hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded
thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it:

crouching at your door; it desires you, but you must master it.”

wanderer on the earth.”

thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will
shew thee:

And I will make of
thee a great nation, and I will
bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:

bless you; I will make your name great, so that you will be a blessing.

bless them that
bless thee, and
curse him that curseth
thee: and in
thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

Please say you are my sister, so that I will be treated well for your sake, and on account of you my life will be
spared.”
And
Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no
strife, I pray
thee, between me and
thee, and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we be brethren.
So
Abram said to Lot, “Please let there be no
contention between you and me, or between your herdsmen and my herdsmen. After all, we are brothers.
Is not the whole land before
thee? separate
thyself, I pray
thee, from me: if thou
wilt take the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if thou depart to the right hand, then I will go to the left.
Is not the whole land before you? Now separate
yourself from me. If you go to the left, I will go to the right; if you go to the right, I will go to the left.”

for all the land that you see, I will give to you and your offspring
forever.

And Sarai said unto
Abram, Behold now, the LORD hath restrained me from bearing: I pray
thee, go in unto my
maid; it may be that I may obtain children by her. And
Abram hearkened to the voice of Sarai.
So Sarai said to
Abram, “Look now, the LORD has prevented me from bearing children. Please go to my
maidservant; perhaps I can build a family by her.” And
Abram listened to the voice of Sarai.
And Sarai said unto
Abram, My wrong be upon
thee: I have given my
maid into thy
bosom; and when she saw that she had conceived, I was
despised in her eyes: the LORD judge between me and
thee.
Then Sarai said to
Abram, “May the wrong done to me be upon you! I delivered my servant into your arms, and ever since she saw that she was
pregnant, she has treated me with contempt. May the LORD judge between you and me.”
But
Abram said unto Sarai, Behold, thy
maid is in thy hand; do to her as it pleaseth
thee. And when Sarai dealt hardly with her, she fled from her face.
“Here,” said
Abram, “your servant is in your hands. Do whatever you want with her.” Then Sarai treated
Hagar so harshly that she fled from her.
And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.
I will establish My covenant between Me and you, and I will multiply you exceedingly.”

