<3423 yarash > the land <0776 >erets > wherein thou art a stranger <4033

maguwr >, which <0834 >aher > God <0430 >elohiym > gave <5414 nathan > unto

Abraham <85>.

5 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > sent <7971 shalach > away Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob

Laban >, son <1121 ben > of Bethuel <1328 B@thuw>el > the Syrian <0761

Ya<aqob > and Esau's <6215 <Esav > mother <0517 >em >.

6. When Esau <6215 <Esav > saw <7200 ra>ah > that Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > had

blessed <1288 barak > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, and sent <7971 shalach > him

away to Padanaram <6307 Paddan >, to take <3947 laqach > him a wife <0802

he gave him a charge <6680 tsavah >, saying <0559 >amar >, Thou shalt not

take <3947 laqach > a wife <0802 >ishshah > of the daughters <1363 gobahh >

of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >;

7 And that Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > obeyed <8085 shama< > his father <1> and

his mother <0517 >em >, and was gone <3212 yalak > to Padanaram <6307 Paddan

8 And Esau <6215 <Esav > seeing <7200 ra>ah > that the daughters <1363

gobahh > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an > pleased not Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > his

father <1>;

9 Then went <3212 yalak > Esau <6215 <Esav > unto Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l

Nebajoth <5032 N@bayowth >, to be his wife <0802 >ishshah >.

10. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > went <3318 yatsa> > out from Beersheba <0884

B@>er Sheba< >, and went <3212 yalak > toward Haran <2771 Charan >.

11 And he lighted <6293 paga< > upon a certain place <4725 maqowm >, and

tarried <3885 luwn > there <8033 sham > all <3885 luwn > night, because <3588

kiy > the sun <8121 shemesh > was set <0935 bow> >; and he took <3947 laqach

for] his pillows <4763 m@ra>ashah >, and lay <7901 shakab > down in that

place <4725 maqowm > to sleep <7901 shakab >.

12 And he dreamed <2492 chalam >, and behold <2009 hinneh > a ladder <5551

cullam > set <5324 natsab > up on the earth <0776 >erets >, and the top <7218

ro>sh > of it reached <5060 naga< > to heaven <8064 shamayim >: and behold

<2009 hinneh > the angels <4397 mal>ak > of God <0430 >elohiym > ascending

<5927 <alah > and descending <3381 yarad > on it.

13 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > stood <5324 natsab >

above <5921 <al > it, and said <0559 >amar >, I [am] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

God <0430 >elohiym > of Abraham <85> thy father <1>, and the God <0430

liest <7901 shakab >, to thee will I give <5414 nathan > it, and to thy seed

<2233 zera< >;

14 And thy seed <2233 zera< > shall be as the dust <6083 <aphar > of the

earth <0776 >erets >, and thou shalt spread <6555 parats > abroad <6555

parats > to the west <3220 yam >, and to the east <6924 qedem >, and to the

north <6828 tsaphown >, and to the south <5045 negeb >: and in thee and in

thy seed <2233 zera< > shall all <3605 kol > the families <4940 mishpachah >

of the earth <0127 >adamah > be blessed <1288 barak >.

15 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, I [am] with thee, and will keep <8104 shamar

yalak >, and will bring <7725 shuwb > thee again <7725 shuwb > into <0413 >el

thee, until I have done <6213 <asah > [that] which <0834 >aher > I have

spoken <1696 dabar > to thee of.

16. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > awaked <3364 yaqats > out of his sleep <8142

shehah >, and he said <0559 >amar >, Surely <0403 >aken > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > is in this <2088 zeh > place <4725 maqowm >; and I knew <3045 yada<

17 And he was afraid <3372 yare> >, and said <0559 >amar >, How <4100 mah >

dreadful <3372 yare> > [is] this <2088 zeh > place <4725 maqowm >! this <2088

zeh > [is] none <0369 >ayin > other but the house <1004 bayith > of God <0430

shamayim >.

18 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > rose <7925 shakam > up early <7925 shakam > in

the morning <1242 boqer >, and took <3947 laqach > the stone <68> that he had

put <7760 suwm > [for] his pillows <4763 m@ra>ashah >, and set <7760 suwm >

it up [for] a pillar <4676 matstsebah >, and poured <3332 yatsaq > oil <8081

shemen > upon the top <7218 ro>sh > of it.

19 And he called <7121 qara> > the name <8034 shem > of that place <4725

maqowm > Bethel <1008 Beyth->El >: but the name <8034 shem > of that city

<5892 <iyr > [was called] Luz <3870 Luwz > at the first <7223 ri>shown >.

20 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > vowed <5087 nadar > a vow <5088 neder >, saying

<0559 >amar >, If <0518 >im > God <0430 >elohiym > will be with me, and will

keep <8104 shamar > me in this <2088 zeh > way <1870 derek > that I go <1980

halak >, and will give <5414 nathan > me bread <3899 lechem > to eat <0398

21 So that I come <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > to my father's <1> house

<1004 bayith > in peace <7965 shalowm >; then shall the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

be my God <0430 >elohiym >:

22 And this <2063 zo>th > stone <68>, which <0834 >aher > I have set <7760

suwm > [for] a pillar <4676 matstsebah >, shall be God's <0430 >elohiym >

house <1004 bayith >: and of all <3605 kol > that thou shalt give <5414

nathan > me I will surely give the tenth <6237 <asar > unto thee.

Genesis 29

1. Then Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > went on his journey, and came <3212 yalak >

into <0413 >el > the land <0776 >erets > of the people <1121 ben > of the

east <6924 qedem >.

2 And he looked <7200 ra>ah >, and behold <2009 hinneh > a well <0875 @>er >

in the field <7704 sadeh >, and, lo <2009 hinneh >, there <8033 sham > [were]

three <7969 shalowsh > flocks <5739 <eder > of sheep <6629 tso>n > lying

<7257 rabats > by it; for out of that well <0875 @>er > they watered <8248

shaqah > the flocks <5739 <eder >: and a great <1419 gadowl > stone <68>

[was] upon the well's <0875 @>er > mouth <6310 peh >.

3 And thither <8033 sham > were all <3605 kol > the flocks <5739 <eder >

gathered <0622 >acaph >: and they rolled <1556 galal > the stone <68> from

the well's <0875 @>er > mouth <6310 peh >, and watered <8248 shaqah > the

sheep <6629 tso>n >, and put <7725 shuwb > the stone <68> again <7725 shuwb >

upon the well's <0875 @>er > mouth <6310 peh > in his place <4725 maqowm >.

4 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar > unto them, My brethren <0251

>ach >, whence <0370 >aiyn > [be] ye? And they said <0559 >amar >, Of Haran

<2771 Charan > [are] we.

