242 and saddled2280 853 his ass,2543 and took3947 853 two8147 of his young men5288 with854 him, and Isaac3327 his son,1121 and cleaved1234 the wood6086 for the burnt offering,5930 and rose up,6965 and went1980 unto413 the place4725 of which834 God430 had told559 him.
4 Then on the third7992 day3117 Abraham85 lifted up5375 853 his eyes,5869 and saw7200 853 the place4725 afar off.4480 7350
5 And Abraham85 said559 unto413 his young men,5288 Abide3427 ye here6311 with5973 the ass;2543 and I589 and the lad5288 will go1980 yonder5704 3541 and worship,7812 and come again7725 to413 you.
6 And Abraham85 took3947 853 the wood6086 of the burnt offering,5930 and laid7760 it upon5921 Isaac3327 his son;1121 and he took3947 853 the fire784 in his hand,3027 and a knife;3979 and they went1980 both8147 of them together.3162
7 And Isaac3327 spoke559 unto413 Abraham85 his father,1 and said,559 My father:1 and he said,559 Here2009 am I, my son.1121 And he said,559 Behold2009 the fire784 and the wood:6086 but where346 is the lamb7716 for a burnt offering?5930
8 And Abraham85 said,559 My son,1121 God430 will provide7200 himself a lamb7716 for a burnt offering:5930 so they went1980 both8147 of them together.3162
9 And they came935 to413 the place4725 which834 God430 had told559 him of; and Abraham85 built1129 853 an altar4196 there,8033 and laid the wood in order,6186 853 6086 and bound6123 853 Isaac3327 his son,1121 and laid7760 him on5921 the altar4196 upon4480 4605 the wood.6086
10 And Abraham85 stretched forth7971 853 his hand,3027 and took3947 853 the knife3979 to slay7819 853 his son.1121
11 And the angel4397 of the LORD3068 called7121 unto413 him out of4480 heaven,8064 and said,559 Abraham,85 Abraham:85 and he said,559 Here2009 am I.
12 And he said,559 Lay7971 not408 thine hand3027 upon413 the lad,5288 neither408 do6213 thou any thing3972 unto him: for3588 now6258 I know3045 that3588 thou859 fearest3373 God,430 seeing thou hast not3808 withheld2820 853 thy son,1121 853 thine only3173 son from4480 me.
13 And Abraham85 lifted up5375 853 his eyes,5869 and looked,7200 and behold2009 behind310 him a ram352 caught270 in a thicket5442 by his horns:7161 and Abraham85 went1980 and took3947 853 the ram,352 and offered him up5927 for a burnt offering5930 in the stead of8478 his son.1121
14 And Abraham85 called7121 the name8034 of that1931 place4725 Jehovah-jireh:3070 as834 it is said559 to this day,3117 In the mount2022 of the LORD3068 it shall be seen.7200
15 And the angel4397 of the LORD3068 called7121 unto413 Abraham85 out of4480 heaven8064 the second time,8145
16 And said,559 By myself have I sworn,7650 saith5002 the LORD,3068 for3588 because3282 834 thou hast done6213 853 this2088 thing,1697 and hast not3808 withheld2820 853 thy son,1121 853 thine only3173 son:
17 That3588 in blessing1288 I will bless1288 thee, and in multiplying7235 I will multiply7235 853 thy seed2233 as the stars3556 of the heaven,8064 and as the sand2344 which834 is upon5921 the sea3220 shore;8193 and thy seed2233 shall possess3423 853 the gate8179 of his enemies;341
18 And in thy seed2233 shall all3605 the nations1471 of the earth776 be blessed;1288 because6118 834 thou hast obeyed8085 my voice.6963
19 So Abraham85 returned7725 unto413 his young men,5288 and they rose up6965 and went1980 together3162 to413 Beer-sheba;884 and Abraham85 dwelt3427 at Beer-sheba.884
20 And it came to pass1961 after310 these428 things,1697 that it was told5046 Abraham,85 saying,559 Behold,2009 Milcah,4435 she1931 hath also1571 born3205 children1121 unto thy brother251 Nahor;5152
21 853 Huz5780 his firstborn,1060 and Buz938 his brother,251 and Kemuel7055 the father1 of Aram,758
22 And Chesed,3777 and Hazo,2375 and Pildash,6394 and Jidlaph,3044 and Bethuel.1328
23 And Bethuel1328 begot3205 853 Rebekah:7259 these428 eight8083 Milcah4435 did bear3205 to Nahor,5152 Abraham's85 brother.251
24 And his concubine,6370 whose name8034 was Reumah,7208 she1931 bore3205 also1571 853 Tebah,2875 and Gaham,1514 and Thahash,8477 and Maachah.4601
1 And Sarah8283 was1961 a hundred3967 and seven7651 and twenty6242 years8141 old:2416 these were the years8141 of the life2416 of Sarah.8283
2 And Sarah8283 died4191 in Kirjath-arba;7153 the same1931 is Hebron2275 in the land776 of Canaan:3667 and Abraham85 came935 to mourn5594 for Sarah,8283 and to weep1058 for her.
3 And Abraham85 stood up6965 from before4480 5921 6440 his dead,4191 and spoke1696 unto413 the sons1121 of Heth,2845 saying,559
4 I595 am a stranger1616 and a sojourner8453 with5973 you: give5414 me a possession272 of a burial place6913 with5973 you, that I may bury6912 my dead4191 out of my sight.4480 6440
5 And the children1121 of Heth2845 answered6030 853 Abraham,85 saying559 unto him,
6 Hear8085 us, my lord:113 thou859 art a mighty430 prince5387 among8432 us: in the choice4005 of our sepulchers6913 bury6912 853 thy dead;4191 none376 3808 of4480 us shall withhold3607 from4480 thee 853 his sepulcher,6913 but that thou mayest bury4480 6912 thy dead.4191
7 And Abraham85 stood up,6965 and bowed himself7812 to the people5971 of the land,776 even to the children1121 of Heth.2845
8 And he communed1696 with854 them, saying,559 If518 it be3426 853 your mind5315 that I should bury6912 853 my dead4191 out of my sight;4480 6440 hear8085 me, and entreat6293 for me to Ephron6085 the son1121 of Zohar,6714
9 That he may give5414 me 853 the cave4631 of Machpelah,4375 which834 he hath, which834 is in the end7097 of his field;7704 for as much money3701 as it is worth4392 he shall give5414 it me for a possession272 of a burial place6913 amongst8432 you.
10 And Ephron6085 dwelt3427 among8432 the children1121 of Heth:2845 and Ephron6085 the Hittite2850 answered6030 853 Abraham85 in the audience241 of the children1121 of Heth,2845 even of all3605 that went in935 at the gate8179 of his city,5892 saying,559
11 Nay,3808 my lord,113 hear8085 me: the field7704 give5414 I thee, and the cave4631 that834 is therein, I give5414 it thee; in the presence5869 of the sons1121 of my people5971 give5414 I it thee: bury6912 thy dead.4191
12 And Abraham85 bowed down himself7812 before6440 the people5971 of the land.776
13 And he spoke1696 unto413 Ephron6085 in the audience241 of the people5971 of the land,776 saying,559 But389 if518 thou859 wilt give it, I pray thee,3863 hear8085 me: I will give5414 thee money3701 for the field;7704 take3947 it of4480 me, and I will bury6912 853 my dead4191 there.8033
14 And Ephron6085 answered6030 853 Abraham,85 saying559 unto him,
15 My lord,113 hearken8085 unto me: the land776 is worth four702 hundred3967 shekels8255 of silver;3701 what4100 is that1931 between996 me and thee? bury6912 therefore thy dead.4191
16 And Abraham85 hearkened8085 unto413 Ephron;6085 and Abraham85 weighed8254 to Ephron6085 853 the silver,3701 which834 he had named1696 in the audience241 of the sons1121 of Heth,2845 four702 hundred3967 shekels8255 of silver,3701 current5674 money with the merchant.5503
17 And the field7704 of Ephron,6085 which834 was in Machpelah,4375 which834 was before6440 Mamre,4471 the field,7704 and the cave4631 which834 was therein, and all3605 the trees6086 that834 were in the field,7704 that834 were in all3605 the borders1366 round about,5439 were made sure6965
18 Unto Abraham85 for a possession4736 in the presence5869 of the children1121 of Heth,2845 before all3605 that went in935 at the gate8179 of his city.5892
19 And after310 this,3651 Abraham85 buried6912 853 Sarah8283 his wife802 in413 the cave4631 of the field7704 of Machpelah4375 before5921 6440 Mamre:4471 the same1931 is Hebron2275 in the land776 of Canaan.3667
20 And the field,7704 and the cave4631 that834 is therein, were made sure6965 unto Abraham85 for a possession272 of a burial place6913 by4480 854 the sons1121 of Heth.2845
1 And Abraham85 was old,2204 and well stricken935 in age:3117 and the LORD3068 had blessed1288 853 Abraham85 in all things.3605
2 And Abraham85 said559 unto413 his eldest2205 servant5650 of his house,1004 that ruled4910 over all3605 that834 he had, Put,7760 I pray thee,4994 thy hand3027 under8478 my thigh:3409
3 And I will make thee swear7650 by the LORD,3068 the God430 of heaven,8064 and the God430 of the earth,776 that834 thou shalt not3808 take3947 a wife802 unto my son1121 of the daughters4480 1323 of the Canaanites,3669 among7130 whom834 I595 dwell:3427
4 But3588 thou shalt go1980 unto413 my country,776 and to413 my kindred,4138 and take3947 a wife802 unto my son1121 Isaac.3327
5 And the servant5650 said559 unto413 him, Peradventure194 the woman802 will not3808 be willing14 to follow1980 310 me unto413 this2063 land:776 must I needs bring7725 7725 853 thy son1121 again unto413 the land776 from whence834 4480 8033 thou camest?3318
6 And Abraham85 said559 unto413 him, Beware8104 thou that6435 thou bring7725 not 853 my son1121 thither8033 again.
7 The LORD3068 God430 of heaven,8064 which834 took3947 me from my father's house,4480 1004 1 and from the land4480 776 of my kindred,4138 and which834 spoke1696 unto me, and that834 swore7650 unto me, saying,559 Unto thy seed2233 will I give5414 853 this2063 land;776 he1931 shall send7971 his angel4397 before6440 thee, and thou shalt take3947 a wife802 unto my son1121 from thence.4480 8033
8 And if518 the woman802 will not3808 be willing14 to follow1980 310 thee, then thou shalt be clear5352 from this my oath:4480 7621 2063 only7535 bring7725 not3808 853 my son1121 thither8033 again.
9 And the servant5650 put7760 853 his hand3027 under8478 the thigh3409 of Abraham85 his master,113 and swore7650 to him concerning5921 that2088 matter.1697
10 And the servant5650 took3947 ten6235 camels1581 of the camels4480 1581 of his master,113 and departed;1980 for all3605 the goods2898 of his master113 were in his hand:3027 and he arose,6965 and went1980 to413 Mesopotamia,763 unto413 the city5892 of Nahor.5152
11 And he made his camels1581 to kneel down1288 without4480 2351 the city5892 by413 a well875 of water4325 at the time6256 of the evening,6153 even the time6256 that women go out3318 to draw7579 water.
12 And he said,559 O LORD3068 God430 of my master113 Abraham,85 I pray thee,4994 send me good speed7136 6440 this day,3117 and show6213 kindness2617 unto5973 my master113 Abraham.85
13 Behold,2009 I595 stand5324 here by5921 the well5869 of water;4325 and the daughters1323 of the men376 of the city5892 come out3318 to draw7579 water:4325
14 And let it come to pass,1961 that the damsel5291 to whom834 I shall say,559 413 Let down5186 thy pitcher,3537 I pray thee,4994 that I may drink;8354 and she shall say,559 Drink,8354 and I will give thy camels1581 drink8248 also:1571 let the same be she that thou hast appointed3198 for thy servant5650 Isaac;3327 and thereby shall I know3045 that3588 thou hast showed6213 kindness2617 unto5973 my master.113
15 And it came to pass,1961 before2962 he1931 had done3615 speaking,1696 that, behold,2009 Rebekah7259 came out,3318 who834 was born3205 to Bethuel,1328 son1121 of Milcah,4435 the wife802 of Nahor,5152 Abraham's85 brother,251 with her pitcher3537 upon5921 her shoulder.7926
16 And the damsel5291 was very3966 fair2896 to look upon,4758 a virgin,1330 neither3808 had any man376 known3045 her: and she went down3381 to the well,5869 and filled4390 her pitcher,3537 and came up.5927
17 And the servant5650 ran7323 to meet7125 her, and said,559 Let me, I pray thee,4994 drink1572 a little4592 water4325 of thy pitcher.4480 3537
18 And she said,559 Drink,8354 my lord:113 and she hasted,4116 and let down3381 her pitcher3537 upon5921 her hand,3027 and gave him drink.8248
19 And when she had done3615 giving him drink,8248 she said,559 I will draw7579 water for thy camels1581 also,1571 until5704 518 they have done3615 drinking.8354
20 And she hasted,4116 and emptied6168 her pitcher3537 into413 the trough,8268 and ran7323 again5750 unto413 the well875 to draw7579 water, and drew7579 for all3605 his camels.1581
21 And the man376 wondering7583 at her held his peace,2790 to know3045 whether the LORD3068 had made his journey1870 prosperous6743 or518 not.3808
22 And it came to pass,1961 as834 the camels1581 had done3615 drinking,8354 that the man376 took3947 a golden2091 earring5141 of half a shekel1235 weight,4948 and two8147 bracelets6781 for5921 her hands3027 of ten6235 shekels weight4948 of gold;2091
23 And said,559 Whose4310 daughter1323 art thou?859 tell5046 me, I pray thee:4994 is there3426 room4725 in thy father's1 house1004 for us to lodge in?3885
24 And she said559 unto413 him, I595 am the daughter1323 of Bethuel1328 the son1121 of Milcah,4435 which834 she bore3205 unto Nahor.5152
25 She said559 moreover unto413 him, We have both1571 straw8401 and1571 provender4554 enough,7227 and1571 room4725 to lodge in.3885
26 And the man376 bowed down his head,6915 and worshiped7812 the LORD.3068
27 And he said,559 Blessed1288 be the LORD3068 God430 of my master113 Abraham,85 who834 hath not3808 left destitute5800 4480 5973 my master113 of his mercy2617 and his truth:571 I595 being in the way,1870 the LORD3068 led5148 me to the house1004 of my master's113 brethren.251
28 And the damsel5291 ran,7323 and told5046 them of her mother's517 house1004 these428 things.1697
29 And Rebekah7259 had a brother,251 and his name8034 was Laban:3837 and Laban3837 ran7323 out2351 unto413 the man,376 unto413 the well.5869
30 And it came to pass,1961 when he saw7200 853 the earring5141 and bracelets6781 upon5921 his sister's269 hands,3027 and when he heard8085 853 the words1697 of Rebekah7259 his sister,269 saying,559 Thus3541 spoke1696 the man376 unto413 me; that he came935 unto413 the man;376 and, behold,2009 he stood5975 by5921 the camels1581 at5921 the well.5869
31 And he said,559 Come in,935 thou blessed1288 of the LORD;3068 wherefore4100 standest5975 thou without?2351 for I595 have prepared6437 the house,1004 and room4725 for the camels.1581
32 And the man376 came935 into the house:1004 and he ungirded6605 his camels,1581 and gave5414 straw8401 and provender4554 for the camels,1581 and water4325 to wash7364 his feet,7272 and the men's376 feet7272 that834 were with854 him.
33 And there was set7760 meat before6440 him to eat:398 but he said,559 I will not3808 eat,398 until5704 518 I have told1696 mine errand.1697 And he said,559 Speak on.1696
34 And he said,559 I595 am Abraham's85 servant.5650
35 And the LORD3068 hath blessed1288 853 my master113 greatly;3966 and he is become great:1431 and he hath given5414 him flocks,6629 and herds,1241 and silver,3701 and gold,2091 and menservants,5650 and maidservants,8198 and camels,1581 and asses.2543
36 And Sarah8283 my master's113 wife802 bore3205 a son1121 to my master113 when310 she was old:2209 and unto him hath he given5414 853 all3605 that834 he hath.
37 And my master113 made me swear,7650 saying,559 Thou shalt not3808 take3947 a wife802 to my son1121 of the daughters4480 1323 of the Canaanites,3669 in whose834 land776 I595 dwell:3427
38 But518 3808 thou shalt go1980 unto413 my father's1 house,1004 and to413 my kindred,4940 and take3947 a wife802 unto my son.1121
39 And I said559 unto413 my master,113 Peradventure194 the woman802 will not3808 follow1980 310 me.
40 And he said559 unto413 me, The LORD,3068 before6440 whom834 I walk,1980 will send7971 his angel4397 with854 thee, and prosper6743 thy way;1870 and thou shalt take3947 a wife802 for my son1121 of my kindred,4480 4940 and of my father's house:4480 1004 1
41 Then227 shalt thou be clear5352 from this my oath,4480 423 when3588 thou comest935 to413 my kindred;4940 and if518 they give5414 not3808 thee one, thou shalt be1961 clear5355 from my oath.4480 423
42 And I came935 this day3117 unto413 the well,5869 and said,559 O LORD3068 God430 of my master113 Abraham,85 if518 now4994 thou do3426 prosper6743 my way1870 which834 5921 I595 go:1980
43 Behold,2009 I595 stand5324 by5921 the well5869 of water;4325 and it shall come to pass,1961 that when the virgin5959 cometh forth3318 to draw7579 water, and I say559 to413 her, Give me, I pray thee,4994 a little4592 water4325 of thy pitcher4480 3537 to drink;8248
44 And she say559 to413 me, Both1571 drink8354 thou,859 and I will also1571 draw7579 for thy camels:1581 let the same1931 be the woman802 whom834 the LORD3068 hath appointed out3198 for my master's113 son.1121
45 And before2962 I589 had done3615 speaking1696 in413 mine heart,3820 behold,2009 Rebekah7259 came forth3318 with her pitcher3537 on5921 her shoulder;7926 and she went down3381 unto the well,5869 and drew7579 water: and I said559 unto413 her, Let me drink,8248 I pray thee.4994
46 And she made haste,4116 and let down3381 her pitcher3537 from4480 5921 her shoulder, and said,559 Drink,8354 and I will give thy camels1581 drink8248 also:1571 so I drank,8354 and she made the camels1581 drink8354 also.1571
47 And I asked7592 her, and said,559 Whose4310 daughter1323 art thou?859 And she said,559 The daughter1323 of Bethuel,1328 Nahor's5152 son,1121 whom834 Milcah4435 bore3205 unto him: and I put7760 the earring5141 upon5921 her face,639 and the bracelets6781 upon5921 her hands.3027
48 And I bowed down my head,6915 and worshiped7812 the LORD,3068 and blessed1288 853 the LORD3068 God430 of my master113 Abraham,85 which834 had led5148 me in the right571 way1870 to take3947 853 my master's113 brother's251 daughter1323 unto his son.1121
49 And now6258 if518 ye will3426 deal6213 kindly2617 and truly571 with854 my master,113 tell5046 me: and if518 not,3808 tell5046 me; that I may turn6437 to5921 the right hand,3225 or176 to5921 the left.8040
50 Then Laban3837 and Bethuel1328 answered6030 and said,559 The thing1697 proceedeth3318 from the LORD:4480 3068 we cannot3201 3808 speak1696 unto413 thee bad7451 or176 good.2896
51 Behold,2009 Rebekah7259 is before6440 thee, take3947 her, and go,1980 and let her be1961 thy master's113 son's1121 wife,802 as834 the LORD3068 hath spoken.1696
52 And it came to pass,1961 that, when834 Abraham's85 servant5650 heard8085 853 their words,1697 he worshiped7812 the LORD,3068 bowing himself to the earth.776
53 And the servant5650 brought forth3318 jewels3627 of silver,3701 and jewels3627 of gold,2091 and raiment,899 and gave5414 them to Rebekah:7259 he gave5414 also to her brother251 and to her mother517 precious things.4030
54 And they did eat398 and drink,8354 he1931 and the men376 that834 were with5973 him, and tarried all night;3885 and they rose up6965 in the morning,1242 and he said,559 Send me away7971 unto my master.113
55 And her brother251 and her mother517 said,559 Let the damsel5291 abide3427 with854 us a few days,3117 at the least176 ten;6218 after that310 she shall go.1980
56 And he said559 unto413 them, Hinder309 me not,408 seeing the LORD3068 hath prospered6743 my way;1870 send me away7971 that I may go1980 to my master.113
57 And they said,559 We will call7121 the damsel,5291 and inquire7592 at 853 her mouth.6310
58 And they called7121 Rebekah,7259 and said559 unto413 her, Wilt thou go1980 with5973 this2088 man?376 And she said,559 I will go.1980
59 And they sent away7971 853 Rebekah7259 their sister,269 and her nurse,3243 and Abraham's85 servant,5650 and his men.376
60 And they blessed1288 853 Rebekah,7259 and said559 unto her, Thou859 art our sister,269 be1961 thou the mother of thousands505 of millions,7233 and let thy seed2233 possess3423 853 the gate8179 of those which hate8130 them.
61 And Rebekah7259 arose,6965 and her damsels,5291 and they rode7392 upon5921 the camels,1581 and followed1980 310 the man:376 and the servant5650 took3947 853 Rebekah,7259 and went his way.1980
62 And Isaac3327 came935 from the way4480 935 of the well Lahai-roi;883 for he1931 dwelt3427 in the south5045 country.776
63 And Isaac3327 went out3318 to meditate7742 in the field7704 at the eventide:6437 6153 and he lifted up5375 his eyes,5869 and saw,7200 and, behold,2009 the camels1581 were coming.935
64 And Rebekah7259 lifted up5375 853 her eyes,5869 and when she saw7200 853 Isaac,3327 she lighted5307 off4480 5921 the camel.1581
65 For she had said559 unto413 the servant,5650 What4310 man376 is this1976 that walketh1980 in the field7704 to meet7125 us? And the servant5650 had said,559 It1931 is my master:113 therefore she took3947 a veil,6809 and covered herself.3680
66 And the servant5650 told5608 Isaac3327 853 all3605 things1697 that834 he had done.6213
67 And Isaac3327 brought935 her into his mother517 Sarah's8283 tent,168 and took3947 853 Rebekah,7259 and she became1961 his wife;802 and he loved157 her: and Isaac3327 was comforted5162 after310 his mother's517 death.
