Gen 01:01 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.





  • Gen 01:02 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness

  • [was] upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon

  • the face of the waters.



  • Gen 01:03 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.



  • Gen 01:04 And God saw the light, that [it was] good: and God
  • divided

  • the light from the darkness.



  • Gen 01:05 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he
  • called

  • Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.



  • Gen 01:06 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of
  • the

  • waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.



  • Gen 01:07 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters
  • which

  • [were] under the firmament from the waters which [were] above the

  • firmament: and it was so.



  • Gen 01:08 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening
  • and

  • the morning were the second day.



  • Gen 01:09 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be
  • gathered

  • together unto one place, and let the dry [land] appear: and it
  • was

  • so.



  • Gen 01:10 And God called the dry [land] Earth; and the gathering

  • together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that [it was]

  • good.



  • Gen 01:11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb

  • yielding seed, [and] the fruit tree yielding fruit after his
  • kind,

  • whose seed [is] in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.



  • Gen 01:12 And the earth brought forth grass, [and] herb yielding

  • seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed
  • [was]

  • in itself, after his kind: and God saw that [it was] good.



  • Gen 01:13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.



  • Gen 01:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of
  • the

  • heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for
  • signs,

  • and for seasons, and for days, and years:



  • Gen 01:15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the
  • heaven

  • to give light upon the earth: and it was so.



  • Gen 01:16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to
  • rule

  • the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: [he made] the
  • stars

  • also.



  • Gen 01:17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give

  • light upon the earth,



  • Gen 01:18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to
  • divide

  • the light from the darkness: and God saw that [it was] good.



  • Gen 01:19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.



  • Gen 01:20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the

  • moving creature that hath life, and fowl [that] may fly above the

  • earth in the open firmament of heaven.



  • Gen 01:21 And God created great whales, and every living creature

  • that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after
  • their

  • kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that [it

  • was] good.



  • Gen 01:22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and
  • multiply,

  • and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the
  • earth.



  • Gen 01:23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.



  • Gen 01:24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living

  • creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of

  • the earth after his kind: and it was so.



  • Gen 01:25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and

  • cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the

  • earth after his kind: and God saw that [it was] good.



  • Gen 01:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our

  • likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea,
  • and

  • over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the

  • earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the
  • earth.



  • Gen 01:27 So God created man in his [own] image, in the image of
  • God

  • created he him; male and female created he them.



  • Gen 01:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be
  • fruitful,

  • and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have

  • dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air,
  • and

  • over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.



  • Gen 01:29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb
  • bearing

  • seed, which [is] upon the face of all the earth, and every tree,
  • in

  • the which [is] the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it
  • shall be

  • for meat.



  • Gen 01:30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of
  • the

  • air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein
  • [there

  • is] life, [I have given] every green herb for meat: and it was
  • so.



  • Gen 01:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold,
  • [it

  • was] very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth
  • day.



  • Gen 02:01 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all
  • the

  • host of them.



  • Gen 02:02 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had

  • made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he

  • had made.



  • Gen 02:03 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it:

  • because that in it he had rested from all his work which God
  • created

  • and made.



  • Gen 02:04 These [are] the generations of the heavens and of the

  • earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made
  • the

  • earth and the heavens,



  • Gen 02:05 And every plant of the field before it was in the
  • earth,

  • and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had
  • not

  • caused it to rain upon the earth, and [there was] not a man to
  • till

  • the ground.



  • Gen 02:06 But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered
  • the

  • whole face of the ground.



  • Gen 02:07 And the LORD God formed man [of] the dust of the
  • ground,

  • and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man
  • became a

  • living soul.



  • Gen 02:08 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and

  • there he put the man whom he had formed.



  • Gen 02:09 And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every
  • tree

  • that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of
  • life

  • also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of
  • good

  • and evil.



  • Gen 02:10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and
  • from

  • thence it was parted, and became into four heads.



  • Gen 02:11 The name of the first [is] Pison: that [is] it which

  • compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where [there is] gold;



  • Gen 02:12 And the gold of that land [is] good: there [is]
  • bdellium

  • and the onyx stone.



  • Gen 02:13 And the name of the second river [is] Gihon: the same
  • [is]

  • it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia.



  • Gen 02:14 And the name of the third river [is] Hiddekel: that
  • [is]

  • it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river
  • [is]

  • Euphrates.



  • Gen 02:15 And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the
  • garden

  • of Eden to dress it and to keep it.



  • Gen 02:16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every
  • tree

  • of the garden thou mayest freely eat:



  • Gen 02:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou

  • shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou

  • shalt surely die.



  • Gen 02:18 And the LORD God said, [It is] not good that the man

  • should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.



  • Gen 02:19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast
  • of

  • the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought [them] unto
  • Adam

  • to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every

  • living creature, that [was] the name thereof.



  • Gen 02:20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of
  • the

  • air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not

  • found an help meet for him.



  • Gen 02:21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam,

  • and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the
  • flesh

  • instead thereof;



  • Gen 02:22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man,
  • made

  • he a woman, and brought her unto the man.



  • Gen 02:23 And Adam said, This [is] now bone of my bones, and
  • flesh

  • of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken
  • out of

  • Man.



  • Gen 02:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother,
  • and

  • shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.



  • Gen 02:25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and
  • were

  • not ashamed.



  • Gen 03:01 Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the

  • field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman,
  • Yea,

  • hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?



  • Gen 03:02 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the

  • fruit of the trees of the garden:



  • Gen 03:03 But of the fruit of the tree which [is] in the midst of

  • the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall
  • ye

  • touch it, lest ye die.



  • Gen 03:04 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not
  • surely

  • die:



  • Gen 03:05 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then

  • your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good
  • and

  • evil.



  • Gen 03:06 And when the woman saw that the tree [was] good for
  • food,

  • and that it [was] pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired
  • to

  • make [one] wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and

  • gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.



  • Gen 03:07 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew
  • that

  • they [were] naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made

  • themselves aprons.



  • Gen 03:08 And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the

  • garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid
  • themselves

  • from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the
  • garden.



  • Gen 03:09 And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him,

  • Where [art] thou?



  • Gen 03:10 And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was

  • afraid, because I [was] naked; and I hid myself.



  • Gen 03:11 And he said, Who told thee that thou [wast] naked? Hast

  • thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou
  • shouldest

  • not eat?



  • Gen 03:12 And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest [to be]
  • with

  • me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.



  • Gen 03:13 And the LORD God said unto the woman, What [is] this

  • [that] thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled
  • me,

  • and I did eat.



  • Gen 03:14 And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou
  • hast

  • done this, thou [art] cursed above all cattle, and above every
  • beast

  • of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou
  • eat

  • all the days of thy life:



  • Gen 03:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and

  • between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou

  • shalt bruise his heel.



  • Gen 03:16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy
  • sorrow

  • and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children;
  • and

  • thy desire [shall be] to thy husband, and he shall rule over
  • thee.



  • Gen 03:17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast 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: cursed [is] the

  • ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat [of] it all the
  • days

  • of thy life;



  • Gen 03:18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee;
  • and

  • thou shalt eat the herb of the field;



  • Gen 03:19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till
  • thou

  • return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust
  • thou

  • [art], and unto dust shalt thou return.



  • Gen 03:20 And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was
  • the

  • mother of all living.



  • Gen 03:21 Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make
  • coats

  • of skins, and clothed them.



  • Gen 03:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as
  • one of

  • us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand,
  • and

  • take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:



  • Gen 03:23 Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden
  • of

  • Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.



  • Gen 03:24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of
  • the

  • garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every

  • way, to keep the way of the tree of life.



  • Gen 04:01 And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare

  • Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD.



  • Gen 04:02 And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a
  • keeper

  • of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.



  • Gen 04:03 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain
  • brought

  • of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.



  • Gen 04:04 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his
  • flock

  • and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to

  • his offering:



  • Gen 04:05 But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect.
  • And

  • Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.



  • Gen 04:06 And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and
  • why

  • is thy countenance fallen?



  • Gen 04:07 If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if

  • thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee [shall
  • be]

  • his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.



  • Gen 04:08 And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to

  • pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel

  • his brother, and slew him.



  • Gen 04:09 And the LORD said unto Cain, Where [is] Abel thy
  • brother?

  • And he said, I know not: [Am] I my brother's keeper?



  • Gen 04:10 And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy

  • brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground.



  • Gen 04:11 And now [art] thou cursed from the earth, which hath

  • opened her mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand;



  • Gen 04:12 When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth

  • yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt
  • thou

  • be in the earth.



  • Gen 04:13 And Cain said unto the LORD, My punishment [is] greater

  • than I can bear.



  • Gen 04:14 Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face
  • of

  • the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a

  • fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass,

  • [that] every one that findeth me shall slay me.



  • Gen 04:15 And the LORD said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth

  • Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD
  • set a

  • mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him.



  • Gen 04:16 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and
  • dwelt

  • in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.

  • Enoch:

  • and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the

  • name of his son, Enoch.



  • Gen 04:18 And unto Enoch was born Irad: and Irad begat Mehujael:
  • and

  • Mehujael begat Methusael: and Methusael begat Lamech.



  • Gen 04:19 And Lamech took unto him two wives: the name of the one

  • [was] Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.



  • Gen 04:20 And Adah bare Jabal: he was the father of such as
  • dwell in

  • tents, and [of such as have] cattle.



  • Gen 04:21 And his brother's name [was] Jubal: he was the father
  • of

  • all such as handle the harp and organ.



  • Gen 04:22 And Zillah, she also bare Tubalcain, an instructor of

  • every artificer in brass and iron: and the sister of Tubalcain
  • [was]

  • Naamah.



  • Gen 04:23 And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear
  • my

  • voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have
  • slain

  • a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.



  • Gen 04:24 If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech
  • seventy

  • and sevenfold.



  • Gen 04:25 And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and

  • called his name Seth: For God, [said she], hath appointed me
  • another

  • seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.



  • Gen 04:26 And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he

  • called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the

  • LORD.



  • Gen 05:01 This [is] the book of the generations of Adam. In the
  • day

  • that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;



  • Gen 05:02 Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and

  • called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.

  • made them.



  • Gen 06:08 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.

  • Gen 06:11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth

  • in

  • the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.



  • Gen 06:15 And this [is the fashion] which thou shalt make it
  • [of]:

  • The length of the ark [shall be] three hundred cubits, the
  • breadth

  • of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.



  • Gen 06:16 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit

  • thou

  • make it.



  • Gen 06:17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon

  • shalt

  • come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy
  • sons'

  • wives with thee.



  • Gen 06:19 And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every

  • [sort] shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep [them] alive with

  • thee; they shall be male and female.



  • Gen 06:20 Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their
  • kind,

  • of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every

  • [sort] shall come unto thee, to keep [them] alive.



  • Gen 06:21 And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and

  • thou shalt gather [it] to thee; and it shall be for food for
  • thee,

  • and for them.



  • Gen 06:22 Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him,
  • so

  • did he.



  • Gen 07:01 And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy
  • house

  • into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this

  • generation.



  • Gen 07:02 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens,

  • the male and his female: and of beasts that [are] not clean by
  • two,

  • the male and his female.



  • Gen 07:03 Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the

  • female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.



  • Gen 07:04 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon
  • the

  • earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance
  • that I

  • have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.



  • Gen 07:05 And Noah did according unto all that the LORD commanded

  • him.



  • Gen 07:06 And Noah [was] six hundred years old when the flood of

  • waters was upon the earth.



  • Gen 07:07 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his

  • sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the

  • flood.



  • Gen 07:08 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that [are] not clean,
  • and

  • of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,



  • Gen 07:09 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the
  • male

  • and the female, as God had commanded Noah.



  • Gen 07:10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters
  • of

  • the flood were upon the earth.



  • Gen 07:11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second

  • month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all
  • the

  • fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven

  • were opened.



  • Gen 07:12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty

  • nights.



  • Gen 07:13 In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham,
  • and

  • Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives
  • of

  • his sons with them, into the ark;



  • Gen 07:14 They, and every beast after his kind, and all the
  • cattle

  • after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the

  • earth after his kind, and every fowl after his kind, every bird
  • of

  • every sort.



  • Gen 07:15 And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of

  • all flesh, wherein [is] the breath of life.



  • Gen 07:16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all

  • flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.



  • Gen 07:17 And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the

  • waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above
  • the

  • earth.



  • Gen 07:18 And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly
  • upon

  • the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters.



  • Gen 07:19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth;
  • and

  • all the high hills, that [were] under the whole heaven, were

  • covered.



  • Gen 07:20 Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the

  • mountains were covered.



  • Gen 07:21 And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of

  • fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing
  • that

  • creepeth upon the earth, and every man:



  • Gen 07:22 All in whose nostrils [was] the breath of life, of all

  • that [was] in the dry [land], died.



  • Gen 07:23 And every living substance was destroyed which was upon

  • the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping

  • things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from
  • the

  • earth: and Noah only remained [alive], and they that [were] with
  • him

  • in the ark.



  • Gen 07:24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and

  • fifty days.



  • Gen 08:01 And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and
  • all

  • the cattle that [was] with him in the ark: and God made a wind to

  • pass over the earth, and the waters asswaged;



  • Gen 08:02 The fountains also of the deep and the windows of
  • heaven

  • were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained;



  • Gen 08:03 And the waters returned from off the earth continually:

  • and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were

  • abated.



  • Gen 08:04 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the

  • seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.



  • Gen 08:05 And the waters decreased continually until the tenth

  • month: in the tenth [month], on the first [day] of the month,
  • were

  • the tops of the mountains seen.



  • Gen 08:06 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah

  • opened the window of the ark which he had made:



  • Gen 08:07 And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro,

  • until the waters were dried up from off the earth.



  • Gen 08:08 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the
  • waters

  • were abated from off the face of the ground;



  • Gen 08:09 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot,
  • and

  • she returned unto him into the ark, for the waters [were] on the

  • face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and took
  • her,

  • and pulled her in unto him into the ark.



  • Gen 08:10 And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent

  • forth the dove out of the ark;



  • Gen 08:11 And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in

  • her mouth [was] an olive leaf plucked off: so Noah knew that the

  • waters were abated from off the earth.



  • Gen 08:12 And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the

  • dove; which returned not again unto him any more.



  • Gen 08:13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first
  • year,

  • in the first [month], the first [day] of the month, the waters
  • were

  • dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the

  • ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry.



  • Gen 08:14 And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth
  • day of

  • the month, was the earth dried.



  • Gen 08:15 And God spake unto Noah, saying,



  • Gen 08:16 Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons,
  • and

  • thy sons' wives with thee.



  • Gen 08:17 Bring forth with thee every living thing that [is] with

  • thee, of all flesh, [both] of fowl, and of cattle, and of every

  • creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth; that they may breed

  • abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the

  • earth.



  • Gen 08:18 And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and
  • his

  • sons' wives with him:



  • Gen 08:19 Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl,
  • [and]

  • whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their kinds, went forth

  • out of the ark.



  • Gen 08:20 And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of
  • every

  • clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt
  • offerings on

  • the altar.



  • Gen 08:21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said
  • in

  • his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's

  • sake; for the imagination of man's heart [is] evil from his
  • youth;

  • neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have

  • done.



  • Gen 08:22 While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and
  • cold

  • and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not
  • cease.



  • Gen 09:01 And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them,
  • Be

  • fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.



  • Gen 09:02 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon

  • every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon
  • all

  • that moveth [upon] the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea;

  • into your hand are they delivered.



  • Gen 09:03 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you;
  • even

  • as the green herb have I given you all things.



  • Gen 09:04 But flesh with the life thereof, [which is] the blood

  • thereof, shall ye not eat.



  • Gen 09:05 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at
  • the

  • hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at

  • the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man.



  • Gen 09:06 Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be

  • shed: for in the image of God made he man.



  • Gen 09:07 And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply; bring forth

  • abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein.



  • Gen 09:08 And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him,
  • saying,

  • Gen 09:09 And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and
  • with

  • your seed after you;



  • Gen 09:10 And with every living creature that [is] with you, of
  • the

  • fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you;
  • from

  • all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth.



  • Gen 09:11 And I will establish my covenant with you; neither
  • shall

  • all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither

  • shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.



  • Gen 09:12 And God said, This [is] the token of the covenant
  • which I

  • make between me and you and every living creature that [is] with

  • you, for perpetual generations:



  • Gen 09:13 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a
  • token

  • of a covenant between me and the earth.



  • Gen 09:14 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over
  • the

  • earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:



  • Gen 09:15 And I will remember my covenant, which [is] between me
  • and

  • you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall
  • no

  • more become a flood to destroy all flesh.



  • Gen 09:16 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon

  • it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and

  • every living creature of all flesh that [is] upon the earth.



  • Gen 09:17 And God said unto Noah, This [is] the token of the

  • covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that

  • [is] upon the earth.



  • Gen 09:18 And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were

  • Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham [is] the father of Canaan.



  • Gen 09:19 These [are] the three sons of Noah: and of them was the

  • whole earth overspread.



  • Gen 09:20 And Noah began [to be] an husbandman, and he planted a

  • vineyard:



  • Gen 09:21 And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was

  • uncovered within his tent.



  • Gen 09:22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his

  • father, and told his two brethren without.



  • Gen 09:23 And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid [it] upon

  • both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the
  • nakedness

  • of their father; and their faces [were] backward, and they saw
  • not

  • their father's nakedness.



  • Gen 09:24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger

  • son had done unto him.



  • Gen 09:25 And he said, Cursed [be] Canaan; a servant of servants

  • shall he be unto his brethren.



  • Gen 09:26 And he said, Blessed [be] the LORD God of Shem; and
  • Canaan

  • shall be his servant.



  • Gen 09:27 God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the
  • tents

  • of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.



  • Gen 09:28 And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty

  • years.



  • Gen 09:29 And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty

  • years: and he died.



  • Gen 10:01 Now these [are] the generations of the sons of Noah,
  • Shem,

  • Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood.



  • Gen 10:02 The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and

  • Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.



  • Gen 10:03 And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and

  • Togarmah.



  • Gen 10:04 And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim,
  • and

  • Dodanim.



  • Gen 10:05 By these were the isles of the Gentiles divided in
  • their

  • lands; every one after his tongue, after their families, in their

  • nations.



  • Gen 10:06 And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and

  • Canaan.



  • Gen 10:07 And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah,
  • and

  • Raamah, and Sabtechah: and the sons of Raamah; Sheba, and Dedan.



  • Gen 10:08 And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in
  • the

  • earth.



  • Gen 10:09 He was a mighty hunter before the LORD: wherefore it is

  • said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD.



  • Gen 10:10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech,
  • and

  • Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.



  • Gen 10:11 Out of that land went forth Asshur, and builded
  • Nineveh,

  • and the city Rehoboth, and Calah,



  • Gen 10:12 And Resen between Nineveh and Calah: the same [is] a
  • great

  • city.



  • Gen 10:13 And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and

  • Naphtuhim,



  • Gen 10:14 And Pathrusim, and Casluhim, (out of whom came
  • Philistim,)

  • and Caphtorim.



  • Gen 10:15 And Canaan begat Sidon his firstborn, and Heth,



  • Gen 10:16 And the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgasite,



  • Gen 10:17 And the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite,



  • Gen 10:18 And the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite:
  • and

  • afterward were the families of the Canaanites spread abroad.



  • Gen 10:19 And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as
  • thou

  • comest to Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest, unto Sodom, and
  • Gomorrah,

  • and Admah, and Zeboim, even unto Lasha.



  • Gen 10:20 These [are] the sons of Ham, after their families,
  • after

  • their tongues, in their countries, [and] in their nations.



  • Gen 10:21 Unto Shem also, the father of all the children of Eber,

  • the brother of Japheth the elder, even to him were [children]
  • born.



  • Gen 10:22 The children of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad,
  • and

  • Lud, and Aram.



  • Gen 10:23 And the children of Aram; Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and

  • Mash.



  • Gen 10:24 And Arphaxad begat Salah; and Salah begat Eber.



  • Gen 10:25 And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one [was]

  • Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's
  • name

  • [was] Joktan.



  • Gen 10:26 And Joktan begat Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth,

  • and Jerah,



  • Gen 10:27 And Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,



  • Gen 10:28 And Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba,



  • Gen 10:29 And Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab: all these [were] the

  • sons of Joktan.



  • Gen 10:30 And their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou goest unto

  • Sephar a mount of the east.



  • Gen 10:31 These [are] the sons of Shem, after their families,
  • after

  • their tongues, in their lands, after their nations.



  • Gen 10:32 These [are] the families of the sons of Noah, after
  • their

  • generations, in their nations: and by these were the nations
  • divided

  • in the earth after the flood.



  • Gen 11:01 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one

  • speech.



  • Gen 11:02 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east,
  • that

  • they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.



  • Gen 11:03 And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick,

  • and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime

  • had they for mortar.



  • Gen 11:04 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a
  • tower,

  • whose top [may reach] unto heaven; and let us make us a name,
  • lest

  • we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.



  • Gen 11:05 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower,

  • which the children of men builded.



  • Gen 11:06 And the LORD said, Behold, the people [is] one, and
  • they

  • have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing

  • will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.



