-Genesis Ge 1 1 1 In the beginning God created heaven, and earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 2 And the earth was void and empty, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God moved over the waters.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 3 And God said: Be light made. And light was made.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 4 And God saw the light that it was good; and he divided the light from the darkness.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 5 And he called the light Day, and the darkness Night; and there was evening and morning one day.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 6 And God said: Let there be a firmament made amidst the waters: and let it divide the waters from the waters.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 7 And God made a firmament, and divided the waters that were under the firmament, from those that were above the firmament, and it was so.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 8 And God called the firmament, Heaven; and the evening and morning were the second day.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 9 God also said; Let the waters that are under the heaven, be gathered together into one place: and let the dry land appear. And it was so done.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 10 And God called the dry land, Earth; and the gathering together of the waters, he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 11 And he said: let the earth bring forth green herb, and such as may seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after its kind, which may have seed in itself upon the earth. And it was so done.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 12 And the earth brought forth the green herb, and such as yieldeth seed according to its kind, and the tree that beareth fruit, having seed each one according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 14 And God said: Let there be lights made in the firmament of heaven, to divide the day and the night, and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years:
-Genesis Ge 1 1 15 To shine in the firmament of heaven, and to give light upon the earth, and it was so done.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 16 And God made two great lights: a greater light to rule the day; and a lesser light to rule the night: and the stars.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 17 And he set them in the firmament of heaven to shine upon the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 18 And to rule the day and the night, and to divide the light and the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 19 And the evening and morning were the fourth day.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 20 God also said: let the waters bring forth the creeping creature having life, and the fowl that may fly over the earth under the firmament of heaven.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 21 And God created the great whales, and every living and moving creature, which the waters brought forth, according to their kinds, and every winged fowl according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 22 And he blessed them, saying: Increase and multiply, and fill the waters of the sea: and let the birds be multiplied upon the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 23 And the evening and morning were the fifth day.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 24 And God said: Let the earth bring forth the living creature in its kind, cattle and creeping things, and beasts of the earth, according to their kinds. And it was so done.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 25 And God made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds, and cattle, and every thing that creepeth on the earth after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 26 And he said: Let us make man to our image and likeness: and let him have dominion over the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the air, and the beasts, and the whole earth, and every creeping creature that moveth upon the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 27 And God created man to his own image: to the image of God he created him: male and female he created them.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 28 And God blessed them, saying: Increase and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule over the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the air, and all living creatures that move upon the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 29 And God said: Behold I have given you every herb bearing seed upon the earth, and all trees that have in themselves seed of their own kind, to be your meat:
-Genesis Ge 1 1 30 And to all beasts of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to all that move upon the earth, and wherein there is life, that they may have to feed upon. And it was so done.
-Genesis Ge 1 1 31 And God saw all the things that he had made, and they were very good. And the evening and morning were the sixth day.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 1 So the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the furniture of them.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 2 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 done.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 3 And he blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 4 These are the generations of the heaven and the earth, when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the heaven and the earth:
-Genesis Ge 1 2 5 And every plant of the field before it sprung up in the earth, and every herb of the ground before it grew: for the Lord God had not rained upon the earth; and there was not a man to till the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 6 But a spring rose out of the earth, watering all the surface of the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 7 And the Lord God formed man of the slime of the earth: and breathed into his face the breath of life, and man became a living soul.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 8 And the Lord God had planted a paradise of pleasure from the beginning: wherein he placed man whom he had formed.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 9 And the Lord God brought forth of the ground all manner of trees, fair to behold, and pleasant to eat of: the tree of life also in the midst of paradise: and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 10 And a river went out of the place of pleasure to water paradise, which from thence is divided into four heads.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 11 The name of the one is Phison: that is it which compasseth all the land of Hevilath, where gold groweth.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 12 And the gold of that land is very good: there is found bdellium, and the onyx stone.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 13 And the name of the second river is Gehon: the same is it that compasseth all the land of Ethiopia.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 14 And the name of the third river is Tigris: the same passeth along by the Assyrians. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 15 And the Lord God took man, and put him into the paradise of pleasure, to dress it, and to keep it.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 16 And he commanded him, saying: Of every tree of paradise thou shalt eat:
-Genesis Ge 1 2 17 But of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat. For in what day soever thou shalt eat of it, thou shalt die the death.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 18 And the Lord God said: It is not good for man to be alone: let us make him a help like unto himself.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 19 And the Lord God having formed out of the ground all the beasts of the earth, and all the fowls of the air, brought them to Adam to see what he would call them: for whatsoever Adam called any living creature the same is its name.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 20 And Adam called all the beasts by their names, and all the fowls of the air, and all the cattle of the field: but for Adam there was not found a helper like himself.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 21 Then the Lord God cast a deep sleep upon Adam: and when he was fast asleep, he took one of his ribs, and filled up flesh for it.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 22 And the Lord God built the rib which he took from Adam into a woman: and brought her to Adam.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 23 And Adam said: This now is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called woman, because she was taken out of man.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 24 Wherefore a man shall leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they shall be two in one flesh.
-Genesis Ge 1 2 25 And they were both naked: to wit, Adam and his wife: and were not ashamed.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 1 Now the serpent was more subtle than any of the beasts of the earth which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman: Why hath God commanded you, that you should not eat of every tree of paradise?
-Genesis Ge 1 3 2 And the woman answered him, saying: Of the fruit of the trees that are in paradise we do eat:
-Genesis Ge 1 3 3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of paradise, God hath commanded us that we should not eat; and that we should not touch it, lest perhaps we die.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 4 And the serpent said to the woman: No, you shall not die the death.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 5 For God doth know that in what day soever you shall eat thereof, your eyes shall be opened: and you shall be as Gods, knowing good and evil.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 6 And the woman saw that the tree was good to eat, and fair to the eyes, and delightful to behold: and she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave to her husband, who did eat.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 7 And the eyes of them both were opened: and when they perceived themselves to be naked, they sewed together fig leaves, and made themselves aprons.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 8 And when they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in paradise at the afternoon air, Adam and his wife hid themselves from the face of the Lord God, amidst the trees of paradise.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 9 And the Lord God called Adam, and said to him: Where art thou?
-Genesis Ge 1 3 10 And he said: I heard thy voice in paradise; and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 11 And he said to him: And who hath told thee that thou wast naked, but that thou hast eaten of the tree whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldst not eat?
-Genesis Ge 1 3 12 And Adam said: The woman, whom thou gavest me to be my companion, gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 13 And the Lord God said to the woman: Why hast thou done this? And she answered: The serpent deceived me, and I did eat.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 14 And the Lord God said to the serpent: Because thou hast done this thing, thou art cursed among all cattle, and beasts of the earth: upon thy breast shalt thou go, and earth shalt thou eat all the days of thy life.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 15 I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 16 To the woman also he said: I will multiply thy sorrows, and thy conceptions: in sorrow shalt thou bring forth children, and thou shalt be under thy husband’s power, and he shall have dominion over thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 17 And to Adam he said: Because thou hast hearkened to the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee, that thou shouldst not eat, cursed is the earth in thy work: with labour and toil shalt thou eat thereof all the days of thy life.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 18 Thorns and thistles shall it bring forth to thee, and thou shalt eat the herbs of the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread till thou return to the earth out of which thou wast taken: for dust thou art, and into dust thou shalt return.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 20 And Adam called the name of his wife Eve: because she was the mother of all the living.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 21 And the Lord God made for Adam and his wife garments of skins, and clothed them.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 22 And he said: Behold Adam is become as one of us, knowing good and evil: now therefore lest perhaps he put forth his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 23 And the Lord God sent him out of the paradise of pleasure, to till the earth from which he was taken.
-Genesis Ge 1 3 24 And he cast out Adam: and placed before the paradise of pleasure Cherubims, and a flaming sword, turning every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 1 And Adam knew Eve his wife; who conceived and brought forth Cain, saying: I have gotten a man through God.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 2 And again she brought forth his brother Abel. And Abel was a shepherd, and Cain a husbandman.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 3 And it came to pass after many days, that Cain offered, of the fruits of the earth, gifts to the Lord.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 4 Abel also offered of the firstlings of his flock, and of their fat: and the Lord had respect to Abel, and to his offerings.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 5 But to Cain and his offerings he had no respect: and Cain was exceeding angry, and his countenance fell.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 6 And the Lord said to him: Why art thou angry? and why is thy countenance fallen?
-Genesis Ge 1 4 7 If thou do well, shalt thou not receive? but if ill, shall not sin forthwith be present at the door? but the lust thereof shall be under thee, and thou shalt have dominion over it.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 8 And Cain said to Abel his brother: Let us go forth abroad. And when they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel, and slew him.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 9 And the Lord said to Cain: Where is thy brother Abel? And he answered: I know not: am I my brother’s keeper?
-Genesis Ge 1 4 10 And he said to him: What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth to me from the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 11 Now therefore cursed shalt thou be upon the earth, which hath opened her mouth and received the blood of thy brother at thy hand.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 12 When thou shalt till it, it shall not yield to thee its fruit: a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be upon the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 13 And Cain said to the Lord: My iniquity is greater than that I may deserve pardon.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 14 Behold thou dost cast me out this day from the face of the earth, and from thy face I shall be hid, and I shall be a vagabond and a fugitive on the earth: every one therefore that findeth me, shall kill me.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 15 And the Lord said to him: No, it shall not so be: but whosoever shall kill Cain, shall be punished sevenfold. And the Lord set a mark upon Cain, that whosoever found him should not kill him.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 16 And Cain went out from the face of the Lord, and dwelt as a fugitive on the earth at the east side of Eden.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 17 And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived, and brought forth Henoch: and he built a city, and called the name thereof by the name of his son Henoch.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 18 And Henoch begot Irad, and Irad begot Maviael, and Maviael begot Mathusael, and Mathusael begot Lamech,
-Genesis Ge 1 4 19 Who took two wives: the name of the one was Ada, and the name of the other Sella.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 20 And Ada brought forth Jabel: who was the father of such as dwell in tents, and of herdsmen.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 21 And his brother’s name was Jubal: he was the father of them that play upon the harp and the organs.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 22 Sella also brought forth Tubalcain, who was a hammerer and artificer in every work of brass and iron. And the sister of Tubalcain was Noema.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 23 And Lamech said to his wives Ada and Sella: Hear my voice, ye wives of Lamech, hearken to my speech: for I have slain a man to the wounding of myself, and a stripling to my own bruising.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 24 Sevenfold vengeance shall be taken for Cain: but for Lamech seventy times sevenfold.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 25 Adam also knew his wife again: and she brought forth a son, and called his name Seth, saying: God hath given me another seed for Abel, whom Cain slew.
-Genesis Ge 1 4 26 But to Seth also was born a son, whom he called Enos: this man began to call upon the name of the Lord.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 1 This is the book of the generation of Adam. In the day that God created man, he made him to the likeness of God.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 2 He created them male and female; and blessed them: and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 3 And Adam lived a hundred and thirty years, and begot a son to his own image and likeness, and called his name Seth.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 4 And the days of Adam, after he begot Seth, were eight hundred years: and he begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 5 And all the time that Adam lived, came to nine hundred and thirty years, and he died.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 6 Seth also lived a hundred and five years, and begot Enos.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 7 And Seth lived after he begot Enos, eight hundred and seven years, and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 8 And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years, and he died.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 9 And Enos lived ninety years, and begot Cainan.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 10 After whose birth he lived eight hundred and fifteen years, and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 11 And all the days of Enos were nine hundred and five years, and he died.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 12 And Cainan lived seventy years, and begot Malaleel.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 13 And Cainan lived after he begot Malaleel, eight hundred and forty years, and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 14 And all the days of Cainan were nine hundred and ten years, and he died.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 15 And Malaleel lived sixty-five years and begot Jared.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 16 And Malaleel lived after he begot Jared, eight hundred and thirty years, and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 17 And all the days of Malaleel were eight hundred and ninety-five years, and he died.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 18 And Jared lived a hundred and sixty-two years, and begot Henoch.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 19 And Jared lived after he begot Henoch, eight hundred years, and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 20 And all the days of Jared were nine hundred and sixty-two years, and he died.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 21 And Henoch lived sixty-five years, and begot Mathusala.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 22 And Henoch walked with God: and lived after he begot Mathusala, three hundred years, and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 23 And all the days of Henoch were three hundred and sixty-five years.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 24 And he walked with God, and was seen no more: because God took him.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 25 And Mathusala lived a hundred and eighty-seven years, and begot Lamech.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 26 And Mathlusala lived after he begot Lamech, seven hundred and eighty-two years, and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 27 And all the days of Mathusala were nine hundred and sixty-nine years, and he died.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 28 And Lamech lived a hundred and eighty-two years, and begot a son.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 29 And he called his name Noe, saying: This same shall comfort us from the works and labours of our hands on the earth, which the Lord hath cursed.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 30 And Lamech lived after he begot Noe, five hundred and ninety-five years, and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 5 31 And all the days of Lamech came to seven hundred and seventy-seven years, and he died. And Noe, when he was five hundred years old, begot Sem, Cham, and Japheth.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 1 And after that men began to be multiplied upon the earth, and daughters were born to them,
-Genesis Ge 1 6 2 The sons of God seeing the daughters of men, that they were fair, took to themselves wives of all which they chose.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 3 And God said: My spirit shall not remain in man for ever, because he is flesh, and his days shall be a hundred and twenty years.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 4 Now giants were upon the earth in those days. For after the sons of God went in to the daughters of men, and they brought forth children, these are the mighty men of old, men of renown.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 5 And God seeing that the wickedness of men was great on the earth, and that all the thought of their heart was bent upon evil at all times,
-Genesis Ge 1 6 6 It repented him that he had made man on the earth. And being touched inwardly with sorrow of heart,
-Genesis Ge 1 6 7 He said: I will destroy man, whom I have created, from the face of the earth, from man even to beasts, from the creeping thing even to the fowls of the air, for it repenteth me that I have made them.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 8 But Noe found grace before the Lord.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 9 These are the generations of Noe: Noe was a just and perfect man in his generations, he walked with God.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 10 And he begot three sons, Sem, Cham, and Japheth.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 11 And the earth was corrupted before God, and was filled with iniquity.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 12 And when God had seen that the earth was corrupted (for all flesh had corrupted its way upon the earth),
-Genesis Ge 1 6 13 He said to Noe: The end of all flesh is come before me, the earth is filled with iniquity through them, and I will destroy them with the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 14 Make thee an ark of timber planks: thou shalt make little rooms in the ark, and thou shalt pitch it within and without.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 15 And thus shalt thou make it. The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits: the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 16 Thou shalt make a window in the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish the top of it: and the door of the ark thou shalt set in the side: with lower, middle chambers, and third stories shalt thou make it.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 17 Behold, I will bring the waters of a great flood upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life under heaven. All things that are in the earth shall be consumed.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 18 And I will establish my covenant with thee, and thou shalt enter into the ark, thou and thy sons, and thy wife, and the wives of thy sons with thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 19 And of every living creature of all flesh, thou shalt bring two of a sort into the ark, that they may live with thee: of the male sex, and the female.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 20 Of fowls according to their kind, and of beasts in their kind, and of every thing that creepeth on the earth according to its kind: two of every sort shall go in with thee, that they may live.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 21 Thou shalt take unto thee of all food that may be eaten, and thou shalt lay it up with thee: and it shall be food for thee and them.
-Genesis Ge 1 6 22 And Noe did all things which God commanded him.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 1 And the Lord said to him: Go in, thou and all thy house, into the ark: for thee I have seen just before me in this generation.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 2 Of all clean beasts take seven and seven, the male and the female.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 3 But of the beasts that are unclean two and two, the male and the female. Of the fowls also of the air seven and seven, the male and the female: that seed may be saved upon the face of the whole earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 4 For yet a while, and after seven days, I will rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights: and I will destroy every substance that I have made, from the face of the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 5 And Noe did all things which the Lord had commanded him.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 6 And he was six hundred years old, when the waters of the flood overflowed the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 7 And Noe went in and his sons, his wife and the wives of his sons with him into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 8 And of beasts clean and unclean, and of fowls, and of every thing that moveth upon the earth,
-Genesis Ge 1 7 9 Two and two went in to Noe into the ark, male and female, as the Lord had commanded Noe.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 10 And after the seven days were passed, the waters of the flood overflowed the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 11 In the six hundredth year of the life of Noe, in the second month, in the seventeenth day of the month, all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the floodgates of heaven were opened:
-Genesis Ge 1 7 12 And the rain fell upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 13 In the selfsame day Noe, and Sem, and Cham, and Japheth, his sons: his wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, went into the ark.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 14 They and every beast according to its kind, and all the cattle in their kind, and every thing that moveth upon the earth, according to its kind, and every fowl according to its kind, all birds, and all that fly,
-Genesis Ge 1 7 15 Went in to Noe into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein was the breath of life.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the Lord shut him in on the outside.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 17 And the flood was forty days upon the earth: and the waters increased, and lifted up the ark on high from the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 18 For they overflowed exceedingly: and filled all on the face of the earth: and the ark was carried upon the waters.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 19 And the waters prevailed beyond measure upon the earth: and all the high mountains under the whole heaven were covered.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 20 The water was fifteen cubits higher than the mountains which it covered.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 21 And all flesh was destroyed that moved upon the earth, both of fowl and of cattle, and of beasts, and of all creeping things that creep upon the earth: and all men.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 22 And all things wherein there is the breath of life on the earth, died.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 23 And he destroyed all the substance that was upon the earth, from man even to beast, and the creeping things and fowls of the air: and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noe only remained, and they that were with him in the ark.
-Genesis Ge 1 7 24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth a hundred and fifty days.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 1 And God remembered Noe, and all the living creatures, and all the cattle which were with him in the ark, and brought a wind upon the earth, and the waters were abated:
-Genesis Ge 1 8 2 The fountains also of the deep, and the floodgates of heaven, were shut up, and the rain from heaven was restrained.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 3 And the waters returned from off the earth going and coming: and they began to be abated after a hundred and fifty days.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, the seven and twentieth day of the month, upon the mountains of Armenia.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 5 And the waters were going and decreasing until the tenth month: for in the tenth month, the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains appeared.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 6 And after that forty days were passed, Noe opening the window of the ark, which he had made, sent forth a raven:
-Genesis Ge 1 8 7 Which went forth and did not return, till the waters were dried up upon the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 8 He sent forth also a dove after him, to see if the waters had now ceased upon the face of the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 9 But she not finding where her foot might rest, returned to him into the ark: for the waters were upon the whole earth: and he put forth his hand, and caught her, and brought her into the ark.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 10 And having waited yet seven other days, he again sent forth the dove out of the ark.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 11 And she came to him in the evening carrying a bough of an olive tree, with green leaves, in her mouth. Noe therefore understood that the waters were ceased upon the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 12 And he stayed yet other seven days: and he sent forth the dove, which returned not any more unto him.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 13 Therefore in the six hundredth and first year, the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were lessened upon the earth, and Noe opening the covering of the ark, looked, and saw that the face of the earth was dried.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 14 In the second month, the seven and twentieth day of the month, the earth was dried.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 15 And God spoke to Noe, saying:
-Genesis Ge 1 8 16 Go out of the ark, thou and thy wife, thy sons and the wives of thy sons with thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 17 All living things that are with thee of all flesh, as well in fowls as in beasts, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, bring out with thee, and go ye upon the earth: increase and multiply upon it.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 18 So Noe went out, he and his sons: his wife, and the wives of his sons with him.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 19 And all living things, and cattle, and creeping things that creep upon the earth, according to their kinds went out of the ark.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 20 And Noe built an altar unto the Lord: and taking of all cattle and fowls that were clean, offered holocausts upon the altar.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 21 And the Lord smelled a sweet savour, and said: I will no more curse the earth for the sake of man: for the imagination and thought of man’s heart are prone to evil from his youth: therefore I will no more destroy every living soul as I have done.
-Genesis Ge 1 8 22 All the days of the earth, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, night and day, shall not cease.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 1 And God blessed Noe and his sons. And he said to them: Increase, and multiply, and fill the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 2 And let the fear and dread of you be upon all the beasts of the earth, and upon all the fowls of the air, and all that move upon the earth: all the fishes of the sea are delivered into your hand.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 3 And every thing that moveth, and liveth shall be meat for you: even as the green herbs have I delivered them all to you:
-Genesis Ge 1 9 4 Saving that flesh with blood you shall not eat.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 5 For I will require the blood of your lives at the hand of every beast, and at the hand of man, at the hand of every man, and of his brother, will I require the life of man.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 6 Whosoever shall shed man’s blood, his blood shall be shed: for man was made to the image of God.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 7 But increase you and multiply, and go upon the earth and fill it.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 8 Thus also said God to Noe, and to his sons with him:
-Genesis Ge 1 9 9 Behold I will establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you:
-Genesis Ge 1 9 10 And with every living soul that is with you, as well in all birds, as in cattle and beasts of the earth, that are come forth out of the ark, and in all the beasts of the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 11 I will establish my covenant with you, and all flesh shall be no more destroyed with the waters of a flood, neither shall there be from henceforth a flood to waste the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 12 And God said: This is the sign of the covenant which I give between me and you, and to every living soul that is with you, for perpetual generations.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 13 I will set my bow in the clouds, and it shall be the sign of a covenant between me and between the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 14 And when I shall cover the sky with clouds, my bow shall appear in the clouds:
-Genesis Ge 1 9 15 And I will remember my covenant with you, and with every living soul that beareth flesh: and there shall no more be waters of a flood to destroy all flesh.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 16 And the bow shall be in the clouds, and I shall see it, and shall remember the everlasting covenant, that was made between God and every living soul of all flesh which is upon the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 17 And God said to Noe: This shall be the sign of the covenant, which I have established, between me and all flesh upon the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 18 And the sons of Noe, who came out of the ark, were Sem, Cham, and Japheth: and Cham is the father of Chanaan.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 19 These three are the sons of Noe: and from these was all mankind spread over the whole earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 20 And Noe a husbandman began to till the ground, and planted a vineyard.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 21 And drinking of the wine was made drunk, and was uncovered in his tent.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 22 Which when Cham the father of Chanaan had seen, to wit, that his father’s nakedness was uncovered, he told it to his two brethren without.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 23 But Sem and Japheth put a cloak upon their shoulders, and going backward, covered the nakedness of their father: and their faces were turned away, and they saw not their father’s nakedness.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 24 And Noe awaking from the wine, when he had learned what his younger son had done to him,
-Genesis Ge 1 9 25 He said: Cursed be Chanaan, a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 26 And he said: Blessed be the Lord God of Sem, be Chanaan his servant.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 27 May God enlarge Japheth, and may he dwell in the tents of Sem, and Chanaan be his servant.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 28 And Noe lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
-Genesis Ge 1 9 29 And all his days were in the whole nine hundred and fifty years: and he died.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 1 These are the generations of the sons of Noe: Sem, Cham, and Japheth: and unto them sons were born after the flood.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 2 The sons of Japheth: Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Thubal, and Mosoch, and Thiras.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 3 And the sons of Gomer: Ascenez and Riphath and Thogorma.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 4 And the sons of Javan: Elisa and Tharsis, Cetthim and Dodanim.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 5 By these were divided the islands of the Gentiles in their lands, every one according to his tongue and their families in their nations.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 6 And the Sons of Cham: Chus, and Mesram, and Phuth, and Chanaan.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 7 And the sons of Chus: Saba, and Hevila, and Sabatha, and Regma, and Sabatacha. The sons of Regma: Saba, and Dadan.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 8 Now Chus begot Nemrod: he began to be mighty on the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 9 And he was a stout hunter before the Lord. Hence came a proverb: Even as Nemrod the stout hunter before the Lord.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babylon, and Arach, and Achad, and Chalanne in the land of Sennaar.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 11 Out of that land came forth Assur, and built Ninive, and the streets of the city, and Chale.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 12 Resen also between Ninive and Chale: this is the great city.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 13 And Mesraim begot Ludim, and Anamim and Laabim, Nephthuim.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 14 And Phetrusim, and Chasluim; of whom came forth the Philistines, and the Capthorim.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 15 And Chanaan begot Sidon his firstborn, the Hethite,
-Genesis Ge 1 10 16 And the Jebusite, and the Amorrhite, and the Gergesite.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 17 The Hevite and Aracite: the Sinite,
-Genesis Ge 1 10 18 And the Aradian, the Samarite, and the Hamathite: and afterwards the families of the Chanaanites were spread abroad.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 19 And the limits of Chanaan were from Sidon as one comes to Gerara even to Gaza, until thou enter Sodom and Gomorrha, and Adama, and Seboim even to Lesa.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 20 These are the children of Cham in their kindreds and tongues, and generations, and lands, and nations.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 21 Of Sem also the father of all the children of Heber, the elder brother of Japheth, sons were born.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 22 The sons of Sem: Elam and Assur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 23 The sons of Aram: Us, and Hull, and Gether; and Mes.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 24 But Arphaxad begot Sale, of whom was born Heber.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 25 And to Heber were born two sons: the name of the one was Phaleg, because in his days was the earth divided: and his brother’s name Jectan.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 26 Which Jectan begot Elmodad, and Saleph, and Asarmoth, Jare,
-Genesis Ge 1 10 27 And Aduram, and Uzal, and Decla,
-Genesis Ge 1 10 28 And Ebal, and Abimael, Saba,
-Genesis Ge 1 10 29 And Ophir, and Hevila, and Jobab. All these were the sons of Jectan.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 30 And their dwelling was from Messa as we go on as far as Sephar, a mountain in the east.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 31 These are the children of Sem according to their kindreds and tongues, and countries in their nations.
-Genesis Ge 1 10 32 These are the families of Noe, according to their people and nations. By these were the nations divided on the earth after the flood.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 1 And the earth was of one tongue, and of the same speech.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 2 And when they removed from the east, they found a plain in the land of Sennaar, and dwelt in it.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 3 And each one said to his neighbour: Come let us make brick, and bake them with fire. And they had brick instead of stones, and slime instead of mortar:
-Genesis Ge 1 11 4 And they said: Come, let us make a city and a tower, the top whereof may reach to heaven; and let us make our name famous before we be scattered abroad into all lands.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 5 And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of Adam were building.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 6 And he said: Behold, it is one people, and all have one tongue: and they have begun to do this, neither will they leave off from their designs, till they accomplish them in deed.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 7 Come ye, therefore, let us go down, and there confound their tongue, that they may not understand one another’s speech.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 8 And so the Lord scattered them from that place into all lands, and they ceased to build the city.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 9 And therefore the name thereof was called Babel, because there the language of the whole earth was confounded: and from thence the Lord scattered them abroad upon the face of all countries.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 10 These are the generations of Sem: Sem was a hundred years old when he begot Arphaxad, two years after the flood.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 11 And Sem lived after he begot Arphaxad, five hundred years, and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 12 And Arphaxad lived thirty-five years, and begot Sale.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 13 And Arphaxad lived after he begot Sale, three hundred and three years, and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 14 Sale also lived thirty years, and begot Heber.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 15 And Sale lived after he begot Heber, four hundred and three years: and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 16 And Heber lived thirty-four years, and begot Phaleg.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 17 And Heber lived after he begot Phaleg, four hundred and thirty years: and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 18 Phaleg also lived thirty years, and begot Reu.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 19 And Phaleg lived after he begot Reu, two hundred and nine years, and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 20 And Reu lived thirty-two years, and begot Sarug.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 21 And Reu lived after he begot Sarug, two hundred and seven years, and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 22 And Sarug lived thirty years, and begot Nachor.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 23 And Sarug lived after he begot Nachor, two hundred years, and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 24 And Nachor lived nine and twenty years, and begot Thare.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 25 And Nachor lived after he begot Thare, a hundred and nineteen years, and begot sons and daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 26 And Thare lived seventy years, and begot Abram, and Nachor, and Aran.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 27 And these are the generations of Thare: Thare begot Abram, Nachor, and Aran. And Aran begot Lot.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 28 And Aran died before Thare his father, in the land of his nativity in Ur of the Chaldees.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 29 And Abram and Nachor married wives: the name of Abram’s wife was Sarai: and the name of Nachor’s wife, Melcha, the daughter of Aran, father of Melcha and father of Jescha.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 30 And Sarai was barren, and had no children.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 31 And Thare took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Aran, his son’s son, and Sarai his daughter in law, the wife of Abram his son, and brought them out of Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Chanaan: and they came as far as Haran, and dwelt there.
-Genesis Ge 1 11 32 And the days of Thare were two hundred and five years, and he died in Haran.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 1 And the Lord said to Abram: Go forth out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and out of thy father’s house, and come into the land which I shall shew thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and magnify thy name, and thou shalt be blessed.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 3 I will bless them that bless thee, and curse them that curse thee, and IN THEE shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 4 So Abram went out as the Lord had commanded him, and Lot went with him: Abram was seventy-five years old when he went forth from Haran.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 5 And he took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother’s son, and all the substance which they had gathered, and the souls which they had gotten in Haran: and they went out to go into the land of Chanaan. And when they were come into it,
-Genesis Ge 1 12 6 Abram passed through the country unto the place of Sichem, as far as the noble vale: now the Chanaanite was at that time in the land.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 7 And the Lord appeared to Abram, and said to him: To thy seed will I give this land. And he built there an altar to the Lord, who had appeared to him.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 8 And passing on from thence to a mountain, that was on the east side of Bethel, he there pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east: he built there also an altar to the Lord, and called upon his name.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 9 And Abram went forward, going and proceeding on to the south.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 10 And there came a famine in the country: and Abram went down into Egypt, to sojourn there: for the famine was very grievous in the land.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 11 And when he was near to enter into Egypt, he said to Sarai his wife: I know that thou art a beautiful woman:
-Genesis Ge 1 12 12 And that when the Egyptians shall see thee, they will say: She is his wife: and they will kill me, and keep thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 13 Say, therefore, I pray thee, that thou art my sister: that I may be well used for thee, and that my soul may live for thy sake.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 14 And when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians saw the woman that she was very beautiful.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 15 And the princes told Pharao, and praised her before him: and the woman was taken into the house of Pharao.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 16 And they used Abram well for her sake. And he had sheep and oxen and he asses, and men servants, and maid servants, and she asses, and camels.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 17 But the Lord scourged Pharao and his house with most grievous stripes for Sarai, Abram’s wife.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 18 And Pharao called Abram, and said to him: What is this that thou hast done to me? Why didst thou not tell me that she was thy wife?
-Genesis Ge 1 12 19 For what cause didst thou say, she was thy sister, that I might take her to my wife? Now therefore there is thy wife, take her, and go thy way.
-Genesis Ge 1 12 20 And Pharao gave his men orders concerning Abram: and they led him away and his wife, and all that he had.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 1 And Abram went up out of Egypt, he and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him into the south.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 2 And he was very rich in possession of gold and silver.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 3 And he returned by the way, that he came, from the south to Bethel, to the place where before he had pitched his tent between Bethel and Hai,
-Genesis Ge 1 13 4 In the place of the altar which he had made before, and there he called upon the name of the Lord.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 5 But Lot also, who was with Abram, had flocks of sheep, and herds of beasts, and tents.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 6 Neither was the land able to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, and they could not dwell together.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 7 Whereupon also there arose a strife between the herdsmen of Abram and of Lot. And at that time the Chanaanite and the Pherezite dwelled in that country.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 8 Abram therefore said to Lot: Let there be no quarrel, I beseech thee, between me and thee, and between my herdsmen and thy herdsmen: for we are brethren.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 9 Behold the whole land is before thee: depart from me, I pray thee: if thou wilt go to the left hand, I will take the right: if thou choose the right hand, I will pass to the left.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 10 And Lot lifting up his eyes, saw all the country about the Jordan, which was watered throughout, before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrha, as the paradise of the Lord, and like Egypt as one comes to Segor.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 11 And Lot chose to himself the country about the Jordan, and he departed from the east: and they were separated one brother from the other.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 12 Abram dwelt in the land of Chanaan: and Lot abode in the towns, that were about the Jordan, and dwelt in Sodom.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 13 And the men of Sodom were very wicked, and sinners before the face of the Lord beyond measure.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 14 And the Lord said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him: Lift up thy eyes, and look from the place wherein thou now art, to the north and to the south, to the east and to the west.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 15 All the land which thou seest, I will give to thee, and to thy seed for ever.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 16 And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: if any man be able to number the dust of the earth, he shall be able to number thy seed also.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 17 Arise and walk through the land in the length, and the breadth thereof: for I will give it to thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 13 18 So Abram removing his tent, came, and dwelt by the vale of Mambre, which is in Hebron: and he built there an altar to the Lord.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 1 And it came to pass at that time, that Amraphel, king of Sennaar, and Arioch, king of Pontus, and Chodorlahomor, king of the Elamites, and Thadal, king of nations,
-Genesis Ge 1 14 2 Made war against Bara, king of Sodom, and against Bersa, king of Gomorrha, and against Sennaab, king of Adama, and against Semeber, king of Seboim, and against the king of Bala, which is Segor.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 3 All these came together into the woodland vale, which now is the salt sea.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 4 For they had served Chodorlahomor twelve years, and in the thirteenth year they revolted from him.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 5 And in the fourteenth year came Chodorlahomor, and the kings that were with him: and they smote the Raphaim in Astarothcarnaim, and the Zuzim with them, and the Emim in Save of Cariathaim.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 6 And the Chorreans in the mountains of Seir, even to the plains of Pharan, which is in the wilderness.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 7 And they returned, and came to the fountain of Misphat, the same is Cades: and they smote all the country of the Amalecites, and the Amorrhean that dwelt in Asasonthamar.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 8 And the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrha, and the king of Adama, and the king of Seboim, and the king of Bala, which is Segor, went out: and they set themselves against them in battle array, in the woodland vale:
-Genesis Ge 1 14 9 To wit, against Chodorlahomor king of the Elamites, and Thadal king of nations, and Amraphel king of Sennaar, and Arioch king of Pontus: four kings against five.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 10 Now the woodland vale had many pits of slime. And the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrha turned their backs, and were overthrown there: and they that remained, fled to the mountain.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 11 And they took all the substance of the Sodomites, and Gomorrhites, and all their victuals, and went their way:
-Genesis Ge 1 14 12 And Lot also, the son of Abram’s brother, who dwelt in Sodom, and his substance.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 13 And behold one, that had escaped, told Abram the Hebrew, who dwelt in the vale of Mambre the Amorrhite, the brother of Escol, and the brother of Aner: for these had made a league with Abram.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 14 Which when Abram had heard, to wit, that his brother Lot was taken, he numbered of the servants born in his house, three hundred and eighteen, well appointed: and pursued them to Dan.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 15 And dividing his company, he rushed upon them in the night, and defeated them: and pursued them as far as Hoba, which is on the left hand of Damascus.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 16 And he brought back all the substance, and Lot his brother, with his substance, the women also, and the people.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 17 And the king of Sodom went out to meet him, after he returned from the slaughter of Chodorlahomor, and of the kings that were with him in the vale of Save, which is the king’s vale.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 18 But Melchisedech, the king of Salem, bringing forth bread and wine, for he was the priest of the most high God,
-Genesis Ge 1 14 19 Blessed him, and said: Blessed be Abram by the most high God, who created heaven and earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 20 And blessed be the most high God, by whose protection, the enemies are in thy hands. And he gave him the tithes of all.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 21 And the king of Sodom said to Abram: Give me the persons, and the rest take to thyself.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 22 And he answered him: I lift up my hand to the Lord God the most high, the possessor of heaven and earth,
-Genesis Ge 1 14 23 That from the very woof thread unto the shoe latchet, I will not take of any things that are thine, lest thou say: I have enriched Abram.
-Genesis Ge 1 14 24 Except such things as the young men have eaten, and the shares of the men that came with me, Aner, Escol, and Mambre: these shall take their shares.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 1 Now when these things were done, the word of the Lord came to Abram by a vision, saying: Fear not, Abram, I am thy protector, and thy reward exceeding great.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 2 And Abram said: Lord God, what wilt thou give me? I shall go without children: and the son of the steward of my house is this Damascus Eliezer.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 3 And Abram added: But to me thou hast not given seed: and lo my servant born in my house, shall be my heir.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 4 And immediately the word of the Lord came to him, saying : He shall not be thy heir: but he that shall come out of thy bowels, him shalt thou have for thy heir.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 5 And he brought him forth abroad, and said to him: Look up to heaven and number the stars if thou canst. And he said to him: So shall thy seed be.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 6 Abram believed God, and it was reputed to him unto justice.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 7 And he said to him: I am the Lord who brought thee out from Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land, and that thou mightest possess it.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 8 But he said: Lord God, whereby may I know that I shall possess it?
-Genesis Ge 1 15 9 And the Lord answered, and said: Take me a cow of three years old, and a she-goat of three years. and a ram of three years, a turtle also, and a pigeon.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 10 And he took all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid the two pieces of each one against the other: but the birds he divided not.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 11 And the fowls came down upon the carcasses, and Abram drove them away.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 12 And when the sun was setting, a deep sleep fell upon Abram, and a great and darksome horror seized upon him.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 13 And it was said unto him: Know thou beforehand that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land not their own, and they shall bring them under bondage, and afflict them four hundred years.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 14 But I will judge the nation which they shall serve, and after this they shall come out with great substance.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 15 And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace, and be buried in a good old age.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 16 But in the fourth generation they shall return hither: for as yet the iniquities of the Amorrhites are not at the full until this present time.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 17 And when the sun was set, there arose a dark mist, and there appeared a smoking furnace, and a lamp of fire passing between those divisions.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 18 That day God made a covenant with Abram, saying: To thy seed will I give this land, from the river to Egypt even to the great river Euphrates.
-Genesis Ge 1 15 19 The Cineans, and Cenezites, the Cedmonites,
-Genesis Ge 1 15 20 And the Hethites, and the Pherezites, the Raphaim also,
-Genesis Ge 1 15 21 And the Amorrhites, and the Chanaanites, and the Gergesites, and the Jebusites.
-Genesis Ge 1 16 1 Now Sarai, the wife of Abram, had brought forth no children: but having a handmaid, an Egyptian, named Agar,
-Genesis Ge 1 16 2 She said to her husband: Behold, the Lord hath restrained me from bearing: go in unto my handmaid, it may be I may have children of her at least. And when he agreed to her request,
-Genesis Ge 1 16 3 She took Agar the Egyptian her handmaid, ten years after they first dwelt in the land of Chanaan, and gave her to her husband to wife.
-Genesis Ge 1 16 4 And he went in to her. But she perceiving that she was with child, despised her mistress.
-Genesis Ge 1 16 5 And Sarai said to Abram: Thou dost unjustly with me: I gave my handmaid into thy bosom, and she perceiving herself to be with child, despiseth me. The Lord judge between me and thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 16 6 And Abram made answer, and said to her: Behold thy handmaid is in thy own hand, use her as it pleaseth thee. And when Sarai afflicted her, she ran away.
-Genesis Ge 1 16 7 And the angel of the Lord having found her, by a fountain of water in the wilderness, which is in the way to Sur in the desert,
-Genesis Ge 1 16 8 He said to her: Agar, handmaid of Sarai, whence comest thou? and whither goest thou? And she answered: I flee from the face of Sarai, my mistress.
-Genesis Ge 1 16 9 And the angel of the Lord said to her: Return to thy mistress, and humble thyself under her hand.
-Genesis Ge 1 16 10 And again he said: I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, and it shall not be numbered for multitude.
-Genesis Ge 1 16 11 And again: Behold, said he, thou art with child, and thou shalt bring forth a son: and thou shalt call his name Ismael, because the Lord hath heard thy affliction.
-Genesis Ge 1 16 12 He shall be a wild man: his hand will be against all men, and all men’s hands against him: and he shall pitch his tents over against all his brethren.
-Genesis Ge 1 16 13 And she called the name of the Lord that spoke unto her: Thou the God who hast seen me. For she said: Verily, here have I seen the hinder parts of him that seeth me.
-Genesis Ge 1 16 14 Therefore she called that well, the well of him that liveth and seeth me. The same is between Cades and Barad.
-Genesis Ge 1 16 15 And Agar brought forth a son to Abram: who called his name Ismael.
-Genesis Ge 1 16 16 Abram was four score and six years old when Agar brought him forth Ismael.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 1 And after he began to be ninety and nine years old, the Lord appeared to him: and said unto him: I am the Almighty God: walk before me, and be perfect.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 2 And I will make my covenant between me and thee: and I will multiply thee exceedingly.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 3 Abram fell flat on his face.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 4 And God said to him: I am, and my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 5 Neither shall thy name be called any more Abram: but thou shalt be called Abraham: because I have made thee a father of many nations.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 6 And I will make thee increase exceedingly, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee, and between thy seed after thee in their generations, by a perpetual covenant: to be a God to thee, and to thy seed after thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 8 And I will give to thee, and to thy seed, the land of thy sojournment, all the land of Chanaan, for a perpetual possession, and I will be their God.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 9 Again God said to Abraham: And thou therefore shalt keep my covenant, and thy seed after thee in their generations.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 10 This is my covenant which you shall observe between me and you, and thy seed after thee: All the male-kind of you shall be circumcised.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 11 And you shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, that it may be for a sign of the covenant between me and you.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 12 An infant of eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every manchild in your generations: he that is born in the house, as well as the bought servant, shall be circumcised, and whosoever is not of your stock:
-Genesis Ge 1 17 13 And my covenant shall be in your flesh for a perpetual covenant.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 14 The male whose flesh of his foreskin shall not be circumcised, that soul shall be destroyed out of his people: because he hath broken my covenant.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 15 God said also to Abraham: Sarai thy wife thou shalt not call Sarai, but Sara.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 16 And I will bless her, and of her I will give thee a son, whom I will bless, and he shall become nations, and kings of people shall spring from him.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 17 Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, saying in his heart: Shall a son, thinkest thou, be born to him that is a hundred years old? and shall Sara that is ninety years old bring forth?
-Genesis Ge 1 17 18 And he said to God: O that Ismael may live before thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 19 And God said to Abraham: Sara thy wife shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name Isaac, and I will establish my covenant with him for a perpetual covenant, and with his seed after him.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 20 And as for Ismael I have also heard thee. Behold, I will bless him, and increase, and multiply him exceedingly: he shall beget twelve chiefs, and I will make him a great nation.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 21 But my covenant I will establish with Isaac, whom Sara shall bring forth to thee at this time in the next year.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 22 And when he had left off speaking with him, God went up from Abraham.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 23 And Abraham took Ismael his son, and all that were born in his house: and all whom he had bought, every male among the men of his house: and he circumcised the flesh of their foreskin forthwith the very same day, as God had commanded him.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 24 Abraham was ninety and nine years old, when he circumcised the flesh of his foreskin.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 25 And Ismael his son was full thirteen years old at the time of his circumcision.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 26 The self-same day was Abraham circumcised and Ismael his son.