1 Then again3254 Abraham85 took3947 a wife,802 and her name8034 was Keturah.6989
2 And she bore3205 him 853 Zimran,2175 and Jokshan,3370 and Medan,4091 and Midian,4080 and Ishbak,3435 and Shuah.7744
3 And Jokshan3370 begot3205 853 Sheba,7614 and Dedan.1719 And the sons1121 of Dedan1719 were1961 Asshurim,805 and Letushim,3912 and Leummim.3817
4 And the sons1121 of Midian;4080 Ephah,5891 and Epher,6081 and Hanoch,2585 and Abida,28 and Eldaah.420 All3605 these428 were the children1121 of Keturah.6989
5 And Abraham85 gave5414 853 all3605 that834 he had unto Isaac.3327
6 But unto the sons1121 of the concubines,6370 which834 Abraham85 had, Abraham85 gave5414 gifts,4979 and sent them away7971 from4480 5921 Isaac3327 his son,1121 while he yet5750 lived,2416 eastward,6924 unto413 the east6924 country.776
7 And these428 are the days3117 of the years8141 of Abraham's85 life2416 which834 he lived,2416 a hundred3967 threescore and fifteen7657 8141 2568 years.8141
8 Then Abraham85 gave up the ghost,1478 and died4191 in a good2896 old age,7872 an old man,2205 and full7649 of years; and was gathered622 to413 his people.5971
9 And his sons1121 Isaac3327 and Ishmael3458 buried6912 him in413 the cave4631 of Machpelah,4375 in413 the field7704 of Ephron6085 the son1121 of Zohar6714 the Hittite,2850 which834 is before5921 6440 Mamre;4471
10 The field7704 which834 Abraham85 purchased7069 of4480 854 the sons1121 of Heth:2845 there8033 was Abraham85 buried,6912 and Sarah8283 his wife.802
11 And it came to pass1961 after310 the death4194 of Abraham,85 that God430 blessed1288 his son1121 853 Isaac;3327 and Isaac3327 dwelt3427 by5973 the well Lahai-roi.883
12 Now these428 are the generations8435 of Ishmael,3458 Abraham's85 son,1121 whom834 Hagar1904 the Egyptian,4713 Sarah's8283 handmaid,8198 bore3205 unto Abraham:85
13 And these428 are the names8034 of the sons1121 of Ishmael,3458 by their names,8034 according to their generations:8435 the firstborn1060 of Ishmael,3458 Nebajoth;5032 and Kedar,6938 and Adbeel,110 and Mibsam,4017
14 And Mishma,4927 and Dumah,1746 and Massa,4854
15 Hadar,2316 and Tema,8485 Jetur,3195 Naphish,5305 and Kedemah:6929
16 These428 are the sons1121 of Ishmael,3458 and these428 are their names,8034 by their towns,2691 and by their castles;2918 twelve8147 6240 princes5387 according to their nations.523
17 And these428 are the years8141 of the life2416 of Ishmael,3458 a hundred3967 and thirty7970 and seven7651 years:8141 and he gave up the ghost1478 and died;4191 and was gathered622 unto413 his people.5971
18 And they dwelt7931 from Havilah4480 2341 unto5704 Shur,7793 that834 is before5921 6440 Egypt,4714 as thou goest935 toward Assyria:804 and he died5307 in5921 the presence6440 of all3605 his brethren.251
19 And these428 are the generations8435 of Isaac,3327 Abraham's85 son:1121 Abraham85 begot3205 853 Isaac:3327
20 And Isaac3327 was1961 forty705 years8141 old1121 when he took3947 853 Rebekah7259 to wife,802 the daughter1323 of Bethuel1328 the Syrian761 of Padan-aram,4480 6307 the sister269 to Laban3837 the Syrian.761
21 And Isaac3327 entreated6279 the LORD3068 for5227 his wife,802 because3588 she1931 was barren:6135 and the LORD3068 was entreated6279 of him, and Rebekah7259 his wife802 conceived.2029
22 And the children1121 struggled together7533 within7130 her; and she said,559 If518 it be so,3651 why4100 am I595 thus?2088 And she went1980 to inquire1875 of 853 the LORD.3068
23 And the LORD3068 said559 unto her, Two8147 nations1471 are in thy womb,990 and two8147 manner of people3816 shall be separated6504 from thy bowels;4480 4578 and the one people3816 shall be stronger553 than the other people;4480 3816 and the elder7227 shall serve5647 the younger.6810
24 And when her days3117 to be delivered3205 were fulfilled,4390 behold,2009 there were twins8380 in her womb.990
25 And the first7223 came out3318 red,132 all over3605 like an hairy8181 garment;155 and they called7121 his name8034 Esau.6215
26 And after that310 3651 came3318 his brother251 out, and his hand3027 took hold270 on Esau's6215 heel;6119 and his name8034 was called7121 Jacob:3290 and Isaac3327 was threescore8346 years8141 old1121 when she bore3205 them.
27 And the boys5288 grew:1431 and Esau6215 was1961 a cunning3045 hunter,6718 a man376 of the field;7704 and Jacob3290 was a plain8535 man,376 dwelling3427 in tents.168
28 And Isaac3327 loved157 853 Esau,6215 because3588 he did eat6310 of his venison:6718 but Rebekah7259 loved157 853 Jacob.3290
29 And Jacob3290 sod2102 pottage:5138 and Esau6215 came935 from4480 the field,7704 and he1931 was faint:5889
30 And Esau6215 said559 to413 Jacob,3290 Feed3938 me, I pray thee,4994 with4480 that same2088 red122 pottage; for3588 I595 am faint:5889 therefore5921 3651 was his name8034 called7121 Edom.123
31 And Jacob3290 said,559 Sell4376 me this day3117 853 thy birthright.1062
32 And Esau6215 said,559 Behold,2009 I595 am at the point1980 to die:4191 and what profit4100 shall this2088 birthright1062 do to me?
33 And Jacob3290 said,559 Swear7650 to me this day;3117 and he swore7650 unto him: and he sold4376 853 his birthright1062 unto Jacob.3290
34 Then Jacob3290 gave5414 Esau6215 bread3899 and pottage5138 of lentils;5742 and he did eat398 and drink,8354 and rose up,6965 and went his way:1980 thus Esau6215 despised959 853 his birthright.1062
1 And there was1961 a famine7458 in the land,776 beside4480 905 the first7223 famine7458 that834 was1961 in the days3117 of Abraham.85 And Isaac3327 went1980 unto413 Abimelech40 king4428 of the Philistines6430 unto Gerar.1642
2 And the LORD3068 appeared7200 unto413 him, and said,559 Go not down3381 408 into Egypt;4714 dwell7931 in the land776 which834 I shall tell559 thee of:413
3 Sojourn1481 in this2063 land,776 and I will be1961 with5973 thee, and will bless1288 thee; for3588 unto thee, and unto thy seed,2233 I will give5414 853 all3605 these411 countries,776 and I will perform6965 853 the oath7621 which834 I swore7650 unto Abraham85 thy father;1
4 And I will make 853 thy seed2233 to multiply7235 as the stars3556 of heaven,8064 and will give5414 unto thy seed2233 853 all3605 these411 countries;776 and in thy seed2233 shall all3605 the nations1471 of the earth776 be blessed;1288
5 Because6118 that834 Abraham85 obeyed8085 my voice,6963 and kept8104 my charge,4931 my commandments,4687 my statutes,2708 and my laws.8451
6 And Isaac3327 dwelt3427 in Gerar:1642
7 And the men376 of the place4725 asked7592 him of his wife;802 and he said,559 She1931 is my sister:269 for3588 he feared3372 to say,559 She is my wife;802 lest,6435 said he, the men376 of the place4725 should kill2026 me for5921 Rebekah;7259 because3588 she1931 was fair2896 to look upon.4758
8 And it came to pass,1961 when3588 he had been there8033 a long748 time,3117 that Abimelech40 king4428 of the Philistines6430 looked out8259 at1157 a window,2474 and saw,7200 and, behold,2009 Isaac3327 was sporting6711 with 853 Rebekah7259 his wife.802
9 And Abimelech40 called7121 Isaac,3327 and said,559 Behold,2009 of a surety389 she1931 is thy wife:802 and how349 saidst559 thou, She1931 is my sister?269 And Isaac3327 said559 unto413 him, Because3588 I said,559 Lest6435 I die4191 for5921 her.
10 And Abimelech40 said,559 What4100 is this2063 thou hast done6213 unto us? one259 of the people5971 might lightly4592 have lain7901 with854 thy wife,802 and thou shouldest have brought935 guiltiness817 upon5921 us.
11 And Abimelech40 charged6680 853 all3605 his people,5971 saying,559 He that toucheth5060 this2088 man376 or his wife802 shall surely be put to death.4191 4191
12 Then Isaac3327 sowed2232 in that1931 land,776 and received4672 in the same1931 year8141 a hundredfold:3967 8180 and the LORD3068 blessed1288 him.
13 And the man376 waxed great,1431 and went1980 forward,1980 and grew1432 until5704 3588 he became very great:1431 3966
14 For he had1961 possession4735 of flocks,6629 and possession4735 of herds,1241 and great store7227 of servants:5657 and the Philistines6430 envied7065 him.
15 For all3605 the wells875 which834 his father's1 servants5650 had digged2658 in the days3117 of Abraham85 his father,1 the Philistines6430 had stopped5640 them, and filled4390 them with earth.6083
16 And Abimelech40 said559 unto413 Isaac,3327 Go1980 from4480 5973 us; for3588 thou art much mightier6105 3966 than4480 we.
17 And Isaac3327 departed1980 thence,4480 8033 and pitched his tent2583 in the valley5158 of Gerar,1642 and dwelt3427 there.8033
18 And Isaac3327 digged2658 again7725 853 the wells875 of water,4325 which834 they had digged2658 in the days3117 of Abraham85 his father;1 for the Philistines6430 had stopped5640 them after310 the death4194 of Abraham:85 and he called7121 their names8034 after the names8034 by which834 his father1 had called7121 them.
19 And Isaac's3327 servants5650 digged2658 in the valley,5158 and found4672 there8033 a well875 of springing2416 water.4325
20 And the herdsmen7462 of Gerar1642 did strive7378 with5973 Isaac's3327 herdsmen,7462 saying,559 The water4325 is ours: and he called7121 the name8034 of the well875 Esek;6230 because3588 they strove6229 with5973 him.
21 And they digged2658 another312 well,875 and strove7378 for5921 that also:1571 and he called7121 the name8034 of it Sitnah.7856
22 And he removed6275 from thence,4480 8033 and digged2658 another312 well;875 and for5921 that they strove7378 not:3808 and he called7121 the name8034 of it Rehoboth;7344 and he said,559 For3588 now6258 the LORD3068 hath made room7337 for us, and we shall be fruitful6509 in the land.776
23 And he went up5927 from thence4480 8033 to Beer-sheba.884
24 And the LORD3068 appeared7200 unto413 him the same1931 night,3915 and said,559 I595 am the God430 of Abraham85 thy father:1 fear3372 not,408 for3588 I595 am with854 thee, and will bless1288 thee, and multiply7235 853 thy seed2233 for5668 my servant5650 Abraham's85 sake.
25 And he built1129 an altar4196 there,8033 and called7121 upon the name8034 of the LORD,3068 and pitched5186 his tent168 there:8033 and there8033 Isaac's3327 servants5650 digged3738 a well.875
26 Then Abimelech40 went1980 to413 him from Gerar,4480 1642 and Ahuzzath276 one of his friends,4828 and Phichol6369 the chief captain8269 of his army.6635
27 And Isaac3327 said559 unto413 them, Wherefore4069 come935 ye to413 me, seeing ye859 hate8130 me, and have sent me away7971 from4480 you?
28 And they said,559 We saw certainly7200 7200 that3588 the LORD3068 was1961 with5973 thee: and we said,559 Let there be1961 now4994 an oath423 between996 us, even between996 us and thee, and let us make3772 a covenant1285 with5973 thee;
29 That518 thou wilt do6213 us no hurt,7451 as834 we have not3808 touched5060 thee, and as834 we have done6213 unto5973 thee nothing but7535 good,2896 and have sent thee away7971 in peace:7965 thou859 art now6258 the blessed1288 of the LORD.3068
30 And he made6213 them a feast,4960 and they did eat398 and drink.8354
31 And they rose up quickly7925 in the morning,1242 and swore7650 one376 to another:251 and Isaac3327 sent them away,7971 and they departed1980 from4480 854 him in peace.7965
32 And it came to pass1961 the same1931 day,3117 that Isaac's3327 servants5650 came,935 and told5046 him concerning5921 182 the well875 which834 they had digged,2658 and said559 unto him, We have found4672 water.4325
33 And he called7121 it Shebah:7656 therefore5921 3651 the name8034 of the city5892 is Beer-sheba884 unto5704 this2088 day.3117
34 And Esau6215 was1961 forty705 years8141 old1121 when he took3947 to wife802 853 Judith3067 the daughter1323 of Beeri882 the Hittite,2850 and Bashemath1315 the daughter1323 of Elon356 the Hittite:2850
35 Which were1961 a grief4786 of mind7307 unto Isaac3327 and to Rebekah.7259
1 And it came to pass,1961 that3588 when Isaac3327 was old,2204 and his eyes5869 were dim,3543 so that he could not see,4480 7200 he called7121 853 Esau6215 his eldest1419 son,1121 and said559 unto413 him, My son:1121 and he said559 unto413 him, Behold,2009 here am I.
2 And he said,559 Behold2009 now,4994 I am old,2204 I know3045 not3808 the day3117 of my death:4194
3 Now6258 therefore take,5375 I pray thee,4994 thy weapons,3627 thy quiver8522 and thy bow,7198 and go out3318 to the field,7704 and take6679 me some venison;6718
4 And make6213 me savory meat,4303 such as834 I love,157 and bring935 it to me, that I may eat;398 that5668 my soul5315 may bless1288 thee before2962 I die.4191
5 And Rebekah7259 heard8085 when Isaac3327 spoke1696 to413 Esau6215 his son.1121 And Esau6215 went1980 to the field7704 to hunt6679 for venison,6718 and to bring935 it.
6 And Rebekah7259 spoke559 unto413 Jacob3290 her son,1121 saying,559 Behold,2009 I heard8085 853 thy father1 speak1696 unto413 Esau6215 thy brother,251 saying,559
7 Bring935 me venison,6718 and make6213 me savory meat,4303 that I may eat,398 and bless1288 thee before6440 the LORD3068 before6440 my death.4194
8 Now6258 therefore, my son,1121 obey8085 my voice6963 according to that which834 I589 command6680 thee.
9 Go1980 now4994 to413 the flock,6629 and fetch3947 me from thence4480 8033 two8147 good2896 kids1423 of the goats;5795 and I will make6213 them savory meat4303 for thy father,1 such as834 he loveth:157
10 And thou shalt bring935 it to thy father,1 that he may eat,398 and that5668 834 he may bless1288 thee before6440 his death.4194
11 And Jacob3290 said559 to413 Rebekah7259 his mother,517 Behold,2005 Esau6215 my brother251 is a hairy8163 man,376 and I595 am a smooth2509 man:376
12 My father1 peradventure194 will feel4959 me, and I shall seem1961 to him5869 as a deceiver;8591 and I shall bring935 a curse7045 upon5921 me, and not3808 a blessing.1293
13 And his mother517 said559 unto him, Upon5921 me be thy curse,7045 my son:1121 only389 obey8085 my voice,6963 and go1980 fetch3947 me them.
14 And he went,1980 and fetched,3947 and brought935 them to his mother:517 and his mother517 made6213 savory meat,4303 such as834 his father1 loved.157
15 And Rebekah7259 took3947 853 goodly2530 raiment899 of her eldest1419 son1121 Esau,6215 which834 were with854 her in the house,1004 and put them upon3847 853 Jacob3290 her younger6996 son:1121
16 And she put3847 the skins5785 of the kids1423 of the goats5795 upon5921 his hands,3027 and upon5921 the smooth2513 of his neck:6677
17 And she gave5414 853 the savory meat4303 and the bread,3899 which834 she had prepared,6213 into the hand3027 of her son1121 Jacob.3290
18 And he came935 unto413 his father,1 and said,559 My father:1 and he said,559 Here2009 am I; who4310 art thou,859 my son?1121
19 And Jacob3290 said559 unto413 his father,1 I595 am Esau6215 thy firstborn;1060 I have done6213 according as834 thou biddest1696 413 me: arise,6965 I pray thee,4994 sit3427 and eat398 of my venison,4480 6718 that5668 thy soul5315 may bless1288 me.
20 And Isaac3327 said559 unto413 his son,1121 How4100 is it2088 that thou hast found4672 it so quickly,4116 my son?1121 And he said,559 Because3588 the LORD3068 thy God430 brought7136 it to6440 me.
21 And Isaac3327 said559 unto413 Jacob,3290 Come near,5066 I pray thee,4994 that I may feel4184 thee, my son,1121 whether thou859 be my very2088 son1121 Esau6215 or518 not.3808
22 And Jacob3290 went near5066 unto413 Isaac3327 his father;1 and he felt4959 him, and said,559 The voice6963 is Jacob's3290 voice,6963 but the hands3027 are the hands3027 of Esau.6215
23 And he discerned5234 him not,3808 because3588 his hands3027 were1961 hairy,8163 as his brother251 Esau's6215 hands:3027 so he blessed1288 him.
24 And he said,559 Art thou859 my very2088 son1121 Esau?6215 And he said,559 I589 am.
25 And he said,559 Bring it near5066 to me, and I will eat398 of my son's1121 venison,4480 6718 that4616 my soul5315 may bless1288 thee. And he brought it near5066 to him, and he did eat:398 and he brought935 him wine,3196 and he drank.8354
26 And his father1 Isaac3327 said559 unto413 him, Come near5066 now,4994 and kiss5401 me, my son.1121
27 And he came near,5066 and kissed5401 him: and he smelled7306 853 the smell7381 of his raiment,899 and blessed1288 him, and said,559 See,7200 the smell7381 of my son1121 is as the smell7381 of a field7704 which834 the LORD3068 hath blessed:1288
28 Therefore God430 give5414 thee of the dew4480 2919 of heaven,8064 and the fatness4924 of the earth,776 and plenty7230 of corn1715 and wine:8492
29 Let people5971 serve5647 thee, and nations3816 bow down7812 to thee: be1933 lord1376 over thy brethren,251 and let thy mother's517 sons1121 bow down7812 to thee: cursed779 be every one that curseth779 thee, and blessed1288 be he that blesseth1288 thee.
30 And it came to pass,1961 as soon as834 Isaac3327 had made an end3615 of blessing1288 853 Jacob,3290 and Jacob3290 was1961 yet389 scarce gone out3318 3318 from4480 854 the presence6440 of Isaac3327 his father,1 that Esau6215 his brother251 came in935 from his hunting.4480 6718
31 And he1931 also1571 had made6213 savory meat,4303 and brought935 it unto his father,1 and said559 unto his father,1 Let my father1 arise,6965 and eat398 of his son's1121 venison,4480 6718 that5668 thy soul5315 may bless1288 me.
32 And Isaac3327 his father1 said559 unto him, Who4310 art thou?859 And he said,559 I589 am thy son,1121 thy firstborn1060 Esau.6215
33 And Isaac3327 trembled2729 very exceedingly,2731 1419 5704 3966 and said,559 Who?4310 where645 is he1931 that hath taken6679 venison,6718 and brought935 it me, and I have eaten398 of all4480 3605 before2962 thou camest,935 and have blessed1288 him? yea,1571 and he shall be1961 blessed.1288
34 And when Esau6215 heard8085 853 the words1697 of his father,1 he cried6817 with a great1419 and5704 exceeding3966 bitter4751 cry,6818 and said559 unto his father,1 Bless1288 me, even me589 also,1571 O my father.1
35 And he said,559 Thy brother251 came935 with subtlety,4820 and hath taken away3947 thy blessing.1293
36 And he said,559 Is not he rightly3588 named7121 8034 Jacob?3290 for he hath supplanted6117 me these2088 two times:6471 he took away3947 853 my birthright;1062 and, behold,2009 now6258 he hath taken away3947 my blessing.1293 And he said,559 Hast thou not3808 reserved680 a blessing1293 for me?
37 And Isaac3327 answered6030 and said559 unto Esau,6215 Behold,2005 I have made7760 him thy lord,1376 and all3605 his brethren251 have I given5414 to him for servants;5650 and with corn1715 and wine8492 have I sustained5564 him: and what4100 shall I do6213 now645 unto thee, my son?1121
38 And Esau6215 said559 unto413 his father,1 Hast thou but one259 blessing,1293 my father?1 bless1288 me, even me589 also,1571 O my father.1 And Esau6215 lifted up5375 his voice,6963 and wept.1058
39 And Isaac3327 his father1 answered6030 and said559 unto413 him, Behold,2009 thy dwelling4186 shall be1961 the fatness4480 4924 of the earth,776 and of the dew4480 2919 of heaven8064 from above;4480 5920
40 And by5921 thy sword2719 shalt thou live,2421 and shalt serve5647 thy brother;251 and it shall come to pass1961 when834 thou shalt have the dominion,7300 that thou shalt break6561 his yoke5923 from off4480 5921 thy neck.6677
41 And Esau6215 hated7852 853 Jacob3290 because of5921 the blessing1293 wherewith834 his father1 blessed1288 him: and Esau6215 said559 in his heart,3820 The days3117 of mourning60 for my father1 are at hand;7126 then will I slay2026 853 my brother251 Jacob.3290
42 And 853 these words1697 of Esau6215 her elder1419 son1121 were told5046 to Rebekah:7259 and she sent7971 and called7121 Jacob3290 her younger6996 son,1121 and said559 unto413 him, Behold,2009 thy brother251 Esau,6215 as touching thee, doth comfort himself,5162 purposing to kill2026 thee.
43 Now6258 therefore, my son,1121 obey8085 my voice;6963 and arise,6965 flee1272 thou to413 Laban3837 my brother251 to Haran;2771
44 And tarry3427 with5973 him a few259 days,3117 until5704 834 thy brother's251 fury2534 turn away;7725
45 Until5704 thy brother's251 anger639 turn away7725 from4480 thee, and he forget7911 853 that which834 thou hast done6213 to him: then I will send,7971 and fetch3947 thee from thence:4480 8033 why4100 should I be deprived7921 also1571 of you both8147 in one259 day?3117
46 And Rebekah7259 said559 to413 Isaac,3327 I am weary6973 of my life2416 because4480 6440 of the daughters1323 of Heth:2845 if518 Jacob3290 take3947 a wife802 of the daughters4480 1323 of Heth,2845 such as these428 which are of the daughters4480 1323 of the land,776 what good4100 shall my life2416 do me?
1 And Isaac3327 called7121 413 Jacob,3290 and blessed1288 him, and charged6680 him, and said559 unto him, Thou shalt not3808 take3947 a wife802 of the daughters4480 1323 of Canaan.3667
2 Arise,6965 go1980 to Padan-aram,6307 to the house1004 of Bethuel1328 thy mother's517 father;1 and take3947 thee a wife802 from thence4480 8033 of the daughters4480 1323 of Laban3837 thy mother's517 brother.251
3 And God410 Almighty7706 bless1288 thee, and make thee fruitful,6509 and multiply7235 thee, that thou mayest be1961 a multitude6951 of people;5971
4 And give5414 thee 853 the blessing1293 of Abraham,85 to thee, and to thy seed2233 with854 thee; that thou mayest inherit3423 853 the land776 wherein thou art a stranger,4033 which834 God430 gave5414 unto Abraham.85
5 And Isaac3327 sent away7971 853 Jacob:3290 and he went1980 to Padan-aram6307 unto413 Laban,3837 son1121 of Bethuel1328 the Syrian,761 the brother251 of Rebekah,7259 Jacob's3290 and Esau's6215 mother.517
6 When Esau6215 saw7200 that3588 Isaac3327 had blessed1288 853 Jacob,3290 and sent him away7971 853 to Padan-aram,6307 to take3947 him a wife802 from thence;4480 8033 and that as he blessed1288 him he gave him a charge,6680 5921 saying,559 Thou shalt not3808 take3947 a wife802 of the daughters4480 1323 of Canaan;3667
7 And that Jacob3290 obeyed8085 413 his father1 and his mother,517 and was gone1980 to Padan-aram;6307
8 And Esau6215 seeing7200 that3588 the daughters1323 of Canaan3667 pleased not7451 5869 Isaac3327 his father;1
9 Then went1980 Esau6215 unto413 Ishmael,3458 and took3947 unto5921 the wives802 which he had 853 Mahalath4258 the daughter1323 of Ishmael3458 Abraham's85 son,1121 the sister269 of Nebajoth,5032 to be his wife.802
10 And Jacob3290 went out3318 from Beer-sheba,4480 884 and went1980 toward Haran.2771
11 And he lighted6293 upon a certain place,4725 and tarried there all night,3885 8033 because3588 the sun8121 was set;935 and he took3947 of the stones4480 68 of that place,4725 and put7760 them for his pillows,4763 and lay down7901 in that1931 place4725 to sleep.
12 And he dreamed,2492 and behold2009 a ladder5551 set up5324 on the earth,776 and the top7218 of it reached5060 to heaven:8064 and behold2009 the angels4397 of God430 ascending5927 and descending3381 on it.
