Ge11 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth
Ge12 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
Ge13 And God said Let there be light and there was light
Ge14 And God saw the light that it was good and God divided the light from the darkness
Ge15 And God called the light Day and the darkness he called Night And the evening and the morning were the first day
Ge16 And God said Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters and let it divide the waters from the waters
Ge17 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
Ge18 And God called the firmament Heaven And the evening and the morning were the second day
Ge19 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
Ge110 And God called the dry land Earth and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas and God saw that it was good
Ge111 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
Ge112 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
Ge113 And the evening and the morning were the third day
Ge114 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
Ge115 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth and it was so
Ge116 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
Ge117 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth
Ge118 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
Ge119 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day
Ge120 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
Ge121 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
Ge122 And God blessed them saying Be fruitful and multiply and fill the waters in the seas and let fowl multiply in the earth
Ge123 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day
Ge124 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
Ge125 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
Ge126 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
Ge127 So God created man in his own image in the image of God created he him male and female created he them
Ge128 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
Ge129 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
Ge130 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
Ge131 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
Ge21 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished and all the host of them
Ge22 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
Ge23 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
Ge24 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
Ge25 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
Ge26 But there went up a mist from the earth and watered the whole face of the ground
Ge27 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
Ge28 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden and there he put the man whom he had formed
Ge29 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
Ge210 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden and from thence it was parted and became into four heads
Ge211 The name of the first is Pison that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah where there is gold
Ge212 And the gold of that land is good there is bdellium and the onyx stone
Ge213 And the name of the second river is Gihon the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia
Ge214 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
Ge215 And the LORD God took the man and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it
Ge216 And the LORD God commanded the man saying Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat
Ge217 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
Ge218 And the LORD God said It is not good that the man should be alone I will make him an help meet for him
Ge219 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
Ge220 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
Ge221 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
Ge222 And the rib which the LORD God had taken from man made he a woman and brought her unto the man
Ge223 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
Ge224 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother and shall cleave unto his wife and they shall be one flesh
Ge225 And they were both naked the man and his wife and were not ashamed
Ge31 Now the serpent was more subtil 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?
Ge32 And the woman said unto the serpent We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden
Ge33 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
Ge34 And the serpent said unto the woman Ye shall not surely die
Ge35 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
Ge36 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
Ge37 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
Ge38 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
Ge39 And the LORD God called unto Adam and said unto him Where art thou?
Ge310 And he said I heard thy voice in the garden and I was afraid because I was naked and I hid myself
Ge311 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?
Ge312 And the man said The woman whom thou gavest to be with me she gave me of the tree and I did eat
Ge313 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
Ge314 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
Ge315 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
Ge316 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
Ge317 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
Ge318 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee and thou shalt eat the herb of the field
Ge319 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
Ge320 And Adam called his wifes name Eve because she was the mother of all living
Ge321 Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins and clothed them
Ge322 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
Ge323 Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden to till the ground from whence he was taken
Ge324 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
Ge41 And Adam knew Eve his wife and she conceived and bare Cain and said I have gotten a man from the LORD
Ge42 And she again bare his brother Abel And Abel was a keeper of sheep but Cain was a tiller of the ground
Ge43 And in process of time it came to pass that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD
Ge44 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
Ge45 But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect And Cain was very wroth and his countenance fell
Ge46 And the LORD said unto Cain Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?
Ge47 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
Ge48 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
Ge49 And the LORD said unto Cain Where is Abel thy brother? And he said I know not Am I my brothers keeper?
Ge410 And he said What hast thou done? the voice of thy brothers blood crieth unto me from the ground
Ge411 And now art thou cursed from the earth which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brothers blood from thy hand
Ge412 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
Ge413 And Cain said unto the LORD My punishment is greater than I can bear
Ge414 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
Ge415 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
Ge416 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD and dwelt in the land of Nod on the east of Eden
Ge417 And Cain knew his wife and she conceived and bare Enoch and he builded a city and called the name of the city after the name of his son Enoch
Ge418 And unto Enoch was born Irad and Irad begat Mehujael and Mehujael begat Methusael and Methusael begat Lamech
Ge419 And Lamech took unto him two wives the name of the one was Adah and the name of the other Zillah
Ge420 And Adah bare Jabal he was the father of such as dwell in tents and of such as have cattle
Ge421 And his brothers name was Jubal he was the father of all such as handle the harp and organ
Ge422 And Zillah she also bare Tubalcain an instructer of every artificer in brass and iron and the sister of Tubalcain was Naamah
Ge423 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
Ge424 If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold
Ge425 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
Ge426 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
Ge51 This is the book of the generations of Adam In the day that God created man in the likeness of God made he him
Ge52 Male and female created he them and blessed them and called their name Adam in the day when they were created
Ge53 And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years and begat a son in his own likeness after his image and called his name Seth
Ge54 And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years and he begat sons and daughters
Ge55 And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years and he died
Ge56 And Seth lived an hundred and five years and begat Enos
Ge57 And Seth lived after he begat Enos eight hundred and seven years and begat sons and daughters
Ge58 And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years and he died
Ge59 And Enos lived ninety years and begat Cainan
Ge510 And Enos lived after he begat Cainan eight hundred and fifteen years and begat sons and daughters
Ge511 And all the days of Enos were nine hundred and five years and he died
Ge512 And Cainan lived seventy years and begat Mahalaleel
Ge513 And Cainan lived after he begat Mahalaleel eight hundred and forty years and begat sons and daughters
Ge514 And all the days of Cainan were nine hundred and ten years and he died
Ge515 And Mahalaleel lived sixty and five years and begat Jared
Ge516 And Mahalaleel lived after he begat Jared eight hundred and thirty years and begat sons and daughters
Ge517 And all the days of Mahalaleel were eight hundred ninety and five years and he died
Ge518 And Jared lived an hundred sixty and two years and he begat Enoch
Ge519 And Jared lived after he begat Enoch eight hundred years and begat sons and daughters
Ge520 And all the days of Jared were nine hundred sixty and two years and he died
Ge521 And Enoch lived sixty and five years and begat Methuselah
Ge522 And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years and begat sons and daughters
Ge523 And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years
Ge524 And Enoch walked with God and he was not for God took him
Ge525 And Methuselah lived an hundred eighty and seven years and begat Lamech
Ge526 And Methuselah lived after he begat Lamech seven hundred eighty and two years and begat sons and daughters
Ge527 And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years and he died
Ge528 And Lamech lived an hundred eighty and two years and begat a son
Ge529 And he called his name Noah saying This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands because of the ground which the LORD hath cursed
Ge530 And Lamech lived after he begat Noah five hundred ninety and five years and begat sons and daughters
Ge531 And all the days of Lamech were seven hundred seventy and seven years and he died
Ge532 And Noah was five hundred years old and Noah begat Shem Ham and Japheth