-Genesis Ge 1 17 27 And all the men of his house, as well they that were born in his house, as the bought servants and strangers, were circumcised with him.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 1 And the Lord appeared to him in the vale of Mambre as he was sitting at the door of his tent, in the very heat of the day.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 2 And when he had lifted up his eyes, there appeared to him three men standing near to him: and as soon as he saw them, he ran to meet them from the door of his tent, and adored down to the ground.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 3 And he said: Lord, if I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away from thy servant.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 4 But I will fetch a little water, and wash ye your feet, and rest ye under the tree.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 5 And I will set a morsel of bread, and strengthen ye your heart, afterwards you shall pass on: for therefore are you come aside to your servant. And they said: Do as thou hast spoken.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 6 Abraham made haste into the tent to Sara, and said to her: Make haste, temper together three measures of flour, and make cakes upon the hearth.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 7 And he himself ran to the herd, and took from thence a calf, very tender and very good, and gave it to a young man, who made haste and boiled it.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 8 He took also butter and milk, and the calf which he had boiled, and set before them: but he stood by them under the tree.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 9 And when they had eaten, they said to him: Where is Sara thy wife? He answered: Lo she is in the tent.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 10 And he said to him: I will return and come to thee at this time, life accompanying, and Sara, thy wife, shall have a son. Which when Sara heard, she laughed behind the door of the tent.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 11 Now they were both old, and far advanced in years, and it had ceased to be with Sara after the manner of women.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 12 And she laughed secretly, saying: After I am grown old, and my lord is an old man, shall I give myself to pleasure?
-Genesis Ge 1 18 13 And the Lord said to Abraham: Why did Sara laugh, saying: Shall I, who am an old woman, bear a child indeed?
-Genesis Ge 1 18 14 Is there any thing hard to God? According to appointment I will return to thee at this same time, life accompanying, and Sara shall have a son.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 15 Sara denied, saying: I did not laugh: for she was afraid. But the Lord said: Nay; but thou didst laugh.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 16 And when the men rose up from thence, they turned their eyes towards Sodom: and Abraham walked with them, bringing them on the way.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 17 And the Lord said: Can I hide from Abraham what I am about to do:
-Genesis Ge 1 18 18 Seeing he shall become a great and mighty nation, and in him all the nations of the earth shall be blessed?
-Genesis Ge 1 18 19 For I know that he will command his children, and his household after him, to keep the way of the Lord, and do judgment and justice: that for Abraham’s sake, the Lord may bring to effect all the things he hath spoken unto him.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 20 And the Lord said: The cry of Sodom and Gomorrha is multiplied, and their sin is become exceedingly grievous.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 21 I will go down and see whether they have done according to the cry that is come to me; or whether it be not so, that I may know.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 22 And they turned themselves from thence, and went their way to Sodom: but Abraham as yet stood before the Lord.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 23 And drawing nigh, he said: Wilt thou destroy the just with the wicked?
-Genesis Ge 1 18 24 If there be fifty just men in the city, shall they perish withal? and wilt thou not spare that place for the sake of the fifty just, if they be therein?
-Genesis Ge 1 18 25 Far be it from thee to do this thing, and to slay the just with the wicked, and for the just to be in like case as the wicked; this is not beseeming thee: thou who judgest all the earth, wilt not make this judgment.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 26 And the Lord said to him: If I find in Sodom fifty just within the city, I will spare the whole place for their sake.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 27 And Abraham answered, and said: Seeing I have once begun, I will speak to my Lord, whereas I am dust and ashes.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 28 What if there be five less than fifty just persons? wilt thou for five and forty destroy the whole city: And he said: I will not destroy it, if I find five and forty.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 29 And again he said to him: But if forty be found there, what wilt thou do? He said: I will not destroy it for the sake of forty.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 30 Lord, saith he, be not angry, I beseech thee, if I speak: What if thirty shall be found there? He answered: I will not do it, if I find thirty there.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 31 Seeing, saith he, I have once begun, I will speak to my Lord: What if twenty be found there? He said: I will not destroy it for the sake of twenty.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 32 I beseech thee, saith he, be not angry, Lord, if I speak yet once more: What if ten shall be found there? And he said: I will not destroy it for the sake of ten.
-Genesis Ge 1 18 33 And the Lord departed, after he had left speaking to Abraham: and Abraham returned to his place.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 1 And the two angels came to Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gate of the city. And seeing them, he rose up and went to meet them: and worshipped prostrate to the ground.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 2 And said: I beseech you, my lords, turn in to the house of your servant, and lodge there: wash your feet, and in the morning you shall go on your way. And they said: No, but we will abide in the street.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 3 He pressed them very much to turn in unto him: and when they were come into his house, he made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread, and they ate:
-Genesis Ge 1 19 4 But before they went to bed, the men of the city beset the house, both young and old, all the people together.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 5 And they called Lot, and said to him: Where are the men that came in to thee at night? bring them out hither, that we may know them:
-Genesis Ge 1 19 6 Lot went out to them, and shut the door after him, and said:
-Genesis Ge 1 19 7 Do not so, I beseech you, my brethren, do not commit this evil.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 8 I have two daughters who, as yet, have not known man; I will bring them out to you, and abuse you them as it shall please you, so that you do no evil to these men, because they are come in under the shadow of my roof.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 9 But they said: Get thee back thither. And again: Thou camest in, said they, as a stranger, was it to be a judge? therefore we will afflict thee more than them. And they pressed very violently upon Lot: and they were even at the point of breaking open the doors.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 10 And behold the men put out their hand, and drew in Lot unto them, and shut the door.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 11 And them, that were without, they struck with blindness from the least to the greatest, so that they could not find the door.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 12 And they said to Lot: Hast thou here any of thine? son in law, or sons, or daughters, all that are thine bring them out of this city:
-Genesis Ge 1 19 13 For we will destroy this place, because their cry is grown loud before the Lord, who hath sent us to destroy them.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 14 So Lot went out, and spoke to his sons in law that were to have his daughters, and said: Arise: get you out of this place, because the Lord will destroy this city. And he seemed to them to speak as it were in jest.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 15 And when it was morning, the angels pressed him, saying: Arise, take thy wife, and the two daughters that thou hast: lest thou also perish in the wickedness of the city.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 16 And as he lingered, they took his hand, and the hand of his wife, and of his two daughters, because the Lord spared him.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 17 And they brought him forth, and set him without the city: and there they spoke to him, saying: Save thy life: look not back, neither stay thou in all the country about: but save thy self in the mountain, lest thou be also consumed.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 18 And Lot said to them: I beseech thee, my Lord,
-Genesis Ge 1 19 19 Because thy servant hath found grace before thee, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewn to me, in saving my life, and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil seize me, and I die.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 20 There is this city here at hand, to which I may flee, it is a little one, and I shall be saved in it: is it not a little one, and my soul shall live?
-Genesis Ge 1 19 21 And he said to him: Behold also in this, I have heard thy prayers, not to destroy the city for which thou hast spoken.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 22 Make haste, and be saved there: because I cannot do any thing till thou go in thither. Therefore the name of that city was called Segor.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 23 The sun was risen upon the earth, and Lot entered into Segor.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 24 And the Lord rained upon Sodom and Gomorrha brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 25 And he destroyed these cities, and all the country about, all the inhabitants of the cities, and all things that spring from the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 26 And his wife looking behind her, was turned into a statue of salt.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 27 And Abraham got up early in the morning, and in the place where he had stood before with the Lord:
-Genesis Ge 1 19 28 He looked towards Sodom and Gomorrha, and the whole land of that country: and he saw the ashes rise up from the earth as the smoke of a furnace.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 29 Now when God destroyed the cities of that country, remembering Abraham, he delivered Lot out of the destruction of the cities wherein he had dwelt.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 30 And Lot went up out of Segor, and abode in the mountain, and his two daughters with him (for he was afraid to stay in Segor) and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters with him.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 31 And the elder said to the younger: Our father is old, and there is no man left on the earth, to come in unto us after the manner of the whole earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 32 Come, let us make him drunk with wine, and let us lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 33 And they made their father drink wine that night: and the elder went in, and lay with her father: but he perceived not, neither when his daughter lay down, nor when she rose up.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 34 And the next day the elder said to the younger: Behold I lay last night with my father, let us make him drink wine also to night, and thou shalt lie with him, that we may save seed of our father.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 35 They made their father drink wine that night also, and the younger daughter went in, and lay with him: and neither then did he perceive when she lay down, nor when she rose up.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 36 So the two daughters of Lot were with child by their father.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 37 And the elder bore a son, and she called his name Moab: he is the father of the Moabites unto this day.
-Genesis Ge 1 19 38 The younger also bore a son, and she called his name Ammon; that is, the son of my people: he is the father of the Ammonites unto this day.
-Genesis Ge 1 20 1 Abraham removed from thence to the south country, and dwelt between Cades and Sur, and sojourned in Gerara.
-Genesis Ge 1 20 2 And he said of Sara his wife: She is my sister. So Abimelech the king of Gerara sent, and took her.
-Genesis Ge 1 20 3 And God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and he said to him: Lo thou shalt die for the woman that thou hast taken: for she hath a husband.
-Genesis Ge 1 20 4 Now Abimelech had not touched her, and he said: Lord, wilt thou slay a nation that is ignorant and just?
-Genesis Ge 1 20 5 Did not he say to me: She is my sister: and she say, He is my brother? in the simplicity of my heart, and cleanness of my hands have I done this.
-Genesis Ge 1 20 6 And God said to him: And I know that thou didst it with a sincere heart: and therefore I withheld thee from sinning against me, and I suffered thee not to touch her.
-Genesis Ge 1 20 7 Now therefore restore the man his wife, for he is a prophet: and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live: but if thou wilt not restore her, know that thou shalt surely die, thou and all that are thine.
-Genesis Ge 1 20 8 And Abimelech forthwith rising up in the night, called all his servants: and spoke all these words in their hearing, and all the men were exceedingly afraid.
-Genesis Ge 1 20 9 And Abimelech called also for Abraham, and said to him: What hast thou done to us? what have we offended thee in, that thou hast brought upon me and upon my kingdom a great sin? thou hast done to us what thou oughtest not to do.
-Genesis Ge 1 20 10 And again he expostulated with him, and said: What sawest thou, that thou hast done this?
-Genesis Ge 1 20 11 Abraham answered: I thought with myself, saying: Perhaps there is not the fear of God in this place: and they will kill me for the sake of my wife:
-Genesis Ge 1 20 12 Howbeit, otherwise also she is truly my sister, the daughter of my father, and not the daughter of my mother, and I took her to wife.
-Genesis Ge 1 20 13 And after God brought me out of my father’s house, I said to her: Thou shalt do me this kindness: In every place, to which we shall come, thou shalt say that I am thy brother.
-Genesis Ge 1 20 14 And Abimelech took sheep and oxen, and servants and handmaids, and gave to Abraham: and restored to him Sara his wife,
-Genesis Ge 1 20 15 And said: The land is before you, dwell wheresoever it shall please thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 20 16 And to Sara he said: Behold I have given thy brother a thousand pieces of silver, this shall serve thee for a covering of thy eyes to all that are with thee, and whithersoever thou shalt go: and remember thou wast taken.
-Genesis Ge 1 20 17 And when Abraham prayed, God healed Abimelech and his wife, and his handmaids, and they bore children:
-Genesis Ge 1 20 18 For the Lord had closed up every womb of the house of Abimelech, on account of Sara, Abraham’s wife.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 1 And the Lord visited Sara, as he had promised: and fulfilled what he had spoken.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 2 And she conceived and bore a son in her old age, at the time that God had foretold her.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 3 And Abraham called the name of his son, whom Sara bore him, Isaac.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 4 And he circumcised him the eighth day, as God had commanded him,
-Genesis Ge 1 21 5 When he was a hundred years old: for at this age of his father, was Isaac born.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 6 And Sara said: God hath made a laughter for me: whosoever shall hear of it will laugh with me.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 7 And again she said: Who would believe that Abraham should hear that Sara gave suck to a son, whom she bore to him in his old age?
-Genesis Ge 1 21 8 And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast on the day of his weaning.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 9 And when Sara had seen the son of Agar, the Egyptian, playing with Isaac, her son, she said to Abraham:
-Genesis Ge 1 21 10 Cast out this bondwoman and her son; for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with my son Isaac.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 11 Abraham took this grievously for his son.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 12 And God said to him: Let it not seem grievous to thee for the boy, and for thy bondwoman: in all that Sara hath said to thee, hearken to her voice: for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 13 But I will make the son also of the bondwoman a great nation, because he is thy seed.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 14 So Abraham rose up in the morning, and taking bread and a bottle of water, put it upon her shoulder, and delivered the boy, and sent her away. And she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Bersabee.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 15 And when the water in the bottle was spent, she cast the boy under one of the trees that were there.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 16 And she went her way, and sat over against him a great way off, as far as a bow can carry, for she said: I will not see the boy die: and sitting over against, she lifted up her voice and wept.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 17 And God heard the voice of the boy: and an angel of God called to Agar from heaven, saying: What art thou doing, Agar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the boy, from the place wherein he is.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 18 Arise, take up the boy, and hold him by the hand, for I will make him a great nation.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 19 And God opened her eyes: and she saw a well of water, and went and filled the bottle, and gave the boy to drink.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 20 And God was with him: and he grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became a young man, an archer.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 21 And he dwelt in the wilderness of Pharan, and his mother took a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 22 At the same time Abimelech, and Phicol the general of his army, said to Abraham: God is with thee in all that thou dost.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 23 Swear therefore by God, that thou wilt not hurt me, nor my posterity, nor my stock: but according to the kindness that I have done to thee, thou shalt do to me, and to the land wherein thou hast lived a stranger.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 24 And Abraham said: I will swear.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 25 And he reproved Abimelech for a well of water, which his servants had taken away by force.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 26 And Abimelech answered: I knew not who did this thing: and thou didst not tell me, and I heard not of it till today.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 27 Then Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them to Abimelech: and both of them made a league.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 28 And Abraham set apart seven ewelambs of the flock.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 29 And Abimelech said to him: What mean these seven ewelambs which thou hast set apart?
-Genesis Ge 1 21 30 But he said: Thou shalt take seven ewelambs at my hand: that they may be a testimony for me, that I dug this well.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 31 Therefore that place was called Bersabee; because there both of them did swear.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 32 And they made a league for the well of oath.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 33 And Abimelech and Phicol, the general of his army, arose and returned to the land of the Palestines. But Abraham planted a grove in Bersabee, and there called upon the name of the Lord God eternal.
-Genesis Ge 1 21 34 And he was a sojourner in the land of the Palestines many days.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 1 After these things, God tempted Abraham, and said to him: Abraham, Abraham. And he answered: Here I am.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 2 He said to him: Take thy only begotten son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and go into the land of vision; and there thou shalt offer him for an holocaust upon one of the mountains which I will shew thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 3 So Abraham rising up in the night, saddled his ass, and took with him two young men, and Isaac his son: and when he had cut wood for the holocaust, he went his way to the place which God had commanded him.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 4 And on the third day, lifting up his eyes, he saw the place afar off.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 5 And he said to his young men: Stay you here with the ass; I and the boy will go with speed as far as yonder, and after we have worshipped, will return to you.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 6 And he took the wood for the holocaust, and laid it upon Isaac his son; and he himself carried in his hands fire and a sword. And as they two went on together,
-Genesis Ge 1 22 7 Isaac said to his father: My father. And he answered: What wilt thou, son? Behold, saith he, fire and wood: where is the victim for the holocaust?
-Genesis Ge 1 22 8 And Abraham said: God will provide himself a victim for an holocaust, my son. So they went on together.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 9 And they came to the place which God had shewn him, where he built an altar, and laid the wood in order upon it; and when he had bound Isaac his son, he laid him on the altar upon the pile of wood.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 10 And he put forth his hand, and took the sword, to sacrifice his son.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 11 And behold, an angel of the Lord from heaven called to him, saying: Abraham, Abraham. And he answered: Here I am.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 12 And he said to him: Lay not thy hand upon the boy, neither do thou any thing to him: now I know that thou fearest God, and hast not spared thy only begotten son for my sake.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 13 Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw behind his back a ram, amongst the briers, sticking fast by the horns, which he took and offered for a holocaust instead of his son.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 14 And he called the name of that place, The Lord seeth. Whereupon, even to this day, it is said: In the mountain the Lord will see.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 15 And the angel of the Lord called to Abraham a second time from heaven, saying:
-Genesis Ge 1 22 16 By my own self have I sworn, saith the Lord: because thou hast done this thing, and hast not spared thy only begotten son for my sake:
-Genesis Ge 1 22 17 I will bless thee, and I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that is by the sea shore; thy seed shall possess the gates of their enemies.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because thou hast obeyed my voice.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 19 Abraham returned to his young men, and they went to Bersabee together, and he dwelt there.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 20 After these things, it was told Abraham, that Melcha also had borne children to Nachor his brother.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 21 Hus, the firstborn, and Buz, his brother, and Camuel the father of the Syrians,
-Genesis Ge 1 22 22 And Cased, and Azau, and Pheldas, and Jedlaph,
-Genesis Ge 1 22 23 And Bathuel, of whom was born Rebecca: these eight did Melcha bear to Nachor, Abraham’s brother.
-Genesis Ge 1 22 24 And his concubine, named Roma, bore Tabee, and Gaham, and Tahas, and Maacha.
-Genesis Ge 1 23 1 And Sara lived a hundred and twenty-seven years.
-Genesis Ge 1 23 2 And she died in the city of Arbee which is Hebron, in the land of Chanaan: and Abraham came to mourn and weep for her.
-Genesis Ge 1 23 3 And after he rose up from the funeral obsequies, he spoke to the children of Heth, saying:
-Genesis Ge 1 23 4 I am a stranger and sojourner among you: give me the right of a burying place with you, that I may bury my dead.
-Genesis Ge 1 23 5 The children of Heth answered, saying:
-Genesis Ge 1 23 6 My lord, hear us, thou art a prince of God among us: bury thy dead in our principal sepulchres: and no man shall have power to hinder thee from burying thy dead in his sepulchre.
-Genesis Ge 1 23 7 Abraham rose up, and bowed down to the people of the land, to wit, the children of Heth:
-Genesis Ge 1 23 8 And said to them: If it please your soul that I should bury my dead, hear me, and intercede for me to Ephron the son of Seor.
-Genesis Ge 1 23 9 That he may give me the double cave, which he hath in the end of his field: For as much money as it is worth he shall give it me before you, for a possession of a burying place.
-Genesis Ge 1 23 10 Now Ephron dwelt in the midst of the children of Heth. And Ephron made answer to Abraham in the hearing of all that went in at the gate of the city, saying:
-Genesis Ge 1 23 11 Let it not be so, my lord, but do thou rather hearken to what I say: The field I deliver to thee, and the cave that is therein; in the presence of the children of my people, bury thy dead.
-Genesis Ge 1 23 12 Abraham bowed down before the people of the land.
-Genesis Ge 1 23 13 And he spoke to Ephron, in the presence of the people: I beseech thee to hear me: I will give money for the field; take it, and so will I bury my dead in it.
-Genesis Ge 1 23 14 And Ephron answered:
-Genesis Ge 1 23 15 My lord, hear me. The ground which thou desirest, is worth four hundred sicles of silver: this is the price between me and thee: but what is this? bury thy dead.
-Genesis Ge 1 23 16 And when Abraham had heard this, he weighed out the money that Ephron had asked, in the hearing of the children of Heth, four hundred sicles of silver, of common current money.
-Genesis Ge 1 23 17 And the field that before was Ephron’s, wherein was the double cave, looking towards Mambre, both it and the cave, and all the trees thereof, in all its limits round about,
-Genesis Ge 1 23 18 Was made sure to Abraham for a possession, in the sight of the children of Heth, and of all that went in at the gate of his city.
-Genesis Ge 1 23 19 And so Abraham buried Sara, his wife, in the double cave of the field, that looked towards Mambre, this is Hebron in the land of Chanaan.
-Genesis Ge 1 23 20 And the field was made sure to Abraham, and the cave that was in it, for a possession to bury in, by the children of Heth.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 1 Now Abraham was old, and advanced in age; and the Lord had blessed him in all things.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 2 And he said to the elder servant of his house, who was ruler over all he had: Put thy hand under my thigh,
-Genesis Ge 1 24 3 That I may make thee swear by the Lord, the God of heaven and earth, that thou take not a wife for my son, of the daughters of the Chanaanites, among whom I dwell:
-Genesis Ge 1 24 4 But that thou go to my own country and kindred, and take a wife from thence for my son Isaac.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 5 The servant answered: If the woman will not come with me into this land, must I bring thy son back again to the place from whence thou camest out?
-Genesis Ge 1 24 6 And Abraham said: Beware thou never bring my son back again thither.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 7 The Lord God of heaven, who took me out of my father’s house, and out of my native country, who spoke to me, and swore to me, saying: To thy seed will I give this land: he will send his angel before thee, and thou shalt take from thence a wife for my son.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 8 But if the woman will not follow thee, thou shalt not be bound by the oath: only bring not my son back thither again.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 9 The servant, therefore, put his hand under the thigh of Abraham, his lord, and swore to him upon his word.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 10 And he took ten camels of his master’s herd, and departed, carrying something of all his goods with him, and he set forward and went on to Mesopotamia, to the city of Nachor.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 11 And when he had made the camels lie down without the town, near a well of water, in the evening, at the time when women are wont to come out to draw water, he said:
-Genesis Ge 1 24 12 O Lord, the God of my master, Abraham, meet me today, I beseech thee, and shew kindness to my master, Abraham.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 13 Behold, I stand nigh the spring of water, and the daughters of the inhabitants of this city will come out to draw water:
-Genesis Ge 1 24 14 Now, therefore, the maid to whom I shall say: Let down thy pitcher that I may drink: and she shall answer, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: let it be the same whom thou hast provided for thy servant Isaac: and by this, I shall understand that thou hast shewn kindness to my master.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 15 He had not yet ended these words within himself, and behold Rebecca came out, the daughter of Bathuel, son of Melcha, wife to Nachor the brother of Abraham, having a pitcher on her shoulder:
-Genesis Ge 1 24 16 An exceeding comely maid, and a most beautiful virgin, and not known to man: and she went down to the spring, and filled her pitcher, and was coming back.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 17 And the servant ran to meet her, and said: Give me a little water to drink of thy pitcher.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 18 And she answered: Drink, my lord. And quickly she let down the pitcher upon her arm, and gave him drink.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 19 And when he had drunk, she said: I will draw water for thy camels also, till they all drink.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 20 And pouring out the pitcher into the troughs, she ran back to the well to draw water; and having drawn, she gave to all the camels.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 21 But he musing, beheld her with silence, desirous to know whether the Lord had made his journey prosperous or not.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 22 And after that the camels had drunk, the man took out golden earrings, weighing two sicles; and as many bracelets, of ten sicles weight.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 23 And he said to her: Whose daughter art thou? tell me: is there any place in thy father’s house to lodge?
-Genesis Ge 1 24 24 And she answered: I am the daughter of Bathuel, the son of Melcha, whom she bore to Nachor.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 25 And she said, moreover, to him: We have good store of both straw and hay, and a large place to lodge in.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 26 The man bowed himself down, and adored the Lord,
-Genesis Ge 1 24 27 Saying: Blessed be the Lord God of my master Abraham, who hath not taken away his mercy and truth from my master, and hath brought me the straight way into the house of my master’s brother.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 28 Then the maid ran, and told in her mother’s house all that she had heard.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 29 And Rebecca had a brother, named Laban, who went out in haste to the man, to the well.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 30 And when he had seen the earrings and bracelets in his sister’s hands, and had heard all that she related, saying, Thus and thus the man spoke to me: he came to the man who stood by the camels, and near to the spring of water,
-Genesis Ge 1 24 31 And said to him: Come in, thou blessed of the Lord; why standest thou without? I have prepared the house, and a place for the camels.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 32 And he brought him into his lodging; and he unharnessed the camels, and gave straw and hay, and water to wash his feet, and the feet of the men that were come with him.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 33 And bread was set before him. But he said: I will not eat, till I tell my message. He answered him: Speak.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 34 And he said: I am the servant of Abraham:
-Genesis Ge 1 24 35 And the Lord hath blessed my master wonderfully, and he is become great: and he hath given him sheep and oxen, silver and gold, men servants and women servants, camels and asses.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 36 And Sara, my master’s wife, hath borne my master a son in her old age, and he hath given him all that he had.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 37 And my master made me swear, saying: Thou shalt not take a wife for my son of the Chanaanites, in whose land I dwell:
-Genesis Ge 1 24 38 But thou shalt go to my father’s house, and shalt take a wife of my own kindred for my son:
-Genesis Ge 1 24 39 But I answered my master: What if the woman will not come with me?
-Genesis Ge 1 24 40 The Lord, said he, in whose sight I walk, will send his angel with thee, and will direct thy way: and thou shalt take a wife for my son of my own kindred, and of my father’s house.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 41 But thou shalt be clear from my curse, when thou shalt come to my kindred, if they will not give thee one.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 42 And I came today to the well of water, and said: O Lord God of my master, Abraham, if thou hast prospered my way, wherein I now walk,
-Genesis Ge 1 24 43 Behold, I stand by the well of water, and the virgin, that shall come out to draw water, who shall hear me say: Give me a little water to drink of thy pitcher:
-Genesis Ge 1 24 44 And shall say to me: Both drink thou, and I will also draw for thy camels: let the same be the woman, whom the Lord hath prepared for my master’s son.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 45 And whilst I pondered these things secretly with myself, Rebecca appeared, coming with a pitcher, which she carried on her shoulder: and she went down to the well and drew water. And I said to her: Give me a little to drink.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 46 And she speedily let down the pitcher from her shoulder, and said to me: Both drink thou, and to thy camels I will give drink. I drank, and she watered the camels.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 47 And I asked her, and said: Whose daughter art thou? And she answered: I am the daughter of Bathuel, the son of Nachor, whom Melcha bore to him. So I put earrings on her to adorn her face, and I put bracelets on her hands.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 48 And falling down, I adored the Lord, blessing the Lord God of my master, Abraham, who hath brought me the straight way to take the daughter of my master’s brother for his son.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 49 Wherefore, if you do according to mercy and truth with my master, tell me: but if it please you otherwise, tell me that also, that I may go to the right hand, or to the left.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 50 And Laban and Bathuel answered: The word hath proceeded from the Lord: we cannot speak any other thing to thee but his pleasure.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 51 Behold, Rebecca is before thee, take her and go thy way, and let her be the wife of thy master’s son, as the Lord hath spoken.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 52 Which when Abraham’s servant heard, falling down to the ground, he adored the Lord.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 53 And bringing forth vessels of silver and gold, and garments, he gave them to Rebecca, for a present. He offered gifts also to her brothers, and to her mother.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 54 And a banquet was made, and they ate and drank together, and lodged there. And in the morning, the servant arose, and said: Let me depart, that I may go to my master.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 55 And her brother and mother answered: Let the maid stay, at least, ten days with us, and afterwards she shall depart.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 56 Stay me not, said he, because the Lord hath prospered my way: send me away, that I may go to my master.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 57 And they said: Let us call the maid, and ask her will.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 58 And they called her, and when she was come, they asked: Wilt thou go with this man? She said: I will go.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 59 So they sent her away, and her nurse, and Abraham’s servant, and his company.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 60 Wishing prosperity to their sister, and saying: Thou art our sister, mayst thou increase to thousands of thousands; and may thy seed possess the gates of their enemies.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 61 So Rebecca and her maids, being set upon camels, followed the man: who with speed returned to his master.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 62 At the same time, Isaac was walking along the way to the well which is called Of the living and the seeing: for he dwelt in the south country:
-Genesis Ge 1 24 63 And he was gone forth to meditate in the field, the day being now well spent: and when he had lifted up his eyes, he saw camels coming afar off.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 64 Rebecca also, when she saw Isaac, lighted off the camel,
-Genesis Ge 1 24 65 And said to the servant: Who is that man who cometh towards us along the field? And he said to her: That man is my master. But she quickly took her cloak, and covered herself.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 66 And the servant told Isaac all that he had done.
-Genesis Ge 1 24 67 Who brought her into the tent of Sara his mother, and took her to wife: and he loved her so much, that it moderated the sorrow which was occasioned by his mother’s death.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 1 And Abraham married another wife named Cetura:
-Genesis Ge 1 25 2 Who bore him Zamram, and Jecsan, and Madan, and Madian, and Jesboc, and Sue.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 3 Jecsan also begot Saba, and Dadan. The children of Dadan were Assurim, and Latusim, and Loomim.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 4 But of Madian was born Epha, and Opher, and Henoch, and Abida, and Eldaa: all these were the children of Cetura.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 5 And Abraham gave all his possessions to Isaac:
-Genesis Ge 1 25 6 And to the children of the concubines he gave gifts, and separated them from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, to the east country.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 7 And the days of Abraham’s life were a hundred and seventy-five years.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 8 And decaying he died in a good old age, and having lived a long time, and being full of days: and was gathered to his people.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 9 And Isaac and Ismael his sons buried him in the double cave, which was situated in the field of Ephron the son of Seor the Hethite, over against Mambre,
-Genesis Ge 1 25 10 Which he had bought of the children of Heth: there was he buried, and Sara his wife.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 11 And after his death, God blessed Isaac his son, who dwelt by the well named Of the living and seeing.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 12 These are the generations of Ismael the son of Abraham, whom Agar the Egyptian, Sara’s servant, bore unto him:
-Genesis Ge 1 25 13 And these are the names of his children according to their calling and generations. The firstborn of Ismael was Nabajoth, then Cedar, and Adbeel, and Mabsam,
-Genesis Ge 1 25 14 And Masma, and Duma, and Massa,
-Genesis Ge 1 25 15 Hadar, and Thema, and Jethur, and Naphis, and Cedma.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 16 These are the sons of Ismael: and these are their names by their castles and towns, twelve princes of their tribes.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 17 And the years of Ismael’s life were a hundred and thirty-seven, and decaying he died, and was gathered unto his people.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 18 And he dwelt from Hevila as far as Sur, which looketh towards Egypt, to them that go towards the Assyrians. He died in the presence of all his brethren.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 19 These also are the generations of Isaac the son of Abraham: Abraham begot Isaac:
-Genesis Ge 1 25 20 Who when he was forty years old, took to wife Rebecca the daughter of Bathuel the Syrian of Mesopotamia, sister to Laban.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 21 And Isaac besought the Lord for his wife, because she was barren: and he heard him, and made Rebecca to conceive.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 22 But the children struggled in her womb, and she said: If it were to be so with me, what need was there to conceive? And she went to consult the Lord.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 23 And he answering, said: Two nations are in thy womb, and two peoples shall be divided out of thy womb, and one people shall overcome the other, and the elder shall serve the younger.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 24 And when her time was come to be delivered, behold twins were found in her womb.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 25 He that came forth first was red, and hairy like a skin: and his name was called Esau. Immediately the other coming forth, held his brother’s foot in his hand: and therefore he was called Jacob.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 26 Isaac was threescore years old when the children were born unto him.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 27 And when they were grown up, Esau became a skilful hunter, and a husbandman: but Jacob, a plain man, dwelt in tents.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 28 Isaac loved Esau, because he ate of his hunting: and Rebecca loved Jacob.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 29 And Jacob boiled pottage: to whom Esau, coming faint out of the field,
-Genesis Ge 1 25 30 Said: Give me of this red pottage, for I am exceeding faint. For which reason his name was called Edom.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 31 And Jacob said to him: Sell me thy first birthright.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 32 He answered: Lo I die, what will the first birthright avail me?
-Genesis Ge 1 25 33 Jacob said: Swear therefore to me. Esau swore to him, and sold his first birthright.
-Genesis Ge 1 25 34 And so taking bread and the pottage of lentils, he ate, and drank, and went on his way; making little account of having sold his first birthright.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 1 And when a famine came in the land, after that barrenness which had happened in the days of Abraham, Isaac went to Abimelech, king of the Palestines, to Gerara.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 2 And the Lord appeared to him, and said: Go not down into Egypt, but stay in the land that I shall tell thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 3 And sojourn in it, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee: for to thee and to thy seed I will give all these countries, to fulfil the oath which I swore to Abraham thy father.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 4 And I will multiply thy seed like the stars of heaven: and I will give to thy posterity all these countries: and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 5 Because Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my precepts and commandments, and observed my ceremonies and laws.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 6 So Isaac abode in Gerara.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 7 And when he was asked by the men of that place, concerning his wife, he answered: She is my sister: for he was afraid to confess that she was his wife, thinking lest perhaps they would kill him because of her beauty.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 8 And when very many days were passed, and he abode there, Abimelech, king of the Palestines, looking out through a window, saw him playing with Rebecca, his wife.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 9 And calling for him, he said: It is evident she is thy wife: why didst thou feign her to be thy sister? He answered: I feared lest I should die for her sake.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 10 And Abimelech said: Why hast thou deceived us? Some man of the people might have lain with thy wife, and thou hadst brought upon us a great sin. And he commanded all the people, saying:
-Genesis Ge 1 26 11 He that shall touch this man’s wife, shall surely be put to death.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 12 And Isaac sowed in that land, and he found that same year a hundredfold: and the Lord blessed him.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 13 And the man was enriched, and he went on prospering and increasing, till he became exceeding great.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 14 And he had possessions of sheep and of herds, and a very great family. Wherefore the Palestines envying him,
-Genesis Ge 1 26 15 Stopped up at that time all the wells, that the servants of his father, Abraham, had digged, filling them up with earth:
-Genesis Ge 1 26 16 Insomuch that Abimelech himself said to Isaac: Depart from us, for thou art become much mightier than we.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 17 So he departed, and came to the torrent of Gerara, to dwell there:
-Genesis Ge 1 26 18 And he digged again other wells, which the servants of his father, Abraham, had digged, and which, after his death, the Philistines had of old stopped up: and he called them by the same names, by which his father before had called them.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 19 And they digged in the torrent, and found living water:
-Genesis Ge 1 26 20 But there also the herdsmen of Gerara strove against the herdsmen of Isaac, saying: It is our water. Wherefore he called the name of the well, on occasion of that which had happened, Calumny.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 21 And they digged also another; and for that they quarrelled likewise, and he called the name of it, Enmity.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 22 Going forward from thence, he digged another well, for which they contended not; therefore he called the name thereof, Latitude, saying: Now hath the Lord given us room, and made us to increase upon the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 23 And he went up from that place to Bersabee,
-Genesis Ge 1 26 24 Where the Lord appeared to him that same night, saying: I am the God of Abraham thy father, do not fear, for I am with thee: I will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham’s sake.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 25 And he built there an altar: and called upon the name of the Lord, and pitched his tent; and commanded his servants to dig a well.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 26 To which place when Abimelech, and Ochozath his friend, and Phicol chief captain of his soldiers, came from Gerara,
-Genesis Ge 1 26 27 Isaac said to them: Why are ye come to me, a man whom you hate, and have thrust out from you?
-Genesis Ge 1 26 28 And they answered: We saw that the Lord is with thee, and therefore we said: Let there be an oath between us, and let us make a covenant,
-Genesis Ge 1 26 29 That thou do us no harm, as we on our part have touched nothing of thine, nor have done any thing to hurt thee; but with peace have sent thee away, increased with the blessing of the Lord.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 30 And he made them a feast, and after they had eaten and drunk:
-Genesis Ge 1 26 31 Arising in the morning, they swore one to another: and Isaac sent them away peaceably to their own home.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 32 And behold, the same day the servants of Isaac came, telling him of a well which they had digged, and saying: We have found water.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 33 Whereupon he called it Abundance: and the name of the city was called Bersabee, even to this day.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 34 And Esau being forty years old, married wives, Judith, the daughter of Beeri, the Hethite, and Basemath, the daughter of Elon, of the same place.
-Genesis Ge 1 26 35 And they both offended the mind of Isaac and Rebecca.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 1 Now Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, and he could not see: and he called Esau, his elder son, and said to him: My son? And he answered: Here I am.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 2 And his father said to him, Thou seest that I am old, and know not the day of my death.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 3 Take thy arms, thy quiver, and bow, and go abroad; and when thou hast taken something by hunting,
-Genesis Ge 1 27 4 Make me a savoury meat thereof, as thou knowest I like, and bring it that I may eat: and my soul may bless thee, before I die.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 5 And when Rebecca had heard this, and he was gone into the field to fulfil his father’s commandment,
-Genesis Ge 1 27 6 She said to her son Jacob: I heard thy father talking with Esau, thy brother, and saying to him:
-Genesis Ge 1 27 7 Bring me of thy hunting, and make me meats that I may eat, and bless thee in the sight of the Lord, before I die.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 8 Now therefore, my son, follow my counsel:
-Genesis Ge 1 27 9 And go thy way to the flock, bring me two kids of the best, that I may make of them meat for thy father, such as he gladly eateth.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 10 Which when thou hast brought in, and he hath eaten, he may bless thee before he die.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 11 And he answered her: Thou knowest that Esau, my brother, is a hairy man, and I am smooth:
-Genesis Ge 1 27 12 If my father should feel me, and perceive it, I fear lest he will think I would have mocked him, and I shall bring upon me a curse instead of a blessing.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 13 And his mother said to him: Upon me be this curse, my son: only hear thou my voice, and go, fetch me the things which I have said.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 14 He went, and brought, and gave them to his mother. She dressed meats, such as she knew his father liked.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 15 And she put on him very good garments of Esau, which she had at home with her:
-Genesis Ge 1 27 16 And the little skins of the kids she put about his hands, and covered the bare of his neck.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 17 And she gave him the savoury meat, and delivered him bread that she had baked.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 18 Which when he had carried in, he said: My father? But he answered: I hear. Who art thou, my son?
-Genesis Ge 1 27 19 And Jacob said: I am Esau, thy firstborn: I have done as thou didst command me: arise, sit and eat of my venison, that thy soul may bless me.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 20 And Isaac said to his son: How couldst thou find it so quickly, my son? He answered: It was the will of God, that what I sought came quickly in my way:
-Genesis Ge 1 27 21 And Isaac said: Come hither, that I may feel thee, my son, and may prove whether thou be my son Esau, or no.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 22 He came near to his father, and when he had felt him, Isaac said: The voice indeed is the voice of Jacob; but the hands, are the hands of Esau.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 23 And he knew him not, because his hairy hands made him like to the elder. Then blessing him,
-Genesis Ge 1 27 24 He said: Art thou my son Esau? He answered: I am.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 25 Then he said: Bring me the meats of thy hunting, my son, that my soul may bless thee. And when they were brought, and he had eaten, he offered him wine also, which after he had drunk,
-Genesis Ge 1 27 26 He said to him: Come near me, and give me a kiss, my son.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 27 He came near, and kissed him. And immediately as he smelled the fragrant smell of his garments, blessing him, he said: Behold, the smell of my son is as the smell of a plentiful field, which the Lord hath blessed.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 28 God give thee of the dew of heaven, and of the fatness of the earth, abundance of corn and wine.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 29 And let peoples serve thee, and tribes worship thee: be thou lord of thy brethren, and let thy mother’s children bow down before thee. Cursed be he that curseth thee: and let him that blesseth thee be filled with blessings.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 30 Isaac had scarce ended his words, when, Jacob being now gone out abroad, Esau came,
-Genesis Ge 1 27 31 And brought in to his father meats, made of what he had taken in hunting, saying: Arise, my father, and eat of thy son’s venison; that thy soul may bless me.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 32 And Isaac said to him: Why! who art thou? He answered: I am thy firstborn son, Esau.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 33 Isaac was struck with fear, and astonished exceedingly; and wondering beyond what can be believed, said: Who is he then that even now brought me venison that he had taken, and I ate of all before thou camest? and I have blessed him, and he shall be blessed.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 34 Esau having heard his father’s words, roared out with a great cry; and, being in a consternation, said: Bless me also, my father.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 35 And he said: Thy brother came deceitfully and got thy blessing.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 36 But he said again: Rightly is his name called Jacob; for he hath supplanted me lo this second time: My birthright he took away before, and now this second time he hath stolen away my blessing. And again he said to his father: Hast thou not reserved me also a blessing?
-Genesis Ge 1 27 37 Isaac answered: I have appointed him thy lord, and have made all his brethren his servants: I have established him with corn and wine, and after this, what shall I do more for thee, my son?
-Genesis Ge 1 27 38 And Esau said to him: Hast thou only one blessing, father? I beseech thee bless me also. And when he wept with a loud cry,
-Genesis Ge 1 27 39 Isaac being moved, said to him: In the fat of the earth, and in the dew of heaven from above,
-Genesis Ge 1 27 40 Shall thy blessing be. Thou shalt live by the sword, and shalt serve thy brother: and the time shall come, when thou shalt shake off and loose his yoke from thy neck.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 41 Esau therefore always hated Jacob, for the blessing wherewith his father had blessed him; and he said in his heart: The days will come of the mourning for my father, and I will kill my brother Jacob.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 42 These things were told to Rebecca: and she sent and called Jacob, her son, and said to him: Behold Esau, thy brother, threateneth to kill thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 27 43 Now therefore, my son, hear my voice, arise and flee to Laban, my brother, to Haran:
-Genesis Ge 1 27 44 And thou shalt dwell with him a few days, till the wrath of thy brother be assuaged,
-Genesis Ge 1 27 45 And his indignation cease, and he forget the things thou hast done to him: afterwards I will send, and bring thee from thence hither. Why shall I be deprived of both my sons in one day?
-Genesis Ge 1 27 46 And Rebecca said to Isaac: I am weary of my life, because of the daughters of Heth: if Jacob take a wife of the stock of this land, I choose not to live.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 1 And Isaac called Jacob, and blessed him, and charged him, saying: Take not a wife of the stock of Chanaan:
-Genesis Ge 1 28 2 But go, and take a journey to Mesopotamia of Syria, to the house of Bathuel, thy mother’s father, and take thee a wife thence of the daughters of Laban, thy uncle.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 3 And God almighty bless thee, and make thee to increase and multiply thee: that thou mayst be a multitude of people.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 4 And give the blessings of Araham to thee, and to thy seed after thee: that thou mayst possess the land of thy sojournment, which he promised to thy grandfather.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 5 And when Isaac had sent him away, he took his journey and went to Mesopotamia of Syria, to Laban, the son of Bathuel, the Syrian, brother to Rebecca, his mother.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 6 And Esau seeing that his father had blessed Jacob, and had sent him into Mesopotamia of Syria, to marry a wife thence; and that after the blessing he had charged him, saying: Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Chanaan:
-Genesis Ge 1 28 7 And that Jacob obeying his parents, was gone into Syria:
-Genesis Ge 1 28 8 Experiencing also, that his father was not well pleased with the daughters of Chanaan:
-Genesis Ge 1 28 9 He went to Ismael, and took to wife, besides them he had before, Maheleth, the daughter of Ismael, Abraham’s son, the sister of Nabajoth.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 10 But Jacob being departed from Bersabee, went on to Haran.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 11 And when he was come to a certain place, and would rest in it after sunset, he took of the stones that lay there, and putting under his head, slept in the same place.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 12 And he saw in his sleep a ladder standing upon the earth, and the top thereof touching heaven: the angels also of God ascending and descending by it.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 13 And the Lord leaning upon the ladder saying to him: I am the Lord God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: The land, wherein thou sleepest, I will give to thee and to thy seed.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 14 And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth: thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and IN THEE and thy seed, all the tribes of the earth SHALL BE BLESSED.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 15 And I will be thy keeper whithersoever thou goest, and will bring thee back into this land: neither will I leave thee, till I shall have accomplished all that I have said.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 16 And when Jacob awaked out of sleep, he said: Indeed the Lord is in this place, and I knew it not.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 17 And trembling, he said: How terrible is this place? this is no other but the house of God, and the gate of heaven.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 18 And Jacob arising in the morning, took the stone which he had laid under his head, and set it up for a title, pouring oil upon the top of it.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 19 And he called the name of the city Bethel, which before was called Luza.