13 And, behold,2009 the LORD3068 stood5324 above5921 it, and said,559 I589 am the LORD3068 God430 of Abraham85 thy father,1 and the God430 of Isaac:3327 the land776 whereon834 5921 thou859 liest,7901 to thee will I give5414 it, and to thy seed;2233
14 And thy seed2233 shall be1961 as the dust6083 of the earth,776 and thou shalt spread abroad6555 to the west,3220 and to the east,6924 and to the north,6828 and to the south:5045 and in thee and in thy seed2233 shall all3605 the families4940 of the earth127 be blessed.1288
15 And, behold,2009 I595 am with5973 thee, and will keep8104 thee in all3605 places whither834 thou goest,1980 and will bring thee again7725 into413 this2063 land;127 for3588 I will not3808 leave5800 thee, until5704 834 518 I have done6213 853 that which834 I have spoken1696 to thee of.
16 And Jacob3290 awaked3364 out of his sleep,4480 8142 and he said,559 Surely403 the LORD3068 is3426 in this2088 place;4725 and I595 knew3045 it not.3808
17 And he was afraid,3372 and said,559 How4100 dreadful3372 is this2088 place!4725 this2088 is none369 other but3588 518 the house1004 of God,430 and this2088 is the gate8179 of heaven.8064
18 And Jacob3290 rose up early7925 in the morning,1242 and took3947 853 the stone68 that834 he had put7760 for his pillows,4763 and set it up7760 853 for a pillar,4676 and poured3332 oil8081 upon5921 the top7218 of it.
19 And he called7121 853 the name8034 of that1931 place4725 Bethel:1008 but199 the name8034 of that city5892 was called Luz3870 at the first.7223
20 And Jacob3290 vowed5087 a vow,5088 saying,559 If518 God430 will be1961 with5973 me, and will keep8104 me in this2088 way1870 that834 I595 go,1980 and will give5414 me bread3899 to eat,398 and raiment899 to put on,3847
21 So that I come again7725 to413 my father's1 house1004 in peace;7965 then shall the LORD3068 be1961 my God:430
22 And this2063 stone,68 which834 I have set7760 for a pillar,4676 shall be1961 God's430 house:1004 and of all3605 that834 thou shalt give5414 me I will surely give the tenth6237 6237 unto thee.
1 Then Jacob3290 went on his journey,5375 7272 and came1980 into the land776 of the people1121 of the east.6924
2 And he looked,7200 and behold2009 a well875 in the field,7704 and, lo,2009 there8033 were three7969 flocks5739 of sheep6629 lying7257 by5921 it; for3588 out of4480 that1931 well875 they watered8248 the flocks:5739 and a great1419 stone68 was upon5921 the well's875 mouth.6310
3 And thither8033 were all3605 the flocks5739 gathered:622 and they rolled1556 853 the stone68 from4480 5921 the well's875 mouth,6310 and watered8248 853 the sheep,6629 and put7725 853 the stone68 again upon5921 the well's875 mouth6310 in his place.4725
4 And Jacob3290 said559 unto them, My brethren,251 whence4480 370 be ye?859 And they said,559 Of Haran4480 2771 are we.587
5 And he said559 unto them, Know3045 ye 853 Laban3837 the son1121 of Nahor?5152 And they said,559 We know3045 him.
6 And he said559 unto them, Is he well?7965 And they said,559 He is well:7965 and, behold,2009 Rachel7354 his daughter1323 cometh935 with5973 the sheep.6629
7 And he said,559 Lo,2005 it is yet5750 high1419 day,3117 neither3808 is it time6256 that the cattle4735 should be gathered together:622 water8248 ye the sheep,6629 and go1980 and feed7462 them.
8 And they said,559 We cannot,3808 3201 until5704 834 all3605 the flocks5739 be gathered together,622 and till they roll1556 853 the stone68 from4480 5921 the well's875 mouth;6310 then we water8248 the sheep.6629
9 And while he yet5750 spoke1696 with5973 them, Rachel7354 came935 with5973 her father's1 sheep:6629 for3588 she1931 kept7462 them.
10 And it came to pass,1961 when834 Jacob3290 saw7200 853 Rachel7354 the daughter1323 of Laban3837 his mother's517 brother,251 and the sheep6629 of Laban3837 his mother's517 brother,251 that Jacob3290 went near,5066 and rolled1556 853 the stone68 from4480 5921 the well's875 mouth,6310 and watered8248 853 the flock6629 of Laban3837 his mother's517 brother.251
11 And Jacob3290 kissed5401 Rachel,7354 and lifted up5375 853 his voice,6963 and wept.1058
12 And Jacob3290 told5046 Rachel7354 that3588 he1931 was her father's1 brother,251 and that3588 he1931 was Rebekah's7259 son:1121 and she ran7323 and told5046 her father.1
13 And it came to pass,1961 when Laban3837 heard8085 853 the tidings8088 of Jacob3290 his sister's269 son,1121 that he ran7323 to meet7125 him, and embraced2263 him, and kissed5401 him, and brought935 him to413 his house.1004 And he told5608 Laban3837 853 all3605 these428 things.1697
14 And Laban3837 said559 to him, Surely389 thou859 art my bone6106 and my flesh.1320 And he abode3427 with5973 him the space3117 of a month.2320
15 And Laban3837 said559 unto Jacob,3290 Because3588 thou859 art my brother,251 shouldest thou therefore serve5647 me for naught?2600 tell5046 me, what4100 shall thy wages4909 be?
16 And Laban3837 had two8147 daughters:1323 the name8034 of the elder1419 was Leah,3812 and the name8034 of the younger6996 was Rachel.7354
17 Leah3812 was tender7390 eyed;5869 but Rachel7354 was1961 beautiful3303 8389 and well3303 favored.4758
18 And Jacob3290 loved157 853 Rachel;7354 and said,559 I will serve5647 thee seven7651 years8141 for Rachel7354 thy younger6996 daughter.1323
19 And Laban3837 said,559 It is better2896 that I give5414 her to thee, than that I should give4480 5414 her to another312 man:376 abide3427 with5973 me.
20 And Jacob3290 served5647 seven7651 years8141 for Rachel;7354 and they seemed1961 5869 unto him but a few259 days,3117 for the love160 he had to her.
21 And Jacob3290 said559 unto413 Laban,3837 Give3051 me 853 my wife,802 for3588 my days3117 are fulfilled,4390 that I may go in935 unto413 her.
22 And Laban3837 gathered together622 853 all3605 the men376 of the place,4725 and made6213 a feast.4960
23 And it came to pass1961 in the evening,6153 that he took3947 853 Leah3812 his daughter,1323 and brought935 her to413 him; and he went in935 unto413 her.
24 And Laban3837 gave5414 unto his daughter1323 Leah3812 853 Zilpah2153 his maid8198 for a handmaid.8198
25 And it came to pass,1961 that in the morning,1242 behold,2009 it1931 was Leah:3812 and he said559 to413 Laban,3837 What4100 is this2063 thou hast done6213 unto me? did not3808 I serve5647 with5973 thee for Rachel?7354 wherefore4100 then hast thou beguiled7411 me?
26 And Laban3837 said,559 It must not3808 be so3651 done6213 in our country,4725 to give5414 the younger6810 before6440 the firstborn.1067
27 Fulfill4390 her2063 week,7620 and we will give5414 thee 853 this2063 also1571 for the service5656 which834 thou shalt serve5647 with5973 me yet5750 seven7651 other312 years.8141
28 And Jacob3290 did6213 so,3651 and fulfilled4390 her2063 week:7620 and he gave5414 him 853 Rachel7354 his daughter1323 to wife802 also.
29 And Laban3837 gave5414 to Rachel7354 his daughter1323 853 Bilhah1090 his handmaid8198 to be her maid.8198
30 And he went in935 also1571 unto413 Rachel,7354 and he loved157 also1571 853 Rachel7354 more than Leah,4480 3812 and served5647 with5973 him yet5750 seven7651 other312 years.8141
31 And when the LORD3068 saw7200 that3588 Leah3812 was hated,8130 he opened6605 853 her womb:7358 but Rachel7354 was barren.6135
32 And Leah3812 conceived,2029 and bore3205 a son,1121 and she called7121 his name8034 Reuben:7205 for3588 she said,559 Surely3588 the LORD3068 hath looked7200 upon my affliction;6040 now6258 therefore3588 my husband376 will love157 me.
33 And she conceived2029 again,5750 and bore3205 a son;1121 and said,559 Because3588 the LORD3068 hath heard8085 that3588 I595 was hated,8130 he hath therefore given5414 me 853 this2088 son also:1571 and she called7121 his name8034 Simeon.8095
34 And she conceived2029 again,5750 and bore3205 a son;1121 and said,559 Now6258 this time6471 will my husband376 be joined3867 unto413 me, because3588 I have born3205 him three7969 sons:1121 therefore5921 3651 was his name8034 called7121 Levi.3878
35 And she conceived2029 again,5750 and bore3205 a son:1121 and she said,559 Now6471 will I praise3034 853 the LORD:3068 therefore5921 3651 she called7121 his name8034 Judah;3063 and left5975 bearing.4480 3205
1 And when Rachel7354 saw7200 that3588 she bore Jacob no children,3205 3808 3290 Rachel7354 envied7065 her sister;269 and said559 unto413 Jacob,3290 Give3051 me children,1121 or518 else369 I595 die.4191
2 And Jacob's3290 anger639 was kindled2734 against Rachel:7354 and he said,559 Am I595 in God's430 stead,8478 who834 hath withheld4513 from4480 thee the fruit6529 of the womb?990
3 And she said,559 Behold2009 my maid519 Bilhah,1090 go in935 unto413 her; and she shall bear3205 upon5921 my knees,1290 that I595 may also1571 have children1129 by4480 her.
4 And she gave5414 him 853 Bilhah1090 her handmaid8198 to wife:802 and Jacob3290 went in935 unto413 her.
5 And Bilhah1090 conceived,2029 and bore3205 Jacob3290 a son.1121
6 And Rachel7354 said,559 God430 hath judged1777 me, and hath also1571 heard8085 my voice,6963 and hath given5414 me a son:1121 therefore5921 3651 called7121 she his name8034 Dan.1835
7 And Bilhah1090 Rachel's7354 maid8198 conceived2029 again,5750 and bore3205 Jacob3290 a second8145 son.1121
8 And Rachel7354 said,559 With great430 wrestlings5319 have I wrestled6617 with5973 my sister,269 and1571 I have prevailed:3201 and she called7121 his name8034 Naphtali.5321
9 When Leah3812 saw7200 that3588 she had left5975 bearing,4480 3205 she took3947 853 Zilpah2153 her maid,8198 and gave5414 her Jacob3290 to wife.802
10 And Zilpah2153 Leah's3812 maid8198 bore3205 Jacob3290 a son.1121
11 And Leah3812 said,559 A troop cometh:1413 and she called7121 853 his name8034 Gad.1410
12 And Zilpah2153 Leah's3812 maid8198 bore3205 Jacob3290 a second8145 son.1121
13 And Leah3812 said,559 Happy837 am I, for3588 the daughters1323 will call me blessed:833 and she called7121 853 his name8034 Asher.836
14 And Reuben7205 went1980 in the days3117 of wheat2406 harvest,7105 and found4672 mandrakes1736 in the field,7704 and brought935 them unto413 his mother517 Leah.3812 Then Rachel7354 said559 to413 Leah,3812 Give5414 me, I pray thee,4994 of thy son's1121 mandrakes.4480 1736
15 And she said559 unto her, Is it a small matter4592 that thou hast taken3947 853 my husband?376 and wouldest thou take away3947 853 my son's1121 mandrakes1736 also?1571 And Rachel7354 said,559 Therefore3651 he shall lie7901 with5973 thee tonight3915 for8478 thy son's1121 mandrakes.1736
16 And Jacob3290 came935 out of4480 the field7704 in the evening,6153 and Leah3812 went out3318 to meet7125 him, and said,559 Thou must come in935 unto413 me; for3588 surely I have hired7936 7936 thee with my son's1121 mandrakes.1736 And he lay7901 with5973 her that1931 night.3915
17 And God430 hearkened8085 unto413 Leah,3812 and she conceived,2029 and bore3205 Jacob3290 the fifth2549 son.1121
18 And Leah3812 said,559 God430 hath given5414 me my hire,7939 because834 I have given5414 my maiden8198 to my husband:376 and she called7121 his name8034 Issachar.3485
19 And Leah3812 conceived2029 again,5750 and bore3205 Jacob3290 the sixth8345 son.1121
20 And Leah3812 said,559 God430 hath endued2064 me with a good2896 dowry;2065 now6471 will my husband376 dwell with2082 me, because3588 I have born3205 him six8337 sons:1121 and she called7121 853 his name8034 Zebulun.2074
21 And afterwards310 she bore3205 a daughter,1323 and called7121 853 her name8034 Dinah.1783
22 And God430 remembered2142 853 Rachel,7354 and God430 hearkened8085 to413 her, and opened6605 853 her womb.7358
23 And she conceived,2029 and bore3205 a son;1121 and said,559 God430 hath taken away622 853 my reproach:2781
24 And she called7121 853 his name8034 Joseph;3130 and said,559 The LORD3068 shall add3254 to me another312 son.1121
25 And it came to pass,1961 when834 Rachel7354 had born3205 853 Joseph,3130 that Jacob3290 said559 unto413 Laban,3837 Send me away,7971 that I may go1980 unto413 mine own place,4725 and to my country.776
26 Give5414 me 853 my wives802 and my children,3206 for whom834 2004 I have served5647 thee, and let me go:1980 for3588 thou859 knowest3045 853 my service5656 which834 I have done5647 thee.
27 And Laban3837 said559 unto413 him, I pray thee,4994 if518 I have found4672 favor2580 in thine eyes,5869 tarry: for I have learned by experience5172 that the LORD3068 hath blessed1288 me for thy sake.1558
28 And he said,559 Appoint5344 5921 me thy wages,7939 and I will give5414 it.
29 And he said559 unto413 him, Thou859 knowest3045 853 how834 I have served5647 thee, and how834 thy cattle4735 was1961 with854 me.
30 For3588 it was little4592 which834 thou hadst1961 before6440 I came, and it is now increased6555 unto a multitude;7230 and the LORD3068 hath blessed1288 thee since my coming:7272 and now6258 when4970 shall I595 provide6213 for mine own house1004 also?1571
31 And he said,559 What4100 shall I give5414 thee? And Jacob3290 said,559 Thou shalt not3808 give5414 me any thing:3972 if518 thou wilt do6213 this2088 thing1697 for me, I will again7725 feed7462 and keep8104 thy flock:6629
32 I will pass through5674 all3605 thy flock6629 today,3117 removing5493 from thence4480 8033 all3605 the speckled5348 and spotted2921 cattle,7716 and all3605 the brown2345 cattle7716 among the sheep,3775 and the spotted2921 and speckled5348 among the goats:5795 and of such shall be1961 my hire.7939
33 So shall my righteousness6666 answer6030 for me in time3117 to come,4279 when3588 it shall come935 for5921 my hire7939 before thy face:6440 every one3605 that834 is not369 speckled5348 and spotted2921 among the goats,5795 and brown2345 among the sheep,3775 that1931 shall be counted stolen1589 with854 me.
34 And Laban3837 said,559 Behold,2005 I would3863 it might be1961 according to thy word.1697
35 And he removed5493 that1931 day3117 853 the he goats8495 that were ringstreaked6124 and spotted,2921 and all3605 the she goats5795 that were speckled5348 and spotted,2921 and every one3605 that834 had some white3836 in it, and all3605 the brown2345 among the sheep,3775 and gave5414 them into the hand3027 of his sons.1121
36 And he set7760 three7969 days'3117 journey1870 between996 himself and Jacob:3290 and Jacob3290 fed7462 853 the rest3498 of Laban's3837 flocks.6629
37 And Jacob3290 took3947 him rods4731 of green3892 poplar,3839 and of the hazel3869 and chestnut tree;6196 and peeled6478 white3836 streaks6479 in them,2004 and made the white3836 appear4286 which834 was in5921 the rods.4731
38 And he set3322 853 the rods4731 which834 he had peeled6478 before5227 the flocks6629 in the gutters7298 in the watering4325 troughs8268 when834 the flocks6629 came935 to drink,8354 that they should conceive3179 when they came935 to drink.8354
39 And the flocks6629 conceived3179 before413 the rods,4731 and brought forth3205 cattle6629 ringstreaked,6124 speckled,5348 and spotted.2921
40 And Jacob3290 did separate6504 the lambs,3775 and set5414 the faces6440 of the flocks6629 toward413 the ringstreaked,6124 and all3605 the brown2345 in the flock6629 of Laban;3837 and he put7896 his own flocks5739 by themselves,905 and put7896 them not3808 unto5921 Laban's3837 cattle.6629
41 And it came to pass,1961 whensoever3605 the stronger7194 cattle6629 did conceive,3179 that Jacob3290 laid7760 853 the rods4731 before the eyes5869 of the cattle6629 in the gutters,7298 that they might conceive3179 among the rods.4731
42 But when the cattle6629 were feeble,5848 he put7760 them not3808 in: so the feebler5848 were1961 Laban's,3837 and the stronger7194 Jacob's.3290
43 And the man376 increased6555 exceedingly,3966 3966 and had1961 much7227 cattle,6629 and maidservants,8198 and menservants,5650 and camels,1581 and asses.2543
1 And he heard8085 853 the words1697 of Laban's3837 sons,1121 saying,559 Jacob3290 hath taken away3947 853 all3605 that834 was our father's;1 and of that which4480 834 was our father's1 hath he gotten6213 853 all3605 this2088 glory.3519
2 And Jacob3290 beheld7200 853 the countenance6440 of Laban,3837 and, behold,2009 it was not369 toward5973 him as before.8543 8032
3 And the LORD3068 said559 unto413 Jacob,3290 Return7725 unto413 the land776 of thy fathers,1 and to thy kindred;4138 and I will be1961 with5973 thee.
4 And Jacob3290 sent7971 and called7121 Rachel7354 and Leah3812 to the field7704 unto413 his flock,6629
5 And said559 unto them, I595 see7200 853 your father's1 countenance,6440 that3588 it is not369 toward413 me as before;8543 8032 but the God430 of my father1 hath been1961 with5973 me.
6 And ye859 know3045 that3588 with all3605 my power3581 I have served5647 853 your father.1
7 And your father1 hath deceived2048 me, and changed2498 853 my wages4909 ten6235 times;4489 but God430 suffered5414 him not3808 to hurt7489 5978 me.
8 If518 he said559 thus,3541 The speckled5348 shall be1961 thy wages;7939 then all3605 the cattle6629 bore3205 speckled:5348 and if518 he said559 thus,3541 The ringstreaked6124 shall be1961 thy hire;7939 then bore3205 all3605 the cattle6629 ringstreaked.6124
9 Thus God430 hath taken away5337 853 the cattle4735 of your father,1 and given5414 them to me.
10 And it came to pass1961 at the time6256 that the cattle6629 conceived,3179 that I lifted up5375 mine eyes,5869 and saw7200 in a dream,2472 and, behold,2009 the rams6260 which leaped5927 upon5921 the cattle6629 were ringstreaked,6124 speckled,5348 and grizzled.1261
11 And the angel4397 of God430 spoke559 unto413 me in a dream,2472 saying, Jacob:3290 And I said,559 Here2009 am I.
12 And he said,559 Lift up5375 now4994 thine eyes,5869 and see,7200 all3605 the rams6260 which leap5927 upon5921 the cattle6629 are ringstreaked,6124 speckled,5348 and grizzled:1261 for3588 I have seen7200 853 all3605 that834 Laban3837 doeth6213 unto thee.
13 I595 am the God410 of Bethel,1008 where834 8033 thou anointedst4886 the pillar,4676 and where834 8033 thou vowedst5087 a vow5088 unto me: now6258 arise,6965 get thee out3318 from4480 this2063 land,776 and return7725 unto413 the land776 of thy kindred.4138
14 And Rachel7354 and Leah3812 answered6030 and said559 unto him, Is there yet5750 any portion2506 or inheritance5159 for us in our father's1 house?1004
15 Are we not3808 counted2803 of him strangers?5237 for3588 he hath sold4376 us, and hath quite devoured398 398 also1571 853 our money.3701
16 For3588 all3605 the riches6239 which834 God430 hath taken5337 from our father,4480 1 that1931 is ours, and our children's:1121 now6258 then, whatsoever3605 834 God430 hath said559 unto413 thee, do.6213
17 Then Jacob3290 rose up,6965 and set5375 853 his sons1121 and his wives802 upon5921 camels;1581
18 And he carried away5090 853 all3605 his cattle,4735 and all3605 his goods7399 which834 he had gotten,7408 the cattle4735 of his getting,7075 which834 he had gotten7408 in Padan-aram,6307 for to go935 to413 Isaac3327 his father1 in the land776 of Canaan.3667
19 And Laban3837 went1980 to shear1494 853 his sheep:6629 and Rachel7354 had stolen1589 853 the images8655 that834 were her father's.1
20 And Jacob3290 stole away1589 853 unawares3820 to Laban3837 the Syrian,761 in that5921 he told5046 him not1097 that3588 he1931 fled.1272
21 So he1931 fled1272 with all3605 that834 he had; and he rose up,6965 and passed over5674 853 the river,5104 and set7760 853 his face6440 toward the mount2022 Gilead.1568
22 And it was told5046 Laban3837 on the third7992 day3117 that3588 Jacob3290 was fled.1272
23 And he took3947 853 his brethren251 with5973 him, and pursued7291 after310 him seven7651 days'3117 journey;1870 and they overtook1692 him in the mount2022 Gilead.1568
24 And God430 came935 to413 Laban3837 the Syrian761 in a dream2472 by night,3915 and said559 unto him, Take heed8104 that6435 thou speak1696 not to5973 Jacob3290 either good4480 2896 or5704 bad.7451
25 Then Laban3837 overtook5381 853 Jacob.3290 Now Jacob3290 had pitched8628 853 his tent168 in the mount:2022 and Laban3837 with854 his brethren251 pitched8628 in the mount2022 of Gilead.1568
26 And Laban3837 said559 to Jacob,3290 What4100 hast thou done,6213 that thou hast stolen away1589 853 unawares3824 to me, and carried away5090 853 my daughters,1323 as captives7617 taken with the sword?2719
27 Wherefore4100 didst thou flee away2244 secretly,1272 and steal away1589 from me; and didst not3808 tell5046 me, that I might have sent thee away7971 with mirth,8057 and with songs,7892 with tabret,8596 and with harp?3658
28 And hast not3808 suffered5203 me to kiss5401 my sons1121 and my daughters?1323 thou hast now6258 done foolishly5528 in so doing.6213
29 It is3426 in the power410 of my hand3027 to do6213 you hurt:7451 but the God430 of your father1 spoke559 unto413 me last night,570 saying,559 Take thou heed8104 that thou speak4480 1696 not to5973 Jacob3290 either good4480 2896 or5704 bad.7451
30 And now,6258 though thou wouldest needs be gone,1980 1980 because3588 thou sore longedst3700 3700 after thy father's1 house,1004 yet wherefore4100 hast thou stolen1589 853 my gods?430
31 And Jacob3290 answered6030 and said559 to Laban,3837 Because3588 I was afraid:3372 for3588 I said,559 Peradventure6435 thou wouldest take by force1497 853 thy daughters1323 from4480 5973 me.
32 With5973 whomsoever834 thou findest4672 853 thy gods,430 let him not3808 live:2421 before5048 our brethren251 discern5234 thou what4100 is thine with5973 me, and take3947 it to thee. For Jacob3290 knew3045 not3808 that3588 Rachel7354 had stolen1589 them.