5 And he said <0559 >amar > unto them, Know <3045 yada< > ye Laban <3837

Laban > the son <1121 ben > of Nahor <5152 Q@riyowth Nachowr >? And they

said <0559 >amar >, We know <3045 yada< > [him].

6 And he said <0559 >amar > unto them, [Is] he well <7965 shalowm >? And

they said <0559 >amar >, [He is] well <7965 shalowm >: and, behold <2009

hinneh >, Rachel <7354 Rachel > his daughter <1323 bath > cometh <0935 bow> >

with the sheep <6629 tso>n >.

7 And he said <0559 >amar >, Lo <2005 hen >, [it is] yet <5750 <owd > high

<1419 gadowl > day <3117 yowm >, neither <3808 lo> > [is it] time <6256 <eth

water <4325 mayim > ye the sheep <6629 tso>n >, and go <3212 yalak > [and]

feed <7462 ra<ah > [them].

8 And they said <0559 >amar >, We cannot, until <5704 <ad > all <3605 kol >

the flocks <5739 <eder > be gathered <0622 >acaph > together, and [till] they

roll <1556 galal > the stone <68> from the well's <0875 @>er > mouth <6310

peh >; then we water <4325 mayim > the sheep <6629 tso>n >.

9. And while he yet <5750 <owd > spake <1696 dabar > with them, Rachel <7354

Rachel > came <0935 bow> > with her father's <1> sheep <6629 tso>n >: for she

kept <7462 ra<ah > them.

10 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when <0834 >aher > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob

> saw <7200 ra>ah > Rachel <7354 Rachel > the daughter <1323 bath > of Laban

<3837 Laban > his mother's <0517 >em > brother <0251 >ach >, and the sheep

<6629 tso>n > of Laban <3837 Laban > his mother's <0517 >em > brother <0251

>ach >, that Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > went <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash >,

and rolled <1556 galal > the stone <68> from the well's <0875 @>er > mouth

<6310 peh >, and watered <8248 shaqah > the flock <6629 tso>n > of Laban

<3837 Laban > his mother's <0517 >em > brother <0251 >ach >.

11 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > kissed <5401 nashaq > Rachel <7354 Rachel >,

and lifted <5375 nasa> > up his voice <6963 qowl >, and wept <1058 bakah >.

12 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > told <5046 nagad > Rachel <7354 Rachel > that

he [was] her father's <1> brother <0251 >ach >, and that he [was] Rebekah's

<7259 Ribqah > son <1121 ben >: and she ran <7323 ruwts > and told <5046

nagad > her father <1>.

13 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when Laban <3837 Laban > heard <8085

shama< > the tidings <8088 shema< > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > his sister's

<0269 >achowth > son <1121 ben >, that he ran <7323 ruwts > to meet <7125

qir>ah > him, and embraced <2263 chabaq > him, and kissed <5401 nashaq > him,

and brought <0935 bow> > him to his house <1004 bayith >. And he told <5608

caphar > Laban <3837 Laban > all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el-leh > things

<1697 dabar >.

14 And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar > to him, Surely <0389 >ak >

thou [art] my bone <6106 <etsem > and my flesh <1320 basar >. And he abode

<3427 yashab > with him the space <3117 yowm > of a month <2320 chodesh >.

15. And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar > unto Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >,

Because <3588 kiy > thou [art] my brother <0251 >ach >, shouldest thou

therefore serve <5647 <abad > me for nought <2600 chinnam >? tell <5046 nagad

16 And Laban <3837 Laban > had two <8147 sh@nayim > daughters <1363 gobahh

>: the name <8034 shem > of the elder <1419 gadowl > [was] Leah <3812 Le>ah

Rachel >.

17 Leah <3812 Le>ah > [was] tender <7390 rak > eyed <5869 <ayin >; but

Rachel <7354 Rachel > was beautiful and well <3303 yapheh > favoured <4758

mar>eh >.

18 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > loved <0157 >ahab > Rachel <7354 Rachel >; and

said <0559 >amar >, I will serve <5647 <abad > thee seven <7651 sheba< >

years <8141 shaneh > for Rachel <7354 Rachel > thy younger <6996 qatan >

daughter <1323 bath >.

19 And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar >, [It is] better <2896 towb >

that I give <5414 nathan > her to thee, than that I should give <5414 nathan

> her to another <0312 >acher > man <0376 >iysh >: abide <3427 yashab > with

me.

20 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > served <5647 <abad > seven <7651 sheba< > years

<8141 shaneh > for Rachel <7354 Rachel >; and they seemed unto him [but] a

few <0259 >echad > days <3117 yowm >, for the love <0160 >ahabah > he had to

her.

21 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar > unto Laban <3837 Laban >,

Give <3051 yahab > [me] my wife <0802 >ishshah >, for my days <3117 yowm >

are fulfilled <4390 male> >, that I may go <0935 bow> > in unto her.

22 And Laban <3837 Laban > gathered <0622 >acaph > together all <3605 kol >

the men <0582 >enowsh > of the place <4725 maqowm >, and made <6213 <asah > a

feast <4960 mishteh >.

23 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the evening <6153 <ereb >, that he

took <3947 laqach > Leah <3812 Le>ah > his daughter <1323 bath >, and brought

<0935 bow> > her to him; and he went <0935 bow> > in unto her.

24 And Laban <3837 Laban > gave <5414 nathan > unto his daughter <1323 bath

> Leah <3812 Le>ah > Zilpah <2153 Zilpah > his maid <8198 shiphchah > [for]

an handmaid <8198 shiphchah >.

25 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, that in the morning <1242 boqer >,

behold <2009 hinneh >, it [was] Leah <3812 Le>ah >: and he said <0559 >amar >

to Laban <3837 Laban >, What <4100 mah > [is] this <2063 zo>th > thou hast

done <6213 <asah > unto me? did not I serve <5647 <abad > with thee for

Rachel <7354 Rachel >? wherefore then hast thou beguiled <7411 ramah > me?

26 And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar >, It must not be so <3651 ken >

done <6213 <asah > in our country <4725 maqowm >, to give <5414 nathan > the

younger <6810 tsa<iyr > before <6440 paniym > the firstborn <1067 bekiyrah >.

27 Fulfil <4390 male> > her week <7620 shabuwa< >, and we will give <5414

nathan > thee this <2063 zo>th > also <1571 gam > for the service <5656

<abodah > which <0834 >aher > thou shalt serve <5647 <abad > with me yet

<5750 <owd > seven <7651 sheba< > other <0312 >acher > years <8141 shaneh >.

28 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > did <6213 <asah > so <3651 ken >, and fulfilled

<4390 male> > her week <7620 shabuwa< >: and he gave <5414 nathan > him

Rachel <7354 Rachel > his daughter <1323 bath > to wife <0802 >ishshah >

also.