-Genesis Ge 1 28 20 And he made a vow, saying: If God shall be with me, and shall keep me in the way, by which I walk, and shall give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on,
-Genesis Ge 1 28 21 And I shall return prosperously to my father’s house: the Lord shall be my God:
-Genesis Ge 1 28 22 And this stone, which I have set up for a title, shall be called the house of God: and of all things that thou shalt give to me, I will offer tithes to thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 1 Then Jacob went on in his journey, and came into the east country.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 2 And he saw a well in the field, and three flocks of sheep lying by it: for the beasts were watered out of it, and the mouth thereof was closed with a great stone.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 3 And the custom was, when all the sheep were gathered together, to roll away the stone, and after the sheep were watered, to put it on the mouth of the well again.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 4 And he said to the shepherds: Brethren, whence are you? They answered: Of Haran.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 5 And he asked them, saying: Know you Laban, the son of Nachor? They said: We know him.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 6 He said: Is he in health? He is in health, say they: and behold, Rachel, his daughter, cometh with his flock.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 7 And Jacob said: There is yet much day remaining, neither is it time to bring the flocks into the folds again: first give the sheep drink, and so lead them back to feed.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 8 They answered: We cannot, till all the cattle be gathered together, and we remove the stone from the well’s mouth, that we may water the flocks.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 9 They were yet speaking, and behold Rachel came with her father’s sheep; for she fed the flock.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 10 And when Jacob saw her, and knew her to be his cousin german, and that they were the sheep of Laban, his uncle: he removed the stone wherewith the well was closed.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 11 And having watered the flock, he kissed her: and lifting up his voice wept.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 12 And he told her that he was her father’s brother, and the son of Rebecca: but she went in haste and told her father.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 13 Who, when he heard that Jacob his sister’s son was come, ran forth to meet him: and embracing him, and heartily kissing him, brought him into his house. And when he had heard the causes of his journey,
-Genesis Ge 1 29 14 He answered: Thou art my bone and my flesh. And after the days of one month were expired,
-Genesis Ge 1 29 15 He said to him: Because thou art my brother, shalt thou serve me without wages? Tell me what wages thou wilt have.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 16 Now he had two daughters, the name of the elder was Lia; and the younger was called Rachel.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 17 But Lia was blear-eyed: Rachel was well favoured, and of a beautiful countenance.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 18 And Jacob being in love with her, said: I will serve thee seven years for Rachel, thy younger daughter.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 19 Laban answered: It is better that I give her to thee than to another man; stay with me.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 20 So Jacob served seven years for Rachel: and they seemed but a few days, because of the greatness of his love.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 21 And he said to Laban: Give me my wife; for now the time is fulfilled, that I may go in unto her.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 22 And he, having invited a great number of his friends to the feast, made the marriage.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 23 And at night he brought in Lia, his daughter, to him,
-Genesis Ge 1 29 24 Giving his daughter a handmaid, named Zelpha. Now when Jacob had gone in to her according to custom, when morning was come he saw it was Lia.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 25 And he said to his father-in-law: What is it that thou didst mean to do? did not I serve thee for Rachel? why hast thou deceived me?
-Genesis Ge 1 29 26 Laban answered: It is not the custom in this place, to give the younger in marriage first.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 27 Make up the week of days of this match: and I will give thee her also, for the service that thou shalt render me other seven years.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 28 He yielded to his pleasure: and after the week was past, he married Rachel:
-Genesis Ge 1 29 29 To whom her father gave Bala, for her servant.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 30 And having at length obtained the marriage he wished for, he preferred the love of the latter before the former, and served with him other seven years.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 31 And the Lord seeing that he despised Lia, opened her womb, but her sister remained barren.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 32 And she conceived and bore a son, and called his name Ruben, saying: The Lord saw my affliction: now my husband will love me.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 33 And again she conceived and bore a son, and said: Because the Lord heard that I was despised, he hath given this also to me: and she called his name Simeon.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 34 And she conceived the third time, and bore another son, and said: Now also my husband will be joined to me, because I have borne him three sons: and therefore she called his name Levi.
-Genesis Ge 1 29 35 The fourth time she conceived and bore a son, and said: Now will I praise the Lord: and for this she called him Juda. And she left bearing.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 1 And Rachel seeing herself without children, envied her sister, and said to her husband: Give me children, otherwise I shall die.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 2 And Jacob being angry with her, answered: Am I as God, who hath deprived thee of the fruit of thy womb?
-Genesis Ge 1 30 3 But she said: I have here my servant Bala: go in unto her, that she may bear upon my knees, and I may have children by her.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 4 And she gave him Bala in marriage: who,
-Genesis Ge 1 30 5 When her husband had gone in unto her, conceived and bore a son.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 6 And Rachel said: The Lord hath judged for me, and hath heard my voice, giving me a son; and therefore she called his name Dan.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 7 And again Bala conceived, and bore another,
-Genesis Ge 1 30 8 For whom Rachel said: God hath compared me with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called him Nephthali.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 9 Lia perceiving that she had left of bearing, gave Zelpha, her handmaid, to her husband.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 10 And when she had conceived, and brought forth a son,
-Genesis Ge 1 30 11 She said: Happily. And therefore called his name Gad.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 12 Zelpha also bore another.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 13 And Lia said: This is for my happiness: for women will call me blessed. Therefore she called him Aser.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 14 And Ruben going out in the time of the wheat harvest into the field, found mandrakes: which he brought to his mother Lia. And Rachel said: Give me part of thy son’s mandrakes.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 15 She answered: Dost thou think it a small matter, that thou hast taken my husband from me, unless thou take also my son’s mandrakes? Rachel said: He shall sleep with thee this night, for thy son’s mandrakes.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 16 And when Jacob returned at even from the field, Lia went out to meet him, and said: Thou shalt come in unto me, because I have hired thee for my son’s mandrakes. And he slept with her that night.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 17 And God heard her prayers; and she conceived: and bore a fifth son:
-Genesis Ge 1 30 18 And said: God hath given me a reward, because I gave my handmaid to my husband. And she called his name Issachar.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 19 And Lia conceived again, and bore the sixth son,
-Genesis Ge 1 30 20 And said: God hath endowed me with a good dowry; this turn also my husband will be with me, because I have borne him six sons: and therefore she called his name Zabulon.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 21 After whom she bore a daughter, named Dina.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 22 The Lord also remembering Rachel, heard her, and opened her womb.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 23 And she conceived, and bore a son, saying: God hath taken away my reproach.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 24 And she called his name Joseph: saying: The Lord give me also another son.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 25 And when Joseph was born, Jacob said to his father-in-law: Send me away, that I may return into my country, and to my land.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 26 Give me my wives, and my children, for whom I have served thee, that I may depart: thou knowest the service that I have rendered thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 27 Laban said to him: Let me find favour in thy sight: I have learned, by experience, that God hath blessed me for thy sake.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 28 Appoint thy wages which I shall give thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 29 But he answered: Thou knowest how I have served thee, and how great thy possession hath been in my hands.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 30 Thou hadst but little before I came to thee, and now thou art become rich: and the Lord hath blessed thee at my coming. It is reasonable, therefore, that I should now provide also for my own house.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 31 And Laban said: What shall I give thee? But he said: I require nothing; but if thou wilt do what I demand, I will feed and keep thy sheep again.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 32 Go round through all thy flocks, and separate all the sheep of divers colours, and speckled; and all that is brown and spotted, and of divers colours, as well among the sheep as among the goats, shall be my wages.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 33 And my justice shall answer for me tomorrow before thee, when the time of the bargain shall come; and all that is not of divers colours, and spotted, and brown, as well among the sheep as among the goats, shall accuse me of theft.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 34 And Laban said: I like well what thou demandest.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 35 And he separated the same day the she-goats, and the sheep, and the he-goats, and the rams of divers colours, and spotted; and all the flock of one colour, that is, of white and black fleece, he delivered into the hands of his sons.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 36 And he set the space of three days journey betwixt himself and his son-in-law, who fed the rest of his flock.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 37 And Jacob took green rods of poplar, and of almond, and of plane-trees, and pilled them in part: so when the bark was taken off, in the parts that were pilled, there appeared whiteness: but the parts that were whole, remained green: and by this means the colour was divers.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 38 And he put them in the troughs, where the water was poured out; that when the flocks should come to drink, they might have the rods before their eyes, and in the sight of them might conceive.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 39 And it came to pass, that in the very heat of coition, the sheep beheld the rods, and brought forth spotted, and of divers colours, and speckled.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 40 And Jacob separated the flock, and put the rods in the troughs before the eyes of the rams; and all the white and the black were Laban’s, and the rest were Jacob’s, when the flocks were separated one from the other.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 41 So when the ewes went first to ram, Jacob put the rods in the troughs of water before the eyes of the rams, and of the ewes, that they might conceive while they were looking upon them.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 42 But when the later coming was, and the last conceiving, he did not put them. And those that were lateward, became Laban’s; and they of the first time, Jacob’s.
-Genesis Ge 1 30 43 And the man was enriched exceedingly, and he had many flocks, maid-servants and men-servants, camels and asses.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 1 But after that he had heard the words of the sons of Laban, saying: Jacob hath taken away all that was our father’s, and being enriched by his substance is become great.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 2 And perceiving also, that Laban’s countenance was not towards him as yesterday and the other day.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 3 Especially the Lord saying to him: Return into the land of thy fathers and to thy kindred, and I will be with thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 4 He sent, and called Rachel and Lia into the field, where he fed the flocks,
-Genesis Ge 1 31 5 And said to them: I see your father’s countenance is not towards me as yesterday and the other day: but the God of my father hath been with me.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 6 And you know that I have served your father to the uttermost of my power.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 7 Yea your father hath also overreached me, and hath changed my wages ten times: and yet God hath not suffered him to hurt me.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 8 If at any time, he said: The speckled shall be thy wages: all the sheep brought forth speckled: but when he said on the contrary: Thou shalt take all the white one for thy wages: all the flocks brought forth white ones.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 9 And God hath taken your father’s substance, and given it to me.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 10 For after the time came of the ewes conceiving, I lifted up my eyes, and saw in my sleep, that the males which leaped upon the females were of divers colours, and spotted, and speckled.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 11 And the angel of God said to me in my sleep: Jacob. And I answered: Here I am.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 12 And he said: Lift up thy eyes, and see that all the males leaping upon the females, are of divers colours, spotted and speckled. For I have seen all that Laban hath done to thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 13 I am the God of Bethel, where thou didst anoint the stone, and make a vow to me. Now therefore arise, and go out of this land, and return into thy native country.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 14 And Rachel and Lia answered: Have we any thing left among the goods and inheritance of our father’s house?
-Genesis Ge 1 31 15 Hath he not counted us as strangers, and sold us, and eaten up the price of us?
-Genesis Ge 1 31 16 But God hath taken our father’s riches, and delivered them to us, and to our children: wherefore, do all that God hath commanded thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 17 Then Jacob rose up, and having set his children and wives upon camels, went his way.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 18 And he took all his substance, and flocks, and whatsoever he had gotten in Mesopotamia, and went forward to Isaac, his father, to the land of Chanaan.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 19 At that time Laban was gone to shear his sheep, and Rachel stole away her father’s idols.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 20 And Jacob would not confess to his father-in-law that he was flying away.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 21 And when he was gone, together with all that belonged to him, and having passed the river, was going on towards mount Galaad,
-Genesis Ge 1 31 22 It was told Laban on the third day, that Jacob fled.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 23 And he took his brethren with him, and pursued after him seven days; and overtook him in the mount of Galaad.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 24 And he saw in a dream God, saying to him: Take heed thou speak not any thing harshly against Jacob.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 25 Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mountain: and when he, with his brethren, had overtaken him, he pitched his tent in the same mount of Galaad.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 26 And he said to Jacob: Why hast thou done thus, to carry away, without my knowledge, my daughters as captives taken with the sword?
-Genesis Ge 1 31 27 Why wouldst thou run away privately, and not acquaint me, that I might have brought thee on the way with joy, and with songs, and with timbrels, and with harps?
-Genesis Ge 1 31 28 Thou hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and daughters; thou hast done foolishly; and now indeed,
-Genesis Ge 1 31 29 It is in my power to return thee evil; but the God of your father said to me yesterday: Take heed thou speak not any thing harshly against Jacob.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 30 Suppose thou didst desire to go to thy friends, and hadst a longing after thy father’s house: why hast thou stolen away my gods?
-Genesis Ge 1 31 31 Jacob answered: That I departed unknown to thee, it was for fear lest thou wouldst take away thy daughters by force.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 32 But, whereas, thou chargest me with theft: with whomsoever thou shalt find thy gods, let him be slain before our brethren. Search, and if thou find any of thy things with me, take them away. Now when he said this, he knew not that Rachel had stolen the idols.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 33 So Laban went into the tent of Jacob, and of Lia, and of both the handmaids, and found them not. And when he was entered into Rachel’s tent,
-Genesis Ge 1 31 34 She, in haste, hid the idols under the camel’s furniture, and sat upon them: and when he had searched all the tent, and found nothing,
-Genesis Ge 1 31 35 She said: Let not my lord be angry that I cannot rise up before thee, because it has now happened to me according to the custom of women. So his careful search was in vain.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 36 And Jacob being angry, said in a chiding manner: For what fault of mine, and for what offence on my part hast thou so hotly pursued me,
-Genesis Ge 1 31 37 And searched all my household stuff? What hast thou found of all the substance of thy house? lay it here before my brethren, and thy brethren, and let them judge between me and thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 38 Have I, therefore, been with thee twenty years? thy ewes and goats were not barren, the rams of thy flocks I did not eat:
-Genesis Ge 1 31 39 Neither did I shew thee that which the beast had torn; I made good all the damage: whatsoever was lost by theft, thou didst exact it of me:
-Genesis Ge 1 31 40 Day and night was I parched with heat, and with frost, and sleep departed from my eyes.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 41 And in this manner have I served thee in thy house twenty years, fourteen for thy daughters, and six for thy flocks: thou hast changed also my wages ten times.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 42 Unless the God of my father, Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had stood by me, peradventure now thou hadst sent me away naked: God beheld my affliction and the labour of my hands, and rebuked thee yesterday.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 43 Laban answered him: The daughters are mine, and the children, and thy flocks, and all things that thou seest are mine: what can I do to my children, and grandchildren?
-Genesis Ge 1 31 44 Come, therefore, let us enter into a league; that it may be for a testimony between me and thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 45 And Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a title.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 46 And he said to his brethren: Bring hither stones. And they, gathering stones together, made a heap, and they ate upon it.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 47 And Laban called it, The witness heap; and Jacob, The hillock of testimony: each of them according to the propriety of his language.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 48 And Laban said: This heap shall be a witness between me and thee this day, and therefore the name thereof was called Galaad, that is, The witness heap.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 49 The Lord behold and judge between us, when we shall be gone one from the other.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 50 If thou afflict my daughters, and if thou bring in other wives over them: none is witness of our speech but God, who is present and beholdeth.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 51 And he said again to Jacob: Behold this heap, and the stone which I have set up between me and thee,
-Genesis Ge 1 31 52 Shall be a witness: this heap, I say, and the stone, be they for a testimony, if either I shall pass beyond it going towards thee, or thou shalt pass beyond it thinking harm to me.
-Genesis Ge 1 31 53 The God of Abraham, and the God of Nachor, the God of their father, judge between us. And Jacob swore by the fear of his father Isaac:
-Genesis Ge 1 31 54 And after he had offered sacrifices in the mountain, he called his brethren to eat bread. And when they had eaten, they lodged there:
-Genesis Ge 1 31 55 But Laban arose in the night, and kissed his sons and daughters, and blessed them: and returned to his place.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 1 Jacob also went on the journey he had begun: and the angels of God met him.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 2 And when he saw them, he said: These are the camps of God, and he called the name of that place Mahanaim, that is, Camps.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 3 And he sent messengers before him to Esau, his brother, to the land of Seir, to the country of Edom:
-Genesis Ge 1 32 4 And he commanded them, saying: Thus shall ye speak to my lord Esau: Thus saith thy brother Jacob: I have sojourned with Laban, and have been with him until this day:
-Genesis Ge 1 32 5 I have oxen, and asses, and sheep, and menservants, and womenservants: and now I send a message to my lord, that I may find favour in thy sight.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 6 And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying: We came to Esau, thy brother, and behold he cometh with speed to meet thee with four hundred men.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 7 Then Jacob was greatly afraid; and in his fear divided the people that was with him, and the flocks, and the sheep, and the oxen, and the camels, into two companies,
-Genesis Ge 1 32 8 Saying: If Esau come to one company, and destroy it, the other company that is left, shall escape.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 9 And Jacob said: O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac: O Lord who saidst to me, Return to thy land, and to the place of thy birth, and I will do well for thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 10 I am not worthy of the least of all thy mercies, and of thy truth which thou hast fulfilled to thy servant. With my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I return with two companies.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 11 Deliver me from the hand of my brother Esau, for I am greatly afraid of him; lest perhaps he come, and kill the mother with the children.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 12 Thou didst say, that thou wouldst do well by me, and multiply my seed like the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 13 And when he had slept there that night, he set apart, of the things which he had, presents for his brother Esau,
-Genesis Ge 1 32 14 Two hundred she-goats, twenty he-goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams,
-Genesis Ge 1 32 15 Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty kine, and twenty bulls, twenty she-asses, and ten of their foals.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 16 And he sent them by the hands of his servants, every drove by itself, and he said to his servants: Go before me, and let there be a space between drove and drove.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 17 And he commanded the first, saying: If thou meet my brother Esau, and he ask thee: Whose art thou? or whither goest thou? or whose are these before thee?
-Genesis Ge 1 32 18 Thou shalt answer: Thy servant Jacob’s: he hath sent them as a present to my lord Esau; and he cometh after us.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 19 In like manner he commanded the second, and the third, and all that followed the droves, saying: Speak ye the same words to Esau, when ye find him.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 20 And ye shall add: Thy servant Jacob himself also followeth after us; for he said: I will appease him with the presents that go before, and afterwards I will see him, perhaps he will be gracious to me.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 21 So the presents went before him, but himself lodged that night in the camp.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 22 And rising early, he took his two wives and his two handmaids, with his eleven sons, and passed over the ford of Jaboc.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 23 And when all things were brought over that belonged to him,
-Genesis Ge 1 32 24 He remained alone; and behold, a man wrestled with him till morning.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 25 And when he saw that he could not overcome him, he touched the sinew of his thigh, and forthwith it shrank.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 26 And he said to him: Let me go, for it is break of day. He answered: I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 27 And he said: What is thy name? He answered: Jacob.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 28 But he said: Thy name shall not be called Jacob, but Israel; for if thou hast been strong against God, how much more shalt thou prevail against men?
-Genesis Ge 1 32 29 Jacob asked him: Tell me by what name art thou called? He answered: Why dost thou ask my name? And he blessed him in the same place.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 30 And Jacob called the name of the place Phanuel, saying: I have seen God face to face, and my soul has been saved.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 31 And immediately the sun rose upon him, after he was past Phanuel; but he halted on his foot.
-Genesis Ge 1 32 32 Therefore the children of Israel, unto this day, eat not the sinew, that shrank in Jacob’s thigh: because he touched the sinew of his thigh and it shrank.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 1 And Jacob lifting up his eyes, saw Esau coming, and with him four hundred men: and he divided the children of Lia and of Rachel, and of the two handmaids.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 2 And he put both the handmaids and their children foremost: and Lia and her children in the second place: and Rachel and Joseph last.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 3 And he went forward and bowed down with his face to the ground seven times, until his brother came near.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 4 Then Esau ran to meet his brother, and embraced him: and clasping him fast about the neck, and kissing him, wept.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 5 And lifting up his eyes, he saw the women and their children, and said: What mean these? And do they belong to thee? He answered: They are the children which God hath given to me, thy servant.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 6 Then the handmaids and their children came near and bowed themselves.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 7 Lia also, with her children, came near and bowed down in like manner; and last of all, Joseph and Rachel bowed down.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 8 And Esau said: What are the droves that I met? He answered: That I might find favour before my lord.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 9 But he said: I have plenty, my brother, keep what is thine for thyself.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 10 And Jacob said: Do not so I beseech thee, but if I have found favour in thy eyes, receive a little present at my hands: for I have seen thy face, as if I should have seen the countenance of God: be gracious to me,
-Genesis Ge 1 33 11 And take the blessing which I have brought thee, and which God hath given me, who giveth all things. He took it with much ado at his brother’s earnest pressing him,
-Genesis Ge 1 33 12 And said: Let us go on together, and I will accompany thee in thy journey.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 13 And Jacob said: My lord, thou knowest that I have with me tender children, and sheep, and kine with young: which if I should cause to be overdriven, in one day all the flocks will die.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 14 May it please my lord to go before his servant: and I will follow softly after him, as I shall see my children to be able, until I come to my lord in Seir.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 15 Esau answered: I beseech thee, that some of the people, at least, who are with me, may stay to accompany thee in the way. And he said: There is no necessity: I want nothing else but only to find favour, my lord, in thy sight.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 16 So Esau returned that day, the way that he came, to Seir.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 17 And Jacob came to Socoth: where having built a house, and pitched tents, he called the name of the place Socoth, that is, Tents.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 18 And he passed over to Salem, a city of the Sichemites, which is in the land of Chanaan, after he returned from Mesopotamia of Syria: and he dwelt by the town.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 19 And he bought that part of the field, in which he pitched his tents, of the children of Hemor, the father of Sichem, for a hundred lambs.
-Genesis Ge 1 33 20 And raising an altar there, he invoked upon it the most mighty God of Israel.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 1 And Dina the daughter of Lia went out to see the women of that country.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 2 And when Sichem the son of Hemor the Hevite, the prince of that land, saw her, he was in love with her: and took her away, and lay with her, ravishing the virgin.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 3 And his soul was fast knit unto her; and whereas she was sad, he comforted her with sweet words.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 4 And going to Hemor his father, he said: Get me this damsel to wife.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 5 But when Jacob had heard this, his sons being absent, and employed in feeding the cattle, he held his peace till they came back.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 6 And when Hemor the father of Sichem was come out to speak to Jacob,
-Genesis Ge 1 34 7 Behold his sons came from the field: and hearing what had passed, they were exceeding angry, because he had done a foul thing in Israel, and committed an unlawful act, in ravishing Jacob’s daughter.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 8 And Hemor spoke to them: The soul of my son Sichem has a longing for your daughter: give her him to wife:
-Genesis Ge 1 34 9 And let us contract marriages one with another: give us your daughters, and take you our daughters.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 10 And dwell with us: the land is at your command, till, trade, and possess it.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 11 Sichem also said to her father and to her brethren: Let me find favour in your sight, and whatsoever you shall appoint I will give:
-Genesis Ge 1 34 12 Raise the dowry, and ask gifts, and I will gladly give what you shall demand: only give me this damsel to wife.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 13 The sons of Jacob answered Sichem and his father deceitfully, being enraged at the deflowering of their sister:
-Genesis Ge 1 34 14 We cannot do what you demand, nor give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; which with us is unlawful and abominable.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 15 But in this we may be allied with you, if you will be like us, and all the male sex among you be circumcised:
-Genesis Ge 1 34 16 Then will we mutually give and take your daughters, and ours; and we will dwell with you, and will be one people:
-Genesis Ge 1 34 17 But if you will not be circumcised, we will take our daughter and depart.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 18 Their offer pleased Hemor, and Sichem, his son:
-Genesis Ge 1 34 19 And the young man made no delay, but forthwith fulfilled what was required: for he loved the damsel exceedingly, and he was the greatest man in all his father’s house.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 20 And going into the gate of the city, they spoke to the people:
-Genesis Ge 1 34 21 These men are peaceable, and are willing to dwell with us: let them trade in the land, and till it, which being large and wide wanteth men to till it: we shall take their daughters for wives, and we will give them ours.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 22 One thing there is for which so great a good is deferred: We must circumcise every male among us, following the manner of the nation.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 23 And their substance, and cattle, and all that they possess, shall be ours; only in this let us condescend, and by dwelling together, we shall make one people.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 24 And they all agreed, and circumcised all the males.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 25 And behold the third day, when the pain of the wound was greatest: two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, the brothers of Dina, taking their swords, entered boldly into the city and slew all the men.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 26 And they killed also Hemor and Sichem, and took away their sister Dina out of Sichem’s house.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 27 And when they were gone out, the other sons of Jacob came upon the slain; and plundered the city in revenge of the rape.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 28 And they took their sheep, and their herds, and their asses, wasting all they had in their houses and in their fields.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 29 And their children and wives they took captive.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 30 And when they had boldly perpetrated these things, Jacob said to Simeon and Levi: You have troubled me, and made me hateful to the Chanaanites and Pherezites, the inhabitants of this land. We are few: they will gather themselves together and kill me; and both I, and my house shall be destroyed.
-Genesis Ge 1 34 31 They answered: Should they abuse our sister as a strumpet?
-Genesis Ge 1 35 1 In the mean time God said to Jacob: Arise and go up to Bethel, and dwell there, and make there an altar to God, who appeared to thee when thou didst flee from Esau, thy brother.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 2 And Jacob having called together all his household, said: Cast away the strange gods that are among you, and be cleansed, and change your garments.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 3 Arise, and let us go up to Bethel, that we may make there an altar to God; who heard me in the day of my affliction, and accompained me in my journey.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 4 So they gave him all the strange gods they had, and the earrings which were in their ears: and he buried them under the turpentine tree, that is behind the city of Sichem.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 5 And when they were departed, the terror of God fell upon all the cities round about, and they durst not pursue after them as they went away.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 6 And Jacob came to Luza, which is in the land of Chanaan, surnamed Bethel: he and all the people that were with him.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 7 And he built there an altar, and called the name of that place, The house of God: for there God appeared to him when he fled from his brother.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 8 At the same time Debora, the nurse of Rebecca, died, and was buried at the foot of Bethel, under an oak, and the name of that place was called, The oak of weeping.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 9 And God appeared again to Jacob, after he returned from Mesopotamia of Syria, and he blessed him,
-Genesis Ge 1 35 10 Saying: Thou shalt not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name. And he called him Israel.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 11 And said to him: I am God almighty, increase thou and be multiplied. Nations and peoples of nations shall be from thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 12 And the land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give to thee, and to thy seed after thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 13 And he departed from him.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 14 But he set up a monument of stone, in the place where God had spoken to him: pouring drink-offerings upon it, and pouring oil thereon:
-Genesis Ge 1 35 15 And calling the name of that place Bethel.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 16 And going forth from thence, he came in the spring time to the land which leadeth to Ephrata: wherein when Rachel was in travail,
-Genesis Ge 1 35 17 By reason of her hard labour, she began to be in danger, and the midwife said to her: Fear not, for thou shalt have this son also.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 18 And when her soul was departing for pain, and death was now at hand, she called the name of her son Benoni, that is, the son of my pain: but his father called him Benjamin, that is, the son of the right hand.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 19 So Rachel died, and was buried in the highway that leadeth to Ephrata, this is Bethlehem.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 20 And Jacob erected a pillar over her sepulchre: this is the pillar of Rachel’s monument, to this day.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 21 Departing thence, he pitched his tent beyond the Flock tower.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 22 And when he dwelt in that country, Ruben went, and slept with Bala the concubine of his father: which he was not ignorant of. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 23 The sons of Lia: Ruben the first born, and Simeon, and Levi, and Juda, and Issachar, and Zabulon.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 24 The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 25 The sons of Bala, Rachel’s handmaid: Dan and Nephthali.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 26 The sons of Zelpha, Lia’s handmaid: Gad and Aser: these are the sons of Jacob, that were born to him in Mesopotamia of Syria.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 27 And he came to Isaac his father in Mambre, the city of Arbee, this is Hebron: wherein Abraham and Isaac sojourned.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 28 And the days of Isaac were a hundred and eighty years.
-Genesis Ge 1 35 29 And being spent with age he died, and was gathered to his people, being old and full of days: and his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 1 And these are the generations of Esau, the same is Edom.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 2 Esau took wives of the daughters of Chanaan: Ada the daughter of Elon the Hethite, and Oolibama the daughter of Ana, the daughter of Sebeon the Hevite:
-Genesis Ge 1 36 3 And Basemath, the daughter of Ismael, sister of Nabajoth.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 4 And Ada bore Eliphaz: Basemath bore Rahuel.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 5 Oolibama bore Jehus, and Ihelon, and Core. These are the sons of Esau, that were born to him in the land of Chanaan.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 6 And Esau took his wives, and his sons and daughters, and every soul of his house, and his substance, and cattle, and all that he was able to acquire in the land of Chanaan: and went into another country, and departed from his brother Jacob.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 7 For they were exceeding rich, and could not dwell together: neither was the land in which they sojourned able to bear them, for the multitude of their flocks.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 8 And Esau dwelt in mount Seir: he is Edom.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 9 And these are the generations of Esau, the father of Edom, in mount Seir.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 10 And these the names of his sons: Eliphaz the son of Ada, the wife of Esau: and Rahuel, the son of Basemath, his wife.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 11 And Eliphaz had sons: Theman, Omar, Sepho, and Gatham and Cenez.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 12 And Thamna was the concubine of Eliphaz, the son of Esau: and she bore him Amalech. These are the sons of Ada, the wife of Esau.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 13 And the sons of Rahuel were Nahath and Zara, Samma and Meza. These were the sons of Basemath, the wife of Esau.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 14 And these were the sons of Oolibama, the daughter of Ana, the daughter of Sebeon, the wife of Esau, whom she bore to him, Jehus, and Ihelon, and Core.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 15 These were dukes of the sons of Esau: the sons of Eliphaz, the firstborn of Esau: duke Theman, duke Omar, duke Sepho, duke Cenez,
-Genesis Ge 1 36 16 Duke Core, duke Gatham, duke Amalech: these are the sons of Eliphaz, in the land of Edom, and these the sons of Ada.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 17 And these were the sons of Rahuel, the son of Esau: duke Nahath, duke Zara, duke Samma, duke Meza. And these are the dukes of Rahuel, in the land of Edom: these the sons of Basemath, the wife of Esau.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 18 And these the sons of Oolibama, the wife of Esau: duke Jehus, duke Ihelon, duke Core. These are the dukes of Oolibama, the daughter of Ana, and wife of Esau.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 19 These are the sons of Esau, and these the dukes of them: the same is Edom.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 20 These are the sons of Seir, the Horrite, the inhabitants of the land: Lotan, and Sobal, and Sebeon, and Ana,
-Genesis Ge 1 36 21 And Dison, and Eser, and Disan. These are dukes of the Horrites, the sons of Seir, in the land of Edom.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 22 And Lotan had sons: Hori and Heman. And the sister of Lotan was Thamna.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 23 And these the sons of Sobal: Alvan, and Manahat, and Ebal, and Sepho, and Onam.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 24 And these the sons of Sebeon: Aia and Ana. This is Ana that found the hot waters in the wilderness, when he fed the asses of Sebeon, his father:
-Genesis Ge 1 36 25 And he had a son Dison, and a daughter Oolibama.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 26 And these were the sons of Dison: Hamdan, and Eseban, and Jethram, and Charan.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 27 These also were the sons of Eser: Balaan, and Zavan, and Acan.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 28 And Dison had sons: Hus and Aram.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 29 These were dukes of the Horrites: duke Lotan, duke Sobal, duke Sebeon, duke Ana,
-Genesis Ge 1 36 30 Duke Dison, duke Eser, duke Disan: these were dukes of the Horrites that ruled in the land of Seir.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 31 And the kings that ruled in the land of Edom, before the children of Israel had a king, were these:
-Genesis Ge 1 36 32 Bela the son of Beor, and the name of his city Denaba.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 33 And Bela died, and Jobab, the son of Zara, of Bosra, reigned in his stead.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 34 And when Jobab was dead, Husam, of the land of the Themanites, reigned in his stead.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 35 And after his death, Adad, the son of Badad, reigned in his stead, who defeated the Madianites in the country of Moab; and the name of his city was Avith.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 36 And when Adad was dead, there reigned in his stead, Semla, of Masreca.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 37 And he being dead, Saul, of the river Rohoboth, reigned in his stead.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 38 And when he also was dead, Balanan, the son of Achobor, succeeded to the kingdom.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 39 This man also being dead, Adar reigned in his place; and the name of his city was Phau: and his wife was called Meetabel, the daughter of Matred, daughter of Mezaab.
-Genesis Ge 1 36 40 And these are the names of the dukes of Esau in their kindreds, and places, and callings: duke Thamna, duke Alva, duke Jetheth,
-Genesis Ge 1 36 41 Duke Oolibama, duke Ela, duke Phinon,
-Genesis Ge 1 36 42 Duke Cenez, duke Theman, duke Mabsar,
-Genesis Ge 1 36 43 Duke Magdiel, duke Hiram: these are the dukes of Edom dwelling in the land of their government; the same is Esau, the father of the Edomites.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 1 And Jacob dwelt in the land of Chanaan, wherein his father sojourned.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 2 And these are his generations: Joseph, when he was sixteen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren, being but a boy: and he was with the sons of Bala and of Zelpha his father’s wives: and he accused his brethren to his father of a most wicked crime.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 3 Now Israel loved Joseph above all his sons, because he had him in his old age: and he made him a coat of divers colours.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 4 And his brethren seeing that he was loved by his father, more than all his sons, hated him, and could not speak peaceably to him.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 5 Now it fell out also that he told his brethren a dream, that he had dreamed: which occasioned them to hate him the more.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 6 And he said to them: Hear my dream which I dreamed.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 7 I thought we were binding sheaves in the field: and my sheaf arose as it were, and stood, and your sheaves standing about bowed down before my sheaf.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 8 His brethren answered: Shalt thou be our king? or shall we be subject to thy dominion? Therefore this matter of his dreams and words ministered nourishment to their envy and hatred.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 9 He dreamed also another dream, which he told his brethren, saying: I saw in a dream, as it were the sun, and the moon, and eleven stars worshipping me.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 10 And when he had told this to his father, and brethren, his father rebuked him and said: What meaneth this dream that thou hast dreamed? shall I and thy mother, and thy brethren worship thee upon the earth?
-Genesis Ge 1 37 11 His brethren therefore envied him: but his father considered the thing with himself.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 12 And when his brethren abode in Sechem, feeding their father’s flocks,
-Genesis Ge 1 37 13 Israel said to him: Thy brethren feed the sheep in Sichem: come, I will send thee to them. And when he answered:
-Genesis Ge 1 37 14 I am ready: he said to him: Go, and see if all things be well with thy brethren, and the cattle: and bring me word again what is doing. So being sent from the vale of Hebron, he came to Sichem:
-Genesis Ge 1 37 15 And a man found him there wandering in the field, and asked what he sought.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 16 But he answered: I seek my brethren, tell me where they feed the flocks.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 17 And the man said to him: They are departed from this place: for I heard them say: Let us go to Dothain. And Joseph went forward after his brethren, and found them in Dothain.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 18 And when they saw him afar off, before he came nigh them, they thought to kill him:
-Genesis Ge 1 37 19 And said one to another: Behold the dreamer cometh.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 20 Come, let us kill him, and cast him into some old pit: and we will say: Some evil beast hath devoured him: and then it shall appear what his dreams avail him:
-Genesis Ge 1 37 21 And Ruben hearing this, endeavoured to deliver him out of their hands, and said:
-Genesis Ge 1 37 22 Do not take away his life, nor shed his blood: but cast him into this pit, that is in the wilderness, and keep your hands harmless: now he said this, being desirous to deliver him out of their hands and to restore him to his father.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 23 And as soon as he came to his brethren, they forthwith stript him of his outside coat, that was of divers colours:
-Genesis Ge 1 37 24 And cast him into an old pit where there was not water.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 25 And sitting down to eat bread, they saw some Ismaelites on their way coming from Galaad, with their camels, carrying spices, and balm, and myrrh to Egypt.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 26 And Juda said to his brethren: What will it profit us to kill our brother, and conceal his blood?
-Genesis Ge 1 37 27 It is better that he be sold to the Ismaelites, and that our hands be not defiled: for he is our brother and our flesh. His brethren agreed to his words.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 28 And when the Madianite merchants passed by, they drew him out of the pit, and sold him to the Ismaelites, for twenty pieces of silver: and they led him into Egypt.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 29 And Ruben returning to the pit, found not the boy:
-Genesis Ge 1 37 30 And rending his garments he went to his brethren, and said: The boy doth not appear, and whither shall I go?
-Genesis Ge 1 37 31 And they took his coat, and dipped it in the blood of a kid, which they had killed:
-Genesis Ge 1 37 32 Sending some to carry it to their father, and to say: This we have found: see whether it be thy son’s coat, or not.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 33 And the father acknowledging it, said: It is my son’s coat, an evil wild beast hath eaten him, a beast hath devoured Joseph.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 34 And tearing his garments, he put on sackcloth, mourning for his son a long time.
-Genesis Ge 1 37 35 And all his children being gathered together to comfort their father in his sorrow, he would not receive comfort, but said: I will go down to my son into hell, mourning. And whilst he continued weeping,
-Genesis Ge 1 37 36 The Madianites sold Joseph in Egypt to Putiphar, an eunuch of Pharao, captain of the soldiers.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 1 At that time Juda went down from his brethren, and turned in to a certain Odollamite, named Hiras.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 2 And he saw there the daughter of a man of Chanaan, called Sue: and taking her to wife, he went in unto her.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 3 And she conceived, and bore a son, and called his name Her.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 4 And conceiving again, she bore a son, and called him Onan.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 5 She bore also a third: whom she called Sela. After whose birth, she ceased to bear any more.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 6 And Juda took a wife for Her, his first born, whose name was Thamar.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 7 And Her, the first born of Juda, was wicked in the sight of the Lord: and was slain by him.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 8 Juda, therefore, said to Onan his son: Go in to thy brother’s wife and marry her, that thou mayst raise seed to thy brother.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 9 He knowing that the children should not be his, when he went in to his brother’s wife, he spilled his seed upon the ground, lest children should be born in his brother’s name.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 10 And therefore the Lord slew him, because he did a detestable thing:
-Genesis Ge 1 38 11 Wherefore Juda said to Thamar his daughter-in-law: Remain a widow in thy father’s house, till Sela my son grow up: for he was afraid lest he also might die, as his brethren did. She went her way, and dwelt in her father’s house.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 12 And after many days were past: the daughter of Sue the wife of Juda died: and when he had taken comfort after his mourning, he went up to Thamnas, to the shearers of his sheep, he and Hiras the Odollamite, the shepherd of his flock.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 13 And it was told Thamar that her father-in-law was come up to Thamnas to shear his sheep.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 14 And she put off the garments of her widowhood, and took a veil: and changing her dress, sat in the cross way, that leadeth to Thamnas: because Sela was grown up, and she had not been married to him.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 15 When Juda saw her, he thought she was a harlot: for she had covered her face, lest she should be known.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 16 And going to her, he said: Suffer me to lie with thee: for he knew her not to be his daughter-in-law. And she answered: What wilt thou give me to enjoy my company?
-Genesis Ge 1 38 17 He said: I will send thee a kid out of the flock. And when she said again: I will suffer what thou wilt, if thou give me a pledge, till thou send what thou promisest.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 18 Juda said: What wilt thou have for a pledge? She answered: Thy ring and bracelet, and the staff which thou holdest in thy hand. The woman therefore at one copulation conceived.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 19 And she arose and went her way: and putting off the apparel which she had taken, put on the garments of her widowhood.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 20 And Juda sent a kid by his shepherd, the Odollamite, that he might receive the pledge again, which he had given to the woman: but he, not finding her,
-Genesis Ge 1 38 21 Asked the men of that place: Where is the woman that sat in the cross way? And when they all made answer: There was no harlot in this place,
-Genesis Ge 1 38 22 He returned to Juda, and said to him: I have not found her; moreover, the men of that place said to me, that there never sat a harlot there.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 23 Juda said: Let her take it to herself, surely she cannot charge us with a lie, I sent the kid which I promised: and thou didst not find her.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 24 And behold, after three months, they told Juda, saying: Thamar, thy daughter-in-law, hath played the harlot, and she appeareth to have a big belly. And Juda said: Bring her out that she may be burnt.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 25 But when she was led to execution, she sent to her father in law, saying: By the man, to whom these things belong, I am with child. See whose ring, and bracelet, and staff this is.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 26 But he acknowledging the gifts, said: She is juster than I: because I did not give her to Sela, my son. However he knew her no more.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 27 And when she was ready to be brought to bed, there appeared twins in her womb: and in the very delivery of the infants, one put forth a hand, whereon the midwife tied a scarlet thread, saying:
-Genesis Ge 1 38 28 This shall come forth the first.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 29 But he drawing back his hand, the other came forth: and the woman said: Why is the partition divided for thee? and therefore called his name Phares.
-Genesis Ge 1 38 30 Afterwards his brother came out, on whose hand was the scarlet thread: and she called his name Zara.
-Genesis Ge 1 39 1 And Joseph was brought into Egypt, and Putiphar, an eunuch of Pharao, chief captain of the army, an Egyptian, bought him of the Ismaelites, by whom he was brought.
-Genesis Ge 1 39 2 And the Lord was with him, and he was a prosperous man in all things: and he dwelt in his master’s house:
-Genesis Ge 1 39 3 Who knew very well that the Lord was with him, and made all that he did to prosper in his hand.
-Genesis Ge 1 39 4 And Joseph found favour in the sight of his master, and ministered to him: and being set over all by him, he governed the house committed to him, and all things that were delivered to him:
-Genesis Ge 1 39 5 And the Lord blessed the house of the Egyptian for Joseph’s sake, and multiplied all his substance, both at home and in the fields.
-Genesis Ge 1 39 6 Neither knew he any other thing, but the bread which he ate. And Joseph was of a beautiful countenance, and comely to behold.
-Genesis Ge 1 39 7 And after many days, his mistress cast her eyes on Joseph, and said: Lie with me.
-Genesis Ge 1 39 8 But he in no wise consenting to that wicked act said to her: Behold, my master hath delivered all things to me, and knoweth not what he hath in his own house:
-Genesis Ge 1 39 9 Neither is there any thing which is not in my power, or that he hath not delivered to me, but thee, who art his wife; how then can I do this wicked thing, and sin against my God?
-Genesis Ge 1 39 10 With such words as these day by day, both the woman was importunate with the young man, and he refused the adultery.
-Genesis Ge 1 39 11 Now it happened on a certain day, that Joseph went into the house, and was doing some business, without any man with him:
-Genesis Ge 1 39 12 And she catching the skirt of his garment, said: Lie with me. But he leaving the garment in her hand, fled, and went out.