“As for Me, this is My covenant with you: You will be the father of many nations.
Neither shall thy name any more be called
Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made
thee.
No longer will you be called
Abram, but your name will be Abraham, for I have made you a father of many nations.
And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
I will make you exceedingly fruitful; I will make nations of you, and kings will descend from you.
And I will establish my covenant between me and
thee and thy seed after
thee in their generations for an
everlasting covenant, to be a God unto
thee, and to thy seed after
thee.
I will establish My covenant as an
everlasting covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you, to be your God and the God of your descendants after you.
And I will give unto
thee, and to thy seed after
thee, the land wherein thou art a stranger, all the land of
Canaan, for an
everlasting possession; and I will be their God.
And to you and your descendants I will give the land where you are residing—all the land of
Canaan—as an eternal possession; and I will be their God.”
And God said unto Abraham, Thou shalt keep my covenant therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee in their generations.
God also said to Abraham, “You must keep My covenant—you and your descendants in the generations after you.
This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after
thee; Every man child among you shall be
circumcised.
This is My covenant with you and your descendants after you, which you are to keep: Every male among you must be
circumcised.
And I will
bless her, and give
thee a son also of her:
yea, I will
bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of people shall be of her.
And I will
bless her and will surely give you a son by her. I will
bless her, and she will be the mother of nations; kings of peoples will descend from her.”
And Abraham said unto God, O that
Ishmael might live before
thee!
And Abraham said to God, “O that
Ishmael might live under Your blessing!”
And God said,
Sarah thy wife shall bear
thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an
everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.
But God replied, “Your wife
Sarah will indeed bear you a son, and you are to name him Isaac. I will establish My covenant with him as an
everlasting covenant for his descendants after him.
And as for
Ishmael, I have heard
thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he
beget, and I will make him a great nation.
As for
Ishmael, I have heard you, and I will surely
bless him; I will make him fruitful and multiply him greatly. He will become the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation.
But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which
Sarah shall bear unto
thee at this set time in the next year.
But I will establish My covenant with Isaac, whom
Sarah will bear to you at this time next year.”
And said, My Lord, if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant:
“My lord,” said Abraham, “if I have found favor in your sight, please do not pass your servant by.
And he said, I will certainly return unto
thee according to the time of life; and, lo,
Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And
Sarah heard it in the tent door, which was behind him.
Then the LORD said, “I will surely return to you at this time next year, and your wife
Sarah will have a son!” Now
Sarah was behind him,
listening at the entrance to the tent.
Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return unto
thee, according to the time of life, and
Sarah shall have a son.
Is anything too difficult for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you—in about a year—and
Sarah will have a son.”
That be far from
thee to do after this manner, to
slay the righteous with the wicked: and that the righteous should be as the wicked, that be far from
thee: Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?
Far be it from You to do such a thing—to kill the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous and the wicked are treated alike. Far be it from You! Will not the Judge of all the earth do what is right?”
And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
They called out to Lot, saying, “Where are the men who came to you
tonight? Send them out to us so we can have relations with them!”
And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to
sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with
thee, than with them. And they pressed
sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door.
“Get out of the way!” they replied. And they declared, “This one came here as a foreigner, and he is already acting like a judge! Now we will treat you worse than them.” And they pressed in on Lot and moved in to break down the door.
And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.
As soon as the men had brought them out, one of them said, “Run for your lives! Do not look back, and do not stop
anywhere on the plain!
Flee to the mountains, or you will be swept away!”
And he said unto him, See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for the which thou hast spoken.
“Very well,” he answered, “I will grant this request as well, and will not
demolish the town you indicate.
Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do any thing till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.
Hurry! Run there quickly, for I cannot do anything until you reach it.” That is why the town was called Zoar.
And God said unto him in a dream,
Yea, I know that thou
didst this in the
integrity of thy heart; for I also
withheld thee from
sinning against me: therefore suffered I
thee not to touch her.
Then God said to
Abimelech in the dream, “
Yes, I know that you did this with a clear conscience, and so I have kept you from
sinning against Me. That is why I did not let you touch her.
Now therefore restore the man his wife; for he is a prophet, and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live: and if thou restore her not, know thou that thou shalt surely die, thou, and all that are thine.
Now return the man’s wife, for he is a prophet; he will pray for you and you will live. But if you do not restore her, be aware that you will surely die—you and all who belong to you.”
Then
Abimelech called Abraham, and said unto him, What hast thou done unto us? and what have I
offended thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? thou hast done deeds unto me that ought not to be done.
Then
Abimelech called Abraham and asked, “What have you done to us? How have I
sinned against you, that you have brought such
tremendous guilt upon me and my kingdom? You have done things to me that should not be done.”
And
Abimelech said, Behold, my land is before
thee: dwell where it pleaseth
thee.
And
Abimelech said, “Look, my land is before you. Settle wherever you please.”
And unto
Sarah he said, Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand pieces of silver: behold, he is to