29 And Laban <3837 Laban > gave <5414 nathan > to Rachel <7354 Rachel > his

daughter <1323 bath > Bilhah <1090 Bilhah > his handmaid <8198 shiphchah > to

be her maid <8198 shiphchah >.

30 And he went <0935 bow> > in also <1571 gam > unto Rachel <7354 Rachel >,

and he loved <0157 >ahab > also <1571 gam > Rachel <7354 Rachel > more than

Leah <3812 Le>ah >, and served <5647 <abad > with him yet <5750 <owd > seven

<7651 sheba< > other <0312 >acher > years <8141 shaneh >.

31. And when the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > saw <7200 ra>ah > that Leah <3812

Le>ah > [was] hated <8130 sane> >, he opened <6605 pathach > her womb <7358

rechem >: but Rachel <7354 Rachel > [was] barren <6135 <aqar >.

32 And Leah <3812 Le>ah > conceived <2030 hareh >, and bare <3205 yalad > a

son <1121 ben >, and she called <7121 qara> > his name <8034 shem > Reuben

<7205 R@>uwben >: for she said <0559 >amar >, Surely <3588 kiy > the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > hath looked <7200 ra>ah > upon my affliction <6040 <oniy >;

now <6258 <attah > therefore <3588 kiy > my husband <0376 >iysh > will love

<0157 >ahab > me.

33 And she conceived <2030 hareh > again <5750 <owd >, and bare <3205 yalad

<3068 Y@hovah > hath heard <8085 shama< > that I [was] hated <8130 sane> >,

he hath therefore <1571 gam > given <5414 nathan > me this <2088 zeh > [son]

also <1571 gam >: and she called <7121 qara> > his name <8034 shem > Simeon

<8095 Shim<own >.

34 And she conceived <2030 hareh > again <5750 <owd >, and bare <3205 yalad

my husband <0376 >iysh > be joined <3867 lavah > unto me, because <3588 kiy >

I have born <3205 yalad > him three <7969 shalowsh > sons <1121 ben >:

therefore was his name <8034 shem > called <7121 qara> > Levi <3878 Leviy >.

35 And she conceived <2030 hareh > again <5750 <owd >, and bare <3205 yalad

yadah > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >: therefore she called <7121 qara> > his name

<8034 shem > Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >; and left <5975 <amad > bearing <3205

yalad >.

Genesis 30

1. And when Rachel <7354 Rachel > saw <7200 ra>ah > that she bare <3205

yalad > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > no <0369 >ayin > children, Rachel <7354 Rachel

unto Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, Give <3051 yahab > me children <1121 ben >, or

else <0369 >ayin > I die <4191 muwth >.

2 And Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob > anger <0639 >aph > was kindled <2734 charah >

against Rachel <7354 Rachel >: and he said <0559 >amar >, [Am] I in God's

mana< > from thee the fruit <6529 p@riy > of the womb <0990 beten >?

3 And she said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2009 hinneh > my maid <0519 >amah >

Bilhah <1090 Bilhah >, go <0935 bow> > in unto her; and she shall bear <3205

yalad > upon my knees <1290 berek >, that I may also <1571 gam > have

children <1129 banah > by her.

4 And she gave <5414 nathan > him Bilhah <1090 Bilhah > her handmaid <8198

shiphchah > to wife <0802 >ishshah >: and Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > went <0935

5 And Bilhah <1090 Bilhah > conceived <2030 hareh >, and bare <3205 yalad >

Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > a son <1121 ben >.

6 And Rachel <7354 Rachel > said <0559 >amar >, God <0430 >elohiym > hath

judged <1777 diyn > me, and hath also <1571 gam > heard <8085 shama< > my

voice <6963 qowl >, and hath given <5414 nathan > me a son <1121 ben >:

therefore called <7121 qara> > she his name <8034 shem > Dan <1835 Dan >.

7 And Bilhah <1090 Bilhah > Rachel's <7354 Rachel > maid <8198 shiphchah >

conceived <2030 hareh > again <5750 <owd >, and bare <3205 yalad > Jacob

27 And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar > unto him, I pray <4994 na> >

28 And he said <0559 >amar >, Appoint <5344 naqab > me thy wages <7939 sakar

29 And he said <0559 >amar > unto him, Thou knowest <3045 yada< > how I have

served <5647 <abad > thee, and how thy cattle <4735 miqneh > was with me.

30 For [it was] little <4592 m@<at > which <0834 >aher > thou hadst before

31 And he said <0559 >amar >, What <4100 mah > shall I give <5414 nathan >

33 So shall my righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > answer <6030 <anah > for me in

34 And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2005 hen >, I would

<3863 luw> > it might be according to thy word <1697 dabar >.

35 And he removed <5493 cuwr > that day <3117 yowm > the he goats <8495

all <3605 kol > the she goats <5795 <ez > that were speckled <5348 naqod >

sheep <3775 keseb >, and gave <5414 nathan > [them] into the hand <3027 yad >

of his sons <1121 ben >.

36 And he set <7760 suwm > three <7969 shalowsh > days <3117 yowm >' journey

Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > fed <7462 ra<ah > the rest <3498 yathar > of Laban's

<3837 Laban > flocks <6629 tso>n >.

37. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > took <3947 laqach > him rods <4731 maqqel > of

green <3892 lach > poplar <3839 libneh >, and of the hazel <3869 luwz > and

38 And he set <3322 yatsag > the rods <4731 maqqel > which <0834 >aher > he

had pilled <6478 patsal > before <5227 nokach > the flocks <6629 tso>n > in

39 And the flocks <6629 tso>n > conceived <3179 yacham > before <0413 >el >

the rods <4731 maqqel >, and brought <3205 yalad > forth <3209 yillowd >

cattle <6629 tso>n > ringstraked <6124 <aqod >, speckled <5348 naqod >, and

spotted <2921 tala> >.

40 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > did separate <6504 parad > the lambs <3775

41 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, whensoever <3605 kol > the stronger

<7194 qashar > cattle <6629 tso>n > did conceive <3179 yacham >, that Jacob

<5869 <ayin > of the cattle <6629 tso>n > in the gutters <7298 rahat >, that

they might conceive <3179 yacham > among the rods <4731 maqqel >.

42 But when the cattle <6629 tso>n > were feeble <5848 <ataph >, he put

<7760 suwm > [them] not in: so the feebler <5848 <ataph > were Laban's <3837

43 And the man <0376 >iysh > increased <6555 parats > exceedingly <3966

maidservants <8198 shiphchah >, and menservants <5650 <ebed >, and camels

<1581 gamal >, and asses <2543 chamowr >.

Genesis 31

1. And he heard <8085 shama< > the words <1697 dabar > of Laban's <3837

Laban > sons <1121 ben >, saying <0559 >amar >, Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > hath

[that] which <0834 >aher > [was] our father's <1> hath he gotten <4069

madduwa< > all <3605 kol > this <2088 zeh > glory <3519 kabowd >.

