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 . |
10 : 20 These are the sons of Ham , after their families , after their tongues , in their countries , and in their nations . |
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 . |
10 : 22 The children of Shem ; Elam , and Asshur , and Arphaxad , and Lud , and Aram . |
10 : 23 And the children of Aram ; Uz , and Hul , and Gether , and Mash . |
10 : 24 And Arphaxad begat Salah ; and Salah begat Eber . |
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 . |
10 : 26 And Joktan begat Almodad , and Sheleph , and Hazarmaveth , and Jerah , 10 : 27 And Hadoram , and Uzal , and Diklah , 10 : 28 And Obal , and Abimael , and Sheba , 10 : 29 And Ophir , and Havilah , and Jobab : all these were the sons of Joktan . |
10 : 30 And their dwelling was from Mesha , as thou goest unto Sephar a mount of the east . |
10 : 31 These are the sons of Shem , after their families , after their tongues , in their lands , after their nations . |
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 . |
11 : 1 And the whole earth was of one language , and of one speech . |
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 . |
11 : 3 And they said one to another , Go to , let us make brick , and burn them thoroughly . And they had brick for stone , and slime had they for morter . |
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 . |
11 : 5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower , which the children of men builded . |
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 . |
11 : 7 Go to , let us go down , and there confound their language , that they may not understand one another ’ s speech . |
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 . |
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 . |
11 : 10 These are the generations of Shem : Shem was an hundred years old , and begat Arphaxad two years after the flood : 11 : 11 And Shem lived after he begat Arphaxad five hundred years , and begat sons and daughters . |
11 : 12 And Arphaxad lived five and thirty years , and begat Salah : 11 : 13 And Arphaxad lived after he begat Salah four hundred and three years , and begat sons and daughters . |
11 : 14 And Salah lived thirty years , and begat Eber : 11 : 15 And Salah lived after he begat Eber four hundred and three years , and begat sons and daughters . |
11 : 16 And Eber lived four and thirty years , and begat Peleg : 11 : 17 And Eber lived after he begat Peleg four hundred and thirty years , and begat sons and daughters . |
11 : 18 And Peleg lived thirty years , and begat Reu : 11 : 19 And Peleg lived after he begat Reu two hundred and nine years , and begat sons and daughters . |
11 : 20 And Reu lived two and thirty years , and begat Serug : 11 : 21 And Reu lived after he begat Serug two hundred and seven years , and begat sons and daughters . |
11 : 22 And Serug lived thirty years , and begat Nahor : 11 : 23 And Serug lived after he begat Nahor two hundred years , and begat sons and daughters . |
11 : 24 And Nahor lived nine and twenty years , and begat Terah : 11 : 25 And Nahor lived after he begat Terah an hundred and nineteen years , and begat sons and daughters . |
11 : 26 And Terah lived seventy years , and begat Abram , Nahor , and Haran . |
11 : 27 Now these are the generations of Terah : Terah begat Abram , Nahor , and Haran ; and Haran begat Lot . |
11 : 28 And Haran died before his father Terah in the land of his nativity , in Ur of the Chaldees . |
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 . |
11 : 30 But Sarai was barren ; she had no child . |
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 . |
11 : 32 And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years : and Terah died in Haran . |
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 : 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 : 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 . |
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 . |
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 . |
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 . |
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 . |
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 . |
12 : 9 And Abram journeyed , going on still toward the south . |
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 . |
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 : 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 . |
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 . |
12 : 14 And it came to pass , that , when Abram was come into Egypt , the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair . |
12 : 15 The princes also of Pharaoh saw her , and commended her before Pharaoh : and the woman was taken into Pharaoh ’ s house . |
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 . |
12 : 17 And the LORD plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai Abram ’ s wife . |
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 ? 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 . |
12 : 20 And Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him : and they sent him away , and his wife , and all that he had . |
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 . |
13 : 2 And Abram was very rich in cattle , in silver , and in gold . |
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 ; 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 . |
13 : 5 And Lot also , which went with Abram , had flocks , and herds , and tents . |
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 . |
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 . |
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 . |
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 . |
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 . |
13 : 11 Then Lot chose him all the plain of Jordan ; and Lot journeyed east : and they separated themselves the one from the other . |
13 : 12 Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan , and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain , and pitched his tent toward Sodom . |
13 : 13 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly . |
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 : 13 : 15 For all the land which thou seest , to thee will I give it , and to thy seed for ever . |
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 . |
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 . |
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 . |
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 ; 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 . |
14 : 3 All these were joined together in the vale of Siddim , which is the salt sea . |
14 : 4 Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer , and in the thirteenth year they rebelled . |
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 Emins in Shaveh Kiriathaim , 14 : 6 And the Horites in their mount Seir , unto Elparan , which is by the wilderness . |
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 . |
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 ; 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 . |
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 . |
14 : 11 And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah , and all their victuals , and went their way . |
14 : 12 And they took Lot , Abram ’ s brother ’ s son , who dwelt in Sodom , and his goods , and departed . |
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 . |
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 . |
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 . |
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 . |
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 . |
14 : 18 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine : and he was the priest of the most high God . |
14 : 19 And he blessed him , and said , Blessed be Abram of the most high God , possessor of heaven and earth : 14 : 20 And blessed be the most high God , which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand . And he gave him tithes of all . |
14 : 21 And the king of Sodom said unto Abram , Give me the persons , and take the goods to thyself . |
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 , |
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 : 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 . |
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 . |
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 ? |
15 : 3 And Abram said , Behold , to me thou hast given no seed : and , lo , one born in my house is mine heir . |
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 . |
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 . |
15 : 6 And he believed in the LORD ; and he counted it to him for righteousness . |
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 . |
15 : 8 And he said , LORD God , whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it ? 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 . |
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 . |
15 : 11 And when the fowls came down upon the carcases , Abram drove them away . |
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 . |
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 ; 15 : 14 And also that nation , whom they shall serve , will I judge : and afterward shall they come out with great substance . |
15 : 15 And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace ; thou shalt be buried in a good old age . |