Ge61 And it came to pass when men began to multiply on the face of the earth and daughters were born unto them
Ge62 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair and they took them wives of all which they chose
Ge63 And the LORD said My spirit shall not always strive with man for that he also is flesh yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years
Ge64 There were giants in the earth in those days and also after that when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men and they bare children to them the same became mighty men which were of old men of renown
Ge65 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually
Ge66 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth and it grieved him at his heart
Ge67 And the LORD said I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth both man and beast and the creeping thing and the fowls of the air for it repenteth me that I have made them
Ge68 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD
Ge69 These are the generations of Noah Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations and Noah walked with God
Ge610 And Noah begat three sons Shem Ham and Japheth
Ge611 The earth also was corrupt before God and the earth was filled with violence
Ge612 And God looked upon the earth and behold it was corrupt for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth
Ge613 And God said unto Noah The end of all flesh is come before me for the earth is filled with violence through them and behold I will destroy them with the earth
Ge614 Make thee an ark of gopher wood rooms shalt thou make in the ark and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch
Ge615 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
Ge616 A window shalt thou make to the ark and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof with lower second and third stories shalt thou make it
Ge617 And behold I even I do bring a flood of waters upon the earth to destroy all flesh wherein is the breath of life from under heaven and every thing that is in the earth shall die
Ge618 But with thee will I establish my covenant and thou shalt come into the ark thou and thy sons and thy wife and thy sons wives with thee
Ge619 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
Ge620 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
Ge621 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
Ge622 Thus did Noah according to all that God commanded him so did he
Ge71 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
Ge72 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
Ge73 Of fowls also of the air by sevens the male and the female to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth
Ge74 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
Ge75 And Noah did according unto all that the LORD commanded him
Ge76 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth
Ge77 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
Ge78 Of clean beasts and of beasts that are not clean and of fowls and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth
Ge79 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark the male and the female as God had commanded Noah
Ge710 And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood were upon the earth
Ge711 In the six hundredth year of Noahs 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
Ge712 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights
Ge713 In the selfsame day entered Noah and Shem and Ham and Japheth the sons of Noah and Noahs wife and the three wives of his sons with them into the ark
Ge714 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
Ge715 And they went in unto Noah into the ark two and two of all flesh wherein is the breath of life
Ge716 And they that went in went in male and female of all flesh as God had commanded him and the LORD shut him in
Ge717 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
Ge718 And the waters prevailed and were increased greatly upon the earth and the ark went upon the face of the waters
Ge719 And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth and all the high hills that were under the whole heaven were covered
Ge720 Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail and the mountains were covered
Ge721 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
Ge722 All in whose nostrils was the breath of life of all that was in the dry land died
Ge723 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
Ge724 And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days
Ge81 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
Ge82 The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped and the rain from heaven was restrained
Ge83 And the waters returned from off the earth continually and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were abated
Ge84 And the ark rested in the seventh month on the seventeenth day of the month upon the mountains of Ararat
Ge85 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
Ge86 And it came to pass at the end of forty days that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made
Ge87 And he sent forth a raven which went forth to and fro until the waters were dried up from off the earth
Ge88 Also he sent forth a dove from him to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground
Ge89 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
Ge810 And he stayed yet other seven days and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark
Ge811 And the dove came in to him in the evening and lo in her mouth was an olive leaf pluckt off so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth
Ge812 And he stayed yet other seven days and sent forth the dove which returned not again unto him any more
Ge813 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
Ge814 And in the second month on the seven and twentieth day of the month was the earth dried
Ge815 And God spake unto Noah saying
Ge816 Go forth of the ark thou and thy wife and thy sons and thy sons wives with thee
Ge817 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
Ge818 And Noah went forth and his sons and his wife and his sons wives with him
Ge819 Every beast every creeping thing and every fowl and whatsoever creepeth upon the earth after their kinds went forth out of the ark
Ge820 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
Ge821 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour and the LORD said in his heart I will not again curse the ground any more for mans sake for the imagination of mans heart is evil from his youth neither will I again smite any more every thing living as I have done
Ge822 While the earth remaineth seedtime and harvest and cold and heat and summer and winter and day and night shall not cease
Ge91 And God blessed Noah and his sons and said unto them Be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth
Ge92 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
Ge93 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you even as the green herb have I given you all things
Ge94 But flesh with the life thereof which is the blood thereof shall ye not eat
Ge95 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 mans brother will I require the life of man
Ge96 Whoso sheddeth mans blood by man shall his blood be shed for in the image of God made he man
Ge97 And you be ye fruitful and multiply bring forth abundantly in the earth and multiply therein
Ge98 And God spake unto Noah and to his sons with him saying
Ge99 And I behold I establish my covenant with you and with your seed after you
Ge910 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
Ge911 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
Ge912 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
Ge913 I do set my bow in the cloud and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth
Ge914 And it shall come to pass when I bring a cloud over the earth that the bow shall be seen in the cloud
Ge915 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
Ge916 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
Ge917 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
Ge918 And the sons of Noah that went forth of the ark were Shem and Ham and Japheth and Ham is the father of Canaan
Ge919 These are the three sons of Noah and of them was the whole earth overspread
Ge920 And Noah began to be an husbandman and he planted a vineyard
Ge921 And he drank of the wine and was drunken and he was uncovered within his tent
Ge922 And Ham the father of Canaan saw the nakedness of his father and told his two brethren without
Ge923 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 fathers nakedness
Ge924 And Noah awoke from his wine and knew what his younger son had done unto him
Ge925 And he said Cursed be Canaan a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren
Ge926 And he said Blessed be the LORD God of Shem and Canaan shall be his servant
Ge927 God shall enlarge Japheth and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem and Canaan shall be his servant
Ge928 And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years
Ge929 And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years and he died
Ge101 Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah Shem Ham and Japheth and unto them were sons born after the flood
Ge102 The sons of Japheth Gomer and Magog and Madai and Javan and Tubal and Meshech and Tiras
Ge103 And the sons of Gomer Ashkenaz and Riphath and Togarmah
Ge104 And the sons of Javan Elishah and Tarshish Kittim and Dodanim

Ge106 And the sons of Ham Cush and Mizraim and Phut and Canaan
Ge107 And the sons of Cush Seba and Havilah and Sabtah and Raamah and Sabtechah and the sons of Raamah Sheba and Dedan
Ge108 And Cush begat Nimrod he began to be a mighty one in the earth
Ge109 He was a mighty hunter before the LORD wherefore it is said Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD
Ge1010 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel and Erech and Accad and Calneh in the land of Shinar
Ge1011 Out of that land went forth Asshur and builded Nineveh and the city Rehoboth and Calah
Ge1012 And Resen between Nineveh and Calah the same is a great city
Ge1013 And Mizraim begat Ludim and Anamim and Lehabim and Naphtuhim
Ge1014 And Pathrusim and Casluhim (out of whom came Philistim) and Caphtorim
Ge1015 And Canaan begat Sidon his first born and Heth
Ge1016 And the Jebusite and the Amorite and the Girgasite
Ge1017 And the Hivite and the Arkite and the Sinite
Ge1018 And the Arvadite and the Zemarite and the Hamathite and afterward were the families of the Canaanites spread abroad
Ge1019 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
Ge1020 These are the sons of Ham after their families after their tongues in their countries and in their nations
Ge1021 Unto Shem also the father of all the children of Eber the brother of Japheth the elder even to him were children born
Ge1022 The children of Shem Elam and Asshur and Arphaxad and Lud and Aram
Ge1023 And the children of Aram Uz and Hul and Gether and Mash
Ge1024 And Arphaxad begat Salah and Salah begat Eber