  • Gen 11:07 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their
  • language,

  • that they may not understand one another's speech.



  • Gen 11:08 So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the

  • face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.



  • Gen 11:09 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the
  • LORD

  • did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence

  • did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.



  • Gen 11:10 These [are] the generations of Shem: Shem [was] an
  • hundred

  • years old, and begat Arphaxad two years after the flood:



  • Gen 11:11 And Shem lived after he begat Arphaxad five hundred
  • years,

  • and begat sons and daughters.



  • Gen 11:12 And Arphaxad lived five and thirty years, and begat
  • Salah:



  • Gen 11:13 And Arphaxad lived after he begat Salah four hundred
  • and

  • three years, and begat sons and daughters.



  • Gen 11:14 And Salah lived thirty years, and begat Eber:



  • Gen 11:15 And Salah lived after he begat Eber four hundred and
  • three

  • years, and begat sons and daughters.



  • Gen 11:16 And Eber lived four and thirty years, and begat Peleg:



  • Gen 11:17 And Eber lived after he begat Peleg four hundred and

  • thirty years, and begat sons and daughters.



  • Gen 11:18 And Peleg lived thirty years, and begat Reu:



  • Gen 11:19 And Peleg lived after he begat Reu two hundred and nine

  • years, and begat sons and daughters.



  • Gen 11:20 And Reu lived two and thirty years, and begat Serug:



  • Gen 11:21 And Reu lived after he begat Serug two hundred and
  • seven

  • years, and begat sons and daughters.



  • Gen 11:22 And Serug lived thirty years, and begat Nahor:



  • Gen 11:23 And Serug lived after he begat Nahor two hundred years,

  • and begat sons and daughters.



  • Gen 11:24 And Nahor lived nine and twenty years, and begat Terah:



  • Gen 11:25 And Nahor lived after he begat Terah an hundred and

  • nineteen years, and begat sons and daughters.



  • Gen 11:26 And Terah lived seventy years, and begat Abram, Nahor,
  • and

  • Haran.



  • Gen 11:27 Now these [are] the generations of Terah: Terah begat

  • Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran begat Lot.



  • Gen 11:28 And Haran died before his father Terah in the land of
  • his

  • nativity, in Ur of the Chaldees.



  • Gen 11:29 And Abram and Nahor took them wives: the name of
  • Abram's

  • wife [was] Sarai; and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah, the
  • daughter

  • of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of Iscah.



  • Gen 11:30 But Sarai was barren; she [had] no child.



  • Gen 11:31 And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran
  • his

  • son's son, and Sarai his daughter in law, his son Abram's wife;
  • and

  • they went forth with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the

  • land of Canaan; and they came unto Haran, and dwelt there.



  • Gen 11:32 And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years:
  • and

  • Terah died in Haran.



  • Gen 12:01 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy

  • country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto
  • a

  • land that I will show thee:



  • Gen 12:02 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:



  • Gen 12:03 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him
  • that

  • curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be

  • blessed.



  • Gen 12:04 So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and

  • Lot went with him: and Abram [was] seventy and five years old
  • when

  • he departed out of Haran.



  • Gen 12:05 And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's
  • son,

  • and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls
  • that

  • they had gotten in Haran; and they went forth to go into the
  • land of

  • Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.



  • Gen 12:06 And Abram passed through the land unto the place of

  • Sichem, unto the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite [was] then in
  • the

  • land.



  • Gen 12:07 And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy
  • seed

  • will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the
  • LORD,

  • who appeared unto him.



  • Gen 12:08 And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east
  • of

  • Bethel, and pitched his tent, [having] Bethel on the west, and
  • Hai

  • on the east: and there he builded an altar unto the LORD, and
  • called

  • upon the name of the LORD.



  • Gen 12:09 And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the south.



  • Gen 12:10 And there was a famine in the land: and Abram went down

  • into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine [was] grievous in the

  • land.



  • Gen 12:11 And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter
  • into

  • Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that

  • thou [art] a fair woman to look upon:



  • Gen 12:12 Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Egyptians
  • shall

  • see thee, that they shall say, This [is] his wife: and they will

  • kill me, but they will save thee alive.



  • Gen 12:13 Say, I pray thee, thou [art] my sister: that it may be

  • well with me for thy sake; and my soul shall live because of
  • thee.



  • Gen 12:14 And it came to pass, that, when Abram was come into
  • Egypt,

  • the Egyptians beheld the woman that she [was] very fair.



  • Gen 12:15 The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her

  • before Pharaoh: and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.



  • Gen 12:16 And he entreated Abram well for her sake: and he had

  • sheep, and oxen, and he asses, and menservants, and maidservants,

  • and she asses, and camels.



  • Gen 12:17 And the LORD plagued Pharaoh and his house with great

  • plagues because of Sarai Abram's wife.



  • Gen 12:18 And Pharaoh called Abram, and said, What [is] this
  • [that]

  • thou hast done unto me? why didst thou not tell me that she [was]

  • thy wife?



  • Gen 12:19 Why saidst thou, She [is] my sister? so I might have
  • taken

  • her to me to wife: now therefore behold thy wife, take [her],
  • and go

  • thy way.



  • Gen 12:20 And Pharaoh commanded [his] men concerning him: and
  • they

  • sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had.



  • Gen 13:01 And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and
  • all

  • that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.



  • Gen 13:02 And Abram [was] very rich in cattle, in silver, and in

  • gold.



  • Gen 13:03 And he went on his journeys from the south even to
  • Bethel,

  • unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between

  • Bethel and Hai;



  • Gen 13:04 Unto the place of the altar, which he had made there at

  • the first: and there Abram called on the name of the LORD.



  • Gen 13:05 And Lot also, which went with Abram, had flocks, and

  • herds, and tents.



  • Gen 13:06 And the land was not able to bear them, that they might

  • dwell together: for their substance was great, so that they could

  • not dwell together.



  • Gen 13:07 And there was a strife between the herdmen of Abram's

  • cattle and the herdmen of Lot's cattle: and the Canaanite and the

  • Perizzite dwelled then in the land.



  • Gen 13:08 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.



  • Gen 13:09 [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.



  • Gen 13:10 And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of

  • Jordan, that it [was] well watered every where, before the LORD

  • destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, [even] as the garden of the LORD,
  • like

  • the land of Egypt, as thou comest unto Zoar.



  • Gen 13:11 Then Lot chose him all the plain of Jordan; and Lot

  • journeyed east: and they separated themselves the one from the

  • other.



  • Gen 13:12 Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in

  • the cities of the plain, and pitched [his] tent toward Sodom.



  • Gen 13:13 But the men of Sodom [were] wicked and sinners before
  • the

  • LORD exceedingly.



  • Gen 13:14 And the LORD said unto Abram, after that Lot was
  • separated

  • from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where
  • thou

  • art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward:



  • Gen 13:15 For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give
  • it,

  • and to thy seed for ever.



  • Gen 13:16 And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: so
  • that

  • if a man can number the dust of the earth, [then] shall thy seed

  • also be numbered.



  • Gen 13:17 Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in

  • the breadth of it; for I will give it unto thee.



  • Gen 13:18 Then Abram removed [his] tent, and came and dwelt in
  • the

  • plain of Mamre, which [is] in Hebron, and built there an altar
  • unto

  • the LORD.



  • Gen 14:01 And it came to pass in the days of Amraphel king of

  • Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and
  • Tidal

  • king of nations;



  • Gen 14:02 [That these] made war with Bera king of Sodom, and with

  • Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, and Shemeber king
  • of

  • Zeboiim, and the king of Bela, which is Zoar.



  • Gen 14:03 All these were joined together in the vale of Siddim,

  • which is the salt sea.



  • Gen 14:04 Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer, and in the

  • thirteenth year they rebelled.



  • Gen 14:05 And in the fourteenth year came Chedorlaomer, and the

  • kings that [were] with him, and smote the Rephaims in Ashteroth

  • Karnaim, and the Zuzims in Ham, and the Emims in Shaveh
  • Kiriathaim,



  • Gen 14:06 And the Horites in their mount Seir, unto Elparan,
  • which

  • [is] by the wilderness.



  • Gen 14:07 And they returned, and came to Enmishpat, which [is]

  • Kadesh, and smote all the country of the Amalekites, and also the

  • Amorites, that dwelt in Hazezontamar.



  • Gen 14:08 And there went out the king of Sodom, and the king of

  • Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboiim, and the

  • king of Bela (the same [is] Zoar;) and they joined battle with
  • them

  • in the vale of Siddim;



  • Gen 14:09 With Chedorlaomer the king of Elam, and with Tidal
  • king of

  • nations, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar;

  • four kings with five.



  • Gen 14:10 And the vale of Siddim [was full of] slimepits; and the

  • kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there; and they that

  • remained fled to the mountain.



  • Gen 14:11 And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and
  • all

  • their victuals, and went their way.



  • Gen 14:12 And they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who dwelt in

  • Sodom, and his goods, and departed.



  • Gen 14:13 And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the

  • Hebrew; for he dwelt in the plain of Mamre the Amorite, brother
  • of

  • Eshcol, and brother of Aner: and these [were] confederate with

  • Abram.



  • Gen 14:14 And when Abram heard that his brother was taken
  • captive,

  • he armed his trained [servants], born in his own house, three

  • hundred and eighteen, and pursued [them] unto Dan.



  • Gen 14:15 And he divided himself against them, he and his
  • servants,

  • by night, and smote them, and pursued them unto Hobah, which
  • [is] on

  • the left hand of Damascus.



  • Gen 14:16 And he brought back all the goods, and also brought
  • again

  • his brother Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and the
  • people.



  • Gen 14:17 And the king of Sodom went out to meet him after his

  • return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings that

  • [were] with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which [is] the king's

  • dale.



  • Gen 14:18 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and

  • wine: and he [was] the priest of the most high God.



  • Gen 14:19 And he blessed him, and said, Blessed [be] Abram of the

  • most high God, possessor of heaven and earth:



  • Gen 14:20 And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered

  • thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.



  • Gen 14:21 And the king of Sodom said unto Abram, Give me the

  • persons, and take the goods to thyself.



  • Gen 14:22 And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up
  • mine

  • hand unto the LORD, the most high God, the possessor of heaven
  • and

  • earth,



  • Gen 14:23 That I will not [take] from a thread even to a

  • shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that [is] thine,

  • lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich:



  • Gen 14:24 Save only that which the young men have eaten, and the

  • portion of the men which went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre;
  • let

  • them take their portion.



  • Gen 15:01 After these things the word of the LORD came unto
  • Abram in

  • a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I [am] thy shield, [and] thy

  • exceeding great reward.



  • Gen 15:02 And Abram said, Lord GOD, what wilt thou give me,
  • seeing I

  • go childless, and the steward of my house [is] this Eliezer of

  • Damascus?



  • Gen 15:03 And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed:

  • and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir.



  • Gen 15:04 And, behold, the word of the LORD [came] unto him,
  • saying,

  • This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of

  • thine own bowels shall be thine heir.



  • Gen 15:05 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now
  • toward

  • heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and
  • he

  • said unto him, So shall thy seed be.



  • Gen 15:06 And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him
  • for

  • righteousness.



  • Gen 15:07 And he said unto him, I [am] the LORD that brought thee

  • out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.



  • Gen 15:08 And he said, Lord GOD, whereby shall I know that I
  • shall

  • inherit it?



  • Gen 15:09 And he said unto him, Take me an heifer of three years

  • old, and a she goat of three years old, and a ram of three years

  • old, and a turtledove, and a young pigeon.



  • Gen 15:10 And he took unto him all these, and divided them in the

  • midst, and laid each piece one against another: but the birds

  • divided he not.



  • Gen 15:11 And when the fowls came down upon the carcases, Abram

  • drove them away.



  • Gen 15:12 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon

  • Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.



  • Gen 15:13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed

  • shall be a stranger in a land [that is] not theirs, and shall
  • serve

  • them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;



  • Gen 15:14 And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I
  • judge:

  • and afterward shall they come out with great substance.



  • Gen 15:15 And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt
  • be

  • buried in a good old age.



  • Gen 15:16 But in the fourth generation they shall come hither
  • again:

  • for the iniquity of the Amorites [is] not yet full.



  • Gen 15:17 And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and
  • it

  • was dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that
  • passed

  • between those pieces.



  • Gen 15:18 In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram,

  • saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of

  • Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:



  • Gen 15:19 The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites,



  • Gen 15:20 And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims,



  • Gen 15:21 And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the
  • Girgashites,

  • and the Jebusites.



  • Gen 16:01 Now Sarai Abram's wife bare him no children: and she
  • had

  • an handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name [was] Hagar.



  • Gen 16:02 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.



  • Gen 16:03 And Sarai Abram's wife took Hagar her maid the
  • Egyptian,

  • after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave
  • her

  • to her husband Abram to be his wife.



  • Gen 16:04 And he went in unto Hagar, and she conceived: and when
  • she

  • saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her
  • eyes.



  • Gen 16:05 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.



  • Gen 16:06 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.



  • Gen 16:07 And the angel of the LORD found her by a fountain of
  • water

  • in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur.



  • Gen 16:08 And he said, Hagar, Sarai's maid, whence camest thou?
  • and

  • whither wilt thou go? And she said, I flee from the face of my

  • mistress Sarai.



  • Gen 16:09 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Return to thy

  • mistress, and submit thyself under her hands.



  • Gen 16:10 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, I will
  • multiply

  • thy seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for
  • multitude.



  • Gen 16:11 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou

  • [art] with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name

  • Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction.



  • Gen 16:12 And he will be a wild man; his hand [will be] against

  • every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell
  • in

  • the presence of all his brethren.



  • Gen 16:13 And she called the name of the LORD that spake unto
  • her,

  • Thou God seest me: for she said, Have I also here looked after
  • him

  • that seeth me?



  • Gen 16:14 Wherefore the well was called Beerlahairoi; behold, [it

  • is] between Kadesh and Bered.



  • Gen 16:15 And Hagar bare Abram a son: and Abram called his son's

  • name, which Hagar bare, Ishmael.



  • Gen 16:16 And Abram [was] fourscore and six years old, when Hagar

  • bare Ishmael to Abram.



  • Gen 17:01 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD

  • appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I [am] the Almighty God;
  • walk

  • before me, and be thou perfect.



  • Gen 17:02 And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and
  • will

  • multiply thee exceedingly.



  • Gen 17:03 And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him,

  • saying,



  • Gen 17:04 As for me, behold, my covenant [is] with thee, and thou

  • shalt be a father of many nations.



  • Gen 17:05 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.



  • Gen 17:06 And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will
  • make

  • nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.



  • Gen 17:07 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.



  • Gen 17:08 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.



  • Gen 17:09 And God said unto Abraham, Thou shalt keep my covenant

  • therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee in their generations.



  • Gen 17:10 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.



  • Gen 17:11 And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin;
  • and it

  • shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you.



  • Gen 17:12 And he that is eight days old shall be circumcised
  • among

  • you, every man child in your generations, he that is born in the

  • house, or bought with money of any stranger, which [is] not of
  • thy

  • seed.



  • Gen 17:13 He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought
  • with

  • thy money, must needs be circumcised: and my covenant shall be in

  • your flesh for an everlasting covenant.



  • Gen 17:14 And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his

  • foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his

  • people; he hath broken my covenant.



  • Gen 17:15 And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou

  • shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah [shall] her name [be].



  • Gen 17:16 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.



  • Gen 17:17 Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said
  • in

  • his heart, Shall [a child] be born unto him that is an hundred
  • years

  • old? and shall Sarah, that is ninety years old, bear?



  • Gen 17:18 And Abraham said unto God, O that Ishmael might live

  • before thee!



  • Gen 17:19 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.



  • Gen 17:20 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.



  • Gen 17:21 But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which
  • Sarah

  • shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year.



  • Gen 17:22 And he left off talking with him, and God went up from

  • Abraham.



  • Gen 17:23 And Abraham took Ishmael his son, and all that were
  • born

  • in his house, and all that were bought with his money, every male

  • among the men of Abraham's house; and circumcised the flesh of
  • their

  • foreskin in the selfsame day, as God had said unto him.



  • Gen 17:24 And Abraham [was] ninety years old and nine, when he
  • was

  • circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.



  • Gen 17:25 And Ishmael his son [was] thirteen years old, when he
  • was

  • circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.



  • Gen 17:26 In the selfsame day was Abraham circumcised, and
  • Ishmael

  • his son.



  • Gen 17:27 And all the men of his house, born in the house, and

  • bought with money of the stranger, were circumcised with him.



  • Gen 18:01 And the LORD appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre:
  • and

  • he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day;



  • Gen 18:02 And he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men

  • stood by him: and when he saw [them], he ran to meet them from
  • the

  • tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground,



  • Gen 18:03 And said, My Lord, if now I have found favour in thy

  • sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant: Gen 18:04
  • Let a

  • little water, I pray you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and
  • rest

  • yourselves under the tree:



  • Gen 18:05 And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your

  • hearts; after that ye shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to

  • your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said.



  • Gen 18:06 And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and
  • said,

  • Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead [it], and
  • make

  • cakes upon the hearth.



  • Gen 18:07 And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetched a calf
  • tender

  • and good, and gave [it] unto a young man; and he hasted to dress
  • it.



  • Gen 18:08 And he took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had

  • dressed, and set [it] before them; and he stood by them under the

  • tree, and they did eat.



  • Gen 18:09 And they said unto him, Where [is] Sarah thy wife? And
  • he

  • said, Behold, in the tent.



  • Gen 18:10 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.



  • Gen 18:11 Now Abraham and Sarah [were] old [and] well stricken in

  • age; [and] it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.



  • Gen 18:12 Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After
  • I am

  • waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?



  • Gen 18:13 And the LORD said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah
  • laugh,

  • saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old?



  • Gen 18:14 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.



  • Gen 18:15 Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was

  • afraid. And he said, Nay; but thou didst laugh.



  • Gen 18:16 And the men rose up from thence, and looked toward
  • Sodom:

  • and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way.



  • Gen 18:17 And the LORD said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing

  • which I do;



  • Gen 18:18 Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and
  • mighty

  • nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?



  • Gen 18:19 For I know him, that he will command his children and
  • his

  • household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to
  • do

  • justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that

  • which he hath spoken of him.



  • Gen 18:20 And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and
  • Gomorrah

  • is great, and because their sin is very grievous;



  • Gen 18:21 I will go down now, and see whether they have done

  • altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me;
  • and if

  • not, I will know.



  • Gen 18:22 And the men turned their faces from thence, and went

  • toward Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before the LORD.



  • Gen 18:23 And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy

  • the righteous with the wicked?



  • Gen 18:24 Peradventure there be fifty righteous within the city:

  • wilt thou also destroy and not spare the place for the fifty

  • righteous that [are] therein?



  • Gen 18:25 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?



  • Gen 18:26 And the LORD said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous

  • within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes.



  • Gen 18:27 And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I have taken

  • upon me to speak unto the Lord, which [am but] dust and ashes:



  • Gen 18:28 Peradventure there shall lack five of the fifty
  • righteous:

  • wilt thou destroy all the city for [lack of] five? And he said,
  • If I

  • find there forty and five, I will not destroy [it].



  • Gen 18:29 And he spake unto him yet again, and said, Peradventure

  • there shall be forty found there. And he said, I will not do [it]

  • for forty's sake.



  • Gen 18:30 And he said [unto him], Oh let not the Lord be angry,
  • and

  • I will speak: Peradventure there shall thirty be found there.
  • And he

  • said, I will not do [it], if I find thirty there.



  • Gen 18:31 And he said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak

  • unto the Lord: Peradventure there shall be twenty found there.
  • And

  • he said, I will not destroy [it] for twenty's sake.



  • Gen 18:32 And he said, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will

  • speak yet but this once: Peradventure ten shall be found there.
  • And

  • he said, I will not destroy [it] for ten's sake.



  • Gen 18:33 And the LORD went his way, as soon as he had left

  • communing with Abraham: and Abraham returned unto his place.



  • Gen 19:01 And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot
  • sat in

  • the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing [them] rose up to meet them;
  • and

  • he bowed himself with his face toward the ground;



  • Gen 19:02 And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you,

  • into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your
  • feet,

  • and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said,
  • Nay;

  • but we will abide in the street all night.



  • Gen 19:03 And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in
  • unto

  • him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and
  • did

  • bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.



  • Gen 19:04 But before they lay down, the men of the city, [even]
  • the

  • men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all
  • the

  • people from every quarter:



  • Gen 19:05 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.



  • Gen 19:06 And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the
  • door

  • after him,



  • Gen 19:07 And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.



  • Gen 19:08 Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known
  • man;

  • let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as

  • [is] good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for

  • therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.



  • Gen 19:09 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.



  • Gen 19:10 But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into
  • the

  • house to them, and shut to the door.



  • Gen 19:11 And they smote the men that [were] at the door of the

  • house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied

  • themselves to find the door.



  • Gen 19:12 And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides?
  • son

  • in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou
  • hast in

  • the city, bring [them] out of this place:



  • Gen 19:13 For we will destroy this place, because the cry of
  • them is

  • waxen great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD hath sent
  • us

  • to destroy it.