33 And Laban3837 went935 into Jacob's3290 tent,168 and into Leah's3812 tent,168 and into the two8147 maidservants'519 tents;168 but he found4672 them not.3808 Then went3318 he out of Leah's tent,4480 168 3812 and entered935 into Rachel's7354 tent.168
34 Now Rachel7354 had taken3947 853 the images,8655 and put7760 them in the camel's1581 furniture,3733 and sat3427 upon5921 them. And Laban3837 searched4959 853 all3605 the tent,168 but found4672 them not.3808
35 And she said559 to413 her father,1 Let it not408 displease2734 5869 my lord113 that3588 I cannot3808 3201 rise up6965 before4480 6440 thee; for3588 the custom1870 of women802 is upon me. And he searched,2664 but found4672 not3808 853 the images.8655
36 And Jacob3290 was wroth,2734 and chided7378 with Laban:3837 and Jacob3290 answered6030 and said559 to Laban,3837 What4100 is my trespass?6588 what4100 is my sin,2403 that3588 thou hast so hotly pursued1814 after310 me?
37 Whereas3588 thou hast searched4959 853 all3605 my stuff,3627 what4100 hast thou found4672 of all4480 3605 thy household1004 stuff?3627 set7760 it here3541 before5048 my brethren251 and thy brethren,251 that they may judge3198 between996 us both.8147
38 This2088 twenty6242 years8141 have I595 been with5973 thee; thy ewes7353 and thy she goats5795 have not3808 cast their young,7921 and the rams352 of thy flock6629 have I not3808 eaten.398
39 That which was torn2966 of beasts I brought935 not3808 unto413 thee; I595 bore the loss2398 of it; of my hand4480 3027 didst thou require1245 it, whether stolen1589 by day,3117 or stolen1589 by night.3915
40 Thus I was;1961 in the day3117 the drought2721 consumed398 me, and the frost7140 by night;3915 and my sleep8142 departed5074 from mine eyes.4480 5869
41 Thus2088 have I been twenty6242 years8141 in thy house;1004 I served5647 thee fourteen702 6240 years8141 for thy two8147 daughters,1323 and six8337 years8141 for thy cattle:6629 and thou hast changed2498 853 my wages4909 ten6235 times.4489
42 Except3884 the God430 of my father,1 the God430 of Abraham,85 and the fear6343 of Isaac,3327 had been1961 with me, surely3588 thou hadst sent me away7971 now6258 empty.7387 God430 hath seen7200 853 mine affliction6040 and the labor3018 of my hands,3709 and rebuked3198 thee last night.570
43 And Laban3837 answered6030 and said559 unto413 Jacob,3290 These daughters1323 are my daughters,1323 and these children1121 are my children,1121 and these cattle6629 are my cattle,6629 and all3605 that834 thou859 seest7200 is mine: and what4100 can I do6213 this day3117 unto these428 my daughters,1323 or176 unto their children1121 which834 they have born?3205
44 Now6258 therefore come1980 thou, let us make3772 a covenant,1285 I589 and thou;859 and let it be1961 for a witness5707 between996 me and thee.
45 And Jacob3290 took3947 a stone,68 and set it up7311 for a pillar.4676
46 And Jacob3290 said559 unto his brethren,251 Gather3950 stones;68 and they took3947 stones,68 and made6213 an heap:1530 and they did eat398 there8033 upon5921 the heap.1530
47 And Laban3837 called7121 it Jegar-sahadutha:3026 but Jacob3290 called7121 it Galeed.1567
48 And Laban3837 said,559 This2088 heap1530 is a witness5707 between996 me and thee this day.3117 Therefore5921 3651 was the name8034 of it called7121 Galeed;1567
49 And Mizpah;4709 for834 he said,559 The LORD3068 watch6822 between996 me and thee, when3588 we are absent5641 one376 from another.4480 7453
50 If518 thou shalt afflict6031 853 my daughters,1323 or if518 thou shalt take3947 other wives802 beside5921 my daughters,1323 no369 man376 is with5973 us; see,7200 God430 is witness5707 between996 me and thee.
51 And Laban3837 said559 to Jacob,3290 Behold2009 this2088 heap,1530 and behold2009 this pillar,4676 which834 I have cast3384 between996 me and thee;
52 This2088 heap1530 be witness,5707 and this pillar4676 be witness,5713 that518 I589 will not3808 pass over5674 853 this2088 heap1530 to413 thee, and that518 thou859 shalt not3808 pass over5674 853 this2088 heap1530 and this2063 pillar4676 unto413 me, for harm.7451
53 The God430 of Abraham,85 and the God430 of Nahor,5152 the God430 of their father,1 judge8199 between996 us. And Jacob3290 swore7650 by the fear6343 of his father1 Isaac.3327
54 Then Jacob3290 offered2076 sacrifice2077 upon the mount,2022 and called7121 his brethren251 to eat398 bread:3899 and they did eat398 bread,3899 and tarried all night3885 in the mount.2022
55 And early in the morning1242 Laban3837 rose up,7925 and kissed5401 his sons1121 and his daughters,1323 and blessed1288 them: and Laban3837 departed,1980 and returned7725 unto his place.4725
1 And Jacob3290 went1980 on his way,1870 and the angels4397 of God430 met6293 him.
2 And when834 Jacob3290 saw7200 them, he said,559 This2088 is God's430 host:4264 and he called7121 the name8034 of that1931 place4725 Mahanaim.4266
3 And Jacob3290 sent7971 messengers4397 before6440 him to413 Esau6215 his brother251 unto the land776 of Seir,8165 the country7704 of Edom.123
4 And he commanded6680 them, saying,559 Thus3541 shall ye speak559 unto my lord113 Esau;6215 Thy servant5650 Jacob3290 saith559 thus,3541 I have sojourned1481 with5973 Laban,3837 and stayed there309 until5704 now:6258
5 And I have1961 oxen,7794 and asses,2543 flocks,6629 and menservants,5650 and womenservants:8198 and I have sent7971 to tell5046 my lord,113 that I may find4672 grace2580 in thy sight.5869
6 And the messengers4397 returned7725 to413 Jacob,3290 saying,559 We came935 to413 thy brother251 Esau,6215 and also1571 he cometh1980 to meet7125 thee, and four702 hundred3967 men376 with5973 him.
7 Then Jacob3290 was greatly afraid3372 3966 and distressed:3334 and he divided2673 853 the people5971 that834 was with854 him, and the flocks,6629 and herds,1241 and the camels,1581 into two8147 bands;4264
8 And said,559 If518 Esau6215 come935 to413 the one259 company,4264 and smite5221 it, then the other company4264 which is left7604 shall escape.6413
9 And Jacob3290 said,559 O God430 of my father1 Abraham,85 and God430 of my father1 Isaac,3327 the LORD3068 which saidst559 unto413 me, Return7725 unto thy country,776 and to thy kindred,4138 and I will deal well3190 with5973 thee:
10 I am not worthy6994 of the least of all4480 3605 the mercies,2617 and of all4480 3605 the truth,571 which834 thou hast showed6213 unto 853 thy servant;5650 for3588 with my staff4731 I passed over5674 853 this2088 Jordan;3383 and now6258 I am become1961 two8147 bands.4264
11 Deliver5337 me, I pray thee,4994 from the hand4480 3027 of my brother,251 from the hand4480 3027 of Esau:6215 for3588 I595 fear3372 him, lest6435 he will come935 and smite5221 me, and the mother517 with5921 the children.1121
12 And thou859 saidst,559 I will surely do thee good,3190 3190 5973 and make7760 853 thy seed2233 as the sand2344 of the sea,3220 which834 cannot3808 be numbered5608 for multitude.4480 7230
13 And he lodged3885 there8033 that same1931 night;3915 and took3947 of4480 that which came935 to his hand3027 a present4503 for Esau6215 his brother;251
14 Two hundred3967 she goats,5795 and twenty6242 he goats,8495 two hundred3967 ewes,7353 and twenty6242 rams,352
15 Thirty7970 milch3243 camels1581 with their colts,1121 forty705 kine,6510 and ten6235 bulls,6499 twenty6242 she asses,860 and ten6235 foals.5895
16 And he delivered5414 them into the hand3027 of his servants,5650 every drove5739 5739 by themselves;905 and said559 unto413 his servants,5650 Pass over5674 before6440 me, and put7760 a space7305 between996 drove5739 and drove.5739
17 And he commanded6680 853 the foremost,7223 saying,559 When3588 Esau6215 my brother251 meeteth6298 thee, and asketh7592 thee, saying,559 Whose4310 art thou?859 and whither575 goest1980 thou? and whose4310 are these428 before6440 thee?
18 Then thou shalt say,559 They be thy servant5650 Jacob's;3290 it1931 is a present4503 sent7971 unto my lord113 Esau:6215 and, behold,2009 also1571 he1931 is behind310 us.
19 And so1571 commanded6680 he 853 the second,8145 and1571 853 the third,7992 and1571 853 all3605 that followed1980 310 the droves,5739 saying,559 On this2088 manner1697 shall ye speak1696 unto413 Esau,6215 when ye find4672 him.
20 And say559 ye moreover,1571 Behold,2009 thy servant5650 Jacob3290 is behind310 us. For3588 he said,559 I will appease3722 6440 him with the present4503 that goeth1980 before6440 me, and afterward310 3651 I will see7200 his face;6440 peradventure194 he will accept5375 6440 of me.
21 So went5674 the present4503 over before5921 6440 him: and himself1931 lodged3885 that1931 night3915 in the company.4264
22 And he rose up6965 that1931 night,3915 and took3947 853 his two8147 wives,802 and his two8147 womenservants,8198 and his eleven259 6240 sons,3206 and passed over5674 853 the ford4569 Jabbok.2999
23 And he took3947 them, and sent them over5674 853 the brook,5158 and sent over5674 853 that834 he had.
24 And Jacob3290 was left3498 alone;905 and there wrestled79 a man376 with5973 him until5704 the breaking5927 of the day.7837
25 And when he saw7200 that3588 he prevailed3201 not3808 against him, he touched5060 the hollow3709 of his thigh;3409 and the hollow3709 of Jacob's3290 thigh3409 was out of joint,3363 as he wrestled79 with5973 him.
26 And he said,559 Let me go,7971 for3588 the day7837 breaketh.5927 And he said,559 I will not3808 let thee go,7971 except3588 518 thou bless1288 me.
27 And he said559 unto413 him, What4100 is thy name?8034 And he said,559 Jacob.3290
28 And he said,559 Thy name8034 shall be called559 no3808 more5750 Jacob,3290 but3588 518 Israel:3478 for3588 as a prince hast thou power8280 with5973 God430 and with5973 men,376 and hast prevailed.3201
29 And Jacob3290 asked7592 him, and said,559 Tell5046 me, I pray thee,4994 thy name.8034 And he said,559 Wherefore4100 is it2088 that thou dost ask7592 after my name?8034 And he blessed1288 him there.8033
30 And Jacob3290 called7121 the name8034 of the place4725 Peniel:6439 for3588 I have seen7200 God430 face6440 to413 face,6440 and my life5315 is preserved.5337
31 And as834 he passed over5674 853 Penuel6439 the sun8121 rose2224 upon him, and he1931 halted6760 upon5921 his thigh.3409
32 Therefore5921 3651 the children1121 of Israel3478 eat398 not3808 of 853 the sinew1517 which shrank,5384 which834 is upon5921 the hollow3709 of the thigh,3409 unto5704 this2088 day:3117 because3588 he touched5060 the hollow3709 of Jacob's3290 thigh3409 in the sinew1517 that shrank.5384
1 And Jacob3290 lifted up5375 his eyes,5869 and looked,7200 and, behold,2009 Esau6215 came,935 and with5973 him four702 hundred3967 men.376 And he divided2673 853 the children3206 unto5921 Leah,3812 and unto5921 Rachel,7354 and unto5921 the two8147 handmaids.8198
2 And he put7760 853 the handmaids8198 and their children3206 foremost,7223 and Leah3812 and her children3206 after,314 and Rachel7354 and Joseph3130 hindmost.314
3 And he1931 passed over5674 before6440 them, and bowed himself7812 to the ground776 seven7651 times,6471 until5704 he came near5066 to5704 his brother.251
4 And Esau6215 ran7323 to meet7125 him, and embraced2263 him, and fell5307 on5921 his neck,6677 and kissed5401 him: and they wept.1058
5 And he lifted up5375 853 his eyes,5869 and saw7200 853 the women802 and the children;3206 and said,559 Who4310 are those428 with thee? And he said,559 The children3206 which834 God430 hath graciously given2603 853 thy servant.5650
6 Then the handmaidens8198 came near,5066 they2007 and their children,3206 and they bowed themselves.7812
7 And Leah3812 also1571 with her children3206 came near,5066 and bowed themselves:7812 and after310 came Joseph near5066 3130 and Rachel,7354 and they bowed themselves.7812
8 And he said,559 What4310 meanest thou by all3605 this2088 drove4264 which834 I met?6298 And he said,559 These are to find4672 grace2580 in the sight5869 of my lord.113
9 And Esau6215 said,559 I have3426 enough,7227 my brother;251 keep1961 that834 thou hast unto thyself.
10 And Jacob3290 said,559 Nay,408 I pray thee,4994 if518 now4994 I have found4672 grace2580 in thy sight,5869 then receive3947 my present4503 at my hand:4480 3027 for3588 therefore5921 3651 I have seen7200 thy face,6440 as though I had seen7200 the face6440 of God,430 and thou wast pleased7521 with me.
11 Take,3947 I pray thee,4994 853 my blessing1293 that834 is brought935 to thee; because3588 God430 hath dealt graciously2603 with me, and because3588 I have3426 enough.3605 And he urged6484 him, and he took3947 it.
12 And he said,559 Let us take our journey,5265 and let us go,1980 and I will go1980 before5048 thee.
13 And he said559 unto413 him, My lord113 knoweth3045 that3588 the children3206 are tender,7390 and the flocks6629 and herds1241 with young5763 are with5921 me: and if men should overdrive1849 them one259 day,3117 all3605 the flock6629 will die.4191
14 Let my lord,113 I pray thee,4994 pass over5674 before6440 his servant:5650 and I589 will lead on5095 softly,328 according as7272 the cattle4399 that834 goeth before6440 me and the children3206 be able to endure,7272 until5704 834 I come935 unto413 my lord113 unto Seir.8165
15 And Esau6215 said,559 Let me now4994 leave3322 with5973 thee some of4480 the folk5971 that834 are with854 me. And he said,559 What4100 needeth it?2088 let me find4672 grace2580 in the sight5869 of my lord.113
16 So Esau6215 returned7725 that1931 day3117 on his way1870 unto Seir.8165
17 And Jacob3290 journeyed5265 to Succoth,5523 and built1129 him a house,1004 and made6213 booths5521 for his cattle:4735 therefore5921 3651 the name8034 of the place4725 is called7121 Succoth.5523
18 And Jacob3290 came935 to Shalem,8003 a city5892 of Shechem,7927 which834 is in the land776 of Canaan,3667 when he came935 from Padan-aram;4480 6307 and pitched his tent2583 853 before6440 the city.5892
19 And he bought7069 853 a parcel2513 of a field,7704 where834 8033 he had spread5186 his tent,168 at the hand4480 3027 of the children1121 of Hamor,2544 Shechem's7928 father,1 for a hundred3967 pieces of money.7192
20 And he erected5324 there8033 an altar,4196 and called7121 it El-elohe-Israel.415
1 And Dinah1783 the daughter1323 of Leah,3812 which834 she bore3205 unto Jacob,3290 went out3318 to see7200 the daughters1323 of the land.776
2 And when Shechem7928 the son1121 of Hamor2544 the Hivite,2340 prince5387 of the country,776 saw7200 her, he took3947 her, and lay with7901 her, and defiled6031 her.
3 And his soul5315 cleaved1692 unto Dinah1783 the daughter1323 of Jacob,3290 and he loved157 853 the damsel,5291 and spoke1696 kindly5921 3820 unto the damsel.5291
4 And Shechem7928 spoke559 unto413 his father1 Hamor,2544 saying,559 Get3947 me 853 this2063 damsel3207 to wife.802
5 And Jacob3290 heard8085 that3588 he had defiled2930 853 Dinah1783 his daughter:1323 now his sons1121 were1961 with854 his cattle4735 in the field:7704 and Jacob3290 held his peace2790 until5704 they were come.935
6 And Hamor2544 the father1 of Shechem7927 went out3318 unto413 Jacob3290 to commune1696 with854 him.
7 And the sons1121 of Jacob3290 came935 out of4480 the field7704 when they heard8085 it: and the men376 were grieved,6087 and they were very wroth,2734 3966 because3588 he had wrought6213 folly5039 in Israel3478 in lying with7901 853 Jacob's3290 daughter;1323 which thing3651 ought not3808 to be done.6213
8 And Hamor2544 communed1696 with854 them, saying,559 The soul5315 of my son1121 Shechem7928 longeth2836 for your daughter:1323 I pray you4994 give5414 her him to wife.802
9 And make ye marriages2859 with854 us, and give5414 your daughters1323 unto us, and take3947 our daughters1323 unto you.
10 And ye shall dwell3427 with854 us: and the land776 shall be1961 before6440 you; dwell3427 and trade5503 ye therein, and get you possessions270 therein.
11 And Shechem7928 said559 unto413 her father1 and unto413 her brethren,251 Let me find4672 grace2580 in your eyes,5869 and what834 ye shall say559 unto413 me I will give.5414
12 Ask7235 5921 me never so much3966 dowry4119 and gift,4976 and I will give5414 according as834 ye shall say559 unto413 me: but give5414 me 853 the damsel5291 to wife.802
13 And the sons1121 of Jacob3290 answered6030 853 Shechem7928 and Hamor2544 his father1 deceitfully,4820 and said,1696 because834 he had defiled2930 853 Dinah1783 their sister:269
14 And they said559 unto413 them, We cannot3808 3201 do6213 this2088 thing,1697 to give5414 853 our sister269 to one376 that834 is uncircumcised;6190 for3588 that1931 were a reproach2781 unto us:
15 But389 in this2063 will we consent225 unto you: If518 ye will be1961 as we be, that every3605 male2145 of you be circumcised;4135
16 Then will we give5414 853 our daughters1323 unto you, and we will take3947 your daughters1323 to us, and we will dwell3427 with854 you, and we will become1961 one259 people.5971
17 But if518 ye will not3808 hearken8085 unto413 us, to be circumcised;4135 then will we take3947 853 our daughter,1323 and we will be gone.1980
18 And their words1697 pleased3190 5869 Hamor,2544 and Shechem7928 Hamor's2544 son.1121
19 And the young man5288 deferred309 not3808 to do6213 the thing,1697 because3588 he had delight2654 in Jacob's3290 daughter:1323 and he1931 was more honorable3513 than all4480 3605 the house1004 of his father.1
20 And Hamor2544 and Shechem7928 his son1121 came935 unto413 the gate8179 of their city,5892 and communed1696 with413 the men376 of their city,5892 saying,559
21 These428 men376 are peaceable8003 with854 us; therefore let them dwell3427 in the land,776 and trade5503 therein; for the land,776 behold,2009 it is large enough7342 3027 for6440 them; let us take3947 853 their daughters1323 to us for wives,802 and let us give5414 them our daughters.1323
22 Only389 herein2063 will the men376 consent225 unto us for to dwell3427 with854 us, to be1961 one259 people,5971 if every3605 male2145 among us be circumcised,4135 as834 they1992 are circumcised.4135
23 Shall not3808 their cattle4735 and their substance7075 and every3605 beast929 of theirs be ours? only389 let us consent225 unto them, and they will dwell3427 with854 us.
24 And unto413 Hamor2544 and unto413 Shechem7928 his son1121 hearkened8085 all3605 that went out3318 of the gate8179 of his city;5892 and every3605 male2145 was circumcised,4135 all3605 that went out3318 of the gate8179 of his city.5892
25 And it came to pass1961 on the third7992 day,3117 when they were1961 sore,3510 that two8147 of the sons1121 of Jacob,3290 Simeon8095 and Levi,3878 Dinah's1783 brethren,251 took3947 each man376 his sword,2719 and came935 upon5921 the city5892 boldly,983 and slew2026 all3605 the males.2145
26 And they slew2026 Hamor2544 and Shechem7928 his son1121 with the edge6310 of the sword,2719 and took3947 853 Dinah1783 out of Shechem's7928 house,4480 1004 and went out.3318
27 The sons1121 of Jacob3290 came935 upon5921 the slain,2491 and spoiled962 the city,5892 because834 they had defiled2930 their sister.269
28 They took3947 853 their sheep,6629 and their oxen,1241 and their asses,2543 and that which834 was in the city,5892 and that which834 was in the field,7704
29 And all3605 their wealth,2428 and all3605 their little ones,2945 and their wives802 took they captive,7617 and spoiled962 even all3605 that834 was in the house.1004
30 And Jacob3290 said559 to413 Simeon8095 and Levi,3878 Ye have troubled5916 me to make me to stink887 among the inhabitants3427 of the land,776 among the Canaanites3669 and the Perizzites:6522 and I589 being few4962 in number,4557 they shall gather themselves together622 against5921 me, and slay5221 me; and I shall be destroyed,8045 I589 and my house.1004
31 And they said,559 Should he deal with6213 853 our sister269 as with an harlot?2181
1 And God430 said559 unto413 Jacob,3290 Arise,6965 go up5927 to Bethel,1008 and dwell3427 there:8033 and make6213 there8033 an altar4196 unto God,410 that appeared7200 unto413 thee when thou fleddest1272 from the face4480 6440 of Esau6215 thy brother.251
2 Then Jacob3290 said559 unto413 his household,1004 and to413 all3605 that834 were with5973 him, Put away5493 853 the strange5236 gods430 that834 are among8432 you, and be clean,2891 and change2498 your garments:8071
3 And let us arise,6965 and go up5927 to Bethel;1008 and I will make6213 there8033 an altar4196 unto God,410 who answered6030 me in the day3117 of my distress,6869 and was1961 with5973 me in the way1870 which834 I went.1980
4 And they gave5414 unto413 Jacob3290 853 all3605 the strange5236 gods430 which834 were in their hand,3027 and all their earrings5141 which834 were in their ears;241 and Jacob3290 hid2934 them under8478 the oak424 which834 was by5973 Shechem.7927
5 And they journeyed:5265 and the terror2847 of God430 was1961 upon5921 the cities5892 that834 were round about5439 them, and they did not3808 pursue7291 after310 the sons1121 of Jacob.3290
6 So Jacob3290 came935 to Luz,3870 which834 is in the land776 of Canaan,3667 that1931 is, Bethel,1008 he1931 and all3605 the people5971 that834 were with5973 him.