-Genesis Ge 1 39 13 And when the woman saw the garment in her hands, and herself disregarded,
-Genesis Ge 1 39 14 She called to her the men of her house, and said to them: See, he hath brought in a Hebrew, to abuse us: he came in to me, to lie with me; and when I cried out,
-Genesis Ge 1 39 15 And he heard my voice, he left the garment that I held, and got him out.
-Genesis Ge 1 39 16 For a proof therefore of her fidelity, she kept the garment, and shewed it to her husband when he returned home:
-Genesis Ge 1 39 17 And said: The Hebrew servant, whom thou hast brought, came to me to abuse me.
-Genesis Ge 1 39 18 And when he heard me cry, he left the garment which I held, and fled out.
-Genesis Ge 1 39 19 His master hearing these things, and giving too much credit to his wife’s words, was very angry,
-Genesis Ge 1 39 20 And cast Joseph into the prison, where the king’s prisoners were kept, and he was there shut up.
-Genesis Ge 1 39 21 But the Lord was with Joseph, and having mercy upon him gave him favour in the sight of the chief keeper of the prison:
-Genesis Ge 1 39 22 Who delivered into his hand all the prisoners that were kept in custody: and whatsoever was done, was under him.
-Genesis Ge 1 39 23 Neither did he himself know any thing, having committed all things to him: for the Lord was with him, and made all that he did to prosper.
-Genesis Ge 1 40 1 After this, it came to pass, that two eunuchs, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, offended their lord.
-Genesis Ge 1 40 2 And Pharao being angry with them, (now the one was chief butler, the other chief baker,)
-Genesis Ge 1 40 3 He sent them to the prison of the commander of the soldiers, in which Joseph also was prisoner.
-Genesis Ge 1 40 4 But the keeper of the prison delivered them to Joseph, and he served them. Some little time passed, and they were kept in custody.
-Genesis Ge 1 40 5 And they both dreamed a dream the same night, according to the interpretation agreeing to themselves:
-Genesis Ge 1 40 6 And when Joseph was come into them in the morning, and saw them sad,
-Genesis Ge 1 40 7 He asked them, saying: Why is your countenance sadder today than usual?
-Genesis Ge 1 40 8 They answered: We have dreamed a dream, and there is nobody to interpret it to us. And Joseph said to them: Doth not interpretation belong to God? Tell me what you have dreamed:
-Genesis Ge 1 40 9 The chief butler first told his dream: I saw before me a vine,
-Genesis Ge 1 40 10 On which were three branches, which by little and little sent out buds, and after the blossoms brought forth ripe grapes:
-Genesis Ge 1 40 11 And the cup of Pharao was in my hand: and I took the grapes, and pressed them into the cup which I held, and I gave the cup to Pharao.
-Genesis Ge 1 40 12 Joseph answered: This is the interpretation of the dream: The three branches, are yet three days:
-Genesis Ge 1 40 13 After which Pharao will remember thy service, and will restore thee to thy former place: and thou shalt present him the cup according to thy office, as before thou was wont to do.
-Genesis Ge 1 40 14 Only remember me when it shall be well with thee, and do me this kindness: to put Pharao in mind to take me out of this prison:
-Genesis Ge 1 40 15 For I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews, and here without any fault was cast into the dungeon.
-Genesis Ge 1 40 16 The chief baker seeing that he had wisely interpreted the dream, said: I also dreamed a dream, That I had three baskets of meal upon my head:
-Genesis Ge 1 40 17 And that in one basket which was uppermost, I carried all meats that are made by the art of baking, and that the birds ate out of it.
-Genesis Ge 1 40 18 Joseph answered: This is the interpretation of the dream: The three baskets, are yet three days:
-Genesis Ge 1 40 19 After which Pharao will take thy head from thee, and hang thee on a cross, and the birds shall tear thy flesh.
-Genesis Ge 1 40 20 The third day after this was the birthday of Pharao: and he made a great feast for his servants, and at the banquet remembered the chief butler, and the chief baker.
-Genesis Ge 1 40 21 And he restored the one to his place, to present him the cup:
-Genesis Ge 1 40 22 The other he hanged on a gibbet, that the truth of the interpreter might be shewn.
-Genesis Ge 1 40 23 But the chief butler, when things prospered with him, forgot his interpreter.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 1 After two years Pharao had a dream. He thought he stood by the river,
-Genesis Ge 1 41 2 Out of which came up seven kine, very beautiful and fat: and they fed in marshy places.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 3 Other seven also came up out of the river, ill-favoured, and lean fleshed: and they fed on the very bank of the river, in green places:
-Genesis Ge 1 41 4 And they devoured them, whose bodies were very beautiful and well conditioned. So Pharao awoke.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 5 He slept again, and dreamed another dream: Seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk full and fair:
-Genesis Ge 1 41 6 Then seven other ears sprung up thin and blasted,
-Genesis Ge 1 41 7 And devoured all the beauty of the former. Pharao awaked after his rest:
-Genesis Ge 1 41 8 And when morning was come, being struck with fear, he sent to all the interpreters of Egypt, and to all the wise men: and they being called for, he told them his dream, and there was not any one that could interpret it.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 9 Then at length the chief butler remembering, said: I confess my sin:
-Genesis Ge 1 41 10 The king being angry with his servants, commanded me and the chief baker to be cast into the prison of the captain of the soldiers.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 11 Where in one night both of us dreamed a dream foreboding things to come.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 12 There was there a young man a Hebrew, servant to the same captain of the soldiers: to whom we told our dreams,
-Genesis Ge 1 41 13 And we heard what afterwards the event of the thing proved to be so. For I was restored to my office: and he was hanged upon a gibbet.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 14 Forthwith at the king’s command Joseph was brought out of the prison, and they shaved him: and changing his apparel brought him in to him.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 15 And he said to him: I have dreamed dreams, and there is no one that can expound them: Now I have heard that thou art very wise at interpreting them:
-Genesis Ge 1 41 16 Joseph answered: Without me, God shall give Pharao a prosperous answer.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 17 So Pharao told what he had dreamed: Methought I stood upon the bank of the river,
-Genesis Ge 1 41 18 And seven kine came up out of the river, exceeding beautiful and full of flesh: and they grazed on green places in a marshy pasture.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 19 And behold, there followed these, other seven kine, so very ill-favoured and lean, that I never saw the like in the land of Egypt:
-Genesis Ge 1 41 20 And they devoured and consumed the former,
-Genesis Ge 1 41 21 And yet gave no mark of their being full: but were as lean and ill-favoured as before. I awoke, and then fell asleep again,
-Genesis Ge 1 41 22 And dreamed a dream: Seven ears of corn grew up upon one stalk, full and very fair.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 23 Other seven also thin and blasted, sprung of the stalk:
-Genesis Ge 1 41 24 And they devoured the beauty of the former: I told this dream to the conjecturers, and there is no man that can expound it.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 25 Joseph answered: The king’s dream is one: God hath shewn to Pharao what he is about to do.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 26 The seven beautiful kine, and the seven full ears, are seven years of plenty: and both contain the same meaning of the dream.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 27 And the seven lean and thin kine that came up after them, and the seven thin ears that were blasted with the burning wind, are seven years of famine to come:
-Genesis Ge 1 41 28 Which shall be fulfilled in this order.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 29 Behold, there shall come seven years of great plenty in the whole land of Egypt:
-Genesis Ge 1 41 30 After which shall follow other seven years of so great scarcity, that all the abundance before shall be forgotten: for the famine shall consume all the land,
-Genesis Ge 1 41 31 And the greatness of the scarcity shall destroy the greatness of the plenty.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 32 And for that thou didst see the second time a dream pertaining to the same thing: it is a token of the certainty, and that the word of God cometh to pass, and is fulfilled speedily.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 33 Now therefore let the king provide a wise and industrious man, and make him ruler over the land of Egypt:
-Genesis Ge 1 41 34 That he may appoint overseers over all the countries: and gather into barns the fifth part of the fruits, during the seven fruitful years,
-Genesis Ge 1 41 35 That shall now presently ensue: and let all the corn be laid up, under Pharao’s hands, and be reserved in the cities.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 36 And let it be in readiness, against the famine of seven years to come, which shall oppress Egypt, and the land shall not be consumed with scarcity.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 37 The counsel pleased Pharao, and all his servants.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 38 And he said to them: Can we find such another man, that is full of the spirit of God?
-Genesis Ge 1 41 39 He said therefore to Joseph: Seeing God hath shewn thee all that thou hast said, can I find one wiser and one like unto thee?
-Genesis Ge 1 41 40 Thou shalt be over my house, and at the commandment of thy mouth all the people shall obey: only in the kingly throne will I be above thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 41 And again Pharao said to Joseph: Behold, I have appointed thee over the whole land of Egypt.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 42 And he took his ring from his own hand, and gave it into his hand: and he put upon him a robe of silk, and put a chain of gold about his neck.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 43 And he made him go up into his second chariot, the crier proclaiming that all should bow their knee before him, and that they should know he was made governor over the whole land of Egypt.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 44 And the king said to Joseph: I am Pharao: without thy commandment no man shall move hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 45 And he turned his name, and called him in the Egyptian tongue the saviour of the world. And he gave him to wife Aseneth, the daughter of Putiphare, priest of Heliopolis. Then Joseph went out to the land of Egypt.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 46 (Now he was thirty years old when he stood before king Pharao), and he went round all the countries of Egypt.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 47 And the fruitfulness of the seven years came: and the corn being bound up into sheaves, was gathered together into the barns of Egypt.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 48 And all the abundance of grain was laid up in every city.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 49 And there was so great abundance of wheat, that it was equal to the sand of the sea, and the plenty exceeded measure.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 50 And before the famine came, Joseph had two sons born: whom Aseneth, the daughter of Putiphare, priest of Heliopolis, bore unto him.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 51 And he called the name of the firstborn Manasses, saying: God hath made me to forget all my labours, and my father’s house.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 52 And he named the second Ephraim, saying: God hath made me to grow in the land of my poverty.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 53 Now when the seven years of plenty that had been in Egypt were passed:
-Genesis Ge 1 41 54 The seven years of scarcity, which Joseph had foretold, began to come: and the famine prevailed in the whole world, but there was bread in all the land of Egypt.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 55 And when there also they began to be famished, the people cried to Pharao, for food. And he said to them: Go to Joseph: and do all that he shall say to you.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 56 And the famine increased daily in all the land: and Joseph opened all the barns, and sold to the Egyptians: for the famine had oppressed them also.
-Genesis Ge 1 41 57 And all provinces came into Egypt, to buy food, and to seek some relief of their want.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 1 And Jacob hearing that food was sold in Egypt, said to his sons: Why are ye careless?
-Genesis Ge 1 42 2 I have heard that wheat is sold in Egypt: Go ye down, and buy us necessaries, that we may live, and not be consumed with want.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 3 So the ten brethren of Joseph went down, to buy corn in Egypt:
-Genesis Ge 1 42 4 Whilst Benjamin was kept at home by Jacob, who said to his brethren: Lest perhaps he take any harm in the journey.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 5 And they entered into the land of Egypt with others that went to buy. For the famine was in the land of Chanaan.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 6 And Joseph was governor in the land of Egypt, and corn was sold by his direction to the people. And when his brethren had bowed down to him,
-Genesis Ge 1 42 7 And he knew them, he spoke as it were to strangers, somewhat roughly, asking them: Whence came you? They answered: From the land of Chanaan, to buy necessaries of life.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 8 And though he knew his brethren, he was not known by them.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 9 And remembering the dreams, which formerly he had dreamed, he said to them: You are spies. You are come to view the weaker parts of the land.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 10 But they said: It is not so, my lord; but thy servants are come to buy food.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 11 We are all the sons of one man: we are come as peaceable men, neither do thy servants go about any evil.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 12 And he answered them: It is otherwise: you are come to consider the unfenced parts of this land.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 13 But they said: We thy servants are twelve brethren, the sons of one man in the land of Chanaan: the youngest is with our father, the other is not living.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 14 He saith, This is it that I said: You are spies.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 15 I shall now presently try what you are: by the health of Pharao, you shall not depart hence, until your youngest brother come.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 16 Send one of you to fetch him: and you shall be in prison, till what you have said be proved, whether it be true or false: or else by the health of Pharao you are spies.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 17 So he put them in prison three days.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 18 And the third day he brought them out of prison, and said: Do as I have said, and you shall live: for I fear God.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 19 If you be peaceable men, let one of your brethren be bound in prison: and go ye your ways, and carry the corn that you have bought, unto your houses.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 20 And bring your youngest brother to me, that I may find your words to be true, and you may not die. They did as he had said.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 21 And they talked one to another: We deserve to suffer these things, because we have sinned against our brother, seeing the anguish of his soul, when he besought us, and we would not hear: therefore is this affliction come upon us.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 22 And Ruben, one of them, said: Did not I say to you: Do not sin against the boy; and you would not hear me? Behold his blood is required.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 23 And they knew not that Joseph understood, because he spoke to them by an interpreter.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 24 And he turned himself away a little while, and wept: and returning, he spoke to them.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 25 And taking Simeon, and binding him in their presence, he commanded his servants to fill their sacks with wheat, and to put every man’s money again in their sacks, and to give them besides provisions for the way: and they did so.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 26 But they having loaded their asses with the corn went their way.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 27 And one of them opening his sack, to give his beast provender in the inn, saw the money in the sack’s mouth,
-Genesis Ge 1 42 28 And said to his brethren: My money is given me again; behold it is in the sack. And they were astonished, and troubled, and said to one another: What is this that God hath done unto us?
-Genesis Ge 1 42 29 And they came to Jacob their father in the land of Chanaan, and they told him all things that had befallen them, saying:
-Genesis Ge 1 42 30 The lord of the land spoke roughly to us, and took us to be spies of the country.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 31 And we answered him: We are peaceable men, and we mean no plot.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 32 We are twelve brethren born of one father: one is not living, the youngest is with our father in the land of Chanaan.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 33 And he said to us: Hereby shall I know that you are peaceable men: Leave one of your brethren with me, and take ye necessary provision for your houses, and go your ways,
-Genesis Ge 1 42 34 And bring your youngest brother to me, that I may know you are not spies: and you may receive this man again, that is kept in prison: and afterwards may have leave to buy what you will.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 35 When they had told this, they poured out their corn, and every man found his money tied in the mouth of his sack: and all being astonished together,
-Genesis Ge 1 42 36 Their father Jacob said: You have made me to be without children: Joseph is not living, Simeon is kept in bonds, and Benjamin you will take away: all these evils are fallen upon me.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 37 And Ruben answered him: Kill my two sons, if I bring him not again to thee: deliver him into my hand, and I will restore him to thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 42 38 But he said: My son shall not go down with you: his brother is dead, and he is left alone: if any mischief befall him in the land to which you go, you will bring down my grey hairs with sorrow to hell.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 1 In the mean time the famine was heavy upon all the land.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 2 And when they had eaten up all the corn, which they had brought out of Egypt, Jacob said to his sons: Go again, and buy us a little food.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 3 Juda answered: The man declared unto us with the attestation of an oath, saying: You shall not see my face, unless you bring your youngest brother with you.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 4 If therefore thou wilt send him with us, we will set out together, and will buy necessaries for thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 5 But if thou wilt not, we will not go: for the man, as we have often said, declared unto us, saying: You shall not see my face without your youngest brother.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 6 Israel said to them: You have done this for my misery, in that you told him you had also another brother.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 7 But they answered: The man asked us in order concerning our kindred: if our father lived: if we had a brother: and we answered him regularly, according to what he demanded: could we know that he would say: Bring hither your brother with you?
-Genesis Ge 1 43 8 And Juda said to his father: Send the boy with me, that we may set forward, and may live: lest both we and our children perish.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 9 I take the boy upon me, require him at my hand: unless I bring him again, and restore him to thee, I will be guilty of sin against thee for ever.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 10 If delay had not been made, we had been here again the second time.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 11 Then Israel said to them: If it must needs be so, do what you will: take of the best fruits of the land in your vessels, and carry down presents to the man, a little balm, and honey, and storax, myrrh, turpentine, and almonds.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 12 And take with you double money, and carry back what you found in your sacks, lest perhaps it was done by mistake.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 13 And take also your brother, and go to the man.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 14 And may my almighty God make him favourable to you: and send back with you your brother, whom he keepeth, and this Benjamin: and as for me I shall be desolate without children.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 15 So the men took the presents, and double money, and Benjamin: and went down into Egypt, and stood before Joseph.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 16 And when he had seen them, and Benjamin with them, he commanded the steward of his house, saying: Bring in the men into the house, and kill victims, and prepare a feast: because they shall eat with me at noon.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 17 He did as he was commanded, and brought the men into the house.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 18 And they being much afraid, said there one to another: Because of the money, which we carried back the first time in our sacks, we are brought in: that he may bring upon us a false accusation, and by violence make slaves of us and our asses.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 19 Wherefore, going up to the steward of the house, at the door,
-Genesis Ge 1 43 20 They said: Sir, we desire thee to hear us. We came down once before to buy food:
-Genesis Ge 1 43 21 And when we had bought, and were come to the inn, we opened our sacks, and found our money in the mouths of the sacks: which we have now brought again in the same weight.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 22 And we have brought other money besides, to buy what we want: we cannot tell who put it in our bags.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 23 But he answered: Peace be with you, fear not: your God, and the God of your father, hath given you treasure in your sacks. For the money, which you gave me, I have for good. And he brought Simeon out to them.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 24 And having brought them into the house, he fetched water, and they washed their feet, and he gave provender to their asses.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 25 But they made ready the presents, against Joseph came at noon: for they had heard that they should eat bread there.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 26 Then Joseph came in to his house, and they offered him the presents, holding them in their hands; and they bowed down with their face to the ground.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 27 But he courteously saluting them again, asked them, saying: Is the old man your father in health, of whom you told me? Is he yet living?
-Genesis Ge 1 43 28 And they answered: Thy servant our father, is in health; he is yet living. And bowing themselves, they made obeisance to him.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 29 And Joseph lifting up his eyes, saw Benjamin, his brother by the same mother, and said: Is this your young brother, of whom you told me? And he said: God be gracious to thee, my son.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 30 And he made haste, because his heart was moved upon his brother, and tears gushed out: and going into his chamber, he wept.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 31 And when he had washed his face, coming out again, he refrained himself, and said: Set bread on the table.
-Genesis Ge 1 43 32 And when it was set on, for Joseph apart, and for his brethren apart, for the Egyptians also that ate with him apart, (for it is unlawful for the Egyptians to eat with the Hebrews, and they think such a feast profane):
-Genesis Ge 1 43 33 They sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright, and the youngest according to his age. And they wondered very much;
-Genesis Ge 1 43 34 Taking the messes which they received of him: and the greater mess came to Benjamin, so that it exceeded by five parts. And they drank, and were merry with him.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 1 And Joseph commanded the steward of his house, saying: Fill their sacks with corn, as much as they can hold: and put the money of every one in the top of his sack.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 2 And in the mouth of the younger’s sack put my silver cup, and the price which he gave for the wheat. And it was so done.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 3 And when the morning arose, they were sent away with their asses.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 4 And when they were now departed out of the city, and had gone forward a little way: Joseph sending for the steward of his house, said: Arise, and pursue after the men: and when thou hast overtaken them, say to them: Why have you returned evil for good?
-Genesis Ge 1 44 5 The cup which you have stolen, is that in which my lord drinketh, and in which he is wont to divine: you have done a very evil thing.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 6 He did as he had commanded him. And having overtaken them, he spoke to them the same words.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 7 And they answered: Why doth our lord speak so, as though thy servants had committed so heinous a fact?
-Genesis Ge 1 44 8 The money, that we found in the top of our sacks, we brought back to thee from the land of Chanaan: how then should it be that we should steal out of thy lord’s house, gold or silver?
-Genesis Ge 1 44 9 With whomsoever of thy servants shall be found that which thou seekest, let him die, and we will be the bondmen of my lord.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 10 And he said to them: Let it be according to your sentence: with whomsoever it shall be found, let him be my servant, and you shall be blameless.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 11 Then they speedily took down their sacks to the ground, and every man opened his sack.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 12 Which when he had searched, beginning at the eldest, and ending at the youngest, he found the cup in Benjamin’s sack.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 13 Then they rent their garments, and loading their asses again, returned into the town.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 14 And Juda at the head of his brethren went in to Joseph (for he was not yet gone out of the place) and they all together fell down before him on the ground.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 15 And he said to them: Why would you do so? know you not that there is no one like me in the science of divining.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 16 And Juda said to him: What shall we answer my lord? or what shall we say, or be able justly to allege? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold, we are all bondmen to my lord, both we, and he with whom the cup was found.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 17 Joseph answered: God forbid that I should do so: he that stole the cup, he shall be my bondman: and go you away free to your father.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 18 Then Juda coming nearer, said boldly: I beseech thee, my lord, let thy servant speak a word in thy ears, and be not angry with thy servant: for after Pharao thou art.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 19 My lord. Thou didst ask thy servants the first time: Have you a father or a brother.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 20 And we answered thee, my lord: We have a father an old man, and a young boy, that was born in his old age; whose brother by the mother is dead; and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him tenderly.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 21 And thou saidst to thy servants: Bring him hither to me, and I will set my eyes on him.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 22 We suggested to my lord: The boy cannot leave his father: for if he leave him, he will die.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 23 And thou saidst to thy servants: Except your youngest brother come with you, you shall see my face no more.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 24 Therefore when we were gone up to thy servant our father, we told him all that my lord had said.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 25 And our father said: Go again, and buy us a little wheat.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 26 And we said to him: We cannot go: if our youngest brother go down with us, we will set out together: otherwise, without him we dare not see the man’s face.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 27 Whereunto he answered: You know that my wife bore me two.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 28 One went out, and you said: A beast devoured him; and hitherto he appeareth not.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 29 If you take this also, and any thing befall him in the way, you will bring down my grey hairs with sorrow unto hell.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 30 Therefore, if I shall go to thy servant, our father, and the boy be wanting, (whereas his life dependeth upon the life of him,)
-Genesis Ge 1 44 31 And he shall see that he is not with us, he will die, and thy servants shall bring down his grey hairs with sorrow unto hell.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 32 Let me be thy proper servant, who took him into my trust, and promised, saying: If I bring him not again, I will be guilty of sin against my father for ever.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 33 Therefore I, thy servant, will stay instead of the boy in the service of my lord, and let the boy go up with his brethren.
-Genesis Ge 1 44 34 For I cannot return to my father without the boy, lest I be a witness of the calamity that will oppress my father.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 1 Joseph could no longer refrain himself before many that stood by: whereupon he commanded that all should go out, and no stranger be present at their knowing one another.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 2 And he lifted up his voice with weeping, which the Egyptians, and all the house of Pharao heard.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 3 And he said to his brethren: I am Joseph: Is my father yet living? His brethren could not answer him, being struck with exceeding great fear.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 4 And he said mildly to them: Come nearer to me. And when they were come near him, he said: I am Joseph, your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 5 Be not afraid, and let it not seem to you a hard case that you sold me into these countries: for God sent me before you into Egypt for your preservation.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 6 For it is two years since the famine began to be upon the land, and five years more remain, wherein there can be neither ploughing nor reaping.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 7 And God sent me before, that you may be preserved upon the earth, and may have food to live.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 8 Not by your counsel was I sent hither, but by the will of God: who hath made me as it were a father to Pharao, and lord of his whole house, and governor in all the land of Egypt.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 9 Make haste, and go ye up to my father, and say to him: Thus saith thy son Joseph: God hath made me lord of the whole land of Egypt; come down to me, linger not.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 10 And thou shalt dwell in the land of Gessen: and thou shalt be near me, thou and thy sons, and thy sons’ sons, thy sheep, and thy herds, and all things that thou hast.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 11 And there I will feed thee, (for there are yet five years of famine remaining) lest both thou perish, and thy house, and all things that thou hast.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 12 Behold, your eyes, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, see that it is my mouth that speaketh to you.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 13 You shall tell my father of all my glory, and all things that you have seen in Egypt: make haste and bring him to me.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 14 And falling upon the neck of his brother Benjamin, he embraced him and wept: and Benjamin in like manner wept also on his neck.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 15 And Joseph kissed all his brethren, and wept upon every one of them: after which they were emboldened to speak to him.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 16 And it was heard, and the fame was spread abroad in the king’s court: The brethren of Joseph are come; and Pharao with all his family was glad.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 17 And he spoke to Joseph that he should give orders to his brethren, saying: Load your beasts, and go into the land of Chanaan,
-Genesis Ge 1 45 18 And bring away from thence your father and kindred, and come to me; and I will give you all the good things of Egypt, that you may eat the marrow of the land.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 19 Give orders also that they take wagons out of the land of Egypt, for the carriage of their children and their wives; and say: Take up your father, and make haste to come with all speed:
-Genesis Ge 1 45 20 And leave nothing of your household stuff; for all the riches of Egypt shall be yours.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 21 And the sons of Israel did as they were bid. And Joseph gave them wagons according to Pharao’s commandment: and provisions for the way.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 22 He ordered also to be brought out for every one of them two robes: but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver, with five robes of the best:
-Genesis Ge 1 45 23 Sending to his father as much money and raiment; adding besides, ten he-asses, to carry off all the riches of Egypt, and as many she-asses, carrying wheat and bread for the journey.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 24 So he sent away his brethren, and at their departing said to them: Be not angry in the way.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 25 And they went up out of Egypt, and came into the land of Chanaan, to their father Jacob.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 26 And they told him, saying: Joseph, thy son, is living; and he is ruler in all the land of Egypt. Which when Jacob heard, he awaked as it were out of a deep sleep, yet did not believe them.
-Genesis Ge 1 45 27 They, on the other side, told the whole order of the thing. And when he saw the wagons, and all that he had sent, his spirit revived,
-Genesis Ge 1 45 28 And he said: It is enough for me if Joseph, my son, be yet living: I will go and see him before I die.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 1 And Israel taking his journey, with all that he had, came to the well of the oath, and killing victims there to the God of his father Isaac,
-Genesis Ge 1 46 2 He heard him, by a vision in the night, calling him, and saying to him: Jacob, Jacob. And he answered him: Lo, here I am.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 3 God said to him: I am the most mighty God of thy father; fear not, go down into Egypt, for I will make a great nation of thee there.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 4 I will go down with thee thither, and will bring thee back again from thence: Joseph also shall put his hands upon thy eyes.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 5 And Jacob rose up from the well of the oath: and his sons took him up, with their children and wives in the wagons, which Pharao had sent to carry the old man,
-Genesis Ge 1 46 6 And all that he had in the land of Chanaan: and he came into Egypt with all his seed;
-Genesis Ge 1 46 7 His sons, and grandsons, daughters, and all his offspring together.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 8 And these are the names of the children of Israel, that entered into Egypt, he and his children. His firstborn Ruben,
-Genesis Ge 1 46 9 The sons of Ruben: Henoch and Phallu, and Hesron and Charmi.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 10 The sons of Simeon: Jamuel and Jamin and Ahod, and Jachin and Sohar, and Saul, the son of a woman of Chanaan.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 11 The sons of Levi: Gerson and Caath, and Merari.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 12 The sons of Juda: Her and Onan, and Sela, and Phares and Zara. And Her and Onan died in the land of Chanaan. And sons were born to Phares: Hesron and Hamul.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 13 The sons of Issachar: Thola and Phua, and Job and Semron.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 14 The sons of Zabulon: Sared, and Elon, and Jahelel.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 15 These are the sons of Lia, whom she bore in Mesopotamia of Syria, with Dina, his daughter. All the souls of her sons and daughters, thirty-three.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 16 The sons of Gad: Sephion and Haggi, and Suni and Esebon, and Heri and Arodi, and Areli.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 17 The sons of Aser: Jamne and Jesua, and Jessuri and Beria, and Sara their sister. The sons of Beria: Heber and Melchiel.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 18 These are the sons of Zelpha, whom Laban gave to Lia, his daughter. And these she bore to Jacob, sixteen souls.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 19 The sons of Rachel, Jacob’s wife: Joseph and Benjamin.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 20 And sons were born to Joseph, in the land of Egypt, whom Aseneth, the daughter of Putiphare, priest of Heliopolis, bore him: Manasses and Ephraim.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 21 The sons of Benjamin: Bela and Bechor, and Asbel and Gera, and Naaman and Echi, and Ross and Mophim, and Ophim and Ared.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 22 These are the sons of Rachel, whom she bore to Jacob: all the souls, fourteen.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 23 The sons of Dan: Husim.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 24 The sons of Nephthali: Jaziel and Guni, and Jeser and Sallem.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 25 These are the sons of Bala, whom Laban gave to Rachel, his daughter: and these she bore to Jacob: all the souls, seven.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 26 All the souls that went with Jacob into Egypt, and that came out of his thigh, besides his sons’ wives, sixty-six.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 27 And the sons of Joseph, that were born to him in the land of Egypt, two souls. All the souls of the house of Jacob, that entered into Egypt, were seventy.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 28 And he sent Juda before him to Joseph, to tell him; and that he should meet him in Gessen.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 29 And when he was come thither, Joseph made ready his chariot, and went up to meet his father in the same place: and seeing him, he fell upon his neck, and embracing him, wept.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 30 And the father said to Joseph: Now shall I die with joy, because I have seen thy face, and leave thee alive.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 31 And Joseph said to his brethren, and to all his father’s house: I will go up, and will tell Pharao, and will say to him: My brethren, and my father’s house, that were in the land of Chanaan, are come to me:
-Genesis Ge 1 46 32 And the men are shepherds, and their occupation is to feed cattle; their flocks, and herds, and all they have, they have brought with them.
-Genesis Ge 1 46 33 And when he shall call you, and shall say: What is your occupation?
-Genesis Ge 1 46 34 You shall answer: We, thy servants, are shepherds, from our infancy until now, both we and our fathers. And this you shall say, that you may dwell in the land of Gessen, because the Egyptians have all shepherds in abomination.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 1 Then Joseph went in and told Pharao, saying: My father and brethren, their sheep and their herds, and all that they possess, are come out of the land of Chanaan: and behold they stay in the land of Gessen.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 2 Five men also, the last of his brethren, he presented before the king:
-Genesis Ge 1 47 3 And he asked them: What is your occupation? They answered: We, thy servants, are shepherds, both we and our fathers.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 4 We are come to sojourn in thy land, because there is no grass for the flocks of thy servants, the famine being very grievous in the land of Chanaan: and we pray thee to give orders that we thy servants may be in the land of Gessen.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 5 The king therefore said to Joseph: Thy father and thy brethren are come to thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 6 The land of Egypt is before thee: and make them dwell in the best place, and give them the land of Gessen. And if thou knowest that there are industrious men among them, make them rulers over my cattle.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 7 After this Joseph brought in his father to the king, and presented him before him: and he blessed him.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 8 And being asked by him: How many are the days of the years of thy life?
-Genesis Ge 1 47 9 He answered: The days of my pilgrimage are a hundred and thirty years, few, and evil, and they are not come up to the days of the pilgrimage of my fathers.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 10 And blessing the king, he went out.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 11 But Joseph gave a possession to his father and his brethren in Egypt, in the best place of the land, in Ramesses, as Pharao had commanded.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 12 And he nourished them, and all his father’s house, allowing food to every one.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 13 For in the whole world there was want of bread, and a famine had oppressed the land, more especially of Egypt and Chanaan;
-Genesis Ge 1 47 14 Out of which he gathered up all the money for the corn which they bought, and brought it in to the king’s treasure.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 15 And when the buyers wanted money, all Egypt came to Joseph, saying: Give us bread: why should we die in thy presence, having now no money?
-Genesis Ge 1 47 16 And he answered them: Bring me your cattle, and for them I will give you food, if you have no money.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 17 And when they had brought them, he gave them food in exchange for their horses, and sheep, and oxen, and asses: and he maintained them that year for the exchange of their cattle.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 18 And they came the second year, and said to him: We will not hide from our lord, how that our money is spent, and our cattle also are gone: neither art thou ignorant that we have nothing now left but our bodies and our lands.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 19 Why therefore shall we die before thy eyes? we will be thine, both we and our lands: buy us to be the king’s servants, and give us seed, lest for want of tillers the land be turned into a wilderness.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 20 So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt, every man selling his possessions, because of the greatness of the famine. And he brought it into Pharao’s hands:
-Genesis Ge 1 47 21 And all its people from one end of the borders of Egypt, even to the other end thereof,
-Genesis Ge 1 47 22 Except the land of the priests, which had been given them by the king: to whom also a certain allowance of food was given out of the public stores, and therefore they were not forced to sell their possessions.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 23 Then Joseph said to the people: Behold, as you see, both you and your lands belong to Pharao; take seed and sow the fields,
-Genesis Ge 1 47 24 That you may have corn. The fifth part you shall give to the king; the other four you shall have for seed, and for food for your families and children.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 25 And they answered: our life is in thy hand; only let my lord look favourably upon us, and we will gladly serve the king.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 26 From that time unto this day, in the whole land of Egypt, the fifth part is paid to the kings, and it is become as a law, except the land of the priests, which was free from this covenant.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 27 So Israel dwelt in Egypt, that is, in the land of Gessen, and possessed it; and grew, and was multiplied exceedingly.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 28 And he lived in it seventeen years: and all the days of his life came to a hundred and forty-seven years.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 29 And when he saw that the day of his death drew nigh, he called his son Joseph, and said to him: If I have found favour in thy sight, put thy hand under my thigh; and thou shalt shew me this kindness and truth, not to bury me in Egypt.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 30 But I will sleep with my fathers, and thou shalt take me away out of this land, and bury me in the burying place of my ancestors. And Joseph answered him: I will do what thou hast commanded.
-Genesis Ge 1 47 31 And he said: Swear then to me. And as he was swearing, Israel adored God, turning to the bed’s head.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 1 After these things, it was told Joseph that his father was sick; and he set out to go to him, taking his two sons Manasses and Ephraim.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 2 And it was told the old man: Behold thy son Joseph cometh to thee. And being strengthened, he sat on his bed.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 3 And when Joseph was come in to him, he said: God almighty appeared to me at Luza, which is in the land of Chanaan, and he blessed me,
-Genesis Ge 1 48 4 And said: I will cause thee to increase and multiply, and I will make of thee a multitude of people: and I will give this land to thee, and to thy seed after thee for an everlasting possession.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 5 So thy two sons, who were born to thee in the land of Egypt before I came hither to thee, shall be mine: Ephraim and Manasses shall be reputed to me as Ruben and Simeon.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 6 But the rest whom thou shalt have after them, shall be thine, and shall be called by the name of their brethren in their possessions.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 7 For, when I came out of Mesopotamia, Rachel died from me in the land of Chanaan in the very journey, and it was spring time: and I was going to Ephrata, and I buried her near the way of Ephrata, which by another name is called Bethlehem.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 8 Then seeing his sons, he said to him: Who are these?
-Genesis Ge 1 48 9 He answered: They are my sons, whom God hath given me in this place. And he said: Bring them to me, that I may bless them.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 10 For Israel’s eyes were dim by reason of his great age, and he could not see clearly. And when they were brought to him, he kissed and embraced them,
-Genesis Ge 1 48 11 And said to his son: I am not deprived of seeing thee; moreover God hath shewn me thy seed.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 12 And when Joseph had taken them from his father’s lap, he bowed down with his face to the ground.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 13 And he set Ephraim on his right hand, that is, towards the left hand of Israel; but Manasses on his left hand, to wit, towards his father’s right hand, and brought them near to him.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 14 But he, stretching forth his right hand, put it upon the head of Ephraim, the younger brother; and the left upon the head of Manasses, who was the elder, changing his hands.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 15 And Jacob blessed the sons of Joseph, and said: God, in whose sight my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked, God that feedeth me from my youth until this day:
-Genesis Ge 1 48 16 The angel that delivereth me from all evils, bless these boys: and let my name be called upon them, and the names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and may they grow into a multitude upon the earth.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 17 And Joseph seeing that his father had put his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, was much displeased: and taking his father’s hand, he tried to lift it from Ephraim’s head, and to remove it to the head of Manasses.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 18 And he said to his father: It should not be so, my father; for this is the firstborn, put thy right hand upon his head.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 19 But he refusing, said: I know, my son, I know: and this also shall become a people, and shall be multiplied; but his younger brother shall be greater than he; and his seed shall grow into nations.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 20 And he blessed them at that time, saying: In thee shall Israel be blessed, and it shall be said: God do to thee as to Ephraim, and as to Manasses. And he set Ephraim before Manasses.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 21 And he said to Joseph, his son: Behold I die, and God will be with you, and will bring you back into the land of your fathers.
-Genesis Ge 1 48 22 I give thee a portion above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorrhite with my sword and bow.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 1 And Jacob called his sons, and said to them: Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you the things that shall befall you in the last days.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, O ye sons of Jacob, hearken to Israel, your father:
-Genesis Ge 1 49 3 Ruben, my firstborn, thou art my strength, and the beginning of my sorrow; excelling in gifts, greater in command.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 4 Thou art poured out as water, grow thou not; because thou wentest up to thy father’s bed, and didst defile his couch.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 5 Simeon and Levi brethren: vessels of iniquity waging war.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 6 Let not my soul go into their counsel, nor my glory be in their assembly: because in their fury they slew a man, and in their self-will they undermined a wall.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 7 Cursed be their fury, because it was stubborn: and their wrath, because it was cruel: I will divide them in Jacob, and will scatter them in Israel.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 8 Juda, thee shall thy brethren praise: thy hand shall be on the necks of thy enemies; the sons of thy father shall bow down to thee.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 9 Juda is a lion’s whelp: to the prey, my son, thou art gone up: resting thou hast couched as a lion, and as a lioness, who shall rouse him?
-Genesis Ge 1 49 10 The sceptre shall not be taken away from Juda, nor a ruler from his thigh, till he come that is to be sent, and he shall be the expectation of nations.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 11 Tying his foal to the vineyard, and his ass, O my son, to the vine. He shall wash his robe in wine, and his garment in the blood of the grape.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 12 His eyes are more beautiful than wine, and his teeth whiter than milk.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 13 Zabulon shall dwell on the seashore, and in the road of ships, reaching as far as Sidon.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 14 Issachar shall be a strong ass, lying down between the borders.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 15 He saw rest that it was good: and the land that it was excellent: and he bowed his shoulder to carry, and became a servant under tribute.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 16 Dan shall judge his people like another tribe in Israel.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 17 Let Dan be a snake in the way, a serpent in the path, that biteth the horse’s heels, that his rider may fall backward.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 18 I will look for thy salvation, O Lord.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 19 Gad, being girded, shall fight before him: and he himself shall be girded backward.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 20 Aser, his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield dainties to kings.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 21 Nephthali, a hart let loose, and giving words of beauty.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 22 Joseph is a growing son, a growing son and comely to behold: the daughters run to and fro upon the wall;
-Genesis Ge 1 49 23 But they that held darts, provoked him, and quarrelled with him, and envied him.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 24 His bow rested upon the strong, and the bands of his arms and his hands were loosed, by the hands of the mighty one of Jacob: thence he came forth a pastor, the stone of Israel.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 25 The God of thy father shall be thy helper, and the Almighty shall bless thee with the blessings of heaven above, with the blessings of the deep that lieth beneath, with the blessings of the breasts and of the womb.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 26 The blessings of thy father are strengthened with the blessings of his fathers: until the desire of the everlasting hills should come: may they be upon the head of Joseph, and upon the crown of the Nazarite among his brethren.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 27 Benjamin a ravenous wolf, in the morning shall eat the prey, and in the evening shall divide the spoil.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 28 All these are the twelve tribes of Israel: these things their father spoke to them, and he blessed every one with their proper blessings.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 29 And he charged them, saying: I am now going to be gathered to my people: bury me with my fathers in the double cave, which is in the field of Ephron the Hethite,
-Genesis Ge 1 49 30 Over against Mambre, in the land of Chanaan, which Abraham bought together with the field, of Ephron the Hethite, for a possession to bury in.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 31 There they buried him, and Sara his wife: there was Isaac buried with Rebecca, his wife: there also Lia doth lie buried.
-Genesis Ge 1 49 32 And when he had ended the commandments, wherewith he instructed his sons, he drew up his feet upon the bed, and died: and he was gathered to his people.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 1 And when Joseph saw this, he fell upon his father’s face, weeping and kissing him.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 2 And he commanded his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 3 And while they were fulfilling his commands, there passed forty days: for this was the manner with bodies that were embalmed, and Egypt mourned for him seventy days.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 4 And the time of the mourning being expired, Joseph spoke to the family of Pharao: If I have found favour in your sight, speak in the ears of Pharao:
-Genesis Ge 1 50 5 For my father made me swear to him, saying: Behold I die; thou shalt bury me in my sepulchre which I have digged for myself in the land of Chanaan. So I will go up and bury my father, and return.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 6 And Pharao said to him: Go up and bury thy father according as he made thee swear.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 7 So he went up, and there went with him all the ancients of Pharao’s house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 8 And the house of Joseph with his brethren, except their children, and their flocks and herds, which they left in the land of Gessen.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 9 He had also in his train chariots and horsemen: and it was a great company.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 10 And they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is situated beyond the Jordan: where celebrating the exequies with a great and vehement lamentation, they spent full seven days.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 11 And when the inhabitants of Chanaan saw this, they said: This is a great mourning to the Egyptians. And therefore the name of that place was called, The mourning of Egypt.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 12 So the sons of Jacob did as he had commanded them.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 13 And carrying him into the land of Chanaan, they buried him in the double cave, which Abraham had bought together with the field for a possession of a burying place, of Ephron, the Hethite, over against Mambre.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 14 And Joseph returned into Egypt with his brethren, and all that were in his company, after he had buried his father.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 15 Now he being dead, his brethren were afraid, and talked one with another: Lest perhaps he should remember the wrong he suffered, and requite us all the evil that we did to him.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 16 And they sent a message to him, saying: Thy father commanded us before he died,
-Genesis Ge 1 50 17 That we should say thus much to thee from him: I beseech thee to forget the wickedness of thy brethren, and the sin and malice they practised against thee: we also pray thee, to forgive the servants of the God of thy father this wickedness. And when Joseph heard this, he wept.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 18 And his brethren came to him; and worshipping prostrate on the ground, they said: We are thy servants.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 19 And he answered them: Fear not: can we resist the will of God?
