.Ge 1:1
In the beginning God created the heaven
and the earth.

.Ge 1:2
And the earth was without form, and
void; and darkness [was]
upon the face of the deep. And the
Spirit of God moved upon
the face of the waters.

.Ge 1:3
And God said, Let there be light:
and there was light.

.Ge 1:4
And God saw the light, that [it was]
good: and God divided
the light from the darkness.

.Ge 1:5
And God called the light Day, and the
darkness he called
Night. And the evening and the morning
were the first day.

.Ge 1:6
And God said, Let there be a firmament
in the midst of the
waters, and let it divide the waters
from the waters.

.Ge 1:7
And God made the firmament, and divided
the waters which [were]
under the firmament from the waters
which [were] above the
firmament: and it was so.

.Ge 1:8
And God called the firmament
Heaven. And the evening and the
morning were the second day.

.Ge 1:9
And God said, Let the waters under the
heaven be gathered
together unto one place, and let the
dry [land] appear: and
it was so.

.Ge 1:10
And God called the dry [land] Earth;
and the gathering together
of the waters called he Seas: and God
saw that [it was] good.

.Ge 1:11
And God said, Let the earth bring forth
grass, the herb yielding
seed, [and] the fruit tree yielding
fruit after his kind,
whose seed [is] in itself, upon the
earth: and it was so.

.Ge 1:12
And the earth brought forth grass,
[and] herb yielding seed
after his kind, and the tree yielding
fruit, whose seed [was]
in itself, after his kind: and God saw
that [it was] good.

.Ge 1:13
And the evening and the morning were
the third day.

.Ge 1:14
And God said, Let there be lights in
the firmament of the heaven
to divide the day from the night;
and let them be for signs,
and for seasons, and for days, and
years:

.Ge 1:15
And let them be for lights in the
firmament of the heaven to
give light upon the earth: and it was
so.

.Ge 1:16
And God made two great lights; the
greater light to rule
the day, and the lesser light to rule
the night: [he made]
the stars also.

.Ge 1:17
And God set them in the firmament of
the heaven to give light
upon the earth,

.Ge 1:18
And to rule over the day and over the
night, and to divide
the light from the darkness: and God
saw that [it was] good.

.Ge 1:19
And the evening and the morning were
the fourth day.

.Ge 1:20
And God said, Let the waters bring
forth abundantly the moving
creature that hath life, and fowl
[that] may fly above the
earth in the open firmament of heaven.

.Ge 1:21
And God created great whales, and every
living creature that
moveth, which the waters brought forth
abundantly, after their
kind, and every winged fowl after his
kind: and God saw that
[it was] good.

.Ge 1:22
And God blessed them, saying, Be
fruitful, and multiply,
and fill the waters in the seas, and
let fowl multiply in the
earth.

.Ge 1:23
And the evening and the morning were
the fifth day.

.Ge 1:24
And God said, Let the earth bring forth
the living creature
after his kind, cattle, and creeping
thing, and beast of the
earth after his kind: and it was so.

.Ge 1:25
And God made the beast of the earth
after his kind, and cattle
after their kind, and every thing that
creepeth upon the earth
after his kind: and God saw that [it
was] good.

.Ge 1:26
And God said, Let us make man in our
image, after our likeness:
and let them have dominion over the
fish of the sea, and over
the fowl of the air, and over the
cattle, and over all the
earth, and over every creeping thing
that creepeth upon the
earth.

.Ge 1:27
So God created man in his [own] image,
in the image of God
created he him; male and female created
he them.

.Ge 1:28
And God blessed them, and God said unto
them, Be fruitful,
and multiply, and replenish the earth,
and subdue it: and have
dominion over the fish of the sea,
and over the fowl of the air,
and over every living thing that moveth
upon the earth.

.Ge 1:29
And God said, Behold, I have given you
every herb bearing seed,
which [is] upon the face of all the
earth, and every tree,
in the which [is] the fruit of a tree
yielding seed; to you
it shall be for meat.

.Ge 1:30
And to every beast of the earth, and
to every fowl of the
air, and to every thing that creepeth
upon the earth, wherein
[there is] life, [I have given] every
green herb for meat:
and it was so.

.Ge 1:31
And God saw every thing that he had
made, and, behold, [it was]
very good. And the evening and the
morning were the sixth day.

.Ge 2:1
Thus the heavens and the earth were
finished, and all the host
of them.

.Ge 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 made.

.Ge 2:3
And God blessed the seventh day, and
sanctified it: because
that in it he had rested from all his
work which God created
and made.

.Ge 2:4
These [are] the generations of the
heavens and of the earth
when they were created, in the day that
the LORD God made the
earth and the heavens,

.Ge 2:5
And every plant of the field before it
was in the earth, and
every herb of the field before it grew:
for the LORD God had
not caused it to rain upon the earth,
and [there was] not a
man to till the ground.

.Ge 2:6
But there went up a mist from the
earth, and watered the whole
face of the ground.

.Ge 2:7
And the LORD God formed man [of] the
dust of the ground, and
breathed into his nostrils the breath
of life; and man became
a living soul.

.Ge 2:8
And the LORD God planted a garden
eastward in Eden; and there
he put the man whom he had formed.

.Ge 2:9
And out of the ground made the LORD
God to grow every tree that
is pleasant to the sight, and good for
food; the tree of life
also in the midst of the garden, and
the tree of knowledge of
good and evil.

.Ge 2:10
And a river went out of Eden to water
the garden; and from
thence it was parted, and became into
four heads.

.Ge 2:11
The name of the first [is] Pison: that
[is] it which compasseth
the whole land of Havilah, where [there
is] gold;

.Ge 2:12
And the gold of that land [is] good:
there [is] bdellium and
the onyx stone.

.Ge 2:13
And the name of the second river [is]
Gihon: the same [is]
it that compasseth the whole land of
Ethiopia.

.Ge 2:14
And the name of the third river [is]
Hiddekel: that [is] it
which goeth toward the east of
Assyria. And the fourth river
[is] Euphrates.

.Ge 2:15
And the LORD God took the man, and put
him into the garden of
Eden to dress it and to keep it.

.Ge 2:16
And the LORD God commanded the man,
saying, Of every tree of
the garden thou mayest freely eat:

.Ge 2:17
But of the tree of the knowledge of
good and evil, thou shalt
not eat of it: for in the day that thou
eatest thereof thou
shalt surely die.

.Ge 2:18
And the LORD God said, [It is] not good
that the man should
be alone; I will make him an help meet
for him.

.Ge 2:19
And out of the ground the LORD God
formed every beast of the
field, and every fowl of the air;
and brought [them] unto Adam
to see what he would call them: and
whatsoever Adam called
every living creature, that [was]
the name thereof.

.Ge 2:20
And Adam gave names to all cattle,
and to the fowl of the air,
and to every beast of the field; but
for Adam there was not
found an help meet for him.

.Ge 2:21
And the LORD God caused a deep sleep
to fall upon Adam, and
he slept: and he took one of his ribs,
and closed up the flesh
instead thereof;

.Ge 2:22
And the rib, which the LORD God had
taken from man, made he
a woman, and brought her unto the man.

.Ge 2:23
And Adam said, This [is] now bone of
my bones, and flesh of
my flesh: she shall be called Woman,
because she was taken
out of Man.

.Ge 2:24
Therefore shall a man leave his father
and his mother, and
shall cleave unto his wife: and they
shall be one flesh.

.Ge 2:25
And they were both naked, the man and
his wife, and were not
ashamed.

.Ge 3:1
Now the serpent was more subtil than
any beast of the field
which the LORD God had made. And he
said unto the woman, Yea,
hath God said, Ye shall not eat of
every tree of the garden?

.Ge 3:2
And the woman said unto the serpent,
We may eat of the fruit
of the trees of the garden:

.Ge 3:3
But of the fruit of the tree which [is]
in the midst of the
garden, God hath said, Ye shall not
eat of it, neither shall
ye touch it, lest ye die.

.Ge 3:4
And the serpent said unto the woman,
Ye shall not surely die:

.Ge 3:5
For God doth know that in the day ye
eat thereof, then your
eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be
as gods, knowing good
and evil.

.Ge 3:6
And when the woman saw that the tree
[was] good for food, and
that it [was] pleasant to the eyes,
and a tree to be desired
to make [one] wise, she took of the
fruit thereof, and did eat,
and gave also unto her husband with
her; and he did eat.

.Ge 3:7
And the eyes of them both were opened,
and they knew that they
[were] naked; and they sewed fig leaves
together, and made
themselves aprons.

.Ge 3:8
And they heard the voice of the LORD
God walking in the garden
in the cool of the day: and Adam and
his wife hid themselves
from the presence of the LORD God
amongst the trees of the
garden.

.Ge 3:9
And the LORD God called unto Adam,
and said unto him, Where
[art] thou?

.Ge 3:10
And he said, I heard thy voice in the
garden, and I was afraid,
because I [was] naked; and I hid
myself.

.Ge 3:11
And he said, Who told thee that thou
[wast] naked? Hast thou
eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded
thee that thou shouldest
not eat?

.Ge 3:12
And the man said, The woman whom thou
gavest [to be] with me,
she gave me of the tree, and I did
eat.

.Ge 3:13
And the LORD God said unto the woman,
What [is] this [that]
thou hast done? And the woman said,
The serpent beguiled me,
and I did eat.

.Ge 3:14
And the LORD God said unto the serpent,
Because thou hast done
this, thou [art] cursed above all
cattle, and above every
beast of the field; upon thy belly
shalt thou go, and dust
shalt thou eat all the days of thy
life:

.Ge 3:15
And I will put enmity between thee and
the woman, and between
thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise
thy head, and thou
shalt bruise his heel.

.Ge 3:16
Unto the woman he said, I will greatly
multiply thy sorrow and
thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt
bring forth children;
and thy desire [shall be] to thy
husband, and he shall rule
over thee.

.Ge 3:17
And unto Adam he said, Because thou
hast hearkened unto
the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten
of the tree, of which
I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt
not eat of it: cursed
[is] the ground for thy sake; in sorrow
shalt thou eat [of]
it all the days of thy life;

.Ge 3:18
Thorns also and thistles shall it bring
forth to thee; and
thou shalt eat the herb of the field;

.Ge 3:19
In the sweat of thy face shalt thou
eat bread, till thou return
unto the ground; for out of it wast
thou taken: for dust thou
[art], and unto dust shalt thou
return.

.Ge 3:20
And Adam called his wife's name Eve;
because she was the mother
of all living.

.Ge 3:21
Unto Adam also and to his wife did the
LORD God make coats of
skins, and clothed them.

.Ge 3:22
And the LORD God said, Behold, the man
is become as one of us,
to know good and evil: and now, lest
he put forth his hand,
and take also of the tree of life,
and eat, and live for ever:

.Ge 3:23
Therefore the LORD God sent him forth
from the garden of Eden,
to till the ground from whence he was
taken.

.Ge 3:24
So he drove out the man; and he placed
at the east of the garden
of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword
which turned every way,
to keep the way of the tree of life.

.Ge 4:1
And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she
conceived, and bare Cain,
and said, I have gotten a man from the
LORD.

.Ge 4:2
And she again bare his brother
Abel. And Abel was a keeper of
sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the
ground.

.Ge 4:3
And in process of time it came to pass,
that Cain brought of
the fruit of the ground an offering
unto the LORD.

.Ge 4:4
And Abel, he also brought of the
firstlings of his flock and
of the fat thereof. And the LORD had
respect unto Abel and to
his offering:

.Ge 4:5
But unto Cain and to his offering he
had not respect. And Cain
was very wroth, and his countenance
fell.

.Ge 4:6
And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art
thou wroth? and why is
thy countenance fallen?

.Ge 4:7
If thou doest well, shalt thou not be
accepted? and if thou
doest not well, sin lieth at the
door. And unto thee [shall be]
his desire, and thou shalt rule over
him.

.Ge 4:8
And Cain talked with Abel his brother:
and it came to pass,
when they were in the field, that Cain
rose up against Abel
his brother, and slew him.

.Ge 4:9
And the LORD said unto Cain, Where [is]
Abel thy brother? And
he said, I know not: [Am] I my
brother's keeper?

.Ge 4:10
And he said, What hast thou done? the
voice of thy brother's
blood crieth unto me from the ground.

.Ge 4:11
And now [art] thou cursed from the
earth, which hath opened
her mouth to receive thy brother's
blood from thy hand;

.Ge 4:12
When thou tillest the ground, it shall
not henceforth yield
unto thee her strength; a fugitive and
a vagabond shalt thou
be in the earth.

.Ge 4:13
And Cain said unto the LORD, My
punishment [is] greater than
I can bear.

.Ge 4:14
Behold, thou hast driven me out this
day from the face of
the earth; and from thy face shall I
be hid; and I shall be a
fugitive and a vagabond in the earth;
and it shall come to pass,
[that] every one that findeth me shall
slay me.

.Ge 4:15
And the LORD said unto him, Therefore
whosoever slayeth Cain,
vengeance shall be taken on him
sevenfold. And the LORD set
a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him
should kill him.

.Ge 4:16
And Cain went out from the presence of
the LORD, and dwelt in
the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.

.Ge 4:17
And Cain knew his wife; and she
conceived, and bare Enoch:
and he builded a city, and called the
name of the city, after
the name of his son, Enoch.

.Ge 4:18
And unto Enoch was born Irad: and Irad
begat Mehujael: and
Mehujael begat Methusael: and Methusael
begat Lamech.

.Ge 4:19
And Lamech took unto him two wives:
the name of the one [was]
Adah, and the name of the other
Zillah.

.Ge 4:20
And Adah bare Jabal: he was the father
of such as dwell in
tents, and [of such as have] cattle.

.Ge 4:21
And his brother's name [was] Jubal:
he was the father of all
such as handle the harp and organ.

.Ge 4:22
And Zillah, she also bare Tubalcain,
an instructer of every
artificer in brass and iron: and the
sister of Tubalcain [was]
Naamah.

.Ge 4:23
And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah
and Zillah, Hear my voice;
ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my
speech: for I have slain
a man to my wounding, and a young man
to my hurt.

.Ge 4:24
If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold,
truly Lamech seventy and
sevenfold.

.Ge 4:25
And Adam knew his wife again; and she
bare a son, and called
his name Seth: For God, [said she],
hath appointed me another
seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.

.Ge 4:26
And to Seth, to him also there was born
a son; and he called his
name Enos: then began men to call upon
the name of the LORD.

.Ge 5:1
This [is] the book of the generations
of Adam. In the day that
God created man, in the likeness of
God made he him;

.Ge 5:2
Male and female created he them; and
blessed them, and called
their name Adam, in the day when they
were created.

.Ge 5:3
And Adam lived an hundred and thirty
years, and begat [a son]
in his own likeness, after his image;
and called his name Seth:

.Ge 5:4
And the days of Adam after he had
begotten Seth were eight
hundred years: and he begat sons and
daughters:

.Ge 5:5
And all the days that Adam lived were
nine hundred and thirty
years: and he died.

.Ge 5:6
And Seth lived an hundred and five
years, and begat Enos:

.Ge 5:7
And Seth lived after he begat Enos
eight hundred and seven
years, and begat sons and daughters:

.Ge 5:8
And all the days of Seth were nine
hundred and twelve years:
and he died.

.Ge 5:9
And Enos lived ninety years, and begat
Cainan:

.Ge 5:10
And Enos lived after he begat Cainan
eight hundred and fifteen
years, and begat sons and daughters:

.Ge 5:11
And all the days of Enos were nine
hundred and five years:
and he died.

.Ge 5:12
And Cainan lived seventy years, and
begat Mahalaleel:

.Ge 5:13
And Cainan lived after he begat
Mahalaleel eight hundred and
forty years, and begat sons and
daughters:

.Ge 5:14
And all the days of Cainan were nine
hundred and ten years:
and he died.

.Ge 5:15
And Mahalaleel lived sixty and five
years, and begat Jared:

.Ge 5:16
And Mahalaleel lived after he begat
Jared eight hundred and
thirty years, and begat sons and
daughters:

.Ge 5:17
And all the days of Mahalaleel were
eight hundred ninety and
five years: and he died.

.Ge 5:18
And Jared lived an hundred sixty and
two years, and he begat
Enoch:

.Ge 5:19
And Jared lived after he begat Enoch
eight hundred years,
and begat sons and daughters:

.Ge 5:20
And all the days of Jared were nine
hundred sixty and two years:
and he died.

.Ge 5:21
And Enoch lived sixty and five years,
and begat Methuselah:

.Ge 5:22
And Enoch walked with God after he
begat Methuselah three
hundred years, and begat sons and
daughters:

.Ge 5:23
And all the days of Enoch were three
hundred sixty and five
years:

.Ge 5:24
And Enoch walked with God: and he [was]
not; for God took him.

.Ge 5:25
And Methuselah lived an hundred eighty
and seven years, and
begat Lamech:

.Ge 5:26
And Methuselah lived after he begat
Lamech seven hundred eighty
and two years, and begat sons and
daughters:

.Ge 5:27
And all the days of Methuselah were
nine hundred sixty and
nine years: and he died.

.Ge 5:28
And Lamech lived an hundred eighty and
two years, and begat
a son:

.Ge 5:29
And he called his name Noah, saying,
This [same] shall comfort
us concerning our work and toil of our
hands, because of the
ground which the LORD hath cursed.

.Ge 5:30
And Lamech lived after he begat Noah
five hundred ninety and
five years, and begat sons and
daughters:

.Ge 5:31
And all the days of Lamech were seven
hundred seventy and
seven years: and he died.

.Ge 5:32
And Noah was five hundred years old:
and Noah begat Shem, Ham,
and Japheth.

.Ge 6:1
And it came to pass, when men began to
multiply on the face
of the earth, and daughters were born
unto them,

.Ge 6:2
That the sons of God saw the daughters
of men that they [were]
fair; and they took them wives of all
which they chose.

.Ge 6:3
And the LORD said, My spirit shall not
always strive with man,
for that he also [is] flesh: yet his
days shall be an hundred
and twenty years.

.Ge 6:4
There were giants in the earth in those
days; and also after
that, when the sons of God came in unto
the daughters of men,
and they bare [children] to them,
the same [became] mighty
men which [were] of old, men of
renown.

.Ge 6:5
And GOD saw that the wickedness of man
[was] great in the earth,
and [that] every imagination of the
thoughts of his heart
[was] only evil continually.

.Ge 6:6
And it repented the LORD that he had
made man on the earth,
and it grieved him at his heart.

.Ge 6:7
And the LORD said, I will destroy man
whom I have created from
the face of the earth; both man, and
beast, and the creeping
thing, and the fowls of the air; for
it repenteth me that I
have made them.

.Ge 6:8
But Noah found grace in the eyes of
the LORD.

.Ge 6:9
These [are] the generations of Noah:
Noah was a just man [and]
perfect in his generations, [and]
Noah walked with God.

.Ge 6:10
And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham,
and Japheth.

.Ge 6:11
The earth also was corrupt before God,
and the earth was filled
with violence.

.Ge 6:12
And God looked upon the earth, and,
behold, it was corrupt;
for all flesh had corrupted his way
upon the earth.

.Ge 6:13
And God said unto Noah, The end of all
flesh is come before
me; for the earth is filled with
violence through them; and,
behold, I will destroy them with the
earth.

.Ge 6:14
Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms
shalt thou make in the
ark, and shalt pitch it within and
without with pitch.

.Ge 6:15
And this [is the fashion] which thou
shalt make it [of]:
The length of the ark [shall be] three
hundred cubits, the
breadth of it fifty cubits, and the
height of it thirty cubits.

.Ge 6:16
A window shalt thou make to the ark,
and in a cubit shalt thou
finish it above; and the door of the
ark shalt thou set in
the side thereof; [with] lower, second,
and third [stories]
shalt thou make it.

.Ge 6:17
And, behold, I, even I, do bring a
flood of waters upon the
earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein
[is] the breath of life,
from under heaven; [and] every thing
that [is] in the earth
shall die.

.Ge 6:18
But with thee will I establish my
covenant; and thou shalt come
into the ark, thou, and thy sons,
and thy wife, and thy sons'
wives with thee.

.Ge 6:19
And of every living thing of all flesh,
two of every [sort]
shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep
[them] alive with thee;
they shall be male and female.

.Ge 6:20
Of fowls after their kind, and of
cattle after their kind,
of every creeping thing of the earth
after his kind, two of
every [sort] shall come unto thee,
to keep [them] alive.

.Ge 6:21
And take thou unto thee of all food
that is eaten, and thou
shalt gather [it] to thee; and it shall
be for food for thee,
and for them.

.Ge 6:22
Thus did Noah; according to all that
God commanded him, so
did he.

.Ge 7:1
And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou
and all thy house into
the ark; for thee have I seen righteous
before me in this
generation.

.Ge 7:2
Of every clean beast thou shalt take
to thee by sevens, the
male and his female: and of beasts that
[are] not clean by two,
the male and his female.

.Ge 7:3
Of fowls also of the air by sevens,
the male and the female;
to keep seed alive upon the face of
all the earth.

.Ge 7:4
For yet seven days, and I will cause
it to rain upon the earth
forty days and forty nights; and every
living substance that
I have made will I destroy from off
the face of the earth.

.Ge 7:5
And Noah did according unto all that
the LORD commanded him.

.Ge 7:6
And Noah [was] six hundred years old
when the flood of waters
was upon the earth.

.Ge 7:7
And Noah went in, and his sons, and
his wife, and his sons'
wives with him, into the ark, because
of the waters of the
flood.

.Ge 7:8
Of clean beasts, and of beasts that
[are] not clean, and of
fowls, and of every thing that creepeth
upon the earth,

.Ge 7:9
There went in two and two unto Noah
into the ark, the male
and the female, as God had commanded
Noah.

.Ge 7:10
And it came to pass after seven days,
that the waters of the
flood were upon the earth.

.Ge 7:11
In the six hundredth year of Noah's
life, in the second month,
the seventeenth day of the month,
the same day were all the
fountains of the great deep broken up,
and the windows of
heaven were opened.

.Ge 7:12
And the rain was upon the earth forty
days and forty nights.

.Ge 7:13
In the selfsame day entered Noah,
and Shem, and Ham, and
Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's
wife, and the three
wives of his sons with them, into the
ark;

.Ge 7:14
They, and every beast after his kind,
and all the cattle after
their kind, and every creeping thing
that creepeth upon the
earth after his kind, and every fowl
after his kind, every
bird of every sort.

.Ge 7:15
And they went in unto Noah into the
ark, two and two of all
flesh, wherein [is] the breath of
life.

.Ge 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.

.Ge 7:17
And the flood was forty days upon the
earth; and the waters
increased, and bare up the ark, and it
was lift up above the
earth.

.Ge 7:18
And the waters prevailed, and were
increased greatly upon the
earth; and the ark went upon the face
of the waters.

.Ge 7:19
And the waters prevailed exceedingly
upon the earth; and all the
high hills, that [were] under the whole
heaven, were covered.

.Ge 7:20
Fifteen cubits upward did the waters
prevail; and the mountains
were covered.

.Ge 7:21
And all flesh died that moved upon the
earth, both of fowl,
and of cattle, and of beast, and of
every creeping thing that
creepeth upon the earth, and every
man:

.Ge 7:22
All in whose nostrils [was] the breath
of life, of all that
[was] in the dry [land], died.

.Ge 7:23
And every living substance was
destroyed which was upon the face
of the ground, both man, and cattle,
and the creeping things,
and the fowl of the heaven; and they
were destroyed from the
earth: and Noah only remained [alive],
and they that [were]
with him in the ark.

.Ge 7:24
And the waters prevailed upon the earth
an hundred and fifty
days.

.Ge 8:1
And God remembered Noah, and every
living thing, and all the
cattle that [was] with him in the ark:
and God made a wind to
pass over the earth, and the waters
asswaged;

.Ge 8:2
The fountains also of the deep and the
windows of heaven were
stopped, and the rain from heaven was
restrained;

.Ge 8:3
And the waters returned from off the
earth continually: and
after the end of the hundred and fifty
days the waters were
abated.

.Ge 8:4
And the ark rested in the seventh
month, on the seventeenth
day of the month, upon the mountains
of Ararat.

.Ge 8:5
And the waters decreased continually
until the tenth month:
in the tenth [month], on the first
[day] of the month, were
the tops of the mountains seen.

.Ge 8:6
And it came to pass at the end of forty
days, that Noah opened
the window of the ark which he had
made:

.Ge 8:7
And he sent forth a raven, which went
forth to and fro, until
the waters were dried up from off the
earth.

.Ge 8:8
Also he sent forth a dove from him,
to see if the waters were
abated from off the face of the
ground;

.Ge 8:9
But the dove found no rest for the sole
of her foot, and
she returned unto him into the ark,
for the waters [were]
on the face of the whole earth: then
he put forth his hand,
and took her, and pulled her in unto
him into the ark.

.Ge 8:10
And he stayed yet other seven days;
and again he sent forth
the dove out of the ark;

.Ge 8:11
And the dove came in to him in the
evening; and, lo, in her
mouth [was] an olive leaf pluckt off:
so Noah knew that the
waters were abated from off the earth.

.Ge 8:12
And he stayed yet other seven days;
and sent forth the dove;
which returned not again unto him any
more.

.Ge 8:13
And it came to pass in the six
hundredth and first year, in the
first [month], the first [day] of the
month, the waters were
dried up from off the earth: and Noah
removed the covering of
the ark, and looked, and, behold,
the face of the ground was
dry.

.Ge 8:14
And in the second month, on the seven
and twentieth day of
the month, was the earth dried.

.Ge 8:15
And God spake unto Noah, saying,

.Ge 8:16
Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy
wife, and thy sons, and
thy sons' wives with thee.

.Ge 8:17
Bring forth with thee every living
thing that [is] with thee,
of all flesh, [both] of fowl, and of
cattle, and of every
creeping thing that creepeth upon the
earth; that they may
breed abundantly in the earth, and be
fruitful, and multiply
upon the earth.

.Ge 8:18
And Noah went forth, and his sons,
and his wife, and his sons'
wives with him:

.Ge 8:19
Every beast, every creeping thing,
and every fowl, [and]
whatsoever creepeth upon the earth,
after their kinds, went
forth out of the ark.

.Ge 8:20
And Noah builded an altar unto the
LORD; and took of every clean
beast, and of every clean fowl, and
offered burnt offerings
on the altar.

.Ge 8:21
And the LORD smelled a sweet savour;
and the LORD said in his
heart, I will not again curse the
ground any more for man's
sake; for the imagination of man's
heart [is] evil from his
youth; neither will I again smite any
more every thing living,
as I have done.

.Ge 8:22
While the earth remaineth, seedtime
and harvest, and cold and
heat, and summer and winter, and day
and night shall not cease.

.Ge 9:1
And God blessed Noah and his sons,
and said unto them, Be
fruitful, and multiply, and replenish
the earth.

.Ge 9:2
And the fear of you and the dread of
you shall be upon every
beast of the earth, and upon every fowl
of the air, upon all
that moveth [upon] the earth, and upon
all the fishes of the
sea; into your hand are they
delivered.

.Ge 9:3
Every moving thing that liveth shall
be meat for you; even as
the green herb have I given you all
things.

.Ge 9:4
But flesh with the life thereof,
[which is] the blood thereof,
shall ye not eat.

.Ge 9:5
And surely your blood of your lives
will I require; at the hand
of every beast will I require it,
and at the hand of man; at
the hand of every man's brother will
I require the life of man.

.Ge 9:6
Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man
shall his blood be shed:
for in the image of God made he man.

.Ge 9:7
And you, be ye fruitful, and multiply;
bring forth abundantly
in the earth, and multiply therein.

.Ge 9:8
And God spake unto Noah, and to his
sons with him, saying,

.Ge 9:9
And I, behold, I establish my covenant
with you, and with your
seed after you;

.Ge 9:10
And with every living creature that
[is] with you, of the
fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast
of the earth with you;
from all that go out of the ark, to
every beast of the earth.

.Ge 9:11
And I will establish my covenant with
you; neither shall all
flesh be cut off any more by the waters
of a flood; neither
shall there any more be a flood to
destroy the earth.

.Ge 9:12
And God said, This [is] the token of
the covenant which I
make between me and you and every
living creature that [is]
with you, for perpetual generations:

.Ge 9:13
I do set my bow in the cloud, and it
shall be for a token of
a covenant between me and the earth.

.Ge 9:14
And it shall come to pass, when I bring
a cloud over the earth,
that the bow shall be seen in the
cloud:

.Ge 9:15
And I will remember my covenant, which
[is] between me and you
and every living creature of all flesh;
and the waters shall
no more become a flood to destroy all
flesh.

.Ge 9:16
And the bow shall be in the cloud;
and I will look upon it,
that I may remember the everlasting
covenant between God and
every living creature of all flesh that
[is] upon the earth.

.Ge 9:17
And God said unto Noah, This [is]
the token of the covenant,
which I have established between me
and all flesh that [is]
upon the earth.

.Ge 9:18
And the sons of Noah, that went forth
of the ark, were Shem,
and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham [is]
the father of Canaan.

.Ge 9:19
These [are] the three sons of Noah:
and of them was the whole
earth overspread.

.Ge 9:20
And Noah began [to be] an husbandman,
and he planted a
vineyard:

.Ge 9:21
And he drank of the wine, and was
drunken; and he was uncovered
within his tent.

.Ge 9:22
And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the
nakedness of his father,
and told his two brethren without.

.Ge 9:23
And Shem and Japheth took a garment,
and laid [it] upon both
their shoulders, and went backward,
and covered the nakedness
of their father; and their faces [were]
backward, and they
saw not their father's nakedness.

.Ge 9:24
And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew
what his younger son
had done unto him.

.Ge 9:25
And he said, Cursed [be] Canaan;
a servant of servants shall
he be unto his brethren.

.Ge 9:26
And he said, Blessed [be] the LORD God
of Shem; and Canaan
shall be his servant.

.Ge 9:27
God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall
dwell in the tents of
Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.

.Ge 9:28
And Noah lived after the flood three
hundred and fifty years.

.Ge 9:29
And all the days of Noah were nine
hundred and fifty years:
and he died.

.Ge 10:1
Now these [are] the generations of the
sons of Noah, Shem,
Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were
sons born after the flood.

.Ge 10:2
The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog,
and Madai, and Javan,
and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.

.Ge 10:3
And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz, and
Riphath, and Togarmah.

.Ge 10:4
And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and
Tarshish, Kittim, and
Dodanim.

.Ge 10:5
By these were the isles of the Gentiles
divided in their lands;
every one after his tongue, after their
families, in their
nations.

.Ge 10:6
And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim,
and Phut, and Canaan.

.Ge 10:7
And the sons of Cush; Seba, and
Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah,
and Sabtecha: and the sons of Raamah;
Sheba, and Dedan.

.Ge 10:8
And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be
a mighty one in the
earth.

.Ge 10:9
He was a mighty hunter before the LORD:
wherefore it is said,
Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before
the LORD.

.Ge 10:10
And the beginning of his kingdom was
Babel, and Erech, and
Accad, and Calneh, in the land of
Shinar.

.Ge 10:11
Out of that land went forth Asshur,
and builded Nineveh,
and the city Rehoboth, and Calah,

.Ge 10:12
And Resen between Nineveh and Calah:
the same [is] a great
city.

.Ge 10:13
And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim,
and Lehabim, and
Naphtuhim,

.Ge 10:14
And Pathrusim, and Casluhim, (out of
whom came Philistim,)
and Caphtorim.

.Ge 10:15
And Canaan begat Sidon his firstborn,
and Heth,

.Ge 10:16
And the Jebusite, and the Amorite,
and the Girgasite,

.Ge 10:17
And the Hivite, and the Arkite, and
the Sinite,

.Ge 10:18
And the Arvadite, and the Zemarite,
and the Hamathite: and
afterward were the families of the
Canaanites spread abroad.

.Ge 10:19
And the border of the Canaanites was
from Sidon, as thou comest
to Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest,
unto Sodom, and Gomorrah,
and Admah, and Zeboim, even unto
Lasha.

.Ge 10:20
These [are] the sons of Ham, after
their families, after their
tongues, in their countries, [and]
in their nations.

.Ge 10:21
Unto Shem also, the father of all the
children of Eber, the
brother of Japheth the elder, even to
him were [children] born.

.Ge 10:22
The children of Shem; Elam, and Asshur,
and Arphaxad, and Lud,
and Aram.

.Ge 10:23
And the children of Aram; Uz, and Hul,
and Gether, and Mash.

.Ge 10:24
And Arphaxad begat Salah; and Salah
begat Eber.

.Ge 10:25
And unto Eber were born two sons:
the name of one [was] Peleg;
for in his days was the earth divided;
and his brother's name
[was] Joktan.

.Ge 10:26
And Joktan begat Almodad, and Sheleph,
and Hazarmaveth, and
Jerah,

.Ge 10:27
And Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah,

.Ge 10:28
And Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba,

.Ge 10:29
And Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab:
all these [were] the sons
of Joktan.

.Ge 10:30
And their dwelling was from Mesha,
as thou goest unto Sephar
a mount of the east.

.Ge 10:31
These [are] the sons of Shem, after
their families, after
their tongues, in their lands, after
their nations.

.Ge 10:32
These [are] the families of the sons
of Noah, after their
generations, in their nations: and by
these were the nations
divided in the earth after the flood.

.Ge 11:1
And the whole earth was of one
language, and of one speech.

.Ge 11:2
And it came to pass, as they journeyed
from the east, that
they found a plain in the land of
Shinar; and they dwelt there.

.Ge 11:3
And they said one to another, Go to,
let us make brick, and
burn them throughly. And they had brick
for stone, and slime
had they for morter.

.Ge 11:4
And they said, Go to, let us build us
a city and a tower,
whose top [may reach] unto heaven;
and let us make us a name,
lest we be scattered abroad upon the
face of the whole earth.

.Ge 11:5
And the LORD came down to see the city
and the tower, which
the children of men builded.

.Ge 11:6
And the LORD said, Behold, the people
[is] one, and they have
all one language; and this they begin
to do: and now nothing
will be restrained from them, which
they have imagined to do.

.Ge 11:7
Go to, let us go down, and there
confound their language,
that they may not understand one
another's speech.

.Ge 11:8
So the LORD scattered them abroad from
thence upon the face
of all the earth: and they left off to
build the city.

.Ge 11:9
Therefore is the name of it called
Babel; because the LORD
did there confound the language of all
the earth: and from
thence did the LORD scatter them abroad
upon the face of all
the earth.

.Ge 11:10
These [are] the generations of Shem:
Shem [was] an hundred
years old, and begat Arphaxad two years
after the flood:

.Ge 11:11
And Shem lived after he begat Arphaxad
five hundred years,
and begat sons and daughters.

.Ge 11:12
And Arphaxad lived five and thirty
years, and begat Salah:

.Ge 11:13
And Arphaxad lived after he begat Salah
four hundred and three
years, and begat sons and daughters.

.Ge 11:14
And Salah lived thirty years, and begat
Eber:

.Ge 11:15
And Salah lived after he begat Eber
four hundred and three
years, and begat sons and daughters.

.Ge 11:16
And Eber lived four and thirty years,
and begat Peleg:

.Ge 11:17
And Eber lived after he begat Peleg
four hundred and thirty
years, and begat sons and daughters.

.Ge 11:18
And Peleg lived thirty years, and begat
Reu:

.Ge 11:19
And Peleg lived after he begat Reu two
hundred and nine years,
and begat sons and daughters.

.Ge 11:20
And Reu lived two and thirty years,
and begat Serug:

.Ge 11:21
And Reu lived after he begat Serug two
hundred and seven years,
and begat sons and daughters.

.Ge 11:22
And Serug lived thirty years, and begat
Nahor:

.Ge 11:23
And Serug lived after he begat Nahor
two hundred years, and
begat sons and daughters.

.Ge 11:24
And Nahor lived nine and twenty years,
and begat Terah:

.Ge 11:25
And Nahor lived after he begat Terah
an hundred and nineteen
years, and begat sons and daughters.

.Ge 11:26
And Terah lived seventy years, and
begat Abram, Nahor, and
Haran.

.Ge 11:27
Now these [are] the generations of
Terah: Terah begat Abram,
Nahor, and Haran; and Haran begat Lot.

.Ge 11:28
And Haran died before his father Terah
in the land of his
nativity, in Ur of the Chaldees.

.Ge 11:29
And Abram and Nahor took them wives:
the name of Abram's wife
[was] Sarai; and the name of Nahor's
wife, Milcah, the daughter
of Haran, the father of Milcah, and
the father of Iscah.

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

.Ge 11:31
And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot
the son of Haran his son's
son, and Sarai his daughter in law,
his son Abram's wife; and
they went forth with them from Ur of
the Chaldees, to go into
the land of Canaan; and they came unto
Haran, and dwelt there.

.Ge 11:32
And the days of Terah were two hundred
and five years: and
Terah died in Haran.

.Ge 12:1
Now the LORD had said unto Abram,
Get thee out of thy country,
and from thy kindred, and from thy
father's house, unto a land
that I will shew thee:

.Ge 12:2
And I will make of thee a great nation,
and I will bless thee,
and make thy name great; and thou shalt
be a blessing:

.Ge 12:3
And I will bless them that bless thee,
and curse him that
curseth thee: and in thee shall all
families of the earth be
blessed.

.Ge 12:4
So Abram departed, as the LORD had
spoken unto him; and Lot
went with him: and Abram [was] seventy
and five years old when
he departed out of Haran.

.Ge 12:5
And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot
his brother's son,
and all their substance that they had
gathered, and the souls
that they had gotten in Haran; and they
went forth to go into
the land of Canaan; and into the land
of Canaan they came.

.Ge 12:6
And Abram passed through the land unto
the place of Sichem, unto
the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite
[was] then in the land.

.Ge 12:7
And the LORD appeared unto Abram,
and said, Unto thy seed will
I give this land: and there builded he
an altar unto the LORD,
who appeared unto him.

.Ge 12:8
And he removed from thence unto a
mountain on the east of
Bethel, and pitched his tent, [having]
Bethel on the west,
and Hai on the east: and there he
builded an altar unto the
LORD, and called upon the name of the
LORD.

.Ge 12:9
And Abram journeyed, going on still
toward the south.

.Ge 12:10
And there was a famine in the land:
and Abram went down into
Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine
[was] grievous in the
land.

.Ge 12:11
And it came to pass, when he was come
near to enter into Egypt,
that he said unto Sarai his wife,
Behold now, I know that thou
[art] a fair woman to look upon:

.Ge 12:12
Therefore it shall come to pass, when
the Egyptians shall see
thee, that they shall say, This [is]
his wife: and they will
kill me, but they will save thee
alive.

.Ge 12:13
Say, I pray thee, thou [art] my sister:
that it may be well
with me for thy sake; and my soul shall
live because of thee.

.Ge 12:14
And it came to pass, that, when Abram
was come into Egypt,
the Egyptians beheld the woman that she
[was] very fair.

.Ge 12:15
The princes also of Pharaoh saw her,
and commended her before
Pharaoh: and the woman was taken into
Pharaoh's house.

.Ge 12:16
And he entreated Abram well for her
sake: and he had sheep,
and oxen, and he asses, and
menservants, and maidservants,
and she asses, and camels.

.Ge 12:17
And the LORD plagued Pharaoh and his
house with great plagues
because of Sarai Abram's wife.

.Ge 12:18
And Pharaoh called Abram, and said,
What [is] this [that]
thou hast done unto me? why didst thou
not tell me that she
[was] thy wife?

.Ge 12:19
Why saidst thou, She [is] my sister? so
I might have taken
her to me to wife: now therefore behold
thy wife, take [her],
and go thy way.

.Ge 12:20
And Pharaoh commanded [his] men
concerning him: and they sent
him away, and his wife, and all that
he had.

.Ge 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.

.Ge 13:2
And Abram [was] very rich in cattle,
in silver, and in gold.

.Ge 13:3
And he went on his journeys from the
south even to Bethel,
unto the place where his tent had been
at the beginning,
between Bethel and Hai;

.Ge 13:4
Unto the place of the altar, which he
had made there at the
first: and there Abram called on the
name of the LORD.

.Ge 13:5
And Lot also, which went with Abram,
had flocks, and herds,
and tents.

.Ge 13:6
And the land was not able to bear them,
that they might dwell
together: for their substance was
great, so that they could
not dwell together.

.Ge 13:7
And there was a strife between the
herdmen of Abram's cattle
and the herdmen of Lot's cattle: and
the Canaanite and the
Perizzite dwelled then in the land.

.Ge 13:8
And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be
no strife, I pray thee,
between me and thee, and between my
herdmen and thy herdmen;
for we [be] brethren.

.Ge 13:9
[Is] not the whole land before
thee? separate thyself, I pray
thee, from me: if [thou wilt take]
the left hand, then I will
go to the right; or if [thou depart]
to the right hand, then
I will go to the left.

.Ge 13:10
And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld
all the plain of
Jordan, that it [was] well watered
every where, before the LORD
destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, [even]
as the garden of the LORD,
like the land of Egypt, as thou comest
unto Zoar.