thee a covering of the eyes, unto all that are with
thee, and with all other: thus she was reproved.
And he said to
Sarah, “See, I am giving your brother a thousand pieces of silver. It is your
vindication before all who are with you; you are completely cleared.”
And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be
grievous in thy sight because of the
lad, and because of thy
bondwoman; in all that
Sarah hath said unto
thee,
hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
But God said to Abraham, “Do not be distressed about the boy and your
maidservant.
Listen to everything that
Sarah tells you, for through Isaac your offspring will be reckoned.
And God heard the voice of the
lad; and the angel of God called
Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth
thee,
Hagar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the
lad where he is.
Then God heard the voice of the boy, and the angel of God called to
Hagar from heaven, “What is wrong,
Hagar? Do not be afraid, for God has heard the voice of the boy where he lies.
And it came to pass at that time, that
Abimelech and Phichol the chief captain of his host spake unto Abraham, saying, God is with
thee in all that thou doest:
At that time
Abimelech and Phicol the commander of his army said to Abraham, “God is with you in all that you do.
Now therefore
swear unto me here by God that thou
wilt not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son’s son: but according to the kindness that I have done unto
thee, thou shalt do unto me, and to the land wherein thou hast
sojourned.
Now, therefore,
swear to me here before God that you will not deal falsely with me or my children or descendants. Show to me and to the country in which you reside the same kindness that I have shown to you.”
And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get
thee into the land of
Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell
thee of.
“Take your son,” God said, “your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of
Moriah. Offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains, which I will show you.”
That in blessing I will
bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;
I will surely
bless you, and I will multiply your descendants like the stars in the sky and the sand on the
seashore. Your descendants will possess the gates of their enemies.
Hear us, my lord: thou art a mighty prince among us: in the choice of our
sepulchres bury thy dead; none of us shall
withhold from
thee his
sepulchre, but that thou mayest
bury thy dead.
“
Listen to us, sir. You are God’s chosen one among us.
Bury your dead in the finest of our tombs. None of us will
withhold his tomb for
burying your dead.”
Nay, my lord, hear me: the field give I
thee, and the cave that is therein, I give it
thee; in the presence of the sons of my people give I it
thee:
bury thy dead.
“No, my lord.
Listen to me. I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it. I give it to you in the presence of my people.
Bury your dead.”
And he spake unto Ephron in the
audience of the people of the land, saying, But if thou
wilt give it, I pray
thee, hear me: I will give
thee money for the field; take it of me, and I will
bury my dead there.
and said to Ephron in their presence, “If you will please
listen to me, I will pay you the price of the field. Accept it from me, so that I may
bury my dead there.”
My lord,
hearken unto me: the land is worth four hundred shekels of silver; what is that
betwixt me and
thee?
bury therefore thy dead.
“
Listen to me, my lord. The land is worth four hundred shekels of silver, but what is that between you and me?
Bury your dead.”
And Abraham said unto his eldest servant of his house, that ruled over all that he had, Put, I pray
thee, thy hand under my
thigh:
So Abraham
instructed the chief servant of his household, who managed all he owned, “Place your hand under my
thigh,
And I will make
thee swear by the LORD, the God of heaven, and the God of the earth, that thou shalt not take a wife unto my son of the daughters of the
Canaanites, among whom I dwell:
and I will have you
swear by the LORD, the God of heaven and the God of earth, that you will not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the
Canaanites among whom I am dwelling,
The LORD God of heaven, which took me from my father’s house, and from the land of my kindred, and which spake unto me, and that
sware unto me, saying, Unto thy seed will I give this land; he shall send his angel before
thee, and thou shalt take a wife unto my son from thence.
The LORD, the God of heaven, who brought me from my father’s house and my native land, who spoke to me and promised me on oath, saying, ‘To your offspring I will give this land’—He will send His angel before you so that you can take a wife for my son from there.
And if the woman will not be willing to follow thee, then thou shalt be clear from this my oath: only bring not my son thither again.
And if the woman is unwilling to follow you, then you are released from this oath of mine. Only do not take my son back there.”
And he said, O LORD God of my master Abraham, I pray
thee, send me good speed this day, and
shew kindness unto my master Abraham.
“O LORD, God of my master Abraham,” he prayed, “please grant me success
today, and show kindness to my master Abraham.
And let it come to pass, that the
damsel to whom I shall say, Let down thy pitcher, I pray
thee, that I may drink; and she shall say, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: let the same be she that thou hast appointed for thy servant Isaac; and thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed kindness unto my master.
Now may it happen that the
girl to whom I say, ‘Please let down your
jar that I may drink,’ and who responds, ‘Drink, and I will water your camels as well’—let her be the one You have appointed for Your servant Isaac. By this I will know that You have shown kindness to my master.”
And the servant ran to meet her, and said, Let me, I pray thee, drink a little water of thy pitcher.
So the servant ran to meet her and said, “Please let me have a little water from your
jar.”
And said, Whose daughter art thou? tell me, I pray
thee: is there room in thy father’s house for us to
lodge in?
“Whose daughter are you?” he asked. “Please tell me, is there room in your father’s house for us to
spend the night?”
And he said unto me, The LORD, before whom I walk, will send his angel with
thee, and
prosper thy way; and thou shalt take a wife for my son of my kindred, and of my father’s house:
And he told me, ‘The LORD, before whom I have walked, will send His angel with you and make your journey a success, so that you may take a wife for my son from my kindred and from my father’s house.
Then shalt thou be clear from this my oath, when thou comest to my kindred; and if they give not thee one, thou shalt be clear from my oath.
And when you go to my kindred, if they refuse to give her to you, then you will be released from my oath.’