-Genesis Ge 1 50 20 You thought evil against me: but God turned it into good, that he might exalt me, as at present you see, and might save many people.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 21 Fear not: I will feed you and your children. And he comforted them, and spoke gently and mildly.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 22 And he dwelt in Egypt with all his father’s house; and lived a hundred and ten years. And he saw the children of Ephraim to the third generation. The children also of Machir, the sons of Manasses, were born on Joseph’s knees.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 23 After which he told his brethren: God will visit you after my death, and will make you go up out of this land, to the land which he swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
-Genesis Ge 1 50 24 And he made them swear to him, saying: God will visit you, carry my bones with you out of this place:
-Genesis Ge 1 50 25 And he died, being a hundred and ten years old. And being embalmed, he was laid in a coffin in Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 1 In the beginning God created heaven, and earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 2 And the earth was void and empty, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God moved over the waters.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 3 And God said: Be light made. And light was made.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 4 And God saw the light that it was good; and he divided the light from the darkness.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 5 And he called the light Day, and the darkness Night; and there was evening and morning one day.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 6 And God said: Let there be a firmament made amidst the waters: and let it divide the waters from the waters.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 7 And God made a firmament, and divided the waters that were under the firmament, from those that were above the firmament, and it was so.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 8 And God called the firmament, Heaven; and the evening and morning were the second day.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 9 God also said; Let the waters that are under the heaven, be gathered together into one place: and let the dry land appear. And it was so done.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 10 And God called the dry land, Earth; and the gathering together of the waters, he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 11 And he said: let the earth bring forth green herb, and such as may seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after its kind, which may have seed in itself upon the earth. And it was so done.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 12 And the earth brought forth the green herb, and such as yieldeth seed according to its kind, and the tree that beareth fruit, having seed each one according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 14 And God said: Let there be lights made in the firmament of heaven, to divide the day and the night, and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years:
+Genesis Gen 1 1 15 To shine in the firmament of heaven, and to give light upon the earth, and it was so done.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 16 And God made two great lights: a greater light to rule the day; and a lesser light to rule the night: and the stars.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 17 And he set them in the firmament of heaven to shine upon the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 18 And to rule the day and the night, and to divide the light and the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 19 And the evening and morning were the fourth day.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 20 God also said: let the waters bring forth the creeping creature having life, and the fowl that may fly over the earth under the firmament of heaven.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 21 And God created the great whales, and every living and moving creature, which the waters brought forth, according to their kinds, and every winged fowl according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 22 And he blessed them, saying: Increase and multiply, and fill the waters of the sea: and let the birds be multiplied upon the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 23 And the evening and morning were the fifth day.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 24 And God said: Let the earth bring forth the living creature in its kind, cattle and creeping things, and beasts of the earth, according to their kinds. And it was so done.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 25 And God made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds, and cattle, and every thing that creepeth on the earth after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 26 And he said: Let us make man to our image and likeness: and let him have dominion over the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the air, and the beasts, and the whole earth, and every creeping creature that moveth upon the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 27 And God created man to his own image: to the image of God he created him: male and female he created them.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 28 And God blessed them, saying: Increase and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule over the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the air, and all living creatures that move upon the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 29 And God said: Behold I have given you every herb bearing seed upon the earth, and all trees that have in themselves seed of their own kind, to be your meat:
+Genesis Gen 1 1 30 And to all beasts of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to all that move upon the earth, and wherein there is life, that they may have to feed upon. And it was so done.
+Genesis Gen 1 1 31 And God saw all the things that he had made, and they were very good. And the evening and morning were the sixth day.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 1 So the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the furniture of them.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 2 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 done.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 3 And he blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 4 These are the generations of the heaven and the earth, when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the heaven and the earth:
+Genesis Gen 1 2 5 And every plant of the field before it sprung up in the earth, and every herb of the ground before it grew: for the Lord God had not rained upon the earth; and there was not a man to till the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 6 But a spring rose out of the earth, watering all the surface of the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 7 And the Lord God formed man of the slime of the earth: and breathed into his face the breath of life, and man became a living soul.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 8 And the Lord God had planted a paradise of pleasure from the beginning: wherein he placed man whom he had formed.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 9 And the Lord God brought forth of the ground all manner of trees, fair to behold, and pleasant to eat of: the tree of life also in the midst of paradise: and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 10 And a river went out of the place of pleasure to water paradise, which from thence is divided into four heads.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 11 The name of the one is Phison: that is it which compasseth all the land of Hevilath, where gold groweth.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 12 And the gold of that land is very good: there is found bdellium, and the onyx stone.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 13 And the name of the second river is Gehon: the same is it that compasseth all the land of Ethiopia.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 14 And the name of the third river is Tigris: the same passeth along by the Assyrians. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 15 And the Lord God took man, and put him into the paradise of pleasure, to dress it, and to keep it.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 16 And he commanded him, saying: Of every tree of paradise thou shalt eat:
+Genesis Gen 1 2 17 But of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat. For in what day soever thou shalt eat of it, thou shalt die the death.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 18 And the Lord God said: It is not good for man to be alone: let us make him a help like unto himself.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 19 And the Lord God having formed out of the ground all the beasts of the earth, and all the fowls of the air, brought them to Adam to see what he would call them: for whatsoever Adam called any living creature the same is its name.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 20 And Adam called all the beasts by their names, and all the fowls of the air, and all the cattle of the field: but for Adam there was not found a helper like himself.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 21 Then the Lord God cast a deep sleep upon Adam: and when he was fast asleep, he took one of his ribs, and filled up flesh for it.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 22 And the Lord God built the rib which he took from Adam into a woman: and brought her to Adam.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 23 And Adam said: This now is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called woman, because she was taken out of man.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 24 Wherefore a man shall leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they shall be two in one flesh.
+Genesis Gen 1 2 25 And they were both naked: to wit, Adam and his wife: and were not ashamed.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 1 Now the serpent was more subtle than any of the beasts of the earth which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman: Why hath God commanded you, that you should not eat of every tree of paradise?
+Genesis Gen 1 3 2 And the woman answered him, saying: Of the fruit of the trees that are in paradise we do eat:
+Genesis Gen 1 3 3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of paradise, God hath commanded us that we should not eat; and that we should not touch it, lest perhaps we die.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 4 And the serpent said to the woman: No, you shall not die the death.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 5 For God doth know that in what day soever you shall eat thereof, your eyes shall be opened: and you shall be as Gods, knowing good and evil.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 6 And the woman saw that the tree was good to eat, and fair to the eyes, and delightful to behold: and she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave to her husband, who did eat.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 7 And the eyes of them both were opened: and when they perceived themselves to be naked, they sewed together fig leaves, and made themselves aprons.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 8 And when they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in paradise at the afternoon air, Adam and his wife hid themselves from the face of the Lord God, amidst the trees of paradise.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 9 And the Lord God called Adam, and said to him: Where art thou?
+Genesis Gen 1 3 10 And he said: I heard thy voice in paradise; and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 11 And he said to him: And who hath told thee that thou wast naked, but that thou hast eaten of the tree whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldst not eat?
+Genesis Gen 1 3 12 And Adam said: The woman, whom thou gavest me to be my companion, gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 13 And the Lord God said to the woman: Why hast thou done this? And she answered: The serpent deceived me, and I did eat.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 14 And the Lord God said to the serpent: Because thou hast done this thing, thou art cursed among all cattle, and beasts of the earth: upon thy breast shalt thou go, and earth shalt thou eat all the days of thy life.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 15 I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 16 To the woman also he said: I will multiply thy sorrows, and thy conceptions: in sorrow shalt thou bring forth children, and thou shalt be under thy husband’s power, and he shall have dominion over thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 17 And to Adam he said: Because thou hast hearkened to the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee, that thou shouldst not eat, cursed is the earth in thy work: with labour and toil shalt thou eat thereof all the days of thy life.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 18 Thorns and thistles shall it bring forth to thee, and thou shalt eat the herbs of the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread till thou return to the earth out of which thou wast taken: for dust thou art, and into dust thou shalt return.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 20 And Adam called the name of his wife Eve: because she was the mother of all the living.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 21 And the Lord God made for Adam and his wife garments of skins, and clothed them.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 22 And he said: Behold Adam is become as one of us, knowing good and evil: now therefore lest perhaps he put forth his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 23 And the Lord God sent him out of the paradise of pleasure, to till the earth from which he was taken.
+Genesis Gen 1 3 24 And he cast out Adam: and placed before the paradise of pleasure Cherubims, and a flaming sword, turning every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 1 And Adam knew Eve his wife; who conceived and brought forth Cain, saying: I have gotten a man through God.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 2 And again she brought forth his brother Abel. And Abel was a shepherd, and Cain a husbandman.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 3 And it came to pass after many days, that Cain offered, of the fruits of the earth, gifts to the Lord.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 4 Abel also offered of the firstlings of his flock, and of their fat: and the Lord had respect to Abel, and to his offerings.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 5 But to Cain and his offerings he had no respect: and Cain was exceeding angry, and his countenance fell.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 6 And the Lord said to him: Why art thou angry? and why is thy countenance fallen?
+Genesis Gen 1 4 7 If thou do well, shalt thou not receive? but if ill, shall not sin forthwith be present at the door? but the lust thereof shall be under thee, and thou shalt have dominion over it.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 8 And Cain said to Abel his brother: Let us go forth abroad. And when they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel, and slew him.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 9 And the Lord said to Cain: Where is thy brother Abel? And he answered: I know not: am I my brother’s keeper?
+Genesis Gen 1 4 10 And he said to him: What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth to me from the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 11 Now therefore cursed shalt thou be upon the earth, which hath opened her mouth and received the blood of thy brother at thy hand.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 12 When thou shalt till it, it shall not yield to thee its fruit: a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be upon the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 13 And Cain said to the Lord: My iniquity is greater than that I may deserve pardon.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 14 Behold thou dost cast me out this day from the face of the earth, and from thy face I shall be hid, and I shall be a vagabond and a fugitive on the earth: every one therefore that findeth me, shall kill me.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 15 And the Lord said to him: No, it shall not so be: but whosoever shall kill Cain, shall be punished sevenfold. And the Lord set a mark upon Cain, that whosoever found him should not kill him.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 16 And Cain went out from the face of the Lord, and dwelt as a fugitive on the earth at the east side of Eden.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 17 And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived, and brought forth Henoch: and he built a city, and called the name thereof by the name of his son Henoch.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 18 And Henoch begot Irad, and Irad begot Maviael, and Maviael begot Mathusael, and Mathusael begot Lamech,
+Genesis Gen 1 4 19 Who took two wives: the name of the one was Ada, and the name of the other Sella.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 20 And Ada brought forth Jabel: who was the father of such as dwell in tents, and of herdsmen.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 21 And his brother’s name was Jubal: he was the father of them that play upon the harp and the organs.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 22 Sella also brought forth Tubalcain, who was a hammerer and artificer in every work of brass and iron. And the sister of Tubalcain was Noema.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 23 And Lamech said to his wives Ada and Sella: Hear my voice, ye wives of Lamech, hearken to my speech: for I have slain a man to the wounding of myself, and a stripling to my own bruising.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 24 Sevenfold vengeance shall be taken for Cain: but for Lamech seventy times sevenfold.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 25 Adam also knew his wife again: and she brought forth a son, and called his name Seth, saying: God hath given me another seed for Abel, whom Cain slew.
+Genesis Gen 1 4 26 But to Seth also was born a son, whom he called Enos: this man began to call upon the name of the Lord.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 1 This is the book of the generation of Adam. In the day that God created man, he made him to the likeness of God.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 2 He created them male and female; and blessed them: and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 3 And Adam lived a hundred and thirty years, and begot a son to his own image and likeness, and called his name Seth.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 4 And the days of Adam, after he begot Seth, were eight hundred years: and he begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 5 And all the time that Adam lived, came to nine hundred and thirty years, and he died.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 6 Seth also lived a hundred and five years, and begot Enos.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 7 And Seth lived after he begot Enos, eight hundred and seven years, and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 8 And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years, and he died.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 9 And Enos lived ninety years, and begot Cainan.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 10 After whose birth he lived eight hundred and fifteen years, and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 11 And all the days of Enos were nine hundred and five years, and he died.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 12 And Cainan lived seventy years, and begot Malaleel.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 13 And Cainan lived after he begot Malaleel, eight hundred and forty years, and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 14 And all the days of Cainan were nine hundred and ten years, and he died.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 15 And Malaleel lived sixty-five years and begot Jared.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 16 And Malaleel lived after he begot Jared, eight hundred and thirty years, and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 17 And all the days of Malaleel were eight hundred and ninety-five years, and he died.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 18 And Jared lived a hundred and sixty-two years, and begot Henoch.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 19 And Jared lived after he begot Henoch, eight hundred years, and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 20 And all the days of Jared were nine hundred and sixty-two years, and he died.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 21 And Henoch lived sixty-five years, and begot Mathusala.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 22 And Henoch walked with God: and lived after he begot Mathusala, three hundred years, and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 23 And all the days of Henoch were three hundred and sixty-five years.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 24 And he walked with God, and was seen no more: because God took him.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 25 And Mathusala lived a hundred and eighty-seven years, and begot Lamech.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 26 And Mathlusala lived after he begot Lamech, seven hundred and eighty-two years, and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 27 And all the days of Mathusala were nine hundred and sixty-nine years, and he died.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 28 And Lamech lived a hundred and eighty-two years, and begot a son.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 29 And he called his name Noe, saying: This same shall comfort us from the works and labours of our hands on the earth, which the Lord hath cursed.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 30 And Lamech lived after he begot Noe, five hundred and ninety-five years, and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 5 31 And all the days of Lamech came to seven hundred and seventy-seven years, and he died. And Noe, when he was five hundred years old, begot Sem, Cham, and Japheth.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 1 And after that men began to be multiplied upon the earth, and daughters were born to them,
+Genesis Gen 1 6 2 The sons of God seeing the daughters of men, that they were fair, took to themselves wives of all which they chose.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 3 And God said: My spirit shall not remain in man for ever, because he is flesh, and his days shall be a hundred and twenty years.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 4 Now giants were upon the earth in those days. For after the sons of God went in to the daughters of men, and they brought forth children, these are the mighty men of old, men of renown.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 5 And God seeing that the wickedness of men was great on the earth, and that all the thought of their heart was bent upon evil at all times,
+Genesis Gen 1 6 6 It repented him that he had made man on the earth. And being touched inwardly with sorrow of heart,
+Genesis Gen 1 6 7 He said: I will destroy man, whom I have created, from the face of the earth, from man even to beasts, from the creeping thing even to the fowls of the air, for it repenteth me that I have made them.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 8 But Noe found grace before the Lord.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 9 These are the generations of Noe: Noe was a just and perfect man in his generations, he walked with God.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 10 And he begot three sons, Sem, Cham, and Japheth.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 11 And the earth was corrupted before God, and was filled with iniquity.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 12 And when God had seen that the earth was corrupted (for all flesh had corrupted its way upon the earth),
+Genesis Gen 1 6 13 He said to Noe: The end of all flesh is come before me, the earth is filled with iniquity through them, and I will destroy them with the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 14 Make thee an ark of timber planks: thou shalt make little rooms in the ark, and thou shalt pitch it within and without.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 15 And thus shalt thou make it. The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits: the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 16 Thou shalt make a window in the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish the top of it: and the door of the ark thou shalt set in the side: with lower, middle chambers, and third stories shalt thou make it.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 17 Behold, I will bring the waters of a great flood upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life under heaven. All things that are in the earth shall be consumed.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 18 And I will establish my covenant with thee, and thou shalt enter into the ark, thou and thy sons, and thy wife, and the wives of thy sons with thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 19 And of every living creature of all flesh, thou shalt bring two of a sort into the ark, that they may live with thee: of the male sex, and the female.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 20 Of fowls according to their kind, and of beasts in their kind, and of every thing that creepeth on the earth according to its kind: two of every sort shall go in with thee, that they may live.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 21 Thou shalt take unto thee of all food that may be eaten, and thou shalt lay it up with thee: and it shall be food for thee and them.
+Genesis Gen 1 6 22 And Noe did all things which God commanded him.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 1 And the Lord said to him: Go in, thou and all thy house, into the ark: for thee I have seen just before me in this generation.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 2 Of all clean beasts take seven and seven, the male and the female.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 3 But of the beasts that are unclean two and two, the male and the female. Of the fowls also of the air seven and seven, the male and the female: that seed may be saved upon the face of the whole earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 4 For yet a while, and after seven days, I will rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights: and I will destroy every substance that I have made, from the face of the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 5 And Noe did all things which the Lord had commanded him.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 6 And he was six hundred years old, when the waters of the flood overflowed the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 7 And Noe went in and his sons, his wife and the wives of his sons with him into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 8 And of beasts clean and unclean, and of fowls, and of every thing that moveth upon the earth,
+Genesis Gen 1 7 9 Two and two went in to Noe into the ark, male and female, as the Lord had commanded Noe.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 10 And after the seven days were passed, the waters of the flood overflowed the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 11 In the six hundredth year of the life of Noe, in the second month, in the seventeenth day of the month, all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the floodgates of heaven were opened:
+Genesis Gen 1 7 12 And the rain fell upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 13 In the selfsame day Noe, and Sem, and Cham, and Japheth, his sons: his wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, went into the ark.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 14 They and every beast according to its kind, and all the cattle in their kind, and every thing that moveth upon the earth, according to its kind, and every fowl according to its kind, all birds, and all that fly,
+Genesis Gen 1 7 15 Went in to Noe into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein was the breath of life.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the Lord shut him in on the outside.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 17 And the flood was forty days upon the earth: and the waters increased, and lifted up the ark on high from the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 18 For they overflowed exceedingly: and filled all on the face of the earth: and the ark was carried upon the waters.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 19 And the waters prevailed beyond measure upon the earth: and all the high mountains under the whole heaven were covered.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 20 The water was fifteen cubits higher than the mountains which it covered.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 21 And all flesh was destroyed that moved upon the earth, both of fowl and of cattle, and of beasts, and of all creeping things that creep upon the earth: and all men.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 22 And all things wherein there is the breath of life on the earth, died.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 23 And he destroyed all the substance that was upon the earth, from man even to beast, and the creeping things and fowls of the air: and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noe only remained, and they that were with him in the ark.
+Genesis Gen 1 7 24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth a hundred and fifty days.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 1 And God remembered Noe, and all the living creatures, and all the cattle which were with him in the ark, and brought a wind upon the earth, and the waters were abated:
+Genesis Gen 1 8 2 The fountains also of the deep, and the floodgates of heaven, were shut up, and the rain from heaven was restrained.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 3 And the waters returned from off the earth going and coming: and they began to be abated after a hundred and fifty days.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, the seven and twentieth day of the month, upon the mountains of Armenia.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 5 And the waters were going and decreasing until the tenth month: for in the tenth month, the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains appeared.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 6 And after that forty days were passed, Noe opening the window of the ark, which he had made, sent forth a raven:
+Genesis Gen 1 8 7 Which went forth and did not return, till the waters were dried up upon the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 8 He sent forth also a dove after him, to see if the waters had now ceased upon the face of the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 9 But she not finding where her foot might rest, returned to him into the ark: for the waters were upon the whole earth: and he put forth his hand, and caught her, and brought her into the ark.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 10 And having waited yet seven other days, he again sent forth the dove out of the ark.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 11 And she came to him in the evening carrying a bough of an olive tree, with green leaves, in her mouth. Noe therefore understood that the waters were ceased upon the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 12 And he stayed yet other seven days: and he sent forth the dove, which returned not any more unto him.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 13 Therefore in the six hundredth and first year, the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were lessened upon the earth, and Noe opening the covering of the ark, looked, and saw that the face of the earth was dried.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 14 In the second month, the seven and twentieth day of the month, the earth was dried.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 15 And God spoke to Noe, saying:
+Genesis Gen 1 8 16 Go out of the ark, thou and thy wife, thy sons and the wives of thy sons with thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 17 All living things that are with thee of all flesh, as well in fowls as in beasts, and all creeping things that creep upon the earth, bring out with thee, and go ye upon the earth: increase and multiply upon it.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 18 So Noe went out, he and his sons: his wife, and the wives of his sons with him.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 19 And all living things, and cattle, and creeping things that creep upon the earth, according to their kinds went out of the ark.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 20 And Noe built an altar unto the Lord: and taking of all cattle and fowls that were clean, offered holocausts upon the altar.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 21 And the Lord smelled a sweet savour, and said: I will no more curse the earth for the sake of man: for the imagination and thought of man’s heart are prone to evil from his youth: therefore I will no more destroy every living soul as I have done.
+Genesis Gen 1 8 22 All the days of the earth, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, night and day, shall not cease.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 1 And God blessed Noe and his sons. And he said to them: Increase, and multiply, and fill the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 2 And let the fear and dread of you be upon all the beasts of the earth, and upon all the fowls of the air, and all that move upon the earth: all the fishes of the sea are delivered into your hand.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 3 And every thing that moveth, and liveth shall be meat for you: even as the green herbs have I delivered them all to you:
+Genesis Gen 1 9 4 Saving that flesh with blood you shall not eat.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 5 For I will require the blood of your lives at the hand of every beast, and at the hand of man, at the hand of every man, and of his brother, will I require the life of man.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 6 Whosoever shall shed man’s blood, his blood shall be shed: for man was made to the image of God.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 7 But increase you and multiply, and go upon the earth and fill it.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 8 Thus also said God to Noe, and to his sons with him:
+Genesis Gen 1 9 9 Behold I will establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you:
+Genesis Gen 1 9 10 And with every living soul that is with you, as well in all birds, as in cattle and beasts of the earth, that are come forth out of the ark, and in all the beasts of the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 11 I will establish my covenant with you, and all flesh shall be no more destroyed with the waters of a flood, neither shall there be from henceforth a flood to waste the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 12 And God said: This is the sign of the covenant which I give between me and you, and to every living soul that is with you, for perpetual generations.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 13 I will set my bow in the clouds, and it shall be the sign of a covenant between me and between the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 14 And when I shall cover the sky with clouds, my bow shall appear in the clouds:
+Genesis Gen 1 9 15 And I will remember my covenant with you, and with every living soul that beareth flesh: and there shall no more be waters of a flood to destroy all flesh.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 16 And the bow shall be in the clouds, and I shall see it, and shall remember the everlasting covenant, that was made between God and every living soul of all flesh which is upon the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 17 And God said to Noe: This shall be the sign of the covenant, which I have established, between me and all flesh upon the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 18 And the sons of Noe, who came out of the ark, were Sem, Cham, and Japheth: and Cham is the father of Chanaan.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 19 These three are the sons of Noe: and from these was all mankind spread over the whole earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 20 And Noe a husbandman began to till the ground, and planted a vineyard.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 21 And drinking of the wine was made drunk, and was uncovered in his tent.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 22 Which when Cham the father of Chanaan had seen, to wit, that his father’s nakedness was uncovered, he told it to his two brethren without.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 23 But Sem and Japheth put a cloak upon their shoulders, and going backward, covered the nakedness of their father: and their faces were turned away, and they saw not their father’s nakedness.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 24 And Noe awaking from the wine, when he had learned what his younger son had done to him,
+Genesis Gen 1 9 25 He said: Cursed be Chanaan, a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 26 And he said: Blessed be the Lord God of Sem, be Chanaan his servant.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 27 May God enlarge Japheth, and may he dwell in the tents of Sem, and Chanaan be his servant.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 28 And Noe lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
+Genesis Gen 1 9 29 And all his days were in the whole nine hundred and fifty years: and he died.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 1 These are the generations of the sons of Noe: Sem, Cham, and Japheth: and unto them sons were born after the flood.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 2 The sons of Japheth: Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Thubal, and Mosoch, and Thiras.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 3 And the sons of Gomer: Ascenez and Riphath and Thogorma.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 4 And the sons of Javan: Elisa and Tharsis, Cetthim and Dodanim.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 5 By these were divided the islands of the Gentiles in their lands, every one according to his tongue and their families in their nations.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 6 And the Sons of Cham: Chus, and Mesram, and Phuth, and Chanaan.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 7 And the sons of Chus: Saba, and Hevila, and Sabatha, and Regma, and Sabatacha. The sons of Regma: Saba, and Dadan.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 8 Now Chus begot Nemrod: he began to be mighty on the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 9 And he was a stout hunter before the Lord. Hence came a proverb: Even as Nemrod the stout hunter before the Lord.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Babylon, and Arach, and Achad, and Chalanne in the land of Sennaar.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 11 Out of that land came forth Assur, and built Ninive, and the streets of the city, and Chale.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 12 Resen also between Ninive and Chale: this is the great city.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 13 And Mesraim begot Ludim, and Anamim and Laabim, Nephthuim.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 14 And Phetrusim, and Chasluim; of whom came forth the Philistines, and the Capthorim.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 15 And Chanaan begot Sidon his firstborn, the Hethite,
+Genesis Gen 1 10 16 And the Jebusite, and the Amorrhite, and the Gergesite.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 17 The Hevite and Aracite: the Sinite,
+Genesis Gen 1 10 18 And the Aradian, the Samarite, and the Hamathite: and afterwards the families of the Chanaanites were spread abroad.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 19 And the limits of Chanaan were from Sidon as one comes to Gerara even to Gaza, until thou enter Sodom and Gomorrha, and Adama, and Seboim even to Lesa.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 20 These are the children of Cham in their kindreds and tongues, and generations, and lands, and nations.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 21 Of Sem also the father of all the children of Heber, the elder brother of Japheth, sons were born.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 22 The sons of Sem: Elam and Assur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 23 The sons of Aram: Us, and Hull, and Gether; and Mes.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 24 But Arphaxad begot Sale, of whom was born Heber.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 25 And to Heber were born two sons: the name of the one was Phaleg, because in his days was the earth divided: and his brother’s name Jectan.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 26 Which Jectan begot Elmodad, and Saleph, and Asarmoth, Jare,
+Genesis Gen 1 10 27 And Aduram, and Uzal, and Decla,
+Genesis Gen 1 10 28 And Ebal, and Abimael, Saba,
+Genesis Gen 1 10 29 And Ophir, and Hevila, and Jobab. All these were the sons of Jectan.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 30 And their dwelling was from Messa as we go on as far as Sephar, a mountain in the east.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 31 These are the children of Sem according to their kindreds and tongues, and countries in their nations.
+Genesis Gen 1 10 32 These are the families of Noe, according to their people and nations. By these were the nations divided on the earth after the flood.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 1 And the earth was of one tongue, and of the same speech.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 2 And when they removed from the east, they found a plain in the land of Sennaar, and dwelt in it.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 3 And each one said to his neighbour: Come let us make brick, and bake them with fire. And they had brick instead of stones, and slime instead of mortar:
+Genesis Gen 1 11 4 And they said: Come, let us make a city and a tower, the top whereof may reach to heaven; and let us make our name famous before we be scattered abroad into all lands.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 5 And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of Adam were building.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 6 And he said: Behold, it is one people, and all have one tongue: and they have begun to do this, neither will they leave off from their designs, till they accomplish them in deed.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 7 Come ye, therefore, let us go down, and there confound their tongue, that they may not understand one another’s speech.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 8 And so the Lord scattered them from that place into all lands, and they ceased to build the city.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 9 And therefore the name thereof was called Babel, because there the language of the whole earth was confounded: and from thence the Lord scattered them abroad upon the face of all countries.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 10 These are the generations of Sem: Sem was a hundred years old when he begot Arphaxad, two years after the flood.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 11 And Sem lived after he begot Arphaxad, five hundred years, and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 12 And Arphaxad lived thirty-five years, and begot Sale.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 13 And Arphaxad lived after he begot Sale, three hundred and three years, and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 14 Sale also lived thirty years, and begot Heber.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 15 And Sale lived after he begot Heber, four hundred and three years: and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 16 And Heber lived thirty-four years, and begot Phaleg.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 17 And Heber lived after he begot Phaleg, four hundred and thirty years: and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 18 Phaleg also lived thirty years, and begot Reu.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 19 And Phaleg lived after he begot Reu, two hundred and nine years, and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 20 And Reu lived thirty-two years, and begot Sarug.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 21 And Reu lived after he begot Sarug, two hundred and seven years, and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 22 And Sarug lived thirty years, and begot Nachor.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 23 And Sarug lived after he begot Nachor, two hundred years, and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 24 And Nachor lived nine and twenty years, and begot Thare.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 25 And Nachor lived after he begot Thare, a hundred and nineteen years, and begot sons and daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 26 And Thare lived seventy years, and begot Abram, and Nachor, and Aran.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 27 And these are the generations of Thare: Thare begot Abram, Nachor, and Aran. And Aran begot Lot.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 28 And Aran died before Thare his father, in the land of his nativity in Ur of the Chaldees.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 29 And Abram and Nachor married wives: the name of Abram’s wife was Sarai: and the name of Nachor’s wife, Melcha, the daughter of Aran, father of Melcha and father of Jescha.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 30 And Sarai was barren, and had no children.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 31 And Thare took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Aran, his son’s son, and Sarai his daughter in law, the wife of Abram his son, and brought them out of Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Chanaan: and they came as far as Haran, and dwelt there.
+Genesis Gen 1 11 32 And the days of Thare were two hundred and five years, and he died in Haran.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 1 And the Lord said to Abram: Go forth out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and out of thy father’s house, and come into the land which I shall shew thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and magnify thy name, and thou shalt be blessed.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 3 I will bless them that bless thee, and curse them that curse thee, and IN THEE shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 4 So Abram went out as the Lord had commanded him, and Lot went with him: Abram was seventy-five years old when he went forth from Haran.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 5 And he took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother’s son, and all the substance which they had gathered, and the souls which they had gotten in Haran: and they went out to go into the land of Chanaan. And when they were come into it,
+Genesis Gen 1 12 6 Abram passed through the country unto the place of Sichem, as far as the noble vale: now the Chanaanite was at that time in the land.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 7 And the Lord appeared to Abram, and said to him: To thy seed will I give this land. And he built there an altar to the Lord, who had appeared to him.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 8 And passing on from thence to a mountain, that was on the east side of Bethel, he there pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east: he built there also an altar to the Lord, and called upon his name.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 9 And Abram went forward, going and proceeding on to the south.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 10 And there came a famine in the country: and Abram went down into Egypt, to sojourn there: for the famine was very grievous in the land.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 11 And when he was near to enter into Egypt, he said to Sarai his wife: I know that thou art a beautiful woman:
+Genesis Gen 1 12 12 And that when the Egyptians shall see thee, they will say: She is his wife: and they will kill me, and keep thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 13 Say, therefore, I pray thee, that thou art my sister: that I may be well used for thee, and that my soul may live for thy sake.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 14 And when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians saw the woman that she was very beautiful.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 15 And the princes told Pharao, and praised her before him: and the woman was taken into the house of Pharao.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 16 And they used Abram well for her sake. And he had sheep and oxen and he asses, and men servants, and maid servants, and she asses, and camels.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 17 But the Lord scourged Pharao and his house with most grievous stripes for Sarai, Abram’s wife.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 18 And Pharao called Abram, and said to him: What is this that thou hast done to me? Why didst thou not tell me that she was thy wife?
+Genesis Gen 1 12 19 For what cause didst thou say, she was thy sister, that I might take her to my wife? Now therefore there is thy wife, take her, and go thy way.
+Genesis Gen 1 12 20 And Pharao gave his men orders concerning Abram: and they led him away and his wife, and all that he had.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 1 And Abram went up out of Egypt, he and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him into the south.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 2 And he was very rich in possession of gold and silver.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 3 And he returned by the way, that he came, from the south to Bethel, to the place where before he had pitched his tent between Bethel and Hai,
+Genesis Gen 1 13 4 In the place of the altar which he had made before, and there he called upon the name of the Lord.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 5 But Lot also, who was with Abram, had flocks of sheep, and herds of beasts, and tents.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 6 Neither was the land able to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, and they could not dwell together.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 7 Whereupon also there arose a strife between the herdsmen of Abram and of Lot. And at that time the Chanaanite and the Pherezite dwelled in that country.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 8 Abram therefore said to Lot: Let there be no quarrel, I beseech thee, between me and thee, and between my herdsmen and thy herdsmen: for we are brethren.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 9 Behold the whole land is before thee: depart from me, I pray thee: if thou wilt go to the left hand, I will take the right: if thou choose the right hand, I will pass to the left.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 10 And Lot lifting up his eyes, saw all the country about the Jordan, which was watered throughout, before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrha, as the paradise of the Lord, and like Egypt as one comes to Segor.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 11 And Lot chose to himself the country about the Jordan, and he departed from the east: and they were separated one brother from the other.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 12 Abram dwelt in the land of Chanaan: and Lot abode in the towns, that were about the Jordan, and dwelt in Sodom.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 13 And the men of Sodom were very wicked, and sinners before the face of the Lord beyond measure.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 14 And the Lord said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him: Lift up thy eyes, and look from the place wherein thou now art, to the north and to the south, to the east and to the west.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 15 All the land which thou seest, I will give to thee, and to thy seed for ever.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 16 And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: if any man be able to number the dust of the earth, he shall be able to number thy seed also.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 17 Arise and walk through the land in the length, and the breadth thereof: for I will give it to thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 13 18 So Abram removing his tent, came, and dwelt by the vale of Mambre, which is in Hebron: and he built there an altar to the Lord.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 1 And it came to pass at that time, that Amraphel, king of Sennaar, and Arioch, king of Pontus, and Chodorlahomor, king of the Elamites, and Thadal, king of nations,
+Genesis Gen 1 14 2 Made war against Bara, king of Sodom, and against Bersa, king of Gomorrha, and against Sennaab, king of Adama, and against Semeber, king of Seboim, and against the king of Bala, which is Segor.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 3 All these came together into the woodland vale, which now is the salt sea.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 4 For they had served Chodorlahomor twelve years, and in the thirteenth year they revolted from him.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 5 And in the fourteenth year came Chodorlahomor, and the kings that were with him: and they smote the Raphaim in Astarothcarnaim, and the Zuzim with them, and the Emim in Save of Cariathaim.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 6 And the Chorreans in the mountains of Seir, even to the plains of Pharan, which is in the wilderness.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 7 And they returned, and came to the fountain of Misphat, the same is Cades: and they smote all the country of the Amalecites, and the Amorrhean that dwelt in Asasonthamar.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 8 And the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrha, and the king of Adama, and the king of Seboim, and the king of Bala, which is Segor, went out: and they set themselves against them in battle array, in the woodland vale:
+Genesis Gen 1 14 9 To wit, against Chodorlahomor king of the Elamites, and Thadal king of nations, and Amraphel king of Sennaar, and Arioch king of Pontus: four kings against five.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 10 Now the woodland vale had many pits of slime. And the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrha turned their backs, and were overthrown there: and they that remained, fled to the mountain.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 11 And they took all the substance of the Sodomites, and Gomorrhites, and all their victuals, and went their way:
+Genesis Gen 1 14 12 And Lot also, the son of Abram’s brother, who dwelt in Sodom, and his substance.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 13 And behold one, that had escaped, told Abram the Hebrew, who dwelt in the vale of Mambre the Amorrhite, the brother of Escol, and the brother of Aner: for these had made a league with Abram.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 14 Which when Abram had heard, to wit, that his brother Lot was taken, he numbered of the servants born in his house, three hundred and eighteen, well appointed: and pursued them to Dan.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 15 And dividing his company, he rushed upon them in the night, and defeated them: and pursued them as far as Hoba, which is on the left hand of Damascus.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 16 And he brought back all the substance, and Lot his brother, with his substance, the women also, and the people.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 17 And the king of Sodom went out to meet him, after he returned from the slaughter of Chodorlahomor, and of the kings that were with him in the vale of Save, which is the king’s vale.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 18 But Melchisedech, the king of Salem, bringing forth bread and wine, for he was the priest of the most high God,
+Genesis Gen 1 14 19 Blessed him, and said: Blessed be Abram by the most high God, who created heaven and earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 20 And blessed be the most high God, by whose protection, the enemies are in thy hands. And he gave him the tithes of all.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 21 And the king of Sodom said to Abram: Give me the persons, and the rest take to thyself.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 22 And he answered him: I lift up my hand to the Lord God the most high, the possessor of heaven and earth,
+Genesis Gen 1 14 23 That from the very woof thread unto the shoe latchet, I will not take of any things that are thine, lest thou say: I have enriched Abram.
+Genesis Gen 1 14 24 Except such things as the young men have eaten, and the shares of the men that came with me, Aner, Escol, and Mambre: these shall take their shares.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 1 Now when these things were done, the word of the Lord came to Abram by a vision, saying: Fear not, Abram, I am thy protector, and thy reward exceeding great.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 2 And Abram said: Lord God, what wilt thou give me? I shall go without children: and the son of the steward of my house is this Damascus Eliezer.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 3 And Abram added: But to me thou hast not given seed: and lo my servant born in my house, shall be my heir.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 4 And immediately the word of the Lord came to him, saying : He shall not be thy heir: but he that shall come out of thy bowels, him shalt thou have for thy heir.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 5 And he brought him forth abroad, and said to him: Look up to heaven and number the stars if thou canst. And he said to him: So shall thy seed be.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 6 Abram believed God, and it was reputed to him unto justice.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 7 And he said to him: I am the Lord who brought thee out from Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land, and that thou mightest possess it.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 8 But he said: Lord God, whereby may I know that I shall possess it?
+Genesis Gen 1 15 9 And the Lord answered, and said: Take me a cow of three years old, and a she-goat of three years. and a ram of three years, a turtle also, and a pigeon.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 10 And he took all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid the two pieces of each one against the other: but the birds he divided not.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 11 And the fowls came down upon the carcasses, and Abram drove them away.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 12 And when the sun was setting, a deep sleep fell upon Abram, and a great and darksome horror seized upon him.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 13 And it was said unto him: Know thou beforehand that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land not their own, and they shall bring them under bondage, and afflict them four hundred years.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 14 But I will judge the nation which they shall serve, and after this they shall come out with great substance.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 15 And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace, and be buried in a good old age.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 16 But in the fourth generation they shall return hither: for as yet the iniquities of the Amorrhites are not at the full until this present time.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 17 And when the sun was set, there arose a dark mist, and there appeared a smoking furnace, and a lamp of fire passing between those divisions.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 18 That day God made a covenant with Abram, saying: To thy seed will I give this land, from the river to Egypt even to the great river Euphrates.
+Genesis Gen 1 15 19 The Cineans, and Cenezites, the Cedmonites,
+Genesis Gen 1 15 20 And the Hethites, and the Pherezites, the Raphaim also,
+Genesis Gen 1 15 21 And the Amorrhites, and the Chanaanites, and the Gergesites, and the Jebusites.
+Genesis Gen 1 16 1 Now Sarai, the wife of Abram, had brought forth no children: but having a handmaid, an Egyptian, named Agar,
+Genesis Gen 1 16 2 She said to her husband: Behold, the Lord hath restrained me from bearing: go in unto my handmaid, it may be I may have children of her at least. And when he agreed to her request,
+Genesis Gen 1 16 3 She took Agar the Egyptian her handmaid, ten years after they first dwelt in the land of Chanaan, and gave her to her husband to wife.
+Genesis Gen 1 16 4 And he went in to her. But she perceiving that she was with child, despised her mistress.
+Genesis Gen 1 16 5 And Sarai said to Abram: Thou dost unjustly with me: I gave my handmaid into thy bosom, and she perceiving herself to be with child, despiseth me. The Lord judge between me and thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 16 6 And Abram made answer, and said to her: Behold thy handmaid is in thy own hand, use her as it pleaseth thee. And when Sarai afflicted her, she ran away.
+Genesis Gen 1 16 7 And the angel of the Lord having found her, by a fountain of water in the wilderness, which is in the way to Sur in the desert,
+Genesis Gen 1 16 8 He said to her: Agar, handmaid of Sarai, whence comest thou? and whither goest thou? And she answered: I flee from the face of Sarai, my mistress.
+Genesis Gen 1 16 9 And the angel of the Lord said to her: Return to thy mistress, and humble thyself under her hand.
+Genesis Gen 1 16 10 And again he said: I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, and it shall not be numbered for multitude.
+Genesis Gen 1 16 11 And again: Behold, said he, thou art with child, and thou shalt bring forth a son: and thou shalt call his name Ismael, because the Lord hath heard thy affliction.
+Genesis Gen 1 16 12 He shall be a wild man: his hand will be against all men, and all men’s hands against him: and he shall pitch his tents over against all his brethren.
+Genesis Gen 1 16 13 And she called the name of the Lord that spoke unto her: Thou the God who hast seen me. For she said: Verily, here have I seen the hinder parts of him that seeth me.
+Genesis Gen 1 16 14 Therefore she called that well, the well of him that liveth and seeth me. The same is between Cades and Barad.
+Genesis Gen 1 16 15 And Agar brought forth a son to Abram: who called his name Ismael.
+Genesis Gen 1 16 16 Abram was four score and six years old when Agar brought him forth Ismael.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 1 And after he began to be ninety and nine years old, the Lord appeared to him: and said unto him: I am the Almighty God: walk before me, and be perfect.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 2 And I will make my covenant between me and thee: and I will multiply thee exceedingly.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 3 Abram fell flat on his face.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 4 And God said to him: I am, and my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 5 Neither shall thy name be called any more Abram: but thou shalt be called Abraham: because I have made thee a father of many nations.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 6 And I will make thee increase exceedingly, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee, and between thy seed after thee in their generations, by a perpetual covenant: to be a God to thee, and to thy seed after thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 8 And I will give to thee, and to thy seed, the land of thy sojournment, all the land of Chanaan, for a perpetual possession, and I will be their God.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 9 Again God said to Abraham: And thou therefore shalt keep my covenant, and thy seed after thee in their generations.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 10 This is my covenant which you shall observe between me and you, and thy seed after thee: All the male-kind of you shall be circumcised.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 11 And you shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, that it may be for a sign of the covenant between me and you.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 12 An infant of eight days old shall be circumcised among you, every manchild in your generations: he that is born in the house, as well as the bought servant, shall be circumcised, and whosoever is not of your stock:
+Genesis Gen 1 17 13 And my covenant shall be in your flesh for a perpetual covenant.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 14 The male whose flesh of his foreskin shall not be circumcised, that soul shall be destroyed out of his people: because he hath broken my covenant.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 15 God said also to Abraham: Sarai thy wife thou shalt not call Sarai, but Sara.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 16 And I will bless her, and of her I will give thee a son, whom I will bless, and he shall become nations, and kings of people shall spring from him.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 17 Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, saying in his heart: Shall a son, thinkest thou, be born to him that is a hundred years old? and shall Sara that is ninety years old bring forth?
+Genesis Gen 1 17 18 And he said to God: O that Ismael may live before thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 19 And God said to Abraham: Sara thy wife shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name Isaac, and I will establish my covenant with him for a perpetual covenant, and with his seed after him.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 20 And as for Ismael I have also heard thee. Behold, I will bless him, and increase, and multiply him exceedingly: he shall beget twelve chiefs, and I will make him a great nation.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 21 But my covenant I will establish with Isaac, whom Sara shall bring forth to thee at this time in the next year.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 22 And when he had left off speaking with him, God went up from Abraham.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 23 And Abraham took Ismael his son, and all that were born in his house: and all whom he had bought, every male among the men of his house: and he circumcised the flesh of their foreskin forthwith the very same day, as God had commanded him.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 24 Abraham was ninety and nine years old, when he circumcised the flesh of his foreskin.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 25 And Ismael his son was full thirteen years old at the time of his circumcision.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 26 The self-same day was Abraham circumcised and Ismael his son.