.Ge 13:11
Then Lot chose him all the plain of
Jordan; and Lot journeyed
east: and they separated themselves
the one from the other.

.Ge 13:12
Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan,
and Lot dwelled in the
cities of the plain, and pitched [his]
tent toward Sodom.

.Ge 13:13
But the men of Sodom [were] wicked and
sinners before the LORD
exceedingly.

.Ge 13:14
And the LORD said unto Abram, after
that Lot was separated
from him, Lift up now thine eyes,
and look from the place where
thou art northward, and southward,
and eastward, and westward:

.Ge 13:15
For all the land which thou seest,
to thee will I give it,
and to thy seed for ever.

.Ge 13:16
And I will make thy seed as the dust
of the earth: so that if
a man can number the dust of the earth,
[then] shall thy seed
also be numbered.

.Ge 13:17
Arise, walk through the land in the
length of it and in the
breadth of it; for I will give it unto
thee.

.Ge 13:18
Then Abram removed [his] tent, and came
and dwelt in the plain
of Mamre, which [is] in Hebron, and
built there an altar unto
the LORD.

.Ge 14:1
And it came to pass in the days of
Amraphel king of Shinar,
Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer
king of Elam, and Tidal
king of nations;

.Ge 14:2
[That these] made war with Bera king
of Sodom, and with Birsha
king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah,
and Shemeber king of
Zeboiim, and the king of Bela, which
is Zoar.

.Ge 14:3
All these were joined together in the
vale of Siddim, which
is the salt sea.

.Ge 14:4
Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer,
and in the thirteenth
year they rebelled.

.Ge 14:5
And in the fourteenth year came
Chedorlaomer, and the kings that
[were] with him, and smote the Rephaims
in Ashteroth Karnaim,
and the Zuzims in Ham, and the Emims
in Shaveh Kiriathaim,

.Ge 14:6
And the Horites in their mount Seir,
unto Elparan, which [is]
by the wilderness.

.Ge 14:7
And they returned, and came to
Enmishpat, which [is] Kadesh,
and smote all the country of the
Amalekites, and also the
Amorites, that dwelt in Hazezontamar.

.Ge 14:8
And there went out the king of Sodom,
and the king of Gomorrah,
and the king of Admah, and the king of
Zeboiim, and the king
of Bela (the same [is] Zoar;) and they
joined battle with them
in the vale of Siddim;

.Ge 14:9
With Chedorlaomer the king of Elam,
and with Tidal king of
nations, and Amraphel king of Shinar,
and Arioch king of
Ellasar; four kings with five.

.Ge 14:10
And the vale of Siddim [was full of]
slimepits; and the kings
of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell
there; and they that
remained fled to the mountain.

.Ge 14:11
And they took all the goods of Sodom
and Gomorrah, and all
their victuals, and went their way.

.Ge 14:12
And they took Lot, Abram's brother's
son, who dwelt in Sodom,
and his goods, and departed.

.Ge 14:13
And there came one that had escaped,
and told Abram the Hebrew;
for he dwelt in the plain of Mamre the
Amorite, brother of
Eshcol, and brother of Aner: and these
[were] confederate with
Abram.

.Ge 14:14
And when Abram heard that his brother
was taken captive, he
armed his trained [servants], born in
his own house, three
hundred and eighteen, and pursued
[them] unto Dan.

.Ge 14:15
And he divided himself against them,
he and his servants,
by night, and smote them, and pursued
them unto Hobah, which
[is] on the left hand of Damascus.

.Ge 14:16
And he brought back all the goods,
and also brought again his
brother Lot, and his goods, and the
women also, and the people.

.Ge 14:17
And the king of Sodom went out to meet
him after his return
from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer,
and of the kings that [were]
with him, at the valley of Shaveh,
which [is] the king's dale.

.Ge 14:18
And Melchizedek king of Salem brought
forth bread and wine:
and he [was] the priest of the most
high God.

.Ge 14:19
And he blessed him, and said, Blessed
[be] Abram of the most
high God, possessor of heaven and
earth:

.Ge 14:20
And blessed be the most high God,
which hath delivered thine
enemies into thy hand. And he gave him
tithes of all.

.Ge 14:21
And the king of Sodom said unto Abram,
Give me the persons,
and take the goods to thyself.

.Ge 14:22
And Abram said to the king of Sodom,
I have lift up mine hand
unto the LORD, the most high God,
the possessor of heaven and
earth,

.Ge 14:23
That I will not [take] from a thread
even to a shoelatchet,
and that I will not take any thing that
[is] thine, lest thou
shouldest say, I have made Abram rich:

.Ge 14:24
Save only that which the young men have
eaten, and the portion
of the men which went with me, Aner,
Eshcol, and Mamre; let
them take their portion.

.Ge 15:1
After these things the word of the LORD
came unto Abram in
a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I
[am] thy shield, [and]
thy exceeding great reward.

.Ge 15:2
And Abram said, Lord GOD, what wilt
thou give me, seeing I go
childless, and the steward of my house
[is] this Eliezer of
Damascus?

.Ge 15:3
And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast
given no seed: and,
lo, one born in my house is mine heir.

.Ge 15:4
And, behold, the word of the LORD
[came] unto him, saying,
This shall not be thine heir; but he
that shall come forth
out of thine own bowels shall be thine
heir.

.Ge 15:5
And he brought him forth abroad, and
said, Look now toward
heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be
able to number them:
and he said unto him, So shall thy seed
be.

.Ge 15:6
And he believed in the LORD; and he
counted it to him for
righteousness.

.Ge 15:7
And he said unto him, I [am] the LORD
that brought thee out
of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee
this land to inherit it.

.Ge 15:8
And he said, Lord GOD, whereby shall
I know that I shall
inherit it?

.Ge 15:9
And he said unto him, Take me an heifer
of three years old,
and a she goat of three years old,
and a ram of three years old,
and a turtledove, and a young pigeon.

.Ge 15:10
And he took unto him all these, and
divided them in the midst,
and laid each piece one against
another: but the birds divided
he not.

.Ge 15:11
And when the fowls came down upon the
carcases, Abram drove
them away.

.Ge 15:12
And when the sun was going down, a deep
sleep fell upon Abram;
and, lo, an horror of great darkness
fell upon him.

.Ge 15:13
And he said unto Abram, Know of a
surety that thy seed shall
be a stranger in a land [that is]
not theirs, and shall serve
them; and they shall afflict them four
hundred years;

.Ge 15:14
And also that nation, whom they shall
serve, will I judge:
and afterward shall they come out with
great substance.

.Ge 15:15
And thou shalt go to thy fathers in
peace; thou shalt be buried
in a good old age.

.Ge 15:16
But in the fourth generation they shall
come hither again:
for the iniquity of the Amorites [is]
not yet full.

.Ge 15:17
And it came to pass, that, when the
sun went down, and it was
dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a
burning lamp that passed
between those pieces.

.Ge 15:18
In the same day the LORD made a
covenant with Abram, saying,
Unto thy seed have I given this land,
from the river of Egypt
unto the great river, the river
Euphrates:

.Ge 15:19
The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and
the Kadmonites,

.Ge 15:20
And the Hittites, and the Perizzites,
and the Rephaims,

.Ge 15:21
And the Amorites, and the Canaanites,
and the Girgashites,
and the Jebusites.

.Ge 16:1
Now Sarai Abram's wife bare him no
children: and she had an
handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name [was]
Hagar.

.Ge 16:2
And Sarai said unto Abram, Behold now,
the LORD hath restrained
me from bearing: I pray thee, go in
unto my maid; it may be
that I may obtain children by her. And
Abram hearkened to the
voice of Sarai.

.Ge 16:3
And Sarai Abram's wife took Hagar her
maid the Egyptian, after
Abram had dwelt ten years in the land
of Canaan, and gave her
to her husband Abram to be his wife.

.Ge 16:4
And he went in unto Hagar, and she
conceived: and when she saw
that she had conceived, her mistress
was despised in her eyes.

.Ge 16:5
And Sarai said unto Abram, My wrong
[be] upon thee: I have given
my maid into thy bosom; and when she
saw that she had conceived,
I was despised in her eyes: the LORD
judge between me and thee.

.Ge 16:6
But Abram said unto Sarai, Behold,
thy maid [is] in thy hand;
do to her as it pleaseth thee. And when
Sarai dealt hardly
with her, she fled from her face.

.Ge 16:7
And the angel of the LORD found her by
a fountain of water in
the wilderness, by the fountain in the
way to Shur.

.Ge 16:8
And he said, Hagar, Sarai's maid,
whence camest thou? and
whither wilt thou go? And she said,
I flee from the face of
my mistress Sarai.

.Ge 16:9
And the angel of the LORD said unto
her, Return to thy mistress,
and submit thyself under her hands.

.Ge 16:10
And the angel of the LORD said unto
her, I will multiply thy
seed exceedingly, that it shall not be
numbered for multitude.

.Ge 16:11
And the angel of the LORD said unto
her, Behold, thou [art]
with child, and shalt bear a son,
and shalt call his name
Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard
thy affliction.

.Ge 16:12
And he will be a wild man; his hand
[will be] against every
man, and every man's hand against him;
and he shall dwell in
the presence of all his brethren.

.Ge 16:13
And she called the name of the LORD
that spake unto her, Thou
God seest me: for she said, Have I also
here looked after him
that seeth me?

.Ge 16:14
Wherefore the well was called
Beerlahairoi; behold, [it is]
between Kadesh and Bered.

.Ge 16:15
And Hagar bare Abram a son: and Abram
called his son's name,
which Hagar bare, Ishmael.

.Ge 16:16
And Abram [was] fourscore and six years
old, when Hagar bare
Ishmael to Abram.

.Ge 17:1
And when Abram was ninety years old
and nine, the LORD appeared
to Abram, and said unto him, I [am]
the Almighty God; walk
before me, and be thou perfect.

.Ge 17:2
And I will make my covenant between me
and thee, and will
multiply thee exceedingly.

.Ge 17:3
And Abram fell on his face: and God
talked with him, saying,

.Ge 17:4
As for me, behold, my covenant [is]
with thee, and thou shalt
be a father of many nations.

.Ge 17:5
Neither shall thy name any more be
called Abram, but thy name
shall be Abraham; for a father of many
nations have I made
thee.

.Ge 17:6
And I will make thee exceeding
fruitful, and I will make
nations of thee, and kings shall come
out of thee.

.Ge 17:7
And I will establish my covenant
between me and thee and
thy seed after thee in their
generations for an everlasting
covenant, to be a God unto thee, and
to thy seed after thee.

.Ge 17:8
And I will give unto thee, and to thy
seed after thee, the
land wherein thou art a stranger,
all the land of Canaan,
for an everlasting possession; and I
will be their God.

.Ge 17:9
And God said unto Abraham, Thou shalt
keep my covenant
therefore, thou, and thy seed after
thee in their generations.

.Ge 17:10
This [is] my covenant, which ye shall
keep, between me and
you and thy seed after thee; Every man
child among you shall
be circumcised.

.Ge 17:11
And ye shall circumcise the flesh of
your foreskin; and it
shall be a token of the covenant
betwixt me and you.

.Ge 17:12
And he that is eight days old shall be
circumcised among you,
every man child in your generations,
he that is born in the
house, or bought with money of any
stranger, which [is] not
of thy seed.

.Ge 17:13
He that is born in thy house, and he
that is bought with thy
money, must needs be circumcised:
and my covenant shall be in
your flesh for an everlasting
covenant.

.Ge 17:14
And the uncircumcised man child whose
flesh of his foreskin is
not circumcised, that soul shall be
cut off from his people;
he hath broken my covenant.

.Ge 17:15
And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai
thy wife, thou shalt
not call her name Sarai, but Sarah
[shall] her name [be].

.Ge 17:16
And I will bless her, and give thee a
son also of her: yea,
I will bless her, and she shall be
[a mother] of nations;
kings of people shall be of her.

.Ge 17:17
Then Abraham fell upon his face, and
laughed, and said in his
heart, Shall [a child] be born unto
him that is an hundred
years old? and shall Sarah, that is
ninety years old, bear?

.Ge 17:18
And Abraham said unto God, O that
Ishmael might live before
thee!

.Ge 17:19
And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear
thee a son indeed;
and thou shalt call his name Isaac:
and I will establish my
covenant with him for an everlasting
covenant, [and] with his
seed after him.

.Ge 17:20
And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee:
Behold, I have
blessed him, and will make him
fruitful, and will multiply
him exceedingly; twelve princes shall
he beget, and I will
make him a great nation.

.Ge 17:21
But my covenant will I establish with
Isaac, which Sarah shall
bear unto thee at this set time in the
next year.

.Ge 17:22
And he left off talking with him,
and God went up from Abraham.

.Ge 17:23
And Abraham took Ishmael his son,
and all that were born in
his house, and all that were bought
with his money, every male
among the men of Abraham's house;
and circumcised the flesh of
their foreskin in the selfsame day,
as God had said unto him.

.Ge 17:24
And Abraham [was] ninety years old and
nine, when he was
circumcised in the flesh of his
foreskin.

.Ge 17:25
And Ishmael his son [was] thirteen
years old, when he was
circumcised in the flesh of his
foreskin.

.Ge 17:26
In the selfsame day was Abraham
circumcised, and Ishmael his
son.

.Ge 17:27
And all the men of his house, born in
the house, and bought
with money of the stranger, were
circumcised with him.

.Ge 18:1
And the LORD appeared unto him in the
plains of Mamre: and he
sat in the tent door in the heat of
the day;

.Ge 18:2
And he lift up his eyes and looked,
and, lo, three men stood
by him: and when he saw [them], he ran
to meet them from the
tent door, and bowed himself toward
the ground,

.Ge 18:3
And said, My Lord, if now I have found
favour in thy sight,
pass not away, I pray thee, from thy
servant:

.Ge 18:4
Let a little water, I pray you, be
fetched, and wash your feet,
and rest yourselves under the tree:

.Ge 18:5
And I will fetch a morsel of bread,
and comfort ye your hearts;
after that ye shall pass on: for
therefore are ye come to your
servant. And they said, So do, as thou
hast said.

.Ge 18:6
And Abraham hastened into the tent unto
Sarah, and said,
Make ready quickly three measures of
fine meal, knead [it],
and make cakes upon the hearth.

.Ge 18:7
And Abraham ran unto the herd, and
fetcht a calf tender and
good, and gave [it] unto a young man;
and he hasted to dress
it.

.Ge 18:8
And he took butter, and milk, and the
calf which he had dressed,
and set [it] before them; and he stood
by them under the tree,
and they did eat.

.Ge 18:9
And they said unto him, Where [is]
Sarah thy wife? And he said,
Behold, in the tent.

.Ge 18:10
And he said, I will certainly return
unto thee according to
the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy
wife shall have a son. And
Sarah heard [it] in the tent door,
which [was] behind him.

.Ge 18:11
Now Abraham and Sarah [were] old [and]
well stricken in age;
[and] it ceased to be with Sarah after
the manner of women.

.Ge 18:12
Therefore Sarah laughed within herself,
saying, After I am
waxed old shall I have pleasure, my
lord being old also?

.Ge 18:13
And the LORD said unto Abraham,
Wherefore did Sarah laugh,
saying, Shall I of a surety bear a
child, which am old?

.Ge 18:14
Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At
the time appointed
I will return unto thee, according to
the time of life, and
Sarah shall have a son.

.Ge 18:15
Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed
not; for she was
afraid. And he said, Nay; but thou
didst laugh.

.Ge 18:16
And the men rose up from thence, and
looked toward Sodom:
and Abraham went with them to bring
them on the way.

.Ge 18:17
And the LORD said, Shall I hide from
Abraham that thing which
I do;

.Ge 18:18
Seeing that Abraham shall surely become
a great and mighty
nation, and all the nations of the
earth shall be blessed in
him?

.Ge 18:19
For I know him, that he will command
his children and his
household after him, and they shall
keep the way of the LORD,
to do justice and judgment; that the
LORD may bring upon
Abraham that which he hath spoken of
him.

.Ge 18:20
And the LORD said, Because the cry of
Sodom and Gomorrah is
great, and because their sin is very
grievous;

.Ge 18:21
I will go down now, and see whether
they have done altogether
according to the cry of it, which is
come unto me; and if not,
I will know.

.Ge 18:22
And the men turned their faces from
thence, and went toward
Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before
the LORD.

.Ge 18:23
And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt
thou also destroy the
righteous with the wicked?

.Ge 18:24
Peradventure there be fifty righteous
within the city: wilt thou
also destroy and not spare the place
for the fifty righteous
that [are] therein?

.Ge 18:25
That be far from thee to do after this
manner, to slay the
righteous with the wicked: and that
the righteous should be
as the wicked, that be far from thee:
Shall not the Judge of
all the earth do right?

.Ge 18:26
And the LORD said, If I find in Sodom
fifty righteous within
the city, then I will spare all the
place for their sakes.

.Ge 18:27
And Abraham answered and said, Behold
now, I have taken upon
me to speak unto the Lord, which [am
but] dust and ashes:

.Ge 18:28
Peradventure there shall lack five of
the fifty righteous:
wilt thou destroy all the city for
[lack of] five? And he said,
If I find there forty and five, I will
not destroy [it].

.Ge 18:29
And he spake unto him yet again, and
said, Peradventure there
shall be forty found there. And he
said, I will not do [it]
for forty's sake.

.Ge 18:30
And he said [unto him], Oh let not the
Lord be angry, and I
will speak: Peradventure there shall
thirty be found there. And
he said, I will not do [it], if I find
thirty there.

.Ge 18:31
And he said, Behold now, I have taken
upon me to speak unto
the Lord: Peradventure there shall be
twenty found there. And
he said, I will not destroy [it] for
twenty's sake.

.Ge 18:32
And he said, Oh let not the Lord be
angry, and I will speak
yet but this once: Peradventure ten
shall be found there. And
he said, I will not destroy [it] for
ten's sake.

.Ge 18:33
And the LORD went his way, as soon as
he had left communing
with Abraham: and Abraham returned unto
his place.

.Ge 19:1
And there came two angels to Sodom at
even; and Lot sat in
the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing
[them] rose up to meet them;
and he bowed himself with his face
toward the ground;

.Ge 19:2
And he said, Behold now, my lords,
turn in, I pray you, into
your servant's house, and tarry all
night, and wash your feet,
and ye shall rise up early, and go on
your ways. And they said,
Nay; but we will abide in the street
all night.

.Ge 19:3
And he pressed upon them greatly;
and they turned in unto him,
and entered into his house; and he made
them a feast, and did
bake unleavened bread, and they did
eat.

.Ge 19:4
But before they lay down, the men of
the city, [even] the
men of Sodom, compassed the house
round, both old and young,
all the people from every quarter:

.Ge 19:5
And they called unto Lot, and said unto
him, Where [are] the
men which came in to thee this
night? bring them out unto us,
that we may know them.

.Ge 19:6
And Lot went out at the door unto them,
and shut the door
after him,

.Ge 19:7
And said, I pray you, brethren, do not
so wickedly.

.Ge 19:8
Behold now, I have two daughters which
have not known man; let
me, I pray you, bring them out unto
you, and do ye to them as
[is] good in your eyes: only unto these
men do nothing; for
therefore came they under the shadow
of my roof.

.Ge 19:9
And they said, Stand back. And they
said [again], This one
[fellow] came in to sojourn, and he
will needs be a judge: now
will we deal worse with thee, than with
them. And they pressed
sore upon the man, [even] Lot, and came
near to break the door.

.Ge 19:10
But the men put forth their hand,
and pulled Lot into the
house to them, and shut to the door.

.Ge 19:11
And they smote the men that [were]
at the door of the house
with blindness, both small and great:
so that they wearied
themselves to find the door.

.Ge 19:12
And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou
here any besides? son in
law, and thy sons, and thy daughters,
and whatsoever thou hast
in the city, bring [them] out of this
place:

.Ge 19:13
For we will destroy this place, because
the cry of them is
waxen great before the face of the
LORD; and the LORD hath
sent us to destroy it.

.Ge 19:14
And Lot went out, and spake unto his
sons in law, which married
his daughters, and said, Up, get you
out of this place; for
the LORD will destroy this city. But
he seemed as one that
mocked unto his sons in law.

.Ge 19:15
And when the morning arose, then the
angels hastened Lot,
saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy
two daughters, which
are here; lest thou be consumed in the
iniquity of the city.

.Ge 19:16
And while he lingered, the men laid
hold upon his hand, and upon
the hand of his wife, and upon the hand
of his two daughters;
the LORD being merciful unto him:
and they brought him forth,
and set him without the city.

.Ge 19:17
And it came to pass, when they had
brought them forth abroad,
that he said, Escape for thy life;
look not behind thee,
neither stay thou in all the plain;
escape to the mountain,
lest thou be consumed.

.Ge 19:18
And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so,
my Lord:

.Ge 19:19
Behold now, thy servant hath found
grace in thy sight, and
thou hast magnified thy mercy, which
thou hast shewed unto
me in saving my life; and I cannot
escape to the mountain,
lest some evil take me, and I die:

.Ge 19:20
Behold now, this city [is] near to flee
unto, and it [is] a
little one: Oh, let me escape thither,
([is] it not a little
one?) and my soul shall live.

.Ge 19:21
And he said unto him, See, I have
accepted thee concerning
this thing also, that I will not
overthrow this city, for the
which thou hast spoken.

.Ge 19:22
Haste thee, escape thither; for I
cannot do any thing till
thou be come thither. Therefore the
name of the city was called
Zoar.

.Ge 19:23
The sun was risen upon the earth when
Lot entered into Zoar.

.Ge 19:24
Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and
upon Gomorrah brimstone
and fire from the LORD out of heaven;

.Ge 19:25
And he overthrew those cities, and all
the plain, and all the
inhabitants of the cities, and that
which grew upon the ground.

.Ge 19:26
But his wife looked back from behind
him, and she became a
pillar of salt.

.Ge 19:27
And Abraham gat up early in the morning
to the place where he
stood before the LORD:

.Ge 19:28
And he looked toward Sodom and
Gomorrah, and toward all the
land of the plain, and beheld, and,
lo, the smoke of the
country went up as the smoke of a
furnace.

.Ge 19:29
And it came to pass, when God destroyed
the cities of the plain,
that God remembered Abraham, and sent
Lot out of the midst of
the overthrow, when he overthrew the
cities in the which Lot
dwelt.

.Ge 19:30
And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt
in the mountain, and
his two daughters with him; for he
feared to dwell in Zoar:
and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two
daughters.

.Ge 19:31
And the firstborn said unto the
younger, Our father [is] old,
and [there is] not a man in the earth
to come in unto us after
the manner of all the earth:

.Ge 19:32
Come, let us make our father drink
wine, and we will lie with
him, that we may preserve seed of our
father.

.Ge 19:33
And they made their father drink wine
that night: and the
firstborn went in, and lay with her
father; and he perceived
not when she lay down, nor when she
arose.

.Ge 19:34
And it came to pass on the morrow,
that the firstborn said
unto the younger, Behold, I lay
yesternight with my father:
let us make him drink wine this night
also; and go thou in,
[and] lie with him, that we may
preserve seed of our father.

.Ge 19:35
And they made their father drink wine
that night also: and
the younger arose, and lay with him;
and he perceived not when
she lay down, nor when she arose.

.Ge 19:36
Thus were both the daughters of Lot
with child by their father.

.Ge 19:37
And the firstborn bare a son, and
called his name Moab: the same
[is] the father of the Moabites unto
this day.

.Ge 19:38
And the younger, she also bare a son,
and called his name
Benammi: the same [is] the father of
the children of Ammon
unto this day.

.Ge 20:1
And Abraham journeyed from thence
toward the south country,
and dwelled between Kadesh and Shur,
and sojourned in Gerar.

.Ge 20:2
And Abraham said of Sarah his wife,
She [is] my sister: and
Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took
Sarah.

.Ge 20:3
But God came to Abimelech in a dream
by night, and said to him,
Behold, thou [art but] a dead man,
for the woman which thou
hast taken; for she [is] a man's wife.

.Ge 20:4
But Abimelech had not come near her:
and he said, Lord, wilt
thou slay also a righteous nation?

.Ge 20:5
Said he not unto me, She [is] my
sister? and she, even she
herself said, He [is] my brother:
in the integrity of my heart
and innocency of my hands have I done
this.

.Ge 20:6
And God said unto him in a dream, Yea,
I know that thou didst
this in the integrity of thy heart;
for I also withheld thee
from sinning against me: therefore
suffered I thee not to
touch her.

.Ge 20:7
Now therefore restore the man [his]
wife; for he [is] a prophet,
and he shall pray for thee, and thou
shalt live: and if thou
restore [her] not, know thou that thou
shalt surely die, thou,
and all that [are] thine.

.Ge 20:8
Therefore Abimelech rose early in the
morning, and called
all his servants, and told all these
things in their ears:
and the men were sore afraid.

.Ge 20:9
Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said
unto him, What hast
thou done unto us? and what have I
offended thee, that thou
hast brought on me and on my kingdom
a great sin? thou hast
done deeds unto me that ought not to
be done.

.Ge 20:10
And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What
sawest thou, that thou
hast done this thing?

.Ge 20:11
And Abraham said, Because I thought,
Surely the fear of God [is]
not in this place; and they will slay
me for my wife's sake.

.Ge 20:12
And yet indeed [she is] my sister; she
[is] the daughter of
my father, but not the daughter of my
mother; and she became
my wife.

.Ge 20:13
And it came to pass, when God caused
me to wander from my
father's house, that I said unto her,
This [is] thy kindness
which thou shalt shew unto me; at every
place whither we shall
come, say of me, He [is] my brother.

.Ge 20:14
And Abimelech took sheep, and oxen,
and menservants, and
womenservants, and gave [them] unto
Abraham, and restored him
Sarah his wife.

.Ge 20:15
And Abimelech said, Behold, my land
[is] before thee: dwell
where it pleaseth thee.

.Ge 20:16
And unto Sarah he said, Behold, I have
given thy brother
a thousand [pieces] of silver: behold,
he [is] to thee a
covering of the eyes, unto all that
[are] with thee, and with
all [other]: thus she was reproved.

.Ge 20:17
So Abraham prayed unto God: and God
healed Abimelech, and his
wife, and his maidservants; and they
bare [children].

.Ge 20:18
For the LORD had fast closed up all
the wombs of the house of
Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham's
wife.

.Ge 21:1
And the LORD visited Sarah as he had
said, and the LORD did
unto Sarah as he had spoken.

.Ge 21:2
For Sarah conceived, and bare Abraham
a son in his old age,
at the set time of which God had spoken
to him.

.Ge 21:3
And Abraham called the name of his son
that was born unto him,
whom Sarah bare to him, Isaac.

.Ge 21:4
And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac
being eight days old,
as God had commanded him.

.Ge 21:5
And Abraham was an hundred years old,
when his son Isaac was
born unto him.

.Ge 21:6
And Sarah said, God hath made me to
laugh, [so that] all that
hear will laugh with me.

.Ge 21:7
And she said, Who would have said unto
Abraham, that Sarah
should have given children suck? for
I have born [him] a son
in his old age.

.Ge 21:8
And the child grew, and was weaned:
and Abraham made a great
feast the [same] day that Isaac was
weaned.

.Ge 21:9
And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the
Egyptian, which she had
born unto Abraham, mocking.

.Ge 21:10
Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast
out this bondwoman and
her son: for the son of this bondwoman
shall not be heir with
my son, [even] with Isaac.

.Ge 21:11
And the thing was very grievous in
Abraham's sight because of
his son.

.Ge 21:12
And God said unto Abraham, Let it not
be grievous in thy
sight because of the lad, and because
of thy bondwoman; in
all that Sarah hath said unto thee,
hearken unto her voice;
for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.

.Ge 21:13
And also of the son of the bondwoman
will I make a nation,
because he [is] thy seed.

.Ge 21:14
And Abraham rose up early in the
morning, and took bread,
and a bottle of water, and gave [it]
unto Hagar, putting [it]
on her shoulder, and the child, and
sent her away: and she
departed, and wandered in the
wilderness of Beersheba.

.Ge 21:15
And the water was spent in the bottle,
and she cast the child
under one of the shrubs.

.Ge 21:16
And she went, and sat her down over
against [him] a good way
off, as it were a bowshot: for she
said, Let me not see the
death of the child. And she sat over
against [him], and lift
up her voice, and wept.

.Ge 21:17
And God heard the voice of the lad;
and the angel of God called
to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto
her, What aileth thee,
Hagar? fear not; for God hath heard
the voice of the lad where
he [is].

.Ge 21:18
Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him
in thine hand; for I will
make him a great nation.

.Ge 21:19
And God opened her eyes, and she saw
a well of water; and she
went, and filled the bottle with water,
and gave the lad drink.

.Ge 21:20
And God was with the lad; and he grew,
and dwelt in the
wilderness, and became an archer.

.Ge 21:21
And he dwelt in the wilderness of
Paran: and his mother took
him a wife out of the land of Egypt.

.Ge 21:22
And it came to pass at that time,
that Abimelech and Phichol
the chief captain of his host spake
unto Abraham, saying, God
[is] with thee in all that thou doest:

.Ge 21:23
Now therefore swear unto me here by
God that thou wilt not
deal falsely with me, nor with my son,
nor with my son's son:
[but] according to the kindness that
I have done unto thee, thou
shalt do unto me, and to the land
wherein thou hast sojourned.

.Ge 21:24
And Abraham said, I will swear.

.Ge 21:25
And Abraham reproved Abimelech because
of a well of water,
which Abimelech's servants had
violently taken away.

.Ge 21:26
And Abimelech said, I wot not who hath
done this thing: neither
didst thou tell me, neither yet heard I
[of it], but to day.

.Ge 21:27
And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and
gave them unto Abimelech;
and both of them made a covenant.

.Ge 21:28
And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the
flock by themselves.

.Ge 21:29
And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What
[mean] these seven ewe
lambs which thou hast set by
themselves?

.Ge 21:30
And he said, For [these] seven ewe
lambs shalt thou take of my
hand, that they may be a witness unto
me, that I have digged
this well.

.Ge 21:31
Wherefore he called that place
Beersheba; because there they
sware both of them.

.Ge 21:32
Thus they made a covenant at Beersheba:
then Abimelech rose up,
and Phichol the chief captain of his
host, and they returned
into the land of the Philistines.

.Ge 21:33
And [Abraham] planted a grove in
Beersheba, and called there
on the name of the LORD, the
everlasting God.

.Ge 21:34
And Abraham sojourned in the
Philistines' land many days.

.Ge 22:1
And it came to pass after these things,
that God did tempt
Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham:
and he said, Behold,
[here] I [am].

.Ge 22:2
And he said, Take now thy son, thine
only [son] Isaac, whom
thou lovest, and get thee into the land
of Moriah; and offer
him there for a burnt offering upon
one of the mountains which
I will tell thee of.

.Ge 22:3
And Abraham rose up early in the
morning, and saddled his ass,
and took two of his young men with him,
and Isaac his son,
and clave the wood for the burnt
offering, and rose up, and
went unto the place of which God had
told him.

.Ge 22:4
Then on the third day Abraham lifted
up his eyes, and saw the
place afar off.

.Ge 22:5
And Abraham said unto his young men,
Abide ye here with the
ass; and I and the lad will go yonder
and worship, and come
again to you.

.Ge 22:6
And Abraham took the wood of the burnt
offering, and laid
[it] upon Isaac his son; and he took
the fire in his hand,
and a knife; and they went both of them
together.

.Ge 22:7
And Isaac spake unto Abraham his
father, and said, My father:
and he said, Here [am] I, my son. And
he said, Behold the fire
and the wood: but where [is] the lamb
for a burnt offering?

.Ge 22:8
And Abraham said, My son, God will
provide himself a lamb for
a burnt offering: so they went both of
them together.

.Ge 22:9
And they came to the place which God
had told him of; and
Abraham built an altar there, and laid
the wood in order, and
bound Isaac his son, and laid him on
the altar upon the wood.

.Ge 22:10
And Abraham stretched forth his hand,
and took the knife to
slay his son.

.Ge 22:11
And the angel of the LORD called unto
him out of heaven,
and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he
said, Here [am] I.

.Ge 22:12
And he said, Lay not thine hand upon
the lad, neither do thou
any thing unto him: for now I know that
thou fearest God, seeing
thou hast not withheld thy son, thine
only [son] from me.

.Ge 22:13
And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and
looked, and behold behind
[him] a ram caught in a thicket by his
horns: and Abraham went
and took the ram, and offered him up
for a burnt offering in
the stead of his son.

.Ge 22:14
And Abraham called the name of that
place Jehovahjireh: as it is
said [to] this day, In the mount of
the LORD it shall be seen.

.Ge 22:15
And the angel of the LORD called unto
Abraham out of heaven
the second time,

.Ge 22:16
And said, By myself have I sworn,
saith the LORD, for because
thou hast done this thing, and hast
not withheld thy son,
thine only [son]:

.Ge 22:17
That in blessing I will bless thee,
and in multiplying I will
multiply thy seed as the stars of the
heaven, and as the sand
which [is] upon the sea shore; and thy
seed shall possess the
gate of his enemies;

.Ge 22:18
And in thy seed shall all the nations
of the earth be blessed;
because thou hast obeyed my voice.

.Ge 22:19
So Abraham returned unto his young men,
and they rose up and
went together to Beersheba; and Abraham
dwelt at Beersheba.

.Ge 22:20
And it came to pass after these things,
that it was told
Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she
hath also born children
unto thy brother Nahor;

.Ge 22:21
Huz his firstborn, and Buz his brother,
and Kemuel the father
of Aram,

.Ge 22:22
And Chesed, and Hazo, and Pildash,
and Jidlaph, and Bethuel.

.Ge 22:23
And Bethuel begat Rebekah: these eight
Milcah did bear to Nahor,
Abraham's brother.

.Ge 22:24
And his concubine, whose name [was]
Reumah, she bare also Tebah,
and Gaham, and Thahash, and Maachah.

.Ge 23:1
And Sarah was an hundred and seven and
twenty years old:
[these were] the years of the life of
Sarah.

.Ge 23:2
And Sarah died in Kirjatharba; the same
[is] Hebron in the
land of Canaan: and Abraham came to
mourn for Sarah, and to
weep for her.

.Ge 23:3
And Abraham stood up from before his
dead, and spake unto the
sons of Heth, saying,

.Ge 23:4
I [am] a stranger and a sojourner with
you: give me a possession
of a buryingplace with you, that I may
bury my dead out of my
sight.

.Ge 23:5
And the children of Heth answered
Abraham, saying unto him,

.Ge 23:6
Hear us, my lord: thou [art] a mighty
prince among us: in
the choice of our sepulchres bury thy
dead; none of us shall
withhold from thee his sepulchre,
but that thou mayest bury
thy dead.

.Ge 23:7
And Abraham stood up, and bowed himself
to the people of the
land, [even] to the children of Heth.

.Ge 23:8
And he communed with them, saying,
If it be your mind that I
should bury my dead out of my sight;
hear me, and intreat for
me to Ephron the son of Zohar,

.Ge 23:9
That he may give me the cave of
Machpelah, which he hath, which
[is] in the end of his field; for as
much money as it is worth
he shall give it me for a possession
of a buryingplace amongst
you.

.Ge 23:10
And Ephron dwelt among the children of
Heth: and Ephron the
Hittite answered Abraham in the
audience of the children of
Heth, [even] of all that went in at
the gate of his city,
saying,

.Ge 23:11
Nay, my lord, hear me: the field give
I thee, and the cave that
[is] therein, I give it thee; in the
presence of the sons of
my people give I it thee: bury thy
dead.

.Ge 23:12
And Abraham bowed down himself before
the people of the land.

.Ge 23:13
And he spake unto Ephron in the
audience of the people of the
land, saying, But if thou [wilt give
it], I pray thee, hear
me: I will give thee money for the
field; take [it] of me,
and I will bury my dead there.

.Ge 23:14
And Ephron answered Abraham, saying
unto him,

.Ge 23:15
My lord, hearken unto me: the land
[is worth] four hundred
shekels of silver; what [is] that
betwixt me and thee? bury
therefore thy dead.

.Ge 23:16
And Abraham hearkened unto Ephron;
and Abraham weighed to
Ephron the silver, which he had named
in the audience of the
sons of Heth, four hundred shekels of
silver, current [money]
with the merchant.

.Ge 23:17
And the field of Ephron, which [was]
in Machpelah, which [was]
before Mamre, the field, and the cave
which [was] therein,
and all the trees that [were] in the
field, that [were] in
all the borders round about, were made
sure

.Ge 23:18
Unto Abraham for a possession in the
presence of the children
of Heth, before all that went in at
the gate of his city.

.Ge 23:19
And after this, Abraham buried Sarah
his wife in the cave of
the field of Machpelah before Mamre:
the same [is] Hebron in
the land of Canaan.

.Ge 23:20
And the field, and the cave that [is]
therein, were made sure
unto Abraham for a possession of a
buryingplace by the sons
of Heth.

.Ge 24:1
And Abraham was old, [and] well
stricken in age: and the LORD
had blessed Abraham in all things.

.Ge 24:2
And Abraham said unto his eldest
servant of his house, that
ruled over all that he had, Put, I pray
thee, thy hand under
my thigh:

.Ge 24:3
And I will make thee swear by the LORD,
the God of heaven,
and the God of the earth, that thou
shalt not take a wife unto
my son of the daughters of the
Canaanites, among whom I dwell:

.Ge 24:4
But thou shalt go unto my country,
and to my kindred, and take
a wife unto my son Isaac.

.Ge 24:5
And the servant said unto him,
Peradventure the woman will
not be willing to follow me unto this
land: must I needs bring
thy son again unto the land from whence
thou camest?

.Ge 24:6
And Abraham said unto him, Beware thou
that thou bring not my
son thither again.

.Ge 24:7
The LORD God of heaven, which took me
from my father's house,
and from the land of my kindred, and
which spake unto me,
and that sware unto me, saying, Unto
thy seed will I give this
land; he shall send his angel before
thee, and thou shalt take
a wife unto my son from thence.

.Ge 24:8
And if the woman will not be willing
to follow thee, then
thou shalt be clear from this my oath:
only bring not my son
thither again.

.Ge 24:9
And the servant put his hand under the
thigh of Abraham his
master, and sware to him concerning
that matter.

.Ge 24:10
And the servant took ten camels of the
camels of his master, and
departed; for all the goods of his
master [were] in his hand:
and he arose, and went to Mesopotamia,
unto the city of Nahor.

.Ge 24:11
And he made his camels to kneel down
without the city by a
well of water at the time of the
evening, [even] the time that
women go out to draw [water].

.Ge 24:12
And he said, O LORD God of my master
Abraham, I pray thee,
send me good speed this day, and shew
kindness unto my master
Abraham.

.Ge 24:13
Behold, I stand [here] by the well of
water; and the daughters
of the men of the city come out to draw
water:

.Ge 24:14
And let it come to pass, that the
damsel to whom I shall say,
Let down thy pitcher, I pray thee,
that I may drink; and she
shall say, Drink, and I will give thy
camels drink also: [let
the same be] she [that] thou hast
appointed for thy servant
Isaac; and thereby shall I know that
thou hast shewed kindness
unto my master.

.Ge 24:15
And it came to pass, before he had done
speaking, that, behold,
Rebekah came out, who was born to
Bethuel, son of Milcah,
the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother,
with her pitcher upon
her shoulder.

.Ge 24:16
And the damsel [was] very fair to look
upon, a virgin, neither
had any man known her: and she went
down to the well, and
filled her pitcher, and came up.

.Ge 24:17
And the servant ran to meet her, and
said, Let me, I pray thee,
drink a little water of thy pitcher.

.Ge 24:18
And she said, Drink, my lord: and she
hasted, and let down
her pitcher upon her hand, and gave
him drink.

.Ge 24:19
And when she had done giving him drink,
she said, I will draw
[water] for thy camels also, until they
have done drinking.

.Ge 24:20
And she hasted, and emptied her pitcher
into the trough, and
ran again unto the well to draw
[water], and drew for all his
camels.

.Ge 24:21
And the man wondering at her held his
peace, to wit whether
the LORD had made his journey
prosperous or not.

.Ge 24:22
And it came to pass, as the camels had
done drinking, that
the man took a golden earring of half
a shekel weight, and
two bracelets for her hands of ten
[shekels] weight of gold;

.Ge 24:23
And said, Whose daughter [art]
thou? tell me, I pray thee:
is there room [in] thy father's house
for us to lodge in?

.Ge 24:24
And she said unto him, I [am] the
daughter of Bethuel the son
of Milcah, which she bare unto Nahor.

.Ge 24:25
She said moreover unto him, We have
both straw and provender
enough, and room to lodge in.

.Ge 24:26
And the man bowed down his head, and
worshipped the LORD.

.Ge 24:27
And he said, Blessed [be] the LORD God
of my master Abraham,
who hath not left destitute my master
of his mercy and his
truth: I [being] in the way, the LORD
led me to the house of
my master's brethren.

.Ge 24:28
And the damsel ran, and told [them of]
her mother's house
these things.

.Ge 24:29
And Rebekah had a brother, and his name
[was] Laban: and Laban
ran out unto the man, unto the well.