Ge1025 And unto Eber were born two sons the name of one was Peleg for in his days was the earth divided and his brothers name was Joktan

Ge1027 And Hadoram and Uzal and Diklah
Ge1028 And Obal and Abimael and Sheba
Ge1029 And Ophir and Havilah and Jobab all these were the sons of Joktan
Ge1030 And their dwelling was from Mesha as thou goest unto Sephar a mount of the east
Ge1031 These are the sons of Shem after their families after their tongues in their lands after their nations
Ge1032 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
Ge111 And the whole earth was of one language and of one speech
Ge112 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
Ge113 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 morter
Ge114 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
Ge115 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower which the children of men builded
Ge116 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
Ge117 Go to let us go down and there confound their language that they may not understand one anothers speech
Ge118 So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth and they left off to build the city
Ge119 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
Ge1110 These are the generations of Shem Shem was an hundred years old and begat Arphaxad two years after the flood
Ge1111 And Shem lived after he begat Arphaxad five hundred years and begat sons and daughters
Ge1112 And Arphaxad lived five and thirty years and begat Salah
Ge1113 And Arphaxad lived after he begat Salah four hundred and three years and begat sons and daughters
Ge1114 And Salah lived thirty years and begat Eber
Ge1115 And Salah lived after he begat Eber four hundred and three years and begat sons and daughters
Ge1116 And Eber lived four and thirty years and begat Peleg
Ge1117 And Eber lived after he begat Peleg four hundred and thirty years and begat sons and daughters
Ge1118 And Peleg lived thirty years and begat Reu
Ge1119 And Peleg lived after he begat Reu two hundred and nine years and begat sons and daughters
Ge1120 And Reu lived two and thirty years and begat Serug
Ge1121 And Reu lived after he begat Serug two hundred and seven years and begat sons and daughters
Ge1122 And Serug lived thirty years and begat Nahor
Ge1123 And Serug lived after he begat Nahor two hundred years and begat sons and daughters
Ge1124 And Nahor lived nine and twenty years and begat Terah
Ge1125 And Nahor lived after he begat Terah an hundred and nineteen years and begat sons and daughters
Ge1126 And Terah lived seventy years and begat Abram Nahor and Haran
Ge1127 Now these are the generations of Terah Terah begat Abram Nahor and Haran and Haran begat Lot
Ge1128 And Haran died before his father Terah in the land of his nativity in Ur of the Chaldees
Ge1129 And Abram and Nahor took them wives the name of Abrams wife was Sarai and the name of Nahors wife Milcah the daughter of Haran the father of Milcah and the father of Iscah
Ge1130 But Sarai was barren she had no child
Ge1131 And Terah took Abram his son and Lot the son of Haran his sons son and Sarai his daughter in law his son Abrams 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
Ge1132 And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years and Terah died in Haran
Ge121 Now the LORD had said unto Abram Get thee out of thy country and from thy kindred and from thy fathers house unto a land that I will shew thee
Ge122 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
Ge123 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
Ge124 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
Ge125 And Abram took Sarai his wife and Lot his brothers 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
Ge126 And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Sichem unto the plain of Moreh And the Canaanite was then in the land
Ge127 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
Ge128 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
Ge129 And Abram journeyed going on still toward the south
Ge1210 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
Ge1211 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
Ge1212 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
Ge1213 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
Ge1214 And it came to pass that when Abram was come into Egypt the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair
Ge1215 The princes also of Pharaoh saw her and commended her before Pharaoh and the woman was taken into Pharaohs house
Ge1216 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
Ge1217 And the LORD plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai Abrams wife
Ge1218 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?
Ge1219 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
Ge1220 And Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him and they sent him away and his wife and all that he had
Ge131 And Abram went up out of Egypt he and his wife and all that he had and Lot with him into the south
Ge132 And Abram was very rich in cattle in silver and in gold
Ge133 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
Ge134 Unto the place of the altar which he had made there at the first and there Abram called on the name of the LORD
Ge135 And Lot also which went with Abram had flocks and herds and tents
Ge136 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
Ge137 And there was a strife between the herdmen of Abrams cattle and the herdmen of Lots cattle and the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelled then in the land
Ge138 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
Ge139 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
Ge1310 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
Ge1311 Then Lot chose him all the plain of Jordan and Lot journeyed east and they separated themselves the one from the other
Ge1312 Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain and pitched his tent toward Sodom
Ge1313 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly
Ge1314 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
Ge1315 For all the land which thou seest to thee will I give it and to thy seed for ever
Ge1316 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
Ge1317 Arise walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it for I will give it unto thee
Ge1318 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
Ge141 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
Ge142 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
Ge143 All these were joined together in the vale of Siddim which is the salt sea
Ge144 Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer and in the thirteenth year they rebelled
Ge145 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
Ge146 And the Horites in their mount Seir unto Elparan which is by the wilderness
Ge147 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
Ge148 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
Ge149 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
Ge1410 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
Ge1411 And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah and all their victuals and went their way
Ge1412 And they took Lot Abrams brothers son who dwelt in Sodom and his goods and departed
Ge1413 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
Ge1414 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
Ge1415 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
Ge1416 And he brought back all the goods and also brought again his brother Lot and his goods and the women also and the people
Ge1417 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 kings dale
Ge1418 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine and he was the priest of the most high God
Ge1419 And he blessed him and said Blessed be Abram of the most high God possessor of heaven and earth
Ge1420 And blessed be the most high God which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand And he gave him tithes of all
Ge1421 And the king of Sodom said unto Abram Give me the persons and take the goods to thyself
Ge1422 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
Ge1423 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
Ge1424 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
Ge151 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
Ge152 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?
Ge153 And Abram said Behold to me thou hast given no seed and lo one born in my house is mine heir
Ge154 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
Ge155 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
Ge156 And he believed in the LORD and he counted it to him for righteousness
Ge157 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
Ge158 And he said LORD God whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?
Ge159 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
Ge1510 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
Ge1511 And when the fowls came down upon the carcases Abram drove them away
Ge1512 And when the sun was going down a deep sleep fell upon Abram and lo an horror of great darkness fell upon him
Ge1513 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
Ge1514 And also that nation whom they shall serve will I judge and afterward shall they come out with great substance
Ge1515 And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace thou shalt be buried in a good old age
Ge1516 But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full
Ge1517 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
Ge1518 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
Ge1519 The Kenites and the Kenizzites and the Kadmonites
Ge1520 And the Hittites and the Perizzites and the Rephaims
Ge1521 And the Amorites and the Canaanites and the Girgashites and the Jebusites
Ge161 Now Sarai Abrams wife bare him no children and she had an handmaid an Egyptian whose name was Hagar
Ge162 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
Ge163 And Sarai Abrams 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
Ge164 And he went in unto Hagar and she conceived and when she saw that she had conceived her mistress was despised in her eyes
Ge165 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
Ge166 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
Ge167 And the angel of the LORD found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness by the fountain in the way to Shur
Ge168 And he said Hagar Sarais maid whence camest thou? and whither wilt thou go? And she said I flee from the face of my mistress Sarai
Ge169 And the angel of the LORD said unto her Return to thy mistress and submit thyself under her hands
Ge1610 And the angel of the LORD said unto her I will multiply thy seed exceedingly that it shall not be numbered for multitude
Ge1611 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
Ge1612 And he will be a wild man his hand will be against every man and every mans hand against him and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren
Ge1613 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?