+Genesis Gen 1 17 27 And all the men of his house, as well they that were born in his house, as the bought servants and strangers, were circumcised with him.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 1 And the Lord appeared to him in the vale of Mambre as he was sitting at the door of his tent, in the very heat of the day.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 2 And when he had lifted up his eyes, there appeared to him three men standing near to him: and as soon as he saw them, he ran to meet them from the door of his tent, and adored down to the ground.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 3 And he said: Lord, if I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away from thy servant.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 4 But I will fetch a little water, and wash ye your feet, and rest ye under the tree.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 5 And I will set a morsel of bread, and strengthen ye your heart, afterwards you shall pass on: for therefore are you come aside to your servant. And they said: Do as thou hast spoken.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 6 Abraham made haste into the tent to Sara, and said to her: Make haste, temper together three measures of flour, and make cakes upon the hearth.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 7 And he himself ran to the herd, and took from thence a calf, very tender and very good, and gave it to a young man, who made haste and boiled it.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 8 He took also butter and milk, and the calf which he had boiled, and set before them: but he stood by them under the tree.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 9 And when they had eaten, they said to him: Where is Sara thy wife? He answered: Lo she is in the tent.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 10 And he said to him: I will return and come to thee at this time, life accompanying, and Sara, thy wife, shall have a son. Which when Sara heard, she laughed behind the door of the tent.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 11 Now they were both old, and far advanced in years, and it had ceased to be with Sara after the manner of women.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 12 And she laughed secretly, saying: After I am grown old, and my lord is an old man, shall I give myself to pleasure?
+Genesis Gen 1 18 13 And the Lord said to Abraham: Why did Sara laugh, saying: Shall I, who am an old woman, bear a child indeed?
+Genesis Gen 1 18 14 Is there any thing hard to God? According to appointment I will return to thee at this same time, life accompanying, and Sara shall have a son.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 15 Sara denied, saying: I did not laugh: for she was afraid. But the Lord said: Nay; but thou didst laugh.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 16 And when the men rose up from thence, they turned their eyes towards Sodom: and Abraham walked with them, bringing them on the way.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 17 And the Lord said: Can I hide from Abraham what I am about to do:
+Genesis Gen 1 18 18 Seeing he shall become a great and mighty nation, and in him all the nations of the earth shall be blessed?
+Genesis Gen 1 18 19 For I know that he will command his children, and his household after him, to keep the way of the Lord, and do judgment and justice: that for Abraham’s sake, the Lord may bring to effect all the things he hath spoken unto him.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 20 And the Lord said: The cry of Sodom and Gomorrha is multiplied, and their sin is become exceedingly grievous.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 21 I will go down and see whether they have done according to the cry that is come to me; or whether it be not so, that I may know.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 22 And they turned themselves from thence, and went their way to Sodom: but Abraham as yet stood before the Lord.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 23 And drawing nigh, he said: Wilt thou destroy the just with the wicked?
+Genesis Gen 1 18 24 If there be fifty just men in the city, shall they perish withal? and wilt thou not spare that place for the sake of the fifty just, if they be therein?
+Genesis Gen 1 18 25 Far be it from thee to do this thing, and to slay the just with the wicked, and for the just to be in like case as the wicked; this is not beseeming thee: thou who judgest all the earth, wilt not make this judgment.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 26 And the Lord said to him: If I find in Sodom fifty just within the city, I will spare the whole place for their sake.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 27 And Abraham answered, and said: Seeing I have once begun, I will speak to my Lord, whereas I am dust and ashes.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 28 What if there be five less than fifty just persons? wilt thou for five and forty destroy the whole city: And he said: I will not destroy it, if I find five and forty.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 29 And again he said to him: But if forty be found there, what wilt thou do? He said: I will not destroy it for the sake of forty.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 30 Lord, saith he, be not angry, I beseech thee, if I speak: What if thirty shall be found there? He answered: I will not do it, if I find thirty there.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 31 Seeing, saith he, I have once begun, I will speak to my Lord: What if twenty be found there? He said: I will not destroy it for the sake of twenty.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 32 I beseech thee, saith he, be not angry, Lord, if I speak yet once more: What if ten shall be found there? And he said: I will not destroy it for the sake of ten.
+Genesis Gen 1 18 33 And the Lord departed, after he had left speaking to Abraham: and Abraham returned to his place.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 1 And the two angels came to Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gate of the city. And seeing them, he rose up and went to meet them: and worshipped prostrate to the ground.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 2 And said: I beseech you, my lords, turn in to the house of your servant, and lodge there: wash your feet, and in the morning you shall go on your way. And they said: No, but we will abide in the street.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 3 He pressed them very much to turn in unto him: and when they were come into his house, he made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread, and they ate:
+Genesis Gen 1 19 4 But before they went to bed, the men of the city beset the house, both young and old, all the people together.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 5 And they called Lot, and said to him: Where are the men that came in to thee at night? bring them out hither, that we may know them:
+Genesis Gen 1 19 6 Lot went out to them, and shut the door after him, and said:
+Genesis Gen 1 19 7 Do not so, I beseech you, my brethren, do not commit this evil.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 8 I have two daughters who, as yet, have not known man; I will bring them out to you, and abuse you them as it shall please you, so that you do no evil to these men, because they are come in under the shadow of my roof.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 9 But they said: Get thee back thither. And again: Thou camest in, said they, as a stranger, was it to be a judge? therefore we will afflict thee more than them. And they pressed very violently upon Lot: and they were even at the point of breaking open the doors.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 10 And behold the men put out their hand, and drew in Lot unto them, and shut the door.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 11 And them, that were without, they struck with blindness from the least to the greatest, so that they could not find the door.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 12 And they said to Lot: Hast thou here any of thine? son in law, or sons, or daughters, all that are thine bring them out of this city:
+Genesis Gen 1 19 13 For we will destroy this place, because their cry is grown loud before the Lord, who hath sent us to destroy them.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 14 So Lot went out, and spoke to his sons in law that were to have his daughters, and said: Arise: get you out of this place, because the Lord will destroy this city. And he seemed to them to speak as it were in jest.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 15 And when it was morning, the angels pressed him, saying: Arise, take thy wife, and the two daughters that thou hast: lest thou also perish in the wickedness of the city.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 16 And as he lingered, they took his hand, and the hand of his wife, and of his two daughters, because the Lord spared him.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 17 And they brought him forth, and set him without the city: and there they spoke to him, saying: Save thy life: look not back, neither stay thou in all the country about: but save thy self in the mountain, lest thou be also consumed.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 18 And Lot said to them: I beseech thee, my Lord,
+Genesis Gen 1 19 19 Because thy servant hath found grace before thee, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewn to me, in saving my life, and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil seize me, and I die.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 20 There is this city here at hand, to which I may flee, it is a little one, and I shall be saved in it: is it not a little one, and my soul shall live?
+Genesis Gen 1 19 21 And he said to him: Behold also in this, I have heard thy prayers, not to destroy the city for which thou hast spoken.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 22 Make haste, and be saved there: because I cannot do any thing till thou go in thither. Therefore the name of that city was called Segor.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 23 The sun was risen upon the earth, and Lot entered into Segor.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 24 And the Lord rained upon Sodom and Gomorrha brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 25 And he destroyed these cities, and all the country about, all the inhabitants of the cities, and all things that spring from the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 26 And his wife looking behind her, was turned into a statue of salt.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 27 And Abraham got up early in the morning, and in the place where he had stood before with the Lord:
+Genesis Gen 1 19 28 He looked towards Sodom and Gomorrha, and the whole land of that country: and he saw the ashes rise up from the earth as the smoke of a furnace.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 29 Now when God destroyed the cities of that country, remembering Abraham, he delivered Lot out of the destruction of the cities wherein he had dwelt.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 30 And Lot went up out of Segor, and abode in the mountain, and his two daughters with him (for he was afraid to stay in Segor) and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters with him.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 31 And the elder said to the younger: Our father is old, and there is no man left on the earth, to come in unto us after the manner of the whole earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 32 Come, let us make him drunk with wine, and let us lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 33 And they made their father drink wine that night: and the elder went in, and lay with her father: but he perceived not, neither when his daughter lay down, nor when she rose up.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 34 And the next day the elder said to the younger: Behold I lay last night with my father, let us make him drink wine also to night, and thou shalt lie with him, that we may save seed of our father.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 35 They made their father drink wine that night also, and the younger daughter went in, and lay with him: and neither then did he perceive when she lay down, nor when she rose up.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 36 So the two daughters of Lot were with child by their father.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 37 And the elder bore a son, and she called his name Moab: he is the father of the Moabites unto this day.
+Genesis Gen 1 19 38 The younger also bore a son, and she called his name Ammon; that is, the son of my people: he is the father of the Ammonites unto this day.
+Genesis Gen 1 20 1 Abraham removed from thence to the south country, and dwelt between Cades and Sur, and sojourned in Gerara.
+Genesis Gen 1 20 2 And he said of Sara his wife: She is my sister. So Abimelech the king of Gerara sent, and took her.
+Genesis Gen 1 20 3 And God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and he said to him: Lo thou shalt die for the woman that thou hast taken: for she hath a husband.
+Genesis Gen 1 20 4 Now Abimelech had not touched her, and he said: Lord, wilt thou slay a nation that is ignorant and just?
+Genesis Gen 1 20 5 Did not he say to me: She is my sister: and she say, He is my brother? in the simplicity of my heart, and cleanness of my hands have I done this.
+Genesis Gen 1 20 6 And God said to him: And I know that thou didst it with a sincere heart: and therefore I withheld thee from sinning against me, and I suffered thee not to touch her.
+Genesis Gen 1 20 7 Now therefore restore the man his wife, for he is a prophet: and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live: but if thou wilt not restore her, know that thou shalt surely die, thou and all that are thine.
+Genesis Gen 1 20 8 And Abimelech forthwith rising up in the night, called all his servants: and spoke all these words in their hearing, and all the men were exceedingly afraid.
+Genesis Gen 1 20 9 And Abimelech called also for Abraham, and said to him: What hast thou done to us? what have we offended thee in, that thou hast brought upon me and upon my kingdom a great sin? thou hast done to us what thou oughtest not to do.
+Genesis Gen 1 20 10 And again he expostulated with him, and said: What sawest thou, that thou hast done this?
+Genesis Gen 1 20 11 Abraham answered: I thought with myself, saying: Perhaps there is not the fear of God in this place: and they will kill me for the sake of my wife:
+Genesis Gen 1 20 12 Howbeit, otherwise also she is truly my sister, the daughter of my father, and not the daughter of my mother, and I took her to wife.
+Genesis Gen 1 20 13 And after God brought me out of my father’s house, I said to her: Thou shalt do me this kindness: In every place, to which we shall come, thou shalt say that I am thy brother.
+Genesis Gen 1 20 14 And Abimelech took sheep and oxen, and servants and handmaids, and gave to Abraham: and restored to him Sara his wife,
+Genesis Gen 1 20 15 And said: The land is before you, dwell wheresoever it shall please thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 20 16 And to Sara he said: Behold I have given thy brother a thousand pieces of silver, this shall serve thee for a covering of thy eyes to all that are with thee, and whithersoever thou shalt go: and remember thou wast taken.
+Genesis Gen 1 20 17 And when Abraham prayed, God healed Abimelech and his wife, and his handmaids, and they bore children:
+Genesis Gen 1 20 18 For the Lord had closed up every womb of the house of Abimelech, on account of Sara, Abraham’s wife.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 1 And the Lord visited Sara, as he had promised: and fulfilled what he had spoken.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 2 And she conceived and bore a son in her old age, at the time that God had foretold her.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 3 And Abraham called the name of his son, whom Sara bore him, Isaac.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 4 And he circumcised him the eighth day, as God had commanded him,
+Genesis Gen 1 21 5 When he was a hundred years old: for at this age of his father, was Isaac born.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 6 And Sara said: God hath made a laughter for me: whosoever shall hear of it will laugh with me.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 7 And again she said: Who would believe that Abraham should hear that Sara gave suck to a son, whom she bore to him in his old age?
+Genesis Gen 1 21 8 And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast on the day of his weaning.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 9 And when Sara had seen the son of Agar, the Egyptian, playing with Isaac, her son, she said to Abraham:
+Genesis Gen 1 21 10 Cast out this bondwoman and her son; for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with my son Isaac.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 11 Abraham took this grievously for his son.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 12 And God said to him: Let it not seem grievous to thee for the boy, and for thy bondwoman: in all that Sara hath said to thee, hearken to her voice: for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 13 But I will make the son also of the bondwoman a great nation, because he is thy seed.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 14 So Abraham rose up in the morning, and taking bread and a bottle of water, put it upon her shoulder, and delivered the boy, and sent her away. And she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Bersabee.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 15 And when the water in the bottle was spent, she cast the boy under one of the trees that were there.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 16 And she went her way, and sat over against him a great way off, as far as a bow can carry, for she said: I will not see the boy die: and sitting over against, she lifted up her voice and wept.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 17 And God heard the voice of the boy: and an angel of God called to Agar from heaven, saying: What art thou doing, Agar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the boy, from the place wherein he is.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 18 Arise, take up the boy, and hold him by the hand, for I will make him a great nation.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 19 And God opened her eyes: and she saw a well of water, and went and filled the bottle, and gave the boy to drink.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 20 And God was with him: and he grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became a young man, an archer.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 21 And he dwelt in the wilderness of Pharan, and his mother took a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 22 At the same time Abimelech, and Phicol the general of his army, said to Abraham: God is with thee in all that thou dost.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 23 Swear therefore by God, that thou wilt not hurt me, nor my posterity, nor my stock: but according to the kindness that I have done to thee, thou shalt do to me, and to the land wherein thou hast lived a stranger.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 24 And Abraham said: I will swear.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 25 And he reproved Abimelech for a well of water, which his servants had taken away by force.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 26 And Abimelech answered: I knew not who did this thing: and thou didst not tell me, and I heard not of it till today.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 27 Then Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them to Abimelech: and both of them made a league.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 28 And Abraham set apart seven ewelambs of the flock.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 29 And Abimelech said to him: What mean these seven ewelambs which thou hast set apart?
+Genesis Gen 1 21 30 But he said: Thou shalt take seven ewelambs at my hand: that they may be a testimony for me, that I dug this well.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 31 Therefore that place was called Bersabee; because there both of them did swear.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 32 And they made a league for the well of oath.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 33 And Abimelech and Phicol, the general of his army, arose and returned to the land of the Palestines. But Abraham planted a grove in Bersabee, and there called upon the name of the Lord God eternal.
+Genesis Gen 1 21 34 And he was a sojourner in the land of the Palestines many days.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 1 After these things, God tempted Abraham, and said to him: Abraham, Abraham. And he answered: Here I am.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 2 He said to him: Take thy only begotten son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and go into the land of vision; and there thou shalt offer him for an holocaust upon one of the mountains which I will shew thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 3 So Abraham rising up in the night, saddled his ass, and took with him two young men, and Isaac his son: and when he had cut wood for the holocaust, he went his way to the place which God had commanded him.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 4 And on the third day, lifting up his eyes, he saw the place afar off.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 5 And he said to his young men: Stay you here with the ass; I and the boy will go with speed as far as yonder, and after we have worshipped, will return to you.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 6 And he took the wood for the holocaust, and laid it upon Isaac his son; and he himself carried in his hands fire and a sword. And as they two went on together,
+Genesis Gen 1 22 7 Isaac said to his father: My father. And he answered: What wilt thou, son? Behold, saith he, fire and wood: where is the victim for the holocaust?
+Genesis Gen 1 22 8 And Abraham said: God will provide himself a victim for an holocaust, my son. So they went on together.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 9 And they came to the place which God had shewn him, where he built an altar, and laid the wood in order upon it; and when he had bound Isaac his son, he laid him on the altar upon the pile of wood.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 10 And he put forth his hand, and took the sword, to sacrifice his son.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 11 And behold, an angel of the Lord from heaven called to him, saying: Abraham, Abraham. And he answered: Here I am.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 12 And he said to him: Lay not thy hand upon the boy, neither do thou any thing to him: now I know that thou fearest God, and hast not spared thy only begotten son for my sake.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 13 Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw behind his back a ram, amongst the briers, sticking fast by the horns, which he took and offered for a holocaust instead of his son.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 14 And he called the name of that place, The Lord seeth. Whereupon, even to this day, it is said: In the mountain the Lord will see.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 15 And the angel of the Lord called to Abraham a second time from heaven, saying:
+Genesis Gen 1 22 16 By my own self have I sworn, saith the Lord: because thou hast done this thing, and hast not spared thy only begotten son for my sake:
+Genesis Gen 1 22 17 I will bless thee, and I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand that is by the sea shore; thy seed shall possess the gates of their enemies.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because thou hast obeyed my voice.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 19 Abraham returned to his young men, and they went to Bersabee together, and he dwelt there.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 20 After these things, it was told Abraham, that Melcha also had borne children to Nachor his brother.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 21 Hus, the firstborn, and Buz, his brother, and Camuel the father of the Syrians,
+Genesis Gen 1 22 22 And Cased, and Azau, and Pheldas, and Jedlaph,
+Genesis Gen 1 22 23 And Bathuel, of whom was born Rebecca: these eight did Melcha bear to Nachor, Abraham’s brother.
+Genesis Gen 1 22 24 And his concubine, named Roma, bore Tabee, and Gaham, and Tahas, and Maacha.
+Genesis Gen 1 23 1 And Sara lived a hundred and twenty-seven years.
+Genesis Gen 1 23 2 And she died in the city of Arbee which is Hebron, in the land of Chanaan: and Abraham came to mourn and weep for her.
+Genesis Gen 1 23 3 And after he rose up from the funeral obsequies, he spoke to the children of Heth, saying:
+Genesis Gen 1 23 4 I am a stranger and sojourner among you: give me the right of a burying place with you, that I may bury my dead.
+Genesis Gen 1 23 5 The children of Heth answered, saying:
+Genesis Gen 1 23 6 My lord, hear us, thou art a prince of God among us: bury thy dead in our principal sepulchres: and no man shall have power to hinder thee from burying thy dead in his sepulchre.
+Genesis Gen 1 23 7 Abraham rose up, and bowed down to the people of the land, to wit, the children of Heth:
+Genesis Gen 1 23 8 And said to them: If it please your soul that I should bury my dead, hear me, and intercede for me to Ephron the son of Seor.
+Genesis Gen 1 23 9 That he may give me the double cave, which he hath in the end of his field: For as much money as it is worth he shall give it me before you, for a possession of a burying place.
+Genesis Gen 1 23 10 Now Ephron dwelt in the midst of the children of Heth. And Ephron made answer to Abraham in the hearing of all that went in at the gate of the city, saying:
+Genesis Gen 1 23 11 Let it not be so, my lord, but do thou rather hearken to what I say: The field I deliver to thee, and the cave that is therein; in the presence of the children of my people, bury thy dead.
+Genesis Gen 1 23 12 Abraham bowed down before the people of the land.
+Genesis Gen 1 23 13 And he spoke to Ephron, in the presence of the people: I beseech thee to hear me: I will give money for the field; take it, and so will I bury my dead in it.
+Genesis Gen 1 23 14 And Ephron answered:
+Genesis Gen 1 23 15 My lord, hear me. The ground which thou desirest, is worth four hundred sicles of silver: this is the price between me and thee: but what is this? bury thy dead.
+Genesis Gen 1 23 16 And when Abraham had heard this, he weighed out the money that Ephron had asked, in the hearing of the children of Heth, four hundred sicles of silver, of common current money.
+Genesis Gen 1 23 17 And the field that before was Ephron’s, wherein was the double cave, looking towards Mambre, both it and the cave, and all the trees thereof, in all its limits round about,
+Genesis Gen 1 23 18 Was made sure to Abraham for a possession, in the sight of the children of Heth, and of all that went in at the gate of his city.
+Genesis Gen 1 23 19 And so Abraham buried Sara, his wife, in the double cave of the field, that looked towards Mambre, this is Hebron in the land of Chanaan.
+Genesis Gen 1 23 20 And the field was made sure to Abraham, and the cave that was in it, for a possession to bury in, by the children of Heth.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 1 Now Abraham was old, and advanced in age; and the Lord had blessed him in all things.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 2 And he said to the elder servant of his house, who was ruler over all he had: Put thy hand under my thigh,
+Genesis Gen 1 24 3 That I may make thee swear by the Lord, the God of heaven and earth, that thou take not a wife for my son, of the daughters of the Chanaanites, among whom I dwell:
+Genesis Gen 1 24 4 But that thou go to my own country and kindred, and take a wife from thence for my son Isaac.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 5 The servant answered: If the woman will not come with me into this land, must I bring thy son back again to the place from whence thou camest out?
+Genesis Gen 1 24 6 And Abraham said: Beware thou never bring my son back again thither.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 7 The Lord God of heaven, who took me out of my father’s house, and out of my native country, who spoke to me, and swore to me, saying: To thy seed will I give this land: he will send his angel before thee, and thou shalt take from thence a wife for my son.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 8 But if the woman will not follow thee, thou shalt not be bound by the oath: only bring not my son back thither again.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 9 The servant, therefore, put his hand under the thigh of Abraham, his lord, and swore to him upon his word.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 10 And he took ten camels of his master’s herd, and departed, carrying something of all his goods with him, and he set forward and went on to Mesopotamia, to the city of Nachor.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 11 And when he had made the camels lie down without the town, near a well of water, in the evening, at the time when women are wont to come out to draw water, he said:
+Genesis Gen 1 24 12 O Lord, the God of my master, Abraham, meet me today, I beseech thee, and shew kindness to my master, Abraham.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 13 Behold, I stand nigh the spring of water, and the daughters of the inhabitants of this city will come out to draw water:
+Genesis Gen 1 24 14 Now, therefore, the maid to whom I shall say: Let down thy pitcher that I may drink: and she shall answer, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: let it be the same whom thou hast provided for thy servant Isaac: and by this, I shall understand that thou hast shewn kindness to my master.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 15 He had not yet ended these words within himself, and behold Rebecca came out, the daughter of Bathuel, son of Melcha, wife to Nachor the brother of Abraham, having a pitcher on her shoulder:
+Genesis Gen 1 24 16 An exceeding comely maid, and a most beautiful virgin, and not known to man: and she went down to the spring, and filled her pitcher, and was coming back.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 17 And the servant ran to meet her, and said: Give me a little water to drink of thy pitcher.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 18 And she answered: Drink, my lord. And quickly she let down the pitcher upon her arm, and gave him drink.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 19 And when he had drunk, she said: I will draw water for thy camels also, till they all drink.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 20 And pouring out the pitcher into the troughs, she ran back to the well to draw water; and having drawn, she gave to all the camels.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 21 But he musing, beheld her with silence, desirous to know whether the Lord had made his journey prosperous or not.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 22 And after that the camels had drunk, the man took out golden earrings, weighing two sicles; and as many bracelets, of ten sicles weight.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 23 And he said to her: Whose daughter art thou? tell me: is there any place in thy father’s house to lodge?
+Genesis Gen 1 24 24 And she answered: I am the daughter of Bathuel, the son of Melcha, whom she bore to Nachor.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 25 And she said, moreover, to him: We have good store of both straw and hay, and a large place to lodge in.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 26 The man bowed himself down, and adored the Lord,
+Genesis Gen 1 24 27 Saying: Blessed be the Lord God of my master Abraham, who hath not taken away his mercy and truth from my master, and hath brought me the straight way into the house of my master’s brother.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 28 Then the maid ran, and told in her mother’s house all that she had heard.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 29 And Rebecca had a brother, named Laban, who went out in haste to the man, to the well.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 30 And when he had seen the earrings and bracelets in his sister’s hands, and had heard all that she related, saying, Thus and thus the man spoke to me: he came to the man who stood by the camels, and near to the spring of water,
+Genesis Gen 1 24 31 And said to him: Come in, thou blessed of the Lord; why standest thou without? I have prepared the house, and a place for the camels.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 32 And he brought him into his lodging; and he unharnessed the camels, and gave straw and hay, and water to wash his feet, and the feet of the men that were come with him.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 33 And bread was set before him. But he said: I will not eat, till I tell my message. He answered him: Speak.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 34 And he said: I am the servant of Abraham:
+Genesis Gen 1 24 35 And the Lord hath blessed my master wonderfully, and he is become great: and he hath given him sheep and oxen, silver and gold, men servants and women servants, camels and asses.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 36 And Sara, my master’s wife, hath borne my master a son in her old age, and he hath given him all that he had.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 37 And my master made me swear, saying: Thou shalt not take a wife for my son of the Chanaanites, in whose land I dwell:
+Genesis Gen 1 24 38 But thou shalt go to my father’s house, and shalt take a wife of my own kindred for my son:
+Genesis Gen 1 24 39 But I answered my master: What if the woman will not come with me?
+Genesis Gen 1 24 40 The Lord, said he, in whose sight I walk, will send his angel with thee, and will direct thy way: and thou shalt take a wife for my son of my own kindred, and of my father’s house.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 41 But thou shalt be clear from my curse, when thou shalt come to my kindred, if they will not give thee one.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 42 And I came today to the well of water, and said: O Lord God of my master, Abraham, if thou hast prospered my way, wherein I now walk,
+Genesis Gen 1 24 43 Behold, I stand by the well of water, and the virgin, that shall come out to draw water, who shall hear me say: Give me a little water to drink of thy pitcher:
+Genesis Gen 1 24 44 And shall say to me: Both drink thou, and I will also draw for thy camels: let the same be the woman, whom the Lord hath prepared for my master’s son.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 45 And whilst I pondered these things secretly with myself, Rebecca appeared, coming with a pitcher, which she carried on her shoulder: and she went down to the well and drew water. And I said to her: Give me a little to drink.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 46 And she speedily let down the pitcher from her shoulder, and said to me: Both drink thou, and to thy camels I will give drink. I drank, and she watered the camels.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 47 And I asked her, and said: Whose daughter art thou? And she answered: I am the daughter of Bathuel, the son of Nachor, whom Melcha bore to him. So I put earrings on her to adorn her face, and I put bracelets on her hands.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 48 And falling down, I adored the Lord, blessing the Lord God of my master, Abraham, who hath brought me the straight way to take the daughter of my master’s brother for his son.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 49 Wherefore, if you do according to mercy and truth with my master, tell me: but if it please you otherwise, tell me that also, that I may go to the right hand, or to the left.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 50 And Laban and Bathuel answered: The word hath proceeded from the Lord: we cannot speak any other thing to thee but his pleasure.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 51 Behold, Rebecca is before thee, take her and go thy way, and let her be the wife of thy master’s son, as the Lord hath spoken.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 52 Which when Abraham’s servant heard, falling down to the ground, he adored the Lord.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 53 And bringing forth vessels of silver and gold, and garments, he gave them to Rebecca, for a present. He offered gifts also to her brothers, and to her mother.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 54 And a banquet was made, and they ate and drank together, and lodged there. And in the morning, the servant arose, and said: Let me depart, that I may go to my master.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 55 And her brother and mother answered: Let the maid stay, at least, ten days with us, and afterwards she shall depart.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 56 Stay me not, said he, because the Lord hath prospered my way: send me away, that I may go to my master.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 57 And they said: Let us call the maid, and ask her will.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 58 And they called her, and when she was come, they asked: Wilt thou go with this man? She said: I will go.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 59 So they sent her away, and her nurse, and Abraham’s servant, and his company.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 60 Wishing prosperity to their sister, and saying: Thou art our sister, mayst thou increase to thousands of thousands; and may thy seed possess the gates of their enemies.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 61 So Rebecca and her maids, being set upon camels, followed the man: who with speed returned to his master.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 62 At the same time, Isaac was walking along the way to the well which is called Of the living and the seeing: for he dwelt in the south country:
+Genesis Gen 1 24 63 And he was gone forth to meditate in the field, the day being now well spent: and when he had lifted up his eyes, he saw camels coming afar off.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 64 Rebecca also, when she saw Isaac, lighted off the camel,
+Genesis Gen 1 24 65 And said to the servant: Who is that man who cometh towards us along the field? And he said to her: That man is my master. But she quickly took her cloak, and covered herself.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 66 And the servant told Isaac all that he had done.
+Genesis Gen 1 24 67 Who brought her into the tent of Sara his mother, and took her to wife: and he loved her so much, that it moderated the sorrow which was occasioned by his mother’s death.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 1 And Abraham married another wife named Cetura:
+Genesis Gen 1 25 2 Who bore him Zamram, and Jecsan, and Madan, and Madian, and Jesboc, and Sue.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 3 Jecsan also begot Saba, and Dadan. The children of Dadan were Assurim, and Latusim, and Loomim.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 4 But of Madian was born Epha, and Opher, and Henoch, and Abida, and Eldaa: all these were the children of Cetura.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 5 And Abraham gave all his possessions to Isaac:
+Genesis Gen 1 25 6 And to the children of the concubines he gave gifts, and separated them from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, to the east country.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 7 And the days of Abraham’s life were a hundred and seventy-five years.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 8 And decaying he died in a good old age, and having lived a long time, and being full of days: and was gathered to his people.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 9 And Isaac and Ismael his sons buried him in the double cave, which was situated in the field of Ephron the son of Seor the Hethite, over against Mambre,
+Genesis Gen 1 25 10 Which he had bought of the children of Heth: there was he buried, and Sara his wife.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 11 And after his death, God blessed Isaac his son, who dwelt by the well named Of the living and seeing.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 12 These are the generations of Ismael the son of Abraham, whom Agar the Egyptian, Sara’s servant, bore unto him:
+Genesis Gen 1 25 13 And these are the names of his children according to their calling and generations. The firstborn of Ismael was Nabajoth, then Cedar, and Adbeel, and Mabsam,
+Genesis Gen 1 25 14 And Masma, and Duma, and Massa,
+Genesis Gen 1 25 15 Hadar, and Thema, and Jethur, and Naphis, and Cedma.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 16 These are the sons of Ismael: and these are their names by their castles and towns, twelve princes of their tribes.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 17 And the years of Ismael’s life were a hundred and thirty-seven, and decaying he died, and was gathered unto his people.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 18 And he dwelt from Hevila as far as Sur, which looketh towards Egypt, to them that go towards the Assyrians. He died in the presence of all his brethren.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 19 These also are the generations of Isaac the son of Abraham: Abraham begot Isaac:
+Genesis Gen 1 25 20 Who when he was forty years old, took to wife Rebecca the daughter of Bathuel the Syrian of Mesopotamia, sister to Laban.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 21 And Isaac besought the Lord for his wife, because she was barren: and he heard him, and made Rebecca to conceive.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 22 But the children struggled in her womb, and she said: If it were to be so with me, what need was there to conceive? And she went to consult the Lord.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 23 And he answering, said: Two nations are in thy womb, and two peoples shall be divided out of thy womb, and one people shall overcome the other, and the elder shall serve the younger.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 24 And when her time was come to be delivered, behold twins were found in her womb.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 25 He that came forth first was red, and hairy like a skin: and his name was called Esau. Immediately the other coming forth, held his brother’s foot in his hand: and therefore he was called Jacob.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 26 Isaac was threescore years old when the children were born unto him.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 27 And when they were grown up, Esau became a skilful hunter, and a husbandman: but Jacob, a plain man, dwelt in tents.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 28 Isaac loved Esau, because he ate of his hunting: and Rebecca loved Jacob.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 29 And Jacob boiled pottage: to whom Esau, coming faint out of the field,
+Genesis Gen 1 25 30 Said: Give me of this red pottage, for I am exceeding faint. For which reason his name was called Edom.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 31 And Jacob said to him: Sell me thy first birthright.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 32 He answered: Lo I die, what will the first birthright avail me?
+Genesis Gen 1 25 33 Jacob said: Swear therefore to me. Esau swore to him, and sold his first birthright.
+Genesis Gen 1 25 34 And so taking bread and the pottage of lentils, he ate, and drank, and went on his way; making little account of having sold his first birthright.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 1 And when a famine came in the land, after that barrenness which had happened in the days of Abraham, Isaac went to Abimelech, king of the Palestines, to Gerara.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 2 And the Lord appeared to him, and said: Go not down into Egypt, but stay in the land that I shall tell thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 3 And sojourn in it, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee: for to thee and to thy seed I will give all these countries, to fulfil the oath which I swore to Abraham thy father.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 4 And I will multiply thy seed like the stars of heaven: and I will give to thy posterity all these countries: and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 5 Because Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my precepts and commandments, and observed my ceremonies and laws.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 6 So Isaac abode in Gerara.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 7 And when he was asked by the men of that place, concerning his wife, he answered: She is my sister: for he was afraid to confess that she was his wife, thinking lest perhaps they would kill him because of her beauty.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 8 And when very many days were passed, and he abode there, Abimelech, king of the Palestines, looking out through a window, saw him playing with Rebecca, his wife.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 9 And calling for him, he said: It is evident she is thy wife: why didst thou feign her to be thy sister? He answered: I feared lest I should die for her sake.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 10 And Abimelech said: Why hast thou deceived us? Some man of the people might have lain with thy wife, and thou hadst brought upon us a great sin. And he commanded all the people, saying:
+Genesis Gen 1 26 11 He that shall touch this man’s wife, shall surely be put to death.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 12 And Isaac sowed in that land, and he found that same year a hundredfold: and the Lord blessed him.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 13 And the man was enriched, and he went on prospering and increasing, till he became exceeding great.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 14 And he had possessions of sheep and of herds, and a very great family. Wherefore the Palestines envying him,
+Genesis Gen 1 26 15 Stopped up at that time all the wells, that the servants of his father, Abraham, had digged, filling them up with earth:
+Genesis Gen 1 26 16 Insomuch that Abimelech himself said to Isaac: Depart from us, for thou art become much mightier than we.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 17 So he departed, and came to the torrent of Gerara, to dwell there:
+Genesis Gen 1 26 18 And he digged again other wells, which the servants of his father, Abraham, had digged, and which, after his death, the Philistines had of old stopped up: and he called them by the same names, by which his father before had called them.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 19 And they digged in the torrent, and found living water:
+Genesis Gen 1 26 20 But there also the herdsmen of Gerara strove against the herdsmen of Isaac, saying: It is our water. Wherefore he called the name of the well, on occasion of that which had happened, Calumny.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 21 And they digged also another; and for that they quarrelled likewise, and he called the name of it, Enmity.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 22 Going forward from thence, he digged another well, for which they contended not; therefore he called the name thereof, Latitude, saying: Now hath the Lord given us room, and made us to increase upon the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 23 And he went up from that place to Bersabee,
+Genesis Gen 1 26 24 Where the Lord appeared to him that same night, saying: I am the God of Abraham thy father, do not fear, for I am with thee: I will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham’s sake.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 25 And he built there an altar: and called upon the name of the Lord, and pitched his tent; and commanded his servants to dig a well.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 26 To which place when Abimelech, and Ochozath his friend, and Phicol chief captain of his soldiers, came from Gerara,
+Genesis Gen 1 26 27 Isaac said to them: Why are ye come to me, a man whom you hate, and have thrust out from you?
+Genesis Gen 1 26 28 And they answered: We saw that the Lord is with thee, and therefore we said: Let there be an oath between us, and let us make a covenant,
+Genesis Gen 1 26 29 That thou do us no harm, as we on our part have touched nothing of thine, nor have done any thing to hurt thee; but with peace have sent thee away, increased with the blessing of the Lord.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 30 And he made them a feast, and after they had eaten and drunk:
+Genesis Gen 1 26 31 Arising in the morning, they swore one to another: and Isaac sent them away peaceably to their own home.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 32 And behold, the same day the servants of Isaac came, telling him of a well which they had digged, and saying: We have found water.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 33 Whereupon he called it Abundance: and the name of the city was called Bersabee, even to this day.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 34 And Esau being forty years old, married wives, Judith, the daughter of Beeri, the Hethite, and Basemath, the daughter of Elon, of the same place.
+Genesis Gen 1 26 35 And they both offended the mind of Isaac and Rebecca.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 1 Now Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, and he could not see: and he called Esau, his elder son, and said to him: My son? And he answered: Here I am.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 2 And his father said to him, Thou seest that I am old, and know not the day of my death.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 3 Take thy arms, thy quiver, and bow, and go abroad; and when thou hast taken something by hunting,
+Genesis Gen 1 27 4 Make me a savoury meat thereof, as thou knowest I like, and bring it that I may eat: and my soul may bless thee, before I die.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 5 And when Rebecca had heard this, and he was gone into the field to fulfil his father’s commandment,
+Genesis Gen 1 27 6 She said to her son Jacob: I heard thy father talking with Esau, thy brother, and saying to him:
+Genesis Gen 1 27 7 Bring me of thy hunting, and make me meats that I may eat, and bless thee in the sight of the Lord, before I die.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 8 Now therefore, my son, follow my counsel:
+Genesis Gen 1 27 9 And go thy way to the flock, bring me two kids of the best, that I may make of them meat for thy father, such as he gladly eateth.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 10 Which when thou hast brought in, and he hath eaten, he may bless thee before he die.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 11 And he answered her: Thou knowest that Esau, my brother, is a hairy man, and I am smooth:
+Genesis Gen 1 27 12 If my father should feel me, and perceive it, I fear lest he will think I would have mocked him, and I shall bring upon me a curse instead of a blessing.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 13 And his mother said to him: Upon me be this curse, my son: only hear thou my voice, and go, fetch me the things which I have said.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 14 He went, and brought, and gave them to his mother. She dressed meats, such as she knew his father liked.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 15 And she put on him very good garments of Esau, which she had at home with her:
+Genesis Gen 1 27 16 And the little skins of the kids she put about his hands, and covered the bare of his neck.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 17 And she gave him the savoury meat, and delivered him bread that she had baked.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 18 Which when he had carried in, he said: My father? But he answered: I hear. Who art thou, my son?
+Genesis Gen 1 27 19 And Jacob said: I am Esau, thy firstborn: I have done as thou didst command me: arise, sit and eat of my venison, that thy soul may bless me.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 20 And Isaac said to his son: How couldst thou find it so quickly, my son? He answered: It was the will of God, that what I sought came quickly in my way:
+Genesis Gen 1 27 21 And Isaac said: Come hither, that I may feel thee, my son, and may prove whether thou be my son Esau, or no.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 22 He came near to his father, and when he had felt him, Isaac said: The voice indeed is the voice of Jacob; but the hands, are the hands of Esau.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 23 And he knew him not, because his hairy hands made him like to the elder. Then blessing him,
+Genesis Gen 1 27 24 He said: Art thou my son Esau? He answered: I am.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 25 Then he said: Bring me the meats of thy hunting, my son, that my soul may bless thee. And when they were brought, and he had eaten, he offered him wine also, which after he had drunk,
+Genesis Gen 1 27 26 He said to him: Come near me, and give me a kiss, my son.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 27 He came near, and kissed him. And immediately as he smelled the fragrant smell of his garments, blessing him, he said: Behold, the smell of my son is as the smell of a plentiful field, which the Lord hath blessed.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 28 God give thee of the dew of heaven, and of the fatness of the earth, abundance of corn and wine.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 29 And let peoples serve thee, and tribes worship thee: be thou lord of thy brethren, and let thy mother’s children bow down before thee. Cursed be he that curseth thee: and let him that blesseth thee be filled with blessings.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 30 Isaac had scarce ended his words, when, Jacob being now gone out abroad, Esau came,
+Genesis Gen 1 27 31 And brought in to his father meats, made of what he had taken in hunting, saying: Arise, my father, and eat of thy son’s venison; that thy soul may bless me.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 32 And Isaac said to him: Why! who art thou? He answered: I am thy firstborn son, Esau.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 33 Isaac was struck with fear, and astonished exceedingly; and wondering beyond what can be believed, said: Who is he then that even now brought me venison that he had taken, and I ate of all before thou camest? and I have blessed him, and he shall be blessed.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 34 Esau having heard his father’s words, roared out with a great cry; and, being in a consternation, said: Bless me also, my father.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 35 And he said: Thy brother came deceitfully and got thy blessing.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 36 But he said again: Rightly is his name called Jacob; for he hath supplanted me lo this second time: My birthright he took away before, and now this second time he hath stolen away my blessing. And again he said to his father: Hast thou not reserved me also a blessing?
+Genesis Gen 1 27 37 Isaac answered: I have appointed him thy lord, and have made all his brethren his servants: I have established him with corn and wine, and after this, what shall I do more for thee, my son?
+Genesis Gen 1 27 38 And Esau said to him: Hast thou only one blessing, father? I beseech thee bless me also. And when he wept with a loud cry,
+Genesis Gen 1 27 39 Isaac being moved, said to him: In the fat of the earth, and in the dew of heaven from above,
+Genesis Gen 1 27 40 Shall thy blessing be. Thou shalt live by the sword, and shalt serve thy brother: and the time shall come, when thou shalt shake off and loose his yoke from thy neck.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 41 Esau therefore always hated Jacob, for the blessing wherewith his father had blessed him; and he said in his heart: The days will come of the mourning for my father, and I will kill my brother Jacob.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 42 These things were told to Rebecca: and she sent and called Jacob, her son, and said to him: Behold Esau, thy brother, threateneth to kill thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 27 43 Now therefore, my son, hear my voice, arise and flee to Laban, my brother, to Haran:
+Genesis Gen 1 27 44 And thou shalt dwell with him a few days, till the wrath of thy brother be assuaged,
+Genesis Gen 1 27 45 And his indignation cease, and he forget the things thou hast done to him: afterwards I will send, and bring thee from thence hither. Why shall I be deprived of both my sons in one day?
+Genesis Gen 1 27 46 And Rebecca said to Isaac: I am weary of my life, because of the daughters of Heth: if Jacob take a wife of the stock of this land, I choose not to live.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 1 And Isaac called Jacob, and blessed him, and charged him, saying: Take not a wife of the stock of Chanaan:
+Genesis Gen 1 28 2 But go, and take a journey to Mesopotamia of Syria, to the house of Bathuel, thy mother’s father, and take thee a wife thence of the daughters of Laban, thy uncle.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 3 And God almighty bless thee, and make thee to increase and multiply thee: that thou mayst be a multitude of people.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 4 And give the blessings of Araham to thee, and to thy seed after thee: that thou mayst possess the land of thy sojournment, which he promised to thy grandfather.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 5 And when Isaac had sent him away, he took his journey and went to Mesopotamia of Syria, to Laban, the son of Bathuel, the Syrian, brother to Rebecca, his mother.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 6 And Esau seeing that his father had blessed Jacob, and had sent him into Mesopotamia of Syria, to marry a wife thence; and that after the blessing he had charged him, saying: Thou shalt not take a wife of the daughters of Chanaan:
+Genesis Gen 1 28 7 And that Jacob obeying his parents, was gone into Syria:
+Genesis Gen 1 28 8 Experiencing also, that his father was not well pleased with the daughters of Chanaan:
+Genesis Gen 1 28 9 He went to Ismael, and took to wife, besides them he had before, Maheleth, the daughter of Ismael, Abraham’s son, the sister of Nabajoth.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 10 But Jacob being departed from Bersabee, went on to Haran.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 11 And when he was come to a certain place, and would rest in it after sunset, he took of the stones that lay there, and putting under his head, slept in the same place.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 12 And he saw in his sleep a ladder standing upon the earth, and the top thereof touching heaven: the angels also of God ascending and descending by it.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 13 And the Lord leaning upon the ladder saying to him: I am the Lord God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: The land, wherein thou sleepest, I will give to thee and to thy seed.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 14 And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth: thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and IN THEE and thy seed, all the tribes of the earth SHALL BE BLESSED.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 15 And I will be thy keeper whithersoever thou goest, and will bring thee back into this land: neither will I leave thee, till I shall have accomplished all that I have said.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 16 And when Jacob awaked out of sleep, he said: Indeed the Lord is in this place, and I knew it not.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 17 And trembling, he said: How terrible is this place? this is no other but the house of God, and the gate of heaven.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 18 And Jacob arising in the morning, took the stone which he had laid under his head, and set it up for a title, pouring oil upon the top of it.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 19 And he called the name of the city Bethel, which before was called Luza.