.Ge 24:30
And it came to pass, when he saw the
earring and bracelets upon
his sister's hands, and when he heard
the words of Rebekah his
sister, saying, Thus spake the man unto
me; that he came unto
the man; and, behold, he stood by the
camels at the well.

.Ge 24:31
And he said, Come in, thou blessed of
the LORD; wherefore
standest thou without? for I have
prepared the house, and room
for the camels.

.Ge 24:32
And the man came into the house: and
he ungirded his camels,
and gave straw and provender for the
camels, and water to wash
his feet, and the men's feet that
[were] with him.

.Ge 24:33
And there was set [meat] before him to
eat: but he said, I will
not eat, until I have told mine
errand. And he said, Speak on.

.Ge 24:34
And he said, I [am] Abraham's servant.

.Ge 24:35
And the LORD hath blessed my master
greatly; and he is become
great: and he hath given him flocks,
and herds, and silver, and
gold, and menservants, and
maidservants, and camels, and asses.

.Ge 24:36
And Sarah my master's wife bare a son
to my master when she
was old: and unto him hath he given
all that he hath.

.Ge 24:37
And my master made me swear, saying,
Thou shalt not take a
wife to my son of the daughters of the
Canaanites, in whose
land I dwell:

.Ge 24:38
But thou shalt go unto my father's
house, and to my kindred,
and take a wife unto my son.

.Ge 24:39
And I said unto my master, Peradventure
the woman will not
follow me.

.Ge 24:40
And he said unto me, The LORD, before
whom I walk, will send
his angel with thee, and prosper thy
way; and thou shalt take
a wife for my son of my kindred, and
of my father's house:

.Ge 24:41
Then shalt thou be clear from [this]
my oath, when thou comest
to my kindred; and if they give not
thee [one], thou shalt be
clear from my oath.

.Ge 24:42
And I came this day unto the well,
and said, O LORD God of my
master Abraham, if now thou do prosper
my way which I go:

.Ge 24:43
Behold, I stand by the well of water;
and it shall come to pass,
that when the virgin cometh forth to
draw [water], and I say
to her, Give me, I pray thee, a little
water of thy pitcher
to drink;

.Ge 24:44
And she say to me, Both drink thou,
and I will also draw for
thy camels: [let] the same [be] the
woman whom the LORD hath
appointed out for my master's son.

.Ge 24:45
And before I had done speaking in mine
heart, behold, Rebekah
came forth with her pitcher on her
shoulder; and she went
down unto the well, and drew [water]:
and I said unto her,
Let me drink, I pray thee.

.Ge 24:46
And she made haste, and let down her
pitcher from her
[shoulder], and said, Drink, and I will
give thy camels drink
also: so I drank, and she made the
camels drink also.

.Ge 24:47
And I asked her, and said, Whose
daughter [art] thou? And
she said, The daughter of Bethuel,
Nahor's son, whom Milcah
bare unto him: and I put the earring
upon her face, and the
bracelets upon her hands.

.Ge 24:48
And I bowed down my head, and
worshipped the LORD, and blessed
the LORD God of my master Abraham,
which had led me in the
right way to take my master's brother's
daughter unto his son.

.Ge 24:49
And now if ye will deal kindly and
truly with my master, tell
me: and if not, tell me; that I may
turn to the right hand,
or to the left.

.Ge 24:50
Then Laban and Bethuel answered and
said, The thing proceedeth
from the LORD: we cannot speak unto
thee bad or good.

.Ge 24:51
Behold, Rebekah [is] before thee, take
[her], and go, and let
her be thy master's son's wife, as the
LORD hath spoken.

.Ge 24:52
And it came to pass, that, when
Abraham's servant heard their
words, he worshipped the LORD, [bowing
himself] to the earth.

.Ge 24:53
And the servant brought forth jewels
of silver, and jewels of
gold, and raiment, and gave [them]
to Rebekah: he gave also
to her brother and to her mother
precious things.

.Ge 24:54
And they did eat and drink, he and the
men that [were] with
him, and tarried all night; and they
rose up in the morning,
and he said, Send me away unto my
master.

.Ge 24:55
And her brother and her mother said,
Let the damsel abide with
us [a few] days, at the least ten;
after that she shall go.

.Ge 24:56
And he said unto them, Hinder me not,
seeing the LORD hath
prospered my way; send me away that I
may go to my master.

.Ge 24:57
And they said, We will call the damsel,
and inquire at her
mouth.

.Ge 24:58
And they called Rebekah, and said unto
her, Wilt thou go with
this man? And she said, I will go.

.Ge 24:59
And they sent away Rebekah their
sister, and her nurse, and
Abraham's servant, and his men.

.Ge 24:60
And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto
her, Thou [art]
our sister, be thou [the mother] of
thousands of millions,
and let thy seed possess the gate of
those which hate them.

.Ge 24:61
And Rebekah arose, and her damsels,
and they rode upon the
camels, and followed the man: and the
servant took Rebekah,
and went his way.

.Ge 24:62
And Isaac came from the way of the well
Lahairoi; for he dwelt
in the south country.

.Ge 24:63
And Isaac went out to meditate in the
field at the eventide:
and he lifted up his eyes, and saw,
and, behold, the camels
[were] coming.

.Ge 24:64
And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and
when she saw Isaac, she
lighted off the camel.

.Ge 24:65
For she [had] said unto the servant,
What man [is] this that
walketh in the field to meet us? And
the servant [had] said, It
[is] my master: therefore she took a
vail, and covered herself.

.Ge 24:66
And the servant told Isaac all things
that he had done.

.Ge 24:67
And Isaac brought her into his mother
Sarah's tent, and took
Rebekah, and she became his wife;
and he loved her: and Isaac
was comforted after his mother's
[death].

.Ge 25:1
Then again Abraham took a wife, and
her name [was] Keturah.

.Ge 25:2
And she bare him Zimran, and Jokshan,
and Medan, and Midian,
and Ishbak, and Shuah.

.Ge 25:3
And Jokshan begat Sheba, and Dedan. And
the sons of Dedan were
Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.

.Ge 25:4
And the sons of Midian; Ephah, and
Epher, and Hanoch, and Abida,
and Eldaah. All these [were] the
children of Keturah.

.Ge 25:5
And Abraham gave all that he had unto
Isaac.

.Ge 25:6
But unto the sons of the concubines,
which Abraham had,
Abraham gave gifts, and sent them away
from Isaac his son,
while he yet lived, eastward, unto the
east country.

.Ge 25:7
And these [are] the days of the years
of Abraham's life which
he lived, an hundred threescore and
fifteen years.

.Ge 25:8
Then Abraham gave up the ghost, and
died in a good old age, an
old man, and full [of years]; and was
gathered to his people.

.Ge 25:9
And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried
him in the cave of
Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the
son of Zohar the Hittite,
which [is] before Mamre;

.Ge 25:10
The field which Abraham purchased of
the sons of Heth: there
was Abraham buried, and Sarah his
wife.

.Ge 25:11
And it came to pass after the death of
Abraham, that God
blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac dwelt
by the well Lahairoi.

.Ge 25:12
Now these [are] the generations of
Ishmael, Abraham's son,
whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's
handmaid, bare unto Abraham:

.Ge 25:13
And these [are] the names of the sons
of Ishmael, by their
names, according to their generations:
the firstborn of Ishmael,
Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and
Mibsam,

.Ge 25:14
And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,

.Ge 25:15
Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and
Kedemah:

.Ge 25:16
These [are] the sons of Ishmael, and
these [are] their names,
by their towns, and by their castles;
twelve princes according
to their nations.

.Ge 25:17
And these [are] the years of the life
of Ishmael, an hundred
and thirty and seven years: and he gave
up the ghost and died;
and was gathered unto his people.

.Ge 25:18
And they dwelt from Havilah unto Shur,
that [is] before Egypt,
as thou goest toward Assyria: [and]
he died in the presence
of all his brethren.

.Ge 25:19
And these [are] the generations of
Isaac, Abraham's son:
Abraham begat Isaac:

.Ge 25:20
And Isaac was forty years old when he
took Rebekah to wife,
the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of
Padanaram, the sister
to Laban the Syrian.

.Ge 25:21
And Isaac intreated the LORD for his
wife, because she [was]
barren: and the LORD was intreated of
him, and Rebekah his
wife conceived.

.Ge 25:22
And the children struggled together
within her; and she said,
If [it be] so, why [am] I thus? And
she went to inquire of
the LORD.

.Ge 25:23
And the LORD said unto her, Two nations
[are] in thy womb,
and two manner of people shall be
separated from thy bowels;
and [the one] people shall be stronger
than [the other] people;
and the elder shall serve the younger.

.Ge 25:24
And when her days to be delivered were
fulfilled, behold,
[there were] twins in her womb.

.Ge 25:25
And the first came out red, all over
like an hairy garment;
and they called his name Esau.

.Ge 25:26
And after that came his brother out,
and his hand took hold
on Esau's heel; and his name was called
Jacob: and Isaac [was]
threescore years old when she bare
them.

.Ge 25:27
And the boys grew: and Esau was a
cunning hunter, a man of
the field; and Jacob [was] a plain man,
dwelling in tents.

.Ge 25:28
And Isaac loved Esau, because he did
eat of [his] venison:
but Rebekah loved Jacob.

.Ge 25:29
And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came
from the field, and he
[was] faint:

.Ge 25:30
And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray
thee, with that same
red [pottage]; for I [am] faint:
therefore was his name called
Edom.

.Ge 25:31
And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy
birthright.

.Ge 25:32
And Esau said, Behold, I [am] at the
point to die: and what
profit shall this birthright do to me?

.Ge 25:33
And Jacob said, Swear to me this day;
and he sware unto him:
and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.

.Ge 25:34
Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage
of lentiles; and he
did eat and drink, and rose up, and
went his way: thus Esau
despised [his] birthright.

.Ge 26:1
And there was a famine in the land,
beside the first famine
that was in the days of Abraham. And
Isaac went unto Abimelech
king of the Philistines unto Gerar.

.Ge 26:2
And the LORD appeared unto him, and
said, Go not down into
Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall
tell thee of:

.Ge 26:3
Sojourn in this land, and I will be
with thee, and will bless
thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed,
I will give all these
countries, and I will perform the oath
which I sware unto
Abraham thy father;

.Ge 26:4
And I will make thy seed to multiply
as the stars of heaven,
and will give unto thy seed all these
countries; and in thy
seed shall all the nations of the earth
be blessed;

.Ge 26:5
Because that Abraham obeyed my voice,
and kept my charge,
my commandments, my statutes, and my
laws.

.Ge 26:6
And Isaac dwelt in Gerar:

.Ge 26:7
And the men of the place asked [him]
of his wife; and he said,
She [is] my sister: for he feared to
say, [She is] my wife;
lest, [said he], the men of the place
should kill me for
Rebekah; because she [was] fair to look
upon.

.Ge 26:8
And it came to pass, when he had been
there a long time, that
Abimelech king of the Philistines
looked out at a window, and
saw, and, behold, Isaac [was] sporting
with Rebekah his wife.

.Ge 26:9
And Abimelech called Isaac, and said,
Behold, of a surety she
[is] thy wife: and how saidst thou,
She [is] my sister? And
Isaac said unto him, Because I said,
Lest I die for her.

.Ge 26:10
And Abimelech said, What [is] this thou
hast done unto us? one
of the people might lightly have lien
with thy wife, and thou
shouldest have brought guiltiness upon
us.

.Ge 26:11
And Abimelech charged all [his] people,
saying, He that toucheth
this man or his wife shall surely be
put to death.

.Ge 26:12
Then Isaac sowed in that land, and
received in the same year
an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed
him.

.Ge 26:13
And the man waxed great, and went
forward, and grew until he
became very great:

.Ge 26:14
For he had possession of flocks, and
possession of herds,
and great store of servants: and the
Philistines envied him.

.Ge 26:15
For all the wells which his father's
servants had digged in the
days of Abraham his father, the
Philistines had stopped them,
and filled them with earth.

.Ge 26:16
And Abimelech said unto Isaac, Go from
us; for thou art much
mightier than we.

.Ge 26:17
And Isaac departed thence, and pitched
his tent in the valley
of Gerar, and dwelt there.

.Ge 26:18
And Isaac digged again the wells of
water, which they had
digged in the days of Abraham his
father; for the Philistines
had stopped them after the death of
Abraham: and he called their
names after the names by which his
father had called them.

.Ge 26:19
And Isaac's servants digged in the
valley, and found there a
well of springing water.

.Ge 26:20
And the herdmen of Gerar did strive
with Isaac's herdmen,
saying, The water [is] ours: and he
called the name of the
well Esek; because they strove with
him.

.Ge 26:21
And they digged another well, and
strove for that also: and
he called the name of it Sitnah.

.Ge 26:22
And he removed from thence, and digged
another well; and for
that they strove not: and he called
the name of it Rehoboth;
and he said, For now the LORD hath made
room for us, and we
shall be fruitful in the land.

.Ge 26:23
And he went up from thence to
Beersheba.

.Ge 26:24
And the LORD appeared unto him the same
night, and said,
I [am] the God of Abraham thy father:
fear not, for I [am]
with thee, and will bless thee, and
multiply thy seed for my
servant Abraham's sake.

.Ge 26:25
And he builded an altar there, and
called upon the name of the
LORD, and pitched his tent there:
and there Isaac's servants
digged a well.

.Ge 26:26
Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar,
and Ahuzzath one of
his friends, and Phichol the chief
captain of his army.

.Ge 26:27
And Isaac said unto them, Wherefore
come ye to me, seeing ye
hate me, and have sent me away from
you?

.Ge 26:28
And they said, We saw certainly that
the LORD was with thee:
and we said, Let there be now an oath
betwixt us, [even]
betwixt us and thee, and let us make
a covenant with thee;

.Ge 26:29
That thou wilt do us no hurt, as we
have not touched thee,
and as we have done unto thee nothing
but good, and have sent
thee away in peace: thou [art] now the
blessed of the LORD.

.Ge 26:30
And he made them a feast, and they did
eat and drink.

.Ge 26:31
And they rose up betimes in the
morning, and sware one to
another: and Isaac sent them away,
and they departed from him
in peace.

.Ge 26:32
And it came to pass the same day,
that Isaac's servants came,
and told him concerning the well which
they had digged, and
said unto him, We have found water.

.Ge 26:33
And he called it Shebah: therefore the
name of the city [is]
Beersheba unto this day.

.Ge 26:34
And Esau was forty years old when he
took to wife Judith the
daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and
Bashemath the daughter of
Elon the Hittite:

.Ge 26:35
Which were a grief of mind unto Isaac
and to Rebekah.

.Ge 27:1
And it came to pass, that when Isaac
was old, and his eyes
were dim, so that he could not see,
he called Esau his eldest
son, and said unto him, My son: and he
said unto him, Behold,
[here am] I.

.Ge 27:2
And he said, Behold now, I am old,
I know not the day of my
death:

.Ge 27:3
Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy
weapons, thy quiver and
thy bow, and go out to the field,
and take me [some] venison;

.Ge 27:4
And make me savoury meat, such as I
love, and bring [it] to me,
that I may eat; that my soul may bless
thee before I die.

.Ge 27:5
And Rebekah heard when Isaac spake to
Esau his son. And Esau
went to the field to hunt [for]
venison, [and] to bring [it].

.Ge 27:6
And Rebekah spake unto Jacob her son,
saying, Behold, I heard
thy father speak unto Esau thy brother,
saying,

.Ge 27:7
Bring me venison, and make me savoury
meat, that I may eat,
and bless thee before the LORD before
my death.

.Ge 27:8
Now therefore, my son, obey my voice
according to that which
I command thee.

.Ge 27:9
Go now to the flock, and fetch me from
thence two good kids of
the goats; and I will make them savoury
meat for thy father,
such as he loveth:

.Ge 27:10
And thou shalt bring [it] to thy
father, that he may eat,
and that he may bless thee before his
death.

.Ge 27:11
And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother,
Behold, Esau my brother
[is] a hairy man, and I [am] a smooth
man:

.Ge 27:12
My father peradventure will feel me,
and I shall seem to him
as a deceiver; and I shall bring a
curse upon me, and not a
blessing.

.Ge 27:13
And his mother said unto him, Upon me
[be] thy curse, my son:
only obey my voice, and go fetch me
[them].

.Ge 27:14
And he went, and fetched, and brought
[them] to his mother:
and his mother made savoury meat,
such as his father loved.

.Ge 27:15
And Rebekah took goodly raiment of her
eldest son Esau, which
[were] with her in the house, and put
them upon Jacob her
younger son:

.Ge 27:16
And she put the skins of the kids of
the goats upon his hands,
and upon the smooth of his neck:

.Ge 27:17
And she gave the savoury meat and the
bread, which she had
prepared, into the hand of her son
Jacob.

.Ge 27:18
And he came unto his father, and said,
My father: and he said,
Here [am] I; who [art] thou, my son?

.Ge 27:19
And Jacob said unto his father, I [am]
Esau thy firstborn;
I have done according as thou badest
me: arise, I pray thee,
sit and eat of my venison, that thy
soul may bless me.

.Ge 27:20
And Isaac said unto his son, How [is
it] that thou hast found
[it] so quickly, my son? And he said,
Because the LORD thy
God brought [it] to me.

.Ge 27:21
And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near,
I pray thee, that I may
feel thee, my son, whether thou [be]
my very son Esau or not.

.Ge 27:22
And Jacob went near unto Isaac his
father; and he felt him,
and said, The voice [is] Jacob's voice,
but the hands [are]
the hands of Esau.

.Ge 27:23
And he discerned him not, because his
hands were hairy, as
his brother Esau's hands: so he blessed
him.

.Ge 27:24
And he said, [Art] thou my very son
Esau? And he said, I [am].

.Ge 27:25
And he said, Bring [it] near to me,
and I will eat of my son's
venison, that my soul may bless
thee. And he brought [it] near
to him, and he did eat: and he brought
him wine, and he drank.

.Ge 27:26
And his father Isaac said unto him,
Come near now, and kiss me,
my son.

.Ge 27:27
And he came near, and kissed him:
and he smelled the smell of
his raiment, and blessed him, and said,
See, the smell of my
son [is] as the smell of a field which
the LORD hath blessed:

.Ge 27:28
Therefore God give thee of the dew of
heaven, and the fatness
of the earth, and plenty of corn and
wine:

.Ge 27:29
Let people serve thee, and nations bow
down to thee: be lord
over thy brethren, and let thy mother's
sons bow down to thee:
cursed [be] every one that curseth
thee, and blessed [be]
he that blesseth thee.

.Ge 27:30
And it came to pass, as soon as Isaac
had made an end of
blessing Jacob, and Jacob was yet
scarce gone out from the
presence of Isaac his father, that Esau
his brother came in
from his hunting.

.Ge 27:31
And he also had made savoury meat,
and brought it unto his
father, and said unto his father,
Let my father arise, and
eat of his son's venison, that thy soul
may bless me.

.Ge 27:32
And Isaac his father said unto him,
Who [art] thou? And he said,
I [am] thy son, thy firstborn Esau.

.Ge 27:33
And Isaac trembled very exceedingly,
and said, Who? where [is]
he that hath taken venison, and brought
[it] me, and I have
eaten of all before thou camest, and
have blessed him? yea,
[and] he shall be blessed.

.Ge 27:34
And when Esau heard the words of his
father, he cried with
a great and exceeding bitter cry,
and said unto his father,
Bless me, [even] me also, O my father.

.Ge 27:35
And he said, Thy brother came with
subtilty, and hath taken
away thy blessing.

.Ge 27:36
And he said, Is not he rightly named
Jacob? for he hath
supplanted me these two times: he took
away my birthright;
and, behold, now he hath taken away my
blessing. And he said,
Hast thou not reserved a blessing for
me?

.Ge 27:37
And Isaac answered and said unto Esau,
Behold, I have made
him thy lord, and all his brethren have
I given to him for
servants; and with corn and wine have
I sustained him: and
what shall I do now unto thee, my son?

.Ge 27:38
And Esau said unto his father, Hast
thou but one blessing,
my father? bless me, [even] me also,
O my father. And Esau
lifted up his voice, and wept.

.Ge 27:39
And Isaac his father answered and said
unto him, Behold, thy
dwelling shall be the fatness of the
earth, and of the dew of
heaven from above;

.Ge 27:40
And by thy sword shalt thou live,
and shalt serve thy brother;
and it shall come to pass when thou
shalt have the dominion,
that thou shalt break his yoke from
off thy neck.

.Ge 27:41
And Esau hated Jacob because of the
blessing wherewith his
father blessed him: and Esau said in
his heart, The days of
mourning for my father are at hand;
then will I slay my brother
Jacob.

.Ge 27:42
And these words of Esau her elder son
were told to Rebekah:
and she sent and called Jacob her
younger son, and said unto
him, Behold, thy brother Esau, as
touching thee, doth comfort
himself, [purposing] to kill thee.

.Ge 27:43
Now therefore, my son, obey my voice;
and arise, flee thou to
Laban my brother to Haran;

.Ge 27:44
And tarry with him a few days, until
thy brother's fury turn
away;

.Ge 27:45
Until thy brother's anger turn away
from thee, and he forget
[that] which thou hast done to him:
then I will send, and
fetch thee from thence: why should I
be deprived also of you
both in one day?

.Ge 27:46
And Rebekah said to Isaac, I am weary
of my life because of
the daughters of Heth: if Jacob take
a wife of the daughters of
Heth, such as these [which are] of the
daughters of the land,
what good shall my life do me?

.Ge 28:1
And Isaac called Jacob, and blessed
him, and charged him, and
said unto him, Thou shalt not take a
wife of the daughters of
Canaan.

.Ge 28:2
Arise, go to Padanaram, to the house
of Bethuel thy mother's
father; and take thee a wife from
thence of the daughters of
Laban thy mother's brother.

.Ge 28:3
And God Almighty bless thee, and make
thee fruitful, and
multiply thee, that thou mayest be a
multitude of people;

.Ge 28:4
And give thee the blessing of Abraham,
to thee, and to thy seed
with thee; that thou mayest inherit
the land wherein thou art
a stranger, which God gave unto
Abraham.

.Ge 28:5
And Isaac sent away Jacob: and he went
to Padanaram unto
Laban, son of Bethuel the Syrian,
the brother of Rebekah,
Jacob's and Esau's mother.

.Ge 28:6
When Esau saw that Isaac had blessed
Jacob, and sent him away
to Padanaram, to take him a wife from
thence; and that as he
blessed him he gave him a charge,
saying, Thou shalt not take
a wife of the daughters of Canaan;

.Ge 28:7
And that Jacob obeyed his father and
his mother, and was gone
to Padanaram;

.Ge 28:8
And Esau seeing that the daughters of
Canaan pleased not Isaac
his father;

.Ge 28:9
Then went Esau unto Ishmael, and took
unto the wives which he
had Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael
Abraham's son, the sister
of Nebajoth, to be his wife.

.Ge 28:10
And Jacob went out from Beersheba,
and went toward Haran.

.Ge 28:11
And he lighted upon a certain place,
and tarried there all
night, because the sun was set; and he
took of the stones of
that place, and put [them for] his
pillows, and lay down in
that place to sleep.

.Ge 28:12
And he dreamed, and behold a ladder
set up on the earth, and
the top of it reached to heaven: and
behold the angels of God
ascending and descending on it.

.Ge 28:13
And, behold, the LORD stood above it,
and said, I [am] the
LORD God of Abraham thy father, and
the God of Isaac: the land
whereon thou liest, to thee will I give
it, and to thy seed;

.Ge 28:14
And thy seed shall be as the dust of
the earth, and thou shalt
spread abroad to the west, and to the
east, and to the north,
and to the south: and in thee and in
thy seed shall all the
families of the earth be blessed.

.Ge 28:15
And, behold, I [am] with thee, and will
keep thee in all
[places] whither thou goest, and will
bring thee again into
this land; for I will not leave thee,
until I have done [that]
which I have spoken to thee of.

.Ge 28:16
And Jacob awaked out of his sleep,
and he said, Surely the
LORD is in this place; and I knew [it]
not.

.Ge 28:17
And he was afraid, and said, How
dreadful [is] this place! this
[is] none other but the house of God,
and this [is] the gate
of heaven.

.Ge 28:18
And Jacob rose up early in the morning,
and took the stone that
he had put [for] his pillows, and set
it up [for] a pillar,
and poured oil upon the top of it.

.Ge 28:19
And he called the name of that place
Bethel: but the name of
that city [was called] Luz at the
first.

.Ge 28:20
And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God
will be with me, and will
keep me in this way that I go, and will
give me bread to eat,
and raiment to put on,

.Ge 28:21
So that I come again to my father's
house in peace; then shall
the LORD be my God:

.Ge 28:22
And this stone, which I have set [for]
a pillar, shall be God's
house: and of all that thou shalt give
me I will surely give
the tenth unto thee.

.Ge 29:1
Then Jacob went on his journey, and
came into the land of the
people of the east.

.Ge 29:2
And he looked, and behold a well in
the field, and, lo,
there [were] three flocks of sheep
lying by it; for out of
that well they watered the flocks:
and a great stone [was]
upon the well's mouth.

.Ge 29:3
And thither were all the flocks
gathered: and they rolled the
stone from the well's mouth, and
watered the sheep, and put
the stone again upon the well's mouth
in his place.

.Ge 29:4
And Jacob said unto them, My brethren,
whence [be] ye? And
they said, Of Haran [are] we.

.Ge 29:5
And he said unto them, Know ye Laban
the son of Nahor? And
they said, We know [him].

.Ge 29:6
And he said unto them, [Is] he
well? And they said, [He is]
well: and, behold, Rachel his daughter
cometh with the sheep.

.Ge 29:7
And he said, Lo, [it is] yet high day,
neither [is it] time
that the cattle should be gathered
together: water ye the sheep,
and go [and] feed [them].

.Ge 29:8
And they said, We cannot, until all
the flocks be gathered
together, and [till] they roll the
stone from the well's mouth;
then we water the sheep.

.Ge 29:9
And while he yet spake with them,
Rachel came with her father's
sheep: for she kept them.

.Ge 29:10
And it came to pass, when Jacob saw
Rachel the daughter of
Laban his mother's brother, and the
sheep of Laban his mother's
brother, that Jacob went near, and
rolled the stone from the
well's mouth, and watered the flock of
Laban his mother's
brother.

.Ge 29:11
And Jacob kissed Rachel, and lifted up
his voice, and wept.

.Ge 29:12
And Jacob told Rachel that he [was]
her father's brother, and
that he [was] Rebekah's son: and she
ran and told her father.

.Ge 29:13
And it came to pass, when Laban heard
the tidings of Jacob
his sister's son, that he ran to meet
him, and embraced him,
and kissed him, and brought him to his
house. And he told
Laban all these things.

.Ge 29:14
And Laban said to him, Surely thou
[art] my bone and my
flesh. And he abode with him the space
of a month.

.Ge 29:15
And Laban said unto Jacob, Because thou
[art] my brother,
shouldest thou therefore serve me for
nought? tell me, what
[shall] thy wages [be]?

.Ge 29:16
And Laban had two daughters: the name
of the elder [was] Leah,
and the name of the younger [was]
Rachel.

.Ge 29:17
Leah [was] tender eyed; but Rachel was
beautiful and well
favoured.

.Ge 29:18
And Jacob loved Rachel; and said,
I will serve thee seven
years for Rachel thy younger daughter.

.Ge 29:19
And Laban said, [It is] better that I
give her to thee, than
that I should give her to another man:
abide with me.

.Ge 29:20
And Jacob served seven years for
Rachel; and they seemed unto
him [but] a few days, for the love he
had to her.

.Ge 29:21
And Jacob said unto Laban, Give [me]
my wife, for my days are
fulfilled, that I may go in unto her.

.Ge 29:22
And Laban gathered together all the
men of the place, and made
a feast.

.Ge 29:23
And it came to pass in the evening,
that he took Leah his
daughter, and brought her to him;
and he went in unto her.

.Ge 29:24
And Laban gave unto his daughter Leah
Zilpah his maid [for]
an handmaid.

.Ge 29:25
And it came to pass, that in the
morning, behold, it [was]
Leah: and he said to Laban, What [is]
this thou hast done unto
me? did not I serve with thee for
Rachel? wherefore then hast
thou beguiled me?

.Ge 29:26
And Laban said, It must not be so done
in our country, to give
the younger before the firstborn.

.Ge 29:27
Fulfil her week, and we will give thee
this also for the
service which thou shalt serve with me
yet seven other years.

.Ge 29:28
And Jacob did so, and fulfilled her
week: and he gave him
Rachel his daughter to wife also.

.Ge 29:29
And Laban gave to Rachel his daughter
Bilhah his handmaid to
be her maid.

.Ge 29:30
And he went in also unto Rachel, and
he loved also Rachel more
than Leah, and served with him yet
seven other years.

.Ge 29:31
And when the LORD saw that Leah [was]
hated, he opened her womb:
but Rachel [was] barren.

.Ge 29:32
And Leah conceived, and bare a son,
and she called his name
Reuben: for she said, Surely the LORD
hath looked upon my
affliction; now therefore my husband
will love me.

.Ge 29:33
And she conceived again, and bare a
son; and said, Because the
LORD hath heard that I [was] hated,
he hath therefore given
me this [son] also: and she called his
name Simeon.

.Ge 29:34
And she conceived again, and bare a
son; and said, Now this
time will my husband be joined unto me,
because I have born
him three sons: therefore was his name
called Levi.

.Ge 29:35
And she conceived again, and bare a
son: and she said, Now
will I praise the LORD: therefore she
called his name Judah;
and left bearing.

.Ge 30:1
And when Rachel saw that she bare Jacob
no children, Rachel
envied her sister; and said unto Jacob,
Give me children,
or else I die.

.Ge 30:2
And Jacob's anger was kindled against
Rachel: and he said,
[Am] I in God's stead, who hath
withheld from thee the fruit
of the womb?

.Ge 30:3
And she said, Behold my maid Bilhah,
go in unto her; and she
shall bear upon my knees, that I may
also have children by her.

.Ge 30:4
And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid
to wife: and Jacob went
in unto her.

.Ge 30:5
And Bilhah conceived, and bare Jacob
a son.

.Ge 30:6
And Rachel said, God hath judged me,
and hath also heard my
voice, and hath given me a son:
therefore called she his name
Dan.

.Ge 30:7
And Bilhah Rachel's maid conceived
again, and bare Jacob a
second son.

.Ge 30:8
And Rachel said, With great wrestlings
have I wrestled with my
sister, and I have prevailed: and she
called his name Naphtali.

.Ge 30:9
When Leah saw that she had left
bearing, she took Zilpah her
maid, and gave her Jacob to wife.

.Ge 30:10
And Zilpah Leah's maid bare Jacob a
son.

.Ge 30:11
And Leah said, A troop cometh: and she
called his name Gad.

.Ge 30:12
And Zilpah Leah's maid bare Jacob a
second son.

.Ge 30:13
And Leah said, Happy am I, for the
daughters will call me
blessed: and she called his name
Asher.

.Ge 30:14
And Reuben went in the days of wheat
harvest, and found
mandrakes in the field, and brought
them unto his mother
Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, Give
me, I pray thee, of thy
son's mandrakes.

.Ge 30:15
And she said unto her, [Is it] a small
matter that thou
hast taken my husband? and wouldest
thou take away my son's
mandrakes also? And Rachel said,
Therefore he shall lie with
thee to night for thy son's mandrakes.

.Ge 30:16
And Jacob came out of the field in the
evening, and Leah
went out to meet him, and said, Thou
must come in unto me;
for surely I have hired thee with my
son's mandrakes. And he
lay with her that night.

.Ge 30:17
And God hearkened unto Leah, and she
conceived, and bare Jacob
the fifth son.

.Ge 30:18
And Leah said, God hath given me my
hire, because I have given
my maiden to my husband: and she called
his name Issachar.

.Ge 30:19
And Leah conceived again, and bare
Jacob the sixth son.

.Ge 30:20
And Leah said, God hath endued me
[with] a good dowry; now will
my husband dwell with me, because I
have born him six sons:
and she called his name Zebulun.

.Ge 30:21
And afterwards she bare a daughter,
and called her name Dinah.

.Ge 30:22
And God remembered Rachel, and God
hearkened to her, and opened
her womb.

.Ge 30:23
And she conceived, and bare a son;
and said, God hath taken
away my reproach:

.Ge 30:24
And she called his name Joseph; and
said, The LORD shall add
to me another son.

.Ge 30:25
And it came to pass, when Rachel had
born Joseph, that Jacob
said unto Laban, Send me away, that I
may go unto mine own
place, and to my country.

.Ge 30:26
Give [me] my wives and my children,
for whom I have served thee,
and let me go: for thou knowest my
service which I have done
thee.

.Ge 30:27
And Laban said unto him, I pray thee,
if I have found favour
in thine eyes, [tarry: for] I have
learned by experience that
the LORD hath blessed me for thy sake.

.Ge 30:28
And he said, Appoint me thy wages,
and I will give [it].

.Ge 30:29
And he said unto him, Thou knowest how
I have served thee,
and how thy cattle was with me.

.Ge 30:30
For [it was] little which thou hadst
before I [came], and it is
[now] increased unto a multitude;
and the LORD hath blessed
thee since my coming: and now when
shall I provide for mine
own house also?

.Ge 30:31
And he said, What shall I give
thee? And Jacob said, Thou
shalt not give me any thing: if thou
wilt do this thing for me,
I will again feed [and] keep thy
flock:

.Ge 30:32
I will pass through all thy flock to
day, removing from thence
all the speckled and spotted cattle,
and all the brown cattle
among the sheep, and the spotted and
speckled among the goats:
and [of such] shall be my hire.

.Ge 30:33
So shall my righteousness answer for
me in time to come, when
it shall come for my hire before thy
face: every one that [is]
not speckled and spotted among the
goats, and brown among the
sheep, that shall be counted stolen
with me.

.Ge 30:34
And Laban said, Behold, I would it
might be according to thy
word.

.Ge 30:35
And he removed that day the he goats
that were ringstraked and
spotted, and all the she goats that
were speckled and spotted,
[and] every one that had [some] white
in it, and all the brown
among the sheep, and gave [them] into
the hand of his sons.

.Ge 30:36
And he set three days' journey betwixt
himself and Jacob:
and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's
flocks.

.Ge 30:37
And Jacob took him rods of green
poplar, and of the hazel and
chesnut tree; and pilled white strakes
in them, and made the
white appear which [was] in the rods.

.Ge 30:38
And he set the rods which he had pilled
before the flocks in
the gutters in the watering troughs
when the flocks came to
drink, that they should conceive when
they came to drink.

.Ge 30:39
And the flocks conceived before the
rods, and brought forth
cattle ringstraked, speckled, and
spotted.

.Ge 30:40
And Jacob did separate the lambs,
and set the faces of the
flocks toward the ringstraked, and all
the brown in the flock
of Laban; and he put his own flocks by
themselves, and put
them not unto Laban's cattle.

.Ge 30:41
And it came to pass, whensoever the
stronger cattle did
conceive, that Jacob laid the rods
before the eyes of the
cattle in the gutters, that they might
conceive among the rods.

.Ge 30:42
But when the cattle were feeble, he put
[them] not in: so the
feebler were Laban's, and the stronger
Jacob's.

.Ge 30:43
And the man increased exceedingly,
and had much cattle, and
maidservants, and menservants, and
camels, and asses.

.Ge 31:1
And he heard the words of Laban's sons,
saying, Jacob hath
taken away all that [was] our father's;
and of [that] which
[was] our father's hath he gotten all
this glory.

.Ge 31:2
And Jacob beheld the countenance of
Laban, and, behold, it
[was] not toward him as before.

.Ge 31:3
And the LORD said unto Jacob, Return
unto the land of thy
fathers, and to thy kindred; and I will
be with thee.

.Ge 31:4
And Jacob sent and called Rachel and
Leah to the field unto
his flock,

.Ge 31:5
And said unto them, I see your father's
countenance, that it
[is] not toward me as before; but the
God of my father hath
been with me.

.Ge 31:6
And ye know that with all my power I
have served your father.

.Ge 31:7
And your father hath deceived me,
and changed my wages ten
times; but God suffered him not to hurt
me.

.Ge 31:8
If he said thus, The speckled shall be
thy wages; then all
the cattle bare speckled: and if he
said thus, The ringstraked
shall be thy hire; then bare all the
cattle ringstraked.

.Ge 31:9
Thus God hath taken away the cattle of
your father, and given
[them] to me.

.Ge 31:10
And it came to pass at the time that
the cattle conceived,
that I lifted up mine eyes, and saw in
a dream, and, behold,
the rams which leaped upon the cattle
[were] ringstraked,
speckled, and grisled.

.Ge 31:11
And the angel of God spake unto me in
a dream, [saying], Jacob:
And I said, Here [am] I.

.Ge 31:12
And he said, Lift up now thine eyes,
and see, all the rams
which leap upon the cattle [are]
ringstraked, speckled, and
grisled: for I have seen all that Laban
doeth unto thee.

.Ge 31:13
I [am] the God of Bethel, where thou
anointedst the pillar,
[and] where thou vowedst a vow unto me:
now arise, get thee
out from this land, and return unto
the land of thy kindred.

.Ge 31:14
And Rachel and Leah answered and said
unto him, [Is there]
yet any portion or inheritance for us
in our father's house?

.Ge 31:15
Are we not counted of him
strangers? for he hath sold us,
and hath quite devoured also our
money.

.Ge 31:16
For all the riches which God hath taken
from our father, that
[is] ours, and our children's: now
then, whatsoever God hath
said unto thee, do.

.Ge 31:17
Then Jacob rose up, and set his sons
and his wives upon camels;

.Ge 31:18
And he carried away all his cattle,
and all his goods which he
had gotten, the cattle of his getting,
which he had gotten in
Padanaram, for to go to Isaac his
father in the land of Canaan.

.Ge 31:19
And Laban went to shear his sheep:
and Rachel had stolen the
images that [were] her father's.

.Ge 31:20
And Jacob stole away unawares to Laban
the Syrian, in that he
told him not that he fled.

.Ge 31:21
So he fled with all that he had; and
he rose up, and passed
over the river, and set his face
[toward] the mount Gilead.

.Ge 31:22
And it was told Laban on the third day
that Jacob was fled.

.Ge 31:23
And he took his brethren with him,
and pursued after him seven
days' journey; and they overtook him
in the mount Gilead.

.Ge 31:24
And God came to Laban the Syrian in a
dream by night, and said
unto him, Take heed that thou speak
not to Jacob either good
or bad.

.Ge 31:25
Then Laban overtook Jacob. Now Jacob
had pitched his tent in
the mount: and Laban with his brethren
pitched in the mount
of Gilead.

.Ge 31:26
And Laban said to Jacob, What hast thou
done, that thou hast
stolen away unawares to me, and carried
away my daughters,
as captives [taken] with the sword?

.Ge 31:27
Wherefore didst thou flee away
secretly, and steal away from
me; and didst not tell me, that I might
have sent thee away
with mirth, and with songs, with
tabret, and with harp?

.Ge 31:28
And hast not suffered me to kiss my
sons and my daughters? thou
hast now done foolishly in [so] doing.

.Ge 31:29
It is in the power of my hand to do
you hurt: but the God of
your father spake unto me yesternight,
saying, Take thou heed
that thou speak not to Jacob either
good or bad.

.Ge 31:30
And now, [though] thou wouldest needs
be gone, because thou
sore longedst after thy father's house,
[yet] wherefore hast
thou stolen my gods?

.Ge 31:31
And Jacob answered and said to Laban,
Because I was afraid:
for I said, Peradventure thou wouldest
take by force thy
daughters from me.

.Ge 31:32
With whomsoever thou findest thy gods,
let him not live: before
our brethren discern thou what [is]
thine with me, and take
[it] to thee. For Jacob knew not that
Rachel had stolen them.

.Ge 31:33
And Laban went into Jacob's tent,
and into Leah's tent, and
into the two maidservants' tents;
but he found [them] not. Then
went he out of Leah's tent, and entered
into Rachel's tent.

.Ge 31:34
Now Rachel had taken the images, and
put them in the camel's
furniture, and sat upon them. And Laban
searched all the tent,
but found [them] not.

.Ge 31:35
And she said to her father, Let it not
displease my lord that
I cannot rise up before thee; for the
custom of women [is]
upon me. And he searched, but found
not the images.

.Ge 31:36
And Jacob was wroth, and chode with
Laban: and Jacob answered
and said to Laban, What [is] my
trespass? what [is] my sin,
that thou hast so hotly pursued after
me?

.Ge 31:37
Whereas thou hast searched all my
stuff, what hast thou found
of all thy household stuff? set [it]
here before my brethren
and thy brethren, that they may judge
betwixt us both.

.Ge 31:38
This twenty years [have] I [been]
with thee; thy ewes and thy
she goats have not cast their young,
and the rams of thy flock
have I not eaten.

.Ge 31:39
That which was torn [of beasts] I
brought not unto thee;
I bare the loss of it; of my hand didst
thou require it,
[whether] stolen by day, or stolen by
night.