2 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > beheld <7200 ra>ah > the countenance <6440

paniym > of Laban <3837 Laban >, and, behold <2009 hinneh >, it [was] not

toward him as before.

3 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob

to thy kindred <4138 mowledeth >; and I will be with thee.

4 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > sent <7971 shalach > and called <7121 qara> >

Rachel <7354 Rachel > and Leah <3812 Le>ah > to the field <7704 sadeh > unto

his flock <6629 tso>n >,

5 And said <0559 >amar > unto them, I see <7200 ra>ah > your father's <1>

countenance <6440 paniym >, that it [is] not toward me as before; but the God

<0430 >elohiym > of my father <1> hath been <1961 hayah > with me.

6 And ye know <3045 yada< > that with all <3605 kol > my power <3581 koach >

I have served <5647 <abad > your father <1>.

7 And your father <1> hath deceived <2048 hathal > me, and changed <2498

chalaph > my wages <4909 maskoreth > ten <6235 <eser > times <4489 moneh >;

but God <0430 >elohiym > suffered <5414 nathan > him not to hurt <7489 ra<a<

8 If <0518 >im > he said <0559 >amar > thus <3541 koh >, The speckled <5348

he said <0559 >amar > thus <3541 koh >, The ringstraked <6124 <aqod > shall

be thy hire <7937 shakar >; then bare <3205 yalad > all <3605 kol > the

cattle <6629 tso>n > ringstraked <6124 <aqod >.

9 Thus God <0430 >elohiym > hath taken <5337 natsal > away the cattle <4735

miqneh > of your father <1>, and given <5414 nathan > [them] to me.

10 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass at the time <6256 <eth > that the

cattle <6629 tso>n > conceived <3179 yacham >, that I lifted <5375 nasa> > up

mine eyes <5869 <ayin >, and saw <7200 ra>ah > in a dream <2472 chalowm >,

and, behold <2009 hinneh >, the rams <6260 <attuwd > which leaped <5927 <alah

11 And the angel <4397 mal>ak > of God <0430 >elohiym > spake <0559 >amar >

unto me in a dream <2472 chalowm >, [saying], Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >: And I

said <0559 >amar >, Here <2009 hinneh > [am] I.

12 And he said <0559 >amar >, Lift <5375 nasa> > up now <4994 na> > thine

ringstraked <6124 <aqod >, speckled <5348 naqod >, and grisled <1261 barod >:

for I have seen <7200 ra>ah > all <3605 kol > that Laban <3837 Laban > doeth

13 I [am] the God <0410 >el > of Bethel <1008 Beyth->El >, where <0834 >aher

<2063 zo>th > land <0776 >erets >, and return <7725 shuwb > unto the land

<0776 >erets > of thy kindred <4138 mowledeth >.

14 And Rachel <7354 Rachel > and Leah <3812 Le>ah > answered <6030 <anah >

and said <0559 >amar > unto him, [Is there] yet <5750 <owd > any portion

<2506 cheleq > or inheritance <5159 nachalah > for us in our father's <1>

house <1004 bayith >?

15 Are we not counted <2803 chashab > of him strangers <5237 nokriy >? for

he hath sold <4376 makar > us, and hath quite devoured <0398 >akal > also

<1571 gam > our money <3701 keceph >.

16 For all <3605 kol > the riches <6239 <osher > which <0834 >aher > God

<0430 >elohiym > hath said <0559 >amar > unto thee, do <6213 <asah >.

17. Then Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > rose <6965 quwm > up, and set <5375 nasa> >

his sons <1121 ben > and his wives <0802 >ishshah > upon camels <1581 gamal

18 And he carried <5090 nahag > away all <3605 kol > his cattle <4735 miqneh

land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >.

19 And Laban <3837 Laban > went <1980 halak > to shear <1494 gazaz > his

sheep <6629 tso>n >: and Rachel <7354 Rachel > had stolen <1589 ganab > the

images <8655 t@raphiym > that [were] her father's <1>.

20 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > stole <1589 ganab > away unawares to Laban

<3837 Laban > the Syrian <0761 >Arammiy >, in that he told <5046 nagad > him

not that he fled <1272 barach >.

21 So he fled <1272 barach > with all <3605 kol > that he had; and he rose

<6965 quwm > up, and passed <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > the river <5104

nahar >, and set <7760 suwm > his face <6440 paniym > [toward] the mount

22 And it was told <5046 nagad > Laban <3837 Laban > on the third <7992

sh@liyshiy > day <3117 yowm > that Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > was fled <1272

23 And he took <3947 laqach > his brethren <0251 >ach > with him, and

pursued <7291 radaph > after <0310 >achar > him seven <7651 sheba< > days

<3117 yowm >' journey <1870 derek >; and they overtook <1692 dabaq > him in

24 And God <0430 >elohiym > came <0935 bow> > to Laban <3837 Laban > the

Syrian <0761 >Arammiy > in a dream <2472 chalowm > by night <3915 layil >,

25. Then Laban <3837 Laban > overtook <5381 nasag > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >.

Now Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > had pitched <8628 taqa< > his tent <0168 >ohel > in

pitched <8628 taqa< > in the mount <2022 har > of Gilead <1568 Gil<ad >.

26 And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar > to Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, What

<4100 mah > hast thou done <6213 <asah >, that thou hast stolen <1589 ganab >

away unawares to me, and carried <5090 nahag > away my daughters <1363 gobahh

27 Wherefore <4100 mah > didst thou flee <1272 barach > away secretly

harp <3658 kinnowr >?

28 And hast not suffered <5203 natash > me to kiss <5401 nashaq > my sons

<1121 ben > and my daughters <1363 gobahh >? thou hast now <6258 <attah >

done foolishly <5528 cakal > in [so] doing <6213 <asah >.

29 It is in the power <0410 >el > of my hand <3027 yad > to do <6213 <asah >

you hurt <7451 ra< >: but the God <0430 >elohiym > of your father <1> spake

<0559 >amar > unto me yesternight <0570 >emesh >, saying <0559 >amar >, Take

thou heed <8104 shamar > that thou speak <1696 dabar > not to Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob > either good <2896 towb > or <5704 <ad > bad <7451 ra< >.

30 And now <6258 <attah >, [though] thou wouldest needs be gone <1980 halak

<1> house <1004 bayith >, [yet] wherefore <4100 mah > hast thou stolen <1589

ganab > my gods <0430 >elohiym >?

31 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > answered <6030 <anah > and said <0559 >amar >

to Laban <3837 Laban >, Because <3588 kiy > I was afraid <3372 yare> >: for I

said <0559 >amar >, Peradventure <6435 pen > thou wouldest take <1497 gazal >

by force <1497 gazal > thy daughters <1363 gobahh > from me.