Behold, I stand by the well of water; and it shall come to pass, that when the virgin cometh forth to draw water, and I say to her, Give me, I pray thee, a little water of thy pitcher to drink;
Here I am, standing beside this spring. Now if a
maiden comes out to draw water and I say to her, ‘Please let me drink a little water from your
jar,’
And before I had done speaking in mine heart, behold,
Rebekah came forth with her pitcher on her shoulder; and she went down unto the well, and drew water: and I said unto her, Let me drink, I pray
thee.
And before I had finished praying in my heart, there was
Rebekah coming out with her
jar on her shoulder, and she went down to the spring and drew water. So I said to her, ‘Please give me a drink.’
Then
Laban and
Bethuel answered and said, The thing proceedeth from the LORD: we cannot speak unto
thee bad or good.
Laban and
Bethuel answered, “This is from the LORD; we have no choice in the matter.
Behold,
Rebekah is before
thee, take her, and go, and let her be thy master’s son’s wife, as the LORD hath spoken.
Rebekah is here before you. Take her and go, and let her become the wife of your master’s son, just as the LORD has decreed.”
And
Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray
thee, with that same red
pottage; for I am
faint: therefore was his name called
Edom.
He said to Jacob, “Let me eat some of that red
stew, for I am
famished.” (That is why he was also called
Edom.)
And the LORD appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of:
The LORD appeared to Isaac and said, “Do not go down to Egypt. Settle in the land where I tell you.
Sojourn in this land, and I will be with
thee, and will
bless thee; for unto
thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I
sware unto Abraham thy father;
Stay in this land as a foreigner, and I will be with you and
bless you. For I will give all these lands to you and your offspring, and I will
confirm the oath that I
swore to your father Abraham.
And the LORD appeared unto him the same night, and said, I am the God of Abraham thy father: fear not, for I am with
thee, and will
bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham’s sake.
and that night the LORD appeared to him and said, “I am the God of your father Abraham. Do not be afraid, for I am with you. I will
bless you and multiply your descendants for the sake of My servant Abraham.”
And they said, We saw certainly that the LORD was with
thee: and we said, Let there be now an oath
betwixt us, even
betwixt us and
thee, and let us make a covenant with
thee;
“We can plainly see that the LORD has been with you,” they replied. “We
recommend that there should now be an oath between us and you. Let us make a covenant with you
That thou
wilt do us no
hurt, as we have not touched
thee, and as we have done unto
thee nothing but good, and have sent
thee away in peace: thou art now the blessed of the LORD.
that you will not
harm us, just as we have not
harmed you but have done only good to you, sending you on your way in peace. And now you are blessed by the LORD.”
Now therefore take, I pray
thee, thy weapons, thy
quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and take me some
venison;
Take your weapons—your
quiver and bow—and go out into the field to
hunt some game for me.
And make me savoury meat, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may eat; that my soul may
bless thee before I die.
Then prepare a
tasty dish that I love and bring it to me to eat, so that I may
bless you before I die.”
Bring me
venison, and make me savoury meat, that I may eat, and
bless thee before the LORD before my death.
‘Bring me some game and prepare me a
tasty dish to eat, so that I may
bless you in the presence of the LORD before I die.’
Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command thee.
Now, my son,
listen to my voice and do exactly as I tell you.
And thou shalt bring it to thy father, that he may eat, and that he may
bless thee before his death.
Then take it to your father to eat, so that he may
bless you before he dies.”
And Jacob said unto his father, I am
Esau thy
firstborn; I have done according as thou badest me: arise, I pray
thee, sit and eat of my
venison, that thy soul may
bless me.
Jacob said to his father, “I am
Esau, your
firstborn. I have done as you told me. Please sit up and eat some of my game, so that you may
bless me.”
And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near, I pray
thee, that I may feel
thee, my son, whether thou be my very son
Esau or not.
Then Isaac said to Jacob, “Please come closer so I can touch you, my son. Are you really my son
Esau, or not?”
And he said, Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son’s
venison, that my soul may
bless thee. And he brought it near to him, and he did eat: and he brought him wine, and he
drank.
“Serve me,” said Isaac, “and let me eat some of my son’s game, so that I may
bless you.” Jacob brought it to him, and he
ate; then he brought him wine, and he
drank.
Therefore God give
thee of the
dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and
plenty of corn and wine:
May God give to you the
dew of heaven and the richness of the earth— an abundance of grain and new wine.
Let people serve
thee, and nations bow down to
thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother’s sons bow down to
thee:
cursed be every one that curseth
thee, and blessed be he that blesseth
thee.
May peoples serve you and nations bow down to you. May you be the master of your brothers, and may the sons of your mother bow down to you. May those who
curse you be
cursed, and those who
bless you be blessed.”
And Isaac answered and said unto
Esau, Behold, I have made him thy lord, and all his brethren have I given to him for servants; and with corn and wine have I sustained him: and what shall I do now unto
thee, my son?
But Isaac answered
Esau: “Look, I have made him your master and given him all his relatives as servants; I have sustained him with grain and new wine. What is left that I can do for you, my son?”
And these words of
Esau her elder son were told to
Rebekah: and she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said unto him, Behold, thy brother
Esau, as touching
thee,

Esau were relayed to
Rebekah, she sent for her younger son Jacob and told him, “Look, your brother
Esau is
consoling himself by
plotting to kill you.
Until thy brother’s anger turn away from
thee, and he
forget that which thou hast done to him: then I will send, and
fetch thee from thence: why should I be deprived also of you both in one day?

rage against you wanes and he forgets what you have done to him. Then I will send for you and bring you back from there. Why should I lose both of you in one day?”

aram, to the house of
Bethuel thy mother’s father; and take
thee a wife from thence of the daughters of
Laban thy mother’s brother.

aram, to the house of your mother’s father
Bethuel, and take a wife from among the daughters of
Laban, your mother’s brother.