.Ge 31:40
[Thus] I was; in the day the drought
consumed me, and the
frost by night; and my sleep departed
from mine eyes.

.Ge 31:41
Thus have I been twenty years in thy
house; I served thee
fourteen years for thy two daughters,
and six years for thy
cattle: and thou hast changed my wages
ten times.

.Ge 31:42
Except the God of my father, the God
of Abraham, and the fear
of Isaac, had been with me, surely thou
hadst sent me away now
empty. God hath seen mine affliction
and the labour of my hands,
and rebuked [thee] yesternight.

.Ge 31:43
And Laban answered and said unto Jacob,
[These] daughters
[are] my daughters, and [these]
children [are] my children,
and [these] cattle [are] my cattle,
and all that thou seest
[is] mine: and what can I do this day
unto these my daughters,
or unto their children which they have
born?

.Ge 31:44
Now therefore come thou, let us make
a covenant, I and thou;
and let it be for a witness between me
and thee.

.Ge 31:45
And Jacob took a stone, and set it up
[for] a pillar.

.Ge 31:46
And Jacob said unto his brethren,
Gather stones; and they took
stones, and made an heap: and they did
eat there upon the heap.

.Ge 31:47
And Laban called it Jegarsahadutha:
but Jacob called it Galeed.

.Ge 31:48
And Laban said, This heap [is] a
witness between me and thee
this day. Therefore was the name of it
called Galeed;

.Ge 31:49
And Mizpah; for he said, The LORD watch
between me and thee,
when we are absent one from another.

.Ge 31:50
If thou shalt afflict my daughters,
or if thou shalt take
[other] wives beside my daughters,
no man [is] with us; see,
God [is] witness betwixt me and thee.

.Ge 31:51
And Laban said to Jacob, Behold this
heap, and behold [this]
pillar, which I have cast betwixt me
and thee;

.Ge 31:52
This heap [be] witness, and [this]
pillar [be] witness, that
I will not pass over this heap to thee,
and that thou shalt
not pass over this heap and this pillar
unto me, for harm.

.Ge 31:53
The God of Abraham, and the God of
Nahor, the God of their
father, judge betwixt us. And Jacob
sware by the fear of his
father Isaac.

.Ge 31:54
Then Jacob offered sacrifice upon the
mount, and called his
brethren to eat bread: and they did
eat bread, and tarried
all night in the mount.

.Ge 31:55
And early in the morning Laban rose up,
and kissed his sons
and his daughters, and blessed them:
and Laban departed,
and returned unto his place.

.Ge 32:1
And Jacob went on his way, and the
angels of God met him.

.Ge 32:2
And when Jacob saw them, he said, This
[is] God's host: and
he called the name of that place
Mahanaim.

.Ge 32:3
And Jacob sent messengers before him
to Esau his brother unto
the land of Seir, the country of Edom.

.Ge 32:4
And he commanded them, saying, Thus
shall ye speak unto my lord
Esau; Thy servant Jacob saith thus,
I have sojourned with Laban,
and stayed there until now:

.Ge 32:5
And I have oxen, and asses, flocks,
and menservants, and
womenservants: and I have sent to tell
my lord, that I may
find grace in thy sight.

.Ge 32:6
And the messengers returned to Jacob,
saying, We came to thy
brother Esau, and also he cometh to
meet thee, and four hundred
men with him.

.Ge 32:7
Then Jacob was greatly afraid and
distressed: and he divided
the people that [was] with him, and
the flocks, and herds,
and the camels, into two bands;

.Ge 32:8
And said, If Esau come to the one
company, and smite it,
then the other company which is left
shall escape.

.Ge 32:9
And Jacob said, O God of my father
Abraham, and God of my father
Isaac, the LORD which saidst unto me,
Return unto thy country,
and to thy kindred, and I will deal
well with thee:

.Ge 32:10
I am not worthy of the least of all
the mercies, and of all
the truth, which thou hast shewed unto
thy servant; for with my
staff I passed over this Jordan; and
now I am become two bands.

.Ge 32:11
Deliver me, I pray thee, from the hand
of my brother, from the
hand of Esau: for I fear him, lest he
will come and smite me,
[and] the mother with the children.

.Ge 32:12
And thou saidst, I will surely do thee
good, and make thy seed
as the sand of the sea, which cannot
be numbered for multitude.

.Ge 32:13
And he lodged there that same night;
and took of that which
came to his hand a present for Esau
his brother;

.Ge 32:14
Two hundred she goats, and twenty he
goats, two hundred ewes,
and twenty rams,

.Ge 32:15
Thirty milch camels with their colts,
forty kine, and ten bulls,
twenty she asses, and ten foals.

.Ge 32:16
And he delivered [them] into the hand
of his servants, every
drove by themselves; and said unto his
servants, Pass over
before me, and put a space betwixt
drove and drove.

.Ge 32:17
And he commanded the foremost, saying,
When Esau my brother
meeteth thee, and asketh thee, saying,
Whose [art] thou? and
whither goest thou? and whose [are]
these before thee?

.Ge 32:18
Then thou shalt say, [They be] thy
servant Jacob's; it [is]
a present sent unto my lord Esau: and,
behold, also he [is]
behind us.

.Ge 32:19
And so commanded he the second, and
the third, and all that
followed the droves, saying, On this
manner shall ye speak
unto Esau, when ye find him.

.Ge 32:20
And say ye moreover, Behold, thy
servant Jacob [is] behind
us. For he said, I will appease him
with the present that goeth
before me, and afterward I will see
his face; peradventure he
will accept of me.

.Ge 32:21
So went the present over before him:
and himself lodged that
night in the company.

.Ge 32:22
And he rose up that night, and took
his two wives, and his
two womenservants, and his eleven sons,
and passed over the
ford Jabbok.

.Ge 32:23
And he took them, and sent them over
the brook, and sent over
that he had.

.Ge 32:24
And Jacob was left alone; and there
wrestled a man with him
until the breaking of the day.

.Ge 32:25
And when he saw that he prevailed not
against him, he touched
the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow
of Jacob's thigh was
out of joint, as he wrestled with him.

.Ge 32:26
And he said, Let me go, for the day
breaketh. And he said,
I will not let thee go, except thou
bless me.

.Ge 32:27
And he said unto him, What [is] thy
name? And he said, Jacob.

.Ge 32:28
And he said, Thy name shall be called
no more Jacob, but
Israel: for as a prince hast thou power
with God and with men,
and hast prevailed.

.Ge 32:29
And Jacob asked [him], and said, Tell
[me], I pray thee,
thy name. And he said, Wherefore [is]
it [that] thou dost ask
after my name? And he blessed him
there.

.Ge 32:30
And Jacob called the name of the place
Peniel: for I have seen
God face to face, and my life is
preserved.

.Ge 32:31
And as he passed over Penuel the sun
rose upon him, and he
halted upon his thigh.

.Ge 32:32
Therefore the children of Israel eat
not [of] the sinew which
shrank, which [is] upon the hollow of
the thigh, unto this day:
because he touched the hollow of
Jacob's thigh in the sinew
that shrank.

.Ge 33:1
And Jacob lifted up his eyes, and
looked, and, behold, Esau
came, and with him four hundred
men. And he divided the children
unto Leah, and unto Rachel, and unto
the two handmaids.

.Ge 33:2
And he put the handmaids and their
children foremost, and Leah
and her children after, and Rachel and
Joseph hindermost.

.Ge 33:3
And he passed over before them, and
bowed himself to the ground
seven times, until he came near to his
brother.

.Ge 33:4
And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced
him, and fell on his
neck, and kissed him: and they wept.

.Ge 33:5
And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the
women and the children;
and said, Who [are] those with
thee? And he said, The children
which God hath graciously given thy
servant.

.Ge 33:6
Then the handmaidens came near, they
and their children,
and they bowed themselves.

.Ge 33:7
And Leah also with her children came
near, and bowed
themselves: and after came Joseph near
and Rachel, and they
bowed themselves.

.Ge 33:8
And he said, What [meanest] thou by
all this drove which I
met? And he said, [These are] to find
grace in the sight of
my lord.

.Ge 33:9
And Esau said, I have enough, my
brother; keep that thou hast
unto thyself.

.Ge 33:10
And Jacob said, Nay, I pray thee,
if now I have found grace in
thy sight, then receive my present at
my hand: for therefore
I have seen thy face, as though I had
seen the face of God,
and thou wast pleased with me.

.Ge 33:11
Take, I pray thee, my blessing that is
brought to thee;
because God hath dealt graciously with
me, and because I have
enough. And he urged him, and he took
[it].

.Ge 33:12
And he said, Let us take our journey,
and let us go, and I
will go before thee.

.Ge 33:13
And he said unto him, My lord knoweth
that the children [are]
tender, and the flocks and herds with
young [are] with me: and
if men should overdrive them one day,
all the flock will die.

.Ge 33:14
Let my lord, I pray thee, pass over
before his servant: and I
will lead on softly, according as the
cattle that goeth before
me and the children be able to endure,
until I come unto my
lord unto Seir.

.Ge 33:15
And Esau said, Let me now leave with
thee [some] of the folk
that [are] with me. And he said, What
needeth it? let me find
grace in the sight of my lord.

.Ge 33:16
So Esau returned that day on his way
unto Seir.

.Ge 33:17
And Jacob journeyed to Succoth, and
built him an house, and
made booths for his cattle: therefore
the name of the place
is called Succoth.

.Ge 33:18
And Jacob came to Shalem, a city of
Shechem, which [is] in
the land of Canaan, when he came from
Padanaram; and pitched
his tent before the city.

.Ge 33:19
And he bought a parcel of a field,
where he had spread his
tent, at the hand of the children of
Hamor, Shechem's father,
for an hundred pieces of money.

.Ge 33:20
And he erected there an altar, and
called it Elelohe-Israel.

.Ge 34:1
And Dinah the daughter of Leah, which
she bare unto Jacob,
went out to see the daughters of the
land.

.Ge 34:2
And when Shechem the son of Hamor the
Hivite, prince of the
country, saw her, he took her, and lay
with her, and defiled
her.

.Ge 34:3
And his soul clave unto Dinah the
daughter of Jacob, and he
loved the damsel, and spake kindly unto
the damsel.

.Ge 34:4
And Shechem spake unto his father
Hamor, saying, Get me this
damsel to wife.

.Ge 34:5
And Jacob heard that he had defiled
Dinah his daughter: now
his sons were with his cattle in the
field: and Jacob held
his peace until they were come.

.Ge 34:6
And Hamor the father of Shechem went
out unto Jacob to commune
with him.

.Ge 34:7
And the sons of Jacob came out of the
field when they heard
[it]: and the men were grieved, and
they were very wroth,
because he had wrought folly in Israel
in lying with Jacob's
daughter; which thing ought not to be
done.

.Ge 34:8
And Hamor communed with them, saying,
The soul of my son Shechem
longeth for your daughter: I pray you
give her him to wife.

.Ge 34:9
And make ye marriages with us, [and]
give your daughters unto
us, and take our daughters unto you.

.Ge 34:10
And ye shall dwell with us: and the
land shall be before you;
dwell and trade ye therein, and get
you possessions therein.

.Ge 34:11
And Shechem said unto her father and
unto her brethren, Let
me find grace in your eyes, and what
ye shall say unto me I
will give.

.Ge 34:12
Ask me never so much dowry and gift,
and I will give according
as ye shall say unto me: but give me
the damsel to wife.

.Ge 34:13
And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem
and Hamor his father
deceitfully, and said, because he had
defiled Dinah their
sister:

.Ge 34:14
And they said unto them, We cannot do
this thing, to give
our sister to one that is
uncircumcised; for that [were]
a reproach unto us:

.Ge 34:15
But in this will we consent unto you:
If ye will be as we
[be], that every male of you be
circumcised;

.Ge 34:16
Then will we give our daughters unto
you, and we will take
your daughters to us, and we will dwell
with you, and we will
become one people.

.Ge 34:17
But if ye will not hearken unto us,
to be circumcised; then
will we take our daughter, and we will
be gone.

.Ge 34:18
And their words pleased Hamor, and
Shechem Hamor's son.

.Ge 34:19
And the young man deferred not to do
the thing, because he had
delight in Jacob's daughter: and he
[was] more honourable than
all the house of his father.

.Ge 34:20
And Hamor and Shechem his son came unto
the gate of their city,
and communed with the men of their
city, saying,

.Ge 34:21
These men [are] peaceable with us;
therefore let them dwell
in the land, and trade therein; for
the land, behold, [it is]
large enough for them; let us take
their daughters to us for
wives, and let us give them our
daughters.

.Ge 34:22
Only herein will the men consent unto
us for to dwell with
us, to be one people, if every male
among us be circumcised,
as they [are] circumcised.

.Ge 34:23
[Shall] not their cattle and their
substance and every beast
of theirs [be] ours? only let us
consent unto them, and they
will dwell with us.

.Ge 34:24
And unto Hamor and unto Shechem his
son hearkened all that went
out of the gate of his city; and every
male was circumcised,
all that went out of the gate of his
city.

.Ge 34:25
And it came to pass on the third day,
when they were sore, that
two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and
Levi, Dinah's brethren,
took each man his sword, and came upon
the city boldly, and
slew all the males.

.Ge 34:26
And they slew Hamor and Shechem his
son with the edge of the
sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem's
house, and went out.

.Ge 34:27
The sons of Jacob came upon the slain,
and spoiled the city,
because they had defiled their sister.

.Ge 34:28
They took their sheep, and their oxen,
and their asses, and that
which [was] in the city, and that which
[was] in the field,

.Ge 34:29
And all their wealth, and all their
little ones, and their
wives took they captive, and spoiled
even all that [was]
in the house.

.Ge 34:30
And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi,
Ye have troubled me to
make me to stink among the inhabitants
of the land, among the
Canaanites and the Perizzites: and I
[being] few in number,
they shall gather themselves together
against me, and slay me;
and I shall be destroyed, I and my
house.

.Ge 34:31
And they said, Should he deal with our
sister as with an
harlot?

.Ge 35:1
And God said unto Jacob, Arise, go up
to Bethel, and dwell
there: and make there an altar unto
God, that appeared unto
thee when thou fleddest from the face
of Esau thy brother.

.Ge 35:2
Then Jacob said unto his household,
and to all that [were]
with him, Put away the strange gods
that [are] among you,
and be clean, and change your garments:


.Ge 35:3
And let us arise, and go up to Bethel;
and I will make there
an altar unto God, who answered me in
the day of my distress,
and was with me in the way which I
went.

.Ge 35:4
And they gave unto Jacob all the
strange gods which [were]
in their hand, and [all their] earrings
which [were] in their
ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak
which [was] by Shechem.

.Ge 35:5
And they journeyed: and the terror of
God was upon the cities
that [were] round about them, and they
did not pursue after
the sons of Jacob.

.Ge 35:6
So Jacob came to Luz, which [is] in
the land of Canaan, that
[is], Bethel, he and all the people
that [were] with him.

.Ge 35:7
And he built there an altar, and called
the place Elbethel:
because there God appeared unto him,
when he fled from the
face of his brother.

.Ge 35:8
But Deborah Rebekah's nurse died,
and she was buried
beneath Bethel under an oak: and the
name of it was called
Allonbachuth.

.Ge 35:9
And God appeared unto Jacob again,
when he came out of
Padanaram, and blessed him.

.Ge 35:10
And God said unto him, Thy name [is]
Jacob: thy name shall
not be called any more Jacob, but
Israel shall be thy name:
and he called his name Israel.

.Ge 35:11
And God said unto him, I [am] God
Almighty: be fruitful and
multiply; a nation and a company of
nations shall be of thee,
and kings shall come out of thy loins;

.Ge 35:12
And the land which I gave Abraham and
Isaac, to thee I will
give it, and to thy seed after thee
will I give the land.

.Ge 35:13
And God went up from him in the place
where he talked with him.

.Ge 35:14
And Jacob set up a pillar in the place
where he talked with
him, [even] a pillar of stone: and he
poured a drink offering
thereon, and he poured oil thereon.

.Ge 35:15
And Jacob called the name of the place
where God spake with him,
Bethel.

.Ge 35:16
And they journeyed from Bethel; and
there was but a little
way to come to Ephrath: and Rachel
travailed, and she had hard
labour.

.Ge 35:17
And it came to pass, when she was in
hard labour, that the
midwife said unto her, Fear not; thou
shalt have this son also.

.Ge 35:18
And it came to pass, as her soul was
in departing, (for she
died) that she called his name Benoni:
but his father called
him Benjamin.

.Ge 35:19
And Rachel died, and was buried in the
way to Ephrath, which
[is] Bethlehem.

.Ge 35:20
And Jacob set a pillar upon her grave:
that [is] the pillar
of Rachel's grave unto this day.

.Ge 35:21
And Israel journeyed, and spread his
tent beyond the tower of
Edar.

.Ge 35:22
And it came to pass, when Israel dwelt
in that land, that
Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his
father's concubine: and
Israel heard [it]. Now the sons of
Jacob were twelve:

.Ge 35:23
The sons of Leah; Reuben, Jacob's
firstborn, and Simeon,
and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar,
and Zebulun:

.Ge 35:24
The sons of Rachel; Joseph, and
Benjamin:

.Ge 35:25
And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's
handmaid; Dan, and Naphtali:

.Ge 35:26
And the sons of Zilpah, Leah's
handmaid; Gad, and Asher: these
[are] the sons of Jacob, which were
born to him in Padanaram.

.Ge 35:27
And Jacob came unto Isaac his father
unto Mamre, unto the city
of Arbah, which [is] Hebron, where
Abraham and Isaac sojourned.

.Ge 35:28
And the days of Isaac were an hundred
and fourscore years.

.Ge 35:29
And Isaac gave up the ghost, and died,
and was gathered unto
his people, [being] old and full of
days: and his sons Esau
and Jacob buried him.

.Ge 36:1
Now these [are] the generations of
Esau, who [is] Edom.

.Ge 36:2
Esau took his wives of the daughters
of Canaan; Adah the
daughter of Elon the Hittite, and
Aholibamah the daughter of
Anah the daughter of Zibeon the
Hivite;

.Ge 36:3
And Bashemath Ishmael's daughter,
sister of Nebajoth.

.Ge 36:4
And Adah bare to Esau Eliphaz; and
Bashemath bare Reuel;

.Ge 36:5
And Aholibamah bare Jeush, and Jaalam,
and Korah: these [are]
the sons of Esau, which were born unto
him in the land of
Canaan.

.Ge 36:6
And Esau took his wives, and his sons,
and his daughters,
and all the persons of his house,
and his cattle, and all his
beasts, and all his substance, which
he had got in the land of
Canaan; and went into the country from
the face of his brother
Jacob.

.Ge 36:7
For their riches were more than that
they might dwell together;
and the land wherein they were
strangers could not bear them
because of their cattle.

.Ge 36:8
Thus dwelt Esau in mount Seir: Esau
[is] Edom.

.Ge 36:9
And these [are] the generations of Esau
the father of the
Edomites in mount Seir:

.Ge 36:10
These [are] the names of Esau's sons;
Eliphaz the son of Adah
the wife of Esau, Reuel the son of
Bashemath the wife of Esau.

.Ge 36:11
And the sons of Eliphaz were Teman,
Omar, Zepho, and Gatam,
and Kenaz.

.Ge 36:12
And Timna was concubine to Eliphaz
Esau's son; and she bare
to Eliphaz Amalek: these [were] the
sons of Adah Esau's wife.

.Ge 36:13
And these [are] the sons of Reuel;
Nahath, and Zerah, Shammah,
and Mizzah: these were the sons of
Bashemath Esau's wife.

.Ge 36:14
And these were the sons of Aholibamah,
the daughter of Anah the
daughter of Zibeon, Esau's wife: and
she bare to Esau Jeush,
and Jaalam, and Korah.

.Ge 36:15
These [were] dukes of the sons of Esau:
the sons of Eliphaz
the firstborn [son] of Esau; duke
Teman, duke Omar, duke Zepho,
duke Kenaz,

.Ge 36:16
Duke Korah, duke Gatam, [and] duke
Amalek: these [are] the
dukes [that came] of Eliphaz in the
land of Edom; these [were]
the sons of Adah.

.Ge 36:17
And these [are] the sons of Reuel
Esau's son; duke Nahath,
duke Zerah, duke Shammah, duke Mizzah:
these [are] the dukes
[that came] of Reuel in the land of
Edom; these [are] the sons
of Bashemath Esau's wife.

.Ge 36:18
And these [are] the sons of Aholibamah
Esau's wife; duke Jeush,
duke Jaalam, duke Korah: these [were]
the dukes [that came]
of Aholibamah the daughter of Anah,
Esau's wife.

.Ge 36:19
These [are] the sons of Esau, who [is]
Edom, and these [are]
their dukes.

.Ge 36:20
These [are] the sons of Seir the
Horite, who inhabited the land;
Lotan, and Shobal, and Zibeon, and
Anah,

.Ge 36:21
And Dishon, and Ezer, and Dishan: these
[are] the dukes of
the Horites, the children of Seir in
the land of Edom.

.Ge 36:22
And the children of Lotan were Hori
and Hemam; and Lotan's
sister [was] Timna.

.Ge 36:23
And the children of Shobal [were]
these; Alvan, and Manahath,
and Ebal, Shepho, and Onam.

.Ge 36:24
And these [are] the children of Zibeon;
both Ajah, and Anah:
this [was that] Anah that found the
mules in the wilderness,
as he fed the asses of Zibeon his
father.

.Ge 36:25
And the children of Anah [were] these;
Dishon, and Aholibamah
the daughter of Anah.

.Ge 36:26
And these [are] the children of Dishon;
Hemdan, and Eshban,
and Ithran, and Cheran.

.Ge 36:27
The children of Ezer [are] these;
Bilhan, and Zaavan, and Akan.

.Ge 36:28
The children of Dishan [are] these;
Uz, and Aran.

.Ge 36:29
These [are] the dukes [that came]
of the Horites; duke Lotan,
duke Shobal, duke Zibeon, duke Anah,

.Ge 36:30
Duke Dishon, duke Ezer, duke Dishan:
these [are] the dukes
[that came] of Hori, among their dukes
in the land of Seir.

.Ge 36:31
And these [are] the kings that reigned
in the land of Edom,
before there reigned any king over the
children of Israel.

.Ge 36:32
And Bela the son of Beor reigned in
Edom: and the name of his
city [was] Dinhabah.

.Ge 36:33
And Bela died, and Jobab the son of
Zerah of Bozrah reigned
in his stead.

.Ge 36:34
And Jobab died, and Husham of the land
of Temani reigned in
his stead.

.Ge 36:35
And Husham died, and Hadad the son of
Bedad, who smote Midian
in the field of Moab, reigned in his
stead: and the name of
his city [was] Avith.

.Ge 36:36
And Hadad died, and Samlah of Masrekah
reigned in his stead.

.Ge 36:37
And Samlah died, and Saul of Rehoboth
[by] the river reigned
in his stead.

.Ge 36:38
And Saul died, and Baalhanan the son
of Achbor reigned in his
stead.

.Ge 36:39
And Baalhanan the son of Achbor died,
and Hadar reigned in
his stead: and the name of his city
[was] Pau; and his wife's
name [was] Mehetabel, the daughter of
Matred, the daughter of
Mezahab.

.Ge 36:40
And these [are] the names of the dukes
[that came] of Esau,
according to their families, after
their places, by their names;
duke Timnah, duke Alvah, duke Jetheth,

.Ge 36:41
Duke Aholibamah, duke Elah, duke
Pinon,

.Ge 36:42
Duke Kenaz, duke Teman, duke Mibzar,

.Ge 36:43
Duke Magdiel, duke Iram: these [be]
the dukes of Edom, according
to their habitations in the land of
their possession: he [is]
Esau the father of the Edomites.

.Ge 37:1
And Jacob dwelt in the land wherein
his father was a stranger,
in the land of Canaan.

.Ge 37:2
These [are] the generations of
Jacob. Joseph, [being] seventeen
years old, was feeding the flock with
his brethren; and the lad
[was] with the sons of Bilhah, and with
the sons of Zilpah,
his father's wives: and Joseph brought
unto his father their
evil report.

.Ge 37:3
Now Israel loved Joseph more than all
his children, because he
[was] the son of his old age: and he
made him a coat of [many]
colours.

.Ge 37:4
And when his brethren saw that their
father loved him more
than all his brethren, they hated him,
and could not speak
peaceably unto him.

.Ge 37:5
And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told
[it] his brethren:
and they hated him yet the more.

.Ge 37:6
And he said unto them, Hear, I pray
you, this dream which I
have dreamed:

.Ge 37:7
For, behold, we [were] binding sheaves
in the field, and,
lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood
upright; and, behold,
your sheaves stood round about, and
made obeisance to my sheaf.

.Ge 37:8
And his brethren said to him, Shalt
thou indeed reign over
us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion
over us? And they hated
him yet the more for his dreams, and
for his words.

.Ge 37:9
And he dreamed yet another dream,
and told it his brethren,
and said, Behold, I have dreamed a
dream more; and, behold,
the sun and the moon and the eleven
stars made obeisance to me.

.Ge 37:10
And he told [it] to his father, and to
his brethren: and his
father rebuked him, and said unto him,
What [is] this dream
that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and
thy mother and thy brethren
indeed come to bow down ourselves to
thee to the earth?

.Ge 37:11
And his brethren envied him; but his
father observed the
saying.

.Ge 37:12
And his brethren went to feed their
father's flock in Shechem.

.Ge 37:13
And Israel said unto Joseph, Do not
thy brethren feed [the
flock] in Shechem? come, and I will
send thee unto them. And
he said to him, Here [am I].

.Ge 37:14
And he said to him, Go, I pray thee,
see whether it be well
with thy brethren, and well with the
flocks; and bring me word
again. So he sent him out of the vale
of Hebron, and he came
to Shechem.

.Ge 37:15
And a certain man found him, and,
behold, [he was] wandering
in the field: and the man asked him,
saying, What seekest thou?

.Ge 37:16
And he said, I seek my brethren: tell
me, I pray thee, where
they feed [their flocks].

.Ge 37:17
And the man said, They are departed
hence; for I heard them
say, Let us go to Dothan. And Joseph
went after his brethren,
and found them in Dothan.

.Ge 37:18
And when they saw him afar off, even
before he came near unto
them, they conspired against him to
slay him.

.Ge 37:19
And they said one to another, Behold,
this dreamer cometh.

.Ge 37:20
Come now therefore, and let us slay
him, and cast him into
some pit, and we will say, Some evil
beast hath devoured him:
and we shall see what will become of
his dreams.

.Ge 37:21
And Reuben heard [it], and he delivered
him out of their hands;
and said, Let us not kill him.

.Ge 37:22
And Reuben said unto them, Shed no
blood, [but] cast him into
this pit that [is] in the wilderness,
and lay no hand upon him;
that he might rid him out of their
hands, to deliver him to
his father again.

.Ge 37:23
And it came to pass, when Joseph was
come unto his brethren,
that they stript Joseph out of his
coat, [his] coat of [many]
colours that [was] on him;

.Ge 37:24
And they took him, and cast him into
a pit: and the pit [was]
empty, [there was] no water in it.

.Ge 37:25
And they sat down to eat bread: and
they lifted up their eyes
and looked, and, behold, a company of
Ishmeelites came from
Gilead with their camels bearing
spicery and balm and myrrh,
going to carry [it] down to Egypt.

.Ge 37:26
And Judah said unto his brethren,
What profit [is it] if we
slay our brother, and conceal his
blood?

.Ge 37:27
Come, and let us sell him to the
Ishmeelites, and let not our
hand be upon him; for he [is] our
brother [and] our flesh. And
his brethren were content.

.Ge 37:28
Then there passed by Midianites
merchantmen; and they drew
and lifted up Joseph out of the pit,
and sold Joseph to the
Ishmeelites for twenty [pieces] of
silver: and they brought
Joseph into Egypt.

.Ge 37:29
And Reuben returned unto the pit; and,
behold, Joseph [was]
not in the pit; and he rent his
clothes.

.Ge 37:30
And he returned unto his brethren,
and said, The child [is]
not; and I, whither shall I go?

.Ge 37:31
And they took Joseph's coat, and killed
a kid of the goats,
and dipped the coat in the blood;

.Ge 37:32
And they sent the coat of [many]
colours, and they brought
[it] to their father; and said, This
have we found: know now
whether it [be] thy son's coat or no.

.Ge 37:33
And he knew it, and said, [It is]
my son's coat; an evil beast
hath devoured him; Joseph is without
doubt rent in pieces.

.Ge 37:34
And Jacob rent his clothes, and put
sackcloth upon his loins,
and mourned for his son many days.

.Ge 37:35
And all his sons and all his daughters
rose up to comfort him;
but he refused to be comforted; and he
said, For I will go down
into the grave unto my son
mourning. Thus his father wept for
him.

.Ge 37:36
And the Midianites sold him into Egypt
unto Potiphar, an
officer of Pharaoh's, [and] captain of
the guard.

.Ge 38:1
And it came to pass at that time,
that Judah went down from
his brethren, and turned in to a
certain Adullamite, whose name
[was] Hirah.

.Ge 38:2
And Judah saw there a daughter of a
certain Canaanite, whose
name [was] Shuah; and he took her,
and went in unto her.

.Ge 38:3
And she conceived, and bare a son;
and he called his name Er.

.Ge 38:4
And she conceived again, and bare a
son; and she called his
name Onan.

.Ge 38:5
And she yet again conceived, and bare
a son; and called his
name Shelah: and he was at Chezib,
when she bare him.

.Ge 38:6
And Judah took a wife for Er his
firstborn, whose name [was]
Tamar.

.Ge 38:7
And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked
in the sight of the LORD;
and the LORD slew him.

.Ge 38:8
And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto
thy brother's wife,
and marry her, and raise up seed to
thy brother.

.Ge 38:9
And Onan knew that the seed should not
be his; and it came
to pass, when he went in unto his
brother's wife, that he
spilled [it] on the ground, lest that
he should give seed to
his brother.

.Ge 38:10
And the thing which he did displeased
the LORD: wherefore he
slew him also.

.Ge 38:11
Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter
in law, Remain a widow at
thy father's house, till Shelah my son
be grown: for he said,
Lest peradventure he die also, as his
brethren [did]. And
Tamar went and dwelt in her father's
house.

.Ge 38:12
And in process of time the daughter of
Shuah Judah's wife died;
and Judah was comforted, and went up
unto his sheepshearers
to Timnath, he and his friend Hirah
the Adullamite.

.Ge 38:13
And it was told Tamar, saying, Behold
thy father in law goeth
up to Timnath to shear his sheep.

.Ge 38:14
And she put her widow's garments off
from her, and covered her
with a vail, and wrapped herself,
and sat in an open place,
which [is] by the way to Timnath;
for she saw that Shelah was
grown, and she was not given unto him
to wife.

.Ge 38:15
When Judah saw her, he thought her
[to be] an harlot; because
she had covered her face.

.Ge 38:16
And he turned unto her by the way,
and said, Go to, I pray
thee, let me come in unto thee; (for
he knew not that she [was]
his daughter in law.) And she said,
What wilt thou give me,
that thou mayest come in unto me?

.Ge 38:17
And he said, I will send [thee] a kid
from the flock. And she
said, Wilt thou give [me] a pledge,
till thou send [it]?

.Ge 38:18
And he said, What pledge shall I give
thee? And she said,
Thy signet, and thy bracelets, and thy
staff that [is] in
thine hand. And he gave [it] her,
and came in unto her, and
she conceived by him.

.Ge 38:19
And she arose, and went away, and laid
by her vail from her,
and put on the garments of her
widowhood.

.Ge 38:20
And Judah sent the kid by the hand of
his friend the Adullamite,
to receive [his] pledge from the
woman's hand: but he found
her not.

.Ge 38:21
Then he asked the men of that place,
saying, Where [is] the
harlot, that [was] openly by the way
side? And they said,
There was no harlot in this [place].

.Ge 38:22
And he returned to Judah, and said,
I cannot find her; and also
the men of the place said, [that]
there was no harlot in this
[place].

.Ge 38:23
And Judah said, Let her take [it]
to her, lest we be shamed:
behold, I sent this kid, and thou hast
not found her.

.Ge 38:24
And it came to pass about three months
after, that it was told
Judah, saying, Tamar thy daughter in
law hath played the harlot;
and also, behold, she [is] with child
by whoredom. And Judah
said, Bring her forth, and let her be
burnt.

.Ge 38:25
When she [was] brought forth, she sent
to her father in law,
saying, By the man, whose these [are,
am] I with child: and
she said, Discern, I pray thee, whose
[are] these, the signet,
and bracelets, and staff.

.Ge 38:26
And Judah acknowledged [them], and
said, She hath been more
righteous than I; because that I gave
her not to Shelah my
son. And he knew her again no more.

.Ge 38:27
And it came to pass in the time of her
travail, that, behold,
twins [were] in her womb.

.Ge 38:28
And it came to pass, when she
travailed, that [the one] put
out [his] hand: and the midwife took
and bound upon his hand
a scarlet thread, saying, This came
out first.

.Ge 38:29
And it came to pass, as he drew back
his hand, that, behold,
his brother came out: and she said,
How hast thou broken
forth? [this] breach [be] upon thee:
therefore his name was
called Pharez.

.Ge 38:30
And afterward came out his brother,
that had the scarlet thread
upon his hand: and his name was called
Zarah.

.Ge 39:1
And Joseph was brought down to Egypt;
and Potiphar, an officer
of Pharaoh, captain of the guard,
an Egyptian, bought him of the
hands of the Ishmeelites, which had
brought him down thither.

.Ge 39:2
And the LORD was with Joseph, and he
was a prosperous man;
and he was in the house of his master
the Egyptian.

.Ge 39:3
And his master saw that the LORD [was]
with him, and that the
LORD made all that he did to prosper
in his hand.

.Ge 39:4
And Joseph found grace in his sight,
and he served him: and
he made him overseer over his house,
and all [that] he had he
put into his hand.

.Ge 39:5
And it came to pass from the time
[that] he had made him
overseer in his house, and over all
that he had, that the
LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for
Joseph's sake; and the
blessing of the LORD was upon all that
he had in the house,
and in the field.

.Ge 39:6
And he left all that he had in Joseph's
hand; and he knew not
ought he had, save the bread which he
did eat. And Joseph was
[a] goodly [person], and well
favoured.

.Ge 39:7
And it came to pass after these things,
that his master's wife
cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she
said, Lie with me.

.Ge 39:8
But he refused, and said unto his
master's wife, Behold,
my master wotteth not what [is] with
me in the house, and he
hath committed all that he hath to my
hand;

.Ge 39:9
[There is] none greater in this house
than I; neither hath
he kept back any thing from me but
thee, because thou [art]
his wife: how then can I do this great
wickedness, and sin
against God?

.Ge 39:10
And it came to pass, as she spake to
Joseph day by day, that
he hearkened not unto her, to lie by
her, [or] to be with her.

.Ge 39:11
And it came to pass about this time,
that [Joseph] went into
the house to do his business; and
[there was] none of the men
of the house there within.

.Ge 39:12
And she caught him by his garment,
saying, Lie with me: and
he left his garment in her hand, and
fled, and got him out.

.Ge 39:13
And it came to pass, when she saw that
he had left his garment
in her hand, and was fled forth,

.Ge 39:14
That she called unto the men of her
house, and spake unto them,
saying, See, he hath brought in an
Hebrew unto us to mock us; he
came in unto me to lie with me, and I
cried with a loud voice:

.Ge 39:15
And it came to pass, when he heard that
I lifted up my voice
and cried, that he left his garment
with me, and fled, and
got him out.

.Ge 39:16
And she laid up his garment by her,
until his lord came home.

.Ge 39:17
And she spake unto him according to
these words, saying, The
Hebrew servant, which thou hast brought
unto us, came in unto
me to mock me:

.Ge 39:18
And it came to pass, as I lifted up my
voice and cried, that
he left his garment with me, and fled
out.

.Ge 39:19
And it came to pass, when his master
heard the words of his
wife, which she spake unto him, saying,
After this manner did
thy servant to me; that his wrath was
kindled.

.Ge 39:20
And Joseph's master took him, and put
him into the prison,
a place where the king's prisoners
[were] bound: and he was
there in the prison.

.Ge 39:21
But the LORD was with Joseph, and
shewed him mercy, and gave
him favour in the sight of the keeper
of the prison.

.Ge 39:22
And the keeper of the prison committed
to Joseph's hand all
the prisoners that [were] in the
prison; and whatsoever they
did there, he was the doer [of it].

.Ge 39:23
The keeper of the prison looked not to
any thing [that was]
under his hand; because the LORD was
with him, and [that]
which he did, the LORD made [it] to
prosper.

.Ge 40:1
And it came to pass after these things,
[that] the butler of
the king of Egypt and [his] baker had
offended their lord the
king of Egypt.

.Ge 40:2
And Pharaoh was wroth against two [of]
his officers, against
the chief of the butlers, and against
the chief of the bakers.

.Ge 40:3
And he put them in ward in the house
of the captain of the
guard, into the prison, the place where
Joseph [was] bound.

.Ge 40:4
And the captain of the guard charged
Joseph with them, and he
served them: and they continued a
season in ward.

.Ge 40:5
And they dreamed a dream both of them,
each man his dream in
one night, each man according to the
interpretation of his
dream, the butler and the baker of the
king of Egypt, which
[were] bound in the prison.

.Ge 40:6
And Joseph came in unto them in the
morning, and looked upon
them, and, behold, they [were] sad.

.Ge 40:7
And he asked Pharaoh's officers that
[were] with him in the
ward of his lord's house, saying,
Wherefore look ye [so]
sadly to day?

.Ge 40:8
And they said unto him, We have dreamed
a dream, and [there
is] no interpreter of it. And Joseph
said unto them, [Do] not
interpretations [belong] to God? tell
me [them], I pray you.

.Ge 40:9
And the chief butler told his dream to
Joseph, and said to him,
In my dream, behold, a vine [was]
before me;

.Ge 40:10
And in the vine [were] three branches:
and it [was] as though
it budded, [and] her blossoms shot
forth; and the clusters
thereof brought forth ripe grapes:

.Ge 40:11
And Pharaoh's cup [was] in my hand:
and I took the grapes,
and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup,
and I gave the cup into
Pharaoh's hand.

.Ge 40:12
And Joseph said unto him, This [is]
the interpretation of it:
The three branches [are] three days:

.Ge 40:13
Yet within three days shall Pharaoh
lift up thine head, and
restore thee unto thy place: and thou
shalt deliver Pharaoh's
cup into his hand, after the former
manner when thou wast his
butler.

.Ge 40:14
But think on me when it shall be well
with thee, and shew
kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and
make mention of me unto
Pharaoh, and bring me out of this
house:

.Ge 40:15
For indeed I was stolen away out of
the land of the Hebrews:
and here also have I done nothing that
they should put me into
the dungeon.

.Ge 40:16
When the chief baker saw that the
interpretation was good,
he said unto Joseph, I also [was]
in my dream, and, behold,
[I had] three white baskets on my
head:

.Ge 40:17
And in the uppermost basket [there was]
of all manner of
bakemeats for Pharaoh; and the birds
did eat them out of the
basket upon my head.

.Ge 40:18
And Joseph answered and said, This [is]
the interpretation
thereof: The three baskets [are] three
days:

.Ge 40:19
Yet within three days shall Pharaoh
lift up thy head from off
thee, and shall hang thee on a tree;
and the birds shall eat
thy flesh from off thee.

.Ge 40:20
And it came to pass the third day,
[which was] Pharaoh's
birthday, that he made a feast unto
all his servants: and he
lifted up the head of the chief butler
and of the chief baker
among his servants.

.Ge 40:21
And he restored the chief butler unto
his butlership again;
and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's
hand:

.Ge 40:22
But he hanged the chief baker: as
Joseph had interpreted to
them.

.Ge 40:23
Yet did not the chief butler remember
Joseph, but forgat him.

.Ge 41:1
And it came to pass at the end of two
full years, that Pharaoh
dreamed: and, behold, he stood by the
river.

.Ge 41:2
And, behold, there came up out of the
river seven well favoured
kine and fatfleshed; and they fed in
a meadow.

.Ge 41:3
And, behold, seven other kine came up
after them out of the
river, ill favoured and leanfleshed;
and stood by the [other]
kine upon the brink of the river.

.Ge 41:4
And the ill favoured and leanfleshed
kine did eat up the seven
well favoured and fat kine. So Pharaoh
awoke.

.Ge 41:5
And he slept and dreamed the second
time: and, behold, seven
ears of corn came up upon one stalk,
rank and good.

.Ge 41:6
And, behold, seven thin ears and
blasted with the east wind
sprung up after them.

.Ge 41:7
And the seven thin ears devoured the
seven rank and full
ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold,
[it was] a dream.

.Ge 41:8
And it came to pass in the morning that
his spirit was troubled;
and he sent and called for all the
magicians of Egypt, and
all the wise men thereof: and Pharaoh
told them his dream;
but [there was] none that could
interpret them unto Pharaoh.