32 With whomsoever <0834 >aher > thou findest <4672 matsa> > thy gods <0430

brethren <0251 >ach > discern <5234 nakar > thou what <4100 mah > [is] thine

with me, and take <3947 laqach > [it] to thee. For Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > knew

<3045 yada< > not that Rachel <7354 Rachel > had stolen <1589 ganab > them.

33 And Laban <3837 Laban > went <0935 bow> > into Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob >

tent <0168 >ohel >, and into Leah's <3812 Le>ah > tent <0168 >ohel >, and

into the two <8147 sh@nayim > maidservants <0519 >amah >' tents <0168 >ohel

Leah's <3812 Le>ah > tent <0168 >ohel >, and entered <0935 bow> > into

Rachel's <7354 Rachel > tent <0168 >ohel >.

34 Now Rachel <7354 Rachel > had taken <3947 laqach > the images <8655

t@raphiym >, and put <7760 suwm > them in the camel's <1581 gamal > furniture

<3733 kar >, and sat <3427 yashab > upon them. And Laban <3837 Laban >

searched <4959 mashash > all <3605 kol > the tent <0168 >ohel >, but found

<4672 matsa> > [them] not.

35 And she said <0559 >amar > to her father <1>, Let it not displease <2734

charah > my lord <0113 >adown > that I cannot rise <6965 quwm > up before

<6440 paniym > thee; for the custom <1870 derek > of women <0802 >ishshah >

[is] upon me. And he searched <2664 chaphas >, but found <4672 matsa> > not

the images <8655 t@raphiym >.

36. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > was wroth <2734 charah >, and chode <7378 riyb

and said <0559 >amar > to Laban <3837 Laban >, What <4100 mah > [is] my

trespass <6588 pesha< >? what <4100 mah > [is] my sin <2403 chatta>ah >, that

thou hast so hotly <1814 dalaq > pursued <1814 dalaq > after <0310 >achar >

me?

37 Whereas <3588 kiy > thou hast searched <4959 mashash > all <3605 kol > my

stuff <3627 k@liy >, what <4100 mah > hast thou found <4672 matsa> > of all

<3605 kol > thy household <1004 bayith > stuff <3627 k@liy >? set <7760 suwm

brethren <0251 >ach >, that they may judge <3198 yakach > betwixt <0996 beyn

38 This <2088 zeh > twenty <6242 <esriym > years <8141 shaneh > [have] I

[been] with thee; thy ewes <7353 rachel > and thy she goats <5795 <ez > have

not cast <7921 shakol > their young, and the rams <0352 >ayil > of thy flock

<6629 tso>n > have I not eaten <0398 >akal >.

39 That which was torn <2966 t@rephah > [of beasts <2966 t@rephah >] I

brought <0935 bow> > not unto thee; I bare <2308 chadal > the loss <2398

chata> > of it; of my hand <3027 yad > didst thou require <1245 baqash > it,

[whether] stolen <1589 ganab > by day <3117 yowm >, or stolen <1589 ganab >

by night <3915 layil >.

40 [Thus] I was; in the day <3117 yowm > the drought <2721 choreb > consumed

<0398 >akal > me, and the frost <7140 qerach > by night <3915 layil >; and my

sleep <8142 shehah > departed <5074 nadad > from mine eyes <5869 <ayin >.

41 Thus <2088 zeh > have I been twenty <6242 <esriym > years <8141 shaneh >

in thy house <1004 bayith >; I served <5647 <abad > thee fourteen years <8141

shaneh > for thy two <8147 sh@nayim > daughters <1363 gobahh >, and six <8337

shesh > years <8141 shaneh > for thy cattle <6629 tso>n >: and thou hast

changed <2498 chalaph > my wages <4909 maskoreth > ten <6235 <eser > times

<4489 moneh >.

42 Except <3884 luwle> > the God <0430 >elohiym > of my father <1>, the God

<0430 >elohiym > of Abraham <85>, and the fear <6343 pachad > of Isaac <3327

Yitschaq >, had been <1961 hayah > with me, surely <3588 kiy > thou hadst

sent <7971 shalach > me away now <6258 <attah > empty <7387 reyqam >. God

<0430 >elohiym > hath seen <7200 ra>ah > mine affliction <6040 <oniy > and

the labour <3018 y@giya< > of my hands <3709 kaph >, and rebuked <3198 yakach

43. And Laban <3837 Laban > answered <6030 <anah > and said <0559 >amar >

unto Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, [These] daughters <1363 gobahh > [are] my

daughters <1363 gobahh >, and [these] children <1121 ben > [are] my children

<1121 ben >, and [these] cattle <6629 tso>n > [are] my cattle <6629 tso>n >,

and all <3605 kol > that thou seest <7200 ra>ah > [is] mine: and what <4100

<1363 gobahh >, or <0176 >ow > unto their children <1121 ben > which <0834

44 Now <6258 <attah > therefore come <3212 yalak > thou, let us make <3772

karath > a covenant <1285 b@riyth >, I and thou; and let it be for a witness

<5707 <ed > between <0996 beyn > me and thee.

45 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > took <3947 laqach > a stone <68>, and set <7311

ruwm > it up [for] a pillar <4676 matstsebah >.

46 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar > unto his brethren <0251 >ach

<68>, and made <6213 <asah > an heap <1530 gal >: and they did eat <0398

47 And Laban <3837 Laban > called <7121 qara> > it Jegarsahadutha <3026

Y@gar Sahaduwtha> >: but Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > called <7121 qara> > it Galeed

<1567 Gal<ed >.

48 And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar >, This <2088 zeh > heap <1530

<3117 yowm >. Therefore was the name <8034 shem > of it called <7121 qara> >

Galeed <1567 Gal<ed >;

49 And Mizpah <4709 Mitspah >; for he said <0559 >amar >, The LORD <3068

Y@hovah > watch <6822 tsaphah > between <0996 beyn > me and thee, when <3588

witness <5707 <ed > betwixt <0996 beyn > me and thee.

51 And Laban <3837 Laban > said <0559 >amar > to Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >,

Behold <2009 hinneh > this <2088 zeh > heap <1530 gal >, and behold <2009

will not pass <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > this <2088 zeh > heap <1530

this <2088 zeh > heap <1530 gal > and this <2063 zo>th > pillar <4676

matstsebah > unto me, for harm <7451 ra< >.

53 The God <0430 >elohiym > of Abraham <85>, and the God <0430 >elohiym > of

Nahor <5152 Q@riyowth Nachowr >, the God <0430 >elohiym > of their father

<1>, judge <8199 shaphat > betwixt <0996 beyn > us. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >

sware <7650 shaba< > by the fear <6343 pachad > of his father <1> Isaac <3327

Yitschaq >.

54 Then Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > offered <2076 zabach > sacrifice <2077 zebach

in the mount <2022 har >.