Ge1614 Wherefore the well was called Beerlahairoi behold it is between Kadesh and Bered
Ge1615 And Hagar bare Abram a son and Abram called his sons name which Hagar bare Ishmael
Ge1616 And Abram was fourscore and six years old when Hagar bare Ishmael to Abram
Ge171 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
Ge172 And I will make my covenant between me and thee and will multiply thee exceedingly
Ge173 And Abram fell on his face and God talked with him saying
Ge174 As for me behold my covenant is with thee and thou shalt be a father of many nations
Ge175 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
Ge176 And I will make thee exceeding fruitful and I will make nations of thee and kings shall come out of thee
Ge177 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
Ge178 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
Ge179 And God said unto Abraham Thou shalt keep my covenant therefore thou and thy seed after thee in their generations
Ge1710 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
Ge1711 And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin and it shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you
Ge1712 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
Ge1713 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
Ge1714 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
Ge1715 And God said unto Abraham As for Sarai thy wife thou shalt not call her name Sarai but Sarah shall her name be
Ge1716 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
Ge1717 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?
Ge1718 And Abraham said unto God O that Ishmael might live before thee!
Ge1719 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
Ge1720 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
Ge1721 But my covenant will I establish with Isaac which Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year
Ge1722 And he left off talking with him and God went up from Abraham
Ge1723 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 Abrahams house and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the selfsame day as God had said unto him
Ge1724 And Abraham was ninety years old and nine when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin
Ge1725 And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin
Ge1726 In the selfsame day was Abraham circumcised and Ishmael his son
Ge1727 And all the men of his house born in the house and bought with money of the stranger were circumcised with him
Ge181 And the LORD appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day
Ge182 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
Ge183 And said My LORD if now I have found favour in thy sight pass not away I pray thee from thy servant
Ge184 Let a little water I pray you be fetched and wash your feet and rest yourselves under the tree
Ge185 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
Ge186 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
Ge187 And Abraham ran unto the herd and fetcht a calf tender and good and gave it unto a young man and he hasted to dress it
Ge188 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
Ge189 And they said unto him Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said Behold in the tent
Ge1810 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
Ge1811 Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age and it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women
Ge1812 Therefore Sarah laughed within herself saying After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure my lord being old also?
Ge1813 And the LORD said unto Abraham Wherefore did Sarah laugh saying Shall I of a surety bear a child which am old?
Ge1814 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
Ge1815 Then Sarah denied saying I laughed not for she was afraid And he said Nay but thou didst laugh
Ge1816 And the men rose up from thence and looked toward Sodom and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way
Ge1817 And the LORD said Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do
Ge1818 Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
Ge1819 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
Ge1820 And the LORD said Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great and because their sin is very grievous
Ge1821 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
Ge1822 And the men turned their faces from thence and went toward Sodom but Abraham stood yet before the LORD
Ge1823 And Abraham drew near and said Wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked?
Ge1824 Peradventure there be fifty righteous within the city wilt thou also destroy and not spare the place for the fifty righteous that are therein?
Ge1825 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?
Ge1826 And the LORD said If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city then I will spare all the place for their sakes
Ge1827 And Abraham answered and said Behold now I have taken upon me to speak unto the LORD which am but dust and ashes
Ge1828 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
Ge1829 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 fortys sake
Ge1830 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
Ge1831 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 twentys sake
Ge1832 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 tens sake
Ge1833 And the LORD went his way as soon as he had left communing with Abraham and Abraham returned unto his place
Ge191 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
Ge192 And he said Behold now my lords turn in I pray you into your servants 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
Ge193 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
Ge194 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
Ge195 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
Ge196 And Lot went out at the door unto them and shut the door after him
Ge197 And said I pray you brethren do not so wickedly
Ge198 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
Ge199 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
Ge1910 But the men put forth their hand and pulled Lot into the house to them and shut to the door
Ge1911 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
Ge1912 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
Ge1913 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
Ge1914 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
Ge1915 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
Ge1916 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
Ge1917 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
Ge1918 And Lot said unto them Oh not so my LORD
Ge1919 Behold now thy servant hath found grace in thy sight and thou hast magnified thy mercy which thou hast shewed unto me in saving my life and I cannot escape to the mountain lest some evil take me and I die
Ge1920 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
Ge1921 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
Ge1922 Haste thee escape thither for I cannot do anything till thou be come thither Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar
Ge1923 The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar
Ge1924 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven
Ge1925 And he overthrew those cities and all the plain and all the inhabitants of the cities and that which grew upon the ground
Ge1926 But his wife looked back from behind him and she became a pillar of salt
Ge1927 And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the LORD
Ge1928 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
Ge1929 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
Ge1930 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
Ge1931 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
Ge1932 Come let us make our father drink wine and we will lie with him that we may preserve seed of our father
Ge1933 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
Ge1934 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
Ge1935 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
Ge1936 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father
Ge1937 And the first born bare a son and called his name Moab the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day
Ge1938 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
Ge201 And Abraham journeyed from thence toward the south country and dwelled between Kadesh and Shur and sojourned in Gerar
Ge202 And Abraham said of Sarah his wife She is my sister and Abimelech king of Gerar sent and took Sarah
Ge203 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 mans wife
Ge204 But Abimelech had not come near her and he said LORD wilt thou slay also a righteous nation?
Ge205 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
Ge206 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
Ge207 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
Ge208 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
Ge209 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
Ge2010 And Abimelech said unto Abraham What sawest thou that thou hast done this thing?
Ge2011 And Abraham said Because I thought Surely the fear of God is not in this place and they will slay me for my wifes sake
Ge2012 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
Ge2013 And it came to pass when God caused me to wander from my fathers house that I said unto her This is thy kindness which thou shalt shew unto me at every place whither we shall come say of me He is my brother
Ge2014 And Abimelech took sheep and oxen and menservants and womenservants and gave them unto Abraham and restored him Sarah his wife
Ge2015 And Abimelech said Behold my land is before thee dwell where it pleaseth thee
Ge2016 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
Ge2017 So Abraham prayed unto God and God healed Abimelech and his wife and his maidservants and they bare children
Ge2018 For the LORD had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech because of Sarah Abrahams wife
Ge211 And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said and the LORD did unto Sarah as he had spoken
Ge212 For Sarah conceived and bare Abraham a son in his old age at the set time of which God had spoken to him
Ge213 And Abraham called the name of his son that was born unto him whom Sarah bare to him Isaac
Ge214 And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac being eight days old as God had commanded him
Ge215 And Abraham was an hundred years old when his son Isaac was born unto him
Ge216 And Sarah said God hath made me to laugh so that all that hear will laugh with me
Ge217 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
Ge218 And the child grew and was weaned and Abraham made a great feast the same day that Isaac was weaned
Ge219 And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian which she had born unto Abraham mocking
Ge2110 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
Ge2111 And the thing was very grievous in Abrahams sight because of his son
Ge2112 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
Ge2113 And also of the son of the bondwoman will I make a nation because he is thy seed
Ge2114 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
Ge2115 And the water was spent in the bottle and she cast the child under one of the shrubs
Ge2116 And she went and sat her down over against him a good way off as it were a bow shot 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
Ge2117 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
Ge2118 Arise lift up the lad and hold him in thine hand for I will make him a great nation
Ge2119 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
Ge2120 And God was with the lad and he grew and dwelt in the wilderness and became an archer
Ge2121 And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran and his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt
Ge2122 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
Ge2123 Now therefore swear unto me here by God that thou wilt not deal falsely with me nor with my son nor with my sons 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
Ge2124 And Abraham said I will swear
Ge2125 And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of a well of water which Abimelechs servants had violently taken away
Ge2126 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
Ge2127 And Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them unto Abimelech and both of them made a covenant
Ge2128 And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves
Ge2129 And Abimelech said unto Abraham What mean these seven ewe lambs which thou hast set by themselves?