  • Gen 19:14 And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons in law, which

  • married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place;
  • for

  • the LORD will destroy this city. But he seemed as one that mocked

  • unto his sons in law.



  • Gen 19:15 And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened
  • Lot,

  • saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are
  • here;

  • lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.



  • Gen 19:16 And while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand,

  • and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two

  • daughters; the LORD being merciful unto him: and they brought him

  • forth, and set him without the city.



  • Gen 19:17 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.



  • Gen 19:18 And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my Lord:



  • Gen 19:19 Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight,
  • and

  • thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast showed unto me in

  • saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some
  • evil

  • take me, and I die:



  • Gen 19:20 Behold now, this city [is] near to flee unto, and it
  • [is]

  • a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, ([is] it not a little
  • one?)

  • and my soul shall live.



  • Gen 19:21 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.



  • Gen 19:22 Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do any thing
  • till

  • thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called

  • Zoar.



  • Gen 19:23 The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into

  • Zoar.



  • Gen 19:24 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah

  • brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;



  • Gen 19:25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and
  • all

  • the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the
  • ground.



  • Gen 19:26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she
  • became a

  • pillar of salt.



  • Gen 19:27 And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place
  • where

  • he stood before the LORD:



  • Gen 19:28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all

  • the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the
  • country

  • went up as the smoke of a furnace.



  • Gen 19:29 And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of
  • the

  • plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the
  • midst of

  • the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot
  • dwelt.



  • Gen 19:30 And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain,

  • and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar:
  • and

  • he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.



  • Gen 19:31 And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father
  • [is]

  • old, and [there is] not a man in the earth to come in unto us
  • after

  • the manner of all the earth:



  • Gen 19:32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will
  • lie

  • with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.



  • Gen 19:33 And they made their father drink wine that night: and
  • the

  • firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not

  • when she lay down, nor when she arose.



  • Gen 19:34 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn
  • said

  • unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father: let
  • us

  • make him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, [and] lie
  • with

  • him, that we may preserve seed of our father.



  • Gen 19:35 And they made their father drink wine that night also:
  • and

  • the younger arose, and lay with him; and he perceived not when
  • she

  • lay down, nor when she arose.



  • Gen 19:36 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their

  • father.



  • Gen 19:37 And the firstborn bare a son, and called his name Moab:

  • the same [is] the father of the Moabites unto this day.



  • Gen 19:38 And the younger, she also bare a son, and called his
  • name

  • Benammi: the same [is] the father of the children of Ammon unto
  • this

  • day.



  • Gen 20:01 And Abraham journeyed from thence toward the south

  • country, and dwelled between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourned in

  • Gerar.



  • Gen 20:02 And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She [is] my sister:

  • and Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.



  • Gen 20:03 But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and
  • said to

  • him, Behold, thou [art but] a dead man, for the woman which thou

  • hast taken; for she [is] a man's wife.



  • Gen 20:04 But Abimelech had not come near her: and he said, Lord,

  • wilt thou slay also a righteous nation?



  • Gen 20:05 Said he not unto me, She [is] my sister? and she, even
  • she

  • herself said, He [is] my brother: in the integrity of my heart
  • and

  • innocency of my hands have I done this.



  • Gen 20:06 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.



  • Gen 20:07 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.



  • Gen 20:08 Therefore Abimelech rose early in the morning, and
  • called

  • all his servants, and told all these things in their ears: and
  • the

  • men were sore afraid.



  • Gen 20:09 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.



  • Gen 20:10 And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What sawest thou, that

  • thou hast done this thing?



  • Gen 20:11 And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely the fear of

  • God [is] not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife's

  • sake.



  • Gen 20:12 And yet indeed [she is] my sister; she [is] the
  • daughter

  • of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became
  • my

  • wife.



  • Gen 20:13 And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from
  • my

  • father's house, that I said unto her, This [is] thy kindness
  • which

  • thou shalt show unto me; at every place whither we shall come,
  • say

  • of me, He [is] my brother.



  • Gen 20:14 And Abimelech took sheep, and oxen, and menservants,
  • and

  • womenservants, and gave [them] unto Abraham, and restored him
  • Sarah

  • his wife.



  • Gen 20:15 And Abimelech said, Behold, my land [is] before thee:

  • dwell where it pleaseth thee.



  • Gen 20:16 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.



  • Gen 20:17 So Abraham prayed unto God: and God healed Abimelech,
  • and

  • his wife, and his maidservants; and they bare [children].



  • Gen 20:18 For the LORD had fast closed up all the wombs of the
  • house

  • of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham's wife.



  • Gen 21:01 And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD

  • did unto Sarah as he had spoken.



  • Gen 21:02 For Sarah conceived, and bare Abraham a son in his old

  • age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.



  • Gen 21:03 And Abraham called the name of his son that was born
  • unto

  • him, whom Sarah bare to him, Isaac.



  • Gen 21:04 And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac being eight days

  • old, as God had commanded him.



  • Gen 21:05 And Abraham was an hundred years old, when his son
  • Isaac

  • was born unto him.



  • Gen 21:06 And Sarah said, God hath made me to laugh, [so that]
  • all

  • that hear will laugh with me.



  • Gen 21:07 And she said, Who would have said unto Abraham, that
  • Sarah

  • should have given children suck? for I have born [him] a son in
  • his

  • old age.



  • Gen 21:08 And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a

  • great feast the [same] day that Isaac was weaned.



  • Gen 21:09 And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she
  • had

  • born unto Abraham, mocking.



  • Gen 21:10 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.



  • Gen 21:11 And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight
  • because

  • of his son.



  • Gen 21:12 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.



  • Gen 21:13 And also of the son of the bondwoman will I make a
  • nation,

  • because he [is] thy seed.



  • Gen 21:14 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 Beersheba.



  • Gen 21:15 And the water was spent in the bottle, and she cast the

  • child under one of the shrubs.



  • Gen 21:16 And she went, and sat her down over against [him] a
  • good

  • way off, as it were a bowshot: for she said, Let me not see the

  • death of the child. And she sat over against [him], and lift up
  • her

  • voice, and wept.



  • Gen 21:17 And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of
  • God

  • called to 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].



  • Gen 21:18 Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thine hand;
  • for I

  • will make him a great nation.



  • Gen 21:19 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.



  • Gen 21:20 And God was with the lad; and he grew, and dwelt in the

  • wilderness, and became an archer.



  • Gen 21:21 And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran: and his mother

  • took him a wife out of the land of Egypt.



  • Gen 21:22 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:



  • Gen 21:23 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.



  • Gen 21:24 And Abraham said, I will swear.



  • Gen 21:25 And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of a well of
  • water,

  • which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.



  • Gen 21:26 And Abimelech said, I wot not who hath done this thing:

  • neither didst thou tell me, neither yet heard I [of it], but to
  • day.



  • Gen 21:27 And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them unto

  • Abimelech; and both of them made a covenant.



  • Gen 21:28 And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by

  • themselves.



  • Gen 21:29 And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What [mean] these
  • seven

  • ewe lambs which thou hast set by themselves?



  • Gen 21:30 And he said, For [these] seven ewe lambs shalt thou
  • take

  • of my hand, that they may be a witness unto me, that I have
  • digged

  • this well.



  • Gen 21:31 Wherefore he called that place Beersheba; because there

  • they sware both of them.



  • Gen 21:32 Thus they made a covenant at Beersheba: then Abimelech

  • rose up, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, and they

  • returned into the land of the Philistines.



  • Gen 21:33 And [Abraham] planted a grove in Beersheba, and called

  • there on the name of the LORD, the everlasting God.



  • Gen 21:34 And Abraham sojourned in the Philistines' land many
  • days.



  • Gen 22:01 And it came to pass after these things, that God did
  • tempt

  • Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, [here]
  • I

  • [am].



  • Gen 22:02 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.



  • Gen 22:03 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.



  • Gen 22:04 Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and
  • saw

  • the place afar off.



  • Gen 22:05 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.



  • Gen 22:06 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and
  • laid

  • [it] upon Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a

  • knife; and they went both of them together.



  • Gen 22:07 And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My

  • father: and he said, Here [am] I, my son. And he said, Behold the

  • fire and the wood: but where [is] the lamb for a burnt offering?



  • Gen 22:08 And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a
  • lamb

  • for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.



  • Gen 22:09 And they came to the place which God had told him of;
  • and

  • Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and
  • bound

  • Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood.



  • Gen 22:10 And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the
  • knife

  • to slay his son.



  • Gen 22:11 And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of
  • heaven,

  • and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here [am] I.



  • Gen 22:12 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.



  • Gen 22:13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold

  • behind [him] a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham

  • went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in

  • the stead of his son.



  • Gen 22:14 And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh:
  • as

  • it is said [to] this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be
  • seen.



  • Gen 22:15 And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of

  • heaven the second time,



  • Gen 22:16 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]:



  • Gen 22:17 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;



  • Gen 22:18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be

  • blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.



  • Gen 22:19 So Abraham returned unto his young men, and they rose
  • up

  • and went together to Beersheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba.



  • Gen 22:20 And it came to pass after these things, that it was
  • told

  • Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she hath also born children unto

  • thy brother Nahor;



  • Gen 22:21 Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother, and Kemuel the

  • father of Aram,



  • Gen 22:22 And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and

  • Bethuel.



  • Gen 22:23 And Bethuel begat Rebekah: these eight Milcah did bear
  • to

  • Nahor, Abraham's brother.



  • Gen 22:24 And his concubine, whose name [was] Reumah, she bare
  • also

  • Tebah, and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah.



  • Gen 23:01 And Sarah was an hundred and seven and twenty years
  • old:

  • [these were] the years of the life of Sarah.



  • Gen 23:02 And Sarah died in Kirjatharba; the same [is] Hebron in
  • the

  • land of Canaan: and Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep
  • for

  • her.



  • Gen 23:03 And Abraham stood up from before his dead, and spake
  • unto

  • the sons of Heth, saying,



  • Gen 23:04 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.



  • Gen 23:05 And the children of Heth answered Abraham, saying unto

  • him,



  • Gen 23:06 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.



  • Gen 23:07 And Abraham stood up, and bowed himself to the people
  • of

  • the land, [even] to the children of Heth.



  • Gen 23:08 And he communed with them, saying, If it be your mind
  • that

  • I should bury my dead out of my sight; hear me, and entreat for
  • me

  • to Ephron the son of Zohar,



  • Gen 23:09 That he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he
  • hath,

  • which [is] in the end of his field; for as much money as it is
  • worth

  • he shall give it me for a possession of a buryingplace amongst
  • you.



  • Gen 23:10 And Ephron dwelt among the children of Heth: and Ephron

  • the Hittite answered Abraham in the audience of the children of

  • Heth, [even] of all that went in at the gate of his city, saying,



  • Gen 23:11 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.



  • Gen 23:12 And Abraham bowed down himself before the people of the

  • land.



  • Gen 23:13 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.



  • Gen 23:14 And Ephron answered Abraham, saying unto him,



  • Gen 23:15 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.



  • Gen 23:16 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.



  • Gen 23:17 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



  • Gen 23:18 Unto Abraham for a possession in the presence of the

  • children of Heth, before all that went in at the gate of his
  • city.



  • Gen 23:19 And after this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the
  • cave

  • of the field of Machpelah before Mamre: the same [is] Hebron in
  • the

  • land of Canaan.



  • Gen 23:20 And the field, and the cave that [is] therein, were
  • made

  • sure unto Abraham for a possession of a buryingplace by the sons
  • of

  • Heth.



  • Gen 24:01 And Abraham was old, [and] well stricken in age: and
  • the

  • LORD had blessed Abraham in all things.



  • Gen 24:02 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:



  • Gen 24:03 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:



  • Gen 24:04 But thou shalt go unto my country, and to my kindred,
  • and

  • take a wife unto my son Isaac.



  • Gen 24:05 And the servant said unto him, Peradventure the woman
  • will

  • not be willing to follow me unto this land: must I needs bring
  • thy

  • son again unto the land from whence thou camest?



  • Gen 24:06 And Abraham said unto him, Beware thou that thou bring
  • not

  • my son thither again.



  • Gen 24:07 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.



  • Gen 24:08 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.



  • Gen 24:09 And the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham

  • his master, and sware to him concerning that matter.



  • Gen 24:10 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.



  • Gen 24:11 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].



  • Gen 24:12 And he said, O LORD God of my master Abraham, I pray
  • thee,

  • send me good speed this day, and show kindness unto my master

  • Abraham.



  • Gen 24:13 Behold, I stand [here] by the well of water; and the

  • daughters of the men of the city come out to draw water:



  • Gen 24:14 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 showed kindness unto my
  • master.



  • Gen 24:15 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.



  • Gen 24:16 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.



  • Gen 24:17 And the servant ran to meet her, and said, Let me, I
  • pray

  • thee, drink a little water of thy pitcher.



  • Gen 24:18 And she said, Drink, my lord: and she hasted, and let
  • down

  • her pitcher upon her hand, and gave him drink.



  • Gen 24:19 And when she had done giving him drink, she said, I
  • will

  • draw [water] for thy camels also, until they have done drinking.



  • Gen 24:20 And she hasted, and emptied her pitcher into the
  • trough,

  • and ran again unto the well to draw [water], and drew for all his

  • camels.



  • Gen 24:21 And the man wondering at her held his peace, to wit

  • whether the LORD had made his journey prosperous or not.



  • Gen 24:22 And it came to pass, as the camels had done drinking,
  • that

  • the man took a golden earring of half a shekel weight, and two

  • bracelets for her hands of ten [shekels] weight of gold;



  • Gen 24:23 And said, Whose daughter [art] thou? tell me, I pray
  • thee:

  • is there room [in] thy father's house for us to lodge in?



  • Gen 24:24 And she said unto him, I [am] the daughter of Bethuel
  • the

  • son of Milcah, which she bare unto Nahor.



  • Gen 24:25 She said moreover unto him, We have both straw and

  • provender enough, and room to lodge in.



  • Gen 24:26 And the man bowed down his head, and worshipped the
  • LORD.



  • Gen 24:27 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.



  • Gen 24:28 And the damsel ran, and told [them of] her mother's
  • house

  • these things.



  • Gen 24:29 And Rebekah had a brother, and his name [was] Laban:
  • and

  • Laban ran out unto the man, unto the well.



  • Gen 24:30 And it came to pass, when he saw the earring and
  • bracelets

  • upon his sister's hands, and when he heard the words of Rebekah
  • his

  • sister, saying, Thus spake the man unto me; that he came unto the

  • man; and, behold, he stood by the camels at the well.



  • Gen 24:31 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.



  • Gen 24:32 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.



  • Gen 24:33 And there was set [meat] before him to eat: but he
  • said, I

  • will not eat, until I have told mine errand. And he said, Speak
  • on.



  • Gen 24:34 And he said, I [am] Abraham's servant.



  • Gen 24:35 And the LORD hath blessed my master greatly; and he is

  • become great: and he hath given him flocks, and herds, and
  • silver,

  • and gold, and menservants, and maidservants, and camels, and
  • asses.



  • Gen 24:36 And Sarah my master's wife bare a son to my master when

  • she was old: and unto him hath he given all that he hath.



  • Gen 24:37 And my master made me swear, saying, Thou shalt not
  • take a

  • wife to my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land
  • I

  • dwell:



  • Gen 24:38 But thou shalt go unto my father's house, and to my

  • kindred, and take a wife unto my son.



  • Gen 24:39 And I said unto my master, Peradventure the woman will
  • not

  • follow me.



  • Gen 24:40 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:



  • Gen 24:41 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.



  • Gen 24:42 And I came this day unto the well, and said, O LORD
  • God of

  • my master Abraham, if now thou do prosper my way which I go:



  • Gen 24:43 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;



  • Gen 24:44 And she say to me, Both drink thou, and I will also
  • draw

  • for thy camels: [let] the same [be] the woman whom the LORD hath

  • appointed out for my master's son.



  • Gen 24:45 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.



  • Gen 24:46 And she made haste, and let down her pitcher from her

  • [shoulder], and said, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink
  • also:

  • so I drank, and she made the camels drink also.



  • Gen 24:47 And I asked her, and said, Whose daughter [art] thou?
  • And

  • she said, The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor's son, whom Milcah bare

  • unto him: and I put the earring upon her face, and the bracelets

  • upon her hands.



  • Gen 24:48 And I bowed down my head, and worshipped the LORD, and

  • blessed the LORD God of my master Abraham, which had led me in
  • the

  • right way to take my master's brother's daughter unto his son.



  • Gen 24:49 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.



  • Gen 24:50 Then Laban and Bethuel answered and said, The thing

  • proceedeth from the LORD: we cannot speak unto thee bad or good.
  • Gen

  • 24:51 Behold, Rebekah [is] before thee, take [her], and go, and
  • let

  • her be thy master's son's wife, as the LORD hath spoken.



  • Gen 24:52 And it came to pass, that, when Abraham's servant heard

  • their words, he worshipped the LORD, [bowing himself] to the
  • earth.



  • Gen 24:53 And the servant brought forth jewels of silver, and
  • jewels

  • of gold, and raiment, and gave [them] to Rebekah: he gave also to

  • her brother and to her mother precious things.



  • Gen 24:54 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.



  • Gen 24:55 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.



  • Gen 24:56 And he said unto them, Hinder me not, seeing the LORD
  • hath

  • prospered my way; send me away that I may go to my master.



  • Gen 24:57 And they said, We will call the damsel, and inquire at
  • her

  • mouth.



  • Gen 24:58 And they called Rebekah, and said unto her, Wilt thou
  • go

  • with this man? And she said, I will go.



  • Gen 24:59 And they sent away Rebekah their sister, and her nurse,

  • and Abraham's servant, and his men.



  • Gen 24:60 And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto her, Thou [art]

  • our sister, be thou [the mother] of thousands of millions, and
  • let

  • thy seed possess the gate of those which hate them.



  • Gen 24:61 And Rebekah arose, and her damsels, and they rode upon
  • the

  • camels, and followed the man: and the servant took Rebekah, and
  • went

  • his way.



  • Gen 24:62 And Isaac came from the way of the well Lahairoi; for
  • he

  • dwelt in the south country.



  • Gen 24:63 And Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the

  • eventide: and he lifted up his eyes, and saw, and, behold, the

  • camels [were] coming.



  • Gen 24:64 And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac,

  • she lighted off the camel.



  • Gen 24:65 For she [had] said unto the servant, What man [is] this

  • that walketh in the field to meet us? And the servant [had] said,
  • It

  • [is] my master: therefore she took a veil, and covered herself.



  • Gen 24:66 And the servant told Isaac all things that he had done.



  • Gen 24:67 And Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah's tent, and

  • took Rebekah, and she became his wife; and he loved her: and
  • Isaac

  • was comforted after his mother's [death].



  • Gen 25:01 Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name [was]

  • Keturah.



  • Gen 25:02 And she bare him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and

  • Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.



  • Gen 25:03 And Jokshan begat Sheba, and Dedan. And the sons of
  • Dedan

  • were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.



  • Gen 25:04 And the sons of Midian; Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch,
  • and

  • Abidah, and Eldaah. All these [were] the children of Keturah.



  • Gen 25:05 And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac.



  • Gen 25:06 But unto the sons of the concubines, which Abraham had,

  • Abraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Isaac his son, while
  • he

  • yet lived, eastward, unto the east country.



  • Gen 25:07 And these [are] the days of the years of Abraham's life

  • which he lived, an hundred threescore and fifteen years.



  • Gen 25:08 Then Abraham gave up the ghost, and died in a good old

  • age, an old man, and full [of years]; and was gathered to his

  • people.



  • Gen 25:09 And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave
  • of

  • Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite,

  • which [is] before Mamre;



  • Gen 25:10 The field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth:

  • there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife.



  • Gen 25:11 And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that
  • God

  • blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac dwelt by the well Lahairoi.



  • Gen 25:12 Now these [are] the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's
  • son,

  • whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bare unto Abraham:



  • Gen 25:13 And these [are] the names of the sons of Ishmael, by
  • their

  • names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael,

  • Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,



  • Gen 25:14 And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,



  • Gen 25:15 Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:



  • Gen 25:16 These [are] the sons of Ishmael, and these [are] their

  • names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes

  • according to their nations.



  • Gen 25:17 And these [are] the years of the life of Ishmael, an

  • hundred and thirty and seven years: and he gave up the ghost and

  • died; and was gathered unto his people.



  • Gen 25:18 And they dwelt from Havilah unto Shur, that [is] before

  • Egypt, as thou goest toward Assyria: [and] he died in the
  • presence

  • of all his brethren.



  • Gen 25:19 And these [are] the generations of Isaac, Abraham's
  • son:

  • Abraham begat Isaac:



  • Gen 25:20 And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to

  • wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the
  • sister to

  • Laban the Syrian.



  • Gen 25:21 And Isaac entreated the LORD for his wife, because she

  • [was] barren: and the LORD was entreated of him, and Rebekah his

  • wife conceived.



  • Gen 25:22 And the children struggled together within her; and she

  • said, If [it be] so, why [am] I thus? And she went to inquire of
  • the

  • LORD.



  • Gen 25:23 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.



  • Gen 25:24 And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled,
  • behold,

  • [there were] twins in her womb.