55 And early <7925 shakam > in the morning <1242 boqer > Laban <3837 Laban >

rose <7925 shakam > up, and kissed <5401 nashaq > his sons <1121 ben > and

his daughters <1363 gobahh >, and blessed <1288 barak > them: and Laban <3837

Laban > departed <3212 yalak >, and returned <7725 shuwb > unto his place

<4725 maqowm >.

Genesis 32

1. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > went <1980 halak > on his way <1870 derek >,

and the angels <4397 mal>ak > of God <0430 >elohiym > met <6293 paga< > him.

2 And when <0834 >aher > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > saw <7200 ra>ah > them, he

said <0559 >amar >, This <2088 zeh > [is] God's <0430 >elohiym > host <4264

machaneh >: and he called <7121 qara> > the name <8034 shem > of that place

<4725 maqowm > Mahanaim <4266 Machanayim >.

3. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > sent <7971 shalach > messengers <4397 mal>ak >

before <6440 paniym > him to Esau <6215 <Esav > his brother <0251 >ach > unto

the land <0776 >erets > of Seir <8165 Se<iyr >, the country <7704 sadeh > of

Edom <0123 >Edom >.

4 And he commanded <6680 tsavah > them, saying <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh

<3541 koh >, I have sojourned <1481 guwr > with Laban <3837 Laban >, and

stayed <0309 >achar > there until <5704 <ad > now <6258 <attah >:

5 And I have <1961 hayah > oxen <7794 showr >, and asses <2543 chamowr >,

flocks <6629 tso>n >, and menservants <5650 <ebed >, and womenservants <8198

shiphchah >: and I have <1961 hayah > sent <7971 shalach > to tell <5046

chen > in thy sight <5869 <ayin >.

6 And the messengers <4397 mal>ak > returned <7725 shuwb > to Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob >, saying <0559 >amar >, We came <0935 bow> > to thy brother <0251

meet <7125 qir>ah > thee, and four <0702 >arba< > hundred <3967 me>ah > men

<0376 >iysh > with him.

7 Then Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > was greatly <3966 m@<od > afraid <3372 yare> >

and distressed <3334 yatsar >: and he divided <2673 chatsah > the people

<5971 <am > that [was] with him, and the flocks <6629 tso>n >, and herds

<1241 baqar >, and the camels <1581 gamal >, into two <8147 sh@nayim > bands

<4264 machaneh >;

8 And said <0559 >amar >, If <0518 >im > Esau <6215 <Esav > come <0935 bow>

9. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar >, O God <0430 >elohiym > of

my father <1> Abraham <85>, and God <0430 >elohiym > of my father <1> Isaac

<3327 Yitschaq >, the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > which saidst <0559 >amar > unto

me, Return <7725 shuwb > unto thy country <0776 >erets >, and to thy kindred

<4138 mowledeth >, and I will deal well <3190 yatab > with thee:

10 I am not worthy <6994 qaton > of the least <6994 qaton > of all <3605 kol

become <1961 hayah > two <8147 sh@nayim > bands <4264 machaneh >.

11 Deliver <5337 natsal > me, I pray <4994 na> > thee, from the hand <3027

yad > of my brother <0251 >ach >, from the hand <3027 yad > of Esau <6215

bow> > and smite <5221 nakah > me, [and] the mother <0517 >em > with the

children <1121 ben >.

12 And thou saidst <0559 >amar >, I will surely do thee good <3190 yatab >,

and make <7760 suwm > thy seed <2233 zera< > as the sand <2344 chowl > of the

sea <3220 yam >, which <0834 >aher > cannot <3808 lo> > be numbered <5608

caphar > for multitude <7230 rob >.

13. And he lodged <3885 luwn > there <8033 sham > that same <1931 huw> >

night <3915 layil >; and took <3947 laqach > of that which came <0935 bow> >

to his hand <3027 yad > a present <4503 minchah > for Esau <6215 <Esav > his

14 Two hundred <3967 me>ah > she goats <5795 <ez >, and twenty <6242 <esriym

15 Thirty <7970 sh@lowshiym > milch <3243 yanaq > camels <1581 gamal > with

their colts <1121 ben >, forty <0705 >arba<iym > kine <6510 parah >, and ten

16 And he delivered <5414 nathan > [them] into the hand <3027 yad > of his

servants <5650 <ebed >, every drove <5739 <eder > by themselves <0905 bad >;

and said <0559 >amar > unto his servants <5650 <ebed >, Pass <5674 <abar >

over <5674 <abar > before <6440 paniym > me, and put <7760 suwm > a space

<7305 revach > betwixt <0996 beyn > drove <5739 <eder > and drove <5739 <eder

17 And he commanded <6680 tsavah > the foremost <7223 ri>shown >, saying

<0559 >amar >, When <3588 kiy > Esau <6215 <Esav > my brother <0251 >ach >

meeteth <6298 pagash > thee, and asketh <7592 sha>al > thee, saying <0559

18 Then thou shalt say <0559 >amar >, [They be] thy servant <5650 <ebed >

Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob >; it [is] a present <4503 minchah > sent <7971 shalach

also <1571 gam > he [is] behind <0310 >achar > us.

19 And so <1571 gam > commanded <6680 tsavah > he the second <8145 sheniy >,

and the third <7992 sh@liyshiy >, and all <3605 kol > that followed the

droves <5739 <eder >, saying <0559 >amar >, On this <2088 zeh > manner <1697

dabar > shall ye speak <1696 dabar > unto Esau <6215 <Esav >, when ye find

<4672 matsa> > him.

20 And say <0559 >amar > ye moreover <1571 gam >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, thy

servant <5650 <ebed > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > [is] behind <0310 >achar > us.

For he said <0559 >amar >, I will appease <6440 paniym > him with the present

<4503 minchah > that goeth <1980 halak > before <6440 paniym > me, and

afterward I will see <7200 ra>ah > his face <6440 paniym >; peradventure

<0194 >uwlay > he will accept <5375 nasa> > of me.

21 So went <5674 <abar > the present <4503 minchah > over <5674 <abar >

before him: and himself <1931 huw> > lodged <3885 luwn > that night <3915

layil > in the company <4264 machaneh >.

22 And he rose <6965 quwm > up that night <3915 layil >, and took <3947

laqach > his two <8147 sh@nayim > wives <0802 >ishshah >, and his two <8147

Jabbok <2999 Yabboq >.

23 And he took <3947 laqach > them, and sent <5674 <abar > them over <5674

<abar > the brook <5158 nachal >, and sent <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar >

that he had.

24. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > was left <3498 yathar > alone <0905 bad >; and

there wrestled <79> a man <0376 >iysh > with him until <5704 <ad > the

breaking <5927 <alah > of the day <7837 shachar >.

