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.
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
Sarah said, God hath made me to
laugh, so that all that hear will
laugh with me.
Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast out this
bondwoman and her son: for the son of this
bondwoman shall not be heir
with my son, even
with Isaac.
and she said to Abraham, “
Expel the slave woman and her son, for the slave woman’s son will never share in the inheritance
with my son Isaac!”
And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and a
bottle of water, and gave it unto
Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and the child, and sent her away: and she departed, and
wandered in the wilderness of Beer-
sheba.
Early in the morning, Abraham got up, took bread and a skin of water, put them on
Hagar’s shoulders, and sent her away
with the boy. She left and
wandered in the Wilderness of
Beersheba.
And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water; and she went, and filled the
bottle with water, and gave the
lad drink.
Then God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. So she went and filled the skin with water and gave the boy a drink.
And God was
with the
lad; and he grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer.
And God was with the boy, and he grew up and settled in the wilderness and became a great archer.
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 Abraham rose up early in the morning, and
saddled his
ass, and took two of his young men
with him, and Isaac his son, and
clave the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him.
So Abraham got up early the next morning,
saddled his
donkey, and took along two of his servants and his son Isaac. He split the wood for a burnt offering and set out for the place God had designated.
And Abraham said unto his young men,
Abide ye here
with the
ass; and I and the
lad will go
yonder and worship, and come again to you,
“Stay here
with the
donkey,” Abraham told his servants. “The boy and I will go over there to worship, and then we will return to you.”
And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the
lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not
withheld thy son, thine only son from me.
“Do not lay a hand on the boy or do anything to him,” said the angel, “for now I know that you fear God, since you have not
withheld your only son from me.”
And said, By myself have I
sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not
withheld thy son, thine only son:
saying, “By Myself I have
sworn, declares the LORD, that because you have done this and have not
withheld your only son,
I am a stranger and a
sojourner with you: give me a possession of a buryingplace
with you, that I may
bury my dead out of my sight.
“I am a foreigner and an outsider among you. Give me a burial site among you so that I can
bury my dead.”
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.”
And he communed
with them, saying, If it be your mind that I should
bury my dead out of my sight; hear me, and intreat for me to Ephron the son of
Zohar,
“If you are willing for me to
bury my dead,” he said to them, “
listen to me, and approach Ephron son of
Zohar on my behalf
And Abraham
hearkened unto Ephron; and Abraham
weighed to Ephron the silver, which he had named in the
audience of the sons of
Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, current money
with the merchant.
Abraham agreed to Ephron’s terms and
weighed out for him the price he had named in the hearing of the
Hittites: four hundred shekels of silver, according to the standard of the merchants.
And the field of Ephron, which was in Machpelah, which was before
Mamre, the field, and the cave which was therein, and all the trees that were in the field, that were in all the borders round about, were made sure
So Ephron’s field at Machpelah near
Mamre, the cave that was in it, and all the trees
within the boundaries of the field were deeded over
And the servant took ten camels of the camels of his master, and departed; for all the goods of his master were in his hand: and he arose, and went to
Mesopotamia, unto the city of
Nahor.
Then the servant took ten of his master’s camels and departed
with all manner of good things from his master in hand. And he set out for
Nahor’s hometown in
Aram-naharaim.
And he made his camels to
kneel down
without the city by a well of water at the time of the evening, even the time that women go out to draw water.
As evening approached, he made the camels
kneel down near the well outside the town at the time when the women went out to draw water.
And it came to pass, before he had done speaking, that, behold,
Rebekah came out, who was born to
Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of
Nahor, Abraham’s brother,
with her pitcher upon her shoulder.
Before the servant had finished praying,
Rebekah came out
with her
jar on her shoulder. She was the daughter of
Bethuel son of Milcah, the wife of Abraham’s brother
Nahor.
And the
damsel was very fair to look upon, a virgin, neither had any man known her: and she went down to the well, and filled her pitcher, and came up.
Now the
girl was very beautiful, a virgin who had not had relations
with any man. She went down to the spring, filled her
jar, and came up again.