.Ge 41:9
Then spake the chief butler unto
Pharaoh, saying, I do remember
my faults this day:

.Ge 41:10
Pharaoh was wroth with his servants,
and put me in ward in the
captain of the guard's house, [both]
me and the chief baker:

.Ge 41:11
And we dreamed a dream in one night,
I and he; we dreamed each
man according to the interpretation of
his dream.

.Ge 41:12
And [there was] there with us a young
man, an Hebrew, servant to
the captain of the guard; and we told
him, and he interpreted
to us our dreams; to each man according
to his dream he did
interpret.

.Ge 41:13
And it came to pass, as he interpreted
to us, so it was;
me he restored unto mine office, and
him he hanged.

.Ge 41:14
Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph,
and they brought him
hastily out of the dungeon: and he
shaved [himself], and
changed his raiment, and came in unto
Pharaoh.

.Ge 41:15
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I have
dreamed a dream, and [there
is] none that can interpret it: and I
have heard say of thee,
[that] thou canst understand a dream
to interpret it.

.Ge 41:16
And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying,
[It is] not in me: God
shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace.

.Ge 41:17
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, In my
dream, behold, I stood
upon the bank of the river:

.Ge 41:18
And, behold, there came up out of the
river seven kine,
fatfleshed and well favoured; and they
fed in a meadow:

.Ge 41:19
And, behold, seven other kine came up
after them, poor and
very ill favoured and leanfleshed,
such as I never saw in all
the land of Egypt for badness:

.Ge 41:20
And the lean and the ill favoured kine
did eat up the first
seven fat kine:

.Ge 41:21
And when they had eaten them up, it
could not be known that
they had eaten them; but they [were]
still ill favoured,
as at the beginning. So I awoke.

.Ge 41:22
And I saw in my dream, and, behold,
seven ears came up in one
stalk, full and good:

.Ge 41:23
And, behold, seven ears, withered,
thin, [and] blasted with
the east wind, sprung up after them:

.Ge 41:24
And the thin ears devoured the seven
good ears: and I told
[this] unto the magicians; but [there
was] none that could
declare [it] to me.

.Ge 41:25
And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream
of Pharaoh [is] one:
God hath shewed Pharaoh what he [is]
about to do.

.Ge 41:26
The seven good kine [are] seven years;
and the seven good ears
[are] seven years: the dream [is] one.

.Ge 41:27
And the seven thin and ill favoured
kine that came up after
them [are] seven years; and the seven
empty ears blasted with
the east wind shall be seven years of
famine.

.Ge 41:28
This [is] the thing which I have spoken
unto Pharaoh: What God
[is] about to do he sheweth unto
Pharaoh.

.Ge 41:29
Behold, there come seven years of great
plenty throughout all
the land of Egypt:

.Ge 41:30
And there shall arise after them seven
years of famine;
and all the plenty shall be forgotten
in the land of Egypt;
and the famine shall consume the land;

.Ge 41:31
And the plenty shall not be known in
the land by reason of
that famine following; for it [shall
be] very grievous.

.Ge 41:32
And for that the dream was doubled unto
Pharaoh twice; [it is]
because the thing [is] established by
God, and God will shortly
bring it to pass.

.Ge 41:33
Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a
man discreet and wise,
and set him over the land of Egypt.

.Ge 41:34
Let Pharaoh do [this], and let him
appoint officers over the
land, and take up the fifth part of
the land of Egypt in the
seven plenteous years.

.Ge 41:35
And let them gather all the food of
those good years that come,
and lay up corn under the hand of
Pharaoh, and let them keep
food in the cities.

.Ge 41:36
And that food shall be for store to
the land against the
seven years of famine, which shall be
in the land of Egypt;
that the land perish not through the
famine.

.Ge 41:37
And the thing was good in the eyes of
Pharaoh, and in the eyes
of all his servants.

.Ge 41:38
And Pharaoh said unto his servants,
Can we find [such a one]
as this [is], a man in whom the Spirit
of God [is]?

.Ge 41:39
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch
as God hath shewed thee
all this, [there is] none so discreet
and wise as thou [art]:

.Ge 41:40
Thou shalt be over my house, and
according unto thy word shall
all my people be ruled: only in the
throne will I be greater
than thou.

.Ge 41:41
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See,
I have set thee over all
the land of Egypt.

.Ge 41:42
And Pharaoh took off his ring from his
hand, and put it upon
Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in
vestures of fine linen,
and put a gold chain about his neck;

.Ge 41:43
And he made him to ride in the second
chariot which he had;
and they cried before him, Bow the
knee: and he made him
[ruler] over all the land of Egypt.

.Ge 41:44
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I [am]
Pharaoh, and without thee
shall no man lift up his hand or foot
in all the land of Egypt.

.Ge 41:45
And Pharaoh called Joseph's name
Zaphnathpaaneah; and he
gave him to wife Asenath the daughter
of Potipherah priest of
On. And Joseph went out over [all]
the land of Egypt.

.Ge 41:46
And Joseph [was] thirty years old when
he stood before Pharaoh
king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from
the presence of Pharaoh,
and went throughout all the land of
Egypt.

.Ge 41:47
And in the seven plenteous years the
earth brought forth by
handfuls.

.Ge 41:48
And he gathered up all the food of the
seven years, which were
in the land of Egypt, and laid up the
food in the cities:
the food of the field, which [was]
round about every city,
laid he up in the same.

.Ge 41:49
And Joseph gathered corn as the sand
of the sea, very much,
until he left numbering; for [it was]
without number.

.Ge 41:50
And unto Joseph were born two sons
before the years of famine
came, which Asenath the daughter of
Potipherah priest of On
bare unto him.

.Ge 41:51
And Joseph called the name of the
firstborn Manasseh: For God,
[said he], hath made me forget all my
toil, and all my father's
house.

.Ge 41:52
And the name of the second called he
Ephraim: For God hath
caused me to be fruitful in the land
of my affliction.

.Ge 41:53
And the seven years of plenteousness,
that was in the land of
Egypt, were ended.

.Ge 41:54
And the seven years of dearth began to
come, according as
Joseph had said: and the dearth was in
all lands; but in all
the land of Egypt there was bread.

.Ge 41:55
And when all the land of Egypt was
famished, the people cried
to Pharaoh for bread: and Pharaoh said
unto all the Egyptians,
Go unto Joseph; what he saith to you,
do.

.Ge 41:56
And the famine was over all the face
of the earth: And Joseph
opened all the storehouses, and sold
unto the Egyptians;
and the famine waxed sore in the land
of Egypt.

.Ge 41:57
And all countries came into Egypt to
Joseph for to buy [corn];
because that the famine was [so] sore
in all lands.

.Ge 42:1
Now when Jacob saw that there was corn
in Egypt, Jacob said
unto his sons, Why do ye look one upon
another?

.Ge 42:2
And he said, Behold, I have heard that
there is corn in Egypt:
get you down thither, and buy for us
from thence; that we may
live, and not die.

.Ge 42:3
And Joseph's ten brethren went down to
buy corn in Egypt.

.Ge 42:4
But Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob
sent not with his
brethren; for he said, Lest
peradventure mischief befall him.

.Ge 42:5
And the sons of Israel came to buy
[corn] among those that came:
for the famine was in the land of
Canaan.

.Ge 42:6
And Joseph [was] the governor over the
land, [and] he [it was]
that sold to all the people of the
land: and Joseph's brethren
came, and bowed down themselves before
him [with] their faces
to the earth.

.Ge 42:7
And Joseph saw his brethren, and he
knew them, but made himself
strange unto them, and spake roughly
unto them; and he said
unto them, Whence come ye? And they
said, From the land of
Canaan to buy food.

.Ge 42:8
And Joseph knew his brethren, but they
knew not him.

.Ge 42:9
And Joseph remembered the dreams which
he dreamed of them,
and said unto them, Ye [are] spies;
to see the nakedness of
the land ye are come.

.Ge 42:10
And they said unto him, Nay, my lord,
but to buy food are thy
servants come.

.Ge 42:11
We [are] all one man's sons; we [are]
true [men], thy servants
are no spies.

.Ge 42:12
And he said unto them, Nay, but to see
the nakedness of the
land ye are come.

.Ge 42:13
And they said, Thy servants [are]
twelve brethren, the sons
of one man in the land of Canaan; and,
behold, the youngest
[is] this day with our father, and one
[is] not.

.Ge 42:14
And Joseph said unto them, That [is it]
that I spake unto you,
saying, Ye [are] spies:

.Ge 42:15
Hereby ye shall be proved: By the life
of Pharaoh ye shall
not go forth hence, except your
youngest brother come hither.

.Ge 42:16
Send one of you, and let him fetch your
brother, and ye shall
be kept in prison, that your words may
be proved, whether
[there be any] truth in you: or else
by the life of Pharaoh
surely ye [are] spies.

.Ge 42:17
And he put them all together into ward
three days.

.Ge 42:18
And Joseph said unto them the third
day, This do, and live;
[for] I fear God:

.Ge 42:19
If ye [be] true [men], let one of your
brethren be bound in
the house of your prison: go ye, carry
corn for the famine of
your houses:

.Ge 42:20
But bring your youngest brother unto
me; so shall your words
be verified, and ye shall not die. And
they did so.

.Ge 42:21
And they said one to another, We [are]
verily guilty concerning
our brother, in that we saw the anguish
of his soul, when he
besought us, and we would not hear;
therefore is this distress
come upon us.

.Ge 42:22
And Reuben answered them, saying,
Spake I not unto you, saying,
Do not sin against the child; and ye
would not hear? therefore,
behold, also his blood is required.

.Ge 42:23
And they knew not that Joseph
understood [them]; for he spake
unto them by an interpreter.

.Ge 42:24
And he turned himself about from them,
and wept; and returned to
them again, and communed with them,
and took from them Simeon,
and bound him before their eyes.

.Ge 42:25
Then Joseph commanded to fill their
sacks with corn, and to
restore every man's money into his
sack, and to give them
provision for the way: and thus did he
unto them.

.Ge 42:26
And they laded their asses with the
corn, and departed thence.

.Ge 42:27
And as one of them opened his sack to
give his ass provender
in the inn, he espied his money; for,
behold, it [was] in his
sack's mouth.

.Ge 42:28
And he said unto his brethren, My money
is restored; and, lo,
[it is] even in my sack: and their
heart failed [them], and
they were afraid, saying one to
another, What [is] this [that]
God hath done unto us?

.Ge 42:29
And they came unto Jacob their father
unto the land of Canaan,
and told him all that befell unto them;
saying,

.Ge 42:30
The man, [who is] the lord of the land,
spake roughly to us,
and took us for spies of the country.

.Ge 42:31
And we said unto him, We [are] true
[men]; we are no spies:

.Ge 42:32
We [be] twelve brethren, sons of our
father; one [is] not,
and the youngest [is] this day with
our father in the land of
Canaan.

.Ge 42:33
And the man, the lord of the country,
said unto us, Hereby
shall I know that ye [are] true [men];
leave one of your
brethren [here] with me, and take
[food for] the famine of
your households, and be gone:

.Ge 42:34
And bring your youngest brother unto
me: then shall I know that
ye [are] no spies, but [that] ye [are]
true [men: so] will I
deliver you your brother, and ye shall
traffick in the land.

.Ge 42:35
And it came to pass as they emptied
their sacks, that, behold,
every man's bundle of money [was]
in his sack: and when [both]
they and their father saw the bundles
of money, they were
afraid.

.Ge 42:36
And Jacob their father said unto them,
Me have ye bereaved
[of my children]: Joseph [is] not,
and Simeon [is] not, and
ye will take Benjamin [away]: all these
things are against me.

.Ge 42:37
And Reuben spake unto his father,
saying, Slay my two sons,
if I bring him not to thee: deliver
him into my hand, and I
will bring him to thee again.

.Ge 42:38
And he said, My son shall not go down
with you; for his brother
is dead, and he is left alone: if
mischief befall him by the
way in the which ye go, then shall ye
bring down my gray hairs
with sorrow to the grave.

.Ge 43:1
And the famine [was] sore in the land.

.Ge 43:2
And it came to pass, when they had
eaten up the corn which
they had brought out of Egypt, their
father said unto them,
Go again, buy us a little food.

.Ge 43:3
And Judah spake unto him, saying,
The man did solemnly protest
unto us, saying, Ye shall not see my
face, except your brother
[be] with you.

.Ge 43:4
If thou wilt send our brother with us,
we will go down and
buy thee food:

.Ge 43:5
But if thou wilt not send [him], we
will not go down: for the
man said unto us, Ye shall not see my
face, except your brother
[be] with you.

.Ge 43:6
And Israel said, Wherefore dealt ye
[so] ill with me, [as]
to tell the man whether ye had yet a
brother?

.Ge 43:7
And they said, The man asked us
straitly of our state, and
of our kindred, saying, [Is] your
father yet alive? have ye
[another] brother? and we told him
according to the tenor
of these words: could we certainly know
that he would say,
Bring your brother down?

.Ge 43:8
And Judah said unto Israel his father,
Send the lad with me,
and we will arise and go; that we may
live, and not die,
both we, and thou, [and] also our
little ones.

.Ge 43:9
I will be surety for him; of my hand
shalt thou require him:
if I bring him not unto thee, and set
him before thee, then
let me bear the blame for ever:

.Ge 43:10
For except we had lingered, surely now
we had returned this
second time.

.Ge 43:11
And their father Israel said unto them,
If [it must be] so now,
do this; take of the best fruits in
the land in your vessels,
and carry down the man a present,
a little balm, and a little
honey, spices, and myrrh, nuts, and
almonds:

.Ge 43:12
And take double money in your hand;
and the money that was
brought again in the mouth of your
sacks, carry [it] again in
your hand; peradventure it [was] an
oversight:

.Ge 43:13
Take also your brother, and arise,
go again unto the man:

.Ge 43:14
And God Almighty give you mercy before
the man, that he may
send away your other brother, and
Benjamin. If I be bereaved
[of my children], I am bereaved.

.Ge 43:15
And the men took that present, and they
took double money in
their hand, and Benjamin; and rose up,
and went down to Egypt,
and stood before Joseph.

.Ge 43:16
And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them,
he said to the ruler
of his house, Bring [these] men home,
and slay, and make ready;
for [these] men shall dine with me at
noon.

.Ge 43:17
And the man did as Joseph bade; and
the man brought the men
into Joseph's house.

.Ge 43:18
And the men were afraid, because they
were brought into Joseph's
house; and they said, Because of the
money that was returned
in our sacks at the first time are we
brought in; that he may
seek occasion against us, and fall upon
us, and take us for
bondmen, and our asses.

.Ge 43:19
And they came near to the steward of
Joseph's house, and they
communed with him at the door of the
house,

.Ge 43:20
And said, O sir, we came indeed down
at the first time to buy
food:

.Ge 43:21
And it came to pass, when we came to
the inn, that we opened
our sacks, and, behold, [every] man's
money [was] in the mouth
of his sack, our money in full weight:
and we have brought it
again in our hand.

.Ge 43:22
And other money have we brought down
in our hands to buy food:
we cannot tell who put our money in
our sacks.

.Ge 43:23
And he said, Peace [be] to you, fear
not: your God, and the
God of your father, hath given you
treasure in your sacks:
I had your money. And he brought Simeon
out unto them.

.Ge 43:24
And the man brought the men into
Joseph's house, and gave
[them] water, and they washed their
feet; and he gave their
asses provender.

.Ge 43:25
And they made ready the present against
Joseph came at noon:
for they heard that they should eat
bread there.

.Ge 43:26
And when Joseph came home, they brought
him the present which
[was] in their hand into the house,
and bowed themselves to
him to the earth.

.Ge 43:27
And he asked them of [their] welfare,
and said, [Is] your
father well, the old man of whom ye
spake? [Is] he yet alive?

.Ge 43:28
And they answered, Thy servant our
father [is] in good health,
he [is] yet alive. And they bowed down
their heads, and made
obeisance.

.Ge 43:29
And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his
brother Benjamin,
his mother's son, and said, [Is] this
your younger brother,
of whom ye spake unto me? And he said,
God be gracious unto
thee, my son.

.Ge 43:30
And Joseph made haste; for his bowels
did yearn upon his
brother: and he sought [where] to weep;
and he entered into
[his] chamber, and wept there.

.Ge 43:31
And he washed his face, and went out,
and refrained himself,
and said, Set on bread.

.Ge 43:32
And they set on for him by himself,
and for them by themselves,
and for the Egyptians, which did eat
with him, by themselves:
because the Egyptians might not eat
bread with the Hebrews;
for that [is] an abomination unto the
Egyptians.

.Ge 43:33
And they sat before him, the firstborn
according to his
birthright, and the youngest according
to his youth: and the
men marvelled one at another.

.Ge 43:34
And he took [and sent] messes unto them
from before him: but
Benjamin's mess was five times so much
as any of theirs. And
they drank, and were merry with him.

.Ge 44:1
And he commanded the steward of his
house, saying, Fill the
men's sacks [with] food, as much as
they can carry, and put
every man's money in his sack's mouth.

.Ge 44:2
And put my cup, the silver cup, in the
sack's mouth of the
youngest, and his corn money. And he
did according to the word
that Joseph had spoken.

.Ge 44:3
As soon as the morning was light,
the men were sent away,
they and their asses.

.Ge 44:4
[And] when they were gone out of the
city, [and] not [yet] far
off, Joseph said unto his steward, Up,
follow after the men;
and when thou dost overtake them,
say unto them, Wherefore
have ye rewarded evil for good?

.Ge 44:5
[Is] not this [it] in which my lord
drinketh, and whereby
indeed he divineth? ye have done evil
in so doing.

.Ge 44:6
And he overtook them, and he spake unto
them these same words.

.Ge 44:7
And they said unto him, Wherefore saith
my lord these words? God
forbid that thy servants should do
according to this thing:

.Ge 44:8
Behold, the money, which we found in
our sacks' mouths, we
brought again unto thee out of the land
of Canaan: how then
should we steal out of thy lord's house
silver or gold?

.Ge 44:9
With whomsoever of thy servants it be
found, both let him die,
and we also will be my lord's bondmen.

.Ge 44:10
And he said, Now also [let] it [be]
according unto your words:
he with whom it is found shall be my
servant; and ye shall be
blameless.

.Ge 44:11
Then they speedily took down every man
his sack to the ground,
and opened every man his sack.

.Ge 44:12
And he searched, [and] began at the
eldest, and left at the
youngest: and the cup was found in
Benjamin's sack.

.Ge 44:13
Then they rent their clothes, and laded
every man his ass,
and returned to the city.

.Ge 44:14
And Judah and his brethren came to
Joseph's house; for he
[was] yet there: and they fell before
him on the ground.

.Ge 44:15
And Joseph said unto them, What deed
[is] this that ye have
done? wot ye not that such a man as I
can certainly divine?

.Ge 44:16
And Judah said, What shall we say unto
my lord? what shall we
speak? or how shall we clear
ourselves? God hath found out the
iniquity of thy servants: behold, we
[are] my lord's servants,
both we, and [he] also with whom the
cup is found.

.Ge 44:17
And he said, God forbid that I should
do so: [but] the man in
whose hand the cup is found, he shall
be my servant; and as
for you, get you up in peace unto your
father.

.Ge 44:18
Then Judah came near unto him, and
said, Oh my lord, let
thy servant, I pray thee, speak a word
in my lord's ears,
and let not thine anger burn against
thy servant: for thou
[art] even as Pharaoh.

.Ge 44:19
My lord asked his servants, saying,
Have ye a father, or a
brother?

.Ge 44:20
And we said unto my lord, We have a
father, an old man, and a
child of his old age, a little one;
and his brother is dead,
and he alone is left of his mother,
and his father loveth him.

.Ge 44:21
And thou saidst unto thy servants,
Bring him down unto me,
that I may set mine eyes upon him.

.Ge 44:22
And we said unto my lord, The lad
cannot leave his father:
for [if] he should leave his father,
[his father] would die.

.Ge 44:23
And thou saidst unto thy servants,
Except your youngest brother
come down with you, ye shall see my
face no more.

.Ge 44:24
And it came to pass when we came up
unto thy servant my father,
we told him the words of my lord.

.Ge 44:25
And our father said, Go again, [and]
buy us a little food.

.Ge 44:26
And we said, We cannot go down: if our
youngest brother be with
us, then will we go down: for we may
not see the man's face,
except our youngest brother [be] with
us.

.Ge 44:27
And thy servant my father said unto us,
Ye know that my wife
bare me two [sons]:

.Ge 44:28
And the one went out from me, and I
said, Surely he is torn
in pieces; and I saw him not since:

.Ge 44:29
And if ye take this also from me,
and mischief befall him,
ye shall bring down my gray hairs with
sorrow to the grave.

.Ge 44:30
Now therefore when I come to thy
servant my father, and the
lad [be] not with us; seeing that his
life is bound up in the
lad's life;

.Ge 44:31
It shall come to pass, when he seeth
that the lad [is] not [with
us], that he will die: and thy servants
shall bring down the
gray hairs of thy servant our father
with sorrow to the grave.

.Ge 44:32
For thy servant became surety for the
lad unto my father,
saying, If I bring him not unto thee,
then I shall bear the
blame to my father for ever.

.Ge 44:33
Now therefore, I pray thee, let thy
servant abide instead of
the lad a bondman to my lord; and let
the lad go up with his
brethren.

.Ge 44:34
For how shall I go up to my father,
and the lad [be] not with
me? lest peradventure I see the evil
that shall come on my
father.

.Ge 45:1
Then Joseph could not refrain himself
before all them that
stood by him; and he cried, Cause every
man to go out from
me. And there stood no man with him,
while Joseph made himself
known unto his brethren.

.Ge 45:2
And he wept aloud: and the Egyptians
and the house of Pharaoh
heard.

.Ge 45:3
And Joseph said unto his brethren, I
[am] Joseph; doth my
father yet live? And his brethren could
not answer him; for
they were troubled at his presence.

.Ge 45:4
And Joseph said unto his brethren,
Come near to me, I pray
you. And they came near. And he said,
I [am] Joseph your
brother, whom ye sold into Egypt.

.Ge 45:5
Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry
with yourselves, that
ye sold me hither: for God did send me
before you to preserve
life.

.Ge 45:6
For these two years [hath] the famine
[been] in the land:
and yet [there are] five years, in the
which [there shall]
neither [be] earing nor harvest.

.Ge 45:7
And God sent me before you to preserve
you a posterity in the
earth, and to save your lives by a
great deliverance.

.Ge 45:8
So now [it was] not you [that] sent me
hither, but God: and he
hath made me a father to Pharaoh,
and lord of all his house,
and a ruler throughout all the land of
Egypt.

.Ge 45:9
Haste ye, and go up to my father,
and say unto him, Thus saith
thy son Joseph, God hath made me lord
of all Egypt: come down
unto me, tarry not:

.Ge 45:10
And thou shalt dwell in the land of
Goshen, and thou shalt
be near unto me, thou, and thy
children, and thy children's
children, and thy flocks, and thy
herds, and all that thou
hast:

.Ge 45:11
And there will I nourish thee; for yet
[there are] five years
of famine; lest thou, and thy
household, and all that thou hast,
come to poverty.

.Ge 45:12
And, behold, your eyes see, and the
eyes of my brother Benjamin,
that [it is] my mouth that speaketh
unto you.

.Ge 45:13
And ye shall tell my father of all my
glory in Egypt, and of
all that ye have seen; and ye shall
haste and bring down my
father hither.

.Ge 45:14
And he fell upon his brother Benjamin's
neck, and wept; and
Benjamin wept upon his neck.

.Ge 45:15
Moreover he kissed all his brethren,
and wept upon them:
and after that his brethren talked with
him.

.Ge 45:16
And the fame thereof was heard in
Pharaoh's house, saying,
Joseph's brethren are come: and it
pleased Pharaoh well,
and his servants.

.Ge 45:17
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Say unto
thy brethren, This do
ye; lade your beasts, and go, get you
unto the land of Canaan;

.Ge 45:18
And take your father and your
households, and come unto me:
and I will give you the good of the
land of Egypt, and ye
shall eat the fat of the land.

.Ge 45:19
Now thou art commanded, this do ye;
take you wagons out of
the land of Egypt for your little ones,
and for your wives,
and bring your father, and come.

.Ge 45:20
Also regard not your stuff; for the
good of all the land of
Egypt [is] yours.

.Ge 45:21
And the children of Israel did so:
and Joseph gave them wagons,
according to the commandment of
Pharaoh, and gave them provision
for the way.

.Ge 45:22
To all of them he gave each man changes
of raiment; but to
Benjamin he gave three hundred [pieces]
of silver, and five
changes of raiment.

.Ge 45:23
And to his father he sent after this
[manner]; ten asses laden
with the good things of Egypt, and ten
she asses laden with
corn and bread and meat for his father
by the way.

.Ge 45:24
So he sent his brethren away, and they
departed: and he said
unto them, See that ye fall not out by
the way.

.Ge 45:25
And they went up out of Egypt, and came
into the land of Canaan
unto Jacob their father,

.Ge 45:26
And told him, saying, Joseph [is]
yet alive, and he [is]
governor over all the land of
Egypt. And Jacob's heart fainted,
for he believed them not.

.Ge 45:27
And they told him all the words of
Joseph, which he had said
unto them: and when he saw the wagons
which Joseph had sent
to carry him, the spirit of Jacob their
father revived:

.Ge 45:28
And Israel said, [It is] enough; Joseph
my son [is] yet alive:
I will go and see him before I die.

.Ge 46:1
And Israel took his journey with all
that he had, and came to
Beersheba, and offered sacrifices unto
the God of his father
Isaac.

.Ge 46:2
And God spake unto Israel in the
visions of the night, and said,
Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here [am]
I.

.Ge 46:3
And he said, I [am] God, the God of
thy father: fear not to go
down into Egypt; for I will there make
of thee a great nation:

.Ge 46:4
I will go down with thee into Egypt;
and I will also surely
bring thee up [again]: and Joseph shall
put his hand upon
thine eyes.

.Ge 46:5
And Jacob rose up from Beersheba:
and the sons of Israel carried
Jacob their father, and their little
ones, and their wives,
in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent
to carry him.

.Ge 46:6
And they took their cattle, and their
goods, which they had
gotten in the land of Canaan, and came
into Egypt, Jacob,
and all his seed with him:

.Ge 46:7
His sons, and his sons' sons with him,
his daughters, and his
sons' daughters, and all his seed
brought he with him into
Egypt.

.Ge 46:8
And these [are] the names of the
children of Israel, which
came into Egypt, Jacob and his sons:
Reuben, Jacob's firstborn.

.Ge 46:9
And the sons of Reuben; Hanoch, and
Phallu, and Hezron, and
Carmi.

.Ge 46:10
And the sons of Simeon; Jemuel, and
Jamin, and Ohad, and Jachin,
and Zohar, and Shaul the son of a
Canaanitish woman.

.Ge 46:11
And the sons of Levi; Gershon, Kohath,
and Merari.

.Ge 46:12
And the sons of Judah; Er, and Onan,
and Shelah, and Pharez,
and Zerah: but Er and Onan died in the
land of Canaan. And
the sons of Pharez were Hezron and
Hamul.

.Ge 46:13
And the sons of Issachar; Tola, and
Phuvah, and Job, and
Shimron.

.Ge 46:14
And the sons of Zebulun; Sered, and
Elon, and Jahleel.

.Ge 46:15
These [be] the sons of Leah, which she
bare unto Jacob in
Padanaram, with his daughter Dinah:
all the souls of his sons
and his daughters [were] thirty and
three.

.Ge 46:16
And the sons of Gad; Ziphion, and
Haggi, Shuni, and Ezbon,
Eri, and Arodi, and Areli.

.Ge 46:17
And the sons of Asher; Jimnah, and
Ishuah, and Isui, and
Beriah, and Serah their sister: and
the sons of Beriah; Heber,
and Malchiel.

.Ge 46:18
These [are] the sons of Zilpah, whom
Laban gave to Leah his
daughter, and these she bare unto
Jacob, [even] sixteen souls.

.Ge 46:19
The sons of Rachel Jacob's wife;
Joseph, and Benjamin.

.Ge 46:20
And unto Joseph in the land of Egypt
were born Manasseh and
Ephraim, which Asenath the daughter of
Potipherah priest of
On bare unto him.

.Ge 46:21
And the sons of Benjamin [were] Belah,
and Becher, and Ashbel,
Gera, and Naaman, Ehi, and Rosh,
Muppim, and Huppim, and Ard.

.Ge 46:22
These [are] the sons of Rachel, which
were born to Jacob:
all the souls [were] fourteen.

.Ge 46:23
And the sons of Dan; Hushim.

.Ge 46:24
And the sons of Naphtali; Jahzeel,
and Guni, and Jezer, and
Shillem.

.Ge 46:25
These [are] the sons of Bilhah, which
Laban gave unto Rachel
his daughter, and she bare these unto
Jacob: all the souls
[were] seven.

.Ge 46:26
All the souls that came with Jacob into
Egypt, which came out
of his loins, besides Jacob's sons'
wives, all the souls [were]
threescore and six;

.Ge 46:27
And the sons of Joseph, which were born
him in Egypt, [were]
two souls: all the souls of the house
of Jacob, which came
into Egypt, [were] threescore and ten.

.Ge 46:28
And he sent Judah before him unto
Joseph, to direct his face
unto Goshen; and they came into the
land of Goshen.

.Ge 46:29
And Joseph made ready his chariot,
and went up to meet Israel
his father, to Goshen, and presented
himself unto him; and he
fell on his neck, and wept on his neck
a good while.

.Ge 46:30
And Israel said unto Joseph, Now let
me die, since I have seen
thy face, because thou [art] yet
alive.

.Ge 46:31
And Joseph said unto his brethren,
and unto his father's house,
I will go up, and shew Pharaoh, and
say unto him, My brethren,
and my father's house, which [were]
in the land of Canaan,
are come unto me;

.Ge 46:32
And the men [are] shepherds, for their
trade hath been to feed
cattle; and they have brought their
flocks, and their herds,
and all that they have.

.Ge 46:33
And it shall come to pass, when Pharaoh
shall call you, and
shall say, What [is] your occupation?

.Ge 46:34
That ye shall say, Thy servants' trade
hath been about cattle
from our youth even until now, both we,
[and] also our fathers:
that ye may dwell in the land of
Goshen; for every shepherd
[is] an abomination unto the
Egyptians.

.Ge 47:1
Then Joseph came and told Pharaoh,
and said, My father and
my brethren, and their flocks, and
their herds, and all that
they have, are come out of the land of
Canaan; and, behold,
they [are] in the land of Goshen.

.Ge 47:2
And he took some of his brethren,
[even] five men, and presented
them unto Pharaoh.

.Ge 47:3
And Pharaoh said unto his brethren,
What [is] your
occupation? And they said unto Pharaoh,
Thy servants [are]
shepherds, both we, [and] also our
fathers.

.Ge 47:4
They said moreover unto Pharaoh, For
to sojourn in the land
are we come; for thy servants have no
pasture for their flocks;
for the famine [is] sore in the land
of Canaan: now therefore,
we pray thee, let thy servants dwell
in the land of Goshen.

.Ge 47:5
And Pharaoh spake unto Joseph, saying,
Thy father and thy
brethren are come unto thee:

.Ge 47:6
The land of Egypt [is] before thee;
in the best of the land
make thy father and brethren to dwell;
in the land of Goshen
let them dwell: and if thou knowest
[any] men of activity
among them, then make them rulers over
my cattle.

.Ge 47:7
And Joseph brought in Jacob his father,
and set him before
Pharaoh: and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.

.Ge 47:8
And Pharaoh said unto Jacob, How old
[art] thou?

.Ge 47:9
And Jacob said unto Pharaoh, The days
of the years of my
pilgrimage [are] an hundred and thirty
years: few and evil have
the days of the years of my life been,
and have not attained
unto the days of the years of the life
of my fathers in the
days of their pilgrimage.

.Ge 47:10
And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went
out from before Pharaoh.

.Ge 47:11
And Joseph placed his father and his
brethren, and gave them
a possession in the land of Egypt,
in the best of the land,
in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had
commanded.

.Ge 47:12
And Joseph nourished his father, and
his brethren, and all his
father's household, with bread,
according to [their] families.

.Ge 47:13
And [there was] no bread in all the
land; for the famine [was]
very sore, so that the land of Egypt
and [all] the land of
Canaan fainted by reason of the
famine.

.Ge 47:14
And Joseph gathered up all the money
that was found in the
land of Egypt, and in the land of
Canaan, for the corn which
they bought: and Joseph brought the
money into Pharaoh's house.

.Ge 47:15
And when money failed in the land of
Egypt, and in the land
of Canaan, all the Egyptians came unto
Joseph, and said, Give
us bread: for why should we die in thy
presence? for the money
faileth.

.Ge 47:16
And Joseph said, Give your cattle;
and I will give you for
your cattle, if money fail.

.Ge 47:17
And they brought their cattle unto
Joseph: and Joseph gave
them bread [in exchange] for horses,
and for the flocks,
and for the cattle of the herds, and
for the asses: and he
fed them with bread for all their
cattle for that year.

.Ge 47:18
When that year was ended, they came
unto him the second year,
and said unto him, We will not hide
[it] from my lord, how
that our money is spent; my lord also
hath our herds of cattle;
there is not ought left in the sight
of my lord, but our bodies,
and our lands:

.Ge 47:19
Wherefore shall we die before thine
eyes, both we and our
land? buy us and our land for bread,
and we and our land will
be servants unto Pharaoh: and give [us]
seed, that we may live,
and not die, that the land be not
desolate.

.Ge 47:20
And Joseph bought all the land of Egypt
for Pharaoh; for
the Egyptians sold every man his field,
because the famine
prevailed over them: so the land became
Pharaoh's.

.Ge 47:21
And as for the people, he removed them
to cities from [one]
end of the borders of Egypt even to the
[other] end thereof.

.Ge 47:22
Only the land of the priests bought he
not; for the priests had
a portion [assigned them] of Pharaoh,
and did eat their portion
which Pharaoh gave them: wherefore they
sold not their lands.

.Ge 47:23
Then Joseph said unto the people,
Behold, I have bought you
this day and your land for Pharaoh: lo,
[here is] seed for you,
and ye shall sow the land.

.Ge 47:24
And it shall come to pass in the
increase, that ye shall give
the fifth [part] unto Pharaoh, and four
parts shall be your
own, for seed of the field, and for
your food, and for them
of your households, and for food for
your little ones.

.Ge 47:25
And they said, Thou hast saved our
lives: let us find grace
in the sight of my lord, and we will
be Pharaoh's servants.

.Ge 47:26
And Joseph made it a law over the land
of Egypt unto this day,
[that] Pharaoh should have the fifth
[part]; except the land
of the priests only, [which] became
not Pharaoh's.

.Ge 47:27
And Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt,
in the country of Goshen;
and they had possessions therein,
and grew, and multiplied
exceedingly.

.Ge 47:28
And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt
seventeen years: so the
whole age of Jacob was an hundred forty
and seven years.

.Ge 47:29
And the time drew nigh that Israel must
die: and he called his
son Joseph, and said unto him, If now
I have found grace in
thy sight, put, I pray thee, thy hand
under my thigh, and deal
kindly and truly with me; bury me not,
I pray thee, in Egypt:

.Ge 47:30
But I will lie with my fathers, and
thou shalt carry me out
of Egypt, and bury me in their
buryingplace. And he said,
I will do as thou hast said.

.Ge 47:31
And he said, Swear unto me. And he
sware unto him. And Israel
bowed himself upon the bed's head.

.Ge 48:1
And it came to pass after these things,
that [one] told Joseph,
Behold, thy father [is] sick: and he
took with him his two sons,
Manasseh and Ephraim.

.Ge 48:2
And [one] told Jacob, and said, Behold,
thy son Joseph cometh
unto thee: and Israel strengthened
himself, and sat upon the
bed.

.Ge 48:3
And Jacob said unto Joseph, God
Almighty appeared unto me at
Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed
me,

.Ge 48:4
And said unto me, Behold, I will make
thee fruitful, and
multiply thee, and I will make of thee
a multitude of people;
and will give this land to thy seed
after thee [for] an
everlasting possession.

.Ge 48:5
And now thy two sons, Ephraim and
Manasseh, which were born unto
thee in the land of Egypt before I came
unto thee into Egypt,
[are] mine; as Reuben and Simeon,
they shall be mine.

.Ge 48:6
And thy issue, which thou begettest
after them, shall be thine,
[and] shall be called after the name
of their brethren in
their inheritance.

.Ge 48:7
And as for me, when I came from Padan,
Rachel died by me in the
land of Canaan in the way, when yet
[there was] but a little
way to come unto Ephrath: and I buried
her there in the way
of Ephrath; the same [is] Bethlehem.

.Ge 48:8
And Israel beheld Joseph's sons, and
said, Who [are] these?

.Ge 48:9
And Joseph said unto his father, They
[are] my sons, whom
God hath given me in this [place]. And
he said, Bring them,
I pray thee, unto me, and I will bless
them.

.Ge 48:10
Now the eyes of Israel were dim for
age, [so that] he could
not see. And he brought them near unto
him; and he kissed them,
and embraced them.

.Ge 48:11
And Israel said unto Joseph, I had not
thought to see thy face:
and, lo, God hath shewed me also thy
seed.

.Ge 48:12
And Joseph brought them out from
between his knees, and he
bowed himself with his face to the
earth.

.Ge 48:13
And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in
his right hand toward
Israel's left hand, and Manasseh in
his left hand toward
Israel's right hand, and brought [them]
near unto him.

.Ge 48:14
And Israel stretched out his right
hand, and laid [it] upon
Ephraim's head, who [was] the younger,
and his left hand upon
Manasseh's head, guiding his hands
wittingly; for Manasseh
[was] the firstborn.

.Ge 48:15
And he blessed Joseph, and said, God,
before whom my fathers
Abraham and Isaac did walk, the God
which fed me all my life
long unto this day,

.Ge 48:16
The Angel which redeemed me from all
evil, bless the lads;
and let my name be named on them,
and the name of my fathers
Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow
into a multitude in the
midst of the earth.

.Ge 48:17
And when Joseph saw that his father
laid his right hand upon the
head of Ephraim, it displeased him:
and he held up his father's
hand, to remove it from Ephraim's head
unto Manasseh's head.

.Ge 48:18
And Joseph said unto his father, Not
so, my father: for this
[is] the firstborn; put thy right hand
upon his head.

.Ge 48:19
And his father refused, and said,
I know [it], my son, I know
[it]: he also shall become a people,
and he also shall be
great: but truly his younger brother
shall be greater than he,
and his seed shall become a multitude
of nations.

.Ge 48:20
And he blessed them that day, saying,
In thee shall Israel
bless, saying, God make thee as Ephraim
and as Manasseh:
and he set Ephraim before Manasseh.

.Ge 48:21
And Israel said unto Joseph, Behold,
I die: but God shall be
with you, and bring you again unto the
land of your fathers.

.Ge 48:22
Moreover I have given to thee one
portion above thy brethren,
which I took out of the hand of the
Amorite with my sword and
with my bow.

.Ge 49:1
And Jacob called unto his sons, and
said, Gather yourselves
together, that I may tell you [that]
which shall befall you
in the last days.

.Ge 49:2
Gather yourselves together, and hear,
ye sons of Jacob; and
hearken unto Israel your father.

.Ge 49:3
Reuben, thou [art] my firstborn, my
might, and the beginning
of my strength, the excellency of
dignity, and the excellency
of power:

.Ge 49:4
Unstable as water, thou shalt not
excel; because thou wentest
up to thy father's bed; then defiledst
thou [it]: he went up
to my couch.

.Ge 49:5
Simeon and Levi [are] brethren;
instruments of cruelty [are in]
their habitations.

.Ge 49:6
O my soul, come not thou into their
secret; unto their assembly,
mine honour, be not thou united: for
in their anger they slew
a man, and in their selfwill they
digged down a wall.

.Ge 49:7
Cursed [be] their anger, for [it was]
fierce; and their wrath,
for it was cruel: I will divide them
in Jacob, and scatter
them in Israel.

.Ge 49:8
Judah, thou [art he] whom thy brethren
shall praise: thy hand
[shall be] in the neck of thine
enemies; thy father's children
shall bow down before thee.

.Ge 49:9
Judah [is] a lion's whelp: from the
prey, my son, thou art gone
up: he stooped down, he couched as a
lion, and as an old lion;
who shall rouse him up?

.Ge 49:10
The sceptre shall not depart from
Judah, nor a lawgiver from
between his feet, until Shiloh come;
and unto him [shall]
the gathering of the people [be].

.Ge 49:11
Binding his foal unto the vine, and
his ass's colt unto the
choice vine; he washed his garments in
wine, and his clothes
in the blood of grapes:

.Ge 49:12
His eyes [shall be] red with wine,
and his teeth white with
milk.

.Ge 49:13
Zebulun shall dwell at the haven of
the sea; and he [shall be]
for an haven of ships; and his border
[shall be] unto Zidon.

.Ge 49:14
Issachar [is] a strong ass couching
down between two burdens:

.Ge 49:15
And he saw that rest [was] good, and
the land that [it was]
pleasant; and bowed his shoulder to
bear, and became a servant
unto tribute.