Ge2130 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
Ge2131 Wherefore he called that place Beersheba because there they sware both of them
Ge2132 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
Ge2133 And Abraham planted a grove in Beersheba and called there on the name of the LORD the everlasting God
Ge2134 And Abraham sojourned in the Philistines land many days
Ge221 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
Ge222 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
Ge223 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
Ge224 Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place afar off
Ge225 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
Ge226 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
Ge227 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?
Ge228 And Abraham said My son God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering so they went both of them together
Ge229 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
Ge2210 And Abraham stretched forth his hand and took the knife to slay his son
Ge2211 And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of heaven and said Abraham Abraham and he said Here am I
Ge2212 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
Ge2213 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
Ge2214 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
Ge2215 And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time
Ge2216 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
Ge2217 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
Ge2218 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed because thou hast obeyed my voice
Ge2219 So Abraham returned unto his young men and they rose up and went together to Beersheba and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba
Ge2220 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
Ge2221 Huz his firstborn and Buz his brother and Kemuel the father of Aram
Ge2222 And Chesed and Hazo and Pildash and Jidlaph and Bethuel
Ge2223 And Bethuel begat Rebekah these eight Milcah did bear to Nahor Abrahams brother
Ge2224 And his concubine whose name was Reumah she bare also Tebah and Gaham and Thahash and Maachah
Ge231 And Sarah was an hundred and seven and twenty years old these were the years of the life of Sarah
Ge232 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
Ge233 And Abraham stood up from before his dead and spake unto the sons of Heth saying
Ge234 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
Ge235 And the children of Heth answered Abraham saying unto him
Ge236 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
Ge237 And Abraham stood up and bowed himself to the people of the land even to the children of Heth
Ge238 And he communed with them saying If it be your mind that I should bury my dead out of my sight hear me and intreat for me to Ephron the son of Zohar
Ge239 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
Ge2310 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
Ge2311 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
Ge2312 And Abraham bowed down himself before the people of the land
Ge2313 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
Ge2314 And Ephron answered Abraham saying unto him
Ge2315 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
Ge2316 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
Ge2317 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
Ge2318 Unto Abraham for a possession in the presence of the children of Heth before all that went in at the gate of his city
Ge2319 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
Ge2320 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
Ge241 And Abraham was old and well stricken in age and the LORD had blessed Abraham in all things
Ge242 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
Ge243 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
Ge244 But thou shalt go unto my country and to my kindred and take a wife unto my son Isaac
Ge245 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?
Ge246 And Abraham said unto him Beware thou that thou bring not my son thither again
Ge247 The LORD God of heaven which took me from my fathers 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
Ge248 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
Ge249 And the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master and sware to him concerning that matter
Ge2410 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
Ge2411 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
Ge2412 And he said O LORD God of my master Abraham I pray thee send me good speed this day and shew kindness unto my master Abraham
Ge2413 Behold I stand here by the well of water and the daughters of the men of the city come out to draw water
Ge2414 And let it come to pass that the damsel to whom I shall say Let down thy pitcher I pray thee that I may drink and she shall say Drink and I will give thy camels drink also let the same be she that thou hast appointed for thy servant Isaac and thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed kindness unto my master
Ge2415 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 Abrahams brother with her pitcher upon her shoulder
Ge2416 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
Ge2417 And the servant ran to meet her and said Let me I pray thee drink a little water of thy pitcher
Ge2418 And she said Drink my lord and she hasted and let down her pitcher upon her hand and gave him drink
Ge2419 And when she had done giving him drink she said I will draw water for thy camels also until they have done drinking
Ge2420 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
Ge2421 And the man wondering at her held his peace to wit whether the LORD had made his journey prosperous or not
Ge2422 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
Ge2423 And said Whose daughter art thou? tell me I pray thee is there room in thy fathers house for us to lodge in?
Ge2424 And she said unto him I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah which she bare unto Nahor
Ge2425 She said moreover unto him We have both straw and provender enough and room to lodge in
Ge2426 And the man bowed down his head and worshipped the LORD
Ge2427 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 masters brethren
Ge2428 And the damsel ran and told them of her mothers house these things
Ge2429 And Rebekah had a brother and his name was Laban and Laban ran out unto the man unto the well
Ge2430 And it came to pass when he saw the earring and bracelets upon his sisters 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
Ge2431 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
Ge2432 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 mens feet that were with him
Ge2433 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
Ge2434 And he said I am Abrahams servant
Ge2435 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
Ge2436 And Sarah my masters wife bare a son to my master when she was old and unto him hath he given all that he hath
Ge2437 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
Ge2438 But thou shalt go unto my fathers house and to my kindred and take a wife unto my son
Ge2439 And I said unto my master Peradventure the woman will not follow me
Ge2440 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 fathers house
Ge2441 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
Ge2442 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
Ge2443 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
Ge2444 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 masters son
Ge2445 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
Ge2446 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
Ge2447 And I asked her and said Whose daughter art thou? And she said The daughter of Bethuel Nahors son whom Milcah bare unto him and I put the earring upon her face and the bracelets upon her hands
Ge2448 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 masters brothers daughter unto his son
Ge2449 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
Ge2450 Then Laban and Bethuel answered and said The thing proceedeth from the LORD we cannot speak unto thee bad or good
Ge2451 Behold Rebekah is before thee take her and go and let her be thy masters sons wife as the LORD hath spoken
Ge2452 And it came to pass that when Abrahams servant heard their words he worshipped the LORD bowing himself to the earth
Ge2453 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
Ge2454 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
Ge2455 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
Ge2456 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
Ge2457 And they said We will call the damsel and enquire at her mouth
Ge2458 And they called Rebekah and said unto her Wilt thou go with this man? And she said I will go
Ge2459 And they sent away Rebekah their sister and her nurse and Abrahams servant and his men
Ge2460 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
Ge2461 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
Ge2462 And Isaac came from the way of the well Lahairoi for he dwelt in the south country
Ge2463 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
Ge2464 And Rebekah lifted up her eyes and when she saw Isaac she lighted off the camel
Ge2465 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 vail and covered herself
Ge2466 And the servant told Isaac all things that he had done
Ge2467 And Isaac brought her into his mother Sarahs tent and took Rebekah and she became his wife and he loved her and Isaac was comforted after his mothers death
Ge251 Then again Abraham took a wife and her name was Keturah
Ge252 And she bare him Zimran and Jokshan and Medan and Midian and Ishbak and Shuah
Ge253 And Jokshan begat Sheba and Dedan And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim and Letushim and Leummim
Ge254 And the sons of Midian Ephah and Epher and Hanoch and Abidah and Eldaah All these were the children of Keturah
Ge255 And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac
Ge256 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
Ge257 And these are the days of the years of Abrahams life which he lived an hundred threescore and fifteen years
Ge258 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
Ge259 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
Ge2510 The field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth there was Abraham buried and Sarah his wife
Ge2511 And it came to pass after the death of Abraham that God blessed his son Isaac and Isaac dwelt by the well Lahairoi
Ge2512 Now these are the generations of Ishmael Abrahams son whom Hagar the Egyptian Sarahs handmaid bare unto Abraham
Ge2513 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
Ge2514 And Mishma and Dumah and Massa
Ge2515 Hadar and Tema Jetur Naphish and Kedemah
Ge2516 These are the sons of Ishmael and these are their names by their towns and by their castles twelve princes according to their nations
Ge2517 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
Ge2518 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
Ge2519 And these are the generations of Isaac Abrahams son Abraham begat Isaac
Ge2520 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
Ge2521 And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife because she was barren and the LORD was intreated of him and Rebekah his wife conceived
Ge2522 And the children struggled together within her and she said If it be so why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD
Ge2523 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
Ge2524 And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled behold there were twins in her womb
Ge2525 And the first came out red all over like an hairy garment and they called his name Esau
Ge2526 And after that came his brother out and his hand took hold on Esaus heel and his name was called Jacob and Isaac was threescore years old when she bare them
Ge2527 And the boys grew and Esau was a cunning hunter a man of the field and Jacob was a plain man dwelling in tents
Ge2528 And Isaac loved Esau because he did eat of his venison but Rebekah loved Jacob
Ge2529 And Jacob sod pottage and Esau came from the field and he was faint
Ge2530 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
Ge2531 And Jacob said Sell me this day thy birthright
Ge2532 And Esau said Behold I am at the point to die and what profit shall this birthright do to me?