  • Gen 25:25 And the first came out red, all over like an hairy

  • garment; and they called his name Esau.



  • Gen 25:26 And after that came his brother out, and his hand took

  • hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac
  • [was]

  • threescore years old when she bare them.



  • Gen 25:27 And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a
  • man of

  • the field; and Jacob [was] a plain man, dwelling in tents.



  • Gen 25:28 And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of [his]
  • venison:

  • but Rebekah loved Jacob.



  • Gen 25:29 And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field,
  • and

  • he [was] faint:



  • Gen 25:30 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.



  • Gen 25:31 And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright.



  • Gen 25:32 And Esau said, Behold, I [am] at the point to die: and

  • what profit shall this birthright do to me?



  • Gen 25:33 And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto

  • him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.



  • Gen 25:34 Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles;
  • and he

  • did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau
  • despised

  • [his] birthright.



  • Gen 26:01 And there was a famine in the land, beside the first

  • famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto

  • Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar.



  • Gen 26:02 And the LORD appeared unto him, and said, Go not down
  • into

  • Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of:



  • Gen 26:03 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;



  • Gen 26:04 And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of

  • heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in
  • thy

  • seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;



  • Gen 26:05 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my
  • charge,

  • my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.



  • Gen 26:06 And Isaac dwelt in Gerar:



  • Gen 26:07 And the men of the place asked [him] of his wife; and
  • he

  • said, She [is] my sister: for he feared to say, [She is] my wife;

  • lest, [said he], the men of the place should kill me for Rebekah;

  • because she [was] fair to look upon.



  • Gen 26:08 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.



  • Gen 26:09 And Abimelech called Isaac, and said, Behold, of a
  • surety

  • she [is] thy wife: and how saidst thou, She [is] my sister? And

  • Isaac said unto him, Because I said, Lest I die for her.



  • Gen 26:10 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.



  • Gen 26:11 And Abimelech charged all [his] people, saying, He that

  • toucheth this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.



  • Gen 26:12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same

  • year an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him.



  • Gen 26:13 And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew
  • until

  • he became very great:



  • Gen 26:14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of
  • herds,

  • and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him.



  • Gen 26:15 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.



  • Gen 26:16 And Abimelech said unto Isaac, Go from us; for thou art

  • much mightier than we.



  • Gen 26:17 And Isaac departed thence, and pitched his tent in the

  • valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.



  • Gen 26:18 And Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they
  • had

  • digged in the days of Abraham his father; for the Philistines had

  • stopped them after the death of Abraham: and he called their
  • names

  • after the names by which his father had called them.



  • Gen 26:19 And Isaac's servants digged in the valley, and found
  • there

  • a well of springing water.



  • Gen 26:20 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.



  • Gen 26:21 And they digged another well, and strove for that also:

  • and he called the name of it Sitnah.



  • Gen 26:22 And he removed from thence, and digged another well;
  • and

  • for that they strove not: and he called the name of it Rehoboth;
  • and

  • he said, For now the LORD hath made room for us, and we shall be

  • fruitful in the land.



  • Gen 26:23 And he went up from thence to Beersheba.



  • Gen 26:24 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.



  • Gen 26:25 And he builded an altar there, and called upon the
  • name of

  • the LORD, and pitched his tent there: and there Isaac's servants

  • digged a well.



  • Gen 26:26 Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath
  • one of

  • his friends, and Phichol the chief captain of his army.



  • Gen 26:27 And Isaac said unto them, Wherefore come ye to me,
  • seeing

  • ye hate me, and have sent me away from you?



  • Gen 26:28 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;



  • Gen 26:29 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.



  • Gen 26:30 And he made them a feast, and they did eat and drink.



  • Gen 26:31 And they rose up betimes in the morning, and sware one
  • to

  • another: and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in

  • peace.



  • Gen 26:32 And it came to pass the same day, that Isaac's servants

  • came, and told him concerning the well which they had digged, and

  • said unto him, We have found water.



  • Gen 26:33 And he called it Shebah: therefore the name of the city

  • [is] Beersheba unto this day.



  • Gen 26:34 And Esau was forty years old when he took to wife
  • Judith

  • the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath the daughter of

  • Elon the Hittite:



  • Gen 26:35 Which were a grief of mind unto Isaac and to Rebekah.



  • Gen 27:01 And it came to pass, that when Isaac was old, and his
  • eyes

  • were dim, so that he could not see, he called Esau his eldest
  • son,

  • and said unto him, My son: and he said unto him, Behold, [here
  • am]

  • I.



  • Gen 27:02 And he said, Behold now, I am old, I know not the day
  • of

  • my death:



  • Gen 27:03 Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy
  • quiver

  • and thy bow, and go out to the field, and take me [some] venison;



  • Gen 27:04 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.



  • Gen 27:05 And Rebekah heard when Isaac spake to Esau his son. And

  • Esau went to the field to hunt [for] venison, [and] to bring
  • [it].



  • Gen 27:06 And Rebekah spake unto Jacob her son, saying, Behold, I

  • heard thy father speak unto Esau thy brother, saying,



  • Gen 27:07 Bring me venison, and make me savoury meat, that I may

  • eat, and bless thee before the LORD before my death.



  • Gen 27:08 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that

  • which I command thee.



  • Gen 27:09 Go now to the flock, and fetch me from thence two good

  • kids of the goats; and I will make them savoury meat for thy
  • father,

  • such as he loveth:



  • Gen 27:10 And thou shalt bring [it] to thy father, that he may
  • eat,

  • and that he may bless thee before his death.



  • Gen 27:11 And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, Behold, Esau my

  • brother [is] a hairy man, and I [am] a smooth man:



  • Gen 27:12 My father peradventure will feel me, and I shall seem
  • to

  • him as a deceiver; and I shall bring a curse upon me, and not a

  • blessing.



  • Gen 27:13 And his mother said unto him, Upon me [be] thy curse,
  • my

  • son: only obey my voice, and go fetch me [them].



  • Gen 27:14 And he went, and fetched, and brought [them] to his

  • mother: and his mother made savoury meat, such as his father
  • loved.



  • Gen 27:15 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:



  • Gen 27:16 And she put the skins of the kids of the goats upon his

  • hands, and upon the smooth of his neck:



  • Gen 27:17 And she gave the savoury meat and the bread, which she
  • had

  • prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.



  • Gen 27:18 And he came unto his father, and said, My father: and
  • he

  • said, Here [am] I; who [art] thou, my son?



  • Gen 27:19 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.



  • Gen 27:20 And Isaac said unto his son, How [is it] that thou hast

  • found [it] so quickly, my son? And he said, Because the LORD thy
  • God

  • brought [it] to me.



  • Gen 27:21 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.



  • Gen 27:22 And Jacob went near unto Isaac his father; and he felt

  • him, and said, The voice [is] Jacob's voice, but the hands [are]
  • the

  • hands of Esau.



  • Gen 27:23 And he discerned him not, because his hands were hairy,
  • as

  • his brother Esau's hands: so he blessed him.



  • Gen 27:24 And he said, [Art] thou my very son Esau? And he said,
  • I

  • [am].



  • Gen 27:25 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.



  • Gen 27:26 And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, and

  • kiss me, my son.



  • Gen 27:27 And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the
  • smell

  • of his raiment, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my
  • son

  • [is] as the smell of a field which the LORD hath blessed:



  • Gen 27:28 Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the

  • fatness of the earth, and plenty of corn and wine:



  • Gen 27:29 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.



  • Gen 27:30 And it came to pass, as soon as Isaac had made an end
  • of

  • blessing Jacob, and Jacob was yet scarce gone out from the
  • presence

  • of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his
  • hunting.



  • Gen 27:31 And he also had made savoury meat, and brought it unto
  • his

  • father, and said unto his father, Let my father arise, and eat of

  • his son's venison, that thy soul may bless me.



  • Gen 27:32 And Isaac his father said unto him, Who [art] thou?
  • And he

  • said, I [am] thy son, thy firstborn Esau.



  • Gen 27:33 And Isaac trembled very exceedingly, and said, Who?
  • where

  • [is] he that hath taken venison, and brought [it] me, and I have

  • eaten of all before thou camest, and have blessed him? yea,
  • [and] he

  • shall be blessed.



  • Gen 27:34 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.



  • Gen 27:35 And he said, Thy brother came with subtlety, and hath

  • taken away thy blessing.



  • Gen 27:36 And he said, Is not he rightly named Jacob? for he hath

  • supplanted me these two times: he took away my birthright; and,

  • behold, now he hath taken away my blessing. And he said, Hast
  • thou

  • not reserved a blessing for me?



  • Gen 27:37 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?



  • Gen 27:38 And Esau said unto his father, Hast thou but one
  • blessing,

  • my father? bless me, [even] me also, O my father. And Esau
  • lifted up

  • his voice, and wept.



  • Gen 27:39 And Isaac his father answered and said unto him,
  • Behold,

  • thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of

  • heaven from above;



  • Gen 27:40 And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy

  • brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the

  • dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.



  • Gen 27:41 And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith
  • his

  • father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of
  • mourning

  • for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob.



  • Gen 27:42 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, doth
  • comfort

  • himself, [purposing] to kill thee.



  • Gen 27:43 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; and arise, flee
  • thou

  • to Laban my brother to Haran;



  • Gen 27:44 And tarry with him a few days, until thy brother's fury

  • turn away;



  • Gen 27:45 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?



  • Gen 27:46 And Rebekah said to Isaac, I am weary of my life
  • because

  • of the daughters of Heth: if Jacob take a wife of the daughters
  • of

  • Heth, such as these [which are] of the daughters of the land,
  • what

  • good shall my life do me?



  • Gen 28:01 And Isaac called Jacob, and blessed him, and charged
  • him,

  • and said unto him, Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of

  • Canaan.



  • Gen 28:02 Arise, go to Padanaram, 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.



  • Gen 28:03 And God Almighty bless thee, and make thee fruitful,
  • and

  • multiply thee, that thou mayest be a multitude of people;



  • Gen 28:04 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.



  • Gen 28:05 And Isaac sent away Jacob: and he went to Padanaram
  • unto

  • Laban, son of Bethuel the Syrian, the brother of Rebekah, Jacob's

  • and Esau's mother.



  • Gen 28:06 When Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob, and sent
  • him

  • away to Padanaram, to take him a wife from thence; and that as he

  • blessed him he gave him a charge, saying, Thou shalt not take a
  • wife

  • of the daughters of Canaan;



  • Gen 28:07 And that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother, and
  • was

  • gone to Padanaram;



  • Gen 28:08 And Esau seeing that the daughters of Canaan pleased
  • not

  • Isaac his father;



  • Gen 28:09 Then went Esau unto Ishmael, and took unto the wives
  • which

  • he had Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael Abraham's son, the
  • sister of

  • Nebajoth, to be his wife.



  • Gen 28:10 And Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward
  • Haran.



  • Gen 28:11 And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there
  • all

  • night, because the sun was set; and he took of the stones of that

  • place, and put [them for] his pillows, and lay down in that
  • place to

  • sleep.



  • Gen 28:12 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.



  • Gen 28:13 And, behold, the LORD stood above it, and said, I [am]
  • the

  • LORD God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land

  • whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed;



  • Gen 28:14 And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and
  • thou

  • shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the
  • north,

  • and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the
  • families

  • of the earth be blessed.



  • Gen 28:15 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.



  • Gen 28:16 And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely
  • the

  • LORD is in this place; and I knew [it] not.



  • Gen 28:17 And he was afraid, and said, How dreadful [is] this
  • place!

  • this [is] none other but the house of God, and this [is] the
  • gate of

  • heaven.



  • Gen 28:18 And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the
  • stone

  • that he had put [for] his pillows, and set it up [for] a pillar,
  • and

  • poured oil upon the top of it.



  • Gen 28:19 And he called the name of that place Bethel: but the
  • name

  • of that city [was called] Luz at the first.



  • Gen 28:20 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,



  • Gen 28:21 So that I come again to my father's house in peace;
  • then

  • shall the LORD be my God:



  • Gen 28:22 And this stone, which I have set [for] a pillar, shall
  • be

  • God's house: and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely
  • give

  • the tenth unto thee.



  • Gen 29:01 Then Jacob went on his journey, and came into the land
  • of

  • the people of the east.



  • Gen 29:02 And he looked, and behold a well in the field, and, lo,

  • there [were] three flocks of sheep lying by it; for out of that
  • well

  • they watered the flocks: and a great stone [was] upon the well's

  • mouth.



  • Gen 29:03 And thither were all the flocks gathered: and they
  • rolled

  • the stone from the well's mouth, and watered the sheep, and put
  • the

  • stone again upon the well's mouth in his place.



  • Gen 29:04 And Jacob said unto them, My brethren, whence [be] ye?
  • And

  • they said, Of Haran [are] we.



  • Gen 29:05 And he said unto them, Know ye Laban the son of Nahor?
  • And

  • they said, We know [him].



  • Gen 29:06 And he said unto them, [Is] he well? And they said, [He

  • is] well: and, behold, Rachel his daughter cometh with the sheep.



  • Gen 29:07 And he said, Lo, [it is] yet high day, neither [is it]

  • time that the cattle should be gathered together: water ye the

  • sheep, and go [and] feed [them].



  • Gen 29:08 And they said, We cannot, until all the flocks be
  • gathered

  • together, and [till] they roll the stone from the well's mouth;
  • then

  • we water the sheep.



  • Gen 29:09 And while he yet spake with them, Rachel came with her

  • father's sheep: for she kept them.



  • Gen 29:10 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.



  • Gen 29:11 And Jacob kissed Rachel, and lifted up his voice, and

  • wept.



  • Gen 29:12 And Jacob told Rachel that he [was] her father's
  • brother,

  • and that he [was] Rebekah's son: and she ran and told her father.



  • Gen 29:13 And it came to pass, when Laban heard the tidings of
  • Jacob

  • his sister's son, that he ran to meet him, and embraced him, and

  • kissed him, and brought him to his house. And he told Laban all

  • these things.



  • Gen 29:14 And Laban said to him, Surely thou [art] my bone and my

  • flesh. And he abode with him the space of a month.



  • Gen 29:15 And Laban said unto Jacob, Because thou [art] my
  • brother,

  • shouldest thou therefore serve me for nought? tell me, what
  • [shall]

  • thy wages [be]?



  • Gen 29:16 And Laban had two daughters: the name of the elder
  • [was]

  • Leah, and the name of the younger [was] Rachel.



  • Gen 29:17 Leah [was] tender eyed; but Rachel was beautiful and
  • well

  • favoured.



  • Gen 29:18 And Jacob loved Rachel; and said, I will serve thee
  • seven

  • years for Rachel thy younger daughter.



  • Gen 29:19 And Laban said, [It is] better that I give her to thee,

  • than that I should give her to another man: abide with me.



  • Gen 29:20 And Jacob served seven years for Rachel; and they
  • seemed

  • unto him [but] a few days, for the love he had to her.



  • Gen 29:21 And Jacob said unto Laban, Give [me] my wife, for my
  • days

  • are fulfilled, that I may go in unto her.



  • Gen 29:22 And Laban gathered together all the men of the place,
  • and

  • made a feast.



  • Gen 29:23 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.



  • Gen 29:24 And Laban gave unto his daughter Leah Zilpah his maid

  • [for] an handmaid.



  • Gen 29:25 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?



  • Gen 29:26 And Laban said, It must not be so done in our country,
  • to

  • give the younger before the firstborn.



  • Gen 29:27 Fulfil her week, and we will give thee this also for
  • the

  • service which thou shalt serve with me yet seven other years.



  • Gen 29:28 And Jacob did so, and fulfilled her week: and he gave
  • him

  • Rachel his daughter to wife also.



  • Gen 29:29 And Laban gave to Rachel his daughter Bilhah his
  • handmaid

  • to be her maid.



  • Gen 29:30 And he went in also unto Rachel, and he loved also
  • Rachel

  • more than Leah, and served with him yet seven other years.



  • Gen 29:31 And when the LORD saw that Leah [was] hated, he opened
  • her

  • womb: but Rachel [was] barren.



  • Gen 29:32 And Leah conceived, and bare a son, and she called his

  • name Reuben: for she said, Surely the LORD hath looked upon my

  • affliction; now therefore my husband will love me.



  • Gen 29:33 And she conceived again, and bare a son; and said,
  • Because

  • the LORD hath heard that I [was] hated, he hath therefore given
  • me

  • this [son] also: and she called his name Simeon.



  • Gen 29:34 And she conceived again, and bare a son; and said, Now

  • this time will my husband be joined unto me, because I have born
  • him

  • three sons: therefore was his name called Levi.



  • Gen 29:35 And she conceived again, and bare a son: and she said,
  • Now

  • will I praise the LORD: therefore she called his name Judah; and

  • left bearing.



  • Gen 30:01 And when Rachel saw that she bare Jacob no children,

  • Rachel envied her sister; and said unto Jacob, Give me children,
  • or

  • else I die.



  • Gen 30:02 And Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel: and he
  • said,

  • [Am] I in God's stead, who hath withheld from thee the fruit of
  • the

  • womb?



  • Gen 30:03 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.



  • Gen 30:04 And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid to wife: and Jacob

  • went in unto her.



  • Gen 30:05 And Bilhah conceived, and bare Jacob a son.



  • Gen 30:06 And Rachel said, God hath judged me, and hath also
  • heard

  • my voice, and hath given me a son: therefore called she his name

  • Dan.



  • Gen 30:07 And Bilhah Rachel's maid conceived again, and bare
  • Jacob a

  • second son.



  • Gen 30:08 And Rachel said, With great wrestlings have I wrestled

  • with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called his name

  • Naphtali.



  • Gen 30:09 When Leah saw that she had left bearing, she took
  • Zilpah

  • her maid, and gave her Jacob to wife.



  • Gen 30:10 And Zilpah Leah's maid bare Jacob a son.



  • Gen 30:11 And Leah said, A troop cometh: and she called his name

  • Gad.



  • Gen 30:12 And Zilpah Leah's maid bare Jacob a second son.



  • Gen 30:13 And Leah said, Happy am I, for the daughters will call
  • me

  • blessed: and she called his name Asher.



  • Gen 30:14 And Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest, and found

  • mandrakes in the field, and brought them unto his mother Leah.
  • Then

  • Rachel said to Leah, Give me, I pray thee, of thy son's
  • mandrakes.



  • Gen 30:15 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.



  • Gen 30:16 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.



  • Gen 30:17 And God hearkened unto Leah, and she conceived, and
  • bare

  • Jacob the fifth son.



  • Gen 30:18 And Leah said, God hath given me my hire, because I
  • have

  • given my maiden to my husband: and she called his name Issachar.



  • Gen 30:19 And Leah conceived again, and bare Jacob the sixth son.



  • Gen 30:20 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.



  • Gen 30:21 And afterwards she bare a daughter, and called her name

  • Dinah.



  • Gen 30:22 And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her,
  • and

  • opened her womb.



  • Gen 30:23 And she conceived, and bare a son; and said, God hath

  • taken away my reproach:



  • Gen 30:24 And she called his name Joseph; and said, The LORD
  • shall

  • add to me another son.



  • Gen 30:25 And it came to pass, when Rachel had born Joseph, that

  • Jacob said unto Laban, Send me away, that I may go unto mine own

  • place, and to my country. Gen 30:26 Give [me] my wives and my

  • children, for whom I have served thee, and let me go: for thou

  • knowest my service which I have done thee.



  • Gen 30:27 And Laban said unto him, I pray thee, if I have found

  • favour in thine eyes, [tarry: for] I have learned by experience
  • that

  • the LORD hath blessed me for thy sake.



  • Gen 30:28 And he said, Appoint me thy wages, and I will give
  • [it].



  • Gen 30:29 And he said unto him, Thou knowest how I have served
  • thee,

  • and how thy cattle was with me.



  • Gen 30:30 For [it was] little which thou hadst before I [came],
  • and

  • it is [now] increased unto a multitude; and the LORD hath blessed

  • thee since my coming: and now when shall I provide for mine own

  • house also?



  • Gen 30:31 And he said, What shall I give thee? And Jacob said,
  • Thou

  • shalt not give me any thing: if thou wilt do this thing for me, I

  • will again feed [and] keep thy flock.



  • Gen 30:32 I will pass through all thy flock to day, removing from

  • thence all the speckled and spotted cattle, and all the brown
  • cattle

  • among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled among the goats:
  • and

  • [of such] shall be my hire.



  • Gen 30:33 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.



  • Gen 30:34 And Laban said, Behold, I would it might be according
  • to

  • thy word.



  • Gen 30:35 And he removed that day the he goats that were

  • ringstreaked and spotted, and all the she goats that were
  • speckled

  • and spotted, [and] every one that had [some] white in it, and all

  • the brown among the sheep, and gave [them] into the hand of his

  • sons.



  • Gen 30:36 And he set three days' journey betwixt himself and
  • Jacob:

  • and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flocks.



  • Gen 30:37 And Jacob took him rods of green poplar, and of the
  • hazel

  • and chestnut tree; and pilled white streaks in them, and made the

  • white appear which [was] in the rods.



  • Gen 30:38 And he set the rods which he had pilled before the
  • flocks

  • in the gutters in the watering troughs when the flocks came to

  • drink, that they should conceive when they came to drink.