7 And he built1129 there8033 an altar,4196 and called7121 the place4725 El-bethel:416 because3588 there8033 God430 appeared1540 unto413 him, when he fled1272 from the face4480 6440 of his brother.251
8 But Deborah1683 Rebekah's7259 nurse3243 died,4191 and she was buried6912 beneath4480 8478 Bethel1008 under8478 an oak:437 and the name8034 of it was called7121 Allon-bachuth.439
9 And God430 appeared7200 unto413 Jacob3290 again,5750 when he came935 out of Padan-aram,4480 6307 and blessed1288 him.
10 And God430 said559 unto him, Thy name8034 is Jacob:3290 thy name8034 shall not3808 be called7121 any more5750 Jacob,3290 but3588 518 Israel3478 shall be1961 thy name:8034 and he called7121 853 his name8034 Israel.3478
11 And God430 said559 unto him, I589 am God410 Almighty:7706 be fruitful6509 and multiply;7235 a nation1471 and a company6951 of nations1471 shall be1961 of4480 thee, and kings4428 shall come out3318 of thy loins;4480 2504
12 And the land776 which834 I gave5414 Abraham85 and Isaac,3327 to thee I will give5414 it, and to thy seed2233 after310 thee will I give5414 853 the land.776
13 And God430 went up5927 from4480 5921 him in the place4725 where834 he talked1696 with854 him.
14 And Jacob3290 set up5324 a pillar4676 in the place4725 where834 he talked1696 with854 him, even a pillar4678 of stone:68 and he poured5258 a drink offering5262 thereon,5921 and he poured3332 oil8081 thereon.5921
15 And Jacob3290 called7121 853 the name8034 of the place4725 where834 God430 spoke1696 with854 him, Bethel.1008
16 And they journeyed5265 from Bethel;4480 1008 and there was1961 but5750 a little way3530 776 to come935 to Ephrath:672 and Rachel7354 travailed,3205 and she had hard7185 labor.3205
17 And it came to pass,1961 when she was in hard7185 labor,3205 that the midwife3205 said559 unto her, Fear3372 not;408 thou shalt have this2088 son1121 also.1571
18 And it came to pass,1961 as her soul5315 was in departing,3318 (for3588 she died)4191 that she called7121 his name8034 Ben-oni:1126 but his father1 called7121 him Benjamin.1144
19 And Rachel7354 died,4191 and was buried6912 in the way1870 to Ephrath,672 which1931 is Bethlehem.1035
20 And Jacob3290 set5324 a pillar4676 upon5921 her grave:6900 that1931 is the pillar4678 of Rachel's7354 grave6900 unto5704 this day.3117
21 And Israel3478 journeyed,5265 and spread5186 his tent168 beyond4480 1973 the tower4026 of Edar.4029
22 And it came to pass,1961 when Israel3478 dwelt7931 in that1931 land,776 that Reuben7205 went1980 and lay with7901 853 Bilhah1090 his father's1 concubine:6370 and Israel3478 heard8085 it. Now the sons1121 of Jacob3290 were1961 twelve:8147 6240
23 The sons1121 of Leah;3812 Reuben,7205 Jacob's3290 firstborn,1060 and Simeon,8095 and Levi,3878 and Judah,3063 and Issachar,3485 and Zebulun:2074
24 The sons1121 of Rachel;7354 Joseph,3130 and Benjamin:1144
25 And the sons1121 of Bilhah,1090 Rachel's7354 handmaid;8198 Dan,1835 and Naphtali:5321
26 And the sons1121 of Zilpah,2153 Leah's3812 handmaid;8198 Gad,1410 and Asher:836 these428 are the sons1121 of Jacob,3290 which834 were born3205 to him in Padan-aram.6307
27 And Jacob3290 came935 unto413 Isaac3327 his father1 unto Mamre,4471 unto the city of Arbah,7153 which1931 is Hebron,2275 where834 8033 Abraham85 and Isaac3327 sojourned.1481
28 And the days3117 of Isaac3327 were1961 a hundred3967 and fourscore8084 years.8141
29 And Isaac3327 gave up the ghost,1478 and died,4191 and was gathered622 unto413 his people,5971 being old2205 and full7649 of days:3117 and his sons1121 Esau6215 and Jacob3290 buried6912 him.
1 Now these428 are the generations8435 of Esau,6215 who1931 is Edom.123
2 Esau6215 took3947 853 his wives802 of the daughters4480 1323 of Canaan;3667 853 Adah5711 the daughter1323 of Elon356 the Hittite,2850 and Aholibamah173 the daughter1323 of Anah6034 the daughter1323 of Zibeon6649 the Hivite;2340
3 And Bashemath1315 Ishmael's3458 daughter,1323 sister269 of Nebajoth.5032
4 And Adah5711 bore3205 to Esau6215 853 Eliphaz;464 and Bashemath1315 bore3205 853 Reuel;7467
5 And Aholibamah173 bore3205 853 Jeush,3266 and Jaalam,3281 and Korah:7141 these428 are the sons1121 of Esau,6215 which834 were born3205 unto him in the land776 of Canaan.3667
6 And Esau6215 took3947 853 his wives,802 and his sons,1121 and his daughters,1323 and all3605 the persons5315 of his house,1004 and his cattle,4735 and all3605 his beasts,929 and all3605 his substance,7075 which834 he had got7408 in the land776 of Canaan;3667 and went1980 into413 the country776 from the face4480 6440 of his brother251 Jacob.3290
7 For3588 their riches7399 were1961 more than7227 that they might dwell4480 3427 together;3162 and the land776 wherein they were strangers4033 could3201 not3808 bear5375 them because4480 6440 of their cattle.4735

43 Duke441 Magdiel,4025 duke441 Iram:5902 these428 be the dukes441 of Edom,123 according to their habitations4186 in the land776 of their possession:272 he1931 is Esau6215 the father1 of the Edomites.123
1 And Jacob3290 dwelt3427 in the land776 wherein his father1 was a stranger,4033 in the land776 of Canaan.3667
2 These428 are the generations8435 of Jacob.3290 Joseph,3130 being seventeen7651 6240 years8141 old,1121 was1961 feeding7462 the flock6629 with854 his brethren;251 and the lad5288 was with854 the sons1121 of Bilhah,1090 and with854 the sons1121 of Zilpah,2153 his father's1 wives:802 and Joseph3130 brought935 unto413 his father1 their 853 evil7451 report.1681
3 Now Israel3478 loved157 853 Joseph3130 more than all4480 3605 his children,1121 because3588 he1931 was the son1121 of his old age:2208 and he made6213 him a coat3801 of many colors.6446
4 And when his brethren251 saw7200 that3588 their father1 loved157 him more than all4480 3605 his brethren,251 they hated8130 him, and could3201 not3808 speak1696 peaceably7965 unto him.
5 And Joseph3130 dreamed2492 a dream,2472 and he told5046 it his brethren:251 and they hated8130 him yet5750 the more.3254
6 And he said559 unto413 them, Hear,8085 I pray you,4994 this2088 dream2472 which834 I have dreamed:2492
7 For, behold,2009 we587 were binding481 sheaves485 in8432 the field,7704 and, lo,2009 my sheaf485 arose,6965 and also1571 stood upright;5324 and, behold,2009 your sheaves485 stood round about,5437 and made obeisance7812 to my sheaf.485
8 And his brethren251 said559 to him, Shalt thou indeed reign4427 4427 over5921 us? or518 shalt thou indeed have dominion4910 4910 over us? And they hated8130 him yet5750 the more3254 for5921 his dreams,2472 and for5921 his words.1697
9 And he dreamed2492 yet5750 another312 dream,2472 and told5608 it his brethren,251 and said,559 Behold,2009 I have dreamed2492 a dream2472 more;5750 and, behold,2009 the sun8121 and the moon3394 and the eleven259 6240 stars3556 made obeisance7812 to me.
10 And he told5608 it to413 his father,1 and to413 his brethren:251 and his father1 rebuked1605 him, and said559 unto him, What4100 is this2088 dream2472 that834 thou hast dreamed?2492 Shall I589 and thy mother517 and thy brethren251 indeed come935 935 to bow down ourselves7812 to thee to the earth?776
11 And his brethren251 envied7065 him; but his father1 observed8104 853 the saying.1697
12 And his brethren251 went1980 to feed7462 853 their father's1 flock6629 in Shechem.7927
13 And Israel3478 said559 unto413 Joseph,3130 Do not3808 thy brethren251 feed7462 the flock in Shechem?7927 come,1980 and I will send7971 thee unto413 them. And he said559 to him, Here2009 am I.
14 And he said559 to him, Go,1980 I pray thee,4994 see7200 whether 853 it be well7965 with thy brethren,251 and well7965 with the flocks;6629 and bring7725 me word1697 again. So he sent7971 him out of the vale4480 6010 of Hebron,2275 and he came935 to Shechem.7927
15 And a certain man376 found4672 him, and, behold,2009 he was wandering8582 in the field:7704 and the man376 asked7592 him, saying,559 What4100 seekest1245 thou?
16 And he said,559 I595 seek1245 853 my brethren:251 tell5046 me, I pray thee,4994 where375 they1992 feed7462 their flocks.
17 And the man376 said,559 They are departed5265 hence;4480 2088 for3588 I heard8085 them say,559 Let us go1980 to Dothan.1886 And Joseph3130 went1980 after310 his brethren,251 and found4672 them in Dothan.1886
18 And when they saw7200 him afar off,4480 7350 even before2962 he came near7126 unto413 them, they conspired5230 against him to slay4191 him.
19 And they said559 one376 to413 another,251 Behold,2009 this1976 dreamer1167 2472 cometh.935
20 Come1980 now6258 therefore, and let us slay2026 him, and cast7993 him into some259 pit,953 and we will say,559 Some evil7451 beast2416 hath devoured398 him: and we shall see7200 what4100 will become1961 of his dreams.2472
21 And Reuben7205 heard8085 it, and he delivered5337 him out of their hands;4480 3027 and said,559 Let us not3808 kill5221 him.
22 And Reuben7205 said559 unto413 them, Shed8210 no408 blood,1818 but cast7993 him into413 this2088 pit953 that834 is in the wilderness,4057 and lay7971 no408 hand3027 upon him; that4616 he might rid5337 him out of their hands,4480 3027 to deliver7725 him to413 his father1 again.
23 And it came to pass,1961 when834 Joseph3130 was come935 unto413 his brethren,251 that they stripped6584 853 Joseph3130 out of 853 his coat,3801 his 853 coat3801 of many colors6446 that834 was on5921 him;
24 And they took3947 him, and cast7993 him into a pit:953 and the pit953 was empty,7386 there was no369 water4325 in it.
25 And they sat down3427 to eat398 bread:3899 and they lifted up5375 their eyes5869 and looked,7200 and, behold,2009 a company736 of Ishmaelites3459 came935 from Gilead4480 1568 with their camels1581 bearing5375 spicery5219 and balm6875 and myrrh,3910 going1980 to carry it down3381 to Egypt.4714
26 And Judah3063 said559 unto413 his brethren,251 What4100 profit1215 is it if3588 we slay2026 853 our brother,251 and conceal3680 853 his blood?1818
27 Come,1980 and let us sell4376 him to the Ishmaelites,3459 and let not408 our hand3027 be1961 upon him; for3588 he1931 is our brother251 and our flesh.1320 And his brethren251 were content.8085
28 Then there passed by5674 Midianites376 4084 merchantmen;5503 and they drew4900 and lifted up5927 853 Joseph3130 out of4480 the pit,953 and sold4376 853 Joseph3130 to the Ishmaelites3459 for twenty6242 pieces of silver:3701 and they brought935 853 Joseph3130 into Egypt.4714
29 And Reuben7205 returned7725 unto413 the pit;953 and, behold,2009 Joseph3130 was not369 in the pit;953 and he rent7167 853 his clothes.899
30 And he returned7725 unto413 his brethren,251 and said,559 The child3206 is not;369 and I,589 whither575 shall I589 go?935
31 And they took3947 853 Joseph's3130 coat,3801 and killed7819 a kid8163 of the goats,5795 and dipped2881 853 the coat3801 in the blood;1818
32 And they sent7971 853 the coat3801 of many colors,6446 and they brought935 it to413 their father;1 and said,559 This2063 have we found:4672 know5234 now4994 whether it1931 be thy son's1121 coat3801 or518 no.3808
33 And he knew5234 it, and said,559 It is my son's1121 coat;3801 an evil7451 beast2416 hath devoured398 him; Joseph3130 is without doubt rent in pieces.2963 2963
34 And Jacob3290 rent7167 his clothes,8071 and put7760 sackcloth8242 upon his loins,4975 and mourned56 for5921 his son1121 many7227 days.3117
35 And all3605 his sons1121 and all3605 his daughters1323 rose up6965 to comfort5162 him; but he refused3985 to be comforted;5162 and he said,559 For3588 I will go down3381 into the grave7585 unto413 my son1121 mourning.57 Thus his father1 wept1058 for him.
36 And the Midianites4092 sold4376 him into413 Egypt4714 unto Potiphar,6318 an officer5631 of Pharaoh's,6547 and captain8269 of the guard.2876
1 And it came to pass1961 at that1931 time,6256 that Judah3063 went down3381 from4480 854 his brethren,251 and turned in5186 to5704 a certain376 Adullamite,5726 whose name8034 was Hirah.2437
2 And Judah3063 saw7200 there8033 a daughter1323 of a certain376 Canaanite,3669 whose name8034 was Shuah;7770 and he took3947 her, and went in935 unto413 her.
3 And she conceived,2029 and bore3205 a son;1121 and he called7121 853 his name8034 Er.6147
4 And she conceived2029 again,5750 and bore3205 a son;1121 and she called7121 853 his name8034 Onan.209
5 And she yet again5750 conceived,3254 and bore3205 a son;1121 and called7121 853 his name8034 Shelah:7956 and he was1961 at Chezib,3580 when she bore3205 him.
6 And Judah3063 took3947 a wife802 for Er6147 his firstborn,1060 whose name8034 was Tamar.8559
7 And Er,6147 Judah's3063 firstborn,1060 was1961 wicked7451 in the sight5869 of the LORD;3068 and the LORD3068 slew4191 him.
8 And Judah3063 said559 unto Onan,209 Go in935 unto413 thy brother's251 wife,802 and marry2992 her, and raise up6965 seed2233 to thy brother.251
9 And Onan209 knew3045 that3588 the seed2233 should not3808 be1961 his; and it came to pass,1961 when518 he went in935 unto413 his brother's251 wife,802 that he spilled7843 it on the ground,776 lest1115 that he should give5414 seed2233 to his brother.251
10 And the thing which834 he did6213 displeased7489 5869 the LORD:3068 wherefore he slew4191 him also.1571
11 Then said559 Judah3063 to Tamar8559 his daughter-in-law,3618 Remain3427 a widow490 at thy father's1 house,1004 till5704 Shelah7956 my son1121 be grown:1431 for3588 he said,559 Lest peradventure6435 he1931 die4191 also,1571 as his brethren251 did. And Tamar8559 went1980 and dwelt3427 in her father's1 house.1004
12 And in process of time7235 3117 the daughter1323 of Shuah7770 Judah's3063 wife802 died;4191 and Judah3063 was comforted,5162 and went up5927 unto5921 his sheepshearers1494 6629 to Timnath,8553 he1931 and his friend7453 Hirah2437 the Adullamite.5726
13 And it was told5046 Tamar,8559 saying,559 Behold2009 thy father-in-law2524 goeth up5927 to Timnath8553 to shear1494 his sheep.6629
14 And she put5493 her widow's491 garments899 off from4480 5921 her, and covered3680 her with a veil,6809 and wrapped herself,5968 and sat3427 in an open5879 place,6607 which834 is by5921 the way1870 to Timnath;8553 for3588 she saw7200 that3588 Shelah7956 was grown,1431 and she1931 was not3808 given5414 unto him to wife.802
15 When Judah3063 saw7200 her, he thought2803 her to be a harlot;2181 because3588 she had covered3680 her face.6440
16 And he turned5186 unto413 her by413 the way,1870 and said,559 Go to,3051 I pray thee,4994 let me come in935 unto413 thee; (for3588 he knew3045 not3808 that3588 she1931 was his daughter-in-law.)3618 And she said,559 What4100 wilt thou give5414 me, that3588 thou mayest come in935 unto413 me?
17 And he said,559 I595 will send7971 thee a kid1423 5795 from4480 the flock.6629 And she said,559 Wilt thou give5414 me a pledge,6162 till5704 thou send7971 it?
18 And he said,559 What4100 pledge6162 shall I give5414 thee? And she said,559 Thy signet,2368 and thy bracelets,6616 and thy staff4294 that834 is in thine hand.3027 And he gave5414 it her, and came in935 unto413 her, and she conceived2029 by him.
19 And she arose,6965 and went away,1980 and laid by5493 her veil6809 from4480 5921 her, and put on3847 the garments899 of her widowhood.491
20 And Judah3063 sent7971 853 the kid1423 5795 by the hand3027 of his friend7453 the Adullamite,5726 to receive3947 his pledge6162 from the woman's802 hand:4480 3027 but he found4672 her not.3808
21 Then he asked7592 853 the men376 of that place,4725 saying,559 Where346 is the harlot,6948 that1931 was openly5879 by5921 the way side?1870 And they said,559 There was1961 no3808 harlot6948 in this2088 place.
22 And he returned7725 to413 Judah,3063 and said,559 I cannot3808 find4672 her; and also1571 the men376 of the place4725 said,559 that there was1961 no3808 harlot6948 in this2088 place.
23 And Judah3063 said,559 Let her take3947 it to her, lest6435 we be1961 shamed:937 behold,2009 I sent7971 this2088 kid,1423 and thou859 hast not3808 found4672 her.
24 And it came to pass1961 about three4480 7969 months2320 after, that it was told5046 Judah,3063 saying,559 Tamar8559 thy daughter-in-law3618 hath played the harlot;2181 and also,1571 behold,2009 she is with child2030 by whoredom.2183 And Judah3063 said,559 Bring her forth,3318 and let her be burnt.8313
25 When she1931 was brought forth,3318 she1931 sent7971 to413 her father-in-law,2524 saying,559 By the man,376 whose834 these428 are, am I595 with child:2030 and she said,559 Discern,5234 I pray thee,4994 whose4310 are these,428 the signet,2858 and bracelets,6616 and staff.4294
26 And Judah3063 acknowledged5234 them, and said,559 She hath been more righteous6663 than4480 I; because3588 that5921 3651 I gave5414 her not3808 to Shelah7956 my son.1121 And he knew3045 her again3254 no3808 more.5750
27 And it came to pass1961 in the time6256 of her travail,3205 that, behold,2009 twins8380 were in her womb.990
28 And it came to pass,1961 when she travailed,3205 that the one put out5414 his hand:3027 and the midwife3205 took3947 and bound7194 upon5921 his hand3027 a scarlet thread,8144 saying,559 This2088 came out3318 first.7223
29 And it came to pass,1961 as he drew back7725 his hand,3027 that, behold,2009 his brother251 came out:3318 and she said,559 How4100 hast thou broken forth?6555 this breach6556 be upon5921 thee: therefore his name8034 was called7121 Pharez.6557
30 And afterward310 came out3318 his brother,251 that834 had the scarlet thread8144 upon5921 his hand:3027 and his name8034 was called7121 Zarah.2226
1 And Joseph3130 was brought down3381 to Egypt;4714 and Potiphar,6318 an officer5631 of Pharaoh,6547 captain8269 of the guard,2876 an Egyptian,376 4713 bought7069 him of the hands4480 3027 of the Ishmaelites,3459 which834 had brought him down3381 thither.8033
2 And the LORD3068 was1961 with854 Joseph,3130 and he was1961 a prosperous6743 man;376 and he was1961 in the house1004 of his master113 the Egyptian.4713
3 And his master113 saw7200 that3588 the LORD3068 was with854 him, and that the LORD3068 made all3605 that834 he1931 did6213 to prosper6743 in his hand.3027
4 And Joseph3130 found4672 grace2580 in his sight,5869 and he served8334 him: and he made him overseer6485 over5921 his house,1004 and all3605 that he had3426 he put5414 into his hand.3027
5 And it came to pass1961 from the time4480 227 that he had made him overseer6485 853 in his house,1004 and over5921 all3605 that834 he had,3426 that the LORD3068 blessed1288 853 the Egyptian's4713 house1004 for Joseph's sake;1558 3130 and the blessing1293 of the LORD3068 was1961 upon all3605 that834 he had3426 in the house,1004 and in the field.7704
6 And he left5800 all3605 that834 he had in Joseph's3130 hand;3027 and he knew3045 not3808 aught3972 he had,854 save3588 518 the bread3899 which834 he1931 did eat.398 And Joseph3130 was1961 a goodly3303 8389 person, and well3303 favored.4758
7 And it came to pass1961 after310 these428 things,1697 that his master's113 wife802 cast5375 853 her eyes5869 upon413 Joseph;3130 and she said,559 Lie7901 with5973 me.
8 But he refused,3985 and said559 unto413 his master's113 wife,802 Behold,2005 my master113 knoweth3045 not3808 what4100 is with854 me in the house,1004 and he hath committed5414 all3605 that834 he hath3426 to my hand;3027
9 There is none369 greater1419 in this2088 house1004 than4480 I; neither3808 hath he kept back2820 any thing3972 from4480 me but3588 518 thee, because834 thou859 art his wife:802 how349 then can I do6213 this2063 great1419 wickedness,7451 and sin2398 against God?430
10 And it came to pass,1961 as she spoke1696 to413 Joseph3130 day3117 by day,3117 that he hearkened8085 not3808 unto413 her, to lie7901 by681 her, or to be1961 with5973 her.
11 And it came to pass1961 about this2088 time,3117 that Joseph went935 into the house1004 to do6213 his business;4399 and there was none369 376 of the men4480 376 of the house1004 there8033 within.1004
12 And she caught8610 him by his garment,899 saying,559 Lie7901 with5973 me: and he left5800 his garment899 in her hand,3027 and fled,5127 and got3318 him out.2351
13 And it came to pass,1961 when she saw7200 that3588 he had left5800 his garment899 in her hand,3027 and was fled5127 forth,2351
14 That she called7121 unto the men376 of her house,1004 and spoke559 unto them, saying,559 See,7200 he hath brought in935 a Hebrew376 5680 unto us to mock6711 us; he came in935 unto413 me to lie7901 with5973 me, and I cried7121 with a loud1419 voice:6963
15 And it came to pass,1961 when he heard8085 that3588 I lifted up7311 my voice6963 and cried,7121 that he left5800 his garment899 with681 me, and fled,5127 and got3318 him out.2351
16 And she laid up5117 his garment899 by681 her, until5704 his lord113 came935 413 home.1004
17 And she spoke1696 unto413 him according to these428 words,1697 saying,559 The Hebrew5680 servant,5650 which834 thou hast brought935 unto us, came in935 unto413 me to mock6711 me:
18 And it came to pass,1961 as I lifted up7311 my voice6963 and cried,7121 that he left5800 his garment899 with681 me, and fled5127 out.2351
19 And it came to pass,1961 when his master113 heard8085 853 the words1697 of his wife,802 which834 she spoke1696 unto413 him, saying,559 After this428 manner1697 did6213 thy servant5650 to me; that his wrath639 was kindled.2734
20 And Joseph's3130 master113 took3947 him, and put5414 him into413 the prison,1004 5470 a place4725 where834 the king's4428 prisoners615 were bound:631 and he was1961 there8033 in the prison.1004 5470
21 But the LORD3068 was1961 with854 Joseph,3130 and showed5186 413 him mercy,2617 and gave5414 him favor2580 in the sight5869 of the keeper8269 of the prison.1004 5470
22 And the keeper8269 of the prison1004 5470 committed5414 to Joseph's3130 hand3027 853 all3605 the prisoners615 that834 were in the prison;1004 5470 and whatsoever3605 834 they did6213 there,8033 he1931 was1961 the doer6213 of it.