Ge2533 And Jacob said Swear to me this day and he sware unto him and he sold his birthright unto Jacob
Ge2534 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
Ge261 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
Ge262 And the LORD appeared unto him and said Go not down into Egypt dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of
Ge263 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
Ge264 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
Ge265 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice and kept my charge my commandments my statutes and my laws
Ge266 And Isaac dwelt in Gerar
Ge267 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
Ge268 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
Ge269 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
Ge2610 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
Ge2611 And Abimelech charged all his people saying He that toucheth this man or his wife shall surely be put to death
Ge2612 Then Isaac sowed in that land and received in the same year an hundredfold and the LORD blessed him
Ge2613 And the man waxed great and went forward and grew until he became very great
Ge2614 For he had possession of flocks and possession of herds and great store of servants and the Philistines envied him
Ge2615 For all the wells which his fathers servants had digged in the days of Abraham his father the Philistines had stopped them and filled them with earth
Ge2616 And Abimelech said unto Isaac Go from us for thou art much mightier than we
Ge2617 And Isaac departed thence and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar and dwelt there
Ge2618 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
Ge2619 And Isaacs servants digged in the valley and found there a well of springing water
Ge2620 And the herdmen of Gerar did strive with Isaacs herdmen saying The water is ours and he called the name of the well Esek because they strove with him
Ge2621 And they digged another well and strove for that also and he called the name of it Sitnah
Ge2622 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
Ge2623 And he went up from thence to Beersheba
Ge2624 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 Abrahams sake
Ge2625 And he builded an altar there and called upon the name of the LORD and pitched his tent there and there Isaacs servants digged a well
Ge2626 Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar and Ahuzzath one of his friends and Phichol the chief captain of his army
Ge2627 And Isaac said unto them Wherefore come ye to me seeing ye hate me and have sent me away from you?
Ge2628 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
Ge2629 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
Ge2630 And he made them a feast and they did eat and drink
Ge2631 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
Ge2632 And it came to pass the same day that Isaacs servants came and told him concerning the well which they had digged and said unto him We have found water
Ge2633 And he called it Shebah therefore the name of the city is Beersheba unto this day
Ge2634 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
Ge2635 Which were a grief of mind unto Isaac and to Rebekah
Ge271 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
Ge272 And he said Behold now I am old I know not the day of my death
Ge273 Now therefore take I pray thee thy weapons thy quiver and thy bow and go out to the field and take me some venison
Ge274 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
Ge275 And Rebekah heard when Isaac spake to Esau his son And Esau went to the field to hunt for venison and to bring it
Ge276 And Rebekah spake unto Jacob her son saying Behold I heard thy father speak unto Esau thy brother saying
Ge277 Bring me venison and make me savoury meat that I may eat and bless thee before the LORD before my death
Ge278 Now therefore my son obey my voice according to that which I command thee
Ge279 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
Ge2710 And thou shalt bring it to thy father that he may eat and that he may bless thee before his death
Ge2711 And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother Behold Esau my brother is a hairy man and I am a smooth man
Ge2712 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
Ge2713 And his mother said unto him Upon me be thy curse my son only obey my voice and go fetch me them
Ge2714 And he went and fetched and brought them to his mother and his mother made savoury meat such as his father loved
Ge2715 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
Ge2716 And she put the skins of the kids of the goats upon his hands and upon the smooth of his neck
Ge2717 And she gave the savoury meat and the bread which she had prepared into the hand of her son Jacob
Ge2718 And he came unto his father and said My father and he said Here am I who art thou my son?
Ge2719 And Jacob said unto his father I am Esau thy first born I have done according as thou badest me arise I pray thee sit and eat of my venison that thy soul may bless me
Ge2720 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
Ge2721 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
Ge2722 And Jacob went near unto Isaac his father and he felt him and said The voice is Jacobs voice but the hands are the hands of Esau
Ge2723 And he discerned him not because his hands were hairy as his brother Esaus hands so he blessed him
Ge2724 And he said Art thou my very son Esau? And he said I am
Ge2725 And he said Bring it near to me and I will eat of my sons 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
Ge2726 And his father Isaac said unto him Come near now and kiss me my son
Ge2727 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
Ge2728 Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven and the fatness of the earth and plenty of corn and wine
Ge2729 Let people serve thee and nations bow down to thee be lord over thy brethren and let thy mothers sons bow down to thee cursed be every one that curseth thee and blessed be he that blesseth thee
Ge2730 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
Ge2731 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 sons venison that thy soul may bless me
Ge2732 And Isaac his father said unto him Who art thou? And he said I am thy son thy firstborn Esau
Ge2733 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
Ge2734 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
Ge2735 And he said Thy brother came with subtilty and hath taken away thy blessing
Ge2736 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?
Ge2737 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?
Ge2738 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
Ge2739 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
Ge2740 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
Ge2741 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
Ge2742 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
Ge2743 Now therefore my son obey my voice and arise flee thou to Laban my brother to Haran
Ge2744 And tarry with him a few days until thy brothers fury turn away
Ge2745 Until thy brothers 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?
Ge2746 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?