  • Gen 30:39 And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought

  • forth cattle ringstreaked, speckled, and spotted.



  • Gen 30:40 And Jacob did separate the lambs, and set the faces of
  • the

  • flocks toward the ringstreaked, 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.



  • Gen 30:41 And it came to pass, whensoever the stronger cattle did

  • conceive, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the cattle
  • in

  • the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods.



  • Gen 30:42 But when the cattle were feeble, he put [them] not in:
  • so

  • the feebler were Laban's, and the stronger Jacob's.



  • Gen 30:43 And the man increased exceedingly, and had much cattle,

  • and maidservants, and menservants, and camels, and asses.



  • Gen 31:01 And he heard the words of Laban's sons, saying, Jacob
  • hath

  • taken away all that [was] our father's; and of [that] which [was]

  • our father's hath he gotten all this glory.



  • Gen 31:02 And Jacob beheld the countenance of Laban, and, behold,
  • it

  • [was] not toward him as before.



  • Gen 31:03 And the LORD said unto Jacob, Return unto the land of
  • thy

  • fathers, and to thy kindred; and I will be with thee.



  • Gen 31:04 And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field

  • unto his flock,



  • Gen 31:05 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.



  • Gen 31:06 And ye know that with all my power I have served your

  • father.



  • Gen 31:07 And your father hath deceived me, and changed my wages
  • ten

  • times; but God suffered him not to hurt me.



  • Gen 31:08 If he said thus, The speckled shall be thy wages; then
  • all

  • the cattle bare speckled: and if he said thus, The ringstreaked

  • shall be thy hire; then bare all the cattle ringstreaked.



  • Gen 31:09 Thus God hath taken away the cattle of your father, and

  • given [them] to me.



  • Gen 31:10 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] ringstreaked, speckled,
  • and

  • grisled.



  • Gen 31:11 And the angel of God spake unto me in a dream,
  • [saying],

  • Jacob: And I said, Here [am] I.



  • Gen 31:12 And he said, Lift up now thine eyes, and see, all the
  • rams

  • which leap upon the cattle [are] ringstreaked, speckled, and

  • grisled: for I have seen all that Laban doeth unto thee.



  • Gen 31:13 I [am] the God of Bethel, where thou anointedst the

  • pillar, [and] where thou vowedst a vow unto me: now arise, get
  • thee

  • out from this land, and return unto the land of thy kindred.



  • Gen 31:14 And Rachel and Leah answered and said unto him, [Is
  • there]

  • yet any portion or inheritance for us in our father's house?



  • Gen 31:15 Are we not counted of him strangers? for he hath sold
  • us,

  • and hath quite devoured also our money.



  • Gen 31:16 For all the riches which God hath taken from our
  • father,

  • that [is] ours, and our children's: now then, whatsoever God hath

  • said unto thee, do.



  • Gen 31:17 Then Jacob rose up, and set his sons and his wives upon

  • camels;



  • Gen 31:18 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 Padanaram, for to go to Isaac his father in the land of
  • Canaan.



  • Gen 31:19 And Laban went to shear his sheep: and Rachel had
  • stolen

  • the images that [were] her father's.



  • Gen 31:20 And Jacob stole away unawares to Laban the Syrian, in
  • that

  • he told him not that he fled.



  • Gen 31:21 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.



  • Gen 31:22 And it was told Laban on the third day that Jacob was

  • fled.



  • Gen 31:23 And he took his brethren with him, and pursued after
  • him

  • seven days' journey; and they overtook him in the mount Gilead.



  • Gen 31:24 And God came to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night,
  • and

  • said unto him, Take heed that thou speak not to Jacob either
  • good or

  • bad.



  • Gen 31:25 Then Laban overtook Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his
  • tent

  • in the mount: and Laban with his brethren pitched in the mount of

  • Gilead.



  • Gen 31:26 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?



  • Gen 31:27 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?



  • Gen 31:28 And hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and my
  • daughters?

  • thou hast now done foolishly in [so] doing.



  • Gen 31:29 It is in the power of my hand to do you hurt: but the
  • God

  • of your father spake unto me yesternight, saying, Take thou heed

  • that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.



  • Gen 31:30 And now, [though] thou wouldest needs be gone, because

  • thou sore longedst after thy father's house, [yet] wherefore hast

  • thou stolen my gods?



  • Gen 31:31 And Jacob answered and said to Laban, Because I was

  • afraid: for I said, Peradventure thou wouldest take by force thy

  • daughters from me.



  • Gen 31:32 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.



  • Gen 31:33 And Laban went into Jacob's tent, and into Leah's tent,

  • and into the two maidservants' tents; but he found [them] not.
  • Then

  • went he out of Leah's tent, and entered into Rachel's tent.



  • Gen 31:34 Now Rachel had taken the images, and put them in the

  • camel's furniture, and sat upon them. And Laban searched all the

  • tent, but found [them] not.



  • Gen 31:35 And she said to her father, Let it not displease my
  • lord

  • that I cannot rise up before thee; for the custom of women [is]
  • upon

  • me. And he searched, but found not the images.



  • Gen 31:36 And Jacob was wroth, and chided 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?



  • Gen 31:37 Whereas thou hast searched all my stuff, what hast thou

  • found of all thy household stuff? set [it] here before my
  • brethren

  • and thy brethren, that they may judge betwixt us both.



  • Gen 31:38 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.



  • Gen 31:39 That which was torn [of beasts] I brought not unto
  • thee; I

  • bare the loss of it; of my hand didst thou require it, [whether]

  • stolen by day, or stolen by night.



  • Gen 31:40 [Thus] I was; in the day the drought consumed me, and
  • the

  • frost by night; and my sleep departed from mine eyes.



  • Gen 31:41 Thus have I been twenty years in thy house; I served
  • thee

  • fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy
  • cattle:

  • and thou hast changed my wages ten times.



  • Gen 31:42 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.



  • Gen 31:43 And Laban answered and said unto Jacob, [These]
  • daughters

  • [are] my daughters, and [these] children [are] my children, and

  • [these] cattle [are] my cattle, and all that thou seest [is]
  • mine:

  • and what can I do this day unto these my daughters, or unto their

  • children which they have born?



  • Gen 31:44 Now therefore come thou, let us make a covenant, I and

  • thou; and let it be for a witness between me and thee.



  • Gen 31:45 And Jacob took a stone, and set it up [for] a pillar.



  • Gen 31:46 And Jacob said unto his brethren, Gather stones; and
  • they

  • took stones, and made an heap: and they did eat there upon the
  • heap.



  • Gen 31:47 And Laban called it Jegarsahadutha: but Jacob called it

  • Galeed.



  • Gen 31:48 And Laban said, This heap [is] a witness between me and

  • thee this day. Therefore was the name of it called Galeed;



  • Gen 31:49 And Mizpah; for he said, The LORD watch between me and

  • thee, when we are absent one from another.



  • Gen 31:50 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.



  • Gen 31:51 And Laban said to Jacob, Behold this heap, and behold

  • [this] pillar, which I have cast betwixt me and thee;



  • Gen 31:52 This heap [be] witness, and [this] pillar [be] witness,

  • that I will not pass over this heap to thee, and that thou shalt
  • not

  • pass over this heap and this pillar unto me, for harm.



  • Gen 31:53 The God of Abraham, and the God of Nahor, the God of
  • their

  • father, judge betwixt us. And Jacob sware by the fear of his
  • father

  • Isaac.



  • Gen 31:54 Then Jacob offered sacrifice upon the mount, and called

  • his brethren to eat bread: and they did eat bread, and tarried
  • all

  • night in the mount.



  • Gen 31:55 And early in the morning Laban rose up, and kissed his

  • sons and his daughters, and blessed them: and Laban departed, and

  • returned unto his place.



  • Gen 32:01 And Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met
  • him.



  • Gen 32:02 And when Jacob saw them, he said, This [is] God's host:

  • and he called the name of that place Mahanaim.



  • Gen 32:03 And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his
  • brother

  • unto the land of Seir, the country of Edom.



  • Gen 32:04 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:



  • Gen 32:05 And I have oxen, and asses, flocks, and menservants,
  • and

  • womenservants: and I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find

  • grace in thy sight.



  • Gen 32:06 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.



  • Gen 32:07 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;



  • Gen 32:08 And said, If Esau come to the one company, and smite
  • it,

  • then the other company which is left shall escape.



  • Gen 32:09 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:



  • Gen 32:10 I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies, and of

  • all the truth, which thou hast showed unto thy servant; for with
  • my

  • staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I am become two bands.



  • Gen 32:11 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.



  • Gen 32:12 And thou saidst, I will surely do thee good, and make
  • thy

  • seed as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for
  • multitude.



  • Gen 32:13 And he lodged there that same night; and took of that

  • which came to his hand a present for Esau his brother;



  • Gen 32:14 Two hundred she goats, and twenty he goats, two hundred

  • ewes, and twenty rams,



  • Gen 32:15 Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty kine, and
  • ten

  • bulls, twenty she asses, and ten foals.



  • Gen 32:16 And he delivered [them] into the hand of his servants,

  • every drove by themselves; and said unto his servants, Pass over

  • before me, and put a space betwixt drove and drove.



  • Gen 32:17 And he commanded the foremost, saying, When Esau my

  • brother meeteth thee, and asketh thee, saying, Whose [art] thou?
  • and

  • whither goest thou? and whose [are] these before thee?



  • Gen 32:18 Then thou shalt say, [They be] thy servant Jacob's; it

  • [is] a present sent unto my lord Esau: and, behold, also he [is]

  • behind us.



  • Gen 32:19 And so commanded he the second, and the third, and all

  • that followed the droves, saying, On this manner shall ye speak
  • unto

  • Esau, when ye find him.



  • Gen 32:20 And say ye moreover, Behold, thy servant Jacob [is]
  • behind

  • us. For he said, I will appease him with the present that goeth

  • before me, and afterward I will see his face; peradventure he
  • will

  • accept of me.



  • Gen 32:21 So went the present over before him: and himself lodged

  • that night in the company.



  • Gen 32:22 And he rose up that night, and took his two wives, and
  • his

  • two womenservants, and his eleven sons, and passed over the ford

  • Jabbok.



  • Gen 32:23 And he took them, and sent them over the brook, and
  • sent

  • over that he had.



  • Gen 32:24 And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with

  • him until the breaking of the day.



  • Gen 32:25 And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he

  • touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh
  • was

  • out of joint, as he wrestled with him.



  • Gen 32:26 And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he
  • said,

  • I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.



  • Gen 32:27 And he said unto him, What [is] thy name? And he said,

  • Jacob.



  • Gen 32:28 And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob,
  • but

  • Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men,
  • and

  • hast prevailed.



  • Gen 32:29 And Jacob asked [him], and said, Tell [me], I pray
  • thee,

  • thy name. And he said, Wherefore [is] it [that] thou dost ask
  • after

  • my name? And he blessed him there.



  • Gen 32:30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I
  • have

  • seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.



  • Gen 32:31 And as he passed over Penuel the sun rose upon him,
  • and he

  • halted upon his thigh.



  • Gen 32:32 Therefore the children of Israel eat not [of] the sinew

  • which shrank, which [is] upon the hollow of the thigh, unto this

  • day: because he touched the hollow of Jacob's thigh in the sinew

  • that shrank.



  • Gen 33:01 And Jacob lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold,

  • Esau came, and with him four hundred men. And he divided the

  • children unto Leah, and unto Rachel, and unto the two handmaids.



  • Gen 33:02 And he put the handmaids and their children foremost,
  • and

  • Leah and her children after, and Rachel and Joseph hindermost.



  • Gen 33:03 And he passed over before them, and bowed himself to
  • the

  • ground seven times, until he came near to his brother.



  • Gen 33:04 And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on

  • his neck, and kissed him: and they wept.



  • Gen 33:05 And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the women and the

  • children; and said, Who [are] those with thee? And he said, The

  • children which God hath graciously given thy servant.



  • Gen 33:06 Then the handmaidens came near, they and their
  • children,

  • and they bowed themselves.



  • Gen 33:07 And Leah also with her children came near, and bowed

  • themselves: and after came Joseph near and Rachel, and they bowed

  • themselves.



  • Gen 33:08 And he said, What [meanest] thou by all this drove
  • which I

  • met? And he said, [These are] to find grace in the sight of my
  • lord.



  • Gen 33:09 And Esau said, I have enough, my brother; keep that
  • thou

  • hast unto thyself.



  • Gen 33:10 And Jacob said, Nay, I pray thee, if now I have found

  • grace in thy sight, then receive my present at my hand: for

  • therefore I have seen thy face, as though I had seen the face of

  • God, and thou wast pleased with me.



  • Gen 33:11 Take, I pray thee, my blessing that is brought to thee;

  • because God hath dealt graciously with me, and because I have

  • enough. And he urged him, and he took [it].



  • Gen 33:12 And he said, Let us take our journey, and let us go,
  • and I

  • will go before thee.



  • Gen 33:13 And he said unto him, My lord knoweth that the children

  • [are] tender, and the flocks and herds with young [are] with me:
  • and

  • if men should overdrive them one day, all the flock will die.



  • Gen 33:14 Let my lord, I pray thee, pass over before his servant:

  • and I will lead on softly, according as the cattle that goeth
  • before

  • me and the children be able to endure, until I come unto my lord

  • unto Seir.



  • Gen 33:15 And Esau said, Let me now leave with thee [some] of the

  • folk that [are] with me. And he said, What needeth it? let me
  • find

  • grace in the sight of my lord.



  • Gen 33:16 So Esau returned that day on his way unto Seir.



  • Gen 33:17 And Jacob journeyed to Succoth, and built him an house,

  • and made booths for his cattle: therefore the name of the place
  • is

  • called Succoth.



  • Gen 33:18 And Jacob came to Shalem, a city of Shechem, which
  • [is] in

  • the land of Canaan, when he came from Padanaram; and pitched his

  • tent before the city.



  • Gen 33:19 And he bought a parcel of a field, where he had spread
  • his

  • tent, at the hand of the children of Hamor, Shechem's father,
  • for an

  • hundred pieces of money.



  • Gen 33:20 And he erected there an altar, and called it

  • Elelohe-Israel.



  • Gen 34:01 And Dinah the daughter of Leah, which she bare unto
  • Jacob,

  • went out to see the daughters of the land.



  • Gen 34:02 And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of

  • the country, saw her, he took her, and lay with her, and defiled

  • her.



  • Gen 34:03 And his soul clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob,
  • and

  • he loved the damsel, and spake kindly unto the damsel.



  • Gen 34:04 And Shechem spake unto his father Hamor, saying, Get me

  • this damsel to wife.



  • Gen 34:05 And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter:

  • now his sons were with his cattle in the field: and Jacob held
  • his

  • peace until they were come.



  • Gen 34:06 And Hamor the father of Shechem went out unto Jacob to

  • commune with him.



  • Gen 34:07 And the sons of Jacob came out of the field when they

  • heard [it]: and the men were grieved, and they were very wroth,

  • because he had wrought folly in Israel in lying with Jacob's

  • daughter; which thing ought not to be done.



  • Gen 34:08 And Hamor communed with them, saying, The soul of my
  • son

  • Shechem longeth for your daughter: I pray you give her him to
  • wife.



  • Gen 34:09 And make ye marriages with us, [and] give your
  • daughters

  • unto us, and take our daughters unto you.



  • Gen 34:10 And ye shall dwell with us: and the land shall be
  • before

  • you; dwell and trade ye therein, and get you possessions therein.



  • Gen 34:11 And Shechem said unto her father and unto her brethren,

  • Let me find grace in your eyes, and what ye shall say unto me I
  • will

  • give.



  • Gen 34:12 Ask me never so much dowry and gift, and I will give

  • according as ye shall say unto me: but give me the damsel to
  • wife.



  • Gen 34:13 And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his

  • father deceitfully, and said, because he had defiled Dinah their

  • sister:



  • Gen 34:14 And they said unto them, We cannot do this thing, to
  • give

  • our sister to one that is uncircumcised; for that [were] a
  • reproach

  • unto us:



  • Gen 34:15 But in this will we consent unto you: If ye will be as
  • we

  • [be], that every male of you be circumcised;



  • Gen 34:16 Then will we give our daughters unto you, and we will
  • take

  • your daughters to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will
  • become

  • one people.



  • Gen 34:17 But if ye will not hearken unto us, to be circumcised;

  • then will we take our daughter, and we will be gone.



  • Gen 34:18 And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamor's son.



  • Gen 34:19 And the young man deferred not to do the thing,
  • because he

  • had delight in Jacob's daughter: and he [was] more honourable
  • than

  • all the house of his father.



  • Gen 34:20 And Hamor and Shechem his son came unto the gate of
  • their

  • city, and communed with the men of their city, saying,



  • Gen 34:21 These men [are] peaceable with us; therefore let them

  • dwell in the land, and trade therein; for the land, behold, [it
  • is]

  • large enough for them; let us take their daughters to us for
  • wives,

  • and let us give them our daughters.



  • Gen 34:22 Only herein will the men consent unto us for to dwell
  • with

  • us, to be one people, if every male among us be circumcised, as
  • they

  • [are] circumcised.



  • Gen 34:23 [Shall] not their cattle and their substance and every

  • beast of theirs [be] ours? only let us consent unto them, and
  • they

  • will dwell with us.



  • Gen 34:24 And unto Hamor and unto Shechem his son hearkened all
  • that

  • went out of the gate of his city; and every male was circumcised,

  • all that went out of the gate of his city.



  • Gen 34:25 And it came to pass on the third day, when they were
  • sore,

  • that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brethren,

  • took each man his sword, and came upon the city boldly, and slew
  • all

  • the males.



  • Gen 34:26 And they slew Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge
  • of

  • the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem's house, and went out.



  • Gen 34:27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the

  • city, because they had defiled their sister.



  • Gen 34:28 They took their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses,

  • and that which [was] in the city, and that which [was] in the
  • field,



  • Gen 34:29 And all their wealth, and all their little ones, and
  • their

  • wives took they captive, and spoiled even all that [was] in the

  • house.



  • Gen 34:30 And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled me
  • to

  • make me to stink among the inhabitants of the land, among the

  • Canaanites and the Perizzites: and I [being] few in number, they

  • shall gather themselves together against me, and slay me; and I

  • shall be destroyed, I and my house.



  • Gen 34:31 And they said, Should he deal with our sister as with
  • an

  • harlot?



  • Gen 35:01 And God said unto Jacob, Arise, go up to Bethel, and
  • dwell

  • there: and make there an altar unto God, that appeared unto thee

  • when thou fleddest from the face of Esau thy brother.



  • Gen 35:02 Then Jacob said unto his household, and to all that
  • [were]

  • with him, Put away the strange gods that [are] among you, and be

  • clean, and change your garments:



  • Gen 35:03 And let us arise, and go up to Bethel; and I will make

  • there an altar unto God, who answered me in the day of my
  • distress,

  • and was with me in the way which I went.



  • Gen 35:04 And they gave unto Jacob all the strange gods which
  • [were]

  • in their hand, and [all their] earrings which [were] in their
  • ears;

  • and Jacob hid them under the oak which [was] by Shechem.



  • Gen 35:05 And they journeyed: and the terror of God was upon the

  • cities that [were] round about them, and they did not pursue
  • after

  • the sons of Jacob.



  • Gen 35:06 So Jacob came to Luz, which [is] in the land of Canaan,

  • that [is], Bethel, he and all the people that [were] with him.



  • Gen 35:07 And he built there an altar, and called the place

  • Elbethel: because there God appeared unto him, when he fled from
  • the

  • face of his brother.



  • Gen 35:08 But Deborah Rebekah's nurse died, and she was buried

  • beneath Bethel under an oak: and the name of it was called

  • Allonbachuth.



  • Gen 35:09 And God appeared unto Jacob again, when he came out of

  • Padanaram, and blessed him.



  • Gen 35:10 And God said unto him, Thy name [is] Jacob: thy name
  • shall

  • not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name: and
  • he

  • called his name Israel.



  • Gen 35:11 And God said unto him, I [am] God Almighty: be fruitful

  • and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee,

  • and kings shall come out of thy loins;



  • Gen 35:12 And the land which I gave Abraham and Isaac, to thee I

  • will give it, and to thy seed after thee will I give the land.



  • Gen 35:13 And God went up from him in the place where he talked
  • with

  • him.



  • Gen 35:14 And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he talked

  • with him, [even] a pillar of stone: and he poured a drink
  • offering

  • thereon, and he poured oil thereon.



  • Gen 35:15 And Jacob called the name of the place where God spake

  • with him, Bethel.



  • Gen 35:16 And they journeyed from Bethel; and there was but a
  • little

  • way to come to Ephrath: and Rachel travailed, and she had hard

  • labour.



  • Gen 35:17 And it came to pass, when she was in hard labour, that
  • the

  • midwife said unto her, Fear not; thou shalt have this son also.



  • Gen 35:18 And it came to pass, as her soul was in departing, (for

  • she died) that she called his name Benoni: but his father called
  • him

  • Benjamin.



  • Gen 35:19 And Rachel died, and was buried in the way to Ephrath,

  • which [is] Bethlehem.