23 The keeper8269 of the prison1004 5470 looked7200 not369 to 853 any thing3605 3972 that was under his hand;3027 because834 the LORD3068 was with854 him, and that which834 he1931 did,6213 the LORD3068 made it to prosper.6743
1 And it came to pass1961 after310 these428 things,1697 that the butler4945 of the king4428 of Egypt4714 and his baker644 had offended2398 their lord113 the king4428 of Egypt.4714
2 And Pharaoh6547 was wroth7107 against5921 two8147 of his officers,5631 against5921 the chief8269 of the butlers,4945 and against5921 the chief8269 of the bakers.644
3 And he put5414 them in ward4929 in the house1004 of the captain8269 of the guard,2876 into413 the prison,1004 5470 the place4725 where834 8033 Joseph3130 was bound.631
4 And the captain8269 of the guard2876 charged6485 853 Joseph3130 with854 them, and he served8334 them: and they continued1961 a season3117 in ward.4929
5 And they dreamed2492 a dream2472 both8147 of them, each man376 his dream2472 in one259 night,3915 each man376 according to the interpretation6623 of his dream,2472 the butler4945 and the baker644 of the king4428 of Egypt,4714 which834 were bound631 in the prison.1004 5470
6 And Joseph3130 came in935 unto413 them in the morning,1242 and looked upon7200 them, and, behold,2009 they were sad.2196
7 And he asked7592 853 Pharaoh's6547 officers5631 that834 were with854 him in the ward4929 of his lord's113 house,1004 saying,559 Wherefore4069 look6440 ye so sadly7451 today?3117
8 And they said559 unto413 him, We have dreamed2492 a dream,2472 and there is no369 interpreter6622 of it. And Joseph3130 said559 unto413 them, Do not3808 interpretations6623 belong to God?430 tell5608 me them, I pray you.4994
9 And the chief8269 butler4945 told5608 853 his dream2472 to Joseph,3130 and said559 to him, In my dream,2472 behold,2009 a vine1612 was before6440 me;
10 And in the vine1612 were three7969 branches:8299 and it was as though it budded,6524 and her1931 blossoms5322 shot forth;5927 and the clusters811 thereof brought forth1310 ripe grapes:6025
11 And Pharaoh's6547 cup3563 was in my hand:3027 and I took3947 853 the grapes,6025 and pressed7818 them into413 Pharaoh's6547 cup,3563 and I gave5414 853 the cup3563 into5921 Pharaoh's6547 hand.3709
12 And Joseph3130 said559 unto him, This2088 is the interpretation6623 of it: The three7969 branches8299 are three7969 days:3117
13 Yet5750 within three7969 days3117 shall Pharaoh6547 lift up5375 853 thine head,7218 and restore7725 thee unto5921 thy place:3653 and thou shalt deliver5414 Pharaoh's6547 cup3563 into his hand,3027 after the former7223 manner4941 when834 thou wast1961 his butler.4945
14 But3588 518 think on2142 me when834 it shall be well3190 with thee, and show6213 kindness,2617 I pray thee,4994 unto5973 me, and make mention2142 of me unto413 Pharaoh,6547 and bring me out3318 of4480 this2088 house:1004
15 For3588 indeed I was stolen away1589 1589 out of the land4480 776 of the Hebrews:5680 and here6311 also1571 have I done6213 nothing3808 3972 that3588 they should put7760 me into the dungeon.953
16 When the chief8269 baker644 saw7200 that3588 the interpretation6622 was good,2896 he said559 unto413 Joseph,3130 I589 also637 was in my dream,2472 and, behold,2009 I had three7969 white2751 baskets5536 on5921 my head:7218
17 And in the uppermost5945 basket5536 there was of all manner4480 3605 of bakedmeats3978 4639 644 for Pharaoh;6547 and the birds5775 did eat398 them out of4480 the basket5536 upon4480 5921 my head.7218
18 And Joseph3130 answered6030 and said,559 This2088 is the interpretation6623 thereof: The three7969 baskets5536 are three7969 days:3117
19 Yet5750 within three7969 days3117 shall Pharaoh6547 lift up5375 853 thy head7218 from off4480 5921 thee, and shall hang8518 thee on5921 a tree;6086 and the birds5775 shall eat398 853 thy flesh1320 from off4480 5921 thee.
20 And it came to pass1961 the third7992 day,3117 which was 853 Pharaoh's6547 birthday,3117 3205 that he made6213 a feast4960 unto all3605 his servants:5650 and he lifted up5375 853 the head7218 of the chief8269 butler4945 and of the chief8269 baker644 among8432 his servants.5650
21 And he restored7725 853 the chief8269 butler4945 unto5921 his butlership4945 again; and he gave5414 the cup3563 into5921 Pharaoh's6547 hand:3709
22 But he hanged8518 the chief8269 baker:644 as834 Joseph3130 had interpreted6622 to them.
23 Yet did not3808 the chief8269 butler4945 remember2142 853 Joseph,3130 but forgot7911 him.
1 And it came to pass1961 at the end4480 7093 of two full years,8141 3117 that Pharaoh6547 dreamed:2492 and, behold,2009 he stood5975 by5921 the river.2975
2 And, behold,2009 there came up5927 out of4480 the river2975 seven7651 well3303 favored4758 kine6510 and fatfleshed;1277 1320 and they fed7462 in a meadow.260
3 And, behold,2009 seven7651 other312 kine6510 came up5927 after310 them out of4480 the river,2975 ill7451 favored4758 and leanfleshed;1851 1320 and stood5975 by681 the other kine6510 upon5921 the brink8193 of the river.2975
4 And the ill7451 favored4758 and leanfleshed1851 1320 kine6510 did eat up398 853 the seven7651 well3303 favored4758 and fat1277 kine.6510 So Pharaoh6547 awoke.3364
5 And he slept3462 and dreamed2492 the second time:8145 and, behold,2009 seven7651 ears of corn7641 came up5927 upon one259 stalk,7070 rank1277 and good.2896
6 And, behold,2009 seven7651 thin1851 ears7641 and blasted7710 with the east wind6921 sprung up6779 after310 them.
7 And the seven thin1851 ears7641 devoured1104 853 the seven7651 rank1277 and full4392 ears.7641 And Pharaoh6547 awoke,3364 and, behold,2009 it was a dream.2472
8 And it came to pass1961 in the morning1242 that his spirit7307 was troubled;6470 and he sent7971 and called for7121 853 all3605 the magicians2748 of Egypt,4714 and all3605 the wise men2450 thereof: and Pharaoh6547 told5608 them 853 his dream;2472 but there was none369 that could interpret6622 them unto Pharaoh.6547
9 Then spoke1696 the chief8269 butler4945 853 unto Pharaoh,6547 saying,559 I589 do remember2142 853 my faults2399 this day:3117
10 Pharaoh6547 was wroth7107 with5921 his servants,5650 and put5414 me in ward4929 in the captain8269 of the guard's2876 house,1004 both me and the chief8269 baker:644
11 And we dreamed2492 a dream2472 in one259 night,3915 I589 and he;1931 we dreamed2492 each man376 according to the interpretation6623 of his dream.2472
12 And there was there8033 with854 us a young man,5288 a Hebrew,5680 servant5650 to the captain8269 of the guard;2876 and we told5608 him, and he interpreted6622 to us 853 our dreams;2472 to each man376 according to his dream2472 he did interpret.6622
13 And it came to pass,1961 as834 he interpreted6622 to us, so3651 it was;1961 me he restored7725 unto5921 mine office,3653 and him he hanged.8518
14 Then Pharaoh6547 sent7971 and called7121 853 Joseph,3130 and they brought him hastily7323 out of4480 the dungeon:953 and he shaved1548 himself, and changed2498 his raiment,8071 and came in935 unto413 Pharaoh.6547
15 And Pharaoh6547 said559 unto413 Joseph,3130 I have dreamed2492 a dream,2472 and there is none369 that can interpret6622 it: and I589 have heard8085 say559 of5921 thee, that thou canst understand8085 a dream2472 to interpret6622 it.
16 And Joseph3130 answered6030 853 Pharaoh,6547 saying,559 It is not in1107 me: God430 shall give Pharaoh an answer6030 6547 of 853 peace.7965
17 And Pharaoh6547 said1696 unto413 Joseph,3130 In my dream,2472 behold,2009 I stood5975 upon5921 the bank8193 of the river:2975
18 And, behold,2009 there came up5927 out of4480 the river2975 seven7651 kine,6510 fatfleshed1277 1320 and well3303 favored;8389 and they fed7462 in a meadow:260
19 And, behold,2009 seven7651 other312 kine6510 came up5927 after310 them, poor1800 and very3966 ill7451 favored8389 and leanfleshed,7534 1320 such2007 as I never3808 saw7200 in all3605 the land776 of Egypt4714 for badness:7455
20 And the lean7534 and the ill favored7451 kine6510 did eat up398 853 the first7223 seven7651 fat1277 kine:6510
21 And when they had eaten them up,935 413 7130 it could not3808 be known3045 that3588 they had eaten935 413 7130 them; but they were still ill favored,4758 7451 as834 at the beginning.8462 So I awoke.3364
22 And I saw7200 in my dream,2472 and, behold,2009 seven7651 ears7641 came up5927 in one259 stalk,7070 full4392 and good:2896
23 And, behold,2009 seven7651 ears,7641 withered,6798 thin,1851 and blasted7710 with the east wind,6921 sprung up6779 after310 them:
24 And the thin1851 ears7641 devoured1104 853 the seven7651 good2896 ears:7641 and I told559 this unto413 the magicians;2748 but there was none369 that could declare5046 it to me.
25 And Joseph3130 said559 unto413 Pharaoh,6547 The dream2472 of Pharaoh6547 is one:259 God430 hath showed5046 Pharaoh6547 853 what834 he is about to do.6213
26 The seven7651 good2896 kine6510 are seven7651 years;8141 and the seven7651 good2896 ears7641 are seven7651 years:8141 the dream2472 is one.259
27 And the seven7651 thin7534 and ill favored7451 kine6510 that came up5927 after310 them are seven7651 years;8141 and the seven7651 empty7386 ears7641 blasted7710 with the east wind6921 shall be1961 seven7651 years8141 of famine.7458
28 This1931 is the thing1697 which834 I have spoken1696 unto413 Pharaoh:6547 What834 God430 is about to do6213 he showeth7200 853 unto Pharaoh.6547
29 Behold,2009 there come935 seven7651 years8141 of great1419 plenty7647 throughout all3605 the land776 of Egypt:4714
30 And there shall arise6965 after310 them seven7651 years8141 of famine;7458 and all3605 the plenty7647 shall be forgotten7911 in the land776 of Egypt;4714 and the famine7458 shall consume3615 853 the land;776
31 And the plenty7647 shall not3808 be known3045 in the land776 by reason of4480 6440 that1931 famine7458 following;310 3651 for3588 it1931 shall be very3966 grievous.3515
32 And for5921 that the dream2472 was doubled8138 unto413 Pharaoh6547 twice;6471 it is because3588 the thing1697 is established3559 by4480 5973 God,430 and God430 will shortly4116 bring it to pass.6213
33 Now6258 therefore let Pharaoh6547 look out7200 a man376 discreet995 and wise,2450 and set7896 him over5921 the land776 of Egypt.4714
34 Let Pharaoh6547 do6213 this, and let him appoint6485 officers6496 over5921 the land,776 and take up the fifth part2567 of 853 the land776 of Egypt4714 in the seven7651 plenteous7647 years.8141
35 And let them gather6908 853 all3605 the food400 of those428 good2896 years8141 that come,935 and lay up6651 corn1250 under8478 the hand3027 of Pharaoh,6547 and let them keep8104 food400 in the cities.5892
36 And that food400 shall be1961 for store6487 to the land776 against the seven7651 years8141 of famine,7458 which834 shall be1961 in the land776 of Egypt;4714 that the land776 perish3772 not3808 through the famine.7458
37 And the thing1697 was good3190 in the eyes5869 of Pharaoh,6547 and in the eyes5869 of all3605 his servants.5650
38 And Pharaoh6547 said559 unto413 his servants,5650 Can we find4672 such a one as this2088 is, a man376 in whom834 the Spirit7307 of God430 is?
39 And Pharaoh6547 said559 unto413 Joseph,3130 Forasmuch310 as God430 hath showed3045 thee 853 all3605 this,2063 there is none369 so discreet995 and wise2450 as thou3644 art:
40 Thou859 shalt be1961 over5921 my house,1004 and according unto5921 thy word6310 shall all3605 my people5971 be ruled:5401 only7535 in the throne3678 will I be greater1431 than4480 thou.
41 And Pharaoh6547 said559 unto413 Joseph,3130 See,7200 I have set5414 thee over5921 all3605 the land776 of Egypt.4714
42 And Pharaoh6547 took off5493 853 his ring2885 from4480 5921 his hand,3027 and put5414 it upon5921 Joseph's3130 hand,3027 and arrayed3847 him in vestures899 of fine linen,8336 and put7760 a gold2091 chain7242 about5921 his neck;6677
43 And he made him to ride7392 in the second4932 chariot4818 which834 he had; and they cried7121 before6440 him, Bow the knee:86 and he made5414 him ruler over5921 all3605 the land776 of Egypt.4714
44 And Pharaoh6547 said559 unto413 Joseph,3130 I589 am Pharaoh,6547 and without1107 thee shall no3808 man376 lift up7311 853 his hand3027 or foot7272 in all3605 the land776 of Egypt.4714
45 And Pharaoh6547 called7121 Joseph's3130 name8034 Zaphnath-paaneah;6847 and he gave5414 him to wife802 853 Asenath621 the daughter1323 of Poti-pherah6319 priest3548 of On.204 And Joseph3130 went out3318 over5921 all the land776 of Egypt.4714
46 And Joseph3130 was thirty7970 years8141 old1121 when he stood5975 before6440 Pharaoh6547 king4428 of Egypt.4714 And Joseph3130 went out3318 from the presence4480 6440 of Pharaoh,6547 and went5674 throughout all3605 the land776 of Egypt.4714
47 And in the seven7651 plenteous7647 years8141 the earth776 brought forth6213 by handfuls.7062
48 And he gathered up6908 853 all3605 the food400 of the seven7651 years,8141 which834 were1961 in the land776 of Egypt,4714 and laid up5414 the food400 in the cities:5892 the food400 of the field,7704 which834 was round about5439 every city,5892 laid he up5414 in the same.8432
49 And Joseph3130 gathered6651 corn1250 as the sand2344 of the sea,3220 very3966 much,7235 until5704 he left2308 numbering;5608 for3588 it was without369 number.4557
50 And unto Joseph3130 were born3205 two8147 sons1121 before2962 the years8141 of famine7458 came,935 which834 Asenath621 the daughter1323 of Poti-pherah6319 priest3548 of On204 bore3205 unto him.
51 And Joseph3130 called7121 853 the name8034 of the firstborn1060 Manasseh:4519 For3588 God,430 said he, hath made me forget5382 853 all3605 my toil,5999 and all3605 my father's1 house.1004
52 And the name8034 of the second8145 called7121 he Ephraim:669 For3588 God430 hath caused me to be fruitful6509 in the land776 of my affliction.6040
53 And the seven7651 years8141 of plenteousness,7647 that834 was1961 in the land776 of Egypt,4714 were ended.3615
54 And the seven7651 years8141 of dearth7458 began2490 to come,935 according as834 Joseph3130 had said:559 and the dearth7458 was1961 in all3605 lands;776 but in all3605 the land776 of Egypt4714 there was1961 bread.3899
55 And when all3605 the land776 of Egypt4714 was famished,7456 the people5971 cried6817 to413 Pharaoh6547 for bread:3899 and Pharaoh6547 said559 unto all3605 the Egyptians,4714 Go1980 unto413 Joseph;3130 what834 he saith559 to you, do.6213
56 And the famine7458 was1961 over5921 all3605 the face6440 of the earth:776 And Joseph3130 opened6605 853 all3605 the storehouses,834 and sold7666 unto the Egyptians;4714 and the famine7458 waxed sore2388 in the land776 of Egypt.4714
57 And all3605 countries776 came935 into Egypt4714 to413 Joseph3130 for to buy7666 corn; because3588 that the famine7458 was so sore2388 in all3605 lands.776
1 Now when Jacob3290 saw7200 that3588 there was3426 corn7668 in Egypt,4714 Jacob3290 said559 unto his sons,1121 Why4100 do ye look one upon another?7200
2 And he said,559 Behold,2009 I have heard8085 that3588 there is3426 corn7668 in Egypt:4714 get you down3381 thither,8033 and buy7666 for us from thence;4480 8033 that we may live,2421 and not3808 die.4191
3 And Joseph's3130 ten6235 brethren251 went down3381 to buy7666 corn1250 in Egypt.4480 4714
4 But Benjamin,1144 Joseph's3130 brother,251 Jacob3290 sent7971 not3808 with854 his brethren;251 for3588 he said,559 Lest peradventure6435 mischief611 befall7122 him.
5 And the sons1121 of Israel3478 came935 to buy7666 corn among8432 those that came:935 for3588 the famine7458 was1961 in the land776 of Canaan.3667
6 And Joseph3130 was the governor7989 over5921 the land,776 and he1931 it was that sold7666 to all3605 the people5971 of the land:776 and Joseph's3130 brethren251 came,935 and bowed down themselves7812 before him with their faces639 to the earth.776
7 And Joseph3130 saw7200 853 his brethren,251 and he knew5234 them, but made himself strange5234 unto413 them, and spoke1696 roughly7186 unto854 them; and he said559 unto413 them, Whence4480 370 come935 ye? And they said,559 From the land4480 776 of Canaan3667 to buy7666 food.400
8 And Joseph3130 knew5234 853 his brethren,251 but they1992 knew5234 not3808 him.
9 And Joseph3130 remembered2142 853 the dreams2472 which834 he dreamed2492 of them, and said559 unto413 them, Ye859 are spies;7270 to see7200 853 the nakedness6172 of the land776 ye are come.935
10 And they said559 unto413 him, Nay,3808 my lord,113 but to buy7666 food400 are thy servants5650 come.935
11 We5168 are all3605 one259 man's376 sons;1121 we587 are true3651 men, thy servants5650 are1961 no3808 spies.7270
12 And he said559 unto413 them, Nay,3808 but3588 to see7200 the nakedness6172 of the land776 ye are come.935
13 And they said,559 Thy servants5650 are twelve8147 6240 brethren,251 the sons1121 of one259 man376 in the land776 of Canaan;3667 and, behold,2009 the youngest6996 is this day3117 with854 our father,1 and one259 is not.369
14 And Joseph3130 said559 unto413 them, That1931 is it that834 I spoke1696 unto413 you, saying,559 Ye859 are spies:7270
15 Hereby2063 ye shall be proved:974 By the life2416 of Pharaoh6547 ye shall not go forth3318 hence,4480 2088 except3588 518 your youngest6996 brother251 come935 hither.2008
16 Send7971 one259 of4480 you, and let him fetch3947 853 your brother,251 and ye859 shall be kept in prison,631 that your words1697 may be proved,974 whether there be any truth571 in854 you: or else518 3808 by the life2416 of Pharaoh6547 surely3588 ye859 are spies.7270
17 And he put them all together622 853 into413 ward4929 three7969 days.3117
18 And Joseph3130 said559 unto413 them the third7992 day,3117 This2063 do,6213 and live;2421 for I589 fear3373 853 God:430
19 If518 ye859 be true3651 men, let one259 of your brethren251 be bound631 in the house1004 of your prison:4929 go1980 ye,859 carry935 corn7668 for the famine7459 of your houses:1004
20 But bring935 your youngest6996 brother251 unto413 me; so shall your words1697 be verified,539 and ye shall not3808 die.4191 And they did6213 so.3651
21 And they said559 one376 to413 another,251 We587 are verily61 guilty818 concerning5921 our brother,251 in that834 we saw7200 the anguish6869 of his soul,5315 when he besought2603 413 us, and we would not3808 hear;8085 therefore5921 3651 is this2063 distress6869 come935 upon413 us.
22 And Reuben7205 answered6030 them, saying,559 Spoke559 I not3808 unto413 you, saying,559 Do not408 sin2398 against the child;3206 and ye would not3808 hear?8085 therefore, behold,2009 also1571 his blood1818 is required.1875
23 And they1992 knew3045 not3808 that3588 Joseph3130 understood8085 them; for3588 he spoke unto996 them by an interpreter.3887
24 And he turned himself about5437 from4480 5921 them, and wept;1058 and returned7725 to413 them again, and communed1696 with413 them, and took3947 from4480 854 them 853 Simeon,8095 and bound631 him before their eyes.5869
25 Then Joseph3130 commanded6680 to fill4390 853 their sacks3627 with corn,1250 and to restore7725 every man's376 money3701 into413 his sack,8242 and to give5414 them provision6720 for the way:1870 and thus3651 did6213 he unto them.
26 And they laded5375 5921 their asses2543 with 853 the corn,7668 and departed1980 thence.4480 8033
27 And as one259 of them opened6605 853 his sack8242 to give5414 his ass2543 provender4554 in the inn,4411 he espied7200 853 his money;3701 for, behold,2009 it1931 was in his sack's572 mouth.6310
28 And he said559 unto413 his brethren,251 My money3701 is restored;7725 and, lo,2009 it is even1571 in my sack:572 and their heart3820 failed3318 them, and they were afraid,2729 saying559 one376 to413 another,251 What4100 is this2063 that God430 hath done6213 unto us?
29 And they came935 unto413 Jacob3290 their father1 unto the land776 of Canaan,3667 and told5046 him 853 all3605 that befell7136 unto them; saying,559
30 The man,376 who is the lord113 of the land,776 spoke1696 roughly7186 to854 us, and took5414 us for spies7270 of 853 the country.776
31 And we said559 unto413 him, We587 are true3651 men; we are1961 no3808 spies:7270
32 We587 be twelve8147 6240 brethren,251 sons1121 of our father;1 one259 is not,369 and the youngest6996 is this day3117 with854 our father1 in the land776 of Canaan.3667
33 And the man,376 the lord113 of the country,776 said559 unto413 us, Hereby2063 shall I know3045 that3588 ye859 are true3651 men; leave5117 one259 of your brethren251 here with854 me, and take3947 food for the famine7459 of your households,1004 and be gone:1980
34 And bring935 853 your youngest6996 brother251 unto413 me: then shall I know3045 that3588 ye859 are no3808 spies,7270 but3588 that ye859 are true3651 men: so will I deliver5414 you 853 your brother,251 and ye shall traffic5503 in the land.776
35 And it came to pass1961 as they1992 emptied7324 their sacks,8242 that, behold,2009 every man's376 bundle6872 of money3701 was in his sack:8242 and when both they1992 and their father1 saw7200 853 the bundles6872 of money,3701 they were afraid.3372
36 And Jacob3290 their father1 said559 unto413 them, Me have ye bereaved7921 of my children: Joseph3130 is not,369 and Simeon8095 is not,369 and ye will take3947 Benjamin1144 away: all3605 these things are1961 against5921 me.
37 And Reuben7205 spoke559 unto413 his father,1 saying,559 Slay4191 853 my two8147 sons,1121 if518 I bring935 him not3808 to413 thee: deliver5414 him into5921 my hand,3027 and I589 will bring7725 him to413 thee again.
38 And he said,559 My son1121 shall not3808 go down3381 with5973 you; for3588 his brother251 is dead,4191 and he1931 is left7604 alone:905 if mischief611 befall7122 him by the way1870 in the which834 ye go,1980 then shall ye bring down3381 853 my gray hairs7872 with sorrow3015 to the grave.7585
1 And the famine7458 was sore3515 in the land.776
2 And it came to pass,1961 when834 they had eaten up3615 398 853 the corn7668 which834 they had brought935 out of Egypt,4480 4714 their father1 said559 unto413 them, Go again,7725 buy7666 us a little4592 food.400
3 And Judah3063 spoke559 unto413 him, saying,559 The man376 did solemnly protest5749 5749 unto us, saying,559 Ye shall not3808 see7200 my face,6440 except1115 your brother251 be with854 you.
4 If518 thou wilt3426 send7971 853 our brother251 with854 us, we will go down3381 and buy7666 thee food:400
5 But if518 thou wilt not369 send7971 him, we will not3808 go down:3381 for3588 the man376 said559 unto413 us, Ye shall not3808 see7200 my face,6440 except1115 your brother251 be with854 you.