.Ge 49:16
Dan shall judge his people, as one of
the tribes of Israel.

.Ge 49:17
Dan shall be a serpent by the way,
an adder in the path, that
biteth the horse heels, so that his
rider shall fall backward.

.Ge 49:18
I have waited for thy salvation,
O LORD.

.Ge 49:19
Gad, a troop shall overcome him: but
he shall overcome at the
last.

.Ge 49:20
Out of Asher his bread [shall be] fat,
and he shall yield
royal dainties.

.Ge 49:21
Naphtali [is] a hind let loose: he
giveth goodly words.

.Ge 49:22
Joseph [is] a fruitful bough, [even]
a fruitful bough by a well;
[whose] branches run over the wall:

.Ge 49:23
The archers have sorely grieved him,
and shot [at him], and
hated him:

.Ge 49:24
But his bow abode in strength, and the
arms of his hands
were made strong by the hands of the
mighty [God] of Jacob;
(from thence [is] the shepherd, the
stone of Israel:)

.Ge 49:25
[Even] by the God of thy father, who
shall help thee; and by
the Almighty, who shall bless thee with
blessings of heaven
above, blessings of the deep that lieth
under, blessings of
the breasts, and of the womb:

.Ge 49:26
The blessings of thy father have
prevailed above the blessings
of my progenitors unto the utmost bound
of the everlasting
hills: they shall be on the head of
Joseph, and on the crown
of the head of him that was separate
from his brethren.

.Ge 49:27
Benjamin shall ravin [as] a wolf:
in the morning he shall
devour the prey, and at night he shall
divide the spoil.

.Ge 49:28
All these [are] the twelve tribes of
Israel: and this [is it]
that their father spake unto them,
and blessed them; every
one according to his blessing he
blessed them.

.Ge 49:29
And he charged them, and said unto
them, I am to be gathered
unto my people: bury me with my fathers
in the cave that [is]
in the field of Ephron the Hittite,

.Ge 49:30
In the cave that [is] in the field of
Machpelah, which [is]
before Mamre, in the land of Canaan,
which Abraham bought
with the field of Ephron the Hittite
for a possession of a
buryingplace.

.Ge 49:31
There they buried Abraham and Sarah
his wife; there they buried
Isaac and Rebekah his wife; and there
I buried Leah.

.Ge 49:32
The purchase of the field and of the
cave that [is] therein
[was] from the children of Heth.

.Ge 49:33
And when Jacob had made an end of
commanding his sons, he
gathered up his feet into the bed,
and yielded up the ghost,
and was gathered unto his people.

.Ge 50:1
And Joseph fell upon his father's face,
and wept upon him,
and kissed him.

.Ge 50:2
And Joseph commanded his servants the
physicians to embalm
his father: and the physicians embalmed
Israel.

.Ge 50:3
And forty days were fulfilled for him;
for so are fulfilled
the days of those which are embalmed:
and the Egyptians mourned
for him threescore and ten days.

.Ge 50:4
And when the days of his mourning were
past, Joseph spake unto
the house of Pharaoh, saying, If now
I have found grace in
your eyes, speak, I pray you, in the
ears of Pharaoh, saying,

.Ge 50:5
My father made me swear, saying, Lo,
I die: in my grave which
I have digged for me in the land of
Canaan, there shalt thou
bury me. Now therefore let me go up,
I pray thee, and bury my
father, and I will come again.

.Ge 50:6
And Pharaoh said, Go up, and bury thy
father, according as he
made thee swear.

.Ge 50:7
And Joseph went up to bury his father:
and with him went up
all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders
of his house, and all
the elders of the land of Egypt,

.Ge 50:8
And all the house of Joseph, and his
brethren, and his father's
house: only their little ones, and
their flocks, and their
herds, they left in the land of
Goshen.

.Ge 50:9
And there went up with him both
chariots and horsemen: and it
was a very great company.

.Ge 50:10
And they came to the threshingfloor of
Atad, which [is] beyond
Jordan, and there they mourned with a
great and very sore
lamentation: and he made a mourning
for his father seven days.

.Ge 50:11
And when the inhabitants of the land,
the Canaanites, saw the
mourning in the floor of Atad, they
said, This [is] a grievous
mourning to the Egyptians: wherefore
the name of it was called
Abelmizraim, which [is] beyond Jordan.

.Ge 50:12
And his sons did unto him according as
he commanded them:

.Ge 50:13
For his sons carried him into the land
of Canaan, and buried
him in the cave of the field of
Machpelah, which Abraham bought
with the field for a possession of a
buryingplace of Ephron
the Hittite, before Mamre.

.Ge 50:14
And Joseph returned into Egypt, he,
and his brethren, and all
that went up with him to bury his
father, after he had buried
his father.

.Ge 50:15
And when Joseph's brethren saw that
their father was dead,
they said, Joseph will peradventure
hate us, and will certainly
requite us all the evil which we did
unto him.

.Ge 50:16
And they sent a messenger unto Joseph,
saying, Thy father did
command before he died, saying,

.Ge 50:17
So shall ye say unto Joseph, Forgive,
I pray thee now, the
trespass of thy brethren, and their
sin; for they did unto
thee evil: and now, we pray thee,
forgive the trespass of the
servants of the God of thy father. And
Joseph wept when they
spake unto him.

.Ge 50:18
And his brethren also went and fell
down before his face;
and they said, Behold, we [be] thy
servants.

.Ge 50:19
And Joseph said unto them, Fear not:
for [am] I in the place
of God?

.Ge 50:20
But as for you, ye thought evil against
me; [but] God meant
it unto good, to bring to pass, as
[it is] this day, to save
much people alive.

.Ge 50:21
Now therefore fear ye not: I will
nourish you, and your little
ones. And he comforted them, and spake
kindly unto them.

.Ge 50:22
And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he, and his
father's house: and
Joseph lived an hundred and ten years.

.Ge 50:23
And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of
the third [generation]:
the children also of Machir the son of
Manasseh were brought
up upon Joseph's knees.

.Ge 50:24
And Joseph said unto his brethren,
I die: and God will surely
visit you, and bring you out of this
land unto the land which
he sware to Abraham, to Isaac, and to
Jacob.

.Ge 50:25
And Joseph took an oath of the children
of Israel, saying,
God will surely visit you, and ye shall
carry up my bones from
hence.

.Ge 50:26
So Joseph died, [being] an hundred and
ten years old: and they
embalmed him, and he was put in a
coffin in Egypt.

.Ex 1:1
Now these [are] the names of the
children of Israel, which
came into Egypt; every man and his
household came with Jacob.

.Ex 1:2
Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,

.Ex 1:3
Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,

.Ex 1:4
Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.

.Ex 1:5
And all the souls that came out of the
loins of Jacob were
seventy souls: for Joseph was in Egypt
[already].

.Ex 1:6
And Joseph died, and all his brethren,
and all that generation.

.Ex 1:7
And the children of Israel were
fruitful, and increased
abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed
exceeding mighty; and
the land was filled with them.

.Ex 1:8
Now there arose up a new king over
Egypt, which knew not
Joseph.

.Ex 1:9
And he said unto his people, Behold,
the people of the children
of Israel [are] more and mightier than
we:

.Ex 1:10
Come on, let us deal wisely with them;
lest they multiply,
and it come to pass, that, when there
falleth out any war,
they join also unto our enemies, and
fight against us, and
[so] get them up out of the land.

.Ex 1:11
Therefore they did set over them
taskmasters to afflict them
with their burdens. And they built for
Pharaoh treasure cities,
Pithom and Raamses.

.Ex 1:12
But the more they afflicted them,
the more they multiplied and
grew. And they were grieved because of
the children of Israel.

.Ex 1:13
And the Egyptians made the children of
Israel to serve with
rigour:

.Ex 1:14
And they made their lives bitter with
hard bondage, in morter,
and in brick, and in all manner of
service in the field: all
their service, wherein they made them
serve, [was] with rigour.

.Ex 1:15
And the king of Egypt spake to the
Hebrew midwives, of which the
name of the one [was] Shiphrah, and
the name of the other Puah:

.Ex 1:16
And he said, When ye do the office of
a midwife to the Hebrew
women, and see [them] upon the stools;
if it [be] a son, then ye
shall kill him: but if it [be] a
daughter, then she shall live.

.Ex 1:17
But the midwives feared God, and did
not as the king of Egypt
commanded them, but saved the men
children alive.

.Ex 1:18
And the king of Egypt called for the
midwives, and said unto
them, Why have ye done this thing,
and have saved the men
children alive?

.Ex 1:19
And the midwives said unto Pharaoh,
Because the Hebrew women
[are] not as the Egyptian women; for
they [are] lively, and
are delivered ere the midwives come in
unto them.

.Ex 1:20
Therefore God dealt well with the
midwives: and the people
multiplied, and waxed very mighty.

.Ex 1:21
And it came to pass, because the
midwives feared God, that he
made them houses.

.Ex 1:22
And Pharaoh charged all his people,
saying, Every son that
is born ye shall cast into the river,
and every daughter ye
shall save alive.

.Ex 2:1
And there went a man of the house of
Levi, and took [to wife]
a daughter of Levi.

.Ex 2:2
And the woman conceived, and bare a
son: and when she saw him
that he [was a] goodly [child], she
hid him three months.

.Ex 2:3
And when she could not longer hide him,
she took for him an
ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with
slime and with pitch,
and put the child therein; and she laid
[it] in the flags by
the river's brink.

.Ex 2:4
And his sister stood afar off, to wit
what would be done to
him.

.Ex 2:5
And the daughter of Pharaoh came down
to wash [herself] at
the river; and her maidens walked along
by the river's side;
and when she saw the ark among the
flags, she sent her maid
to fetch it.

.Ex 2:6
And when she had opened [it], she saw
the child: and, behold,
the babe wept. And she had compassion
on him, and said, This
[is one] of the Hebrews' children.

.Ex 2:7
Then said his sister to Pharaoh's
daughter, Shall I go and
call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew
women, that she may nurse
the child for thee?

.Ex 2:8
And Pharaoh's daughter said to her,
Go. And the maid went and
called the child's mother.

.Ex 2:9
And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her,
Take this child away,
and nurse it for me, and I will give
[thee] thy wages. And
the woman took the child, and nursed
it.

.Ex 2:10
And the child grew, and she brought
him unto Pharaoh's daughter,
and he became her son. And she called
his name Moses: and she
said, Because I drew him out of the
water.

.Ex 2:11
And it came to pass in those days,
when Moses was grown, that
he went out unto his brethren, and
looked on their burdens: and
he spied an Egyptian smiting an Hebrew,
one of his brethren.

.Ex 2:12
And he looked this way and that way,
and when he saw that [there
was] no man, he slew the Egyptian,
and hid him in the sand.

.Ex 2:13
And when he went out the second day,
behold, two men of the
Hebrews strove together: and he said
to him that did the wrong,
Wherefore smitest thou thy fellow?

.Ex 2:14
And he said, Who made thee a prince
and a judge over
us? intendest thou to kill me, as thou
killedst the
Egyptian? And Moses feared, and said,
Surely this thing is
known.

.Ex 2:15
Now when Pharaoh heard this thing,
he sought to slay Moses. But
Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh,
and dwelt in the land of
Midian: and he sat down by a well.

.Ex 2:16
Now the priest of Midian had seven
daughters: and they came and
drew [water], and filled the troughs
to water their father's
flock.

.Ex 2:17
And the shepherds came and drove them
away: but Moses stood
up and helped them, and watered their
flock.

.Ex 2:18
And when they came to Reuel their
father, he said, How [is it
that] ye are come so soon to day?

.Ex 2:19
And they said, An Egyptian delivered
us out of the hand of the
shepherds, and also drew [water] enough
for us, and watered
the flock.

.Ex 2:20
And he said unto his daughters, And
where [is] he? why [is] it
[that] ye have left the man? call him,
that he may eat bread.

.Ex 2:21
And Moses was content to dwell with
the man: and he gave Moses
Zipporah his daughter.

.Ex 2:22
And she bare [him] a son, and he called
his name Gershom:
for he said, I have been a stranger in
a strange land.

.Ex 2:23
And it came to pass in process of time,
that the king of
Egypt died: and the children of Israel
sighed by reason of
the bondage, and they cried, and their
cry came up unto God
by reason of the bondage.

.Ex 2:24
And God heard their groaning, and God
remembered his covenant
with Abraham, with Isaac, and with
Jacob.

.Ex 2:25
And God looked upon the children of
Israel, and God had respect
unto [them].

.Ex 3:1
Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his
father in law, the priest
of Midian: and he led the flock to the
backside of the desert,
and came to the mountain of God, [even]
to Horeb.

.Ex 3:2
And the angel of the LORD appeared unto
him in a flame of
fire out of the midst of a bush: and
he looked, and, behold,
the bush burned with fire, and the bush
[was] not consumed.

.Ex 3:3
And Moses said, I will now turn aside,
and see this great sight,
why the bush is not burnt.

.Ex 3:4
And when the LORD saw that he turned
aside to see, God called
unto him out of the midst of the bush,
and said, Moses,
Moses. And he said, Here [am] I.

.Ex 3:5
And he said, Draw not nigh hither:
put off thy shoes from off
thy feet, for the place whereon thou
standest [is] holy ground.

.Ex 3:6
Moreover he said, I [am] the God of
thy father, the God of
Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God
of Jacob. And Moses
hid his face; for he was afraid to look
upon God.

.Ex 3:7
And the LORD said, I have surely seen
the affliction of my
people which [are] in Egypt, and have
heard their cry by reason
of their taskmasters; for I know their
sorrows;

.Ex 3:8
And I am come down to deliver them out
of the hand of the
Egyptians, and to bring them up out of
that land unto a good
land and a large, unto a land flowing
with milk and honey; unto
the place of the Canaanites, and the
Hittites, and the Amorites,
and the Perizzites, and the Hivites,
and the Jebusites.

.Ex 3:9
Now therefore, behold, the cry of the
children of Israel is
come unto me: and I have also seen the
oppression wherewith
the Egyptians oppress them.

.Ex 3:10
Come now therefore, and I will send
thee unto Pharaoh, that
thou mayest bring forth my people the
children of Israel out
of Egypt.

.Ex 3:11
And Moses said unto God, Who [am] I,
that I should go unto
Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth
the children of Israel
out of Egypt?

.Ex 3:12
And he said, Certainly I will be with
thee; and this [shall
be] a token unto thee, that I have sent
thee: When thou hast
brought forth the people out of Egypt,
ye shall serve God upon
this mountain.

.Ex 3:13
And Moses said unto God, Behold, [when]
I come unto the children
of Israel, and shall say unto them,
The God of your fathers
hath sent me unto you; and they shall
say to me, What [is]
his name? what shall I say unto them?

.Ex 3:14
And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I
AM: and he said, Thus
shalt thou say unto the children of
Israel, I AM hath sent me
unto you.

.Ex 3:15
And God said moreover unto Moses,
Thus shalt thou say unto
the children of Israel, The LORD God
of your fathers, the
God of Abraham, the God of Isaac,
and the God of Jacob, hath
sent me unto you: this [is] my name
for ever, and this [is]
my memorial unto all generations.

.Ex 3:16
Go, and gather the elders of Israel
together, and say unto them,
The LORD God of your fathers, the God
of Abraham, of Isaac,
and of Jacob, appeared unto me, saying,
I have surely visited
you, and [seen] that which is done to
you in Egypt:

.Ex 3:17
And I have said, I will bring you up
out of the affliction
of Egypt unto the land of the
Canaanites, and the Hittites,
and the Amorites, and the Perizzites,
and the Hivites, and
the Jebusites, unto a land flowing with
milk and honey.

.Ex 3:18
And they shall hearken to thy voice:
and thou shalt come, thou
and the elders of Israel, unto the king
of Egypt, and ye shall
say unto him, The LORD God of the
Hebrews hath met with us:
and now let us go, we beseech thee,
three days' journey into
the wilderness, that we may sacrifice
to the LORD our God.

.Ex 3:19
And I am sure that the king of Egypt
will not let you go, no,
not by a mighty hand.

.Ex 3:20
And I will stretch out my hand, and
smite Egypt with all my
wonders which I will do in the midst
thereof: and after that
he will let you go.

.Ex 3:21
And I will give this people favour in
the sight of the
Egyptians: and it shall come to pass,
that, when ye go, ye
shall not go empty:

.Ex 3:22
But every woman shall borrow of her
neighbour, and of her that
sojourneth in her house, jewels of
silver, and jewels of gold,
and raiment: and ye shall put [them]
upon your sons, and upon
your daughters; and ye shall spoil the
Egyptians.

.Ex 4:1
And Moses answered and said, But,
behold, they will not
believe me, nor hearken unto my voice:
for they will say,
The LORD hath not appeared unto thee.

.Ex 4:2
And the LORD said unto him, What [is]
that in thine hand? And
he said, A rod.

.Ex 4:3
And he said, Cast it on the ground. And
he cast it on the
ground, and it became a serpent; and
Moses fled from before it.

.Ex 4:4
And the LORD said unto Moses, Put forth
thine hand, and take
it by the tail. And he put forth his
hand, and caught it,
and it became a rod in his hand:

.Ex 4:5
That they may believe that the LORD
God of their fathers,
the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac,
and the God of Jacob,
hath appeared unto thee.

.Ex 4:6
And the LORD said furthermore unto him,
Put now thine hand
into thy bosom. And he put his hand
into his bosom: and when
he took it out, behold, his hand [was]
leprous as snow.

.Ex 4:7
And he said, Put thine hand into thy
bosom again. And he put
his hand into his bosom again; and
plucked it out of his bosom,
and, behold, it was turned again as his
[other] flesh.

.Ex 4:8
And it shall come to pass, if they will
not believe thee,
neither hearken to the voice of the
first sign, that they will
believe the voice of the latter sign.

.Ex 4:9
And it shall come to pass, if they will
not believe also these
two signs, neither hearken unto thy
voice, that thou shalt take
of the water of the river, and pour
[it] upon the dry [land]:
and the water which thou takest out of
the river shall become
blood upon the dry [land].

.Ex 4:10
And Moses said unto the LORD, O my
Lord, I [am] not eloquent,
neither heretofore, nor since thou hast
spoken unto thy servant:
but I [am] slow of speech, and of a
slow tongue.

.Ex 4:11
And the LORD said unto him, Who hath
made man's mouth? or who
maketh the dumb, or deaf, or the
seeing, or the blind? have
not I the LORD?

.Ex 4:12
Now therefore go, and I will be with
thy mouth, and teach thee
what thou shalt say.

.Ex 4:13
And he said, O my Lord, send, I pray
thee, by the hand [of
him whom] thou wilt send.

.Ex 4:14
And the anger of the LORD was kindled
against Moses, and he
said, [Is] not Aaron the Levite thy
brother? I know that he
can speak well. And also, behold,
he cometh forth to meet thee:
and when he seeth thee, he will be glad
in his heart.

.Ex 4:15
And thou shalt speak unto him, and put
words in his mouth:
and I will be with thy mouth, and with
his mouth, and will
teach you what ye shall do.

.Ex 4:16
And he shall be thy spokesman unto the
people: and he shall be,
[even] he shall be to thee instead of
a mouth, and thou shalt
be to him instead of God.

.Ex 4:17
And thou shalt take this rod in thine
hand, wherewith thou
shalt do signs.

.Ex 4:18
And Moses went and returned to Jethro
his father in law,
and said unto him, Let me go, I pray
thee, and return unto
my brethren which [are] in Egypt,
and see whether they be yet
alive. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in
peace.

.Ex 4:19
And the LORD said unto Moses in Midian,
Go, return into Egypt:
for all the men are dead which sought
thy life.

.Ex 4:20
And Moses took his wife and his sons,
and set them upon an ass,
and he returned to the land of Egypt:
and Moses took the rod
of God in his hand.

.Ex 4:21
And the LORD said unto Moses, When thou
goest to return into
Egypt, see that thou do all those
wonders before Pharaoh,
which I have put in thine hand: but I
will harden his heart,
that he shall not let the people go.

.Ex 4:22
And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus
saith the LORD, Israel
[is] my son, [even] my firstborn:

.Ex 4:23
And I say unto thee, Let my son go,
that he may serve me:
and if thou refuse to let him go,
behold, I will slay thy son,
[even] thy firstborn.

.Ex 4:24
And it came to pass by the way in the
inn, that the LORD met
him, and sought to kill him.

.Ex 4:25
Then Zipporah took a sharp stone,
and cut off the foreskin of
her son, and cast [it] at his feet,
and said, Surely a bloody
husband [art] thou to me.

.Ex 4:26
So he let him go: then she said,
A bloody husband [thou art],
because of the circumcision.

.Ex 4:27
And the LORD said to Aaron, Go into
the wilderness to meet
Moses. And he went, and met him in the
mount of God, and kissed
him.

.Ex 4:28
And Moses told Aaron all the words of
the LORD who had sent him,
and all the signs which he had
commanded him.

.Ex 4:29
And Moses and Aaron went and gathered
together all the elders
of the children of Israel:

.Ex 4:30
And Aaron spake all the words which
the LORD had spoken unto
Moses, and did the signs in the sight
of the people.

.Ex 4:31
And the people believed: and when they
heard that the LORD had
visited the children of Israel, and
that he had looked upon
their affliction, then they bowed their
heads and worshipped.

.Ex 5:1
And afterward Moses and Aaron went in,
and told Pharaoh, Thus
saith the LORD God of Israel, Let my
people go, that they may
hold a feast unto me in the
wilderness.

.Ex 5:2
And Pharaoh said, Who [is] the LORD,
that I should obey his
voice to let Israel go? I know not the
LORD, neither will I
let Israel go.

.Ex 5:3
And they said, The God of the Hebrews
hath met with us: let
us go, we pray thee, three days'
journey into the desert,
and sacrifice unto the LORD our God;
lest he fall upon us with
pestilence, or with the sword.

.Ex 5:4
And the king of Egypt said unto them,
Wherefore do ye, Moses
and Aaron, let the people from their
works? get you unto your
burdens.

.Ex 5:5
And Pharaoh said, Behold, the people
of the land now [are]
many, and ye make them rest from their
burdens.

.Ex 5:6
And Pharaoh commanded the same day the
taskmasters of the
people, and their officers, saying,

.Ex 5:7
Ye shall no more give the people straw
to make brick, as
heretofore: let them go and gather
straw for themselves.

.Ex 5:8
And the tale of the bricks, which they
did make heretofore,
ye shall lay upon them; ye shall not
diminish [ought] thereof:
for they [be] idle; therefore they cry,
saying, Let us go
[and] sacrifice to our God.

.Ex 5:9
Let there more work be laid upon the
men, that they may labour
therein; and let them not regard vain
words.

.Ex 5:10
And the taskmasters of the people went
out, and their officers,
and they spake to the people, saying,
Thus saith Pharaoh,
I will not give you straw.

.Ex 5:11
Go ye, get you straw where ye can find
it: yet not ought of
your work shall be diminished.

.Ex 5:12
So the people were scattered abroad
throughout all the land
of Egypt to gather stubble instead of
straw.

.Ex 5:13
And the taskmasters hasted [them],
saying, Fulfil your works,
[your] daily tasks, as when there was
straw.

.Ex 5:14
And the officers of the children of
Israel, which Pharaoh's
taskmasters had set over them, were
beaten, [and] demanded,
Wherefore have ye not fulfilled your
task in making brick both
yesterday and to day, as heretofore?

.Ex 5:15
Then the officers of the children of
Israel came and cried unto
Pharaoh, saying, Wherefore dealest thou
thus with thy servants?

.Ex 5:16
There is no straw given unto thy
servants, and they say to us,
Make brick: and, behold, thy servants
[are] beaten; but the
fault [is] in thine own people.

.Ex 5:17
But he said, Ye [are] idle, [ye are]
idle: therefore ye say,
Let us go [and] do sacrifice to the
LORD.

.Ex 5:18
Go therefore now, [and] work; for there
shall no straw be
given you, yet shall ye deliver the
tale of bricks.

.Ex 5:19
And the officers of the children of
Israel did see [that] they
[were] in evil [case], after it was
said, Ye shall not minish
[ought] from your bricks of your daily
task.

.Ex 5:20
And they met Moses and Aaron, who stood
in the way, as they
came forth from Pharaoh:

.Ex 5:21
And they said unto them, The LORD look
upon you, and judge;
because ye have made our savour to be
abhorred in the eyes of
Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his
servants, to put a sword in
their hand to slay us.

.Ex 5:22
And Moses returned unto the LORD,
and said, Lord, wherefore
hast thou [so] evil entreated this
people? why [is] it [that]
thou hast sent me?

.Ex 5:23
For since I came to Pharaoh to speak
in thy name, he hath done
evil to this people; neither hast thou
delivered thy people
at all.

.Ex 6:1
Then the LORD said unto Moses, Now
shalt thou see what I will
do to Pharaoh: for with a strong hand
shall he let them go,
and with a strong hand shall he drive
them out of his land.

.Ex 6:2
And God spake unto Moses, and said unto
him, I [am] the LORD:

.Ex 6:3
And I appeared unto Abraham, unto
Isaac, and unto Jacob, by
[the name of] God Almighty, but by my
name JEHOVAH was I not
known to them.

.Ex 6:4
And I have also established my covenant
with them, to give them
the land of Canaan, the land of their
pilgrimage, wherein they
were strangers.

.Ex 6:5
And I have also heard the groaning of
the children of Israel,
whom the Egyptians keep in bondage;
and I have remembered my
covenant.

.Ex 6:6
Wherefore say unto the children of
Israel, I [am] the LORD, and
I will bring you out from under the
burdens of the Egyptians,
and I will rid you out of their
bondage, and I will redeem
you with a stretched out arm, and with
great judgments:

.Ex 6:7
And I will take you to me for a people,
and I will be to you
a God: and ye shall know that I [am]
the LORD your God, which
bringeth you out from under the burdens
of the Egyptians.

.Ex 6:8
And I will bring you in unto the land,
concerning the which
I did swear to give it to Abraham,
to Isaac, and to Jacob;
and I will give it you for an heritage:
I [am] the LORD.

.Ex 6:9
And Moses spake so unto the children
of Israel: but they
hearkened not unto Moses for anguish
of spirit, and for cruel
bondage.

.Ex 6:10
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

.Ex 6:11
Go in, speak unto Pharaoh king of
Egypt, that he let the
children of Israel go out of his land.

.Ex 6:12
And Moses spake before the LORD,
saying, Behold, the children
of Israel have not hearkened unto me;
how then shall Pharaoh
hear me, who [am] of uncircumcised
lips?

.Ex 6:13
And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto
Aaron, and gave them
a charge unto the children of Israel,
and unto Pharaoh king
of Egypt, to bring the children of
Israel out of the land of
Egypt.

.Ex 6:14
These [be] the heads of their fathers'
houses: The sons of
Reuben the firstborn of Israel; Hanoch,
and Pallu, Hezron,
and Carmi: these [be] the families of
Reuben.

.Ex 6:15
And the sons of Simeon; Jemuel, and
Jamin, and Ohad, and Jachin,
and Zohar, and Shaul the son of a
Canaanitish woman: these
[are] the families of Simeon.

.Ex 6:16
And these [are] the names of the sons
of Levi according to their
generations; Gershon, and Kohath,
and Merari: and the years
of the life of Levi [were] an hundred
thirty and seven years.

.Ex 6:17
The sons of Gershon; Libni, and Shimi,
according to their
families.

.Ex 6:18
And the sons of Kohath; Amram, and
Izhar, and Hebron, and
Uzziel: and the years of the life of
Kohath [were] an hundred
thirty and three years.

.Ex 6:19
And the sons of Merari; Mahali and
Mushi: these [are] the
families of Levi according to their
generations.

.Ex 6:20
And Amram took him Jochebed his
father's sister to wife;
and she bare him Aaron and Moses:
and the years of the life
of Amram [were] an hundred and thirty
and seven years.

.Ex 6:21
And the sons of Izhar; Korah, and
Nepheg, and Zichri.

.Ex 6:22
And the sons of Uzziel; Mishael, and
Elzaphan, and Zithri.

.Ex 6:23
And Aaron took him Elisheba, daughter
of Amminadab, sister of
Naashon, to wife; and she bare him
Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar,
and Ithamar.

.Ex 6:24
And the sons of Korah; Assir, and
Elkanah, and Abiasaph: these
[are] the families of the Korhites.

.Ex 6:25
And Eleazar Aaron's son took him [one]
of the daughters of
Putiel to wife; and she bare him
Phinehas: these [are] the heads
of the fathers of the Levites according
to their families.

.Ex 6:26
These [are] that Aaron and Moses,
to whom the LORD said, Bring
out the children of Israel from the
land of Egypt according
to their armies.

.Ex 6:27
These [are] they which spake to Pharaoh
king of Egypt, to
bring out the children of Israel from
Egypt: these [are]
that Moses and Aaron.

.Ex 6:28
And it came to pass on the day [when]
the LORD spake unto
Moses in the land of Egypt,

.Ex 6:29
That the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
I [am] the LORD:
speak thou unto Pharaoh king of Egypt
all that I say unto thee.

.Ex 6:30
And Moses said before the LORD, Behold,
I [am] of uncircumcised
lips, and how shall Pharaoh hearken
unto me?

.Ex 7:1
And the LORD said unto Moses, See,
I have made thee a god to
Pharaoh: and Aaron thy brother shall
be thy prophet.

.Ex 7:2
Thou shalt speak all that I command
thee: and Aaron thy brother
shall speak unto Pharaoh, that he send
the children of Israel
out of his land.

.Ex 7:3
And I will harden Pharaoh's heart,
and multiply my signs and
my wonders in the land of Egypt.

.Ex 7:4
But Pharaoh shall not hearken unto you,
that I may lay my
hand upon Egypt, and bring forth mine
armies, [and] my people
the children of Israel, out of the land
of Egypt by great
judgments.

.Ex 7:5
And the Egyptians shall know that I
[am] the LORD, when I
stretch forth mine hand upon Egypt,
and bring out the children
of Israel from among them.

.Ex 7:6
And Moses and Aaron did as the LORD
commanded them, so did
they.

.Ex 7:7
And Moses [was] fourscore years old,
and Aaron fourscore and
three years old, when they spake unto
Pharaoh.

.Ex 7:8
And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto
Aaron, saying,

.Ex 7:9
When Pharaoh shall speak unto you,
saying, Shew a miracle for
you: then thou shalt say unto Aaron,
Take thy rod, and cast
[it] before Pharaoh, [and] it shall
become a serpent.

.Ex 7:10
And Moses and Aaron went in unto
Pharaoh, and they did so as
the LORD had commanded: and Aaron cast
down his rod before
Pharaoh, and before his servants,
and it became a serpent.

.Ex 7:11
Then Pharaoh also called the wise men
and the sorcerers:
now the magicians of Egypt, they also
did in like manner with
their enchantments.

.Ex 7:12
For they cast down every man his rod,
and they became serpents:
but Aaron's rod swallowed up their
rods.

.Ex 7:13
And he hardened Pharaoh's heart, that
he hearkened not unto
them; as the LORD had said.

.Ex 7:14
And the LORD said unto Moses, Pharaoh's
heart [is] hardened,
he refuseth to let the people go.

.Ex 7:15
Get thee unto Pharaoh in the morning;
lo, he goeth out unto
the water; and thou shalt stand by the
river's brink against
he come; and the rod which was turned
to a serpent shalt thou
take in thine hand.

.Ex 7:16
And thou shalt say unto him, The LORD
God of the Hebrews
hath sent me unto thee, saying, Let my
people go, that they
may serve me in the wilderness: and,
behold, hitherto thou
wouldest not hear.

.Ex 7:17
Thus saith the LORD, In this thou shalt
know that I [am] the
LORD: behold, I will smite with the
rod that [is] in mine hand
upon the waters which [are] in the
river, and they shall be
turned to blood.

.Ex 7:18
And the fish that [is] in the river
shall die, and the river
shall stink; and the Egyptians shall
lothe to drink of the
water of the river.

.Ex 7:19
And the LORD spake unto Moses, Say unto
Aaron, Take thy rod,
and stretch out thine hand upon the
waters of Egypt, upon their
streams, upon their rivers, and upon
their ponds, and upon all
their pools of water, that they may
become blood; and [that]
there may be blood throughout all the
land of Egypt, both in
[vessels of] wood, and in [vessels of]
stone.

.Ex 7:20
And Moses and Aaron did so, as the LORD
commanded; and he lifted
up the rod, and smote the waters that
[were] in the river,
in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the
sight of his servants; and
all the waters that [were] in the river
were turned to blood.

.Ex 7:21
And the fish that [was] in the river
died; and the river stank,
and the Egyptians could not drink of
the water of the river;
and there was blood throughout all the
land of Egypt.

.Ex 7:22
And the magicians of Egypt did so with
their enchantments:
and Pharaoh's heart was hardened,
neither did he hearken unto
them; as the LORD had said.

.Ex 7:23
And Pharaoh turned and went into his
house, neither did he
set his heart to this also.

.Ex 7:24
And all the Egyptians digged round
about the river for water
to drink; for they could not drink of
the water of the river.

.Ex 7:25
And seven days were fulfilled, after
that the LORD had smitten
the river.

.Ex 8:1
And the LORD spake unto Moses, Go unto
Pharaoh, and say unto
him, Thus saith the LORD, Let my people
go, that they may
serve me.

.Ex 8:2
And if thou refuse to let [them] go,
behold, I will smite all
thy borders with frogs:

.Ex 8:3
And the river shall bring forth frogs
abundantly, which shall
go up and come into thine house, and
into thy bedchamber,
and upon thy bed, and into the house
of thy servants, and upon
thy people, and into thine ovens,
and into thy kneadingtroughs:

.Ex 8:4
And the frogs shall come up both on
thee, and upon thy people,
and upon all thy servants.

.Ex 8:5
And the LORD spake unto Moses, Say unto
Aaron, Stretch forth
thine hand with thy rod over the
streams, over the rivers,
and over the ponds, and cause frogs to
come up upon the land
of Egypt.

.Ex 8:6
And Aaron stretched out his hand over
the waters of Egypt;
and the frogs came up, and covered the
land of Egypt.

.Ex 8:7
And the magicians did so with their
enchantments, and brought
up frogs upon the land of Egypt.

.Ex 8:8
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and
Aaron, and said, Intreat
the LORD, that he may take away the
frogs from me, and from
my people; and I will let the people
go, that they may do
sacrifice unto the LORD.

.Ex 8:9
And Moses said unto Pharaoh, Glory over
me: when shall I
intreat for thee, and for thy servants,
and for thy people,
to destroy the frogs from thee and thy
houses, [that] they
may remain in the river only?

.Ex 8:10
And he said, To morrow. And he said,
[Be it] according to thy
word: that thou mayest know that [there
is] none like unto
the LORD our God.

.Ex 8:11
And the frogs shall depart from thee,
and from thy houses,
and from thy servants, and from thy
people; they shall remain
in the river only.

.Ex 8:12
And Moses and Aaron went out from
Pharaoh: and Moses cried
unto the LORD because of the frogs
which he had brought against
Pharaoh.

.Ex 8:13
And the LORD did according to the word
of Moses; and the frogs
died out of the houses, out of the
villages, and out of the
fields.

.Ex 8:14
And they gathered them together upon
heaps: and the land stank.

.Ex 8:15
But when Pharaoh saw that there was
respite, he hardened his
heart, and hearkened not unto them;
as the LORD had said.

.Ex 8:16
And the LORD said unto Moses, Say unto
Aaron, Stretch out thy
rod, and smite the dust of the land,
that it may become lice
throughout all the land of Egypt.

.Ex 8:17
And they did so; for Aaron stretched
out his hand with his rod,
and smote the dust of the earth, and
it became lice in man,
and in beast; all the dust of the land
became lice throughout
all the land of Egypt.

.Ex 8:18
And the magicians did so with their
enchantments to bring
forth lice, but they could not: so
there were lice upon man,
and upon beast.

.Ex 8:19
Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh,
This [is] the finger of
God: and Pharaoh's heart was hardened,
and he hearkened not
unto them; as the LORD had said.

.Ex 8:20
And the LORD said unto Moses, Rise up
early in the morning,
and stand before Pharaoh; lo, he cometh
forth to the water;
and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD,
Let my people go,
that they may serve me.

.Ex 8:21
Else, if thou wilt not let my people
go, behold, I will send
swarms [of flies] upon thee, and upon
thy servants, and upon
thy people, and into thy houses: and
the houses of the Egyptians
shall be full of swarms [of flies],
and also the ground whereon
they [are].

.Ex 8:22
And I will sever in that day the land
of Goshen, in which
my people dwell, that no swarms [of
flies] shall be there;
to the end thou mayest know that I [am]
the LORD in the midst
of the earth.

.Ex 8:23
And I will put a division between my
people and thy people:
to morrow shall this sign be.

.Ex 8:24
And the LORD did so; and there came a
grievous swarm [of flies]
into the house of Pharaoh, and [into]
his servants' houses,
and into all the land of Egypt: the
land was corrupted by
reason of the swarm [of flies].

.Ex 8:25
And Pharaoh called for Moses and for
Aaron, and said, Go ye,
sacrifice to your God in the land.

.Ex 8:26
And Moses said, It is not meet so to
do; for we shall sacrifice
the abomination of the Egyptians to
the LORD our God: lo,
shall we sacrifice the abomination of
the Egyptians before
their eyes, and will they not stone
us?

.Ex 8:27
We will go three days' journey into
the wilderness, and
sacrifice to the LORD our God, as he
shall command us.

.Ex 8:28
And Pharaoh said, I will let you go,
that ye may sacrifice to
the LORD your God in the wilderness;
only ye shall not go very
far away: intreat for me.

.Ex 8:29
And Moses said, Behold, I go out from
thee, and I will intreat
the LORD that the swarms [of flies]
may depart from Pharaoh,
from his servants, and from his people,
to morrow: but let not
Pharaoh deal deceitfully any more in
not letting the people
go to sacrifice to the LORD.

.Ex 8:30
And Moses went out from Pharaoh, and
intreated the LORD.

.Ex 8:31
And the LORD did according to the word
of Moses; and he removed
the swarms [of flies] from Pharaoh,
from his servants, and
from his people; there remained not
one.

.Ex 8:32
And Pharaoh hardened his heart at this
time also, neither
would he let the people go.

.Ex 9:1
Then the LORD said unto Moses, Go in
unto Pharaoh, and tell
him, Thus saith the LORD God of the
Hebrews, Let my people go,
that they may serve me.

.Ex 9:2
For if thou refuse to let [them] go,
and wilt hold them still,

.Ex 9:3
Behold, the hand of the LORD is upon
thy cattle which [is] in
the field, upon the horses, upon the
asses, upon the camels,
upon the oxen, and upon the sheep:
[there shall be] a very
grievous murrain.

.Ex 9:4
And the LORD shall sever between the
cattle of Israel and the
cattle of Egypt: and there shall
nothing die of all [that is]
the children's of Israel.

.Ex 9:5
And the LORD appointed a set time,
saying, To morrow the LORD
shall do this thing in the land.

.Ex 9:6
And the LORD did that thing on the
morrow, and all the cattle
of Egypt died: but of the cattle of
the children of Israel
died not one.

.Ex 9:7
And Pharaoh sent, and, behold, there
was not one of the cattle
of the Israelites dead. And the heart
of Pharaoh was hardened,
and he did not let the people go.

.Ex 9:8
And the LORD said unto Moses and unto
Aaron, Take to you
handfuls of ashes of the furnace,
and let Moses sprinkle it
toward the heaven in the sight of
Pharaoh.

.Ex 9:9
And it shall become small dust in all
the land of Egypt,
and shall be a boil breaking forth
[with] blains upon man,
and upon beast, throughout all the land
of Egypt.

.Ex 9:10
And they took ashes of the furnace,
and stood before Pharaoh;
and Moses sprinkled it up toward
heaven; and it became a boil
breaking forth [with] blains upon man,
and upon beast.

.Ex 9:11
And the magicians could not stand
before Moses because of the
boils; for the boil was upon the
magicians, and upon all the
Egyptians.

.Ex 9:12
And the LORD hardened the heart of
Pharaoh, and he hearkened
not unto them; as the LORD had spoken
unto Moses.

.Ex 9:13
And the LORD said unto Moses, Rise up
early in the morning,
and stand before Pharaoh, and say unto
him, Thus saith the LORD
God of the Hebrews, Let my people go,
that they may serve me.

.Ex 9:14
For I will at this time send all my
plagues upon thine heart,
and upon thy servants, and upon thy
people; that thou mayest
know that [there is] none like me in
all the earth.

.Ex 9:15
For now I will stretch out my hand,
that I may smite thee and
thy people with pestilence; and thou
shalt be cut off from
the earth.

.Ex 9:16
And in very deed for this [cause]
have I raised thee up, for
to shew [in] thee my power; and that
my name may be declared
throughout all the earth.

.Ex 9:17
As yet exaltest thou thyself against
my people, that thou wilt
not let them go?

.Ex 9:18
Behold, to morrow about this time I
will cause it to rain a
very grievous hail, such as hath not
been in Egypt since the
foundation thereof even until now.