+Genesis Gen 1 28 20 And he made a vow, saying: If God shall be with me, and shall keep me in the way, by which I walk, and shall give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on,
+Genesis Gen 1 28 21 And I shall return prosperously to my father’s house: the Lord shall be my God:
+Genesis Gen 1 28 22 And this stone, which I have set up for a title, shall be called the house of God: and of all things that thou shalt give to me, I will offer tithes to thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 1 Then Jacob went on in his journey, and came into the east country.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 2 And he saw a well in the field, and three flocks of sheep lying by it: for the beasts were watered out of it, and the mouth thereof was closed with a great stone.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 3 And the custom was, when all the sheep were gathered together, to roll away the stone, and after the sheep were watered, to put it on the mouth of the well again.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 4 And he said to the shepherds: Brethren, whence are you? They answered: Of Haran.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 5 And he asked them, saying: Know you Laban, the son of Nachor? They said: We know him.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 6 He said: Is he in health? He is in health, say they: and behold, Rachel, his daughter, cometh with his flock.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 7 And Jacob said: There is yet much day remaining, neither is it time to bring the flocks into the folds again: first give the sheep drink, and so lead them back to feed.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 8 They answered: We cannot, till all the cattle be gathered together, and we remove the stone from the well’s mouth, that we may water the flocks.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 9 They were yet speaking, and behold Rachel came with her father’s sheep; for she fed the flock.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 10 And when Jacob saw her, and knew her to be his cousin german, and that they were the sheep of Laban, his uncle: he removed the stone wherewith the well was closed.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 11 And having watered the flock, he kissed her: and lifting up his voice wept.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 12 And he told her that he was her father’s brother, and the son of Rebecca: but she went in haste and told her father.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 13 Who, when he heard that Jacob his sister’s son was come, ran forth to meet him: and embracing him, and heartily kissing him, brought him into his house. And when he had heard the causes of his journey,
+Genesis Gen 1 29 14 He answered: Thou art my bone and my flesh. And after the days of one month were expired,
+Genesis Gen 1 29 15 He said to him: Because thou art my brother, shalt thou serve me without wages? Tell me what wages thou wilt have.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 16 Now he had two daughters, the name of the elder was Lia; and the younger was called Rachel.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 17 But Lia was blear-eyed: Rachel was well favoured, and of a beautiful countenance.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 18 And Jacob being in love with her, said: I will serve thee seven years for Rachel, thy younger daughter.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 19 Laban answered: It is better that I give her to thee than to another man; stay with me.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 20 So Jacob served seven years for Rachel: and they seemed but a few days, because of the greatness of his love.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 21 And he said to Laban: Give me my wife; for now the time is fulfilled, that I may go in unto her.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 22 And he, having invited a great number of his friends to the feast, made the marriage.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 23 And at night he brought in Lia, his daughter, to him,
+Genesis Gen 1 29 24 Giving his daughter a handmaid, named Zelpha. Now when Jacob had gone in to her according to custom, when morning was come he saw it was Lia.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 25 And he said to his father-in-law: What is it that thou didst mean to do? did not I serve thee for Rachel? why hast thou deceived me?
+Genesis Gen 1 29 26 Laban answered: It is not the custom in this place, to give the younger in marriage first.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 27 Make up the week of days of this match: and I will give thee her also, for the service that thou shalt render me other seven years.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 28 He yielded to his pleasure: and after the week was past, he married Rachel:
+Genesis Gen 1 29 29 To whom her father gave Bala, for her servant.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 30 And having at length obtained the marriage he wished for, he preferred the love of the latter before the former, and served with him other seven years.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 31 And the Lord seeing that he despised Lia, opened her womb, but her sister remained barren.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 32 And she conceived and bore a son, and called his name Ruben, saying: The Lord saw my affliction: now my husband will love me.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 33 And again she conceived and bore a son, and said: Because the Lord heard that I was despised, he hath given this also to me: and she called his name Simeon.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 34 And she conceived the third time, and bore another son, and said: Now also my husband will be joined to me, because I have borne him three sons: and therefore she called his name Levi.
+Genesis Gen 1 29 35 The fourth time she conceived and bore a son, and said: Now will I praise the Lord: and for this she called him Juda. And she left bearing.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 1 And Rachel seeing herself without children, envied her sister, and said to her husband: Give me children, otherwise I shall die.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 2 And Jacob being angry with her, answered: Am I as God, who hath deprived thee of the fruit of thy womb?
+Genesis Gen 1 30 3 But she said: I have here my servant Bala: go in unto her, that she may bear upon my knees, and I may have children by her.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 4 And she gave him Bala in marriage: who,
+Genesis Gen 1 30 5 When her husband had gone in unto her, conceived and bore a son.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 6 And Rachel said: The Lord hath judged for me, and hath heard my voice, giving me a son; and therefore she called his name Dan.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 7 And again Bala conceived, and bore another,
+Genesis Gen 1 30 8 For whom Rachel said: God hath compared me with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called him Nephthali.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 9 Lia perceiving that she had left of bearing, gave Zelpha, her handmaid, to her husband.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 10 And when she had conceived, and brought forth a son,
+Genesis Gen 1 30 11 She said: Happily. And therefore called his name Gad.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 12 Zelpha also bore another.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 13 And Lia said: This is for my happiness: for women will call me blessed. Therefore she called him Aser.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 14 And Ruben going out in the time of the wheat harvest into the field, found mandrakes: which he brought to his mother Lia. And Rachel said: Give me part of thy son’s mandrakes.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 15 She answered: Dost thou think it a small matter, that thou hast taken my husband from me, unless thou take also my son’s mandrakes? Rachel said: He shall sleep with thee this night, for thy son’s mandrakes.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 16 And when Jacob returned at even from the field, Lia went out to meet him, and said: Thou shalt come in unto me, because I have hired thee for my son’s mandrakes. And he slept with her that night.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 17 And God heard her prayers; and she conceived: and bore a fifth son:
+Genesis Gen 1 30 18 And said: God hath given me a reward, because I gave my handmaid to my husband. And she called his name Issachar.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 19 And Lia conceived again, and bore the sixth son,
+Genesis Gen 1 30 20 And said: God hath endowed me with a good dowry; this turn also my husband will be with me, because I have borne him six sons: and therefore she called his name Zabulon.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 21 After whom she bore a daughter, named Dina.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 22 The Lord also remembering Rachel, heard her, and opened her womb.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 23 And she conceived, and bore a son, saying: God hath taken away my reproach.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 24 And she called his name Joseph: saying: The Lord give me also another son.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 25 And when Joseph was born, Jacob said to his father-in-law: Send me away, that I may return into my country, and to my land.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 26 Give me my wives, and my children, for whom I have served thee, that I may depart: thou knowest the service that I have rendered thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 27 Laban said to him: Let me find favour in thy sight: I have learned, by experience, that God hath blessed me for thy sake.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 28 Appoint thy wages which I shall give thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 29 But he answered: Thou knowest how I have served thee, and how great thy possession hath been in my hands.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 30 Thou hadst but little before I came to thee, and now thou art become rich: and the Lord hath blessed thee at my coming. It is reasonable, therefore, that I should now provide also for my own house.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 31 And Laban said: What shall I give thee? But he said: I require nothing; but if thou wilt do what I demand, I will feed and keep thy sheep again.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 32 Go round through all thy flocks, and separate all the sheep of divers colours, and speckled; and all that is brown and spotted, and of divers colours, as well among the sheep as among the goats, shall be my wages.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 33 And my justice shall answer for me tomorrow before thee, when the time of the bargain shall come; and all that is not of divers colours, and spotted, and brown, as well among the sheep as among the goats, shall accuse me of theft.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 34 And Laban said: I like well what thou demandest.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 35 And he separated the same day the she-goats, and the sheep, and the he-goats, and the rams of divers colours, and spotted; and all the flock of one colour, that is, of white and black fleece, he delivered into the hands of his sons.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 36 And he set the space of three days journey betwixt himself and his son-in-law, who fed the rest of his flock.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 37 And Jacob took green rods of poplar, and of almond, and of plane-trees, and pilled them in part: so when the bark was taken off, in the parts that were pilled, there appeared whiteness: but the parts that were whole, remained green: and by this means the colour was divers.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 38 And he put them in the troughs, where the water was poured out; that when the flocks should come to drink, they might have the rods before their eyes, and in the sight of them might conceive.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 39 And it came to pass, that in the very heat of coition, the sheep beheld the rods, and brought forth spotted, and of divers colours, and speckled.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 40 And Jacob separated the flock, and put the rods in the troughs before the eyes of the rams; and all the white and the black were Laban’s, and the rest were Jacob’s, when the flocks were separated one from the other.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 41 So when the ewes went first to ram, Jacob put the rods in the troughs of water before the eyes of the rams, and of the ewes, that they might conceive while they were looking upon them.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 42 But when the later coming was, and the last conceiving, he did not put them. And those that were lateward, became Laban’s; and they of the first time, Jacob’s.
+Genesis Gen 1 30 43 And the man was enriched exceedingly, and he had many flocks, maid-servants and men-servants, camels and asses.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 1 But after that he had heard the words of the sons of Laban, saying: Jacob hath taken away all that was our father’s, and being enriched by his substance is become great.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 2 And perceiving also, that Laban’s countenance was not towards him as yesterday and the other day.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 3 Especially the Lord saying to him: Return into the land of thy fathers and to thy kindred, and I will be with thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 4 He sent, and called Rachel and Lia into the field, where he fed the flocks,
+Genesis Gen 1 31 5 And said to them: I see your father’s countenance is not towards me as yesterday and the other day: but the God of my father hath been with me.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 6 And you know that I have served your father to the uttermost of my power.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 7 Yea your father hath also overreached me, and hath changed my wages ten times: and yet God hath not suffered him to hurt me.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 8 If at any time, he said: The speckled shall be thy wages: all the sheep brought forth speckled: but when he said on the contrary: Thou shalt take all the white one for thy wages: all the flocks brought forth white ones.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 9 And God hath taken your father’s substance, and given it to me.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 10 For after the time came of the ewes conceiving, I lifted up my eyes, and saw in my sleep, that the males which leaped upon the females were of divers colours, and spotted, and speckled.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 11 And the angel of God said to me in my sleep: Jacob. And I answered: Here I am.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 12 And he said: Lift up thy eyes, and see that all the males leaping upon the females, are of divers colours, spotted and speckled. For I have seen all that Laban hath done to thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 13 I am the God of Bethel, where thou didst anoint the stone, and make a vow to me. Now therefore arise, and go out of this land, and return into thy native country.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 14 And Rachel and Lia answered: Have we any thing left among the goods and inheritance of our father’s house?
+Genesis Gen 1 31 15 Hath he not counted us as strangers, and sold us, and eaten up the price of us?
+Genesis Gen 1 31 16 But God hath taken our father’s riches, and delivered them to us, and to our children: wherefore, do all that God hath commanded thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 17 Then Jacob rose up, and having set his children and wives upon camels, went his way.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 18 And he took all his substance, and flocks, and whatsoever he had gotten in Mesopotamia, and went forward to Isaac, his father, to the land of Chanaan.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 19 At that time Laban was gone to shear his sheep, and Rachel stole away her father’s idols.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 20 And Jacob would not confess to his father-in-law that he was flying away.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 21 And when he was gone, together with all that belonged to him, and having passed the river, was going on towards mount Galaad,
+Genesis Gen 1 31 22 It was told Laban on the third day, that Jacob fled.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 23 And he took his brethren with him, and pursued after him seven days; and overtook him in the mount of Galaad.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 24 And he saw in a dream God, saying to him: Take heed thou speak not any thing harshly against Jacob.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 25 Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mountain: and when he, with his brethren, had overtaken him, he pitched his tent in the same mount of Galaad.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 26 And he said to Jacob: Why hast thou done thus, to carry away, without my knowledge, my daughters as captives taken with the sword?
+Genesis Gen 1 31 27 Why wouldst thou run away privately, and not acquaint me, that I might have brought thee on the way with joy, and with songs, and with timbrels, and with harps?
+Genesis Gen 1 31 28 Thou hast not suffered me to kiss my sons and daughters; thou hast done foolishly; and now indeed,
+Genesis Gen 1 31 29 It is in my power to return thee evil; but the God of your father said to me yesterday: Take heed thou speak not any thing harshly against Jacob.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 30 Suppose thou didst desire to go to thy friends, and hadst a longing after thy father’s house: why hast thou stolen away my gods?
+Genesis Gen 1 31 31 Jacob answered: That I departed unknown to thee, it was for fear lest thou wouldst take away thy daughters by force.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 32 But, whereas, thou chargest me with theft: with whomsoever thou shalt find thy gods, let him be slain before our brethren. Search, and if thou find any of thy things with me, take them away. Now when he said this, he knew not that Rachel had stolen the idols.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 33 So Laban went into the tent of Jacob, and of Lia, and of both the handmaids, and found them not. And when he was entered into Rachel’s tent,
+Genesis Gen 1 31 34 She, in haste, hid the idols under the camel’s furniture, and sat upon them: and when he had searched all the tent, and found nothing,
+Genesis Gen 1 31 35 She said: Let not my lord be angry that I cannot rise up before thee, because it has now happened to me according to the custom of women. So his careful search was in vain.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 36 And Jacob being angry, said in a chiding manner: For what fault of mine, and for what offence on my part hast thou so hotly pursued me,
+Genesis Gen 1 31 37 And searched all my household stuff? What hast thou found of all the substance of thy house? lay it here before my brethren, and thy brethren, and let them judge between me and thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 38 Have I, therefore, been with thee twenty years? thy ewes and goats were not barren, the rams of thy flocks I did not eat:
+Genesis Gen 1 31 39 Neither did I shew thee that which the beast had torn; I made good all the damage: whatsoever was lost by theft, thou didst exact it of me:
+Genesis Gen 1 31 40 Day and night was I parched with heat, and with frost, and sleep departed from my eyes.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 41 And in this manner have I served thee in thy house twenty years, fourteen for thy daughters, and six for thy flocks: thou hast changed also my wages ten times.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 42 Unless the God of my father, Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, had stood by me, peradventure now thou hadst sent me away naked: God beheld my affliction and the labour of my hands, and rebuked thee yesterday.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 43 Laban answered him: The daughters are mine, and the children, and thy flocks, and all things that thou seest are mine: what can I do to my children, and grandchildren?
+Genesis Gen 1 31 44 Come, therefore, let us enter into a league; that it may be for a testimony between me and thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 45 And Jacob took a stone, and set it up for a title.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 46 And he said to his brethren: Bring hither stones. And they, gathering stones together, made a heap, and they ate upon it.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 47 And Laban called it, The witness heap; and Jacob, The hillock of testimony: each of them according to the propriety of his language.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 48 And Laban said: This heap shall be a witness between me and thee this day, and therefore the name thereof was called Galaad, that is, The witness heap.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 49 The Lord behold and judge between us, when we shall be gone one from the other.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 50 If thou afflict my daughters, and if thou bring in other wives over them: none is witness of our speech but God, who is present and beholdeth.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 51 And he said again to Jacob: Behold this heap, and the stone which I have set up between me and thee,
+Genesis Gen 1 31 52 Shall be a witness: this heap, I say, and the stone, be they for a testimony, if either I shall pass beyond it going towards thee, or thou shalt pass beyond it thinking harm to me.
+Genesis Gen 1 31 53 The God of Abraham, and the God of Nachor, the God of their father, judge between us. And Jacob swore by the fear of his father Isaac:
+Genesis Gen 1 31 54 And after he had offered sacrifices in the mountain, he called his brethren to eat bread. And when they had eaten, they lodged there:
+Genesis Gen 1 31 55 But Laban arose in the night, and kissed his sons and daughters, and blessed them: and returned to his place.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 1 Jacob also went on the journey he had begun: and the angels of God met him.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 2 And when he saw them, he said: These are the camps of God, and he called the name of that place Mahanaim, that is, Camps.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 3 And he sent messengers before him to Esau, his brother, to the land of Seir, to the country of Edom:
+Genesis Gen 1 32 4 And he commanded them, saying: Thus shall ye speak to my lord Esau: Thus saith thy brother Jacob: I have sojourned with Laban, and have been with him until this day:
+Genesis Gen 1 32 5 I have oxen, and asses, and sheep, and menservants, and womenservants: and now I send a message to my lord, that I may find favour in thy sight.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 6 And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying: We came to Esau, thy brother, and behold he cometh with speed to meet thee with four hundred men.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 7 Then Jacob was greatly afraid; and in his fear divided the people that was with him, and the flocks, and the sheep, and the oxen, and the camels, into two companies,
+Genesis Gen 1 32 8 Saying: If Esau come to one company, and destroy it, the other company that is left, shall escape.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 9 And Jacob said: O God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac: O Lord who saidst to me, Return to thy land, and to the place of thy birth, and I will do well for thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 10 I am not worthy of the least of all thy mercies, and of thy truth which thou hast fulfilled to thy servant. With my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I return with two companies.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 11 Deliver me from the hand of my brother Esau, for I am greatly afraid of him; lest perhaps he come, and kill the mother with the children.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 12 Thou didst say, that thou wouldst do well by me, and multiply my seed like the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 13 And when he had slept there that night, he set apart, of the things which he had, presents for his brother Esau,
+Genesis Gen 1 32 14 Two hundred she-goats, twenty he-goats, two hundred ewes, and twenty rams,
+Genesis Gen 1 32 15 Thirty milch camels with their colts, forty kine, and twenty bulls, twenty she-asses, and ten of their foals.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 16 And he sent them by the hands of his servants, every drove by itself, and he said to his servants: Go before me, and let there be a space between drove and drove.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 17 And he commanded the first, saying: If thou meet my brother Esau, and he ask thee: Whose art thou? or whither goest thou? or whose are these before thee?
+Genesis Gen 1 32 18 Thou shalt answer: Thy servant Jacob’s: he hath sent them as a present to my lord Esau; and he cometh after us.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 19 In like manner he commanded the second, and the third, and all that followed the droves, saying: Speak ye the same words to Esau, when ye find him.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 20 And ye shall add: Thy servant Jacob himself also followeth after us; for he said: I will appease him with the presents that go before, and afterwards I will see him, perhaps he will be gracious to me.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 21 So the presents went before him, but himself lodged that night in the camp.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 22 And rising early, he took his two wives and his two handmaids, with his eleven sons, and passed over the ford of Jaboc.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 23 And when all things were brought over that belonged to him,
+Genesis Gen 1 32 24 He remained alone; and behold, a man wrestled with him till morning.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 25 And when he saw that he could not overcome him, he touched the sinew of his thigh, and forthwith it shrank.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 26 And he said to him: Let me go, for it is break of day. He answered: I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 27 And he said: What is thy name? He answered: Jacob.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 28 But he said: Thy name shall not be called Jacob, but Israel; for if thou hast been strong against God, how much more shalt thou prevail against men?
+Genesis Gen 1 32 29 Jacob asked him: Tell me by what name art thou called? He answered: Why dost thou ask my name? And he blessed him in the same place.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 30 And Jacob called the name of the place Phanuel, saying: I have seen God face to face, and my soul has been saved.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 31 And immediately the sun rose upon him, after he was past Phanuel; but he halted on his foot.
+Genesis Gen 1 32 32 Therefore the children of Israel, unto this day, eat not the sinew, that shrank in Jacob’s thigh: because he touched the sinew of his thigh and it shrank.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 1 And Jacob lifting up his eyes, saw Esau coming, and with him four hundred men: and he divided the children of Lia and of Rachel, and of the two handmaids.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 2 And he put both the handmaids and their children foremost: and Lia and her children in the second place: and Rachel and Joseph last.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 3 And he went forward and bowed down with his face to the ground seven times, until his brother came near.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 4 Then Esau ran to meet his brother, and embraced him: and clasping him fast about the neck, and kissing him, wept.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 5 And lifting up his eyes, he saw the women and their children, and said: What mean these? And do they belong to thee? He answered: They are the children which God hath given to me, thy servant.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 6 Then the handmaids and their children came near and bowed themselves.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 7 Lia also, with her children, came near and bowed down in like manner; and last of all, Joseph and Rachel bowed down.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 8 And Esau said: What are the droves that I met? He answered: That I might find favour before my lord.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 9 But he said: I have plenty, my brother, keep what is thine for thyself.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 10 And Jacob said: Do not so I beseech thee, but if I have found favour in thy eyes, receive a little present at my hands: for I have seen thy face, as if I should have seen the countenance of God: be gracious to me,
+Genesis Gen 1 33 11 And take the blessing which I have brought thee, and which God hath given me, who giveth all things. He took it with much ado at his brother’s earnest pressing him,
+Genesis Gen 1 33 12 And said: Let us go on together, and I will accompany thee in thy journey.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 13 And Jacob said: My lord, thou knowest that I have with me tender children, and sheep, and kine with young: which if I should cause to be overdriven, in one day all the flocks will die.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 14 May it please my lord to go before his servant: and I will follow softly after him, as I shall see my children to be able, until I come to my lord in Seir.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 15 Esau answered: I beseech thee, that some of the people, at least, who are with me, may stay to accompany thee in the way. And he said: There is no necessity: I want nothing else but only to find favour, my lord, in thy sight.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 16 So Esau returned that day, the way that he came, to Seir.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 17 And Jacob came to Socoth: where having built a house, and pitched tents, he called the name of the place Socoth, that is, Tents.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 18 And he passed over to Salem, a city of the Sichemites, which is in the land of Chanaan, after he returned from Mesopotamia of Syria: and he dwelt by the town.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 19 And he bought that part of the field, in which he pitched his tents, of the children of Hemor, the father of Sichem, for a hundred lambs.
+Genesis Gen 1 33 20 And raising an altar there, he invoked upon it the most mighty God of Israel.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 1 And Dina the daughter of Lia went out to see the women of that country.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 2 And when Sichem the son of Hemor the Hevite, the prince of that land, saw her, he was in love with her: and took her away, and lay with her, ravishing the virgin.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 3 And his soul was fast knit unto her; and whereas she was sad, he comforted her with sweet words.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 4 And going to Hemor his father, he said: Get me this damsel to wife.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 5 But when Jacob had heard this, his sons being absent, and employed in feeding the cattle, he held his peace till they came back.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 6 And when Hemor the father of Sichem was come out to speak to Jacob,
+Genesis Gen 1 34 7 Behold his sons came from the field: and hearing what had passed, they were exceeding angry, because he had done a foul thing in Israel, and committed an unlawful act, in ravishing Jacob’s daughter.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 8 And Hemor spoke to them: The soul of my son Sichem has a longing for your daughter: give her him to wife:
+Genesis Gen 1 34 9 And let us contract marriages one with another: give us your daughters, and take you our daughters.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 10 And dwell with us: the land is at your command, till, trade, and possess it.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 11 Sichem also said to her father and to her brethren: Let me find favour in your sight, and whatsoever you shall appoint I will give:
+Genesis Gen 1 34 12 Raise the dowry, and ask gifts, and I will gladly give what you shall demand: only give me this damsel to wife.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 13 The sons of Jacob answered Sichem and his father deceitfully, being enraged at the deflowering of their sister:
+Genesis Gen 1 34 14 We cannot do what you demand, nor give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; which with us is unlawful and abominable.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 15 But in this we may be allied with you, if you will be like us, and all the male sex among you be circumcised:
+Genesis Gen 1 34 16 Then will we mutually give and take your daughters, and ours; and we will dwell with you, and will be one people:
+Genesis Gen 1 34 17 But if you will not be circumcised, we will take our daughter and depart.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 18 Their offer pleased Hemor, and Sichem, his son:
+Genesis Gen 1 34 19 And the young man made no delay, but forthwith fulfilled what was required: for he loved the damsel exceedingly, and he was the greatest man in all his father’s house.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 20 And going into the gate of the city, they spoke to the people:
+Genesis Gen 1 34 21 These men are peaceable, and are willing to dwell with us: let them trade in the land, and till it, which being large and wide wanteth men to till it: we shall take their daughters for wives, and we will give them ours.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 22 One thing there is for which so great a good is deferred: We must circumcise every male among us, following the manner of the nation.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 23 And their substance, and cattle, and all that they possess, shall be ours; only in this let us condescend, and by dwelling together, we shall make one people.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 24 And they all agreed, and circumcised all the males.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 25 And behold the third day, when the pain of the wound was greatest: two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, the brothers of Dina, taking their swords, entered boldly into the city and slew all the men.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 26 And they killed also Hemor and Sichem, and took away their sister Dina out of Sichem’s house.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 27 And when they were gone out, the other sons of Jacob came upon the slain; and plundered the city in revenge of the rape.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 28 And they took their sheep, and their herds, and their asses, wasting all they had in their houses and in their fields.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 29 And their children and wives they took captive.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 30 And when they had boldly perpetrated these things, Jacob said to Simeon and Levi: You have troubled me, and made me hateful to the Chanaanites and Pherezites, the inhabitants of this land. We are few: they will gather themselves together and kill me; and both I, and my house shall be destroyed.
+Genesis Gen 1 34 31 They answered: Should they abuse our sister as a strumpet?
+Genesis Gen 1 35 1 In the mean time God said to Jacob: Arise and go up to Bethel, and dwell there, and make there an altar to God, who appeared to thee when thou didst flee from Esau, thy brother.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 2 And Jacob having called together all his household, said: Cast away the strange gods that are among you, and be cleansed, and change your garments.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 3 Arise, and let us go up to Bethel, that we may make there an altar to God; who heard me in the day of my affliction, and accompained me in my journey.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 4 So they gave him all the strange gods they had, and the earrings which were in their ears: and he buried them under the turpentine tree, that is behind the city of Sichem.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 5 And when they were departed, the terror of God fell upon all the cities round about, and they durst not pursue after them as they went away.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 6 And Jacob came to Luza, which is in the land of Chanaan, surnamed Bethel: he and all the people that were with him.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 7 And he built there an altar, and called the name of that place, The house of God: for there God appeared to him when he fled from his brother.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 8 At the same time Debora, the nurse of Rebecca, died, and was buried at the foot of Bethel, under an oak, and the name of that place was called, The oak of weeping.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 9 And God appeared again to Jacob, after he returned from Mesopotamia of Syria, and he blessed him,
+Genesis Gen 1 35 10 Saying: Thou shalt not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name. And he called him Israel.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 11 And said to him: I am God almighty, increase thou and be multiplied. Nations and peoples of nations shall be from thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 12 And the land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give to thee, and to thy seed after thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 13 And he departed from him.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 14 But he set up a monument of stone, in the place where God had spoken to him: pouring drink-offerings upon it, and pouring oil thereon:
+Genesis Gen 1 35 15 And calling the name of that place Bethel.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 16 And going forth from thence, he came in the spring time to the land which leadeth to Ephrata: wherein when Rachel was in travail,
+Genesis Gen 1 35 17 By reason of her hard labour, she began to be in danger, and the midwife said to her: Fear not, for thou shalt have this son also.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 18 And when her soul was departing for pain, and death was now at hand, she called the name of her son Benoni, that is, the son of my pain: but his father called him Benjamin, that is, the son of the right hand.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 19 So Rachel died, and was buried in the highway that leadeth to Ephrata, this is Bethlehem.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 20 And Jacob erected a pillar over her sepulchre: this is the pillar of Rachel’s monument, to this day.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 21 Departing thence, he pitched his tent beyond the Flock tower.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 22 And when he dwelt in that country, Ruben went, and slept with Bala the concubine of his father: which he was not ignorant of. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 23 The sons of Lia: Ruben the first born, and Simeon, and Levi, and Juda, and Issachar, and Zabulon.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 24 The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 25 The sons of Bala, Rachel’s handmaid: Dan and Nephthali.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 26 The sons of Zelpha, Lia’s handmaid: Gad and Aser: these are the sons of Jacob, that were born to him in Mesopotamia of Syria.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 27 And he came to Isaac his father in Mambre, the city of Arbee, this is Hebron: wherein Abraham and Isaac sojourned.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 28 And the days of Isaac were a hundred and eighty years.
+Genesis Gen 1 35 29 And being spent with age he died, and was gathered to his people, being old and full of days: and his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 1 And these are the generations of Esau, the same is Edom.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 2 Esau took wives of the daughters of Chanaan: Ada the daughter of Elon the Hethite, and Oolibama the daughter of Ana, the daughter of Sebeon the Hevite:
+Genesis Gen 1 36 3 And Basemath, the daughter of Ismael, sister of Nabajoth.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 4 And Ada bore Eliphaz: Basemath bore Rahuel.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 5 Oolibama bore Jehus, and Ihelon, and Core. These are the sons of Esau, that were born to him in the land of Chanaan.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 6 And Esau took his wives, and his sons and daughters, and every soul of his house, and his substance, and cattle, and all that he was able to acquire in the land of Chanaan: and went into another country, and departed from his brother Jacob.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 7 For they were exceeding rich, and could not dwell together: neither was the land in which they sojourned able to bear them, for the multitude of their flocks.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 8 And Esau dwelt in mount Seir: he is Edom.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 9 And these are the generations of Esau, the father of Edom, in mount Seir.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 10 And these the names of his sons: Eliphaz the son of Ada, the wife of Esau: and Rahuel, the son of Basemath, his wife.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 11 And Eliphaz had sons: Theman, Omar, Sepho, and Gatham and Cenez.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 12 And Thamna was the concubine of Eliphaz, the son of Esau: and she bore him Amalech. These are the sons of Ada, the wife of Esau.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 13 And the sons of Rahuel were Nahath and Zara, Samma and Meza. These were the sons of Basemath, the wife of Esau.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 14 And these were the sons of Oolibama, the daughter of Ana, the daughter of Sebeon, the wife of Esau, whom she bore to him, Jehus, and Ihelon, and Core.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 15 These were dukes of the sons of Esau: the sons of Eliphaz, the firstborn of Esau: duke Theman, duke Omar, duke Sepho, duke Cenez,
+Genesis Gen 1 36 16 Duke Core, duke Gatham, duke Amalech: these are the sons of Eliphaz, in the land of Edom, and these the sons of Ada.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 17 And these were the sons of Rahuel, the son of Esau: duke Nahath, duke Zara, duke Samma, duke Meza. And these are the dukes of Rahuel, in the land of Edom: these the sons of Basemath, the wife of Esau.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 18 And these the sons of Oolibama, the wife of Esau: duke Jehus, duke Ihelon, duke Core. These are the dukes of Oolibama, the daughter of Ana, and wife of Esau.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 19 These are the sons of Esau, and these the dukes of them: the same is Edom.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 20 These are the sons of Seir, the Horrite, the inhabitants of the land: Lotan, and Sobal, and Sebeon, and Ana,
+Genesis Gen 1 36 21 And Dison, and Eser, and Disan. These are dukes of the Horrites, the sons of Seir, in the land of Edom.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 22 And Lotan had sons: Hori and Heman. And the sister of Lotan was Thamna.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 23 And these the sons of Sobal: Alvan, and Manahat, and Ebal, and Sepho, and Onam.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 24 And these the sons of Sebeon: Aia and Ana. This is Ana that found the hot waters in the wilderness, when he fed the asses of Sebeon, his father:
+Genesis Gen 1 36 25 And he had a son Dison, and a daughter Oolibama.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 26 And these were the sons of Dison: Hamdan, and Eseban, and Jethram, and Charan.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 27 These also were the sons of Eser: Balaan, and Zavan, and Acan.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 28 And Dison had sons: Hus and Aram.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 29 These were dukes of the Horrites: duke Lotan, duke Sobal, duke Sebeon, duke Ana,
+Genesis Gen 1 36 30 Duke Dison, duke Eser, duke Disan: these were dukes of the Horrites that ruled in the land of Seir.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 31 And the kings that ruled in the land of Edom, before the children of Israel had a king, were these:
+Genesis Gen 1 36 32 Bela the son of Beor, and the name of his city Denaba.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 33 And Bela died, and Jobab, the son of Zara, of Bosra, reigned in his stead.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 34 And when Jobab was dead, Husam, of the land of the Themanites, reigned in his stead.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 35 And after his death, Adad, the son of Badad, reigned in his stead, who defeated the Madianites in the country of Moab; and the name of his city was Avith.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 36 And when Adad was dead, there reigned in his stead, Semla, of Masreca.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 37 And he being dead, Saul, of the river Rohoboth, reigned in his stead.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 38 And when he also was dead, Balanan, the son of Achobor, succeeded to the kingdom.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 39 This man also being dead, Adar reigned in his place; and the name of his city was Phau: and his wife was called Meetabel, the daughter of Matred, daughter of Mezaab.
+Genesis Gen 1 36 40 And these are the names of the dukes of Esau in their kindreds, and places, and callings: duke Thamna, duke Alva, duke Jetheth,
+Genesis Gen 1 36 41 Duke Oolibama, duke Ela, duke Phinon,
+Genesis Gen 1 36 42 Duke Cenez, duke Theman, duke Mabsar,
+Genesis Gen 1 36 43 Duke Magdiel, duke Hiram: these are the dukes of Edom dwelling in the land of their government; the same is Esau, the father of the Edomites.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 1 And Jacob dwelt in the land of Chanaan, wherein his father sojourned.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 2 And these are his generations: Joseph, when he was sixteen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren, being but a boy: and he was with the sons of Bala and of Zelpha his father’s wives: and he accused his brethren to his father of a most wicked crime.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 3 Now Israel loved Joseph above all his sons, because he had him in his old age: and he made him a coat of divers colours.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 4 And his brethren seeing that he was loved by his father, more than all his sons, hated him, and could not speak peaceably to him.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 5 Now it fell out also that he told his brethren a dream, that he had dreamed: which occasioned them to hate him the more.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 6 And he said to them: Hear my dream which I dreamed.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 7 I thought we were binding sheaves in the field: and my sheaf arose as it were, and stood, and your sheaves standing about bowed down before my sheaf.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 8 His brethren answered: Shalt thou be our king? or shall we be subject to thy dominion? Therefore this matter of his dreams and words ministered nourishment to their envy and hatred.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 9 He dreamed also another dream, which he told his brethren, saying: I saw in a dream, as it were the sun, and the moon, and eleven stars worshipping me.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 10 And when he had told this to his father, and brethren, his father rebuked him and said: What meaneth this dream that thou hast dreamed? shall I and thy mother, and thy brethren worship thee upon the earth?
+Genesis Gen 1 37 11 His brethren therefore envied him: but his father considered the thing with himself.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 12 And when his brethren abode in Sechem, feeding their father’s flocks,
+Genesis Gen 1 37 13 Israel said to him: Thy brethren feed the sheep in Sichem: come, I will send thee to them. And when he answered:
+Genesis Gen 1 37 14 I am ready: he said to him: Go, and see if all things be well with thy brethren, and the cattle: and bring me word again what is doing. So being sent from the vale of Hebron, he came to Sichem:
+Genesis Gen 1 37 15 And a man found him there wandering in the field, and asked what he sought.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 16 But he answered: I seek my brethren, tell me where they feed the flocks.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 17 And the man said to him: They are departed from this place: for I heard them say: Let us go to Dothain. And Joseph went forward after his brethren, and found them in Dothain.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 18 And when they saw him afar off, before he came nigh them, they thought to kill him:
+Genesis Gen 1 37 19 And said one to another: Behold the dreamer cometh.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 20 Come, let us kill him, and cast him into some old pit: and we will say: Some evil beast hath devoured him: and then it shall appear what his dreams avail him:
+Genesis Gen 1 37 21 And Ruben hearing this, endeavoured to deliver him out of their hands, and said:
+Genesis Gen 1 37 22 Do not take away his life, nor shed his blood: but cast him into this pit, that is in the wilderness, and keep your hands harmless: now he said this, being desirous to deliver him out of their hands and to restore him to his father.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 23 And as soon as he came to his brethren, they forthwith stript him of his outside coat, that was of divers colours:
+Genesis Gen 1 37 24 And cast him into an old pit where there was not water.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 25 And sitting down to eat bread, they saw some Ismaelites on their way coming from Galaad, with their camels, carrying spices, and balm, and myrrh to Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 26 And Juda said to his brethren: What will it profit us to kill our brother, and conceal his blood?
+Genesis Gen 1 37 27 It is better that he be sold to the Ismaelites, and that our hands be not defiled: for he is our brother and our flesh. His brethren agreed to his words.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 28 And when the Madianite merchants passed by, they drew him out of the pit, and sold him to the Ismaelites, for twenty pieces of silver: and they led him into Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 29 And Ruben returning to the pit, found not the boy:
+Genesis Gen 1 37 30 And rending his garments he went to his brethren, and said: The boy doth not appear, and whither shall I go?
+Genesis Gen 1 37 31 And they took his coat, and dipped it in the blood of a kid, which they had killed:
+Genesis Gen 1 37 32 Sending some to carry it to their father, and to say: This we have found: see whether it be thy son’s coat, or not.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 33 And the father acknowledging it, said: It is my son’s coat, an evil wild beast hath eaten him, a beast hath devoured Joseph.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 34 And tearing his garments, he put on sackcloth, mourning for his son a long time.
+Genesis Gen 1 37 35 And all his children being gathered together to comfort their father in his sorrow, he would not receive comfort, but said: I will go down to my son into hell, mourning. And whilst he continued weeping,
+Genesis Gen 1 37 36 The Madianites sold Joseph in Egypt to Putiphar, an eunuch of Pharao, captain of the soldiers.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 1 At that time Juda went down from his brethren, and turned in to a certain Odollamite, named Hiras.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 2 And he saw there the daughter of a man of Chanaan, called Sue: and taking her to wife, he went in unto her.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 3 And she conceived, and bore a son, and called his name Her.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 4 And conceiving again, she bore a son, and called him Onan.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 5 She bore also a third: whom she called Sela. After whose birth, she ceased to bear any more.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 6 And Juda took a wife for Her, his first born, whose name was Thamar.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 7 And Her, the first born of Juda, was wicked in the sight of the Lord: and was slain by him.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 8 Juda, therefore, said to Onan his son: Go in to thy brother’s wife and marry her, that thou mayst raise seed to thy brother.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 9 He knowing that the children should not be his, when he went in to his brother’s wife, he spilled his seed upon the ground, lest children should be born in his brother’s name.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 10 And therefore the Lord slew him, because he did a detestable thing:
+Genesis Gen 1 38 11 Wherefore Juda said to Thamar his daughter-in-law: Remain a widow in thy father’s house, till Sela my son grow up: for he was afraid lest he also might die, as his brethren did. She went her way, and dwelt in her father’s house.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 12 And after many days were past: the daughter of Sue the wife of Juda died: and when he had taken comfort after his mourning, he went up to Thamnas, to the shearers of his sheep, he and Hiras the Odollamite, the shepherd of his flock.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 13 And it was told Thamar that her father-in-law was come up to Thamnas to shear his sheep.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 14 And she put off the garments of her widowhood, and took a veil: and changing her dress, sat in the cross way, that leadeth to Thamnas: because Sela was grown up, and she had not been married to him.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 15 When Juda saw her, he thought she was a harlot: for she had covered her face, lest she should be known.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 16 And going to her, he said: Suffer me to lie with thee: for he knew her not to be his daughter-in-law. And she answered: What wilt thou give me to enjoy my company?
+Genesis Gen 1 38 17 He said: I will send thee a kid out of the flock. And when she said again: I will suffer what thou wilt, if thou give me a pledge, till thou send what thou promisest.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 18 Juda said: What wilt thou have for a pledge? She answered: Thy ring and bracelet, and the staff which thou holdest in thy hand. The woman therefore at one copulation conceived.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 19 And she arose and went her way: and putting off the apparel which she had taken, put on the garments of her widowhood.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 20 And Juda sent a kid by his shepherd, the Odollamite, that he might receive the pledge again, which he had given to the woman: but he, not finding her,
+Genesis Gen 1 38 21 Asked the men of that place: Where is the woman that sat in the cross way? And when they all made answer: There was no harlot in this place,
+Genesis Gen 1 38 22 He returned to Juda, and said to him: I have not found her; moreover, the men of that place said to me, that there never sat a harlot there.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 23 Juda said: Let her take it to herself, surely she cannot charge us with a lie, I sent the kid which I promised: and thou didst not find her.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 24 And behold, after three months, they told Juda, saying: Thamar, thy daughter-in-law, hath played the harlot, and she appeareth to have a big belly. And Juda said: Bring her out that she may be burnt.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 25 But when she was led to execution, she sent to her father in law, saying: By the man, to whom these things belong, I am with child. See whose ring, and bracelet, and staff this is.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 26 But he acknowledging the gifts, said: She is juster than I: because I did not give her to Sela, my son. However he knew her no more.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 27 And when she was ready to be brought to bed, there appeared twins in her womb: and in the very delivery of the infants, one put forth a hand, whereon the midwife tied a scarlet thread, saying:
+Genesis Gen 1 38 28 This shall come forth the first.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 29 But he drawing back his hand, the other came forth: and the woman said: Why is the partition divided for thee? and therefore called his name Phares.
+Genesis Gen 1 38 30 Afterwards his brother came out, on whose hand was the scarlet thread: and she called his name Zara.
+Genesis Gen 1 39 1 And Joseph was brought into Egypt, and Putiphar, an eunuch of Pharao, chief captain of the army, an Egyptian, bought him of the Ismaelites, by whom he was brought.
+Genesis Gen 1 39 2 And the Lord was with him, and he was a prosperous man in all things: and he dwelt in his master’s house:
+Genesis Gen 1 39 3 Who knew very well that the Lord was with him, and made all that he did to prosper in his hand.
+Genesis Gen 1 39 4 And Joseph found favour in the sight of his master, and ministered to him: and being set over all by him, he governed the house committed to him, and all things that were delivered to him:
+Genesis Gen 1 39 5 And the Lord blessed the house of the Egyptian for Joseph’s sake, and multiplied all his substance, both at home and in the fields.
+Genesis Gen 1 39 6 Neither knew he any other thing, but the bread which he ate. And Joseph was of a beautiful countenance, and comely to behold.
+Genesis Gen 1 39 7 And after many days, his mistress cast her eyes on Joseph, and said: Lie with me.
+Genesis Gen 1 39 8 But he in no wise consenting to that wicked act said to her: Behold, my master hath delivered all things to me, and knoweth not what he hath in his own house:
+Genesis Gen 1 39 9 Neither is there any thing which is not in my power, or that he hath not delivered to me, but thee, who art his wife; how then can I do this wicked thing, and sin against my God?
+Genesis Gen 1 39 10 With such words as these day by day, both the woman was importunate with the young man, and he refused the adultery.
+Genesis Gen 1 39 11 Now it happened on a certain day, that Joseph went into the house, and was doing some business, without any man with him:
+Genesis Gen 1 39 12 And she catching the skirt of his garment, said: Lie with me. But he leaving the garment in her hand, fled, and went out.