25 And when he saw <7200 ra>ah > that he prevailed <3201 yakol > not against

him, he touched <5060 naga< > the hollow <3709 kaph > of his thigh <3409

26 And he said <0559 >amar >, Let me go <7971 shalach >, for the day <7837

shachar > breaketh <5927 <alah >. And he said <0559 >amar >, I will not let

thee go <7971 shalach >, except thou bless <1288 barak > me.

27 And he said <0559 >amar > unto him, What <4100 mah > [is] thy name <8034

shem >? And he said <0559 >amar >, Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >.

28 And he said <0559 >amar >, Thy name <8034 shem > shall be called <0559

<0430 >elohiym > and with men <0582 >enowsh >, and hast prevailed <3201 yakol

29 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > asked <7592 sha>al > [him], and said <0559

dost ask <7592 sha>al > after my name <8034 shem >? And he blessed <1288

30 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > called <7121 qara> > the name <8034 shem > of

the place <4725 maqowm > Peniel <6439 P@nuw>el >: for I have seen <7200 ra>ah

life <5315 nephesh > is preserved <5337 natsal >.

31 And as he passed <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > Penuel <6439 P@nuw>el >

the sun <8121 shemesh > rose <2224 zarach > upon him, and he halted <6761

tsela< > upon his thigh <3409 yarek >.

32 Therefore the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > eat <0398

<0834 >aher > [is] upon the hollow <3709 kaph > of the thigh <3409 yarek >,

unto this <2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm >: because <3588 kiy > he touched <5060

Genesis 33

1. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > lifted <5375 nasa> > up his eyes <5869 <ayin >,

and looked <7200 ra>ah >, and, behold <2009 hinneh >, Esau <6215 <Esav > came

<0935 bow> >, and with him four <0702 >arba< > hundred <3967 me>ah > men

<0376 >iysh >. And he divided <2673 chatsah > the children <3206 yeled > unto

Leah <3812 Le>ah >, and unto Rachel <7354 Rachel >, and unto the two <8147

sh@nayim > handmaids <8198 shiphchah >.

2 And he put <7760 suwm > the handmaids <8198 shiphchah > and their children

<3206 yeled > foremost <7223 ri>shown >, and Leah <3812 Le>ah > and her

children <3206 yeled > after <0314 >acharown >, and Rachel <7354 Rachel > and

Joseph <3130 Yowceph > hindermost <0314 >acharown >.

3 And he passed <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > before <6440 paniym > them,

and bowed <7812 shachah > himself to the ground <0776 >erets > seven <7651

sheba< > times <6471 pa<am >, until <5704 <ad > he came <5066 nagash > near

<5066 nagash > to his brother <0251 >ach >.

4 And Esau <6215 <Esav > ran <7323 ruwts > to meet <7125 qir>ah > him, and

embraced <2263 chabaq > him, and fell <5307 naphal > on <5921 <al > his neck

<6677 tsavva>r >, and kissed <5401 nashaq > him: and they wept <1058 bakah >.

5. And he lifted <5375 nasa> > up his eyes <5869 <ayin >, and saw <7200

ra>ah > the women <0802 >ishshah > and the children <3206 yeled >; and said

<0559 >amar >, Who <4310 miy > [are] those <0428 >el-leh > with thee? And he

said <0559 >amar >, The children <3206 yeled > which <0834 >aher > God <0430

>elohiym > hath graciously <2603 chanan > given <2603 chanan > thy servant

<5650 <ebed >.

6 Then the handmaidens <8198 shiphchah > came <5066 nagash > near <5066

nagash >, they and their children <3206 yeled >, and they bowed <7812 shachah

7 And Leah <3812 Le>ah > also <1571 gam > with her children <3206 yeled >

came <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash >, and bowed <7812 shachah >

themselves: and after <0310 >achar > came <5066 nagash > Joseph <3130 Yowceph

8 And he said <0559 >amar >, What <4310 miy > [meanest] thou by all <3605

kol > this <2088 zeh > drove <4264 machaneh > which <0834 >aher > I met <6298

pagash >? And he said <0559 >amar >, [These are] to find <4672 matsa> > grace

<2580 chen > in the sight <5869 <ayin > of my lord <0113 >adown >.

9 And Esau <6215 <Esav > said <0559 >amar >, I have <3426 yesh > enough

<7227 rab >, my brother <0251 >ach >; keep <1961 hayah > that thou hast unto

thyself.

10 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar >, Nay <0408 >al >, I pray

<4994 na> > thee, if <0518 >im > now <4994 na> > I have found <4672 matsa> >

grace <2580 chen > in thy sight <5869 <ayin >, then receive <3947 laqach > my

present <4503 minchah > at my hand <3027 yad >: for therefore I have seen

<7200 ra>ah > thy face <6440 paniym >, as though I had seen <7200 ra>ah > the

face <6440 paniym > of God <0430 >elohiym >, and thou wast pleased <7521

ratsah > with me.

11 Take <3947 laqach >, I pray <4994 na> > thee, my blessing <1293 B@rakah >

that is brought <0935 bow> > to thee; because <3588 kiy > God <0430 >elohiym

> hath dealt graciously <2603 chanan > with me, and because <3588 kiy > I

have <3426 yesh > enough <3605 kol >. And he urged <6484 patsar > him, and he

took <3947 laqach > [it].

12 And he said <0559 >amar >, Let us take our journey <5265 naca< >, and let

us go <3212 yalak >, and I will go <3212 yalak > before <5048 neged > thee.

13 And he said <0559 >amar > unto him, My lord <0113 >adown > knoweth <3045

yada< > that the children <3206 yeled > [are] tender <7390 rak >, and the

flocks <6629 tso>n > and herds <1241 baqar > with young <5763 <uwl > [are]

with me: and if <0518 >im > men should overdrive <1849 daphaq > them one

<0259 >echad > day <3117 yowm >, all <3605 kol > the flock <6629 tso>n > will

die <4191 muwth >.

14 Let my lord <0113 >adown >, I pray <4994 na> > thee, pass <5674 <abar >

over <5674 <abar > before <6440 paniym > his servant <5650 <ebed >: and I

will lead <5095 nahal > on softly <0328 >at >, according <7272 regel > as the

cattle <4399 m@la>kah > that goeth before <6440 paniym > me and the children

<3206 yeled > be able <7272 regel > to endure <7272 regel >, until <5704 <ad

> I come <0935 bow> > unto my lord <0113 >adown > unto Seir <8165 Se<iyr >.

15 And Esau <6215 <Esav > said <0559 >amar >, Let me now <4994 na> > leave

<3322 yatsag > with thee [some] of the folk <5971 <am > that [are] with me.

And he said <0559 >amar >, What <4100 mah > needeth it? let me find <4672

matsa> > grace <2580 chen > in the sight <5869 <ayin > of my lord <0113

>adown >.