.Ex 9:19
Send therefore now, [and] gather thy
cattle, and all that
thou hast in the field; [for upon]
every man and beast which
shall be found in the field, and shall
not be brought home,
the hail shall come down upon them,
and they shall die.

.Ex 9:20
He that feared the word of the LORD
among the servants of
Pharaoh made his servants and his
cattle flee into the houses:

.Ex 9:21
And he that regarded not the word of
the LORD left his servants
and his cattle in the field.

.Ex 9:22
And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch
forth thine hand toward
heaven, that there may be hail in all
the land of Egypt,
upon man, and upon beast, and upon
every herb of the field,
throughout the land of Egypt.

.Ex 9:23
And Moses stretched forth his rod
toward heaven: and the LORD
sent thunder and hail, and the fire
ran along upon the ground;
and the LORD rained hail upon the land
of Egypt.

.Ex 9:24
So there was hail, and fire mingled
with the hail, very
grievous, such as there was none like
it in all the land of
Egypt since it became a nation.

.Ex 9:25
And the hail smote throughout all the
land of Egypt all that
[was] in the field, both man and beast;
and the hail smote
every herb of the field, and brake
every tree of the field.

.Ex 9:26
Only in the land of Goshen, where the
children of Israel
[were], was there no hail.

.Ex 9:27
And Pharaoh sent, and called for Moses
and Aaron, and said
unto them, I have sinned this time:
the LORD [is] righteous,
and I and my people [are] wicked.

.Ex 9:28
Intreat the LORD (for [it is] enough)
that there be no [more]
mighty thunderings and hail; and I will
let you go, and ye
shall stay no longer.

.Ex 9:29
And Moses said unto him, As soon as I
am gone out of the city,
I will spread abroad my hands unto the
LORD; [and] the thunder
shall cease, neither shall there be
any more hail; that thou
mayest know how that the earth [is]
the LORD'S.

.Ex 9:30
But as for thee and thy servants,
I know that ye will not yet
fear the LORD God.

.Ex 9:31
And the flax and the barley was
smitten: for the barley [was]
in the ear, and the flax [was] bolled.

.Ex 9:32
But the wheat and the rie were not
smitten: for they [were]
not grown up.

.Ex 9:33
And Moses went out of the city from
Pharaoh, and spread abroad
his hands unto the LORD: and the
thunders and hail ceased,
and the rain was not poured upon the
earth.

.Ex 9:34
And when Pharaoh saw that the rain and
the hail and the
thunders were ceased, he sinned yet
more, and hardened his
heart, he and his servants.

.Ex 9:35
And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened,
neither would he let
the children of Israel go; as the LORD
had spoken by Moses.

.Ex 10:1
And the LORD said unto Moses, Go in
unto Pharaoh: for I have
hardened his heart, and the heart of
his servants, that I
might shew these my signs before him:

.Ex 10:2
And that thou mayest tell in the ears
of thy son, and of thy
son's son, what things I have wrought
in Egypt, and my signs
which I have done among them; that ye
may know how that I [am]
the LORD.

.Ex 10:3
And Moses and Aaron came in unto
Pharaoh, and said unto him,
Thus saith the LORD God of the Hebrews,
How long wilt thou
refuse to humble thyself before me? let
my people go, that
they may serve me.

.Ex 10:4
Else, if thou refuse to let my people
go, behold, to morrow
will I bring the locusts into thy
coast:

.Ex 10:5
And they shall cover the face of the
earth, that one cannot be
able to see the earth: and they shall
eat the residue of that
which is escaped, which remaineth unto
you from the hail, and
shall eat every tree which groweth for
you out of the field:

.Ex 10:6
And they shall fill thy houses, and
the houses of all thy
servants, and the houses of all the
Egyptians; which neither thy
fathers, nor thy fathers' fathers have
seen, since the day that
they were upon the earth unto this
day. And he turned himself,
and went out from Pharaoh.

.Ex 10:7
And Pharaoh's servants said unto him,
How long shall this man
be a snare unto us? let the men go,
that they may serve the
LORD their God: knowest thou not yet
that Egypt is destroyed?

.Ex 10:8
And Moses and Aaron were brought again
unto Pharaoh: and he
said unto them, Go, serve the LORD your
God: [but] who [are]
they that shall go?

.Ex 10:9
And Moses said, We will go with our
young and with our old,
with our sons and with our daughters,
with our flocks and with
our herds will we go; for we [must
hold] a feast unto the LORD.

.Ex 10:10
And he said unto them, Let the LORD be
so with you, as I will
let you go, and your little ones: look
[to it]; for evil [is]
before you.

.Ex 10:11
Not so: go now ye [that are] men,
and serve the LORD; for
that ye did desire. And they were
driven out from Pharaoh's
presence.

.Ex 10:12
And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch
out thine hand over the
land of Egypt for the locusts, that
they may come up upon
the land of Egypt, and eat every herb
of the land, [even]
all that the hail hath left.

.Ex 10:13
And Moses stretched forth his rod over
the land of Egypt,
and the LORD brought an east wind upon
the land all that day,
and all [that] night; [and] when it
was morning, the east wind
brought the locusts.

.Ex 10:14
And the locusts went up over all the
land of Egypt, and rested
in all the coasts of Egypt: very
grievous [were they]; before
them there were no such locusts as
they, neither after them
shall be such.

.Ex 10:15
For they covered the face of the whole
earth, so that the
land was darkened; and they did eat
every herb of the land,
and all the fruit of the trees which
the hail had left: and
there remained not any green thing in
the trees, or in the
herbs of the field, through all the
land of Egypt.

.Ex 10:16
Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron
in haste; and he said,
I have sinned against the LORD your
God, and against you.

.Ex 10:17
Now therefore forgive, I pray thee,
my sin only this once,
and intreat the LORD your God, that he
may take away from me
this death only.

.Ex 10:18
And he went out from Pharaoh, and
intreated the LORD.

.Ex 10:19
And the LORD turned a mighty strong
west wind, which took away
the locusts, and cast them into the
Red sea; there remained
not one locust in all the coasts of
Egypt.

.Ex 10:20
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart,
so that he would not
let the children of Israel go.

.Ex 10:21
And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch
out thine hand toward
heaven, that there may be darkness over
the land of Egypt,
even darkness [which] may be felt.

.Ex 10:22
And Moses stretched forth his hand
toward heaven; and there
was a thick darkness in all the land
of Egypt three days:

.Ex 10:23
They saw not one another, neither rose
any from his place for
three days: but all the children of
Israel had light in their
dwellings.

.Ex 10:24
And Pharaoh called unto Moses, and
said, Go ye, serve the LORD;
only let your flocks and your herds be
stayed: let your little
ones also go with you.

.Ex 10:25
And Moses said, Thou must give us also
sacrifices and burnt
offerings, that we may sacrifice unto
the LORD our God.

.Ex 10:26
Our cattle also shall go with us;
there shall not an hoof
be left behind; for thereof must we
take to serve the LORD
our God; and we know not with what we
must serve the LORD,
until we come thither.

.Ex 10:27
But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart,
and he would not let
them go.

.Ex 10:28
And Pharaoh said unto him, Get thee
from me, take heed to
thyself, see my face no more; for in
[that] day thou seest my
face thou shalt die.

.Ex 10:29
And Moses said, Thou hast spoken well,
I will see thy face
again no more.

.Ex 11:1
And the LORD said unto Moses, Yet will
I bring one plague
[more] upon Pharaoh, and upon Egypt;
afterwards he will let
you go hence: when he shall let [you]
go, he shall surely
thrust you out hence altogether.

.Ex 11:2
Speak now in the ears of the people,
and let every man borrow
of his neighbour, and every woman of
her neighbour, jewels of
silver, and jewels of gold.

.Ex 11:3
And the LORD gave the people favour in
the sight of the
Egyptians. Moreover the man Moses [was]
very great in the land
of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh's
servants, and in the sight
of the people.

.Ex 11:4
And Moses said, Thus saith the LORD,
About midnight will I go
out into the midst of Egypt:

.Ex 11:5
And all the firstborn in the land of
Egypt shall die, from the
firstborn of Pharaoh that sitteth upon
his throne, even unto
the firstborn of the maidservant that
[is] behind the mill;
and all the firstborn of beasts.

.Ex 11:6
And there shall be a great cry
throughout all the land of Egypt,
such as there was none like it, nor
shall be like it any more.

.Ex 11:7
But against any of the children of
Israel shall not a dog move
his tongue, against man or beast:
that ye may know how that the
LORD doth put a difference between the
Egyptians and Israel.

.Ex 11:8
And all these thy servants shall come
down unto me, and bow
down themselves unto me, saying, Get
thee out, and all the
people that follow thee: and after that
I will go out. And he
went out from Pharaoh in a great
anger.

.Ex 11:9
And the LORD said unto Moses, Pharaoh
shall not hearken unto
you; that my wonders may be multiplied
in the land of Egypt.

.Ex 11:10
And Moses and Aaron did all these
wonders before Pharaoh:
and the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart,
so that he would not
let the children of Israel go out of
his land.

.Ex 12:1
And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron
in the land of Egypt,
saying,

.Ex 12:2
This month [shall be] unto you the
beginning of months: it
[shall be] the first month of the year
to you.

.Ex 12:3
Speak ye unto all the congregation of
Israel, saying, In the
tenth [day] of this month they shall
take to them every man
a lamb, according to the house of
[their] fathers, a lamb for
an house:

.Ex 12:4
And if the household be too little for
the lamb, let him and
his neighbour next unto his house take
[it] according to the
number of the souls; every man
according to his eating shall
make your count for the lamb.

.Ex 12:5
Your lamb shall be without blemish,
a male of the first year:
ye shall take [it] out from the sheep,
or from the goats:

.Ex 12:6
And ye shall keep it up until the
fourteenth day of the same
month: and the whole assembly of the
congregation of Israel
shall kill it in the evening.

.Ex 12:7
And they shall take of the blood,
and strike [it] on the two
side posts and on the upper door post
of the houses, wherein
they shall eat it.

.Ex 12:8
And they shall eat the flesh in that
night, roast with fire, and
unleavened bread; [and] with bitter
[herbs] they shall eat it.

.Ex 12:9
Eat not of it raw, nor sodden at all
with water, but roast
[with] fire; his head with his legs,
and with the purtenance
thereof.

.Ex 12:10
And ye shall let nothing of it remain
until the morning; and
that which remaineth of it until the
morning ye shall burn
with fire.

.Ex 12:11
And thus shall ye eat it; [with] your
loins girded, your shoes
on your feet, and your staff in your
hand; and ye shall eat
it in haste: it [is] the LORD'S
passover.

.Ex 12:12
For I will pass through the land of
Egypt this night, and
will smite all the firstborn in the
land of Egypt, both man
and beast; and against all the gods of
Egypt I will execute
judgment: I [am] the LORD.

.Ex 12:13
And the blood shall be to you for a
token upon the houses
where ye [are]: and when I see the
blood, I will pass over
you, and the plague shall not be upon
you to destroy [you],
when I smite the land of Egypt.

.Ex 12:14
And this day shall be unto you for a
memorial; and ye shall
keep it a feast to the LORD throughout
your generations;
ye shall keep it a feast by an
ordinance for ever.

.Ex 12:15
Seven days shall ye eat unleavened
bread; even the first day
ye shall put away leaven out of your
houses: for whosoever
eateth leavened bread from the first
day until the seventh day,
that soul shall be cut off from
Israel.

.Ex 12:16
And in the first day [there shall be]
an holy convocation,
and in the seventh day there shall be
an holy convocation
to you; no manner of work shall be done
in them, save [that]
which every man must eat, that only
may be done of you.

.Ex 12:17
And ye shall observe [the feast of]
unleavened bread; for
in this selfsame day have I brought
your armies out of the
land of Egypt: therefore shall ye
observe this day in your
generations by an ordinance for ever.

.Ex 12:18
In the first [month], on the fourteenth
day of the month
at even, ye shall eat unleavened bread,
until the one and
twentieth day of the month at even.

.Ex 12:19
Seven days shall there be no leaven
found in your houses:
for whosoever eateth that which is
leavened, even that soul
shall be cut off from the congregation
of Israel, whether he
be a stranger, or born in the land.

.Ex 12:20
Ye shall eat nothing leavened; in all
your habitations shall
ye eat unleavened bread.

.Ex 12:21
Then Moses called for all the elders
of Israel, and said unto
them, Draw out and take you a lamb
according to your families,
and kill the passover.

.Ex 12:22
And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop,
and dip [it] in the blood
that [is] in the bason, and strike the
lintel and the two side
posts with the blood that [is] in the
bason; and none of you
shall go out at the door of his house
until the morning.

.Ex 12:23
For the LORD will pass through to smite
the Egyptians; and
when he seeth the blood upon the
lintel, and on the two side
posts, the LORD will pass over the
door, and will not suffer
the destroyer to come in unto your
houses to smite [you].

.Ex 12:24
And ye shall observe this thing for an
ordinance to thee and
to thy sons for ever.

.Ex 12:25
And it shall come to pass, when ye be
come to the land which
the LORD will give you, according as
he hath promised, that
ye shall keep this service.

.Ex 12:26
And it shall come to pass, when your
children shall say unto
you, What mean ye by this service?

.Ex 12:27
That ye shall say, It [is] the
sacrifice of the LORD'S passover,
who passed over the houses of the
children of Israel in Egypt,
when he smote the Egyptians, and
delivered our houses. And
the people bowed the head and
worshipped.

.Ex 12:28
And the children of Israel went away,
and did as the LORD had
commanded Moses and Aaron, so did
they.

.Ex 12:29
And it came to pass, that at midnight
the LORD smote all the
firstborn in the land of Egypt, from
the firstborn of Pharaoh
that sat on his throne unto the
firstborn of the captive that
[was] in the dungeon; and all the
firstborn of cattle.

.Ex 12:30
And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he,
and all his servants,
and all the Egyptians; and there was
a great cry in Egypt;
for [there was] not a house where
[there was] not one dead.

.Ex 12:31
And he called for Moses and Aaron by
night, and said, Rise up,
[and] get you forth from among my
people, both ye and the
children of Israel; and go, serve the
LORD, as ye have said.

.Ex 12:32
Also take your flocks and your herds,
as ye have said, and be
gone; and bless me also.

.Ex 12:33
And the Egyptians were urgent upon the
people, that they might
send them out of the land in haste;
for they said, We [be]
all dead [men].

.Ex 12:34
And the people took their dough before
it was leavened, their
kneadingtroughs being bound up in their
clothes upon their
shoulders.

.Ex 12:35
And the children of Israel did
according to the word of Moses;
and they borrowed of the Egyptians
jewels of silver, and jewels
of gold, and raiment:

.Ex 12:36
And the LORD gave the people favour in
the sight of the
Egyptians, so that they lent unto them
[such things as they
required]. And they spoiled the
Egyptians.

.Ex 12:37
And the children of Israel journeyed
from Rameses to Succoth,
about six hundred thousand on foot
[that were] men, beside
children.

.Ex 12:38
And a mixed multitude went up also with
them; and flocks,
and herds, [even] very much cattle.

.Ex 12:39
And they baked unleavened cakes of the
dough which they
brought forth out of Egypt, for it was
not leavened; because
they were thrust out of Egypt, and
could not tarry, neither
had they prepared for themselves any
victual.

.Ex 12:40
Now the sojourning of the children of
Israel, who dwelt in
Egypt, [was] four hundred and thirty
years.

.Ex 12:41
And it came to pass at the end of the
four hundred and thirty
years, even the selfsame day it came
to pass, that all the
hosts of the LORD went out from the
land of Egypt.

.Ex 12:42
It [is] a night to be much observed
unto the LORD for bringing
them out from the land of Egypt: this
[is] that night of the
LORD to be observed of all the children
of Israel in their
generations.

.Ex 12:43
And the LORD said unto Moses and Aaron,
This [is] the ordinance
of the passover: There shall no
stranger eat thereof:

.Ex 12:44
But every man's servant that is bought
for money, when thou
hast circumcised him, then shall he
eat thereof.

.Ex 12:45
A foreigner and an hired servant shall
not eat thereof.

.Ex 12:46
In one house shall it be eaten; thou
shalt not carry forth
ought of the flesh abroad out of the
house; neither shall ye
break a bone thereof.

.Ex 12:47
All the congregation of Israel shall
keep it.

.Ex 12:48
And when a stranger shall sojourn with
thee, and will keep
the passover to the LORD, let all his
males be circumcised,
and then let him come near and keep it;
and he shall be as one
that is born in the land: for no
uncircumcised person shall
eat thereof.

.Ex 12:49
One law shall be to him that is
homeborn, and unto the stranger
that sojourneth among you.

.Ex 12:50
Thus did all the children of Israel;
as the LORD commanded
Moses and Aaron, so did they.

.Ex 12:51
And it came to pass the selfsame day,
[that] the LORD did
bring the children of Israel out of
the land of Egypt by their
armies.

.Ex 13:1
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

.Ex 13:2
Sanctify unto me all the firstborn,
whatsoever openeth the womb
among the children of Israel, [both]
of man and of beast: it
[is] mine.

.Ex 13:3
And Moses said unto the people,
Remember this day, in which
ye came out from Egypt, out of the
house of bondage; for by
strength of hand the LORD brought you
out from this [place]:
there shall no leavened bread be
eaten.

.Ex 13:4
This day came ye out in the month
Abib.

.Ex 13:5
And it shall be when the LORD shall
bring thee into the land
of the Canaanites, and the Hittites,
and the Amorites, and the
Hivites, and the Jebusites, which he
sware unto thy fathers
to give thee, a land flowing with milk
and honey, that thou
shalt keep this service in this month.

.Ex 13:6
Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened
bread, and in the seventh
day [shall be] a feast to the LORD.

.Ex 13:7
Unleavened bread shall be eaten seven
days; and there shall
no leavened bread be seen with thee,
neither shall there be
leaven seen with thee in all thy
quarters.

.Ex 13:8
And thou shalt shew thy son in that
day, saying, [This is done]
because of that [which] the LORD did
unto me when I came forth
out of Egypt.

.Ex 13:9
And it shall be for a sign unto thee
upon thine hand, and for
a memorial between thine eyes, that
the LORD'S law may be in
thy mouth: for with a strong hand hath
the LORD brought thee
out of Egypt.

.Ex 13:10
Thou shalt therefore keep this
ordinance in his season from
year to year.

.Ex 13:11
And it shall be when the LORD shall
bring thee into the land
of the Canaanites, as he sware unto
thee and to thy fathers,
and shall give it thee,

.Ex 13:12
That thou shalt set apart unto the LORD
all that openeth the
matrix, and every firstling that cometh
of a beast which thou
hast; the males [shall be] the LORD'S.

.Ex 13:13
And every firstling of an ass thou
shalt redeem with a lamb; and
if thou wilt not redeem it, then thou
shalt break his neck: and
all the firstborn of man among thy
children shalt thou redeem.

.Ex 13:14
And it shall be when thy son asketh
thee in time to come,
saying, What [is] this? that thou shalt
say unto him, By
strength of hand the LORD brought us
out from Egypt, from the
house of bondage:

.Ex 13:15
And it came to pass, when Pharaoh would
hardly let us go, that
the LORD slew all the firstborn in the
land of Egypt, both
the firstborn of man, and the firstborn
of beast: therefore I
sacrifice to the LORD all that openeth
the matrix, being males;
but all the firstborn of my children
I redeem.

.Ex 13:16
And it shall be for a token upon thine
hand, and for frontlets
between thine eyes: for by strength of
hand the LORD brought
us forth out of Egypt.

.Ex 13:17
And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had
let the people go,
that God led them not [through] the
way of the land of the
Philistines, although that [was] near;
for God said, Lest
peradventure the people repent when
they see war, and they
return to Egypt:

.Ex 13:18
But God led the people about, [through]
the way of the
wilderness of the Red sea: and the
children of Israel went up
harnessed out of the land of Egypt.

.Ex 13:19
And Moses took the bones of Joseph with
him: for he had straitly
sworn the children of Israel, saying,
God will surely visit you;
and ye shall carry up my bones away
hence with you.

.Ex 13:20
And they took their journey from
Succoth, and encamped in Etham,
in the edge of the wilderness.

.Ex 13:21
And the LORD went before them by day
in a pillar of a cloud,
to lead them the way; and by night in
a pillar of fire, to
give them light; to go by day and
night:

.Ex 13:22
He took not away the pillar of the
cloud by day, nor the pillar
of fire by night, [from] before the
people.

.Ex 14:1
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

.Ex 14:2
Speak unto the children of Israel,
that they turn and encamp
before Pihahiroth, between Migdol and
the sea, over against
Baalzephon: before it shall ye encamp
by the sea.

.Ex 14:3
For Pharaoh will say of the children
of Israel, They [are]
entangled in the land, the wilderness
hath shut them in.

.Ex 14:4
And I will harden Pharaoh's heart,
that he shall follow after
them; and I will be honoured upon
Pharaoh, and upon all his
host; that the Egyptians may know that
I [am] the LORD. And
they did so.

.Ex 14:5
And it was told the king of Egypt that
the people fled: and
the heart of Pharaoh and of his
servants was turned against
the people, and they said, Why have we
done this, that we have
let Israel go from serving us?

.Ex 14:6
And he made ready his chariot, and took
his people with him:

.Ex 14:7
And he took six hundred chosen
chariots, and all the chariots
of Egypt, and captains over every one
of them.

.Ex 14:8
And the LORD hardened the heart of
Pharaoh king of Egypt, and
he pursued after the children of
Israel: and the children of
Israel went out with an high hand.

.Ex 14:9
But the Egyptians pursued after them,
all the horses [and]
chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen,
and his army, and
overtook them encamping by the sea,
beside Pihahiroth, before
Baalzephon.

.Ex 14:10
And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the
children of Israel lifted up
their eyes, and, behold, the Egyptians
marched after them;
and they were sore afraid: and the
children of Israel cried
out unto the LORD.

.Ex 14:11
And they said unto Moses, Because
[there were] no
graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us
away to die in the
wilderness? wherefore hast thou dealt
thus with us, to carry
us forth out of Egypt?

.Ex 14:12
[Is] not this the word that we did tell
thee in Egypt, saying,
Let us alone, that we may serve the
Egyptians? For [it had been]
better for us to serve the Egyptians,
than that we should die
in the wilderness.

.Ex 14:13
And Moses said unto the people, Fear
ye not, stand still,
and see the salvation of the LORD,
which he will shew to you
to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have
seen to day, ye shall
see them again no more for ever.

.Ex 14:14
The LORD shall fight for you, and ye
shall hold your peace.

.Ex 14:15
And the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore
criest thou unto
me? speak unto the children of Israel,
that they go forward:

.Ex 14:16
But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch
out thine hand over the
sea, and divide it: and the children
of Israel shall go on dry
[ground] through the midst of the sea.

.Ex 14:17
And I, behold, I will harden the hearts
of the Egyptians,
and they shall follow them: and I will
get me honour upon
Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon
his chariots, and upon
his horsemen.

.Ex 14:18
And the Egyptians shall know that I
[am] the LORD, when I
have gotten me honour upon Pharaoh,
upon his chariots, and
upon his horsemen.

.Ex 14:19
And the angel of God, which went before
the camp of Israel,
removed and went behind them; and the
pillar of the cloud went
from before their face, and stood
behind them:

.Ex 14:20
And it came between the camp of the
Egyptians and the camp
of Israel; and it was a cloud and
darkness [to them], but it
gave light by night [to these]: so that
the one came not near
the other all the night.

.Ex 14:21
And Moses stretched out his hand over
the sea; and the LORD
caused the sea to go [back] by a strong
east wind all that
night, and made the sea dry [land],
and the waters were
divided.

.Ex 14:22
And the children of Israel went into
the midst of the sea upon
the dry [ground]: and the waters [were]
a wall unto them on
their right hand, and on their left.

.Ex 14:23
And the Egyptians pursued, and went in
after them to the
midst of the sea, [even] all Pharaoh's
horses, his chariots,
and his horsemen.

.Ex 14:24
And it came to pass, that in the
morning watch the LORD looked
unto the host of the Egyptians through
the pillar of fire and
of the cloud, and troubled the host of
the Egyptians,

.Ex 14:25
And took off their chariot wheels,
that they drave them heavily:
so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee
from the face of Israel;
for the LORD fighteth for them against
the Egyptians.

.Ex 14:26
And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch
out thine hand over
the sea, that the waters may come again
upon the Egyptians,
upon their chariots, and upon their
horsemen.

.Ex 14:27
And Moses stretched forth his hand over
the sea, and the sea
returned to his strength when the
morning appeared; and the
Egyptians fled against it; and the LORD
overthrew the Egyptians
in the midst of the sea.

.Ex 14:28
And the waters returned, and covered
the chariots, and the
horsemen, [and] all the host of Pharaoh
that came into the
sea after them; there remained not so
much as one of them.

.Ex 14:29
But the children of Israel walked upon
dry [land] in the midst
of the sea; and the waters [were]
a wall unto them on their
right hand, and on their left.

.Ex 14:30
Thus the LORD saved Israel that day
out of the hand of the
Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians
dead upon the sea
shore.

.Ex 14:31
And Israel saw that great work which
the LORD did upon the
Egyptians: and the people feared the
LORD, and believed the
LORD, and his servant Moses.

.Ex 15:1
Then sang Moses and the children of
Israel this song unto the
LORD, and spake, saying, I will sing
unto the LORD, for he
hath triumphed gloriously: the horse
and his rider hath he
thrown into the sea.

.Ex 15:2
The LORD [is] my strength and song,
and he is become my
salvation: he [is] my God, and I will
prepare him an habitation;
my father's God, and I will exalt him.

.Ex 15:3
The LORD [is] a man of war: the LORD
[is] his name.

.Ex 15:4
Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath
he cast into the sea:
his chosen captains also are drowned
in the Red sea.

.Ex 15:5
The depths have covered them: they sank
into the bottom as a
stone.

.Ex 15:6
Thy right hand, O LORD, is become
glorious in power: thy right
hand, O LORD, hath dashed in pieces
the enemy.

.Ex 15:7
And in the greatness of thine
excellency thou hast overthrown
them that rose up against thee: thou
sentest forth thy wrath,
[which] consumed them as stubble.

.Ex 15:8
And with the blast of thy nostrils the
waters were gathered
together, the floods stood upright as
an heap, [and] the depths
were congealed in the heart of the
sea.

.Ex 15:9
The enemy said, I will pursue, I will
overtake, I will divide
the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied
upon them; I will draw
my sword, my hand shall destroy them.

.Ex 15:10
Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea
covered them: they sank
as lead in the mighty waters.

.Ex 15:11
Who [is] like unto thee, O LORD, among
the gods? who [is]
like thee, glorious in holiness,
fearful [in] praises, doing
wonders?

.Ex 15:12
Thou stretchedst out thy right hand,
the earth swallowed them.

.Ex 15:13
Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the
people [which] thou hast
redeemed: thou hast guided [them]
in thy strength unto thy
holy habitation.

.Ex 15:14
The people shall hear, [and] be afraid:
sorrow shall take hold
on the inhabitants of Palestina.

.Ex 15:15
Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed;
the mighty men of Moab,
trembling shall take hold upon them;
all the inhabitants of
Canaan shall melt away.

.Ex 15:16
Fear and dread shall fall upon them;
by the greatness of thine
arm they shall be [as] still as a
stone; till thy people pass
over, O LORD, till the people pass
over, [which] thou hast
purchased.

.Ex 15:17
Thou shalt bring them in, and plant
them in the mountain
of thine inheritance, [in] the place,
O LORD, [which] thou
hast made for thee to dwell in, [in]
the Sanctuary, O Lord,
[which] thy hands have established.

.Ex 15:18
The LORD shall reign for ever and
ever.

.Ex 15:19
For the horse of Pharaoh went in with
his chariots and with his
horsemen into the sea, and the LORD
brought again the waters
of the sea upon them; but the children
of Israel went on dry
[land] in the midst of the sea.

.Ex 15:20
And Miriam the prophetess, the sister
of Aaron, took a timbrel
in her hand; and all the women went
out after her with timbrels
and with dances.

.Ex 15:21
And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to
the LORD, for he hath
triumphed gloriously; the horse and
his rider hath he thrown
into the sea.

.Ex 15:22
So Moses brought Israel from the Red
sea, and they went out
into the wilderness of Shur; and they
went three days in the
wilderness, and found no water.

.Ex 15:23
And when they came to Marah, they could
not drink of the
waters of Marah, for they [were]
bitter: therefore the name
of it was called Marah.

.Ex 15:24
And the people murmured against Moses,
saying, What shall we
drink?

.Ex 15:25
And he cried unto the LORD; and the
LORD shewed him a tree,
[which] when he had cast into the
waters, the waters were
made sweet: there he made for them a
statute and an ordinance,
and there he proved them,

.Ex 15:26
And said, If thou wilt diligently
hearken to the voice of the
LORD thy God, and wilt do that which
is right in his sight, and
wilt give ear to his commandments,
and keep all his statutes, I
will put none of these diseases upon
thee, which I have brought
upon the Egyptians: for I [am] the LORD
that healeth thee.

.Ex 15:27
And they came to Elim, where [were]
twelve wells of water,
and threescore and ten palm trees:
and they encamped there by
the waters.

.Ex 16:1
And they took their journey from Elim,
and all the congregation
of the children of Israel came unto
the wilderness of Sin,
which [is] between Elim and Sinai,
on the fifteenth day of the
second month after their departing out
of the land of Egypt.

.Ex 16:2
And the whole congregation of the
children of Israel murmured
against Moses and Aaron in the
wilderness:

.Ex 16:3
And the children of Israel said unto
them, Would to God we had
died by the hand of the LORD in the
land of Egypt, when we sat
by the flesh pots, [and] when we did
eat bread to the full;
for ye have brought us forth into this
wilderness, to kill
this whole assembly with hunger.

.Ex 16:4
Then said the LORD unto Moses, Behold,
I will rain bread
from heaven for you; and the people
shall go out and gather
a certain rate every day, that I may
prove them, whether they
will walk in my law, or no.

.Ex 16:5
And it shall come to pass, that on the
sixth day they shall
prepare [that] which they bring in;
and it shall be twice as
much as they gather daily.

.Ex 16:6
And Moses and Aaron said unto all the
children of Israel,
At even, then ye shall know that the
LORD hath brought you
out from the land of Egypt:

.Ex 16:7
And in the morning, then ye shall see
the glory of the LORD;
for that he heareth your murmurings
against the LORD: and what
[are] we, that ye murmur against us?

.Ex 16:8
And Moses said, [This shall be], when
the LORD shall give
you in the evening flesh to eat, and
in the morning bread to
the full; for that the LORD heareth
your murmurings which ye
murmur against him: and what [are]
we? your murmurings [are]
not against us, but against the LORD.

.Ex 16:9
And Moses spake unto Aaron, Say unto
all the congregation of
the children of Israel, Come near
before the LORD: for he hath
heard your murmurings.

.Ex 16:10
And it came to pass, as Aaron spake
unto the whole congregation
of the children of Israel, that they
looked toward the
wilderness, and, behold, the glory of
the LORD appeared in
the cloud.

.Ex 16:11
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

.Ex 16:12
I have heard the murmurings of the
children of Israel: speak
unto them, saying, At even ye shall
eat flesh, and in the
morning ye shall be filled with bread;
and ye shall know that I
[am] the LORD your God.

.Ex 16:13
And it came to pass, that at even the
quails came up, and
covered the camp: and in the morning
the dew lay round about
the host.

.Ex 16:14
And when the dew that lay was gone up,
behold, upon the face
of the wilderness [there lay] a small
round thing, [as] small
as the hoar frost on the ground.

.Ex 16:15
And when the children of Israel saw
[it], they said one to
another, It [is] manna: for they wist
not what it [was]. And
Moses said unto them, This [is] the
bread which the LORD hath
given you to eat.

.Ex 16:16
This [is] the thing which the LORD hath
commanded, Gather of
it every man according to his eating,
an omer for every man,
[according to] the number of your
persons; take ye every man
for [them] which [are] in his tents.

.Ex 16:17
And the children of Israel did so,
and gathered, some more,
some less.

.Ex 16:18
And when they did mete [it] with an
omer, he that gathered
much had nothing over, and he that
gathered little had no lack;
they gathered every man according to
his eating.

.Ex 16:19
And Moses said, Let no man leave of it
till the morning.

.Ex 16:20
Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto
Moses; but some of them
left of it until the morning, and it
bred worms, and stank:
and Moses was wroth with them.

.Ex 16:21
And they gathered it every morning,
every man according to
his eating: and when the sun waxed hot,
it melted.

.Ex 16:22
And it came to pass, [that] on the
sixth day they gathered
twice as much bread, two omers for one
[man]: and all the
rulers of the congregation came and
told Moses.

.Ex 16:23
And he said unto them, This [is that]
which the LORD hath said,
To morrow [is] the rest of the holy
sabbath unto the LORD:
bake [that] which ye will bake [to
day], and seethe that ye
will seethe; and that which remaineth
over lay up for you to
be kept until the morning.

.Ex 16:24
And they laid it up till the morning,
as Moses bade: and it
did not stink, neither was there any
worm therein.

.Ex 16:25
And Moses said, Eat that to day; for
to day [is] a sabbath
unto the LORD: to day ye shall not find
it in the field.

.Ex 16:26
Six days ye shall gather it; but on
the seventh day, [which is]
the sabbath, in it there shall be
none.

.Ex 16:27
And it came to pass, [that] there went
out [some] of the people
on the seventh day for to gather,
and they found none.

.Ex 16:28
And the LORD said unto Moses, How long
refuse ye to keep my
commandments and my laws?

.Ex 16:29
See, for that the LORD hath given you
the sabbath, therefore
he giveth you on the sixth day the
bread of two days; abide
ye every man in his place, let no man
go out of his place on
the seventh day.

.Ex 16:30
So the people rested on the seventh
day.

.Ex 16:31
And the house of Israel called the name
thereof Manna: and it
[was] like coriander seed, white;
and the taste of it [was]
like wafers [made] with honey.

.Ex 16:32
And Moses said, This [is] the thing
which the LORD commandeth,
Fill an omer of it to be kept for your
generations; that they
may see the bread wherewith I have fed
you in the wilderness,
when I brought you forth from the land
of Egypt.

.Ex 16:33
And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a pot,
and put an omer full
of manna therein, and lay it up before
the LORD, to be kept
for your generations.

.Ex 16:34
As the LORD commanded Moses, so Aaron
laid it up before the
Testimony, to be kept.

.Ex 16:35
And the children of Israel did eat
manna forty years, until
they came to a land inhabited; they
did eat manna, until they
came unto the borders of the land of
Canaan.

.Ex 16:36
Now an omer [is] the tenth [part]
of an ephah.

.Ex 17:1
And all the congregation of the
children of Israel journeyed
from the wilderness of Sin, after their
journeys, according
to the commandment of the LORD, and
pitched in Rephidim: and
[there was] no water for the people to
drink.

.Ex 17:2
Wherefore the people did chide with
Moses, and said, Give us
water that we may drink. And Moses said
unto them, Why chide
ye with me? wherefore do ye tempt the
LORD?

.Ex 17:3
And the people thirsted there for
water; and the people murmured
against Moses, and said, Wherefore [is]
this [that] thou hast
brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us
and our children and
our cattle with thirst?

.Ex 17:4
And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying,
What shall I do unto
this people? they be almost ready to
stone me.

.Ex 17:5
And the LORD said unto Moses, Go on
before the people, and take
with thee of the elders of Israel;
and thy rod, wherewith thou
smotest the river, take in thine hand,
and go.

.Ex 17:6
Behold, I will stand before thee there
upon the rock in Horeb;
and thou shalt smite the rock, and
there shall come water
out of it, that the people may
drink. And Moses did so in the
sight of the elders of Israel.

.Ex 17:7
And he called the name of the place
Massah, and Meribah,
because of the chiding of the children
of Israel, and because
they tempted the LORD, saying, Is the
LORD among us, or not?

.Ex 17:8
Then came Amalek, and fought with
Israel in Rephidim.

.Ex 17:9
And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us
out men, and go out,
fight with Amalek: to morrow I will
stand on the top of the
hill with the rod of God in mine hand.

.Ex 17:10
So Joshua did as Moses had said to him,
and fought with Amalek:
and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to
the top of the hill.

.Ex 17:11
And it came to pass, when Moses held
up his hand, that Israel
prevailed: and when he let down his
hand, Amalek prevailed.

.Ex 17:12
But Moses' hands [were] heavy; and they
took a stone, and put
[it] under him, and he sat thereon;
and Aaron and Hur stayed
up his hands, the one on the one side,
and the other on the
other side; and his hands were steady
until the going down of
the sun.

.Ex 17:13
And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his
people with the edge of
the sword.

.Ex 17:14
And the LORD said unto Moses, Write
this [for] a memorial in
a book, and rehearse [it] in the ears
of Joshua: for I will
utterly put out the remembrance of
Amalek from under heaven.

.Ex 17:15
And Moses built an altar, and called
the name of it
Jehovahnissi:

.Ex 17:16
For he said, Because the LORD hath
sworn [that] the LORD
[will have] war with Amalek from
generation to generation.

.Ex 18:1
When Jethro, the priest of Midian,
Moses' father in law, heard
of all that God had done for Moses,
and for Israel his people,
[and] that the LORD had brought Israel
out of Egypt;

.Ex 18:2
Then Jethro, Moses' father in law,
took Zipporah, Moses' wife,
after he had sent her back,

.Ex 18:3
And her two sons; of which the name of
the one [was] Gershom;
for he said, I have been an alien in
a strange land:

.Ex 18:4
And the name of the other [was]
Eliezer; for the God of my
father, [said he, was] mine help,
and delivered me from the
sword of Pharaoh:

.Ex 18:5
And Jethro, Moses' father in law,
came with his sons and his
wife unto Moses into the wilderness,
where he encamped at the
mount of God:

.Ex 18:6
And he said unto Moses, I thy father
in law Jethro am come
unto thee, and thy wife, and her two
sons with her.

.Ex 18:7
And Moses went out to meet his father
in law, and did obeisance,
and kissed him; and they asked each
other of [their] welfare;
and they came into the tent.

.Ex 18:8
And Moses told his father in law all
that the LORD had done
unto Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for
Israel's sake, [and]
all the travail that had come upon them
by the way, and [how]
the LORD delivered them.

.Ex 18:9
And Jethro rejoiced for all the
goodness which the LORD had
done to Israel, whom he had delivered
out of the hand of the
Egyptians.

.Ex 18:10
And Jethro said, Blessed [be] the LORD,
who hath delivered
you out of the hand of the Egyptians,
and out of the hand of
Pharaoh, who hath delivered the people
from under the hand of
the Egyptians.

.Ex 18:11
Now I know that the LORD [is] greater
than all gods: for in
the thing wherein they dealt proudly
[he was] above them.

.Ex 18:12
And Jethro, Moses' father in law,
took a burnt offering and
sacrifices for God: and Aaron came,
and all the elders of
Israel, to eat bread with Moses' father
in law before God.

.Ex 18:13
And it came to pass on the morrow,
that Moses sat to judge
the people: and the people stood by
Moses from the morning
unto the evening.

.Ex 18:14
And when Moses' father in law saw all
that he did to the people,
he said, What [is] this thing that thou
doest to the people? why
sittest thou thyself alone, and all
the people stand by thee
from morning unto even?

.Ex 18:15
And Moses said unto his father in law,
Because the people come
unto me to inquire of God:

.Ex 18:16
When they have a matter, they come unto
me; and I judge between
one and another, and I do make [them]
know the statutes of God,
and his laws.

.Ex 18:17
And Moses' father in law said unto him,
The thing that thou
doest [is] not good.

.Ex 18:18
Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou,
and this people that
[is] with thee: for this thing [is]
too heavy for thee; thou
art not able to perform it thyself
alone.

.Ex 18:19
Hearken now unto my voice, I will give
thee counsel, and God
shall be with thee: Be thou for the
people to God-ward, that
thou mayest bring the causes unto God:

.Ex 18:20
And thou shalt teach them ordinances
and laws, and shalt shew
them the way wherein they must walk,
and the work that they
must do.

.Ex 18:21
Moreover thou shalt provide out of all
the people able men,
such as fear God, men of truth, hating
covetousness; and place
[such] over them, [to be] rulers of
thousands, [and] rulers
of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and
rulers of tens:

.Ex 18:22
And let them judge the people at all
seasons: and it shall be,
[that] every great matter they shall
bring unto thee, but
every small matter they shall judge:
so shall it be easier
for thyself, and they shall bear [the
burden] with thee.

.Ex 18:23
If thou shalt do this thing, and God
command thee [so], then
thou shalt be able to endure, and all
this people shall also
go to their place in peace.

.Ex 18:24
So Moses hearkened to the voice of his
father in law, and did
all that he had said.

.Ex 18:25
And Moses chose able men out of all
Israel, and made them
heads over the people, rulers of
thousands, rulers of hundreds,
rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.

.Ex 18:26
And they judged the people at all
seasons: the hard causes
they brought unto Moses, but every
small matter they judged
themselves.

.Ex 18:27
And Moses let his father in law depart;
and he went his way
into his own land.