And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of my master Abraham, who hath not left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth: I being in the way, the LORD led me to the house of my master’s brethren.
saying, “Blessed be the LORD, the God of my master Abraham, who has not
withheld His kindness and faithfulness from my master. As for me, the LORD has led me on the journey to the house of my master’s relatives.”
And he said, Come in, thou blessed of the LORD; wherefore standest thou without? for I have prepared the house, and room for the camels.
“Come, you who are blessed by the LORD,” said
Laban. “Why are you standing out here? I have prepared the house and a place for the camels.”
And the man came into the house: and he
ungirded his camels, and gave straw and
provender for the camels, and water to wash his feet, and the men’s feet that were
with him.
So the man came to the house, and the camels were unloaded. Straw and feed were brought to the camels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of his companions.
And I said unto my master,
Peradventure the woman will not follow me.
Then I asked my master, ‘What if the woman will not come back with me?’
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.
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.’
And now if ye will deal kindly and truly with my master, tell me: and if not, tell me; that I may turn to the right hand, or to the left.
Now if you will show kindness and faithfulness to my master, tell me; but if not, let me know, so that I may go elsewhere.”
And they did eat and drink, he and the men that were
with him, and
tarried all night; and they rose up in the morning, and he said, Send me away unto my master.
Then he and the men
with him
ate and
drank and spent the night there. When they got up the next morning, he said, “Send me on my way to my master.”
And her brother and her mother said, Let the
damsel abide with us a few days, at the least ten; after that she shall go.
But her brother and mother said, “Let the
girl remain
with us ten days or so. After that, she may go.”
And they called
Rebekah, and said unto her,
Wilt thou go
with this man? And she said, I will go.
They called
Rebekah and asked her, “Will you go
with this man?” “I will go,” she replied.
And they sent away
Rebekah their sister, and her
nurse, and Abraham’s servant, and his men.
So they sent their sister
Rebekah on her way, along
with her
nurse and Abraham’s servant and his men.
The field which Abraham purchased of the sons of
Heth: there was Abraham buried, and
Sarah his wife.
This was the field that Abraham had bought from the
Hittites. Abraham was buried there
with his wife
Sarah.
And the children struggled together
within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to
enquire of the LORD.
But the children inside her struggled
with each other, and she said, “Why is this happening to me?” So
Rebekah went to inquire of the LORD,
And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy
womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy
bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.
and He declared to her: “Two nations are in your
womb, and two peoples from
within you will be separated; one people will be stronger than the other, and the older will serve the younger.”
And the first came out red, all over like an
hairy garment; and they called his name
Esau.
The first one came out red, covered
with hair like a fur coat; so they named him
Esau.
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.)
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 it came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that
Abimelech king of the Philistines looked out at a window, and saw, and, behold, Isaac was
sporting with Rebekah his wife.
When Isaac had been there a long time,
Abimelech king of the Philistines looked down from the window and was surprised to see Isaac
caressing his wife
Rebekah.
And
Abimelech said, What is this thou hast done unto us? one of the people might lightly have
lien with thy wife, and thou shouldest have brought
guiltiness upon us.
“What is this you have done to us?” asked
Abimelech. “One of the people could easily have
slept with your wife, and you would have brought guilt upon us.”
For all the wells which his father’s servants had
digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped them, and filled them
with earth.
So the Philistines took
dirt and stopped up all the wells that his father’s servants had
dug in the days of his father Abraham.
And the herdmen of
Gerar did
strive with Isaac’s herdmen, saying, The water is ours: and he called the name of the well Esek; because they
strove with him.
But the herdsmen of
Gerar quarreled
with Isaac’s herdsmen and said, “The water is ours!” So he named the well Esek, because they
contended with him.
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.”
Then
Abimelech went to him from
Gerar, and Ahuzzath one of his friends, and Phichol the chief captain of his army.
Later,
Abimelech came to Isaac from
Gerar,
with Ahuzzath his
adviser and Phicol the commander of his army.