+Genesis Gen 1 39 13 And when the woman saw the garment in her hands, and herself disregarded,
+Genesis Gen 1 39 14 She called to her the men of her house, and said to them: See, he hath brought in a Hebrew, to abuse us: he came in to me, to lie with me; and when I cried out,
+Genesis Gen 1 39 15 And he heard my voice, he left the garment that I held, and got him out.
+Genesis Gen 1 39 16 For a proof therefore of her fidelity, she kept the garment, and shewed it to her husband when he returned home:
+Genesis Gen 1 39 17 And said: The Hebrew servant, whom thou hast brought, came to me to abuse me.
+Genesis Gen 1 39 18 And when he heard me cry, he left the garment which I held, and fled out.
+Genesis Gen 1 39 19 His master hearing these things, and giving too much credit to his wife’s words, was very angry,
+Genesis Gen 1 39 20 And cast Joseph into the prison, where the king’s prisoners were kept, and he was there shut up.
+Genesis Gen 1 39 21 But the Lord was with Joseph, and having mercy upon him gave him favour in the sight of the chief keeper of the prison:
+Genesis Gen 1 39 22 Who delivered into his hand all the prisoners that were kept in custody: and whatsoever was done, was under him.
+Genesis Gen 1 39 23 Neither did he himself know any thing, having committed all things to him: for the Lord was with him, and made all that he did to prosper.
+Genesis Gen 1 40 1 After this, it came to pass, that two eunuchs, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, offended their lord.
+Genesis Gen 1 40 2 And Pharao being angry with them, (now the one was chief butler, the other chief baker,)
+Genesis Gen 1 40 3 He sent them to the prison of the commander of the soldiers, in which Joseph also was prisoner.
+Genesis Gen 1 40 4 But the keeper of the prison delivered them to Joseph, and he served them. Some little time passed, and they were kept in custody.
+Genesis Gen 1 40 5 And they both dreamed a dream the same night, according to the interpretation agreeing to themselves:
+Genesis Gen 1 40 6 And when Joseph was come into them in the morning, and saw them sad,
+Genesis Gen 1 40 7 He asked them, saying: Why is your countenance sadder today than usual?
+Genesis Gen 1 40 8 They answered: We have dreamed a dream, and there is nobody to interpret it to us. And Joseph said to them: Doth not interpretation belong to God? Tell me what you have dreamed:
+Genesis Gen 1 40 9 The chief butler first told his dream: I saw before me a vine,
+Genesis Gen 1 40 10 On which were three branches, which by little and little sent out buds, and after the blossoms brought forth ripe grapes:
+Genesis Gen 1 40 11 And the cup of Pharao was in my hand: and I took the grapes, and pressed them into the cup which I held, and I gave the cup to Pharao.
+Genesis Gen 1 40 12 Joseph answered: This is the interpretation of the dream: The three branches, are yet three days:
+Genesis Gen 1 40 13 After which Pharao will remember thy service, and will restore thee to thy former place: and thou shalt present him the cup according to thy office, as before thou was wont to do.
+Genesis Gen 1 40 14 Only remember me when it shall be well with thee, and do me this kindness: to put Pharao in mind to take me out of this prison:
+Genesis Gen 1 40 15 For I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews, and here without any fault was cast into the dungeon.
+Genesis Gen 1 40 16 The chief baker seeing that he had wisely interpreted the dream, said: I also dreamed a dream, That I had three baskets of meal upon my head:
+Genesis Gen 1 40 17 And that in one basket which was uppermost, I carried all meats that are made by the art of baking, and that the birds ate out of it.
+Genesis Gen 1 40 18 Joseph answered: This is the interpretation of the dream: The three baskets, are yet three days:
+Genesis Gen 1 40 19 After which Pharao will take thy head from thee, and hang thee on a cross, and the birds shall tear thy flesh.
+Genesis Gen 1 40 20 The third day after this was the birthday of Pharao: and he made a great feast for his servants, and at the banquet remembered the chief butler, and the chief baker.
+Genesis Gen 1 40 21 And he restored the one to his place, to present him the cup:
+Genesis Gen 1 40 22 The other he hanged on a gibbet, that the truth of the interpreter might be shewn.
+Genesis Gen 1 40 23 But the chief butler, when things prospered with him, forgot his interpreter.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 1 After two years Pharao had a dream. He thought he stood by the river,
+Genesis Gen 1 41 2 Out of which came up seven kine, very beautiful and fat: and they fed in marshy places.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 3 Other seven also came up out of the river, ill-favoured, and lean fleshed: and they fed on the very bank of the river, in green places:
+Genesis Gen 1 41 4 And they devoured them, whose bodies were very beautiful and well conditioned. So Pharao awoke.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 5 He slept again, and dreamed another dream: Seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk full and fair:
+Genesis Gen 1 41 6 Then seven other ears sprung up thin and blasted,
+Genesis Gen 1 41 7 And devoured all the beauty of the former. Pharao awaked after his rest:
+Genesis Gen 1 41 8 And when morning was come, being struck with fear, he sent to all the interpreters of Egypt, and to all the wise men: and they being called for, he told them his dream, and there was not any one that could interpret it.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 9 Then at length the chief butler remembering, said: I confess my sin:
+Genesis Gen 1 41 10 The king being angry with his servants, commanded me and the chief baker to be cast into the prison of the captain of the soldiers.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 11 Where in one night both of us dreamed a dream foreboding things to come.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 12 There was there a young man a Hebrew, servant to the same captain of the soldiers: to whom we told our dreams,
+Genesis Gen 1 41 13 And we heard what afterwards the event of the thing proved to be so. For I was restored to my office: and he was hanged upon a gibbet.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 14 Forthwith at the king’s command Joseph was brought out of the prison, and they shaved him: and changing his apparel brought him in to him.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 15 And he said to him: I have dreamed dreams, and there is no one that can expound them: Now I have heard that thou art very wise at interpreting them:
+Genesis Gen 1 41 16 Joseph answered: Without me, God shall give Pharao a prosperous answer.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 17 So Pharao told what he had dreamed: Methought I stood upon the bank of the river,
+Genesis Gen 1 41 18 And seven kine came up out of the river, exceeding beautiful and full of flesh: and they grazed on green places in a marshy pasture.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 19 And behold, there followed these, other seven kine, so very ill-favoured and lean, that I never saw the like in the land of Egypt:
+Genesis Gen 1 41 20 And they devoured and consumed the former,
+Genesis Gen 1 41 21 And yet gave no mark of their being full: but were as lean and ill-favoured as before. I awoke, and then fell asleep again,
+Genesis Gen 1 41 22 And dreamed a dream: Seven ears of corn grew up upon one stalk, full and very fair.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 23 Other seven also thin and blasted, sprung of the stalk:
+Genesis Gen 1 41 24 And they devoured the beauty of the former: I told this dream to the conjecturers, and there is no man that can expound it.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 25 Joseph answered: The king’s dream is one: God hath shewn to Pharao what he is about to do.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 26 The seven beautiful kine, and the seven full ears, are seven years of plenty: and both contain the same meaning of the dream.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 27 And the seven lean and thin kine that came up after them, and the seven thin ears that were blasted with the burning wind, are seven years of famine to come:
+Genesis Gen 1 41 28 Which shall be fulfilled in this order.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 29 Behold, there shall come seven years of great plenty in the whole land of Egypt:
+Genesis Gen 1 41 30 After which shall follow other seven years of so great scarcity, that all the abundance before shall be forgotten: for the famine shall consume all the land,
+Genesis Gen 1 41 31 And the greatness of the scarcity shall destroy the greatness of the plenty.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 32 And for that thou didst see the second time a dream pertaining to the same thing: it is a token of the certainty, and that the word of God cometh to pass, and is fulfilled speedily.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 33 Now therefore let the king provide a wise and industrious man, and make him ruler over the land of Egypt:
+Genesis Gen 1 41 34 That he may appoint overseers over all the countries: and gather into barns the fifth part of the fruits, during the seven fruitful years,
+Genesis Gen 1 41 35 That shall now presently ensue: and let all the corn be laid up, under Pharao’s hands, and be reserved in the cities.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 36 And let it be in readiness, against the famine of seven years to come, which shall oppress Egypt, and the land shall not be consumed with scarcity.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 37 The counsel pleased Pharao, and all his servants.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 38 And he said to them: Can we find such another man, that is full of the spirit of God?
+Genesis Gen 1 41 39 He said therefore to Joseph: Seeing God hath shewn thee all that thou hast said, can I find one wiser and one like unto thee?
+Genesis Gen 1 41 40 Thou shalt be over my house, and at the commandment of thy mouth all the people shall obey: only in the kingly throne will I be above thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 41 And again Pharao said to Joseph: Behold, I have appointed thee over the whole land of Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 42 And he took his ring from his own hand, and gave it into his hand: and he put upon him a robe of silk, and put a chain of gold about his neck.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 43 And he made him go up into his second chariot, the crier proclaiming that all should bow their knee before him, and that they should know he was made governor over the whole land of Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 44 And the king said to Joseph: I am Pharao: without thy commandment no man shall move hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 45 And he turned his name, and called him in the Egyptian tongue the saviour of the world. And he gave him to wife Aseneth, the daughter of Putiphare, priest of Heliopolis. Then Joseph went out to the land of Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 46 (Now he was thirty years old when he stood before king Pharao), and he went round all the countries of Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 47 And the fruitfulness of the seven years came: and the corn being bound up into sheaves, was gathered together into the barns of Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 48 And all the abundance of grain was laid up in every city.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 49 And there was so great abundance of wheat, that it was equal to the sand of the sea, and the plenty exceeded measure.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 50 And before the famine came, Joseph had two sons born: whom Aseneth, the daughter of Putiphare, priest of Heliopolis, bore unto him.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 51 And he called the name of the firstborn Manasses, saying: God hath made me to forget all my labours, and my father’s house.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 52 And he named the second Ephraim, saying: God hath made me to grow in the land of my poverty.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 53 Now when the seven years of plenty that had been in Egypt were passed:
+Genesis Gen 1 41 54 The seven years of scarcity, which Joseph had foretold, began to come: and the famine prevailed in the whole world, but there was bread in all the land of Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 55 And when there also they began to be famished, the people cried to Pharao, for food. And he said to them: Go to Joseph: and do all that he shall say to you.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 56 And the famine increased daily in all the land: and Joseph opened all the barns, and sold to the Egyptians: for the famine had oppressed them also.
+Genesis Gen 1 41 57 And all provinces came into Egypt, to buy food, and to seek some relief of their want.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 1 And Jacob hearing that food was sold in Egypt, said to his sons: Why are ye careless?
+Genesis Gen 1 42 2 I have heard that wheat is sold in Egypt: Go ye down, and buy us necessaries, that we may live, and not be consumed with want.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 3 So the ten brethren of Joseph went down, to buy corn in Egypt:
+Genesis Gen 1 42 4 Whilst Benjamin was kept at home by Jacob, who said to his brethren: Lest perhaps he take any harm in the journey.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 5 And they entered into the land of Egypt with others that went to buy. For the famine was in the land of Chanaan.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 6 And Joseph was governor in the land of Egypt, and corn was sold by his direction to the people. And when his brethren had bowed down to him,
+Genesis Gen 1 42 7 And he knew them, he spoke as it were to strangers, somewhat roughly, asking them: Whence came you? They answered: From the land of Chanaan, to buy necessaries of life.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 8 And though he knew his brethren, he was not known by them.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 9 And remembering the dreams, which formerly he had dreamed, he said to them: You are spies. You are come to view the weaker parts of the land.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 10 But they said: It is not so, my lord; but thy servants are come to buy food.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 11 We are all the sons of one man: we are come as peaceable men, neither do thy servants go about any evil.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 12 And he answered them: It is otherwise: you are come to consider the unfenced parts of this land.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 13 But they said: We thy servants are twelve brethren, the sons of one man in the land of Chanaan: the youngest is with our father, the other is not living.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 14 He saith, This is it that I said: You are spies.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 15 I shall now presently try what you are: by the health of Pharao, you shall not depart hence, until your youngest brother come.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 16 Send one of you to fetch him: and you shall be in prison, till what you have said be proved, whether it be true or false: or else by the health of Pharao you are spies.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 17 So he put them in prison three days.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 18 And the third day he brought them out of prison, and said: Do as I have said, and you shall live: for I fear God.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 19 If you be peaceable men, let one of your brethren be bound in prison: and go ye your ways, and carry the corn that you have bought, unto your houses.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 20 And bring your youngest brother to me, that I may find your words to be true, and you may not die. They did as he had said.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 21 And they talked one to another: We deserve to suffer these things, because we have sinned against our brother, seeing the anguish of his soul, when he besought us, and we would not hear: therefore is this affliction come upon us.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 22 And Ruben, one of them, said: Did not I say to you: Do not sin against the boy; and you would not hear me? Behold his blood is required.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 23 And they knew not that Joseph understood, because he spoke to them by an interpreter.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 24 And he turned himself away a little while, and wept: and returning, he spoke to them.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 25 And taking Simeon, and binding him in their presence, he commanded his servants to fill their sacks with wheat, and to put every man’s money again in their sacks, and to give them besides provisions for the way: and they did so.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 26 But they having loaded their asses with the corn went their way.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 27 And one of them opening his sack, to give his beast provender in the inn, saw the money in the sack’s mouth,
+Genesis Gen 1 42 28 And said to his brethren: My money is given me again; behold it is in the sack. And they were astonished, and troubled, and said to one another: What is this that God hath done unto us?
+Genesis Gen 1 42 29 And they came to Jacob their father in the land of Chanaan, and they told him all things that had befallen them, saying:
+Genesis Gen 1 42 30 The lord of the land spoke roughly to us, and took us to be spies of the country.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 31 And we answered him: We are peaceable men, and we mean no plot.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 32 We are twelve brethren born of one father: one is not living, the youngest is with our father in the land of Chanaan.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 33 And he said to us: Hereby shall I know that you are peaceable men: Leave one of your brethren with me, and take ye necessary provision for your houses, and go your ways,
+Genesis Gen 1 42 34 And bring your youngest brother to me, that I may know you are not spies: and you may receive this man again, that is kept in prison: and afterwards may have leave to buy what you will.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 35 When they had told this, they poured out their corn, and every man found his money tied in the mouth of his sack: and all being astonished together,
+Genesis Gen 1 42 36 Their father Jacob said: You have made me to be without children: Joseph is not living, Simeon is kept in bonds, and Benjamin you will take away: all these evils are fallen upon me.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 37 And Ruben answered him: Kill my two sons, if I bring him not again to thee: deliver him into my hand, and I will restore him to thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 42 38 But he said: My son shall not go down with you: his brother is dead, and he is left alone: if any mischief befall him in the land to which you go, you will bring down my grey hairs with sorrow to hell.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 1 In the mean time the famine was heavy upon all the land.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 2 And when they had eaten up all the corn, which they had brought out of Egypt, Jacob said to his sons: Go again, and buy us a little food.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 3 Juda answered: The man declared unto us with the attestation of an oath, saying: You shall not see my face, unless you bring your youngest brother with you.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 4 If therefore thou wilt send him with us, we will set out together, and will buy necessaries for thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 5 But if thou wilt not, we will not go: for the man, as we have often said, declared unto us, saying: You shall not see my face without your youngest brother.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 6 Israel said to them: You have done this for my misery, in that you told him you had also another brother.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 7 But they answered: The man asked us in order concerning our kindred: if our father lived: if we had a brother: and we answered him regularly, according to what he demanded: could we know that he would say: Bring hither your brother with you?
+Genesis Gen 1 43 8 And Juda said to his father: Send the boy with me, that we may set forward, and may live: lest both we and our children perish.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 9 I take the boy upon me, require him at my hand: unless I bring him again, and restore him to thee, I will be guilty of sin against thee for ever.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 10 If delay had not been made, we had been here again the second time.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 11 Then Israel said to them: If it must needs be so, do what you will: take of the best fruits of the land in your vessels, and carry down presents to the man, a little balm, and honey, and storax, myrrh, turpentine, and almonds.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 12 And take with you double money, and carry back what you found in your sacks, lest perhaps it was done by mistake.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 13 And take also your brother, and go to the man.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 14 And may my almighty God make him favourable to you: and send back with you your brother, whom he keepeth, and this Benjamin: and as for me I shall be desolate without children.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 15 So the men took the presents, and double money, and Benjamin: and went down into Egypt, and stood before Joseph.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 16 And when he had seen them, and Benjamin with them, he commanded the steward of his house, saying: Bring in the men into the house, and kill victims, and prepare a feast: because they shall eat with me at noon.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 17 He did as he was commanded, and brought the men into the house.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 18 And they being much afraid, said there one to another: Because of the money, which we carried back the first time in our sacks, we are brought in: that he may bring upon us a false accusation, and by violence make slaves of us and our asses.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 19 Wherefore, going up to the steward of the house, at the door,
+Genesis Gen 1 43 20 They said: Sir, we desire thee to hear us. We came down once before to buy food:
+Genesis Gen 1 43 21 And when we had bought, and were come to the inn, we opened our sacks, and found our money in the mouths of the sacks: which we have now brought again in the same weight.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 22 And we have brought other money besides, to buy what we want: we cannot tell who put it in our bags.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 23 But he answered: Peace be with you, fear not: your God, and the God of your father, hath given you treasure in your sacks. For the money, which you gave me, I have for good. And he brought Simeon out to them.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 24 And having brought them into the house, he fetched water, and they washed their feet, and he gave provender to their asses.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 25 But they made ready the presents, against Joseph came at noon: for they had heard that they should eat bread there.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 26 Then Joseph came in to his house, and they offered him the presents, holding them in their hands; and they bowed down with their face to the ground.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 27 But he courteously saluting them again, asked them, saying: Is the old man your father in health, of whom you told me? Is he yet living?
+Genesis Gen 1 43 28 And they answered: Thy servant our father, is in health; he is yet living. And bowing themselves, they made obeisance to him.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 29 And Joseph lifting up his eyes, saw Benjamin, his brother by the same mother, and said: Is this your young brother, of whom you told me? And he said: God be gracious to thee, my son.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 30 And he made haste, because his heart was moved upon his brother, and tears gushed out: and going into his chamber, he wept.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 31 And when he had washed his face, coming out again, he refrained himself, and said: Set bread on the table.
+Genesis Gen 1 43 32 And when it was set on, for Joseph apart, and for his brethren apart, for the Egyptians also that ate with him apart, (for it is unlawful for the Egyptians to eat with the Hebrews, and they think such a feast profane):
+Genesis Gen 1 43 33 They sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright, and the youngest according to his age. And they wondered very much;
+Genesis Gen 1 43 34 Taking the messes which they received of him: and the greater mess came to Benjamin, so that it exceeded by five parts. And they drank, and were merry with him.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 1 And Joseph commanded the steward of his house, saying: Fill their sacks with corn, as much as they can hold: and put the money of every one in the top of his sack.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 2 And in the mouth of the younger’s sack put my silver cup, and the price which he gave for the wheat. And it was so done.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 3 And when the morning arose, they were sent away with their asses.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 4 And when they were now departed out of the city, and had gone forward a little way: Joseph sending for the steward of his house, said: Arise, and pursue after the men: and when thou hast overtaken them, say to them: Why have you returned evil for good?
+Genesis Gen 1 44 5 The cup which you have stolen, is that in which my lord drinketh, and in which he is wont to divine: you have done a very evil thing.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 6 He did as he had commanded him. And having overtaken them, he spoke to them the same words.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 7 And they answered: Why doth our lord speak so, as though thy servants had committed so heinous a fact?
+Genesis Gen 1 44 8 The money, that we found in the top of our sacks, we brought back to thee from the land of Chanaan: how then should it be that we should steal out of thy lord’s house, gold or silver?
+Genesis Gen 1 44 9 With whomsoever of thy servants shall be found that which thou seekest, let him die, and we will be the bondmen of my lord.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 10 And he said to them: Let it be according to your sentence: with whomsoever it shall be found, let him be my servant, and you shall be blameless.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 11 Then they speedily took down their sacks to the ground, and every man opened his sack.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 12 Which when he had searched, beginning at the eldest, and ending at the youngest, he found the cup in Benjamin’s sack.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 13 Then they rent their garments, and loading their asses again, returned into the town.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 14 And Juda at the head of his brethren went in to Joseph (for he was not yet gone out of the place) and they all together fell down before him on the ground.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 15 And he said to them: Why would you do so? know you not that there is no one like me in the science of divining.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 16 And Juda said to him: What shall we answer my lord? or what shall we say, or be able justly to allege? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold, we are all bondmen to my lord, both we, and he with whom the cup was found.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 17 Joseph answered: God forbid that I should do so: he that stole the cup, he shall be my bondman: and go you away free to your father.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 18 Then Juda coming nearer, said boldly: I beseech thee, my lord, let thy servant speak a word in thy ears, and be not angry with thy servant: for after Pharao thou art.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 19 My lord. Thou didst ask thy servants the first time: Have you a father or a brother.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 20 And we answered thee, my lord: We have a father an old man, and a young boy, that was born in his old age; whose brother by the mother is dead; and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him tenderly.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 21 And thou saidst to thy servants: Bring him hither to me, and I will set my eyes on him.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 22 We suggested to my lord: The boy cannot leave his father: for if he leave him, he will die.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 23 And thou saidst to thy servants: Except your youngest brother come with you, you shall see my face no more.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 24 Therefore when we were gone up to thy servant our father, we told him all that my lord had said.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 25 And our father said: Go again, and buy us a little wheat.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 26 And we said to him: We cannot go: if our youngest brother go down with us, we will set out together: otherwise, without him we dare not see the man’s face.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 27 Whereunto he answered: You know that my wife bore me two.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 28 One went out, and you said: A beast devoured him; and hitherto he appeareth not.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 29 If you take this also, and any thing befall him in the way, you will bring down my grey hairs with sorrow unto hell.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 30 Therefore, if I shall go to thy servant, our father, and the boy be wanting, (whereas his life dependeth upon the life of him,)
+Genesis Gen 1 44 31 And he shall see that he is not with us, he will die, and thy servants shall bring down his grey hairs with sorrow unto hell.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 32 Let me be thy proper servant, who took him into my trust, and promised, saying: If I bring him not again, I will be guilty of sin against my father for ever.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 33 Therefore I, thy servant, will stay instead of the boy in the service of my lord, and let the boy go up with his brethren.
+Genesis Gen 1 44 34 For I cannot return to my father without the boy, lest I be a witness of the calamity that will oppress my father.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 1 Joseph could no longer refrain himself before many that stood by: whereupon he commanded that all should go out, and no stranger be present at their knowing one another.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 2 And he lifted up his voice with weeping, which the Egyptians, and all the house of Pharao heard.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 3 And he said to his brethren: I am Joseph: Is my father yet living? His brethren could not answer him, being struck with exceeding great fear.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 4 And he said mildly to them: Come nearer to me. And when they were come near him, he said: I am Joseph, your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 5 Be not afraid, and let it not seem to you a hard case that you sold me into these countries: for God sent me before you into Egypt for your preservation.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 6 For it is two years since the famine began to be upon the land, and five years more remain, wherein there can be neither ploughing nor reaping.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 7 And God sent me before, that you may be preserved upon the earth, and may have food to live.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 8 Not by your counsel was I sent hither, but by the will of God: who hath made me as it were a father to Pharao, and lord of his whole house, and governor in all the land of Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 9 Make haste, and go ye up to my father, and say to him: Thus saith thy son Joseph: God hath made me lord of the whole land of Egypt; come down to me, linger not.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 10 And thou shalt dwell in the land of Gessen: and thou shalt be near me, thou and thy sons, and thy sons’ sons, thy sheep, and thy herds, and all things that thou hast.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 11 And there I will feed thee, (for there are yet five years of famine remaining) lest both thou perish, and thy house, and all things that thou hast.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 12 Behold, your eyes, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, see that it is my mouth that speaketh to you.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 13 You shall tell my father of all my glory, and all things that you have seen in Egypt: make haste and bring him to me.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 14 And falling upon the neck of his brother Benjamin, he embraced him and wept: and Benjamin in like manner wept also on his neck.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 15 And Joseph kissed all his brethren, and wept upon every one of them: after which they were emboldened to speak to him.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 16 And it was heard, and the fame was spread abroad in the king’s court: The brethren of Joseph are come; and Pharao with all his family was glad.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 17 And he spoke to Joseph that he should give orders to his brethren, saying: Load your beasts, and go into the land of Chanaan,
+Genesis Gen 1 45 18 And bring away from thence your father and kindred, and come to me; and I will give you all the good things of Egypt, that you may eat the marrow of the land.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 19 Give orders also that they take wagons out of the land of Egypt, for the carriage of their children and their wives; and say: Take up your father, and make haste to come with all speed:
+Genesis Gen 1 45 20 And leave nothing of your household stuff; for all the riches of Egypt shall be yours.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 21 And the sons of Israel did as they were bid. And Joseph gave them wagons according to Pharao’s commandment: and provisions for the way.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 22 He ordered also to be brought out for every one of them two robes: but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver, with five robes of the best:
+Genesis Gen 1 45 23 Sending to his father as much money and raiment; adding besides, ten he-asses, to carry off all the riches of Egypt, and as many she-asses, carrying wheat and bread for the journey.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 24 So he sent away his brethren, and at their departing said to them: Be not angry in the way.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 25 And they went up out of Egypt, and came into the land of Chanaan, to their father Jacob.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 26 And they told him, saying: Joseph, thy son, is living; and he is ruler in all the land of Egypt. Which when Jacob heard, he awaked as it were out of a deep sleep, yet did not believe them.
+Genesis Gen 1 45 27 They, on the other side, told the whole order of the thing. And when he saw the wagons, and all that he had sent, his spirit revived,
+Genesis Gen 1 45 28 And he said: It is enough for me if Joseph, my son, be yet living: I will go and see him before I die.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 1 And Israel taking his journey, with all that he had, came to the well of the oath, and killing victims there to the God of his father Isaac,
+Genesis Gen 1 46 2 He heard him, by a vision in the night, calling him, and saying to him: Jacob, Jacob. And he answered him: Lo, here I am.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 3 God said to him: I am the most mighty God of thy father; fear not, go down into Egypt, for I will make a great nation of thee there.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 4 I will go down with thee thither, and will bring thee back again from thence: Joseph also shall put his hands upon thy eyes.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 5 And Jacob rose up from the well of the oath: and his sons took him up, with their children and wives in the wagons, which Pharao had sent to carry the old man,
+Genesis Gen 1 46 6 And all that he had in the land of Chanaan: and he came into Egypt with all his seed;
+Genesis Gen 1 46 7 His sons, and grandsons, daughters, and all his offspring together.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 8 And these are the names of the children of Israel, that entered into Egypt, he and his children. His firstborn Ruben,
+Genesis Gen 1 46 9 The sons of Ruben: Henoch and Phallu, and Hesron and Charmi.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 10 The sons of Simeon: Jamuel and Jamin and Ahod, and Jachin and Sohar, and Saul, the son of a woman of Chanaan.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 11 The sons of Levi: Gerson and Caath, and Merari.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 12 The sons of Juda: Her and Onan, and Sela, and Phares and Zara. And Her and Onan died in the land of Chanaan. And sons were born to Phares: Hesron and Hamul.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 13 The sons of Issachar: Thola and Phua, and Job and Semron.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 14 The sons of Zabulon: Sared, and Elon, and Jahelel.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 15 These are the sons of Lia, whom she bore in Mesopotamia of Syria, with Dina, his daughter. All the souls of her sons and daughters, thirty-three.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 16 The sons of Gad: Sephion and Haggi, and Suni and Esebon, and Heri and Arodi, and Areli.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 17 The sons of Aser: Jamne and Jesua, and Jessuri and Beria, and Sara their sister. The sons of Beria: Heber and Melchiel.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 18 These are the sons of Zelpha, whom Laban gave to Lia, his daughter. And these she bore to Jacob, sixteen souls.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 19 The sons of Rachel, Jacob’s wife: Joseph and Benjamin.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 20 And sons were born to Joseph, in the land of Egypt, whom Aseneth, the daughter of Putiphare, priest of Heliopolis, bore him: Manasses and Ephraim.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 21 The sons of Benjamin: Bela and Bechor, and Asbel and Gera, and Naaman and Echi, and Ross and Mophim, and Ophim and Ared.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 22 These are the sons of Rachel, whom she bore to Jacob: all the souls, fourteen.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 23 The sons of Dan: Husim.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 24 The sons of Nephthali: Jaziel and Guni, and Jeser and Sallem.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 25 These are the sons of Bala, whom Laban gave to Rachel, his daughter: and these she bore to Jacob: all the souls, seven.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 26 All the souls that went with Jacob into Egypt, and that came out of his thigh, besides his sons’ wives, sixty-six.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 27 And the sons of Joseph, that were born to him in the land of Egypt, two souls. All the souls of the house of Jacob, that entered into Egypt, were seventy.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 28 And he sent Juda before him to Joseph, to tell him; and that he should meet him in Gessen.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 29 And when he was come thither, Joseph made ready his chariot, and went up to meet his father in the same place: and seeing him, he fell upon his neck, and embracing him, wept.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 30 And the father said to Joseph: Now shall I die with joy, because I have seen thy face, and leave thee alive.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 31 And Joseph said to his brethren, and to all his father’s house: I will go up, and will tell Pharao, and will say to him: My brethren, and my father’s house, that were in the land of Chanaan, are come to me:
+Genesis Gen 1 46 32 And the men are shepherds, and their occupation is to feed cattle; their flocks, and herds, and all they have, they have brought with them.
+Genesis Gen 1 46 33 And when he shall call you, and shall say: What is your occupation?
+Genesis Gen 1 46 34 You shall answer: We, thy servants, are shepherds, from our infancy until now, both we and our fathers. And this you shall say, that you may dwell in the land of Gessen, because the Egyptians have all shepherds in abomination.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 1 Then Joseph went in and told Pharao, saying: My father and brethren, their sheep and their herds, and all that they possess, are come out of the land of Chanaan: and behold they stay in the land of Gessen.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 2 Five men also, the last of his brethren, he presented before the king:
+Genesis Gen 1 47 3 And he asked them: What is your occupation? They answered: We, thy servants, are shepherds, both we and our fathers.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 4 We are come to sojourn in thy land, because there is no grass for the flocks of thy servants, the famine being very grievous in the land of Chanaan: and we pray thee to give orders that we thy servants may be in the land of Gessen.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 5 The king therefore said to Joseph: Thy father and thy brethren are come to thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 6 The land of Egypt is before thee: and make them dwell in the best place, and give them the land of Gessen. And if thou knowest that there are industrious men among them, make them rulers over my cattle.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 7 After this Joseph brought in his father to the king, and presented him before him: and he blessed him.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 8 And being asked by him: How many are the days of the years of thy life?
+Genesis Gen 1 47 9 He answered: The days of my pilgrimage are a hundred and thirty years, few, and evil, and they are not come up to the days of the pilgrimage of my fathers.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 10 And blessing the king, he went out.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 11 But Joseph gave a possession to his father and his brethren in Egypt, in the best place of the land, in Ramesses, as Pharao had commanded.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 12 And he nourished them, and all his father’s house, allowing food to every one.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 13 For in the whole world there was want of bread, and a famine had oppressed the land, more especially of Egypt and Chanaan;
+Genesis Gen 1 47 14 Out of which he gathered up all the money for the corn which they bought, and brought it in to the king’s treasure.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 15 And when the buyers wanted money, all Egypt came to Joseph, saying: Give us bread: why should we die in thy presence, having now no money?
+Genesis Gen 1 47 16 And he answered them: Bring me your cattle, and for them I will give you food, if you have no money.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 17 And when they had brought them, he gave them food in exchange for their horses, and sheep, and oxen, and asses: and he maintained them that year for the exchange of their cattle.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 18 And they came the second year, and said to him: We will not hide from our lord, how that our money is spent, and our cattle also are gone: neither art thou ignorant that we have nothing now left but our bodies and our lands.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 19 Why therefore shall we die before thy eyes? we will be thine, both we and our lands: buy us to be the king’s servants, and give us seed, lest for want of tillers the land be turned into a wilderness.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 20 So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt, every man selling his possessions, because of the greatness of the famine. And he brought it into Pharao’s hands:
+Genesis Gen 1 47 21 And all its people from one end of the borders of Egypt, even to the other end thereof,
+Genesis Gen 1 47 22 Except the land of the priests, which had been given them by the king: to whom also a certain allowance of food was given out of the public stores, and therefore they were not forced to sell their possessions.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 23 Then Joseph said to the people: Behold, as you see, both you and your lands belong to Pharao; take seed and sow the fields,
+Genesis Gen 1 47 24 That you may have corn. The fifth part you shall give to the king; the other four you shall have for seed, and for food for your families and children.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 25 And they answered: our life is in thy hand; only let my lord look favourably upon us, and we will gladly serve the king.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 26 From that time unto this day, in the whole land of Egypt, the fifth part is paid to the kings, and it is become as a law, except the land of the priests, which was free from this covenant.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 27 So Israel dwelt in Egypt, that is, in the land of Gessen, and possessed it; and grew, and was multiplied exceedingly.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 28 And he lived in it seventeen years: and all the days of his life came to a hundred and forty-seven years.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 29 And when he saw that the day of his death drew nigh, he called his son Joseph, and said to him: If I have found favour in thy sight, put thy hand under my thigh; and thou shalt shew me this kindness and truth, not to bury me in Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 30 But I will sleep with my fathers, and thou shalt take me away out of this land, and bury me in the burying place of my ancestors. And Joseph answered him: I will do what thou hast commanded.
+Genesis Gen 1 47 31 And he said: Swear then to me. And as he was swearing, Israel adored God, turning to the bed’s head.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 1 After these things, it was told Joseph that his father was sick; and he set out to go to him, taking his two sons Manasses and Ephraim.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 2 And it was told the old man: Behold thy son Joseph cometh to thee. And being strengthened, he sat on his bed.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 3 And when Joseph was come in to him, he said: God almighty appeared to me at Luza, which is in the land of Chanaan, and he blessed me,
+Genesis Gen 1 48 4 And said: I will cause thee to increase and multiply, and I will make of thee a multitude of people: and I will give this land to thee, and to thy seed after thee for an everlasting possession.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 5 So thy two sons, who were born to thee in the land of Egypt before I came hither to thee, shall be mine: Ephraim and Manasses shall be reputed to me as Ruben and Simeon.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 6 But the rest whom thou shalt have after them, shall be thine, and shall be called by the name of their brethren in their possessions.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 7 For, when I came out of Mesopotamia, Rachel died from me in the land of Chanaan in the very journey, and it was spring time: and I was going to Ephrata, and I buried her near the way of Ephrata, which by another name is called Bethlehem.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 8 Then seeing his sons, he said to him: Who are these?
+Genesis Gen 1 48 9 He answered: They are my sons, whom God hath given me in this place. And he said: Bring them to me, that I may bless them.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 10 For Israel’s eyes were dim by reason of his great age, and he could not see clearly. And when they were brought to him, he kissed and embraced them,
+Genesis Gen 1 48 11 And said to his son: I am not deprived of seeing thee; moreover God hath shewn me thy seed.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 12 And when Joseph had taken them from his father’s lap, he bowed down with his face to the ground.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 13 And he set Ephraim on his right hand, that is, towards the left hand of Israel; but Manasses on his left hand, to wit, towards his father’s right hand, and brought them near to him.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 14 But he, stretching forth his right hand, put it upon the head of Ephraim, the younger brother; and the left upon the head of Manasses, who was the elder, changing his hands.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 15 And Jacob blessed the sons of Joseph, and said: God, in whose sight my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked, God that feedeth me from my youth until this day:
+Genesis Gen 1 48 16 The angel that delivereth me from all evils, bless these boys: and let my name be called upon them, and the names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and may they grow into a multitude upon the earth.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 17 And Joseph seeing that his father had put his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, was much displeased: and taking his father’s hand, he tried to lift it from Ephraim’s head, and to remove it to the head of Manasses.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 18 And he said to his father: It should not be so, my father; for this is the firstborn, put thy right hand upon his head.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 19 But he refusing, said: I know, my son, I know: and this also shall become a people, and shall be multiplied; but his younger brother shall be greater than he; and his seed shall grow into nations.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 20 And he blessed them at that time, saying: In thee shall Israel be blessed, and it shall be said: God do to thee as to Ephraim, and as to Manasses. And he set Ephraim before Manasses.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 21 And he said to Joseph, his son: Behold I die, and God will be with you, and will bring you back into the land of your fathers.
+Genesis Gen 1 48 22 I give thee a portion above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorrhite with my sword and bow.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 1 And Jacob called his sons, and said to them: Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you the things that shall befall you in the last days.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, O ye sons of Jacob, hearken to Israel, your father:
+Genesis Gen 1 49 3 Ruben, my firstborn, thou art my strength, and the beginning of my sorrow; excelling in gifts, greater in command.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 4 Thou art poured out as water, grow thou not; because thou wentest up to thy father’s bed, and didst defile his couch.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 5 Simeon and Levi brethren: vessels of iniquity waging war.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 6 Let not my soul go into their counsel, nor my glory be in their assembly: because in their fury they slew a man, and in their self-will they undermined a wall.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 7 Cursed be their fury, because it was stubborn: and their wrath, because it was cruel: I will divide them in Jacob, and will scatter them in Israel.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 8 Juda, thee shall thy brethren praise: thy hand shall be on the necks of thy enemies; the sons of thy father shall bow down to thee.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 9 Juda is a lion’s whelp: to the prey, my son, thou art gone up: resting thou hast couched as a lion, and as a lioness, who shall rouse him?
+Genesis Gen 1 49 10 The sceptre shall not be taken away from Juda, nor a ruler from his thigh, till he come that is to be sent, and he shall be the expectation of nations.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 11 Tying his foal to the vineyard, and his ass, O my son, to the vine. He shall wash his robe in wine, and his garment in the blood of the grape.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 12 His eyes are more beautiful than wine, and his teeth whiter than milk.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 13 Zabulon shall dwell on the seashore, and in the road of ships, reaching as far as Sidon.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 14 Issachar shall be a strong ass, lying down between the borders.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 15 He saw rest that it was good: and the land that it was excellent: and he bowed his shoulder to carry, and became a servant under tribute.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 16 Dan shall judge his people like another tribe in Israel.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 17 Let Dan be a snake in the way, a serpent in the path, that biteth the horse’s heels, that his rider may fall backward.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 18 I will look for thy salvation, O Lord.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 19 Gad, being girded, shall fight before him: and he himself shall be girded backward.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 20 Aser, his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield dainties to kings.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 21 Nephthali, a hart let loose, and giving words of beauty.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 22 Joseph is a growing son, a growing son and comely to behold: the daughters run to and fro upon the wall;
+Genesis Gen 1 49 23 But they that held darts, provoked him, and quarrelled with him, and envied him.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 24 His bow rested upon the strong, and the bands of his arms and his hands were loosed, by the hands of the mighty one of Jacob: thence he came forth a pastor, the stone of Israel.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 25 The God of thy father shall be thy helper, and the Almighty shall bless thee with the blessings of heaven above, with the blessings of the deep that lieth beneath, with the blessings of the breasts and of the womb.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 26 The blessings of thy father are strengthened with the blessings of his fathers: until the desire of the everlasting hills should come: may they be upon the head of Joseph, and upon the crown of the Nazarite among his brethren.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 27 Benjamin a ravenous wolf, in the morning shall eat the prey, and in the evening shall divide the spoil.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 28 All these are the twelve tribes of Israel: these things their father spoke to them, and he blessed every one with their proper blessings.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 29 And he charged them, saying: I am now going to be gathered to my people: bury me with my fathers in the double cave, which is in the field of Ephron the Hethite,
+Genesis Gen 1 49 30 Over against Mambre, in the land of Chanaan, which Abraham bought together with the field, of Ephron the Hethite, for a possession to bury in.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 31 There they buried him, and Sara his wife: there was Isaac buried with Rebecca, his wife: there also Lia doth lie buried.
+Genesis Gen 1 49 32 And when he had ended the commandments, wherewith he instructed his sons, he drew up his feet upon the bed, and died: and he was gathered to his people.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 1 And when Joseph saw this, he fell upon his father’s face, weeping and kissing him.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 2 And he commanded his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 3 And while they were fulfilling his commands, there passed forty days: for this was the manner with bodies that were embalmed, and Egypt mourned for him seventy days.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 4 And the time of the mourning being expired, Joseph spoke to the family of Pharao: If I have found favour in your sight, speak in the ears of Pharao:
+Genesis Gen 1 50 5 For my father made me swear to him, saying: Behold I die; thou shalt bury me in my sepulchre which I have digged for myself in the land of Chanaan. So I will go up and bury my father, and return.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 6 And Pharao said to him: Go up and bury thy father according as he made thee swear.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 7 So he went up, and there went with him all the ancients of Pharao’s house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 8 And the house of Joseph with his brethren, except their children, and their flocks and herds, which they left in the land of Gessen.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 9 He had also in his train chariots and horsemen: and it was a great company.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 10 And they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is situated beyond the Jordan: where celebrating the exequies with a great and vehement lamentation, they spent full seven days.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 11 And when the inhabitants of Chanaan saw this, they said: This is a great mourning to the Egyptians. And therefore the name of that place was called, The mourning of Egypt.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 12 So the sons of Jacob did as he had commanded them.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 13 And carrying him into the land of Chanaan, they buried him in the double cave, which Abraham had bought together with the field for a possession of a burying place, of Ephron, the Hethite, over against Mambre.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 14 And Joseph returned into Egypt with his brethren, and all that were in his company, after he had buried his father.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 15 Now he being dead, his brethren were afraid, and talked one with another: Lest perhaps he should remember the wrong he suffered, and requite us all the evil that we did to him.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 16 And they sent a message to him, saying: Thy father commanded us before he died,
+Genesis Gen 1 50 17 That we should say thus much to thee from him: I beseech thee to forget the wickedness of thy brethren, and the sin and malice they practised against thee: we also pray thee, to forgive the servants of the God of thy father this wickedness. And when Joseph heard this, he wept.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 18 And his brethren came to him; and worshipping prostrate on the ground, they said: We are thy servants.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 19 And he answered them: Fear not: can we resist the will of God?
+Genesis Gen 1 50 20 You thought evil against me: but God turned it into good, that he might exalt me, as at present you see, and might save many people.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 21 Fear not: I will feed you and your children. And he comforted them, and spoke gently and mildly.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 22 And he dwelt in Egypt with all his father’s house; and lived a hundred and ten years. And he saw the children of Ephraim to the third generation. The children also of Machir, the sons of Manasses, were born on Joseph’s knees.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 23 After which he told his brethren: God will visit you after my death, and will make you go up out of this land, to the land which he swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
+Genesis Gen 1 50 24 And he made them swear to him, saying: God will visit you, carry my bones with you out of this place:
+Genesis Gen 1 50 25 And he died, being a hundred and ten years old. And being embalmed, he was laid in a coffin in Egypt.
Exodus Exo 2 1 1 These are the names of the children of Israel, that went into Egypt with Jacob: they went in every man with his household:
Exodus Exo 2 1 2 Ruben, Simeon, Levi, Juda,
Exodus Exo 2 1 3 Issachar, Zabulon, and Benjamin,