  • Gen 35:20 And Jacob set a pillar upon her grave: that [is] the

  • pillar of Rachel's grave unto this day.



  • Gen 35:21 And Israel journeyed, and spread his tent beyond the
  • tower

  • of Edar.



  • Gen 35:22 And it came to pass, when Israel dwelt in that land,
  • that

  • Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine: and
  • Israel

  • heard [it]. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve:



  • Gen 35:23 The sons of Leah; Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, and
  • Simeon,

  • and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun:



  • Gen 35:24 The sons of Rachel; Joseph, and Benjamin:



  • Gen 35:25 And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's handmaid; Dan, and

  • Naphtali:



  • Gen 35:26 And the sons of Zilpah, Leah's handmaid; Gad, and
  • Asher:

  • these [are] the sons of Jacob, which were born to him in
  • Padanaram.



  • Gen 35:27 And Jacob came unto Isaac his father unto Mamre, unto
  • the

  • city of Arbah, which [is] Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac
  • sojourned.



  • Gen 35:28 And the days of Isaac were an hundred and fourscore
  • years.



  • Gen 35:29 And Isaac gave up the ghost, and died, and was gathered

  • unto his people, [being] old and full of days: and his sons Esau
  • and

  • Jacob buried him.



  • Gen 36:01 Now these [are] the generations of Esau, who [is] Edom.



  • Gen 36:02 Esau took his wives of the daughters of Canaan; Adah
  • the

  • daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Aholibamah the daughter of Anah

  • the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite;



  • Gen 36:03 And Bashemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebajoth.



  • Gen 36:04 And Adah bare to Esau Eliphaz; and Bashemath bare
  • Reuel;



  • Gen 36:05 And Aholibamah bare Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah: these

  • [are] the sons of Esau, which were born unto him in the land of

  • Canaan.



  • Gen 36:06 And Esau took his wives, and his sons, and his
  • daughters,

  • and all the persons of his house, and his cattle, and all his

  • beasts, and all his substance, which he had got in the land of

  • Canaan; and went into the country from the face of his brother

  • Jacob.



  • Gen 36:07 For their riches were more than that they might dwell

  • together; and the land wherein they were strangers could not bear

  • them because of their cattle.



  • Gen 36:08 Thus dwelt Esau in mount Seir: Esau [is] Edom.



  • Gen 36:09 And these [are] the generations of Esau the father of
  • the

  • Edomites in mount Seir:



  • Gen 36:10 These [are] the names of Esau's sons; Eliphaz the son
  • of

  • Adah the wife of Esau, Reuel the son of Bashemath the wife of

  • Shammah, and Mizzah: these were the sons of Bashemath Esau's

  • the

  • sons of Adah.



  • Gen 36:17 And these [are] the sons of Reuel Esau's son; duke

  • Bashemath Esau's wife.



  • Gen 36:18 And these [are] the sons of Aholibamah Esau's wife;

  • Jeush, duke Jaalam, duke Korah: these [were] the dukes [that
  • came]

  • of Aholibamah the daughter of Anah, Esau's wife.



  • Gen 36:19 These [are] the sons of Esau, who [is] Edom, and these

  • [are] their dukes.



  • Gen 36:20 These [are] the sons of Seir the Horite, who inhabited
  • the

  • land; Lotan, and Shobal, and Zibeon, and Anah,



  • Gen 36:21 And Dishon, and Ezer, and Dishan: these [are] the
  • dukes of

  • the Horites, the children of Seir in the land of Edom.



  • Gen 36:22 And the children of Lotan were Hori and Hemam; and
  • Lotan's

  • sister [was] Timna.



  • Gen 36:23 And the children of Shobal [were] these; Alvan, and

  • Manahath, and Ebal, Shepho, and Onam.



  • Gen 36:24 And these [are] the children of Zibeon; both Ajah, and

  • Anah: this [was that] Anah that found the mules in the
  • wilderness,

  • as he fed the asses of Zibeon his father.



  • Gen 36:25 And the children of Anah [were] these; Dishon, and

  • Aholibamah the daughter of Anah.



  • Gen 36:26 And these [are] the children of Dishon; Hemdan, and

  • among their dukes in the land of Seir.



  • Gen 36:31 And these [are] the kings that reigned in the land of

  • Edom, before there reigned any king over the children of Israel.



  • Gen 36:32 And Bela the son of Beor reigned in Edom: and the name
  • of

  • his city [was] Dinhabah.



  • Gen 36:33 And Bela died, and Jobab the son of Zerah of Bozrah

  • reigned in his stead.



  • Gen 36:34 And Jobab died, and Husham of the land of Temani
  • reigned

  • in his stead.



  • Gen 36:35 And Husham died, and Hadad the son of Bedad, who smote

  • he

  • [is] Esau the father of the Edomites.



  • Gen 37:01 And Jacob dwelt in the land wherein his father was a

  • stranger, in the land of Canaan.



  • Gen 37:02 These [are] the generations of Jacob. Joseph, [being]

  • seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren; and

  • the lad [was] with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of
  • Zilpah,

  • his father's wives: and Joseph brought unto his father their evil

  • report.



  • Gen 37:03 Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children,

  • because he [was] the son of his old age: and he made him a coat
  • of

  • [many] colours.



  • Gen 37:04 And when his brethren saw that their father loved him
  • more

  • than all his brethren, they hated him, and could not speak
  • peaceably

  • unto him.



  • Gen 37:05 And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told [it] his
  • brethren:

  • and they hated him yet the more.



  • Gen 37:06 And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream
  • which

  • I have dreamed:



  • Gen 37:07 For, behold, we [were] binding sheaves in the field,
  • and,

  • lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your

  • sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf.



  • Gen 37:08 And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign
  • over

  • us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated
  • him

  • yet the more for his dreams, and for his words.



  • Gen 37:09 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his

  • brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and,

  • behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance
  • to

  • me.



  • Gen 37:10 And he told [it] to his father, and to his brethren:
  • and

  • his father rebuked him, and said unto him, What [is] this dream
  • that

  • thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed

  • come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?



  • Gen 37:11 And his brethren envied him; but his father observed
  • the

  • saying.



  • Gen 37:12 And his brethren went to feed their father's flock in

  • Shechem.



  • Gen 37:13 And Israel said unto Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed
  • [the

  • flock] in Shechem? come, and I will send thee unto them. And he
  • said

  • to him, Here [am I].



  • Gen 37:14 And he said to him, Go, I pray thee, see whether it be

  • well with thy brethren, and well with the flocks; and bring me
  • word

  • again. So he sent him out of the vale of Hebron, and he came to

  • Shechem.



  • Gen 37:15 And a certain man found him, and, behold, [he was]

  • wandering in the field: and the man asked him, saying, What
  • seekest

  • thou?



  • Gen 37:16 And he said, I seek my brethren: tell me, I pray thee,

  • where they feed [their flocks].



  • Gen 37:17 And the man said, They are departed hence; for I heard

  • them say, Let us go to Dothan. And Joseph went after his
  • brethren,

  • and found them in Dothan.



  • Gen 37:18 And when they saw him afar off, even before he came
  • near

  • unto them, they conspired against him to slay him.



  • Gen 37:19 And they said one to another, Behold, this dreamer
  • cometh.



  • Gen 37:20 Come now therefore, and let us slay him, and cast him
  • into

  • some pit, and we will say, Some evil beast hath devoured him:
  • and we

  • shall see what will become of his dreams.



  • Gen 37:21 And Reuben heard [it], and he delivered him out of
  • their

  • hands; and said, Let us not kill him.



  • Gen 37:22 And Reuben said unto them, Shed no blood, [but] cast
  • him

  • into this pit that [is] in the wilderness, and lay no hand upon
  • him;

  • that he might rid him out of their hands, to deliver him to his

  • father again.



  • Gen 37:23 And it came to pass, when Joseph was come unto his

  • brethren, that they stripped Joseph out of his coat, [his] coat
  • of

  • [many] colours that [was] on him;



  • Gen 37:24 And they took him, and cast him into a pit: and the pit

  • [was] empty, [there was] no water in it.



  • Gen 37:25 And they sat down to eat bread: and they lifted up
  • their

  • eyes and looked, and, behold, a company of Ishmeelites came from

  • Gilead with their camels bearing spicery and balm and myrrh,
  • going

  • to carry [it] down to Egypt.



  • Gen 37:26 And Judah said unto his brethren, What profit [is it]
  • if

  • we slay our brother, and conceal his blood?



  • Gen 37:27 Come, and let us sell him to the Ishmeelites, and let
  • not

  • our hand be upon him; for he [is] our brother [and] our flesh.
  • And

  • his brethren were content.



  • Gen 37:28 Then there passed by Midianites merchantmen; and they
  • drew

  • and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the

  • Ishmeelites for twenty [pieces] of silver: and they brought
  • Joseph

  • into Egypt.



  • Gen 37:29 And Reuben returned unto the pit; and, behold, Joseph

  • [was] not in the pit; and he rent his clothes.



  • Gen 37:30 And he returned unto his brethren, and said, The child

  • [is] not; and I, whither shall I go?



  • Gen 37:31 And they took Joseph's coat, and killed a kid of the

  • goats, and dipped the coat in the blood;



  • Gen 37:32 And they sent the coat of [many] colours, and they
  • brought

  • [it] to their father; and said, This have we found: know now
  • whether

  • it [be] thy son's coat or no.



  • Gen 37:33 And he knew it, and said, [It is] my son's coat; an
  • evil

  • beast hath devoured him; Joseph is without doubt rent in pieces.



  • Gen 37:34 And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his

  • loins, and mourned for his son many days.



  • Gen 37:35 And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to
  • comfort

  • him; but he refused to be comforted; and he said, For I will go
  • down

  • into the grave unto my son mourning. Thus his father wept for
  • him.



  • Gen 37:36 And the Midianites sold him into Egypt unto Potiphar,
  • an

  • officer of Pharaoh's, [and] captain of the guard.



  • Gen 38:01 And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down

  • from his brethren, and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose
  • name

  • [was] Hirah.



  • Gen 38:02 And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite,

  • whose name [was] Shuah; and he took her, and went in unto her.



  • Gen 38:03 And she conceived, and bare a son; and he called his
  • name

  • Er.



  • Gen 38:04 And she conceived again, and bare a son; and she called

  • his name Onan.



  • Gen 38:05 And she yet again conceived, and bare a son; and called

  • his name Shelah: and he was at Chezib, when she bare him.



  • Gen 38:06 And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, whose name

  • [was] Tamar.



  • Gen 38:07 And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of
  • the

  • LORD; and the LORD slew him.



  • Gen 38:08 And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother's
  • wife,

  • and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother.



  • Gen 38:09 And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it
  • came

  • to pass, when he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled

  • [it] on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother.



  • Gen 38:10 And the thing which he did displeased the LORD:
  • wherefore

  • he slew him also.



  • Gen 38:11 Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter in law, Remain a

  • widow at thy father's house, till Shelah my son be grown: for he

  • said, Lest peradventure he die also, as his brethren [did]. And

  • Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house.



  • Gen 38:12 And in process of time the daughter of Shuah Judah's
  • wife

  • died; and Judah was comforted, and went up unto his
  • sheepshearers to

  • Timnath, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.



  • Gen 38:13 And it was told Tamar, saying, Behold thy father in law

  • goeth up to Timnath to shear his sheep.



  • Gen 38:14 And she put her widow's garments off from her, and
  • covered

  • her with a veil, and wrapped herself, and sat in an open place,

  • which [is] by the way to Timnath; for she saw that Shelah was
  • grown,

  • and she was not given unto him to wife.



  • Gen 38:15 When Judah saw her, he thought her [to be] an harlot;

  • because she had covered her face.



  • Gen 38:16 And he turned unto her by the way, and said, Go to, I
  • pray

  • thee, let me come in unto thee; (for he knew not that she [was]
  • his

  • daughter in law.) And she said, What wilt thou give me, that thou

  • mayest come in unto me?



  • Gen 38:17 And he said, I will send [thee] a kid from the flock.
  • And

  • she said, Wilt thou give [me] a pledge, till thou send [it]?



  • Gen 38:18 And he said, What pledge shall I give thee? And she
  • said,

  • Thy signet, and thy bracelets, and thy staff that [is] in thine

  • hand. And he gave [it] her, and came in unto her, and she
  • conceived

  • by him.



  • Gen 38:19 And she arose, and went away, and laid by her veil from

  • her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.



  • Gen 38:20 And Judah sent the kid by the hand of his friend the

  • Adullamite, to receive [his] pledge from the woman's hand: but he

  • found her not.



  • Gen 38:21 Then he asked the men of that place, saying, Where [is]

  • the harlot, that [was] openly by the way side? And they said,
  • There

  • was no harlot in this [place].



  • Gen 38:22 And he returned to Judah, and said, I cannot find her;
  • and

  • also the men of the place said, [that] there was no harlot in
  • this

  • [place].



  • Gen 38:23 And Judah said, Let her take [it] to her, lest we be

  • shamed: behold, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.



  • Gen 38:24 And it came to pass about three months after, that it
  • was

  • told Judah, saying, Tamar thy daughter in law hath played the

  • harlot; and also, behold, she [is] with child by whoredom. And
  • Judah

  • said, Bring her forth, and let her be burnt.



  • Gen 38:25 When she [was] brought forth, she sent to her father in

  • law, saying, By the man, whose these [are, am] I with child: and
  • she

  • said, Discern, I pray thee, whose [are] these, the signet, and

  • bracelets, and staff.



  • Gen 38:26 And Judah acknowledged [them], and said, She hath been

  • more righteous than I; because that I gave her not to Shelah my
  • son.

  • And he knew her again no more.



  • Gen 38:27 And it came to pass in the time of her travail, that,

  • behold, twins [were] in her womb.



  • Gen 38:28 And it came to pass, when she travailed, that [the one]

  • put out [his] hand: and the midwife took and bound upon his hand
  • a

  • scarlet thread, saying, This came out first.



  • Gen 38:29 And it came to pass, as he drew back his hand, that,

  • behold, his brother came out: and she said, How hast thou broken

  • forth? [this] breach [be] upon thee: therefore his name was
  • called

  • Pharez.



  • Gen 38:30 And afterward came out his brother, that had the
  • scarlet

  • thread upon his hand: and his name was called Zarah.



  • Gen 39:01 And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an

  • officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought
  • him of

  • the hands of the Ishmeelites, which had brought him down thither.



  • Gen 39:02 And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous
  • man;

  • and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.



  • Gen 39:03 And his master saw that the LORD [was] with him, and
  • that

  • the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand.



  • Gen 39:04 And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him:

  • and he made him overseer over his house, and all [that] he had he

  • put into his hand.



  • Gen 39:05 And it came to pass from the time [that] he had made
  • him

  • overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the LORD

  • blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing
  • of

  • the LORD was upon all that he had in the house, and in the field.



  • Gen 39:06 And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand; and he
  • knew

  • not ought he had, save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was

  • [a] goodly [person], and well favoured.



  • Gen 39:07 And it came to pass after these things, that his
  • master's

  • wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me.



  • Gen 39:08 But he refused, and said unto his master's wife,
  • Behold,

  • my master wotteth not what [is] with me in the house, and he hath

  • committed all that he hath to my hand;



  • Gen 39:09 [There is] none greater in this house than I; neither
  • hath

  • he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou [art] his

  • wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against
  • God?



  • Gen 39:10 And it came to pass, as she spake to Joseph day by day,

  • that he hearkened not unto her, to lie by her, [or] to be with
  • her.



  • Gen 39:11 And it came to pass about this time, that [Joseph] went

  • into the house to do his business; and [there was] none of the
  • men

  • of the house there within.



  • Gen 39:12 And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me:

  • and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out.



  • Gen 39:13 And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his

  • garment in her hand, and was fled forth,



  • Gen 39:14 That she called unto the men of her house, and spake
  • unto

  • them, saying, See, he hath brought in an Hebrew unto us to mock
  • us;

  • he came in unto me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice:



  • Gen 39:15 And it came to pass, when he heard that I lifted up my

  • voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled, and
  • got

  • him out.



  • Gen 39:16 And she laid up his garment by her, until his lord came

  • home.



  • Gen 39:17 And she spake unto him according to these words,
  • saying,

  • The Hebrew servant, which thou hast brought unto us, came in
  • unto me

  • to mock me:



  • Gen 39:18 And it came to pass, as I lifted up my voice and cried,

  • that he left his garment with me, and fled out.



  • Gen 39:19 And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of

  • his wife, which she spake unto him, saying, After this manner did

  • thy servant to me; that his wrath was kindled.



  • Gen 39:20 And Joseph's master took him, and put him into the
  • prison,

  • a place where the king's prisoners [were] bound: and he was
  • there in

  • the prison.



  • Gen 39:21 But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed him mercy, and

  • gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison.



  • Gen 39:22 And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's hand

  • all the prisoners that [were] in the prison; and whatsoever they
  • did

  • there, he was the doer [of it].



  • Gen 39:23 The keeper of the prison looked not to any thing [that

  • was] under his hand; because the LORD was with him, and [that]
  • which

  • he did, the LORD made [it] to prosper.



  • Gen 40:01 And it came to pass after these things, [that] the
  • butler

  • of the king of Egypt and [his] baker had offended their lord the

  • king of Egypt.



  • Gen 40:02 And Pharaoh was wroth against two [of] his officers,

  • against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the

  • bakers.



  • Gen 40:03 And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of
  • the

  • guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph [was] bound.



  • Gen 40:04 And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them,
  • and

  • he served them: and they continued a season in ward.



  • Gen 40:05 And they dreamed a dream both of them, each man his
  • dream

  • in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his
  • dream,

  • the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, which [were]
  • bound in

  • the prison.



  • Gen 40:06 And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked

  • upon them, and, behold, they [were] sad.



  • Gen 40:07 And he asked Pharaoh's officers that [were] with him in

  • the ward of his lord's house, saying, Wherefore look ye [so]
  • sadly

  • to day?



  • Gen 40:08 And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and

  • [there is] no interpreter of it. And Joseph said unto them, [Do]
  • not

  • interpretations [belong] to God? tell me [them], I pray you.



  • Gen 40:09 And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and
  • said to

  • him, In my dream, behold, a vine [was] before me;



  • Gen 40:10 And in the vine [were] three branches: and it [was] as

  • though it budded, [and] her blossoms shot forth; and the clusters

  • thereof brought forth ripe grapes:



  • Gen 40:11 And Pharaoh's cup [was] in my hand: and I took the
  • grapes,

  • and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and I gave the cup into

  • Pharaoh's hand.



  • Gen 40:12 And Joseph said unto him, This [is] the interpretation
  • of

  • it: The three branches [are] three days:



  • Gen 40:13 Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thine head,

  • and restore thee unto thy place: and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh's

  • cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his

  • butler.



  • Gen 40:14 But think on me when it shall be well with thee, and
  • show

  • kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and make mention of me unto
  • Pharaoh,

  • and bring me out of this house:



  • Gen 40:15 For indeed I was stolen away out of the land of the

  • Hebrews: and here also have I done nothing that they should put
  • me

  • into the dungeon.



  • Gen 40:16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was
  • good,

  • he said unto Joseph, I also [was] in my dream, and, behold, [I
  • had]

  • three white baskets on my head:



  • Gen 40:17 And in the uppermost basket [there was] of all manner
  • of

  • bakemeats for Pharaoh; and the birds did eat them out of the
  • basket

  • upon my head.



  • Gen 40:18 And Joseph answered and said, This [is] the
  • interpretation

  • thereof: The three baskets [are] three days:



  • Gen 40:19 Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thy head
  • from

  • off thee, and shall hang thee on a tree; and the birds shall eat
  • thy

  • flesh from off thee.



  • Gen 40:20 And it came to pass the third day, [which was]
  • Pharaoh's

  • birthday, that he made a feast unto all his servants: and he
  • lifted

  • up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his

  • servants.



  • Gen 40:21 And he restored the chief butler unto his butlership

  • again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand:



  • Gen 40:22 But he hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had
  • interpreted

  • to them.



  • Gen 40:23 Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but
  • forgat

  • him.



  • Gen 41:01 And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that

  • Pharaoh dreamed: and, behold, he stood by the river.



  • Gen 41:02 And, behold, there came up out of the river seven well

  • favoured kine and fatfleshed; and they fed in a meadow.



  • Gen 41:03 And, behold, seven other kine came up after them out of

  • the river, ill favoured and leanfleshed; and stood by the [other]

  • kine upon the brink of the river.



  • Gen 41:04 And the ill favoured and leanfleshed kine did eat up
  • the

  • seven well favoured and fat kine. So Pharaoh awoke.



  • Gen 41:05 And he slept and dreamed the second time: and, behold,

  • seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good.



  • Gen 41:06 And, behold, seven thin ears and blasted with the east

  • wind sprung up after them.



  • Gen 41:07 And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and
  • full

  • ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, [it was] a dream.



  • Gen 41:08 And it came to pass in the morning that his spirit was

  • troubled; and he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt,
  • and

  • all the wise men thereof: and Pharaoh told them his dream; but

  • [there was] none that could interpret them unto Pharaoh.