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
And
Rebekah took goodly
raiment of her eldest son
Esau, which were
with her in the house, and put them upon Jacob her younger son:
And
Rebekah took the finest clothes in the house that belonged to her older son
Esau, and she put them on her younger son Jacob.
And when
Esau heard the words of his father, he
cried with a great and exceeding bitter cry, and said unto his father,
Bless me, even me also, O my father.
When
Esau heard his father’s words, he let out a loud and bitter cry and said to his father, “
Bless me too, O my father!”
And he said, Thy brother came
with subtilty, and hath taken away thy blessing.
But Isaac replied, “Your brother came
deceitfully and took your blessing.”
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
tarry with him a few days, until thy brother’s
fury turn away;
Stay
with him for a while, until your brother’s
fury subsides—
And give thee the blessing of Abraham, to thee, and to thy seed
with thee; that thou mayest
inherit the land wherein thou art a stranger, which God gave unto Abraham.
And may He give the blessing of Abraham to you and your descendants, so that you may possess the land where you dwell as a foreigner, the land God gave to Abraham.”
And he dreamed, and behold a
ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it.
And Jacob had a dream about a
ladder that rested on the earth
with its top reaching up to heaven, and God’s angels were going up and down the
ladder.
And, behold, I am
with thee, and will keep thee in all places
whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of.
Look, I am with you, and I will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. For I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.”
And Jacob
vowed a
vow, saying, If God will be
with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and
raiment to put on,
Then Jacob made a
vow, saying, “If God will be
with me and watch over me on this journey, and if He will provide me
with food to eat and clothes to wear,
And he said unto them, Is he well? And they said, He is well: and, behold,
Rachel his daughter cometh
with the sheep.
“Is he well?” Jacob inquired. “
Yes,” they answered, “and here comes his daughter
Rachel with his sheep.”
And while he yet spake
with them,
Rachel came
with her father’s sheep: for she kept them.
While he was still speaking
with them,
Rachel arrived
with her father’s sheep, for she was a
shepherdess.
And it came to pass, when Jacob saw
Rachel the daughter of
Laban his mother’s brother, and the sheep of
Laban his mother’s brother, that Jacob went near, and rolled the stone from the well’s mouth, and watered the flock of
Laban his mother’s brother.
As soon as Jacob saw
Rachel, the daughter of his mother’s brother
Laban,
with Laban’s sheep, he went up and rolled the stone away from the mouth of the well and watered his uncle’s sheep.
And
Laban said to him, Surely thou art my bone and my flesh. And he abode
with him the space of a month.
Then
Laban declared, “You are indeed my own flesh and blood.” After Jacob had stayed
with him a month,
And
Laban said, It is better that I give her to thee, than that I should give her to another man:
abide with me.
Laban replied, “Better that I give her to you than to another. Stay here
with me.”
And Jacob said unto
Laban, Give me my wife, for my days are fulfilled, that I may go in unto her.
Finally Jacob said to
Laban, “Grant me my wife, for my time is complete, and I want to sleep
with her.”
And it came to pass in the evening, that he took Leah his daughter, and brought her to him; and he went in unto her.
But when evening came,
Laban took his daughter Leah and gave her to Jacob, and he
slept with her.
And it came to pass, that in the morning, behold, it was Leah: and he said to
Laban, What is this thou hast done unto me? did not I serve
with thee for
Rachel? wherefore then hast thou
beguiled me?
When morning came, there was Leah! “What have you done to me?” Jacob said to
Laban. “Wasn’t it for
Rachel that I served you? Why have you
deceived me?”
Fulfil her week, and we will give thee this also for the service which thou shalt serve with me yet seven other years.
Finish this week’s
celebration, and we will give you the younger one in return for another seven years of work.”
And he went in also unto
Rachel, and he loved also
Rachel more than Leah, and served
with him yet seven other years.
Jacob
slept with Rachel as well, and indeed, he loved
Rachel more than Leah. So he worked for
Laban another seven years.
Jacob became
angry with Rachel and said, “Am I in the place of God, who has
withheld children from you?”