Ge281 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
Ge282 Arise go to Padanaram to the house of Bethuel thy mothers father and take thee a wife from thence of the daughters of Laban thy mothers brother
Ge283 And God Almighty bless thee and make thee fruitful and multiply thee that thou mayest be a multitude of people
Ge284 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
Ge285 And Isaac sent away Jacob and he went to Padanaram unto Laban son of Bethuel the Syrian the brother of Rebekah Jacobs and Esaus mother
Ge286 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
Ge287 And that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother and was gone to Padanaram
Ge288 And Esau seeing that the daughters of Canaan pleased not Isaac his father
Ge289 Then went Esau unto Ishmael and took unto the wives which he had Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael Abrahams son the sister of Nebajoth to be his wife
Ge2810 And Jacob went out from Beersheba and went toward Haran
Ge2811 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
Ge2812 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
Ge2813 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
Ge2814 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
Ge2815 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
Ge2816 And Jacob awaked out of his sleep and he said Surely the LORD is in this place and I knew it not
Ge2817 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
Ge2818 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
Ge2819 And he called the name of that place Bethel but the name of that city was called Luz at the first
Ge2820 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
Ge2821 So that I come again to my fathers house in peace then shall the LORD be my God
Ge2822 And this stone which I have set for a pillar shall be Gods house and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee
Ge291 Then Jacob went on his journey and came into the land of the people of the east
Ge292 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 wells mouth
Ge293 And thither were all the flocks gathered and they rolled the stone from the wells mouth and watered the sheep and put the stone again upon the wells mouth in his place
Ge294 And Jacob said unto them My brethren whence be ye? And they said Of Haran are we
Ge295 And he said unto them Know ye Laban the son of Nahor? And they said We know him
Ge296 And he said unto them Is he well? And they said He is well and behold Rachel his daughter cometh with the sheep
Ge297 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
Ge298 And they said We cannot until all the flocks be gathered together and till they roll the stone from the wells mouth then we water the sheep
Ge299 And while he yet spake with them Rachel came with her fathers sheep for she kept them
Ge2910 And it came to pass when Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban his mothers brother and the sheep of Laban his mothers brother that Jacob went near and rolled the stone from the wells mouth and watered the flock of Laban his mothers brother
Ge2911 And Jacob kissed Rachel and lifted up his voice and wept
Ge2912 And Jacob told Rachel that he was her fathers brother and that he was Rebekahs son and she ran and told her father
Ge2913 And it came to pass when Laban heard the tidings of Jacob his sisters 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
Ge2914 And Laban said to him Surely thou art my bone and my flesh And he abode with him the space of a month
Ge2915 And Laban said unto Jacob Because thou art my brother shouldest thou therefore serve me for nought? tell me what shall thy wages be?
Ge2916 And Laban had two daughters the name of the elder was Leah and the name of the younger was Rachel
Ge2917 Leah was tender eyed but Rachel was beautiful and well favoured
Ge2918 And Jacob loved Rachel and said I will serve thee seven years for Rachel thy younger daughter
Ge2919 And Laban said It is better that I give her to thee than that I should give her to another man abide with me
Ge2920 And Jacob served seven years for Rachel and they seemed unto him but a few days for the love he had to her
Ge2921 And Jacob said unto Laban Give me my wife for my days are fulfilled that I may go in unto her
Ge2922 And Laban gathered together all the men of the place and made a feast
Ge2923 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
Ge2924 And Laban gave unto his daughter Leah Zilpah his maid for an handmaid
Ge2925 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?
Ge2926 And Laban said It must not be so done in our country to give the younger before the firstborn
Ge2927 Fulfil her week and we will give thee this also for the service which thou shalt serve with me yet seven other years
Ge2928 And Jacob did so and fulfilled her week and he gave him Rachel his daughter to wife also
Ge2929 And Laban gave to Rachel his daughter Bilhah his handmaid to be her maid
Ge2930 And he went in also unto Rachel and he loved also Rachel more than Leah and served with him yet seven other years
Ge2931 And when the LORD saw that Leah was hated he opened her womb but Rachel was barren
Ge2932 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
Ge2933 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
Ge2934 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
Ge2935 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
Ge301 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
Ge302 And Jacobs anger was kindled against Rachel and he said Am I in Gods stead who hath withheld from thee the fruit of the womb?
Ge303 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
Ge304 And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid to wife and Jacob went in unto her
Ge305 And Bilhah conceived and bare Jacob a son
Ge306 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
Ge307 And Bilhah Rachels maid conceived again and bare Jacob a second son
Ge308 And Rachel said With great wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister and I have prevailed and she called his name Naphtali
Ge309 When Leah saw that she had left bearing she took Zilpah her maid and gave her Jacob to wife
Ge3010 And Zilpah Leahs maid bare Jacob a son
Ge3011 And Leah said A troop cometh and she called his name Gad
Ge3012 And Zilpah Leahs maid bare Jacob a second son
Ge3013 And Leah said Happy am I for the daughters will call me blessed and she called his name Asher
Ge3014 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 sons mandrakes
Ge3015 And she said unto her Is it a small matter that thou hast taken my husband? and wouldest thou take away my sons mandrakes also? And Rachel said Therefore he shall lie with thee to night for thy sons mandrakes
Ge3016 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 sons mandrakes And he lay with her that night
Ge3017 And God hearkened unto Leah and she conceived and bare Jacob the fifth son
Ge3018 And Leah said God hath given me my hire because I have given my maiden to my husband and she called his name Issachar
Ge3019 And Leah conceived again and bare Jacob the sixth son
Ge3020 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
Ge3021 And afterwards she bare a daughter and called her name Dinah
Ge3022 And God remembered Rachel and God hearkened to her and opened her womb
Ge3023 And she conceived and bare a son and said God hath taken away my reproach
Ge3024 And she called his name Joseph and said The LORD shall add to me another son
Ge3025 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
Ge3026 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
Ge3027 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
Ge3028 And he said Appoint me thy wages and I will give it
Ge3029 And he said unto him Thou knowest how I have served thee and how thy cattle was with me
Ge3030 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?
Ge3031 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
Ge3032 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
Ge3033 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
Ge3034 And Laban said Behold I would it might be according to thy word
Ge3035 And he removed that day the he goats that were ringstraked 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
Ge3036 And he set three days journey betwixt himself and Jacob and Jacob fed the rest of Labans flocks
Ge3037 And Jacob took him rods of green poplar and of the hazel and chestnut tree and pilled white strakes in them and made the white appear which was in the rods
Ge3038 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
Ge3039 And the flocks conceived before the rods and brought forth cattle ringstraked speckled and spotted
Ge3040 And Jacob did separate the lambs and set the faces of the flocks toward the ringstraked and all the brown in the flock of Laban and he put his own flocks by themselves and put them not unto Labans cattle
Ge3041 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
Ge3042 But when the cattle were feeble he put them not in so the feebler were Labans and the stronger Jacobs
Ge3043 And the man increased exceedingly and had much cattle and maidservants and menservants and camels and asses
Ge311 And he heard the words of Labans sons saying Jacob hath taken away all that was our fathers and of that which was our fathers hath he gotten all this glory
Ge312 And Jacob beheld the countenance of Laban and behold it was not toward him as before
Ge313 And the LORD said unto Jacob Return unto the land of thy fathers and to thy kindred and I will be with thee
Ge314 And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field unto his flock
Ge315 And said unto them I see your fathers countenance that it is not toward me as before but the God of my father hath been with me
Ge316 And ye know that with all my power I have served your father
Ge317 And your father hath deceived me and changed my wages ten times but God suffered him not to hurt me
Ge318 If he said thus The speckled shall be thy wages then all the cattle bare speckled and if he said thus The ringstraked shall be thy hire then bare all the cattle ringstraked
Ge319 Thus God hath taken away the cattle of your father and given them to me
Ge3110 And it came to pass at the time that the cattle conceived that I lifted up mine eyes and saw in a dream and behold the rams which leaped upon the cattle were ringstraked speckled and grisled
Ge3111 And the angel of God spake unto me in a dream saying Jacob And I said Here am I
Ge3112 And he said Lift up now thine eyes and see all the rams which leap upon the cattle are ringstraked speckled and grisled for I have seen all that Laban doeth unto thee
Ge3113 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
Ge3114 And Rachel and Leah answered and said unto him Is there yet any portion or inheritance for us in our fathers house?
