[1]Now the LORDH3068 had saidH559 H8799unto AbramH87, Get thee outH3212 H8798of thy countryH776, and from thy kindredH4138, and from thy father'sH1 houseH1004, unto a landH776 that I will shewH7200 theeH8686:
[2]And I will make of theeH6213 H8799a greatH1419 nationH1471, and I will blessH1288 H8762thee, and makeH1431 thy nameH8034 greatH1431 ; H8762and thou shalt be a blessingH1293:
[3]And I will blessH1288 H8762them that blessH1288 H8764thee, and curseH779 H8799him that cursethH7043 H8764thee: and in thee shall all familiesH4940 of the earthH127 be blessedH1288.[H8738]
[4]So AbramH87 departedH3212 , H8799as the LORDH3068 had spokenH1696 H8765unto him; and LotH3876 wentH3212 H8799with him: and AbramH87 was seventyH7657 H8141and fiveH2568 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he departedH3318 H8800out of HaranH2771.
[5]And AbramH87 tookH3947 H8799SaraiH8297 his wifeH802, and LotH3876 his brother'sH251 sonH1121, and all their substanceH7399 that they had gatheredH7408 , H8804and the soulsH5315 that they had gottenH6213 H8804in HaranH2771; and they went forthH3318 H8799to goH3212 H8800into the landH776 of CanaanH3667; and into the landH776 of CanaanH3667 they cameH935.[H8799]
[6]And AbramH87 passed throughH5674 H8799the landH776 unto the placeH4725 of SichemH7927, unto the plainH436 of MorehH4176. And the CanaaniteH3669 was thenH227 in the landH776.
[7]And the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 H8735unto AbramH87, and saidH559 , H8799Unto thy seedH2233 will I giveH5414 H8799thisH2063 landH776: and there buildedH1129 H8799he an altarH4196 unto the LORDH3068, who appearedH7200 unto himH8737.
[8]And he removedH6275 H8686from thence unto a mountainH2022 on the eastH6924 of BethelH1008, and pitchedH5186 H8799his tentH168, having BethelH1008 on the westH3220, and HaiH5857 on the eastH6924: and there he buildedH1129 H8799an altarH4196 unto the LORDH3068, and calledH7121 H8799upon the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068.
[9]And AbramH87 journeyedH5265 , H8799going onH1980 H8800stillH5265 H8800toward the southH5045.
[10]And there was a famineH7458 in the landH776: and AbramH87 went downH3381 H8799into EgyptH4714 to sojournH1481 H8800there; for the famineH7458 was grievousH3515 in the landH776.
[11]And it came to pass, whenH834 he was come nearH7126 H8689to enterH935 H8800into EgyptH4714, that he saidH559 H8799unto SaraiH8297 his wifeH802, BeholdH2009 nowH4994, I knowH3045 H8804that thou art a fairH3303 womanH802 to look uponH4758:
[12]Therefore it shall come to pass, when the EgyptiansH4713 shall seeH7200 H8799thee, that they shall sayH559 , H8804This is his wifeH802: and they will killH2026 H8804me, but they will save thee aliveH2421.[H8762]
[13]SayH559 , H8798I pray theeH4994, thou art my sisterH269: thatH4616 it may be wellH3190 H8799with me for thy sake; and my soulH5315 shall liveH2421 H8804because of theeH1558.
[14]And it came to pass, that, when AbramH87 was comeH935 H8800into EgyptH4714, the EgyptiansH4713 beheldH7200 H8799the womanH802 that she was veryH3966 fairH3303.
[15]The princesH8269 also of PharaohH6547 sawH7200 H8799her, and commendedH1984 H8762her beforeH413 PharaohH6547: and the womanH802 was takenH3947 H8714into Pharaoh'sH6547 houseH1004.
[16]And he entreatedH3190 AbramH87 wellH3190 H8689for her sake: and he had sheepH6629, and oxenH1241, and he assesH2543, and menservantsH5650, and maidservantsH8198, and she assesH860, and camelsH1581.
[17]And the LORDH3068 plaguedH5060 H8762PharaohH6547 and his houseH1004 with greatH1419 plaguesH5061 because ofH1697 SaraiH8297 Abram'sH87 wifeH802.
[18]And PharaohH6547 calledH7121 H8799AbramH87, and saidH559 , H8799What is this that thou hast doneH6213 H8804unto me? why didst thou not tellH5046 H8689me that she was thy wifeH802?
[19]Why saidst thouH559 , H8804She is my sisterH269? so I might have takenH3947 H8799her to me to wifeH802: now therefore behold thy wifeH802, takeH3947 H8798her, and go thy wayH3212.[H8798]
[20]And PharaohH6547 commandedH6680 H8762his menH582 concerning him: and they sent him awayH7971 , H8762and his wife, and all that he hadH802.