6 And Israel3478 said,559 Wherefore4100 dealt ye so ill7489 with me, as to tell5046 the man376 whether ye had yet5750 a brother?251
7 And they said,559 The man376 asked us straitly7592 7592 of our state, and of our kindred,4138 saying,559 Is your father1 yet5750 alive?2416 have3426 ye another brother?251 and we told5046 him according to5921 the tenor6310 of these428 words:1697 could we certainly know3045 3045 that3588 he would say,559 Bring your brother down?3381 853 251
8 And Judah3063 said559 unto413 Israel3478 his father,1 Send7971 the lad5288 with854 me, and we will arise6965 and go;1980 that we may live,2421 and not3808 die,4191 both1571 we,587 and1571 thou,859 and also1571 our little ones.2945
9 I595 will be surety6148 for him; of my hand4480 3027 shalt thou require1245 him: if518 I bring935 him not3808 unto413 thee, and set3322 him before6440 thee, then let me bear the blame2398 forever:3605 3117
10 For3588 except3884 we had lingered,4102 surely3588 now6258 we had returned7725 this2088 second time.6471
11 And their father1 Israel3478 said559 unto413 them, If518 it must be so3651 now,645 do6213 this;2063 take3947 of the best fruits4480 2173 in the land776 in your vessels,3627 and carry down3381 the man376 a present,4503 a little4592 balm,6875 and a little4592 honey,1706 spices,5219 and myrrh,3910 nuts,992 and almonds:8247
12 And take3947 double4932 money3701 in your hand;3027 and the money3701 that was brought again7725 in the mouth6310 of your sacks,572 carry it again7725 in your hand;3027 peradventure194 it1931 was an oversight:4870
13 Take3947 also your brother,251 and arise,6965 go again7725 unto413 the man:376
14 And God410 Almighty7706 give5414 you mercy7356 before6440 the man,376 that he may send away7971 853 your other312 brother,251 and Benjamin.1144 If834 I589 be bereaved7921 of my children, I am bereaved.7921
15 And the men376 took3947 853 that2063 present,4503 and they took3947 double4932 money3701 in their hand,3027 and Benjamin;1144 and rose up,6965 and went down3381 to Egypt,4714 and stood5975 before6440 Joseph.3130
16 And when Joseph3130 saw7200 853 Benjamin1144 with854 them, he said559 to the ruler of834 5921 his house,1004 Bring935 853 these men376 home,1004 and slay,2873 2874 and make ready;3559 for3588 these men376 shall dine398 with854 me at noon.6672
17 And the man376 did6213 as834 Joseph3130 bade;559 and the man376 brought935 853 the men376 into Joseph's3130 house.1004
18 And the men376 were afraid,3372 because3588 they were brought935 into Joseph's3130 house;1004 and they said,559 Because of5921 1697 the money3701 that was returned7725 in our sacks572 at the first time8462 are we587 brought in;935 that he may seek occasion1556 against5921 us, and fall5307 upon5921 us, and take3947 us for bondmen,5650 and our asses.2543
19 And they came near5066 to413 the steward376 834 5921 of Joseph's3130 house,1004 and they communed1696 with413 him at the door6607 of the house,1004
20 And said,559 O994 sir,113 we came indeed down3381 3381 at the first time8462 to buy7666 food:400
21 And it came to pass,1961 when3588 we came935 to413 the inn,4411 that we opened6605 853 our sacks,572 and, behold,2009 every man's376 money3701 was in the mouth6310 of his sack,572 our money3701 in full weight:4948 and we have brought it again7725 853 in our hand.3027
22 And other312 money3701 have we brought down3381 in our hands3027 to buy7666 food:400 we cannot3808 tell3045 who4310 put7760 our money3701 in our sacks.572
23 And he said,559 Peace7965 be to you, fear3372 not:408 your God,430 and the God430 of your father,1 hath given5414 you treasure4301 in your sacks:572 I had935 your money.3701 And he brought Simeon out3318 853 8095 unto413 them.
24 And the man376 brought935 853 the men376 into Joseph's3130 house,1004 and gave5414 them water,4325 and they washed7364 their feet;7272 and he gave5414 their asses2543 provender.4554
25 And they made ready3559 853 the present4503 against5704 Joseph3130 came935 at noon:6672 for3588 they heard8085 that3588 they should eat398 bread3899 there.8033
26 And when Joseph3130 came935 home,1004 they brought935 him 853 the present4503 which834 was in their hand3027 into the house,1004 and bowed themselves7812 to him to the earth.776
27 And he asked7592 them of their welfare,7965 and said,559 Is your father1 well,7965 the old man2205 of whom834 ye spoke?559 Is he yet5750 alive?2416
28 And they answered,559 Thy servant5650 our father1 is in good health,7965 he is yet5750 alive.2416 And they bowed down their heads,6915 and made obeisance.7812
29 And he lifted up5375 his eyes,5869 and saw7200 his brother251 853 Benjamin,1144 his mother's517 son,1121 and said,559 Is this2088 your younger6996 brother,251 of whom834 ye spoke559 unto413 me? And he said,559 God430 be gracious2603 unto thee, my son.1121
30 And Joseph3130 made haste;4116 for3588 his bowels7356 did yearn3648 upon413 his brother:251 and he sought1245 where to weep;1058 and he entered into935 his chamber,2315 and wept1058 there.8033
31 And he washed7364 his face,6440 and went out,3318 and refrained himself,662 and said,559 Set on7760 bread.3899
32 And they set on7760 for him by himself,905 and for them by themselves,905 and for the Egyptians,4713 which did eat398 with854 him, by themselves:905 because3588 the Egyptians4713 might3201 not3808 eat398 bread3899 with854 the Hebrews;5680 for3588 that1931 is an abomination8441 unto the Egyptians.4714
33 And they sat3427 before6440 him, the firstborn1060 according to his birthright,1062 and the youngest6810 according to his youth:6812 and the men376 marveled8539 one376 at413 another.7453
34 And he took5375 and sent messes4864 unto413 them from4480 854 before6440 him: but Benjamin's1144 mess4864 was five times so much as7235 4480 4864 2568 3027 any3605 of theirs. And they drank,8354 and were merry7937 with5973 him.
1 And he commanded6680 853 the steward834 5921 of his house,1004 saying,559 Fill4390 853 the men's376 sacks572 with food,400 as much as834 they can3201 carry,5375 and put7760 every man's376 money3701 in his sack's572 mouth.6310
2 And put7760 my cup,1375 the silver3701 cup,1375 in the sack's572 mouth6310 of the youngest,6996 and his corn7668 money.3701 And he did6213 according to the word1697 that834 Joseph3130 had spoken.1696
3 As soon as the morning1242 was light,215 the men376 were sent away,7971 they1992 and their asses.2543
4 And when they1992 were gone out of3318 853 the city,5892 and not3808 yet far off,7368 Joseph3130 said559 unto his steward,834 5921 1004 Up,6965 follow7291 after310 the men;376 and when thou dost overtake5381 them, say559 unto413 them, Wherefore4100 have ye rewarded7999 evil7451 for8478 good?2896
5 Is not3808 this2088 it in which834 my lord113 drinketh,8354 and whereby indeed he divineth?1931 5172 5172 ye have done evil7489 in so834 doing.6213
6 And he overtook5381 them, and he spoke1696 unto413 them 853 these same428 words.1697
7 And they said559 unto413 him, Wherefore4100 saith1696 my lord113 these428 words?1697 God forbid2486 that thy servants5650 should do4480 6213 according to this2088 thing:1697
8 Behold,2005 the money,3701 which834 we found4672 in our sacks'572 mouths,6310 we brought again7725 unto413 thee out of the land4480 776 of Canaan:3667 how349 then should we steal1589 out of thy lord's house4480 1004 113 silver3701 or176 gold?2091
9 With854 whomsoever834 of thy servants4480 5650 it be found,4672 both let him die,4191 and we587 also1571 will be1961 my lord's113 bondmen.5650
10 And he said,559 Now6258 also1571 3651 let it1931 be according unto your words:1697 he with854 whom834 it is found4672 shall be1961 my servant;5650 and ye859 shall be1961 blameless.5355
11 Then they speedily4116 took down3381 every man376 853 his sack572 to the ground,776 and opened6605 every man376 his sack.572
12 And he searched,2664 and began2490 at the eldest,1419 and left3615 at the youngest:6996 and the cup1375 was found4672 in Benjamin's1144 sack.572
13 Then they rent7167 their clothes,8071 and laded6006 every man376 his ass,2543 and returned7725 to the city.5892
14 And Judah3063 and his brethren251 came935 to Joseph's3130 house;1004 for he1931 was yet5750 there:8033 and they fell5307 before6440 him on the ground.776
15 And Joseph3130 said559 unto them, What4100 deed4639 is this2088 that834 ye have done?6213 know3045 ye not3808 that3588 such a man376 as I3644 can certainly divine?5172 5172
16 And Judah3063 said,559 What4100 shall we say559 unto my lord?113 what4100 shall we speak?1696 or how4100 shall we clear ourselves?6663 God430 hath found out4672 853 the iniquity5771 of thy servants:5650 behold,2009 we are my lord's113 servants,5650 both1571 we,587 and he also1571 with whom834 3027 the cup1375 is found.4672
17 And he said,559 God forbid2486 that I should do4480 6213 so:2063 but the man376 in whose834 hand3027 the cup1375 is found,4672 he1931 shall be1961 my servant;5650 and as for you,859 get you up5927 in peace7965 unto413 your father.1
18 Then Judah3063 came near5066 unto him,413 and said,559 Oh994 my lord,113 let thy servant,5650 I pray thee,4994 speak1696 a word1697 in my lord's113 ears,241 and let not408 thine anger639 burn2734 against thy servant:5650 for3588 thou art even as3644 Pharaoh.6547
19 My lord113 asked7592 853 his servants,5650 saying,559 Have3426 ye a father,1 or176 a brother?251
20 And we said559 unto413 my lord,113 We have3426 a father,1 an old man,2205 and a child3206 of his old age,2208 a little one;6996 and his brother251 is dead,4191 and he1931 alone905 is left3498 of his mother,517 and his father1 loveth157 him.
21 And thou saidst559 unto413 thy servants,5650 Bring him down3381 unto413 me, that I may set7760 mine eyes5869 upon5921 him.
22 And we said559 unto413 my lord,113 The lad5288 cannot3808 3201 leave5800 853 his father:1 for if he should leave5800 853 his father,1 his father would die.4191
23 And thou saidst559 unto413 thy servants,5650 Except518 3808 your youngest6996 brother251 come down3381 with854 you, ye shall see7200 my face6440 no3808 more.3254
24 And it came to pass1961 when3588 we came up5927 unto413 thy servant5650 my father,1 we told5046 him 853 the words1697 of my lord.113
25 And our father1 said,559 Go again,7725 and buy7666 us a little4592 food.400
26 And we said,559 We cannot3808 3201 go down:3381 if518 our youngest6996 brother251 be3426 with854 us, then will we go down:3381 for3588 we may3201 not3808 see7200 the man's376 face,6440 except369 our youngest6996 brother251 be with854 us.
27 And thy servant5650 my father1 said559 unto413 us, Ye859 know3045 that3588 my wife802 bore3205 me two8147 sons:
28 And the one259 went out3318 from4480 854 me, and I said,559 Surely389 he is torn in pieces;2963 2963 and I saw7200 him not3808 since:5704 2008
29 And if ye take3947 853 this2088 also1571 from4480 5973 me,6440 and mischief611 befall7136 him, ye shall bring down3381 853 my gray hairs7872 with sorrow7451 to the grave.7585
30 Now6258 therefore when I come935 to413 thy servant5650 my father,1 and the lad5288 be not369 with854 us; seeing that his life5315 is bound up7194 in the lad's life;5315
31 It shall come to pass,1961 when he seeth7200 that3588 the lad5288 is not369 with us, that he will die:4191 and thy servants5650 shall bring down3381 853 the gray hairs7872 of thy servant5650 our father1 with sorrow3015 to the grave.7585
32 For3588 thy servant5650 became surety6148 for 853 the lad5288 unto4480 5973 my father,1 saying,559 If518 I bring935 him not3808 unto413 thee, then I shall bear the blame2398 to my father1 forever.3605 3117
33 Now6258 therefore, I pray thee,4994 let thy servant5650 abide3427 instead of8478 the lad5288 a bondman5650 to my lord;113 and let the lad5288 go up5927 with5973 his brethren.251
34 For3588 how349 shall I go up5927 to413 my father,1 and the lad5288 be not369 with854 me? lest peradventure6435 I see7200 the evil7451 that834 shall come on4672 853 my father.1
1 Then Joseph3130 could3201 not3808 refrain himself662 before all3605 them that stood5324 by5921 him; and he cried,7121 Cause every3605 man376 to go out3318 from4480 5921 me. And there stood5975 no3808 man376 with854 him, while Joseph3130 made himself known3045 unto413 his brethren.251
2 And he wept aloud:5414 853 6963 1065 and the Egyptians4714 and the house1004 of Pharaoh6547 heard.8085
3 And Joseph3130 said559 unto413 his brethren,251 I589 am Joseph;3130 doth my father1 yet5750 live?2416 And his brethren251 could3201 not3808 answer6030 him; for3588 they were troubled926 at his presence.4480 6440
4 And Joseph3130 said559 unto413 his brethren,251 Come near5066 to413 me, I pray you.4994 And they came near.5066 And he said,559 I589 am Joseph3130 your brother,251 whom834 ye sold4376 into Egypt.4714
5 Now6258 therefore be not408 grieved,6087 nor408 angry2734 with yourselves,5869 that3588 ye sold4376 me hither:2008 for3588 God430 did send7971 me before6440 you to preserve life.4241
6 For3588 these2088 two years8141 hath the famine7458 been in7130 the land:776 and yet5750 there are five2568 years,8141 in the which834 there shall neither369 be earing2758 nor harvest.7105
7 And God430 sent7971 me before6440 you to preserve7760 you a posterity7611 in the earth,776 and to save your lives2421 by a great1419 deliverance.6413
8 So now6258 it was not3808 you859 that sent7971 me hither,2008 but3588 God:430 and he hath made7760 me a father1 to Pharaoh,6547 and lord113 of all3605 his house,1004 and a ruler4910 throughout all3605 the land776 of Egypt.4714
9 Haste4116 ye, and go up5927 to413 my father,1 and say559 unto413 him, Thus3541 saith559 thy son1121 Joseph,3130 God430 hath made7760 me lord113 of all3605 Egypt:4714 come down3381 unto413 me, tarry5975 not:408
10 And thou shalt dwell3427 in the land776 of Goshen,1657 and thou shalt be1961 near7138 unto413 me, thou,859 and thy children,1121 and thy children's1121 children,1121 and thy flocks,6629 and thy herds,1241 and all3605 that834 thou hast:
11 And there8033 will I nourish3557 thee; for3588 yet5750 there are five2568 years8141 of famine;7458 lest6435 thou,859 and thy household,1004 and all3605 that834 thou hast, come to poverty.3423
12 And, behold,2009 your eyes5869 see,7200 and the eyes5869 of my brother251 Benjamin,1144 that3588 it is my mouth6310 that speaketh1696 unto413 you.
13 And ye shall tell5046 my father1 of 853 all3605 my glory3519 in Egypt,4714 and of all3605 that834 ye have seen;7200 and ye shall haste4116 and bring down3381 853 my father1 hither.2008
14 And he fell5307 upon5921 his brother251 Benjamin's1144 neck,6677 and wept;1058 and Benjamin1144 wept1058 upon5921 his neck.6677
15 Moreover he kissed5401 all3605 his brethren,251 and wept1058 upon5921 them: and after310 that3651 his brethren251 talked1696 with854 him.
16 And the fame6963 thereof was heard8085 in Pharaoh's6547 house,1004 saying,559 Joseph's3130 brethren251 are come:935 and it pleased Pharaoh well,3190 5869 6547 and his servants.5650
17 And Pharaoh6547 said559 unto413 Joseph,3130 Say559 unto413 thy brethren,251 This2063 do6213 ye; lade2943 853 your beasts,1165 and go,1980 get935 you unto the land776 of Canaan;3667
18 And take3947 853 your father1 and your households,1004 and come935 unto413 me: and I will give5414 you 853 the good2898 of the land776 of Egypt,4714 and ye shall eat398 853 the fat2459 of the land.776
19 Now thou859 art commanded,6680 this2063 do6213 ye; take3947 you wagons5699 out of the land4480 776 of Egypt4714 for your little ones,2945 and for your wives,802 and bring5375 853 your father,1 and come.935
20 Also regard5869 2347 not408 your stuff;3627 for3588 the good2898 of all3605 the land776 of Egypt4714 is yours.
21 And the children1121 of Israel3478 did6213 so:3651 and Joseph3130 gave5414 them wagons,5699 according to5921 the commandment6310 of Pharaoh,6547 and gave5414 them provision6720 for the way.1870
22 To all3605 of them he gave5414 each man376 changes2487 of raiment;8071 but to Benjamin1144 he gave5414 three7969 hundred3967 pieces of silver,3701 and five2568 changes2487 of raiment.8071
23 And to his father1 he sent7971 after this2063 manner; ten6235 asses2543 laden5375 with the good things4480 2898 of Egypt,4714 and ten6235 she asses860 laden5375 with corn1250 and bread3899 and meat4202 for his father1 by the way.1870
24 So he sent7971 853 his brethren251 away, and they departed:1980 and he said559 unto413 them, See that ye fall not out7264 408 by the way.1870
25 And they went up5927 out of Egypt,4480 4714 and came935 into the land776 of Canaan3667 unto413 Jacob3290 their father,1
26 And told5046 him, saying,559 Joseph3130 is yet5750 alive,2416 and he1931 is governor4910 over all3605 the land776 of Egypt.4714 And Jacob's heart3820 fainted,6313 for3588 he believed539 them not.3808
27 And they told1696 413 him 853 all3605 the words1697 of Joseph,3130 which834 he had said1696 unto413 them: and when he saw7200 853 the wagons5699 which834 Joseph3130 had sent7971 to carry5375 him, the spirit7307 of Jacob3290 their father1 revived:2421
28 And Israel3478 said,559 It is enough;7227 Joseph3130 my son1121 is yet5750 alive:2416 I will go1980 and see7200 him before2962 I die.4191
1 And Israel3478 took his journey5265 with all3605 that834 he had, and came935 to Beer-sheba,884 and offered2076 sacrifices2077 unto the God430 of his father1 Isaac.3327
2 And God430 spoke559 unto Israel3478 in the visions4759 of the night,3915 and said,559 Jacob,3290 Jacob.3290 And he said,559 Here2009 am I.
3 And he said,559 I595 am God,410 the God430 of thy father:1 fear3372 not408 to go down4480 3381 into Egypt;4714 for3588 I will there8033 make7760 of thee a great1419 nation:1471
4 I595 will go down3381 with5973 thee into Egypt;4714 and I595 will also1571 surely bring thee up5927 5927 again: and Joseph3130 shall put7896 his hand3027 upon5921 thine eyes.5869
5 And Jacob3290 rose up6965 from Beer-sheba:4480 884 and the sons1121 of Israel3478 carried5375 853 Jacob3290 their father,1 and their little ones,2945 and their wives,802 in the wagons5699 which834 Pharaoh6547 had sent7971 to carry5375 him.
6 And they took3947 853 their cattle,4735 and their goods,7399 which834 they had gotten7408 in the land776 of Canaan,3667 and came935 into Egypt,4714 Jacob,3290 and all3605 his seed2233 with854 him:
7 His sons,1121 and his sons'1121 sons1121 with854 him, his daughters,1323 and his sons'1121 daughters,1323 and all3605 his seed2233 brought935 he with854 him into Egypt.4714
8 And these428 are the names8034 of the children1121 of Israel,3478 which came935 into Egypt,4714 Jacob3290 and his sons:1121 Reuben,7205 Jacob's3290 firstborn.1060
9 And the sons1121 of Reuben;7205 Hanoch,2585 and Phallu,6396 and Hezron,2696 and Carmi.3756

11 And the sons1121 of Levi;3878 Gershon,1648 Kohath,6955 and Merari.4847
12 And the sons1121 of Judah;3063 Er,6147 and Onan,209 and Shelah,7956 and Pharez,6557 and Zerah:2226 but Er6147 and Onan209 died4191 in the land776 of Canaan.3667 And the sons1121 of Pharez6557 were1961 Hezron2696 and Hamul.2538
13 And the sons1121 of Issachar;3485 Tola,8439 and Phuvah,6312 and Job,3102 and Shimron.8110
14 And the sons1121 of Zebulun;2074 Sered,5624 and Elon,356 and Jahleel.3177
15 These428 be the sons1121 of Leah,3812 which834 she bore3205 unto Jacob3290 in Padan-aram,6307 with854 his daughter1323 Dinah:1783 all3605 the souls5315 of his sons1121 and his daughters1323 were thirty7970 and three.7969
16 And the sons1121 of Gad;1410 Ziphion,6837 and Haggi,2291 Shuni,7764 and Ezbon,675 Eri,6179 and Arodi,722 and Areli.692

18 These428 are the sons1121 of Zilpah,2153 whom834 Laban3837 gave5414 to Leah3812 his daughter,1323 and 853 these428 she bore3205 unto Jacob,3290 even sixteen8337 6240 souls.5315
19 The sons1121 of Rachel7354 Jacob's3290 wife;802 Joseph,3130 and Benjamin.1144
20 And unto Joseph3130 in the land776 of Egypt4714 were born3205 853 Manasseh4519 and Ephraim,669 which834 Asenath621 the daughter1323 of Poti-pherah6319 priest3548 of On204 bore3205 unto him.

22 These428 are the sons1121 of Rachel,7354 which834 were born3205 to Jacob:3290 all3605 the souls5315 were fourteen.702 6240
23 And the sons1121 of Dan;1835 Hushim.2366
24 And the sons1121 of Naphtali;5321 Jahzeel,3183 and Guni,1476 and Jezer,3337 and Shillem.8006
25 These428 are the sons1121 of Bilhah,1090 which834 Laban3837 gave5414 unto Rachel7354 his daughter,1323 and she bore3205 853 these428 unto Jacob:3290 all3605 the souls5315 were seven.7651
26 All3605 the souls5315 that came935 with Jacob3290 into Egypt,4714 which came out3318 of his loins,3409 besides4480 905 Jacob's3290 sons'1121 wives,802 all3605 the souls5315 were threescore8346 and six;8337

28 And he sent7971 Judah3063 before6440 him unto413 Joseph,3130 to direct3384 his face6440 unto Goshen;1657 and they came935 into the land776 of Goshen.1657
29 And Joseph3130 made ready631 his chariot,4818 and went up5927 to meet7125 Israel3478 his father,1 to Goshen,1657 and presented himself7200 unto413 him; and he fell5307 on5921 his neck,6677 and wept1058 on5921 his neck6677 a good while.5750
30 And Israel3478 said559 unto413 Joseph,3130 Now6471 let me die,4191 since310 I have seen7200 853 thy face,6440 because3588 thou art yet5750 alive.2416
31 And Joseph3130 said559 unto413 his brethren,251 and unto413 his father's1 house,1004 I will go up,5927 and show5046 Pharaoh,6547 and say559 unto413 him, My brethren,251 and my father's1 house,1004 which834 were in the land776 of Canaan,3667 are come935 unto413 me;
32 And the men376 are shepherds,7462 6629 for3588 their trade376 hath been1961 to feed cattle;4735 and they have brought935 their flocks,6629 and their herds,1241 and all3605 that834 they have.