Ge3115 Are we not counted of him strangers? for he hath sold us and hath quite devoured also our money
Ge3116 For all the riches which God hath taken from our father that is ours and our childrens now then whatsoever God hath said unto thee do
Ge3117 Then Jacob rose up and set his sons and his wives upon camels
Ge3118 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
Ge3119 And Laban went to shear his sheep and Rachel had stolen the images that were her fathers
Ge3120 And Jacob stole away unawares to Laban the Syrian in that he told him not that he fled
Ge3121 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
Ge3122 And it was told Laban on the third day that Jacob was fled
Ge3123 And he took his brethren with him and pursued after him seven days journey and they overtook him in the mount Gilead
Ge3124 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
Ge3125 Then Laban overtook Jacob Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mount and Laban with his brethren pitched in the mount of Gilead
Ge3126 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?
Ge3127 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?
Ge3128 And hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and my daughters? thou hast now done foolishly in so doing
Ge3129 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
Ge3130 And now though thou wouldest needs be gone because thou sore longedst after thy fathers house yet wherefore hast thou stolen my gods?
Ge3131 And Jacob answered and said to Laban Because I was afraid for I said Peradventure thou wouldest take by force thy daughters from me
Ge3132 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
Ge3133 And Laban went into Jacobs tent and into Leahs tent and into the two maidservants tents but he found them not Then went he out of Leahs tent and entered into Rachels tent
Ge3134 Now Rachel had taken the images and put them in the camels furniture and sat upon them And Laban searched all the tent but found them not
Ge3135 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
Ge3136 And Jacob was wroth and chode with Laban and Jacob answered and said to Laban What is my trespass? what is my sin that thou hast so hotly pursued after me?
Ge3137 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
Ge3138 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
Ge3139 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
Ge3140 Thus I was in the day the drought consumed me and the frost by night and my sleep departed from mine eyes
Ge3141 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
Ge3142 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
Ge3143 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?
Ge3144 Now therefore come thou let us make a covenant I and thou and let it be for a witness between me and thee
Ge3145 And Jacob took a stone and set it up for a pillar
Ge3146 And Jacob said unto his brethren Gather stones and they took stones and made an heap and they did eat there upon the heap
Ge3147 And Laban called it Jegarsahadutha but Jacob called it Galeed
Ge3148 And Laban said This heap is a witness between me and thee this day Therefore was the name of it called Galeed
Ge3149 And Mizpah for he said The LORD watch between me and thee when we are absent one from another
Ge3150 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
Ge3151 And Laban said to Jacob Behold this heap and behold this pillar which I have cast betwixt me and thee
Ge3152 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
Ge3153 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
Ge3154 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
Ge3155 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
Ge321 And Jacob went on his way and the angels of God met him
Ge322 And when Jacob saw them he said This is Gods host and he called the name of that place Mahanaim
Ge323 And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother unto the land of Seir the country of Edom
Ge324 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
Ge325 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
Ge326 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
Ge327 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
Ge328 And said If Esau come to the one company and smite it then the other company which is left shall escape
Ge329 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
Ge3210 I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies and of all the truth which thou hast shewed unto thy servant for with my staff I passed over this Jordan and now I am become two bands
Ge3211 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
Ge3212 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
Ge3213 And he lodged there that same night and took of that which came to his hand a present for Esau his brother
Ge3214 Two hundred she goats and twenty he goats two hundred ewes and twenty rams
Ge3215 Thirty milch camels with their colts forty kine and ten bulls twenty she asses and ten foals
Ge3216 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
Ge3217 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?
Ge3218 Then thou shalt say They be thy servant Jacobs it is a present sent unto my lord Esau and behold also he is behind us
Ge3219 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
Ge3220 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
Ge3221 So went the present over before him and himself lodged that night in the company
Ge3222 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
Ge3223 And he took them and sent them over the brook and sent over that he had
Ge3224 And Jacob was left alone and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day
Ge3225 And when he saw that he prevailed not against him he touched the hollow of his thigh and the hollow of Jacobs thigh was out of joint as he wrestled with him
Ge3226 And he said Let me go for the day breaketh And he said I will not let thee go except thou bless me
Ge3227 And he said unto him What is thy name? And he said Jacob
Ge3228 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
Ge3229 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
Ge3230 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel for I have seen God face to face and my life is preserved
Ge3231 And as he passed over Penuel the sun rose upon him and he halted upon his thigh
Ge3232 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 Jacobs thigh in the sinew that shrank
Ge331 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
Ge332 And he put the handmaids and their children foremost and Leah and her children after and Rachel and Joseph hindermost
Ge333 And he passed over before them and bowed himself to the ground seven times until he came near to his brother
Ge334 And Esau ran to meet him and embraced him and fell on his neck and kissed him and they wept
Ge335 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
Ge336 Then the handmaidens came near they and their children and they bowed themselves
Ge337 And Leah also with her children came near and bowed themselves and after came Joseph near and Rachel and they bowed themselves
Ge338 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
Ge339 And Esau said I have enough my brother keep that thou hast unto thyself
Ge3310 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
Ge3311 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
Ge3312 And he said Let us take our journey and let us go and I will go before thee
Ge3313 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
Ge3314 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
Ge3315 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
Ge3316 So Esau returned that day on his way unto Seir
Ge3317 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
Ge3318 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
Ge3319 And he bought a parcel of a field where he had spread his tent at the hand of the children of Hamor Shechems father for an hundred pieces of money
Ge3320 And he erected there an altar and called it EleloheIsrael
Ge341 And Dinah the daughter of Leah which she bare unto Jacob went out to see the daughters of the land
Ge342 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
Ge343 And his soul clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob and he loved the damsel and spake kindly unto the damsel
Ge344 And Shechem spake unto his father Hamor saying Get me this damsel to wife
Ge345 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
Ge346 And Hamor the father of Shechem went out unto Jacob to commune with him
Ge347 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 Jacobs daughter which thing ought not to be done
Ge348 And Hamor communed with them saying The soul of my son Shechem longeth for your daughter I pray you give her him to wife
Ge349 And make ye marriages with us and give your daughters unto us and take our daughters unto you
Ge3410 And ye shall dwell with us and the land shall be before you dwell and trade ye therein and get you possessions therein
Ge3411 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
Ge3412 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
Ge3413 And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully and said because he had defiled Dinah their sister
Ge3414 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
Ge3415 But in this will we consent unto you If ye will be as we be that every male of you be circumcised
Ge3416 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
Ge3417 But if ye will not hearken unto us to be circumcised then will we take our daughter and we will be gone