.Ex 19:1
In the third month, when the children
of Israel were gone
forth out of the land of Egypt, the
same day came they [into]
the wilderness of Sinai.

.Ex 19:2
For they were departed from Rephidim,
and were come [to] the
desert of Sinai, and had pitched in
the wilderness; and there
Israel camped before the mount.

.Ex 19:3
And Moses went up unto God, and the
LORD called unto him out
of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt
thou say to the house of
Jacob, and tell the children of
Israel;

.Ex 19:4
Ye have seen what I did unto the
Egyptians, and [how] I bare
you on eagles' wings, and brought you
unto myself.

.Ex 19:5
Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice
indeed, and keep my
covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar
treasure unto me above
all people: for all the earth [is]
mine:

.Ex 19:6
And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of
priests, and an holy
nation. These [are] the words which
thou shalt speak unto the
children of Israel.

.Ex 19:7
And Moses came and called for the
elders of the people,
and laid before their faces all these
words which the LORD
commanded him.

.Ex 19:8
And all the people answered together,
and said, All that the
LORD hath spoken we will do. And Moses
returned the words of
the people unto the LORD.

.Ex 19:9
And the LORD said unto Moses, Lo,
I come unto thee in a thick
cloud, that the people may hear when
I speak with thee, and
believe thee for ever. And Moses told
the words of the people
unto the LORD.

.Ex 19:10
And the LORD said unto Moses, Go unto
the people, and sanctify
them to day and to morrow, and let them
wash their clothes,

.Ex 19:11
And be ready against the third day:
for the third day the LORD
will come down in the sight of all the
people upon mount Sinai.

.Ex 19:12
And thou shalt set bounds unto the
people round about, saying,
Take heed to yourselves, [that ye] go
[not] up into the mount,
or touch the border of it: whosoever
toucheth the mount shall
be surely put to death:

.Ex 19:13
There shall not an hand touch it,
but he shall surely be stoned,
or shot through; whether [it be] beast
or man, it shall not
live: when the trumpet soundeth long,
they shall come up to
the mount.

.Ex 19:14
And Moses went down from the mount unto
the people, and
sanctified the people; and they washed
their clothes.

.Ex 19:15
And he said unto the people, Be ready
against the third day:
come not at [your] wives.

.Ex 19:16
And it came to pass on the third day
in the morning, that there
were thunders and lightnings, and a
thick cloud upon the mount,
and the voice of the trumpet exceeding
loud; so that all the
people that [was] in the camp
trembled.

.Ex 19:17
And Moses brought forth the people out
of the camp to meet
with God; and they stood at the nether
part of the mount.

.Ex 19:18
And mount Sinai was altogether on a
smoke, because the LORD
descended upon it in fire: and the
smoke thereof ascended as
the smoke of a furnace, and the whole
mount quaked greatly.

.Ex 19:19
And when the voice of the trumpet
sounded long, and waxed louder
and louder, Moses spake, and God
answered him by a voice.

.Ex 19:20
And the LORD came down upon mount
Sinai, on the top of the
mount: and the LORD called Moses [up]
to the top of the mount;
and Moses went up.

.Ex 19:21
And the LORD said unto Moses, Go down,
charge the people,
lest they break through unto the LORD
to gaze, and many of
them perish.

.Ex 19:22
And let the priests also, which come
near to the LORD, sanctify
themselves, lest the LORD break forth
upon them.

.Ex 19:23
And Moses said unto the LORD, The
people cannot come up to
mount Sinai: for thou chargedst us,
saying, Set bounds about
the mount, and sanctify it.

.Ex 19:24
And the LORD said unto him, Away,
get thee down, and thou
shalt come up, thou, and Aaron with
thee: but let not the
priests and the people break through
to come up unto the LORD,
lest he break forth upon them.

.Ex 19:25
So Moses went down unto the people,
and spake unto them.

.Ex 20:1
And God spake all these words, saying,

.Ex 20:2
I [am] the LORD thy God, which have
brought thee out of the
land of Egypt, out of the house of
bondage.

.Ex 20:3
Thou shalt have no other gods before
me.

.Ex 20:4
Thou shalt not make unto thee any
graven image, or any likeness
[of any thing] that [is] in heaven
above, or that [is] in the
earth beneath, or that [is] in the
water under the earth:

.Ex 20:5
Thou shalt not bow down thyself to
them, nor serve them: for
I the LORD thy God [am] a jealous God,
visiting the iniquity
of the fathers upon the children unto
the third and fourth
[generation] of them that hate me;

.Ex 20:6
And shewing mercy unto thousands of
them that love me, and
keep my commandments.

.Ex 20:7
Thou shalt not take the name of the
LORD thy God in vain; for
the LORD will not hold him guiltless
that taketh his name in
vain.

.Ex 20:8
Remember the sabbath day, to keep it
holy.

.Ex 20:9
Six days shalt thou labour, and do all
thy work:

.Ex 20:10
But the seventh day [is] the sabbath
of the LORD thy God:
[in it] thou shalt not do any work,
thou, nor thy son, nor thy
daughter, thy manservant, nor thy
maidservant, nor thy cattle,
nor thy stranger that [is] within thy
gates:

.Ex 20:11
For [in] six days the LORD made heaven
and earth, the sea, and
all that in them [is], and rested the
seventh day: wherefore
the LORD blessed the sabbath day,
and hallowed it.

.Ex 20:12
Honour thy father and thy mother:
that thy days may be long
upon the land which the LORD thy God
giveth thee.

.Ex 20:13
Thou shalt not kill.

.Ex 20:14
Thou shalt not commit adultery.

.Ex 20:15
Thou shalt not steal.

.Ex 20:16
Thou shalt not bear false witness
against thy neighbour.

.Ex 20:17
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's
house, thou shalt
not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor
his manservant, nor his
maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass,
nor any thing that [is]
thy neighbour's.

.Ex 20:18
And all the people saw the thunderings,
and the lightnings,
and the noise of the trumpet, and the
mountain smoking: and
when the people saw [it], they removed,
and stood afar off.

.Ex 20:19
And they said unto Moses, Speak thou
with us, and we will hear:
but let not God speak with us, lest we
die.

.Ex 20:20
And Moses said unto the people, Fear
not: for God is come to
prove you, and that his fear may be
before your faces, that
ye sin not.

.Ex 20:21
And the people stood afar off, and
Moses drew near unto the
thick darkness where God [was].

.Ex 20:22
And the LORD said unto Moses, Thus thou
shalt say unto the
children of Israel, Ye have seen that
I have talked with you
from heaven.

.Ex 20:23
Ye shall not make with me gods of
silver, neither shall ye
make unto you gods of gold.

.Ex 20:24
An altar of earth thou shalt make unto
me, and shalt sacrifice
thereon thy burnt offerings, and thy
peace offerings, thy
sheep, and thine oxen: in all places
where I record my name
I will come unto thee, and I will bless
thee.

.Ex 20:25
And if thou wilt make me an altar of
stone, thou shalt not
build it of hewn stone: for if thou
lift up thy tool upon it,
thou hast polluted it.

.Ex 20:26
Neither shalt thou go up by steps unto
mine altar, that thy
nakedness be not discovered thereon.

.Ex 21:1
Now these [are] the judgments which
thou shalt set before them.

.Ex 21:2
If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six
years he shall serve:
and in the seventh he shall go out free
for nothing.

.Ex 21:3
If he came in by himself, he shall go
out by himself: if he
were married, then his wife shall go
out with him.

.Ex 21:4
If his master have given him a wife,
and she have born him sons
or daughters; the wife and her children
shall be her master's,
and he shall go out by himself.

.Ex 21:5
And if the servant shall plainly say,
I love my master, my wife,
and my children; I will not go out
free:

.Ex 21:6
Then his master shall bring him unto
the judges; he shall also
bring him to the door, or unto the door
post; and his master
shall bore his ear through with an aul;
and he shall serve
him for ever.

.Ex 21:7
And if a man sell his daughter to be
a maidservant, she shall
not go out as the menservants do.

.Ex 21:8
If she please not her master, who hath
betrothed her to himself,
then shall he let her be redeemed:
to sell her unto a strange
nation he shall have no power, seeing
he hath dealt deceitfully
with her.

.Ex 21:9
And if he have betrothed her unto his
son, he shall deal with
her after the manner of daughters.

.Ex 21:10
If he take him another [wife]; her
food, her raiment, and her
duty of marriage, shall he not
diminish.

.Ex 21:11
And if he do not these three unto her,
then shall she go out
free without money.

.Ex 21:12
He that smiteth a man, so that he die,
shall be surely put to
death.

.Ex 21:13
And if a man lie not in wait, but God
deliver [him] into his
hand; then I will appoint thee a place
whither he shall flee.

.Ex 21:14
But if a man come presumptuously upon
his neighbour, to slay
him with guile; thou shalt take him
from mine altar, that he
may die.

.Ex 21:15
And he that smiteth his father, or his
mother, shall be surely
put to death.

.Ex 21:16
And he that stealeth a man, and selleth
him, or if he be found
in his hand, he shall surely be put to
death.

.Ex 21:17
And he that curseth his father, or his
mother, shall surely
be put to death.

.Ex 21:18
And if men strive together, and one
smite another with a stone,
or with [his] fist, and he die not,
but keepeth [his] bed:

.Ex 21:19
If he rise again, and walk abroad upon
his staff, then shall
he that smote [him] be quit: only he
shall pay [for] the loss
of his time, and shall cause [him]
to be thoroughly healed.

.Ex 21:20
And if a man smite his servant, or his
maid, with a rod,
and he die under his hand; he shall be
surely punished.

.Ex 21:21
Notwithstanding, if he continue a day
or two, he shall not be
punished: for he [is] his money.

.Ex 21:22
If men strive, and hurt a woman with
child, so that her fruit
depart [from her], and yet no mischief
follow: he shall be
surely punished, according as the
woman's husband will lay
upon him; and he shall pay as the
judges [determine].

.Ex 21:23
And if [any] mischief follow, then thou
shalt give life for
life,

.Ex 21:24
Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for
hand, foot for foot,

.Ex 21:25
Burning for burning, wound for wound,
stripe for stripe.

.Ex 21:26
And if a man smite the eye of his
servant, or the eye of his
maid, that it perish; he shall let him
go free for his eye's
sake.

.Ex 21:27
And if he smite out his manservant's
tooth, or his maidservant's
tooth; he shall let him go free for
his tooth's sake.

.Ex 21:28
If an ox gore a man or a woman, that
they die: then the ox
shall be surely stoned, and his flesh
shall not be eaten;
but the owner of the ox [shall be]
quit.

.Ex 21:29
But if the ox were wont to push with
his horn in time past,
and it hath been testified to his
owner, and he hath not kept
him in, but that he hath killed a man
or a woman; the ox shall
be stoned, and his owner also shall be
put to death.

.Ex 21:30
If there be laid on him a sum of money,
then he shall give
for the ransom of his life whatsoever
is laid upon him.

.Ex 21:31
Whether he have gored a son, or have
gored a daughter, according
to this judgment shall it be done unto
him.

.Ex 21:32
If the ox shall push a manservant or
a maidservant; he shall
give unto their master thirty shekels
of silver, and the ox
shall be stoned.

.Ex 21:33
And if a man shall open a pit, or if
a man shall dig a pit,
and not cover it, and an ox or an ass
fall therein;

.Ex 21:34
The owner of the pit shall make [it]
good, [and] give money
unto the owner of them; and the dead
[beast] shall be his.

.Ex 21:35
And if one man's ox hurt another's,
that he die; then they
shall sell the live ox, and divide the
money of it; and the dead
[ox] also they shall divide.

.Ex 21:36
Or if it be known that the ox hath used
to push in time past,
and his owner hath not kept him in;
he shall surely pay ox
for ox; and the dead shall be his own.

.Ex 22:1
If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep,
and kill it, or sell
it; he shall restore five oxen for an
ox, and four sheep for
a sheep.

.Ex 22:2
If a thief be found breaking up, and
be smitten that he die,
[there shall] no blood [be shed] for
him.

.Ex 22:3
If the sun be risen upon him, [there
shall be] blood [shed]
for him; [for] he should make full
restitution; if he have
nothing, then he shall be sold for his
theft.

.Ex 22:4
If the theft be certainly found in his
hand alive, whether it
be ox, or ass, or sheep; he shall
restore double.

.Ex 22:5
If a man shall cause a field or
vineyard to be eaten, and shall
put in his beast, and shall feed in
another man's field; of
the best of his own field, and of the
best of his own vineyard,
shall he make restitution.

.Ex 22:6
If fire break out, and catch in thorns,
so that the stacks
of corn, or the standing corn, or the
field, be consumed
[therewith]; he that kindled the fire
shall surely make
restitution.

.Ex 22:7
If a man shall deliver unto his
neighbour money or stuff to
keep, and it be stolen out of the man's
house; if the thief
be found, let him pay double.

.Ex 22:8
If the thief be not found, then the
master of the house shall
be brought unto the judges, [to see]
whether he have put his
hand unto his neighbour's goods.

.Ex 22:9
For all manner of trespass, [whether
it be] for ox, for ass,
for sheep, for raiment, [or] for any
manner of lost thing, which
[another] challengeth to be his, the
cause of both parties shall
come before the judges; [and] whom the
judges shall condemn,
he shall pay double unto his
neighbour.

.Ex 22:10
If a man deliver unto his neighbour an
ass, or an ox, or
a sheep, or any beast, to keep; and it
die, or be hurt, or
driven away, no man seeing [it]:

.Ex 22:11
[Then] shall an oath of the LORD be
between them both, that he
hath not put his hand unto his
neighbour's goods; and the owner
of it shall accept [thereof], and he
shall not make [it] good.

.Ex 22:12
And if it be stolen from him, he shall
make restitution unto
the owner thereof.

.Ex 22:13
If it be torn in pieces, [then] let
him bring it [for] witness,
[and] he shall not make good that which
was torn.

.Ex 22:14
And if a man borrow [ought] of his
neighbour, and it be hurt,
or die, the owner thereof [being]
not with it, he shall surely
make [it] good.

.Ex 22:15
[But] if the owner thereof [be] with
it, he shall not make
[it] good: if it [be] an hired [thing],
it came for his hire.

.Ex 22:16
And if a man entice a maid that is not
betrothed, and lie with
her, he shall surely endow her to be
his wife.

.Ex 22:17
If her father utterly refuse to give
her unto him, he shall
pay money according to the dowry of
virgins.

.Ex 22:18
Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.

.Ex 22:19
Whosoever lieth with a beast shall
surely be put to death.

.Ex 22:20
He that sacrificeth unto [any] god,
save unto the LORD only,
he shall be utterly destroyed.

.Ex 22:21
Thou shalt neither vex a stranger,
nor oppress him: for ye
were strangers in the land of Egypt.

.Ex 22:22
Ye shall not afflict any widow, or
fatherless child.

.Ex 22:23
If thou afflict them in any wise,
and they cry at all unto me,
I will surely hear their cry;

.Ex 22:24
And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will
kill you with the sword;
and your wives shall be widows, and
your children fatherless.

.Ex 22:25
If thou lend money to [any of] my
people [that is] poor by thee,
thou shalt not be to him as an usurer,
neither shalt thou lay
upon him usury.

.Ex 22:26
If thou at all take thy neighbour's
raiment to pledge, thou
shalt deliver it unto him by that the
sun goeth down:

.Ex 22:27
For that [is] his covering only, it
[is] his raiment for
his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and
it shall come to pass,
when he crieth unto me, that I will
hear; for I [am] gracious.

.Ex 22:28
Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor
curse the ruler of thy
people.

.Ex 22:29
Thou shalt not delay [to offer] the
first of thy ripe fruits,
and of thy liquors: the firstborn of
thy sons shalt thou give
unto me.

.Ex 22:30
Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen,
[and] with thy sheep:
seven days it shall be with his dam;
on the eighth day thou
shalt give it me.

.Ex 22:31
And ye shall be holy men unto me:
neither shall ye eat [any]
flesh [that is] torn of beasts in the
field; ye shall cast it
to the dogs.

.Ex 23:1
Thou shalt not raise a false report:
put not thine hand with
the wicked to be an unrighteous
witness.

.Ex 23:2
Thou shalt not follow a multitude to
[do] evil; neither
shalt thou speak in a cause to decline
after many to wrest
[judgment]:

.Ex 23:3
Neither shalt thou countenance a poor
man in his cause.

.Ex 23:4
If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his
ass going astray, thou
shalt surely bring it back to him
again.

.Ex 23:5
If thou see the ass of him that hateth
thee lying under his
burden, and wouldest forbear to help
him, thou shalt surely
help with him.

.Ex 23:6
Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of
thy poor in his cause.

.Ex 23:7
Keep thee far from a false matter;
and the innocent and
righteous slay thou not: for I will
not justify the wicked.

.Ex 23:8
And thou shalt take no gift: for the
gift blindeth the wise,
and perverteth the words of the
righteous.

.Ex 23:9
Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger:
for ye know the heart
of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers
in the land of Egypt.

.Ex 23:10
And six years thou shalt sow thy land,
and shalt gather in
the fruits thereof:

.Ex 23:11
But the seventh [year] thou shalt let
it rest and lie still;
that the poor of thy people may eat:
and what they leave the
beasts of the field shall eat. In like
manner thou shalt deal
with thy vineyard, [and] with thy
oliveyard.

.Ex 23:12
Six days thou shalt do thy work, and
on the seventh day thou
shalt rest: that thine ox and thine
ass may rest, and the son
of thy handmaid, and the stranger,
may be refreshed.

.Ex 23:13
And in all [things] that I have said
unto you be circumspect:
and make no mention of the name of
other gods, neither let it
be heard out of thy mouth.

.Ex 23:14
Three times thou shalt keep a feast
unto me in the year.

.Ex 23:15
Thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened
bread: (thou shalt
eat unleavened bread seven days, as I
commanded thee, in the
time appointed of the month Abib;
for in it thou camest out
from Egypt: and none shall appear
before me empty:)

.Ex 23:16
And the feast of harvest, the
firstfruits of thy labours, which
thou hast sown in the field: and the
feast of ingathering,
[which is] in the end of the year,
when thou hast gathered in
thy labours out of the field.

.Ex 23:17
Three times in the year all thy males
shall appear before the
Lord GOD.

.Ex 23:18
Thou shalt not offer the blood of my
sacrifice with leavened
bread; neither shall the fat of my
sacrifice remain until the
morning.

.Ex 23:19
The first of the firstfruits of thy
land thou shalt bring into
the house of the LORD thy God. Thou
shalt not seethe a kid in
his mother's milk.

.Ex 23:20
Behold, I send an Angel before thee,
to keep thee in the way,
and to bring thee into the place which
I have prepared.

.Ex 23:21
Beware of him, and obey his voice,
provoke him not; for he
will not pardon your transgressions:
for my name [is] in him.

.Ex 23:22
But if thou shalt indeed obey his
voice, and do all that I
speak; then I will be an enemy unto
thine enemies, and an
adversary unto thine adversaries.

.Ex 23:23
For mine Angel shall go before thee,
and bring thee in unto
the Amorites, and the Hittites, and
the Perizzites, and the
Canaanites, [and] the Hivites, and the
Jebusites: and I will
cut them off.

.Ex 23:24
Thou shalt not bow down to their gods,
nor serve them, nor
do after their works: but thou shalt
utterly overthrow them,
and quite break down their images.

.Ex 23:25
And ye shall serve the LORD your God,
and he shall bless thy
bread, and thy water; and I will take
sickness away from the
midst of thee.

.Ex 23:26
There shall nothing cast their young,
nor be barren, in thy
land: the number of thy days I will
fulfil.

.Ex 23:27
I will send my fear before thee, and
will destroy all the
people to whom thou shalt come, and I
will make all thine
enemies turn their backs unto thee.

.Ex 23:28
And I will send hornets before thee,
which shall drive out
the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the
Hittite, from before thee.

.Ex 23:29
I will not drive them out from before
thee in one year; lest
the land become desolate, and the beast
of the field multiply
against thee.

.Ex 23:30
By little and little I will drive them
out from before thee,
until thou be increased, and inherit
the land.

.Ex 23:31
And I will set thy bounds from the Red
sea even unto the sea
of the Philistines, and from the desert
unto the river: for
I will deliver the inhabitants of the
land into your hand;
and thou shalt drive them out before
thee.

.Ex 23:32
Thou shalt make no covenant with them,
nor with their gods.

.Ex 23:33
They shall not dwell in thy land,
lest they make thee sin
against me: for if thou serve their
gods, it will surely be
a snare unto thee.

.Ex 24:1
And he said unto Moses, Come up unto
the LORD, thou, and Aaron,
Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the
elders of Israel; and
worship ye afar off.

.Ex 24:2
And Moses alone shall come near the
LORD: but they shall not
come nigh; neither shall the people go
up with him.

.Ex 24:3
And Moses came and told the people all
the words of the LORD,
and all the judgments: and all the
people answered with one
voice, and said, All the words which
the LORD hath said will
we do.

.Ex 24:4
And Moses wrote all the words of the
LORD, and rose up early
in the morning, and builded an altar
under the hill, and twelve
pillars, according to the twelve tribes
of Israel.

.Ex 24:5
And he sent young men of the children
of Israel, which offered
burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace
offerings of oxen unto
the LORD.

.Ex 24:6
And Moses took half of the blood,
and put [it] in basons;
and half of the blood he sprinkled on
the altar.

.Ex 24:7
And he took the book of the covenant,
and read in the audience
of the people: and they said, All that
the LORD hath said will
we do, and be obedient.

.Ex 24:8
And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled
[it] on the people,
and said, Behold the blood of the
covenant, which the LORD
hath made with you concerning all these
words.

.Ex 24:9
Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab,
and Abihu, and seventy
of the elders of Israel:

.Ex 24:10
And they saw the God of Israel: and
[there was] under his feet
as it were a paved work of a sapphire
stone, and as it were
the body of heaven in [his] clearness.

.Ex 24:11
And upon the nobles of the children of
Israel he laid not his
hand: also they saw God, and did eat
and drink.

.Ex 24:12
And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up
to me into the mount, and
be there: and I will give thee tables
of stone, and a law, and
commandments which I have written;
that thou mayest teach them.

.Ex 24:13
And Moses rose up, and his minister
Joshua: and Moses went up
into the mount of God.

.Ex 24:14
And he said unto the elders, Tarry ye
here for us, until we
come again unto you: and, behold,
Aaron and Hur [are] with you:
if any man have any matters to do,
let him come unto them.

.Ex 24:15
And Moses went up into the mount,
and a cloud covered the
mount.

.Ex 24:16
And the glory of the LORD abode upon
mount Sinai, and the cloud
covered it six days: and the seventh
day he called unto Moses
out of the midst of the cloud.

.Ex 24:17
And the sight of the glory of the LORD
[was] like devouring fire
on the top of the mount in the eyes of
the children of Israel.

.Ex 24:18
And Moses went into the midst of the
cloud, and gat him up
into the mount: and Moses was in the
mount forty days and
forty nights.

.Ex 25:1
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

.Ex 25:2
Speak unto the children of Israel,
that they bring me an
offering: of every man that giveth it
willingly with his heart
ye shall take my offering.

.Ex 25:3
And this [is] the offering which ye
shall take of them; gold,
and silver, and brass,

.Ex 25:4
And blue, and purple, and scarlet,
and fine linen, and goats'
[hair],

.Ex 25:5
And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers'
skins, and shittim wood,

.Ex 25:6
Oil for the light, spices for anointing
oil, and for sweet
incense,

.Ex 25:7
Onyx stones, and stones to be set in
the ephod, and in the
breastplate.

.Ex 25:8
And let them make me a sanctuary;
that I may dwell among them.

.Ex 25:9
According to all that I shew thee,
[after] the pattern of the
tabernacle, and the pattern of all the
instruments thereof,
even so shall ye make [it].

.Ex 25:10
And they shall make an ark [of] shittim
wood: two cubits and
a half [shall be] the length thereof,
and a cubit and a half
the breadth thereof, and a cubit and
a half the height thereof.

.Ex 25:11
And thou shalt overlay it with pure
gold, within and without
shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make
upon it a crown of gold
round about.

.Ex 25:12
And thou shalt cast four rings of gold
for it, and put [them]
in the four corners thereof; and two
rings [shall be] in the
one side of it, and two rings in the
other side of it.

.Ex 25:13
And thou shalt make staves [of] shittim
wood, and overlay them
with gold.

.Ex 25:14
And thou shalt put the staves into the
rings by the sides of
the ark, that the ark may be borne with
them.

.Ex 25:15
The staves shall be in the rings of
the ark: they shall not
be taken from it.

.Ex 25:16
And thou shalt put into the ark the
testimony which I shall
give thee.

.Ex 25:17
And thou shalt make a mercy seat [of]
pure gold: two cubits
and a half [shall be] the length
thereof, and a cubit and a
half the breadth thereof.

.Ex 25:18
And thou shalt make two cherubims [of]
gold, [of] beaten work
shalt thou make them, in the two ends
of the mercy seat.

.Ex 25:19
And make one cherub on the one end,
and the other cherub on
the other end: [even] of the mercy seat
shall ye make the
cherubims on the two ends thereof.

.Ex 25:20
And the cherubims shall stretch forth
[their] wings on high,
covering the mercy seat with their
wings, and their faces
[shall look] one to another; toward
the mercy seat shall the
faces of the cherubims be.

.Ex 25:21
And thou shalt put the mercy seat above
upon the ark; and in
the ark thou shalt put the testimony
that I shall give thee.

.Ex 25:22
And there I will meet with thee, and
I will commune with thee
from above the mercy seat, from between
the two cherubims which
[are] upon the ark of the testimony,
of all [things] which I
will give thee in commandment unto the
children of Israel.

.Ex 25:23
Thou shalt also make a table [of]
shittim wood: two cubits
[shall be] the length thereof, and a
cubit the breadth thereof,
and a cubit and a half the height
thereof.

.Ex 25:24
And thou shalt overlay it with pure
gold, and make thereto a
crown of gold round about.

.Ex 25:25
And thou shalt make unto it a border
of an hand breadth round

remain unto the morning, then thou
shalt burn the remainder
with fire: it shall not be eaten,
because it [is] holy.

.Ex 29:35
And thus shalt thou do unto Aaron,
and to his sons, according
to all [things] which I have commanded
thee: seven days shalt
thou consecrate them.

.Ex 29:36
And thou shalt offer every day a
bullock [for] a sin offering
for atonement: and thou shalt cleanse
the altar, when thou
hast made an atonement for it, and thou
shalt anoint it,
to sanctify it.

.Ex 29:37
Seven days thou shalt make an atonement
for the altar, and
sanctify it; and it shall be an altar
most holy: whatsoever
toucheth the altar shall be holy.

.Ex 29:38
Now this [is that] which thou shalt
offer upon the altar;
two lambs of the first year day by day
continually.

.Ex 29:39
The one lamb thou shalt offer in the
morning; and the other
lamb thou shalt offer at even:

.Ex 29:40
And with the one lamb a tenth deal of
flour mingled with the
fourth part of an hin of beaten oil;
and the fourth part of
an hin of wine [for] a drink offering.

.Ex 29:41
And the other lamb thou shalt offer at
even, and shalt do
thereto according to the meat offering
of the morning, and
according to the drink offering
thereof, for a sweet savour,
an offering made by fire unto the
LORD.

.Ex 29:42
[This shall be] a continual burnt
offering throughout your
generations [at] the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation
before the LORD: where I will meet you,
to speak there unto
thee.

.Ex 29:43
And there I will meet with the children
of Israel, and [the
tabernacle] shall be sanctified by my
glory.

.Ex 29:44
And I will sanctify the tabernacle of
the congregation,
and the altar: I will sanctify also
both Aaron and his sons,
to minister to me in the priest's
office.

.Ex 29:45
And I will dwell among the children of
Israel, and will be
their God.

.Ex 29:46
And they shall know that I [am] the
LORD their God, that
brought them forth out of the land of
Egypt, that I may dwell
among them: I [am] the LORD their God.

.Ex 30:1
And thou shalt make an altar to burn
incense upon: [of]
shittim wood shalt thou make it.

.Ex 30:2
A cubit [shall be] the length thereof,
and a cubit the breadth
thereof; foursquare shall it be: and
two cubits [shall be]
the height thereof: the horns thereof
[shall be] of the same.

.Ex 30:3
And thou shalt overlay it with pure
gold, the top thereof,
and the sides thereof round about,
and the horns thereof;
and thou shalt make unto it a crown of
gold round about.

.Ex 30:4
And two golden rings shalt thou make
to it under the crown
of it, by the two corners thereof,
upon the two sides of it
shalt thou make [it]; and they shall
be for places for the
staves to bear it withal.

.Ex 30:5
And thou shalt make the staves [of]
shittim wood, and overlay
them with gold.

.Ex 30:6
And thou shalt put it before the vail
that [is] by the ark
of the testimony, before the mercy seat
that [is] over the
testimony, where I will meet with
thee.

.Ex 30:7
And Aaron shall burn thereon sweet
incense every morning:
when he dresseth the lamps, he shall
burn incense upon it.

.Ex 30:8
And when Aaron lighteth the lamps at
even, he shall burn incense
upon it, a perpetual incense before
the LORD throughout your
generations.

.Ex 30:9
Ye shall offer no strange incense
thereon, nor burnt sacrifice,
nor meat offering; neither shall ye
pour drink offering
thereon.

.Ex 30:10
And Aaron shall make an atonement upon
the horns of it once
in a year with the blood of the sin
offering of atonements:
once in the year shall he make
atonement upon it throughout
your generations: it [is] most holy
unto the LORD.

.Ex 30:11
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

.Ex 30:12
When thou takest the sum of the
children of Israel after their
number, then shall they give every man
a ransom for his soul
unto the LORD, when thou numberest
them; that there be no
plague among them, when [thou]
numberest them.

.Ex 30:13
This they shall give, every one that
passeth among them that
are numbered, half a shekel after the
shekel of the sanctuary:
(a shekel [is] twenty gerahs:) an half
shekel [shall be]
the offering of the LORD.

.Ex 30:14
Every one that passeth among them that
are numbered, from twenty
years old and above, shall give an
offering unto the LORD.

.Ex 30:15
The rich shall not give more, and the
poor shall not give less
than half a shekel, when [they] give
an offering unto the LORD,
to make an atonement for your souls.

.Ex 30:16
And thou shalt take the atonement money
of the children of
Israel, and shalt appoint it for the
service of the tabernacle
of the congregation; that it may be a
memorial unto the children
of Israel before the LORD, to make an
atonement for your souls.

.Ex 30:17
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

.Ex 30:18
Thou shalt also make a laver [of]
brass, and his foot [also
of] brass, to wash [withal]: and thou
shalt put it between the
tabernacle of the congregation and the
altar, and thou shalt
put water therein.

.Ex 30:19
For Aaron and his sons shall wash their
hands and their feet
thereat:

.Ex 30:20
When they go into the tabernacle of
the congregation, they
shall wash with water, that they die
not; or when they come
near to the altar to minister, to burn
offering made by fire
unto the LORD:

.Ex 30:21
So they shall wash their hands and
their feet, that they
die not: and it shall be a statute for
ever to them, [even]
to him and to his seed throughout their
generations.

.Ex 30:22
Moreover the LORD spake unto Moses,
saying,

.Ex 30:23
Take thou also unto thee principal
spices, of pure myrrh
five hundred [shekels], and of sweet
cinnamon half so much,
[even] two hundred and fifty [shekels],
and of sweet calamus
two hundred and fifty [shekels],

.Ex 30:24
And of cassia five hundred [shekels],
after the shekel of the
sanctuary, and of oil olive an hin:

.Ex 30:25
And thou shalt make it an oil of holy
ointment, an ointment
compound after the art of the
apothecary: it shall be an holy
anointing oil.

.Ex 30:26
And thou shalt anoint the tabernacle
of the congregation
therewith, and the ark of the
testimony,

.Ex 30:27
And the table and all his vessels,
and the candlestick and
his vessels, and the altar of incense,

.Ex 30:28
And the altar of burnt offering with
all his vessels, and the
laver and his foot.

.Ex 30:29
And thou shalt sanctify them, that they
may be most holy:
whatsoever toucheth them shall be
holy.

.Ex 30:30
And thou shalt anoint Aaron and his
sons, and consecrate them,
that [they] may minister unto me in
the priest's office.

.Ex 30:31
And thou shalt speak unto the children
of Israel, saying,
This shall be an holy anointing oil
unto me throughout your
generations.

.Ex 30:32
Upon man's flesh shall it not be
poured, neither shall ye make
[any other] like it, after the
composition of it: it [is] holy,
[and] it shall be holy unto you.

.Ex 30:33
Whosoever compoundeth [any] like it,
or whosoever putteth [any]
of it upon a stranger, shall even be
cut off from his people.

.Ex 30:34
And the LORD said unto Moses, Take unto
thee sweet spices,
stacte, and onycha, and galbanum;
[these] sweet spices with
pure frankincense: of each shall there
be a like [weight]:

.Ex 30:35
And thou shalt make it a perfume,
a confection after the art
of the apothecary, tempered together,
pure [and] holy:

.Ex 30:36
And thou shalt beat [some] of it very
small, and put of it
before the testimony in the tabernacle
of the congregation,
where I will meet with thee: it shall
be unto you most holy.

.Ex 30:37
And [as for] the perfume which thou
shalt make, ye shall
not make to yourselves according to
the composition thereof:
it shall be unto thee holy for the
LORD.

.Ex 30:38
Whosoever shall make like unto that,
to smell thereto, shall
even be cut off from his people.

.Ex 31:1
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

.Ex 31:2
See, I have called by name Bezaleel
the son of Uri, the son
of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:

.Ex 31:3
And I have filled him with the spirit
of God, in wisdom,
and in understanding, and in knowledge,
and in all manner of
workmanship,

.Ex 31:4
To devise cunning works, to work in
gold, and in silver,
and in brass,

.Ex 31:5
And in cutting of stones, to set
[them], and in carving of
timber, to work in all manner of
workmanship.

.Ex 31:6
And I, behold, I have given with him
Aholiab, the son of
Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: and in
the hearts of all that
are wise hearted I have put wisdom,
that they may make all
that I have commanded thee;

.Ex 31:7
The tabernacle of the congregation,
and the ark of the
testimony, and the mercy seat that [is]
thereupon, and all
the furniture of the tabernacle,

.Ex 31:8
And the table and his furniture, and
the pure candlestick with
all his furniture, and the altar of
incense,

.Ex 31:9
And the altar of burnt offering with
all his furniture, and
the laver and his foot,

.Ex 31:10
And the cloths of service, and the holy
garments for Aaron
the priest, and the garments of his
sons, to minister in the
priest's office,

.Ex 31:11
And the anointing oil, and sweet
incense for the holy [place]:
according to all that I have commanded
thee shall they do.

.Ex 31:12
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

.Ex 31:13
Speak thou also unto the children of
Israel, saying, Verily
my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it [is]
a sign between me and
you throughout your generations; that
[ye] may know that I
[am] the LORD that doth sanctify you.

.Ex 31:14
Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore;
for it [is] holy unto
you: every one that defileth it shall
surely be put to death:
for whosoever doeth [any] work therein,
that soul shall be
cut off from among his people.

.Ex 31:15
Six days may work be done; but in the
seventh [is] the sabbath
of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever
doeth [any] work in the
sabbath day, he shall surely be put to
death.

.Ex 31:16
Wherefore the children of Israel shall
keep the sabbath,
to observe the sabbath throughout their
generations, [for]
a perpetual covenant.

.Ex 31:17
It [is] a sign between me and the
children of Israel for ever:
for [in] six days the LORD made heaven
and earth, and on the
seventh day he rested, and was
refreshed.

.Ex 31:18
And he gave unto Moses, when he had
made an end of communing
with him upon mount Sinai, two tables
of testimony, tables of
stone, written with the finger of God.

.Ex 32:1
And when the people saw that Moses
delayed to come down out of
the mount, the people gathered
themselves together unto Aaron,
and said unto him, Up, make us gods,
which shall go before us;
for [as for] this Moses, the man that
brought us up out of
the land of Egypt, we wot not what is
become of him.

.Ex 32:2
And Aaron said unto them, Break off
the golden earrings, which
[are] in the ears of your wives, of
your sons, and of your
daughters, and bring [them] unto me.

.Ex 32:3
And all the people brake off the golden
earrings which [were]
in their ears, and brought [them]
unto Aaron.

.Ex 32:4
And he received [them] at their hand,
and fashioned it with
a graving tool, after he had made it
a molten calf: and they
said, These [be] thy gods, O Israel,
which brought thee up
out of the land of Egypt.

.Ex 32:5
And when Aaron saw [it], he built an
altar before it; and
Aaron made proclamation, and said,
To morrow [is] a feast to
the LORD.

.Ex 32:6
And they rose up early on the morrow,
and offered burnt
offerings, and brought peace offerings;
and the people sat
down to eat and to drink, and rose up
to play.

.Ex 32:7
And the LORD said unto Moses, Go,
get thee down; for thy people,
which thou broughtest out of the land
of Egypt, have corrupted
[themselves]:

.Ex 32:8
They have turned aside quickly out of
the way which I commanded
them: they have made them a molten
calf, and have worshipped it,
and have sacrificed thereunto, and
said, These [be] thy gods,
O Israel, which have brought thee up
out of the land of Egypt.

.Ex 32:9
And the LORD said unto Moses, I have
seen this people, and,
behold, it [is] a stiffnecked people:

.Ex 32:10
Now therefore let me alone, that my
wrath may wax hot against
them, and that I may consume them:
and I will make of thee a
great nation.

.Ex 32:11
And Moses besought the LORD his God,
and said, LORD, why doth
thy wrath wax hot against thy people,
which thou hast brought
forth out of the land of Egypt with
great power, and with a
mighty hand?

.Ex 32:12
Wherefore should the Egyptians speak,
and say, For mischief
did he bring them out, to slay them in
the mountains, and to
consume them from the face of the
earth? Turn from thy fierce
wrath, and repent of this evil against
thy people.

.Ex 32:13
Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel,
thy servants, to whom
thou swarest by thine own self, and
saidst unto them, I will
multiply your seed as the stars of
heaven, and all this land
that I have spoken of will I give unto
your seed, and they
shall inherit [it] for ever.

.Ex 32:14
And the LORD repented of the evil which
he thought to do unto
his people.

.Ex 32:15
And Moses turned, and went down from
the mount, and the two
tables of the testimony [were] in his
hand: the tables [were]
written on both their sides; on the
one side and on the other
[were] they written.

.Ex 32:16
And the tables [were] the work of God,
and the writing [was]
the writing of God, graven upon the
tables.

.Ex 32:17
And when Joshua heard the noise of the
people as they shouted,
he said unto Moses, [There is] a noise
of war in the camp.

.Ex 32:18
And he said, [It is] not the voice of
[them that] shout for
mastery, neither [is it] the voice of
[them that] cry for
being overcome: [but] the noise of
[them that] sing do I hear.

.Ex 32:19
And it came to pass, as soon as he came
nigh unto the camp,
that he saw the calf, and the dancing:
and Moses' anger waxed
hot, and he cast the tables out of his
hands, and brake them
beneath the mount.

.Ex 32:20
And he took the calf which they had
made, and burnt [it]
in the fire, and ground [it] to powder,
and strawed [it]
upon the water, and made the children
of Israel drink [of it].

.Ex 32:21
And Moses said unto Aaron, What did
this people unto thee,
that thou hast brought so great a sin
upon them?

.Ex 32:22
And Aaron said, Let not the anger of
my lord wax hot: thou
knowest the people, that they [are set]
on mischief.

.Ex 32:23
For they said unto me, Make us gods,
which shall go before us:
for [as for] this Moses, the man that
brought us up out of
the land of Egypt, we wot not what is
become of him.

.Ex 32:24
And I said unto them, Whosoever hath
any gold, let them break
[it] off. So they gave [it] me: then
I cast it into the fire,
and there came out this calf.

.Ex 32:25
And when Moses saw that the people
[were] naked; (for Aaron
had made them naked unto [their] shame
among their enemies:)

.Ex 32:26
Then Moses stood in the gate of the
camp, and said, Who [is]
on the LORD'S side? [let him come]
unto me. And all the sons
of Levi gathered themselves together
unto him.

.Ex 32:27
And he said unto them, Thus saith the
LORD God of Israel, Put
every man his sword by his side, [and]
go in and out from gate
to gate throughout the camp, and slay
every man his brother,
and every man his companion, and every
man his neighbour.

.Ex 32:28
And the children of Levi did according
to the word of Moses:
and there fell of the people that day
about three thousand men.

.Ex 32:29
For Moses had said, Consecrate
yourselves to day to the LORD,
even every man upon his son, and upon
his brother; that he
may bestow upon you a blessing this
day.

.Ex 32:30
And it came to pass on the morrow,
that Moses said unto the
people, Ye have sinned a great sin:
and now I will go up unto
the LORD; peradventure I shall make an
atonement for your sin.

.Ex 32:31
And Moses returned unto the LORD,
and said, Oh, this people
have sinned a great sin, and have made
them gods of gold.

.Ex 32:32
Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their