33 And it shall come to pass,1961 when3588 Pharaoh6547 shall call7121 you, and shall say,559 What4100 is your occupation?4639
34 That ye shall say,559 Thy servants'5650 trade376 hath been1961 about cattle4735 from our youth4480 5271 even until5704 now,6258 both1571 we,587 and also1571 our fathers:1 that5668 ye may dwell3427 in the land776 of Goshen;1657 for3588 every3605 shepherd7462 6629 is an abomination8441 unto the Egyptians.4714
1 Then Joseph3130 came935 and told5046 Pharaoh,6547 and said,559 My father1 and my brethren,251 and their flocks,6629 and their herds,1241 and all3605 that834 they have, are come935 out of the land4480 776 of Canaan;3667 and, behold,2009 they are in the land776 of Goshen.1657
2 And he took3947 some4480 7097 of his brethren,251 even five2568 men,376 and presented3322 them unto6440 Pharaoh.6547
3 And Pharaoh6547 said559 unto413 his brethren,251 What4100 is your occupation?4639 And they said559 unto413 Pharaoh,6547 Thy servants5650 are shepherds,7462 6629 both1571 we,587 and also1571 our fathers.1
4 They said559 moreover unto413 Pharaoh,6547 For to sojourn1481 in the land776 are we come;935 for3588 834 thy servants5650 have no369 pasture4829 for their flocks;6629 for3588 the famine7458 is sore3515 in the land776 of Canaan:3667 now6258 therefore, we pray thee,4994 let thy servants5650 dwell3427 in the land776 of Goshen.1657
5 And Pharaoh6547 spoke559 unto413 Joseph,3130 saying,559 Thy father1 and thy brethren251 are come935 unto413 thee:
6 The land776 of Egypt4714 is before6440 thee; in the best4315 of the land776 make 853 thy father1 and brethren251 to dwell;3427 in the land776 of Goshen1657 let them dwell:3427 and if518 thou knowest3045 any men376 of activity2428 among them, then make7760 them rulers8269 over my5921 834 cattle.4735
7 And Joseph3130 brought in935 853 Jacob3290 his father,1 and set5975 him before6440 Pharaoh:6547 and Jacob3290 blessed1288 853 Pharaoh.6547
8 And Pharaoh6547 said559 unto413 Jacob,3290 How4100 old3117 8141 2416 art thou?
9 And Jacob3290 said559 unto413 Pharaoh,6547 The days3117 of the years8141 of my pilgrimage4033 are a hundred3967 and thirty7970 years:8141 few4592 and evil7451 have the days3117 of the years8141 of my life2416 been,1961 and have not3808 attained unto5381 853 the days3117 of the years8141 of the life2416 of my fathers1 in the days3117 of their pilgrimage.4033
10 And Jacob3290 blessed1288 853 Pharaoh,6547 and went out3318 from before4480 6440 Pharaoh.6547
11 And Joseph3130 placed3427 853 his father1 and his brethren,251 and gave5414 them a possession272 in the land776 of Egypt,4714 in the best4315 of the land,776 in the land776 of Rameses,7486 as834 Pharaoh6547 had commanded.6680
12 And Joseph3130 nourished3557 853 his father,1 and his brethren,251 and all3605 his father's1 household,1004 with bread,3899 according to6310 their families.2945
13 And there was no369 bread3899 in all3605 the land;776 for3588 the famine7458 was very3966 sore,3515 so that the land776 of Egypt4714 and all the land776 of Canaan3667 fainted3856 by reason of4480 6440 the famine.7458
14 And Joseph3130 gathered up3950 853 all3605 the money3701 that was found4672 in the land776 of Egypt,4714 and in the land776 of Canaan,3667 for the corn7668 which834 they1992 bought:7666 and Joseph3130 brought935 853 the money3701 into Pharaoh's6547 house.1004
15 And when money3701 failed8552 in the land4480 776 of Egypt,4714 and in the land4480 776 of Canaan,3667 all3605 the Egyptians4714 came935 unto413 Joseph,3130 and said,559 Give3051 us bread:3899 for why4100 should we die4191 in thy presence?5048 for3588 the money3701 faileth.656
16 And Joseph3130 said,559 Give3051 your cattle;4735 and I will give5414 you for your cattle,4735 if518 money3701 fail.656
17 And they brought935 853 their cattle4735 unto413 Joseph:3130 and Joseph3130 gave5414 them bread3899 in exchange for horses,5483 and for the flocks,4735 6629 and for the cattle4735 of the herds,1241 and for the asses:2543 and he fed5095 them with bread3899 for all3605 their cattle4735 for that1931 year.8141
18 When that1931 year8141 was ended,8552 they came935 unto413 him the second8145 year,8141 and said559 unto him, We will not3808 hide3582 it from4480 my lord,113 how that3588 518 our money3701 is spent;8552 my lord113 also hath413 our herds4735 of cattle;929 there is not3808 aught left7604 in the sight6440 of my lord,113 but1115 518 our bodies,1472 and our lands:127
19 Wherefore4100 shall we die4191 before thine eyes,5869 both1571 we587 and1571 our land?127 buy7069 us and our land127 for bread,3899 and we587 and our land127 will be1961 servants5650 unto Pharaoh:6547 and give5414 us seed,2233 that we may live,2421 and not3808 die,4191 that the land127 be not desolate.3456 3808
20 And Joseph3130 bought7069 853 all3605 the land127 of Egypt4714 for Pharaoh;6547 for3588 the Egyptians4714 sold4376 every man376 his field,7704 because3588 the famine7458 prevailed2388 over5921 them: so the land776 became1961 Pharaoh's.6547
21 And as for the people,5971 he removed5674 them to cities5892 from one end4480 7097 of the borders1366 of Egypt4714 even to5704 the other end7097 thereof.
22 Only7535 the land127 of the priests3548 bought7069 he not;3808 for3588 the priests3548 had a portion2706 assigned them of4480 854 Pharaoh,6547 and did eat398 853 their portion2706 which834 Pharaoh6547 gave5414 them: wherefore5921 3651 they sold4376 not3808 853 their lands.127
23 Then Joseph3130 said559 unto413 the people,5971 Behold,2005 I have bought7069 you this day3117 and your land127 for Pharaoh:6547 lo,1887 here is seed2233 for you, and ye shall sow2232 853 the land.127
24 And it shall come to pass1961 in the increase,8393 that ye shall give5414 the fifth2549 part unto Pharaoh,6547 and four702 parts3027 shall be1961 your own, for seed2233 of the field,7704 and for your food,400 and for them834 of your households,1004 and for food398 for your little ones.2945
25 And they said,559 Thou hast saved our lives:2421 let us find4672 grace2580 in the sight5869 of my lord,113 and we will be1961 Pharaoh's6547 servants.5650
26 And Joseph3130 made7760 it a law2706 over5921 the land127 of Egypt4714 unto5704 this2088 day,3117 that Pharaoh6547 should have the fifth2569 part; except7535 the land127 of the priests3548 only,905 which became1961 not3808 Pharaoh's.6547
27 And Israel3478 dwelt3427 in the land776 of Egypt,4714 in the country776 of Goshen;1657 and they had possessions270 therein, and grew,6509 and multiplied7235 exceedingly.3966
28 And Jacob3290 lived2421 in the land776 of Egypt4714 seventeen7651 6240 years:8141 so the whole age3117 8141 2416 of Jacob3290 was1961 a hundred3967 forty705 and seven7651 years.8141
29 And the time3117 drew nigh7126 that Israel3478 must die:4191 and he called7121 his son1121 Joseph,3130 and said559 unto him, If518 now4994 I have found4672 grace2580 in thy sight,5869 put,7760 I pray thee,4994 thy hand3027 under8478 my thigh,3409 and deal6213 kindly2617 and truly571 with5973 me; bury6912 me not,408 I pray thee,4994 in Egypt:4714
30 But I will lie7901 with5973 my fathers,1 and thou shalt carry5375 me out of Egypt,4480 4714 and bury6912 me in their burial place.6900 And he said,559 I595 will do6213 as thou hast said.1697
31 And he said,559 Swear7650 unto me. And he swore7650 unto him. And Israel3478 bowed himself7812 upon5921 the bed's4296 head.7218
1 And it came to pass1961 after310 these428 things,1697 that one told559 Joseph,3130 Behold,2009 thy father1 is sick:2470 and he took3947 with5973 him 853 his two8147 sons,1121 853 Manasseh4519 and Ephraim.669
2 And one told5046 Jacob,3290 and said,559 Behold,2009 thy son1121 Joseph3130 cometh935 unto413 thee: and Israel3478 strengthened himself,2388 and sat3427 upon5921 the bed.4296
3 And Jacob3290 said559 unto413 Joseph,3130 God410 Almighty7706 appeared7200 unto413 me at Luz3870 in the land776 of Canaan,3667 and blessed1288 me,
4 And said559 unto413 me, Behold,2009 I will make thee fruitful,6509 and multiply7235 thee, and I will make5414 of thee a multitude6951 of people;5971 and will give5414 853 this2063 land776 to thy seed2233 after310 thee for an everlasting5769 possession.272
5 And now6258 thy two8147 sons,1121 Ephraim669 and Manasseh,4519 which were born3205 unto thee in the land776 of Egypt4714 before5704 I came935 unto413 thee into Egypt,4714 are mine; as Reuben7205 and Simeon,8095 they shall be1961 mine.
6 And thy issue,4138 which834 thou begettest3205 after310 them, shall be1961 thine, and shall be called7121 after5921 the name8034 of their brethren251 in their inheritance.5159
7 And as for me,589 when I came935 from Padan,4480 6307 Rachel7354 died4191 by5921 me in the land776 of Canaan3667 in the way,1870 when yet5750 there was but a little3530 way776 to come935 unto Ephrath:672 and I buried6912 her there8033 in the way1870 of Ephrath;672 the same1931 is Bethlehem.1035
8 And Israel3478 beheld7200 Joseph's3130 853 sons,1121 and said,559 Who4310 are these?428
9 And Joseph3130 said559 unto413 his father,1 They1992 are my sons,1121 whom834 God430 hath given5414 me in this2088 place. And he said,559 Bring3947 them, I pray thee,4994 unto413 me, and I will bless1288 them.
10 Now the eyes5869 of Israel3478 were dim3513 for age,4480 2207 so that he could3201 not3808 see.7200 And he brought them near5066 853 unto413 him; and he kissed5401 them, and embraced2263 them.
11 And Israel3478 said559 unto413 Joseph,3130 I had not3808 thought6419 to see7200 thy face:6440 and, lo,2009 God430 hath showed7200 me also1571 853 thy seed.2233
12 And Joseph3130 brought them out3318 853 from between4480 5973 his knees,1290 and he bowed himself7812 with his face639 to the earth.776
13 And Joseph3130 took3947 853 them both,8147 853 Ephraim669 in his right hand3225 toward Israel's3478 left hand,4480 8040 and Manasseh4519 in his left hand8040 toward Israel's3478 right hand,4480 3225 and brought them near5066 unto413 him.
14 And Israel3478 stretched out7971 853 his right hand,3225 and laid7896 it upon5921 Ephraim's669 head,7218 who1931 was the younger,6810 and his left hand8040 upon5921 Manasseh's4519 head,7218 guiding his hands wittingly;7919 853 3027 for3588 Manasseh4519 was the firstborn.1060
15 And he blessed1288 853 Joseph,3130 and said,559 God,430 before6440 whom834 my fathers1 Abraham85 and Isaac3327 did walk,1980 the God430 which fed7462 me all my life long4480 5750 unto5704 this2088 day,3117
16 The Angel4397 which redeemed1350 me from all4480 3605 evil,7451 bless1288 853 the lads;5288 and let my name8034 be named7121 on them, and the name8034 of my fathers1 Abraham85 and Isaac;3327 and let them grow1711 into a multitude7230 in the midst7130 of the earth.776
17 And when Joseph3130 saw7200 that3588 his father1 laid7896 his right3225 hand3027 upon5921 the head7218 of Ephraim,669 it displeased7489 5869 him: and he held up8551 his father's1 hand,3027 to remove5493 it from4480 5921 Ephraim's669 head7218 unto5921 Manasseh's4519 head.7218
18 And Joseph3130 said559 unto413 his father,1 Not3808 so,3651 my father:1 for3588 this2088 is the firstborn;1060 put7760 thy right hand3225 upon5921 his head.7218
19 And his father1 refused,3985 and said,559 I know3045 it, my son,1121 I know3045 it: he1931 also1571 shall become1961 a people,5971 and he1931 also1571 shall be great:1431 but truly199 his younger6996 brother251 shall be greater1431 than4480 he, and his seed2233 shall become1961 a multitude4393 of nations.1471
20 And he blessed1288 them that1931 day,3117 saying,559 In thee shall Israel3478 bless,1288 saying,559 God430 make7760 thee as Ephraim669 and as Manasseh:4519 and he set7760 853 Ephraim669 before6440 Manasseh.4519
21 And Israel3478 said559 unto413 Joseph,3130 Behold,2009 I595 die:4191 but God430 shall be1961 with5973 you, and bring you again7725 853 unto413 the land776 of your fathers.1
22 Moreover I589 have given5414 to thee one259 portion7926 above5921 thy brethren,251 which834 I took3947 out of the hand4480 3027 of the Amorite567 with my sword2719 and with my bow.7198
1 And Jacob3290 called7121 unto413 his sons,1121 and said,559 Gather yourselves together,622 that I may tell5046 you that 853 which834 shall befall7122 you in the last319 days.3117
2 Gather yourselves together,6908 and hear,8085 ye sons1121 of Jacob;3290 and hearken8085 unto413 Israel3478 your father.1
3 Reuben,7205 thou859 art my firstborn,1060 my might,3581 and the beginning7225 of my strength,202 the excellency3499 of dignity,7613 and the excellency3499 of power:5794
4 Unstable6349 as water,4325 thou shalt not408 excel;3498 because3588 thou wentest up5927 to thy father's1 bed;4904 then227 defiledst2490 thou it: he went up5927 to my couch.3326
5 Simeon8095 and Levi3878 are brethren;251 instruments3627 of cruelty2555 are in their habitations.4380
6 O my soul,5315 come935 not408 thou into their secret;5475 unto their assembly,6951 mine honor,3519 be not408 thou united:3161 for3588 in their anger639 they slew2026 a man,376 and in their self-will7522 they digged down6131 a wall.7791
7 Cursed779 be their anger,639 for3588 it was fierce;5794 and their wrath,5678 for3588 it was cruel:7185 I will divide2505 them in Jacob,3290 and scatter6327 them in Israel.3478
8 Judah,3063 thou859 art he whom thy brethren251 shall praise:3034 thy hand3027 shall be in the neck6203 of thine enemies;341 thy father's1 children1121 shall bow down7812 before thee.
9 Judah3063 is a lion's738 whelp:1482 from the prey,4480 2964 my son,1121 thou art gone up:5927 he stooped down,3766 he couched7257 as a lion,738 and as an old lion;3833 who4310 shall rouse him up?6965
10 The scepter7626 shall not3808 depart5493 from Judah,4480 3063 nor a lawgiver2710 from between4480 996 his feet,7272 until5704 3588 Shiloh7886 come;935 and unto him shall the gathering3349 of the people5971 be.
11 Binding631 his foal5895 unto the vine,1612 and his ass's860 colt1121 unto the choice vine;8321 he washed3526 his garments3830 in wine,3196 and his clothes5497 in the blood1818 of grapes:6025
12 His eyes5869 shall be red2447 with wine,4480 3196 and his teeth8127 white3836 with milk.4480 2461
13 Zebulun2074 shall dwell7931 at the haven2348 of the sea;3220 and he1931 shall be for a haven2348 of ships;591 and his border3411 shall be unto5921 Zidon.6721
14 Issachar3485 is a strong1634 ass2543 couching down7257 between996 two burdens:4942
15 And he saw7200 that3588 rest4496 was good,2896 and the land776 that3588 it was pleasant;5276 and bowed5186 his shoulder7926 to bear,5445 and became1961 a servant5647 unto tribute.4522
16 Dan1835 shall judge1777 his people,5971 as one259 of the tribes7626 of Israel.3478
17 Dan1835 shall be1961 a serpent5175 by5921 the way,1870 an adder8207 in5921 the path,734 that biteth5391 the horse5483 heels,6119 so that his rider7392 shall fall5307 backward.268
18 I have waited6960 for thy salvation,3444 O LORD.3068
19 Gad,1410 a troop1416 shall overcome1464 him: but he1931 shall overcome1464 at the last.6119
20 Out of Asher4480 836 his bread3899 shall be fat,8082 and he1931 shall yield5414 royal4428 dainties.4574
21 Naphtali5321 is a hind355 let loose:7971 he giveth5414 goodly8233 words.561
22 Joseph3130 is a fruitful6509 bough,1121 even a fruitful6509 bough1121 by5921 a well;5869 whose branches1323 run6805 over5921 the wall:7791
23 The archers1167 2671 have sorely grieved4843 him, and shot7232 at him, and hated7852 him:
24 But his bow7198 abode3427 in strength,386 and the arms2220 of his hands3027 were made strong6339 by the hands4480 3027 of the mighty46 God of Jacob;3290 (from thence4480 8033 is the shepherd,7462 the stone68 of Israel:)3478
25 Even by the God4480 410 of thy father,1 who shall help5826 thee; and by the Almighty,7706 who shall bless1288 thee with blessings1293 of heaven8064 above,4480 5920 blessings1293 of the deep8415 that lieth7257 under,8478 blessings1293 of the breasts,7699 and of the womb:7356
26 The blessings1293 of thy father1 have prevailed1396 above5921 the blessings1293 of my progenitors2029 unto5704 the utmost bound8379 of the everlasting5769 hills:1389 they shall be1961 on the head7218 of Joseph,3130 and on the crown of the head6936 of him that was separate from5139 his brethren.251
27 Benjamin1144 shall ravin2963 as a wolf:2061 in the morning1242 he shall devour398 the prey,5706 and at night6153 he shall divide2505 the spoil.7998
28 All3605 these428 are the twelve8147 6240 tribes7626 of Israel:3478 and this2063 is it that834 their father1 spoke1696 unto them, and blessed1288 them; every one376 834 according to his blessing1293 he blessed1288 them.
29 And he charged6680 them, and said559 unto413 them, I589 am to be gathered622 unto413 my people:5971 bury6912 me with413 my fathers1 in413 the cave4631 that834 is in the field7704 of Ephron6085 the Hittite,2850
30 In the cave4631 that834 is in the field7704 of Machpelah,4375 which834 is before5921 6440 Mamre,4471 in the land776 of Canaan,3667 which834 Abraham85 bought7069 with854 the field7704 of4480 854 Ephron6085 the Hittite2850 for a possession272 of a burial place.6913
31 There8033 they buried6912 853 Abraham85 and Sarah8283 his wife;802 there8033 they buried6912 853 Isaac3327 and Rebekah7259 his wife;802 and there8033 I buried6912 853 Leah.3812
32 The purchase4735 of the field7704 and of the cave4631 that834 is therein was from4480 854 the children1121 of Heth.2845
33 And when Jacob3290 had made an end3615 of commanding6680 853 his sons,1121 he gathered up622 his feet7272 into413 the bed,4296 and yielded up the ghost,1478 and was gathered622 unto413 his people.5971
1 And Joseph3130 fell5307 upon5921 his father's1 face,6440 and wept1058 upon5921 him, and kissed5401 him.
2 And Joseph3130 commanded6680 853 his servants5650 853 the physicians7495 to embalm2590 853 his father:1 and the physicians7495 embalmed2590 853 Israel.3478
3 And forty705 days3117 were fulfilled4390 for him; for3588 so3651 are fulfilled4390 the days3117 of those which are embalmed:2590 and the Egyptians4714 mourned1058 for him threescore and ten7657 days.3117
4 And when the days3117 of his mourning1068 were past,5674 Joseph3130 spoke1696 unto413 the house1004 of Pharaoh,6547 saying,559 If518 now4994 I have found4672 grace2580 in your eyes,5869 speak,1696 I pray you,4994 in the ears241 of Pharaoh,6547 saying,559
5 My father1 made me swear,7650 saying,559 Lo,2009 I595 die:4191 in my grave6913 which834 I have digged3738 for me in the land776 of Canaan,3667 there8033 shalt thou bury6912 me. Now6258 therefore let me go up,5927 I pray thee,4994 and bury6912 853 my father,1 and I will come again.7725
6 And Pharaoh6547 said,559 Go up,5927 and bury6912 853 thy father,1 according as834 he made thee swear.7650
7 And Joseph3130 went up5927 to bury6912 853 his father:1 and with854 him went up5927 all3605 the servants5650 of Pharaoh,6547 the elders2205 of his house,1004 and all3605 the elders2205 of the land776 of Egypt,4714
8 And all3605 the house1004 of Joseph,3130 and his brethren,251 and his father's1 house:1004 only7535 their little ones,2945 and their flocks,6629 and their herds,1241 they left5800 in the land776 of Goshen.1657
9 And there went up5927 with5973 him both1571 chariots7393 and1571 horsemen:6571 and it was1961 a very3966 great3515 company.4264
10 And they came935 to5704 the threshingfloor1637 of Atad,329 which834 is beyond5676 Jordan,3383 and there8033 they mourned5594 with a great1419 and very3966 sore3515 lamentation:4553 and he made6213 a mourning60 for his father1 seven7651 days.3117
11 And when the inhabitants3427 of the land,776 the Canaanites,3669 saw7200 853 the mourning60 in the floor1637 of Atad,329 they said,559 This2088 is a grievous3515 mourning60 to the Egyptians:4714 wherefore5921 3651 the name8034 of it was called7121 Abel-mizraim,67 which834 is beyond5676 Jordan.3383
12 And his sons1121 did6213 unto him according as3651 834 he commanded6680 them:
13 For his sons1121 carried5375 him into the land776 of Canaan,3667 and buried6912 him in the cave4631 of the field7704 of Machpelah,4375 which834 Abraham85 bought7069 with854 the field7704 for a possession272 of a burial place6913 of4480 854 Ephron6085 the Hittite,2850 before5921 6440 Mamre.4471
14 And Joseph3130 returned7725 into Egypt,4714 he,1931 and his brethren,251 and all3605 that went up5927 with854 him to bury6912 853 his father,1 after310 he had buried6912 853 his father.1
15 And when Joseph's3130 brethren251 saw7200 that3588 their father1 was dead,4191 they said,559 Joseph3130 will peradventure3863 hate7852 us, and will certainly requite7725 7725 us 853 all3605 the evil7451 which834 we did1580 unto him.
16 And they sent a messenger6680 unto413 Joseph,3130 saying,559 Thy father1 did command6680 before6440 he died,4194 saying,559
17 So3541 shall ye say559 unto Joseph,3130 Forgive,5375 I pray thee577 now,4994 the trespass6588 of thy brethren,251 and their sin;2403 for3588 they did1580 unto thee evil:7451 and now,6258 we pray thee,4994 forgive5375 the trespass6588 of the servants5650 of the God430 of thy father.1 And Joseph3130 wept1058 when they spoke1696 unto413 him.
18 And his brethren251 also1571 went1980 and fell down5307 before his face;6440 and they said,559 Behold,2009 we be thy servants.5650
19 And Joseph3130 said559 unto413 them, Fear3372 not:408 for3588 am I589 in the place8478 of God?430
20 But as for you,859 ye thought2803 evil7451 against5921 me; but God430 meant2803 it unto good,2896 to4616 bring to pass,6213 as it is this2088 day,3117 to save much people alive.2421 5971 7227
21 Now6258 therefore fear3372 ye not:408 I595 will nourish3557 you, and your little ones.2945 And he comforted5162 them, and spoke1696 kindly5921 3820 unto them.
22 And Joseph3130 dwelt3427 in Egypt,4714 he,1931 and his father's1 house:1004 and Joseph3130 lived2421 a hundred3967 and ten6235 years.8141
23 And Joseph3130 saw7200 Ephraim's669 children1121 of the third8029 generation: the children1121 also1571 of Machir4353 the son1121 of Manasseh4519 were brought up3205 upon5921 Joseph's3130 knees.1290
24 And Joseph3130 said559 unto413 his brethren,251 I595 die:4191 and God430 will surely visit6485 6485 you, and bring5927 you out of4480 this2063 land776 unto413 the land776 which834 he swore7650 to Abraham,85 to Isaac,3327 and to Jacob.3290
25 And Joseph3130 took an oath7650 of 853 the children1121 of Israel,3478 saying,559 God430 will surely visit6485 6485 you, and ye shall carry up5927 853 my bones6106 from hence.4480 2088
26 So Joseph3130 died,4191 being a hundred3967 and ten6235 years8141 old:1121 and they embalmed2590 him, and he was put3455 in a coffin727 in Egypt.4714