  • Gen 41:09 Then spake the chief butler unto Pharaoh, saying, I do

  • remember my faults this day:



  • Gen 41:10 Pharaoh was wroth with his servants, and put me in
  • ward in

  • the captain of the guard's house, [both] me and the chief baker:



  • Gen 41:11 And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we
  • dreamed

  • each man according to the interpretation of his dream.



  • Gen 41:12 And [there was] there with us a young man, an Hebrew,

  • servant to the captain of the guard; and we told him, and he

  • interpreted to us our dreams; to each man according to his dream
  • he

  • did interpret.



  • Gen 41:13 And it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it
  • was;

  • me he restored unto mine office, and him he hanged.



  • Gen 41:14 Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought
  • him

  • hastily out of the dungeon: and he shaved [himself], and changed
  • his

  • raiment, and came in unto Pharaoh.



  • Gen 41:15 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I have dreamed a dream,
  • and

  • [there is] none that can interpret it: and I have heard say of
  • thee,

  • [that] thou canst understand a dream to interpret it.



  • Gen 41:16 And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, [It is] not in me:

  • God shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace.



  • Gen 41:17 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I
  • stood

  • upon the bank of the river:



  • Gen 41:18 And, behold, there came up out of the river seven kine,

  • fatfleshed and well favoured; and they fed in a meadow:



  • Gen 41:19 And, behold, seven other kine came up after them, poor
  • and

  • very ill favoured and leanfleshed, such as I never saw in all the

  • land of Egypt for badness:



  • Gen 41:20 And the lean and the ill favoured kine did eat up the

  • first seven fat kine:



  • Gen 41:21 And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known

  • that they had eaten them; but they [were] still ill favoured, as
  • at

  • the beginning. So I awoke.



  • Gen 41:22 And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears came up
  • in

  • one stalk, full and good:



  • Gen 41:23 And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, [and] blasted

  • with the east wind, sprung up after them:



  • Gen 41:24 And the thin ears devoured the seven good ears: and I
  • told

  • [this] unto the magicians; but [there was] none that could
  • declare

  • [it] to me.



  • Gen 41:25 And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh [is]

  • one: God hath showed Pharaoh what he [is] about to do.



  • Gen 41:26 The seven good kine [are] seven years; and the seven
  • good

  • ears [are] seven years: the dream [is] one.



  • Gen 41:27 And the seven thin and ill favoured kine that came up

  • after them [are] seven years; and the seven empty ears blasted
  • with

  • the east wind shall be seven years of famine.



  • Gen 41:28 This [is] the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh:
  • What

  • God [is] about to do he showeth unto Pharaoh.



  • Gen 41:29 Behold, there come seven years of great plenty
  • throughout

  • all the land of Egypt:



  • Gen 41:30 And there shall arise after them seven years of famine;

  • and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt; and
  • the

  • famine shall consume the land;



  • Gen 41:31 And the plenty shall not be known in the land by
  • reason of

  • that famine following; for it [shall be] very grievous.



  • Gen 41:32 And for that the dream was doubled unto Pharaoh twice;
  • [it

  • is] because the thing [is] established by God, and God will
  • shortly

  • bring it to pass.



  • Gen 41:33 Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and

  • wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.



  • Gen 41:34 Let Pharaoh do [this], and let him appoint officers
  • over

  • the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the

  • seven plenteous years.



  • Gen 41:35 And let them gather all the food of those good years
  • that

  • come, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, and let them
  • keep

  • food in the cities.



  • Gen 41:36 And that food shall be for store to the land against
  • the

  • seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; that
  • the

  • land perish not through the famine.



  • Gen 41:37 And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in
  • the

  • eyes of all his servants.



  • Gen 41:38 And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find [such a

  • one] as this [is], a man in whom the Spirit of God [is]?



  • Gen 41:39 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath
  • showed

  • thee all this, [there is] none so discreet and wise as thou
  • [art]:



  • Gen 41:40 Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy
  • word

  • shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be
  • greater

  • than thou.



  • Gen 41:41 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over

  • all the land of Egypt.



  • Gen 41:42 And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it

  • upon Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen,
  • and

  • put a gold chain about his neck;



  • Gen 41:43 And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he

  • had; and they cried before him, Bow the knee: and he made him

  • [ruler] over all the land of Egypt.



  • Gen 41:44 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I [am] Pharaoh, and
  • without

  • thee shall no man lift up his hand or foot in all the land of
  • Egypt.



  • Gen 41:45 And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnathpaaneah; and
  • he

  • gave him to wife Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On.

  • And Joseph went out over [all] the land of Egypt.



  • Gen 41:46 And Joseph [was] thirty years old when he stood before

  • Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of

  • Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.



  • Gen 41:47 And in the seven plenteous years the earth brought
  • forth

  • by handfuls.



  • Gen 41:48 And he gathered up all the food of the seven years,
  • which

  • were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities:
  • the

  • food of the field, which [was] round about every city, laid he
  • up in

  • the same.



  • Gen 41:49 And Joseph gathered corn as the sand of the sea, very

  • much, until he left numbering; for [it was] without number.



  • Gen 41:50 And unto Joseph were born two sons before the years of

  • famine came, which Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of
  • On

  • bare unto him.



  • Gen 41:51 And Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh:
  • For

  • God, [said he], hath made me forget all my toil, and all my
  • father's

  • house.



  • Gen 41:52 And the name of the second called he Ephraim: For God
  • hath

  • caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.



  • Gen 41:53 And the seven years of plenteousness, that was in the
  • land

  • of Egypt, were ended.



  • Gen 41:54 And the seven years of dearth began to come, according
  • as

  • Joseph had said: and the dearth was in all lands; but in all the

  • land of Egypt there was bread.



  • Gen 41:55 And when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people

  • cried to Pharaoh for bread: and Pharaoh said unto all the
  • Egyptians,

  • Go unto Joseph; what he saith to you, do.



  • Gen 41:56 And the famine was over all the face of the earth: And

  • Joseph opened all the storehouses, and sold unto the Egyptians;
  • and

  • the famine waxed sore in the land of Egypt.



  • Gen 41:57 And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph for to buy

  • [corn]; because that the famine was [so] sore in all lands.



  • Gen 42:01 Now when Jacob saw that there was corn in Egypt, Jacob

  • said unto his sons, Why do ye look one upon another?



  • Gen 42:02 And he said, Behold, I have heard that there is corn in

  • Egypt: get you down thither, and buy for us from thence; that we
  • may

  • live, and not die.



  • Gen 42:03 And Joseph's ten brethren went down to buy corn in
  • Egypt.



  • Gen 42:04 But Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob sent not with his

  • brethren; for he said, Lest peradventure mischief befall him.



  • Gen 42:05 And the sons of Israel came to buy [corn] among those
  • that

  • came: for the famine was in the land of Canaan.



  • Gen 42:06 And Joseph [was] the governor over the land, [and] he
  • [it

  • was] that sold to all the people of the land: and Joseph's
  • brethren

  • came, and bowed down themselves before him [with] their faces to
  • the

  • earth.



  • Gen 42:07 And Joseph saw his brethren, and he knew them, but made

  • himself strange unto them, and spake roughly unto them; and he
  • said

  • unto them, Whence come ye? And they said, From the land of
  • Canaan to

  • buy food.



  • Gen 42:08 And Joseph knew his brethren, but they knew not him.



  • Gen 42:09 And Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed of
  • them,

  • and said unto them, Ye [are] spies; to see the nakedness of the
  • land

  • ye are come.



  • Gen 42:10 And they said unto him, Nay, my lord, but to buy food
  • are

  • thy servants come.



  • Gen 42:11 We [are] all one man's sons; we [are] true [men], thy

  • servants are no spies.



  • Gen 42:12 And he said unto them, Nay, but to see the nakedness of

  • the land ye are come.



  • Gen 42:13 And they said, Thy servants [are] twelve brethren, the

  • sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and, behold, the youngest

  • [is] this day with our father, and one [is] not.



  • Gen 42:14 And Joseph said unto them, That [is it] that I spake
  • unto

  • you, saying, Ye [are] spies:



  • Gen 42:15 Hereby ye shall be proved: By the life of Pharaoh ye
  • shall

  • not go forth hence, except your youngest brother come hither.



  • Gen 42:16 Send one of you, and let him fetch your brother, and ye

  • shall be kept in prison, that your words may be proved, whether

  • [there be any] truth in you: or else by the life of Pharaoh
  • surely

  • ye [are] spies.



  • Gen 42:17 And he put them all together into ward three days.



  • Gen 42:18 And Joseph said unto them the third day, This do, and

  • live; [for] I fear God:



  • Gen 42:19 If ye [be] true [men], let one of your brethren be
  • bound

  • in the house of your prison: go ye, carry corn for the famine of

  • your houses:



  • Gen 42:20 But bring your youngest brother unto me; so shall your

  • words be verified, and ye shall not die. And they did so.



  • Gen 42:21 And they said one to another, We [are] verily guilty

  • concerning our brother, in that we saw the anguish of his soul,
  • when

  • he besought us, and we would not hear; therefore is this distress

  • come upon us.



  • Gen 42:22 And Reuben answered them, saying, Spake I not unto you,

  • saying, Do not sin against the child; and ye would not hear?

  • therefore, behold, also his blood is required.



  • Gen 42:23 And they knew not that Joseph understood [them]; for he

  • spake unto them by an interpreter.



  • Gen 42:24 And he turned himself about from them, and wept; and

  • returned to them again, and communed with them, and took from
  • them

  • Simeon, and bound him before their eyes.



  • Gen 42:25 Then Joseph commanded to fill their sacks with corn,
  • and

  • to restore every man's money into his sack, and to give them

  • provision for the way: and thus did he unto them.



  • Gen 42:26 And they laded their asses with the corn, and departed

  • thence.



  • Gen 42:27 And as one of them opened his sack to give his ass

  • provender in the inn, he espied his money; for, behold, it [was]
  • in

  • his sack's mouth.



  • Gen 42:28 And he said unto his brethren, My money is restored;
  • and,

  • lo, [it is] even in my sack: and their heart failed [them], and
  • they

  • were afraid, saying one to another, What [is] this [that] God
  • hath

  • done unto us?



  • Gen 42:29 And they came unto Jacob their father unto the land of

  • Canaan, and told him all that befell unto them; saying,



  • Gen 42:30 The man, [who is] the lord of the land, spake roughly
  • to

  • us, and took us for spies of the country.



  • Gen 42:31 And we said unto him, We [are] true [men]; we are no

  • spies: Gen 42:32 We [be] twelve brethren, sons of our father; one

  • [is] not, and the youngest [is] this day with our father in the
  • land

  • of Canaan.



  • Gen 42:33 And the man, the lord of the country, said unto us,
  • Hereby

  • shall I know that ye [are] true [men]; leave one of your brethren

  • [here] with me, and take [food for] the famine of your
  • households,

  • and be gone:



  • Gen 42:34 And bring your youngest brother unto me: then shall I
  • know

  • that ye [are] no spies, but [that] ye [are] true [men: so] will I

  • deliver you your brother, and ye shall traffic in the land.



  • Gen 42:35 And it came to pass as they emptied their sacks, that,

  • behold, every man's bundle of money [was] in his sack: and when

  • [both] they and their father saw the bundles of money, they were

  • afraid.



  • Gen 42:36 And Jacob their father said unto them, Me have ye
  • bereaved

  • [of my children]: Joseph [is] not, and Simeon [is] not, and ye
  • will

  • take Benjamin [away]: all these things are against me.



  • Gen 42:37 And Reuben spake unto his father, saying, Slay my two

  • sons, if I bring him not to thee: deliver him into my hand, and I

  • will bring him to thee again.



  • Gen 42:38 And he said, My son shall not go down with you; for his

  • brother is dead, and he is left alone: if mischief befall him by
  • the

  • way in the which ye go, then shall ye bring down my gray hairs
  • with

  • sorrow to the grave.



  • Gen 43:01 And the famine [was] sore in the land.



  • Gen 43:02 And it came to pass, when they had eaten up the corn
  • which

  • they had brought out of Egypt, their father said unto them, Go

  • again, buy us a little food.



  • Gen 43:03 And Judah spake unto him, saying, The man did solemnly

  • protest unto us, saying, Ye shall not see my face, except your

  • brother [be] with you.



  • Gen 43:04 If thou wilt send our brother with us, we will go down
  • and

  • buy thee food:



  • Gen 43:05 But if thou wilt not send [him], we will not go down:
  • for

  • the man said unto us, Ye shall not see my face, except your
  • brother

  • [be] with you.



  • Gen 43:06 And Israel said, Wherefore dealt ye [so] ill with me,
  • [as]

  • to tell the man whether ye had yet a brother?



  • Gen 43:07 And they said, The man asked us straitly of our state,
  • and

  • of our kindred, saying, [Is] your father yet alive? have ye

  • [another] brother? and we told him according to the tenor of
  • these

  • words: could we certainly know that he would say, Bring your
  • brother

  • down?



  • Gen 43:08 And Judah said unto Israel his father, Send the lad
  • with

  • me, and we will arise and go; that we may live, and not die, both

  • we, and thou, [and] also our little ones.



  • Gen 43:09 I will be surety for him; of my hand shalt thou require

  • him: if I bring him not unto thee, and set him before thee, then
  • let

  • me bear the blame for ever:



  • Gen 43:10 For except we had lingered, surely now we had returned

  • this second time.



  • Gen 43:11 And their father Israel said unto them, If [it must
  • be] so

  • now, do this; take of the best fruits in the land in your
  • vessels,

  • and carry down the man a present, a little balm, and a little
  • honey,

  • spices, and myrrh, nuts, and almonds:



  • Gen 43:12 And take double money in your hand; and the money that
  • was

  • brought again in the mouth of your sacks, carry [it] again in
  • your

  • hand; peradventure it [was] an oversight:



  • Gen 43:13 Take also your brother, and arise, go again unto the
  • man:



  • Gen 43:14 And God Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he

  • may send away your other brother, and Benjamin. If I be bereaved
  • [of

  • my children], I am bereaved.



  • Gen 43:15 And the men took that present, and they took double
  • money

  • in their hand, and Benjamin; and rose up, and went down to Egypt,

  • and stood before Joseph.



  • Gen 43:16 And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the

  • ruler of his house, Bring [these] men home, and slay, and make

  • ready; for [these] men shall dine with me at noon.



  • Gen 43:17 And the man did as Joseph bade; and the man brought the

  • men into Joseph's house.



  • Gen 43:18 And the men were afraid, because they were brought into

  • Joseph's house; and they said, Because of the money that was

  • returned in our sacks at the first time are we brought in; that
  • he

  • may seek occasion against us, and fall upon us, and take us for

  • bondmen, and our asses.



  • Gen 43:19 And they came near to the steward of Joseph's house,
  • and

  • they communed with him at the door of the house,



  • Gen 43:20 And said, O sir, we came indeed down at the first time
  • to

  • buy food:



  • Gen 43:21 And it came to pass, when we came to the inn, that we

  • opened our sacks, and, behold, [every] man's money [was] in the

  • mouth of his sack, our money in full weight: and we have brought
  • it

  • again in our hand.



  • Gen 43:22 And other money have we brought down in our hands to
  • buy

  • food: we cannot tell who put our money in our sacks.



  • Gen 43:23 And he said, Peace [be] to you, fear not: your God, and

  • the God of your father, hath given you treasure in your sacks: I
  • had

  • your money. And he brought Simeon out unto them.



  • Gen 43:24 And the man brought the men into Joseph's house, and
  • gave

  • [them] water, and they washed their feet; and he gave their asses

  • provender.



  • Gen 43:25 And they made ready the present against Joseph came at

  • noon: for they heard that they should eat bread there.



  • Gen 43:26 And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present

  • which [was] in their hand into the house, and bowed themselves to

  • him to the earth.



  • Gen 43:27 And he asked them of [their] welfare, and said, [Is]
  • your

  • father well, the old man of whom ye spake? [Is] he yet alive?



  • Gen 43:28 And they answered, Thy servant our father [is] in good

  • health, he [is] yet alive. And they bowed down their heads, and
  • made

  • obeisance.



  • Gen 43:29 And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother
  • Benjamin,

  • his mother's son, and said, [Is] this your younger brother, of
  • whom

  • ye spake unto me? And he said, God be gracious unto thee, my son.



  • Gen 43:30 And Joseph made haste; for his bowels did yearn upon
  • his

  • brother: and he sought [where] to weep; and he entered into [his]

  • chamber, and wept there.



  • Gen 43:31 And he washed his face, and went out, and refrained

  • himself, and said, Set on bread.



  • Gen 43:32 And they set on for him by himself, and for them by

  • themselves, and for the Egyptians, which did eat with him, by

  • themselves: because the Egyptians might not eat bread with the

  • Hebrews; for that [is] an abomination unto the Egyptians.



  • Gen 43:33 And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his

  • birthright, and the youngest according to his youth: and the men

  • marvelled one at another.



  • Gen 43:34 And he took [and sent] messes unto them from before
  • him:

  • but Benjamin's mess was five times so much as any of theirs. And

  • they drank, and were merry with him.



  • Gen 44:01 And he commanded the steward of his house, saying, Fill

  • the men's sacks [with] food, as much as they can carry, and put

  • every man's money in his sack's mouth.



  • Gen 44:02 And put my cup, the silver cup, in the sack's mouth of
  • the

  • youngest, and his corn money. And he did according to the word
  • that

  • Joseph had spoken.



  • Gen 44:03 As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent
  • away,

  • they and their asses.



  • Gen 44:04 [And] when they were gone out of the city, [and] not
  • [yet]

  • far off, Joseph said unto his steward, Up, follow after the men;
  • and

  • when thou dost overtake them, say unto them, Wherefore have ye

  • rewarded evil for good?



  • Gen 44:05 [Is] not this [it] in which my lord drinketh, and
  • whereby

  • indeed he divineth? ye have done evil in so doing.



  • Gen 44:06 And he overtook them, and he spake unto them these same

  • words.



  • Gen 44:07 And they said unto him, Wherefore saith my lord these

  • words? God forbid that thy servants should do according to this

  • thing:



  • Gen 44:08 Behold, the money, which we found in our sacks' mouths,
  • we

  • brought again unto thee out of the land of Canaan: how then
  • should

  • we steal out of thy lord's house silver or gold?



  • Gen 44:09 With whomsoever of thy servants it be found, both let
  • him

  • die, and we also will be my lord's bondmen.



  • Gen 44:10 And he said, Now also [let] it [be] according unto your

  • words: he with whom it is found shall be my servant; and ye
  • shall be

  • blameless.



  • Gen 44:11 Then they speedily took down every man his sack to the

  • ground, and opened every man his sack.



  • Gen 44:12 And he searched, [and] began at the eldest, and left at

  • the youngest: and the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.



  • Gen 44:13 Then they rent their clothes, and laded every man his
  • ass,

  • and returned to the city.



  • Gen 44:14 And Judah and his brethren came to Joseph's house; for
  • he

  • [was] yet there: and they fell before him on the ground.



  • Gen 44:15 And Joseph said unto them, What deed [is] this that ye

  • have done? wot ye not that such a man as I can certainly divine?



  • Gen 44:16 And Judah said, What shall we say unto my lord? what
  • shall

  • we speak? or how shall we clear ourselves? God hath found out the

  • iniquity of thy servants: behold, we [are] my lord's servants,
  • both

  • we, and [he] also with whom the cup is found.



  • Gen 44:17 And he said, God forbid that I should do so: [but] the
  • man

  • in whose hand the cup is found, he shall be my servant; and as
  • for

  • you, get you up in peace unto your father.



  • Gen 44:18 Then Judah came near unto him, and said, Oh my lord,
  • let

  • thy servant, I pray thee, speak a word in my lord's ears, and let

  • not thine anger burn against thy servant: for thou [art] even as

  • Pharaoh.



  • Gen 44:19 My lord asked his servants, saying, Have ye a father,
  • or a

  • brother?



  • Gen 44:20 And we said unto my lord, We have a father, an old man,

  • and a child of his old age, a little one; and his brother is
  • dead,

  • and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him.



  • Gen 44:21 And thou saidst unto thy servants, Bring him down unto
  • me,

  • that I may set mine eyes upon him.



  • Gen 44:22 And we said unto my lord, The lad cannot leave his
  • father:

  • for [if] he should leave his father, [his father] would die.



  • Gen 44:23 And thou saidst unto thy servants, Except your youngest

  • brother come down with you, ye shall see my face no more.



  • Gen 44:24 And it came to pass when we came up unto thy servant my

  • father, we told him the words of my lord.



  • Gen 44:25 And our father said, Go again, [and] buy us a little
  • food.



  • Gen 44:26 And we said, We cannot go down: if our youngest
  • brother be

  • with us, then will we go down: for we may not see the man's face,

  • except our youngest brother [be] with us.



  • Gen 44:27 And thy servant my father said unto us, Ye know that my

  • wife bare me two [sons]:



  • Gen 44:28 And the one went out from me, and I said, Surely he is

  • torn in pieces; and I saw him not since:



  • Gen 44:29 And if ye take this also from me, and mischief befall
  • him,

  • ye shall bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to the grave.



  • Gen 44:30 Now therefore when I come to thy servant my father, and

  • the lad [be] not with us; seeing that his life is bound up in the

  • lad's life;



  • Gen 44:31 It shall come to pass, when he seeth that the lad [is]
  • not

  • [with us], that he will die: and thy servants shall bring down
  • the

  • gray hairs of thy servant our father with sorrow to the grave.