And she said, Behold my
maid Bilhah, go in unto her; and she shall bear upon my knees that I may also have children by her.
Then she said, “Here is my
maidservant Bilhah. Sleep
with her, that she may bear children for me, so that through her I too can build a family.”
And she gave him
Bilhah her
handmaid to wife: and Jacob went in unto her.
And
Rachel said,
With great wrestlings have I
wrestled with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called his name
Naphtali.
And she said unto her, Is it a small matter that thou hast taken my husband? and wouldest thou take away my son’s mandrakes also? And
Rachel said, Therefore he shall lie
with thee to night for thy son’s mandrakes.
But Leah replied, “Is it not enough that you have taken away my husband? Now you want to take my son’s mandrakes as well?” “Very well,” said
Rachel, “he may sleep
with you
tonight in exchange for your son’s mandrakes.”
And Jacob came out of the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him, and said, Thou must come in unto me; for surely I have
hired thee
with my son’s mandrakes. And he lay
with her that night.
When Jacob came in from the field that evening, Leah went out to meet him and said, “You must come
with me, for I have
hired you
with my son’s mandrakes.” So he
slept with her that night.
And Leah said, God hath
endued me
with a good
dowry; now will my husband dwell
with me, because I have born him six sons: and she called his name
Zebulun.
“God has given me a good gift,” she said. “This time my husband will honor me, because I have borne him six sons.” And she named him
Zebulun.
And he said unto him, Thou knowest how I have served thee, and how thy cattle was with me.
Then Jacob answered, “You know how I have served you and how your
livestock have
thrived under my care.
So shall my righteousness answer for me in time to come, when it shall come for my
hire before thy face: every one that is not
speckled and
spotted among the goats, and brown among the sheep, that shall be counted
stolen with me.
So my
honesty will
testify for me when you come to check on my wages in the future. If I have any goats that are not
speckled or
spotted, or any lambs that are not dark-colored, they will be considered
stolen.”
And Jacob did separate the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the
ringstraked, and all the brown in the flock of
Laban; and he put his own flocks by themselves, and put them not unto
Laban’s cattle.
Jacob set apart the young, but made the rest face the
streaked dark-colored sheep in
Laban’s flocks. Then he set his own stock apart and did not put them
with Laban’s animals.
And the LORD said unto Jacob, Return unto the land of thy fathers, and to thy kindred; and I will be with thee.
Then the LORD said to Jacob, “Go back to the land of your fathers and to your kindred, and I will be with you.”
And said unto them, I see your father’s countenance, that it is not toward me as before; but the God of my father hath been with me.
and he told them, “I can see from your father’s countenance that his attitude toward me has changed; but the God of my father has been with me.
And ye know that with all my power I have served your father.
You know that I have served your father with all my strength.
And it came to pass at the time that the cattle conceived, that I lifted up mine eyes, and saw in a dream, and, behold, the rams which
leaped upon the cattle were
ringstraked,
speckled, and
grisled.
When the flocks were breeding, I saw in a dream that the
streaked,
spotted, and
speckled males were mating
with the females.
‘Look up,’ he said, ‘and see that all the males that are mating
with the flock are
streaked,
spotted, or
speckled; for I have seen all that
Laban has done to you.
And he carried away all his cattle, and all his goods which he had
gotten, the cattle of his getting, which he had
gotten in Padan-
aram, for to go to Isaac his father in the land of
Canaan.
and he drove all his
livestock before him, along
with all the possessions he had acquired in Paddan-
aram, to go to his father Isaac in the land in
Canaan.
So he fled
with all that he had; and he rose up, and passed over the river, and set his face toward the mount
Gilead.
So he fled
with all his possessions, crossed the Euphrates, and headed for the hill country of
Gilead.
And he took his brethren
with him, and pursued after him seven days’ journey; and they overtook him in the mount
Gilead.
So he took his relatives
with him, pursued Jacob for seven days, and overtook him in the hill country of
Gilead.
Then
Laban overtook Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mount: and
Laban with his brethren pitched in the mount of
Gilead.
Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the hill country of
Gilead when
Laban overtook him, and
Laban and his relatives camped there as well.
And
Laban said to Jacob, What hast thou done, that thou hast
stolen away unawares to me, and carried away my daughters, as
captives taken
with the sword?
Then
Laban said to Jacob, “What have you done? You have
deceived me and carried off my daughters like
captives of war!
Wherefore
didst thou
flee away secretly, and
steal away from me; and
didst not tell me, that I might have sent thee away
with mirth, and
with songs,
with tabret, and
with harp?
Why did you run away secretly and
deceive me,
without even telling me? I would have sent you away
with joy and singing,
with tambourines and harps.
With whomsoever thou findest thy gods, let him not live: before our brethren
discern thou what is thine
with me, and take it to thee. For Jacob knew not that
Rachel had
stolen them.
If you find your gods
with anyone here, he shall not live! In the presence of our relatives, see for
yourself if anything is yours, and take it back.” For Jacob did not know that
Rachel had
stolen the idols.
And Jacob was
wroth, and
chode with Laban: and Jacob answered and said to
Laban, What is my
trespass? what is my sin, that thou hast so hotly pursued after me?
Then Jacob became incensed and
challenged Laban. “What is my crime?” he said. “For what sin of mine have you so hotly pursued me?
This twenty years have I been with thee; thy ewes and thy she goats have not cast their young, and the rams of thy flock have I not eaten.
I have been with you for twenty years now. Your sheep and goats have not miscarried, nor have I eaten the rams of your flock.
Except the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had been
with me, surely thou hadst sent me away now empty. God hath seen mine
affliction and the labour of my hands, and
rebuked thee
yesternight.
If the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the Fear of Isaac, had not been
with me, surely by now you would have sent me away empty-handed. But God has seen my
affliction and the
toil of my hands, and last night He rendered judgment.”
If thou shalt
afflict my daughters, or if thou shalt take other wives beside my daughters, no man is
with us; see, God is witness
betwixt me and thee.
If you mistreat my daughters or take other wives, although no one is with us, remember that God is a witness between you and me.”
And he commanded them, saying, Thus shall ye speak unto my lord
Esau; Thy servant Jacob saith thus, I have
sojourned with Laban, and stayed there until now:
He
instructed them, “You are to say to my master
Esau, ‘Your servant Jacob says: I have been staying
with Laban and have remained there until now.
And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, We came to thy brother
Esau, and also he cometh to meet thee, and four hundred men
with him.
When the messengers returned to Jacob, they said, “We went to your brother
Esau, and now he is coming to meet you—he and four hundred men
with him.”
Then Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed: and he divided the people that was with him, and the flocks, and herds, and the camels, into two bands;
In great fear and distress, Jacob divided his people into two camps, as well as the flocks and herds and camels.
And Jacob said, O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, the LORD which saidst unto me, Return unto thy country, and to thy kindred, and I will deal well with thee:
Then Jacob declared, “O God of my father Abraham, God of my father Isaac, the LORD who told me, ‘Go back to your country and to your kindred, and I will make you
prosper,’
I am not worthy of the least of all the
mercies, and of all the truth, which thou hast shewed unto thy servant; for
with my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I am become two bands.
I am unworthy of all the kindness and faithfulness You have shown Your servant. Indeed, with only my staff I came across the Jordan, but now I have become two camps.
Deliver me, I pray thee, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of
Esau: for I fear him, lest he will come and
smite me, and the mother
with the children.
Please deliver me from the hand of my brother
Esau, for I am afraid that he may come and attack me and the mothers and children
with me.
And he
lodged there that same night; and took of that which came to his hand a present for
Esau his brother;
Jacob spent the night there, and from what he had brought
with him, he selected a gift for his brother
Esau:
Thirty
milch camels
with their colts, forty
kine, and ten bulls, twenty she
asses, and ten foals.
30 milk camels
with their young, 40 cows, 10 bulls, 20 female
donkeys, and 10 male
donkeys.
And say ye moreover, Behold, thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will
appease him