  • Gen 44:32 For thy servant became surety for the lad unto my
  • father,

  • saying, If I bring him not unto thee, then I shall bear the
  • blame to

  • my father for ever.



  • Gen 44:33 Now therefore, I pray thee, let thy servant abide
  • instead

  • of the lad a bondman to my lord; and let the lad go up with his

  • brethren.



  • Gen 44:34 For how shall I go up to my father, and the lad [be]
  • not

  • with me? lest peradventure I see the evil that shall come on my

  • father.



  • Gen 45:01 Then Joseph could not refrain himself before all them
  • that

  • stood by him; and he cried, Cause every man to go out from me.
  • And

  • there stood no man with him, while Joseph made himself known unto

  • his brethren.



  • Gen 45:02 And he wept aloud: and the Egyptians and the house of

  • Pharaoh heard.



  • Gen 45:03 And Joseph said unto his brethren, I [am] Joseph; doth
  • my

  • father yet live? And his brethren could not answer him; for they

  • were troubled at his presence.



  • Gen 45:04 And Joseph said unto his brethren, Come near to me, I
  • pray

  • you. And they came near. And he said, I [am] Joseph your brother,

  • whom ye sold into Egypt.



  • Gen 45:05 Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry with
  • yourselves,

  • that ye sold me hither: for God did send me before you to
  • preserve

  • life.



  • Gen 45:06 For these two years [hath] the famine [been] in the
  • land:

  • and yet [there are] five years, in the which [there shall]
  • neither

  • [be] earing nor harvest.



  • Gen 45:07 And God sent me before you to preserve you a posterity
  • in

  • the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.



  • Gen 45:08 So now [it was] not you [that] sent me hither, but God:

  • and he hath made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his
  • house,

  • and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.



  • Gen 45:09 Haste ye, and go up to my father, and say unto him,
  • Thus

  • saith thy son Joseph, God hath made me lord of all Egypt: come
  • down

  • unto me, tarry not:



  • Gen 45:10 And thou shalt dwell in the land of Goshen, and thou
  • shalt

  • be near unto me, thou, and thy children, and thy children's

  • children, and thy flocks, and thy herds, and all that thou hast:



  • Gen 45:11 And there will I nourish thee; for yet [there are] five

  • years of famine; lest thou, and thy household, and all that thou

  • hast, come to poverty.



  • Gen 45:12 And, behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother

  • Benjamin, that [it is] my mouth that speaketh unto you.



  • Gen 45:13 And ye shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt,
  • and

  • of all that ye have seen; and ye shall haste and bring down my

  • father hither.



  • Gen 45:14 And he fell upon his brother Benjamin's neck, and wept;

  • and Benjamin wept upon his neck.



  • Gen 45:15 Moreover he kissed all his brethren, and wept upon
  • them:

  • and after that his brethren talked with him.



  • Gen 45:16 And the fame thereof was heard in Pharaoh's house,
  • saying,

  • Joseph's brethren are come: and it pleased Pharaoh well, and his

  • servants.



  • Gen 45:17 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Say unto thy brethren,
  • This

  • do ye; lade your beasts, and go, get you unto the land of Canaan;



  • Gen 45:18 And take your father and your households, and come unto

  • me: and I will give you the good of the land of Egypt, and ye
  • shall

  • eat the fat of the land.



  • Gen 45:19 Now thou art commanded, this do ye; take you wagons
  • out of

  • the land of Egypt for your little ones, and for your wives, and

  • bring your father, and come.



  • Gen 45:20 Also regard not your stuff; for the good of all the
  • land

  • of Egypt [is] yours.



  • Gen 45:21 And the children of Israel did so: and Joseph gave them

  • wagons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them

  • provision for the way.



  • Gen 45:22 To all of them he gave each man changes of raiment;
  • but to

  • Benjamin he gave three hundred [pieces] of silver, and five
  • changes

  • of raiment.



  • Gen 45:23 And to his father he sent after this [manner]; ten
  • asses

  • laden with the good things of Egypt, and ten she asses laden with

  • corn and bread and meat for his father by the way.



  • Gen 45:24 So he sent his brethren away, and they departed: and he

  • said unto them, See that ye fall not out by the way.



  • Gen 45:25 And they went up out of Egypt, and came into the land
  • of

  • Canaan unto Jacob their father,



  • Gen 45:26 And told him, saying, Joseph [is] yet alive, and he
  • [is]

  • governor over all the land of Egypt. And Jacob's heart fainted,
  • for

  • he believed them not.



  • Gen 45:27 And they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had

  • said unto them: and when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent
  • to

  • carry him, the spirit of Jacob their father revived:



  • Gen 45:28 And Israel said, [It is] enough; Joseph my son [is] yet

  • alive: I will go and see him before I die.



  • Gen 46:01 And Israel took his journey with all that he had, and
  • came

  • to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices unto the God of his father

  • Isaac.



  • Gen 46:02 And God spake unto Israel in the visions of the night,
  • and

  • said, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here [am] I.



  • Gen 46:03 And he said, I [am] God, the God of thy father: fear
  • not

  • to go down into Egypt; for I will there make of thee a great
  • nation:



  • Gen 46:04 I will go down with thee into Egypt; and I will also

  • brethren, and my father's house, which [were] in the land of
  • Canaan,

  • are come unto me;



  • Gen 46:32 And the men [are] shepherds, for their trade hath been

  • Gen 46:33 And it shall come to pass, when Pharaoh shall call you,

  • Gen 46:34 That ye shall say, Thy servants' trade hath been about

  • Gen 47:05 And Pharaoh spake unto Joseph, saying, Thy father and
  • thy

  • brethren are come unto thee:



  • Gen 47:06 The land of Egypt [is] before thee; in the best of the

  • Gen 47:07 And Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him
  • before

  • Pharaoh: and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.



  • Gen 47:08 And Pharaoh said unto Jacob, How old [art] thou?



  • Gen 47:09 And Jacob said unto Pharaoh, The days of the years of

  • pilgrimage [are] an hundred and thirty years: few and evil have
  • the

  • days of the years of my life been, and have not attained unto the

  • days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their

  • pilgrimage.



  • Gen 47:10 And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from before

  • Pharaoh.



  • Gen 47:11 And Joseph placed his father and his brethren, and gave

  • them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land,
  • in

  • the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.

  • all

  • his father's household, with bread, according to [their]
  • families.



  • Gen 47:13 And [there was] no bread in all the land; for the
  • famine

  • [was] very sore, so that the land of Egypt and [all] the land of

  • Canaan fainted by reason of the famine.



  • Gen 47:14 And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in
  • the

  • land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the corn which they

  • bought: and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house.



  • Gen 47:15 And when money failed in the land of Egypt, and in the

  • land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came unto Joseph, and said,
  • Give

  • us bread: for why should we die in thy presence? for the money

  • faileth.



  • Gen 47:16 And Joseph said, Give your cattle; and I will give you
  • for

  • your cattle, if money fail.



  • Gen 47:17 And they brought their cattle unto Joseph: and Joseph
  • gave

  • them bread [in exchange] for horses, and for the flocks, and for
  • the

  • cattle of the herds, and for the asses: and he fed them with
  • bread

  • for all their cattle for that year.



  • Gen 47:18 When that year was ended, they came unto him the second

  • year, and said unto him, We will not hide [it] from my lord, how

  • that our money is spent; my lord also hath our herds of cattle;

  • there is not ought left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies,
  • and

  • our lands:



  • Gen 47:19 Wherefore shall we die before thine eyes, both we and
  • our

  • land? buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be

  • servants unto Pharaoh: and give [us] seed, that we may live, and
  • not

  • die, that the land be not desolate.



  • Gen 47:20 And Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh;
  • for

  • the Egyptians sold every man his field, because the famine
  • prevailed

  • over them: so the land became Pharaoh's.



  • Gen 47:21 And as for the people, he removed them to cities from

  • [one] end of the borders of Egypt even to the [other] end
  • thereof.



  • Gen 47:22 Only the land of the priests bought he not; for the

  • priests had a portion [assigned them] of Pharaoh, and did eat
  • their

  • portion which Pharaoh gave them: wherefore they sold not their

  • lands.



  • Gen 47:23 Then Joseph said unto the people, Behold, I have bought

  • you this day and your land for Pharaoh: lo, [here is] seed for
  • you,

  • and ye shall sow the land.



  • Gen 47:24 And it shall come to pass in the increase, that ye
  • shall

  • give the fifth [part] unto Pharaoh, and four parts shall be your

  • own, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for them of
  • your

  • households, and for food for your little ones.



  • Gen 47:25 And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find

  • grace in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh's servants.



  • Gen 47:26 And Joseph made it a law over the land of Egypt unto
  • this

  • day, [that] Pharaoh should have the fifth [part]; except the
  • land of

  • the priests only, [which] became not Pharaoh's.



  • Gen 47:27 And Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt, in the country
  • of

  • Goshen; and they had possessions therein, and grew, and
  • multiplied

  • exceedingly.



  • Gen 47:28 And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years:
  • so

  • the whole age of Jacob was an hundred forty and seven years.



  • Gen 47:29 And the time drew nigh that Israel must die: and he
  • called

  • his son Joseph, and said unto him, If now I have found grace in
  • thy

  • sight, put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh, and deal kindly

  • and truly with me; bury me not, I pray thee, in Egypt:



  • Gen 47:30 But I will lie with my fathers, and thou shalt carry me

  • out of Egypt, and bury me in their buryingplace. And he said, I
  • will

  • do as thou hast said.



  • Gen 47:31 And he said, Swear unto me. And he sware unto him. And

  • Israel bowed himself upon the bed's head.



  • Gen 48:01 And it came to pass after these things, that [one] told

  • Joseph, Behold, thy father [is] sick: and he took with him his
  • two

  • sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.



  • Gen 48:02 And [one] told Jacob, and said, Behold, thy son Joseph

  • cometh unto thee: and Israel strengthened himself, and sat upon
  • the

  • bed.



  • Gen 48:03 And Jacob said unto Joseph, God Almighty appeared unto
  • me

  • at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me,



  • Gen 48:04 And said unto me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful,
  • and

  • multiply thee, and I will make of thee a multitude of people; and

  • will give this land to thy seed after thee [for] an everlasting

  • possession.



  • Gen 48:05 And now thy two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, which were

  • born unto thee in the land of Egypt before I came unto thee into

  • Egypt, [are] mine; as Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine.



  • Gen 48:06 And thy issue, which thou begettest after them, shall
  • be

  • thine, [and] shall be called after the name of their brethren in

  • their inheritance.



  • Gen 48:07 And as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died by
  • me

  • in the land of Canaan in the way, when yet [there was] but a
  • little

  • way to come unto Ephrath: and I buried her there in the way of

  • Ephrath; the same [is] Bethlehem.



  • Gen 48:08 And Israel beheld Joseph's sons, and said, Who [are]

  • these?



  • Gen 48:09 And Joseph said unto his father, They [are] my sons,
  • whom

  • God hath given me in this [place]. And he said, Bring them, I
  • pray

  • thee, unto me, and I will bless them.



  • Gen 48:10 Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, [so that] he

  • could not see. And he brought them near unto him; and he kissed

  • them, and embraced them.



  • Gen 48:11 And Israel said unto Joseph, I had not thought to see
  • thy

  • face: and, lo, God hath showed me also thy seed.



  • Gen 48:12 And Joseph brought them out from between his knees,
  • and he

  • bowed himself with his face to the earth.



  • Gen 48:13 And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand

  • toward Israel's left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward

  • Israel's right hand, and brought [them] near unto him.



  • Gen 48:14 And Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid [it]

  • upon Ephraim's head, who [was] the younger, and his left hand
  • upon

  • Manasseh's head, guiding his hands wittingly; for Manasseh [was]
  • the

  • firstborn.



  • Gen 48:15 And he blessed Joseph, and said, God, before whom my

  • fathers Abraham and Isaac did walk, the God which fed me all my
  • life

  • long unto this day,



  • Gen 48:16 The Angel which redeemed me from all evil, bless the
  • lads;

  • and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers
  • Abraham

  • and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the

  • earth.



  • Gen 48:17 And when Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand

  • upon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him: and he held up his

  • father's hand, to remove it from Ephraim's head unto Manasseh's

  • head.



  • Gen 48:18 And Joseph said unto his father, Not so, my father: for

  • this [is] the firstborn; put thy right hand upon his head.



  • Gen 48:19 And his father refused, and said, I know [it], my son,
  • I

  • know [it]: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be

  • great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he,
  • and

  • his seed shall become a multitude of nations.



  • Gen 48:20 And he blessed them that day, saying, In thee shall
  • Israel

  • bless, saying, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh: and he
  • set

  • Ephraim before Manasseh.



  • Gen 48:21 And Israel said unto Joseph, Behold, I die: but God
  • shall

  • be with you, and bring you again unto the land of your fathers.



  • Gen 48:22 Moreover I have given to thee one portion above thy

  • brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my
  • sword

  • and with my bow.



  • Gen 49:01 And Jacob called unto his sons, and said, Gather

  • yourselves together, that I may tell you [that] which shall
  • befall

  • you in the last days.



  • Gen 49:02 Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob;

  • and hearken unto Israel your father.



  • Gen 49:03 Reuben, thou [art] my firstborn, my might, and the

  • beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the

  • excellency of power:



  • Gen 49:04 Unstable as water, thou shalt not excel; because thou

  • wentest up to thy father's bed; then defiledst thou [it]: he
  • went up

  • to my couch.



  • Gen 49:05 Simeon and Levi [are] brethren; instruments of cruelty

  • [are in] their habitations.



  • Gen 49:06 O my soul, come not thou into their secret; unto their

  • assembly, mine honour, be not thou united: for in their anger
  • they

  • slew a man, and in their selfwill they digged down a wall.



  • Gen 49:07 Cursed [be] their anger, for [it was] fierce; and their

  • wrath, for it was cruel: I will divide them in Jacob, and scatter

  • them in Israel.



  • Gen 49:08 Judah, thou [art he] whom thy brethren shall praise:
  • thy

  • hand [shall be] in the neck of thine enemies; thy father's
  • children

  • shall bow down before thee.



  • Gen 49:09 Judah [is] a lion's whelp: from the prey, my son, thou
  • art

  • gone up: he stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as an old
  • lion;

  • who shall rouse him up?



  • Gen 49:10 The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver

  • from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him [shall]
  • the

  • gathering of the people [be].



  • Gen 49:11 Binding his foal unto the vine, and his ass's colt unto

  • the choice vine; he washed his garments in wine, and his clothes
  • in

  • the blood of grapes:



  • Gen 49:12 His eyes [shall be] red with wine, and his teeth white

  • with milk.



  • Gen 49:13 Zebulun shall dwell at the haven of the sea; and he
  • [shall

  • be] for an haven of ships; and his border [shall be] unto Zidon.



  • Gen 49:14 Issachar [is] a strong ass couching down between two

  • burdens:



  • Gen 49:15 And he saw that rest [was] good, and the land that [it

  • was] pleasant; and bowed his shoulder to bear, and became a
  • servant

  • unto tribute.



  • Gen 49:16 Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of

  • Israel.



  • Gen 49:17 Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the
  • path,

  • that biteth the horse heels, so that his rider shall fall
  • backward.



  • Gen 49:18 I have waited for thy salvation, O LORD.



  • Gen 49:19 Gad, a troop shall overcome him: but he shall overcome
  • at

  • the last.



  • Gen 49:20 Out of Asher his bread [shall be] fat, and he shall
  • yield

  • royal dainties.



  • Gen 49:21 Naphtali [is] a hind let loose: he giveth goodly words.



  • Gen 49:22 Joseph [is] a fruitful bough, [even] a fruitful bough
  • by a

  • well; [whose] branches run over the wall:



  • Gen 49:23 The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot [at him],

  • and hated him:



  • Gen 49:24 But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his
  • hands

  • were made strong by the hands of the mighty [God] of Jacob; (from

  • thence [is] the shepherd, the stone of Israel:) Gen 49:25 [Even]
  • by

  • the God of thy father, who shall help thee; and by the Almighty,
  • who

  • shall bless thee with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the

  • deep that lieth under, blessings of the breasts, and of the womb:



  • Gen 49:26 The blessings of thy father have prevailed above the

  • blessings of my progenitors unto the utmost bound of the
  • everlasting

  • hills: they shall be on the head of Joseph, and on the crown of
  • the

  • head of him that was separate from his brethren.



  • Gen 49:27 Benjamin shall ravin [as] a wolf: in the morning he
  • shall

  • devour the prey, and at night he shall divide the spoil.



  • Gen 49:28 All these [are] the twelve tribes of Israel: and this
  • [is

  • it] that their father spake unto them, and blessed them; every
  • one

  • according to his blessing he blessed them.



  • Gen 49:29 And he charged them, and said unto them, I am to be

  • gathered unto my people: bury me with my fathers in the cave that

  • [is] in the field of Ephron the Hittite,



  • Gen 49:30 In the cave that [is] in the field of Machpelah, which

  • [is] before Mamre, in the land of Canaan, which Abraham bought
  • with

  • the field of Ephron the Hittite for a possession of a
  • buryingplace.



  • Gen 49:31 There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there
  • they

  • buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife; and there I buried Leah.



  • Gen 49:32 The purchase of the field and of the cave that [is]

  • therein [was] from the children of Heth.



  • Gen 49:33 And when Jacob had made an end of commanding his sons,
  • he

  • gathered up his feet into the bed, and yielded up the ghost, and
  • was

  • gathered unto his people.



  • Gen 50:01 And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept upon
  • him,

  • and kissed him.



  • Gen 50:02 And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to
  • embalm

  • his father: and the physicians embalmed Israel.



  • Gen 50:03 And forty days were fulfilled for him; for so are

  • fulfilled the days of those which are embalmed: and the Egyptians

  • mourned for him threescore and ten days.



  • Gen 50:04 And when the days of his mourning were past, Joseph
  • spake

  • unto the house of Pharaoh, saying, If now I have found grace in
  • your

  • eyes, speak, I pray you, in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,



  • Gen 50:05 My father made me swear, saying, Lo, I die: in my grave

  • which I have digged for me in the land of Canaan, there shalt
  • thou

  • bury me. Now therefore let me go up, I pray thee, and bury my

  • father, and I will come again.



  • Gen 50:06 And Pharaoh said, Go up, and bury thy father,
  • according as

  • he made thee swear.



  • Gen 50:07 And Joseph went up to bury his father: and with him
  • went

  • up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, and all
  • the

  • elders of the land of Egypt,



  • Gen 50:08 And all the house of Joseph, and his brethren, and his

  • father's house: only their little ones, and their flocks, and
  • their

  • herds, they left in the land of Goshen.



  • Gen 50:09 And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen:
  • and

  • it was a very great company.



  • Gen 50:10 And they came to the threshingfloor of Atad, which [is]

  • beyond Jordan, and there they mourned with a great and very sore

  • lamentation: and he made a mourning for his father seven days.



  • Gen 50:11 And when the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites,
  • saw

  • the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said, This [is] a
  • grievous

  • mourning to the Egyptians: wherefore the name of it was called

  • Abelmizraim, which [is] beyond Jordan.



  • Gen 50:12 And his sons did unto him according as he commanded
  • them:



  • Gen 50:13 For his sons carried him into the land of Canaan, and

  • buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah, which Abraham

  • bought with the field for a possession of a buryingplace of
  • Ephron

  • the Hittite, before Mamre.



  • Gen 50:14 And Joseph returned into Egypt, he, and his brethren,
  • and

  • all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried

  • his father.



  • Gen 50:15 And when Joseph's brethren saw that their father was
  • dead,

  • they said, Joseph will peradventure hate us, and will certainly

  • requite us all the evil which we did unto him.



  • Gen 50:16 And they sent a messenger unto Joseph, saying, Thy
  • father

  • did command before he died, saying,



  • Gen 50:17 So shall ye say unto Joseph, Forgive, I pray thee now,
  • the

  • trespass of thy brethren, and their sin; for they did unto thee

  • evil: and now, we pray thee, forgive the trespass of the
  • servants of

  • the God of thy father. And Joseph wept when they spake unto him.



  • Gen 50:18 And his brethren also went and fell down before his
  • face;

  • and they said, Behold, we [be] thy servants.



  • Gen 50:19 And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for [am] I in the

  • place of God?



  • Gen 50:20 But as for you, ye thought evil against me; [but] God

  • meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as [it is] this day, to
  • save

  • much people alive.



  • Gen 50:21 Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your

  • little ones. And he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them.



  • Gen 50:22 And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he, and his father's house:
  • and

  • Joseph lived an hundred and ten years.



  • Gen 50:23 And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third

  • [generation]: the children also of Machir the son of Manasseh
  • were

  • brought up upon Joseph's knees.



  • Gen 50:24 And Joseph said unto his brethren, I die: and God will

  • surely visit you, and bring you out of this land unto the land
  • which

  • he sware to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.



  • Gen 50:25 And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel,
  • saying,

  • God will surely visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones from

  • hence.



  • Gen 50:26 So Joseph died, [being] an hundred and ten years old:
  • and

  • they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.