16. So Esau <6215 <Esav > returned <7725 shuwb > that day <3117 yowm > on

his way <1870 derek > unto Seir <8165 Se<iyr >.

17 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > journeyed <5265 naca< > to Succoth <5523

Cukkowth >, and built <1129 banah > him an house <1004 bayith >, and made

<6213 <asah > booths <5521 cukkah > for his cattle <4735 miqneh >: therefore

the name <8034 shem > of the place <4725 maqowm > is called <7121 qara> >

Succoth <5523 Cukkowth >.

18 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > came <0935 bow> > to Shalem <8003 shalem >, a

city <5892 <iyr > of Shechem <7927 Sh@kem >, which <0834 >aher > [is] in the

land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >, when he came <0935 bow> > from

Padanaram <6307 Paddan >; and pitched <2583 chanah > his tent before the city

<5892 <iyr >.

19 And he bought <7069 qanah > a parcel <2513 chelqah > of a field <7704

sadeh >, where <0834 >aher > he had spread <5186 natah > his tent <0168 >ohel

of money <7192 q@siytah >.

20 And he erected <5324 natsab > there <8033 sham > an altar <4196 mizbeach

Genesis 34

1. And Dinah <1783 Diynah > the daughter <1323 bath > of Leah <3812 Le>ah >,

which <0834 >aher > she bare <3205 yalad > unto Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, went

<3318 yatsa> > out to see <7200 ra>ah > the daughters <1363 gobahh > of the

land <0776 >erets >.

2 And when Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > the son <1121 ben > of Hamor <2544 Chamowr

>erets >, saw <7200 ra>ah > her, he took <3947 laqach > her, and lay <7901

shakab > with her, and defiled <6031 <anah > her.

3 And his soul <5315 nephesh > clave <1692 dabaq > unto Dinah <1783 Diynah >

the daughter <1323 bath > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, and he loved <0157 >ahab

<5291 na<arah >.

4 And Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > spake <0559 >amar > unto his father <1> Hamor

<2544 Chamowr >, saying <0559 >amar >, Get <3947 laqach > me this <2063 zo>th

5 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > heard <8085 shama< > that he had defiled <2930

tame> > Dinah <1783 Diynah > his daughter <1323 bath >: now his sons <1121

ben > were with his cattle <4735 miqneh > in the field <7704 sadeh >: and

Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > held <2790 charash > his peace <2790 charash > until

<5704 <ad > they were come <0935 bow> >.

6. And Hamor <2544 Chamowr > the father <1> of Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > went

<3318 yatsa> > out unto Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > to commune <1696 dabar > with

him.

7 And the sons <1121 ben > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > came <0935 bow> > out of

the field <7704 sadeh > when they heard <8085 shama< > [it]: and the men

<0582 >enowsh > were grieved <6087 <atsab >, and they were very <3966 m@<od >

wroth <2734 charah >, because <3588 kiy > he had wrought <6213 <asah > folly

<5039 n@balah > in Israel <3478 Yisra>el > in lying <7901 shakab > with

Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob > daughter <1323 bath >; which <3651 ken > thing <3651

ken > ought not to be done <6213 <asah >.

8 And Hamor <2544 Chamowr > communed <1696 dabar > with them, saying <0559

>amar >, The soul <5315 nephesh > of my son <1121 ben > Shechem <7927 Sh@kem

you give <5414 nathan > her him to wife <0802 >ishshah >.

9 And make ye marriages <2859 chathan > with us, [and] give <5414 nathan >

your daughters <1363 gobahh > unto us, and take <3947 laqach > our daughters

<1363 gobahh > unto you.

10 And ye shall dwell <3427 yashab > with us: and the land <0776 >erets >

shall be before <6440 paniym > you; dwell <3427 yashab > and trade <5503

cachar > ye therein, and get you possessions <0270 >achaz > therein.

11 And Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > said <0559 >amar > unto her father <1> and

unto her brethren <0251 >ach >, Let me find <4672 matsa> > grace <2580 chen >

in your eyes <5869 <ayin >, and what <0834 >aher > ye shall say <0559 >amar >

unto me I will give <5414 nathan >.

12 Ask me never so much dowry <4119 mohar > and gift <4976 mattan >, and I

will give <5414 nathan > according as ye shall say <0559 >amar > unto me: but

give <5414 nathan > me the damsel <5291 na<arah > to wife <0802 >ishshah >.

13 And the sons <1121 ben > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > answered <6030 <anah >

Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > and Hamor <2544 Chamowr > his father <1> deceitfully

<4820 mirmah >, and said <1696 dabar >, because <0834 >aher > he had defiled

<2930 tame> > Dinah <1783 Diynah > their sister <0269 >achowth >:

14 And they said <0559 >amar > unto them, We cannot do <6213 <asah > this

<2088 zeh > thing <1697 dabar >, to give <5414 nathan > our sister <0269

>achowth > to one <0376 >iysh > that is uncircumcised <6190 <orlah >; for

that [were] a reproach <2781 cherpah > unto us:

15 But in this <2063 zo>th > will we consent <0225 >uwth > unto you: If

<0518 >im > ye will be as we [be], that every <3605 kol > male <2145 zakar >

of you be circumcised <4135 muwl >;

16 Then will we give <5414 nathan > our daughters <1363 gobahh > unto you,

and we will take <3947 laqach > your daughters <1363 gobahh > to us, and we

will dwell <3427 yashab > with you, and we will become <1961 hayah > one

<0259 >echad > people <5971 <am >.

17 But if <0518 >im > ye will not hearken <8085 shama< > unto us, to be

circumcised <4135 muwl >; then will we take <3947 laqach > our daughter <1323

bath >, and we will be gone <1980 halak >.

18. And their words <1697 dabar > pleased Hamor <2544 Chamowr >, and Shechem

<7927 Sh@kem > Hamor's <2544 Chamowr > son <1121 ben >.

19 And the young <5288 na<ar > man deferred <0309 >achar > not to do <6213

<asah > the thing <1697 dabar >, because <3588 kiy > he had delight <2654

chaphets > in Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob > daughter <1323 bath >: and he [was]

more <3513 kabad > honourable <3513 kabad > than all <3605 kol > the house

<1004 bayith > of his father <1>.

20 And Hamor <2544 Chamowr > and Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > his son <1121 ben >

came <0935 bow> > unto the gate <8179 sha<ar > of their city <5892 <iyr >,

and communed <1696 dabar > with the men <0582 >enowsh > of their city <5892

21 These <0428 >el-leh > men <0582 >enowsh > [are] peaceable <8003 shalem >

with us; therefore let them dwell <3427 yashab > in the land <0776 >erets >,

and trade <5503 cachar > therein; for the land <0776 >erets >, behold <2009

hinneh >, [it is] large <7342 rachab > enough <3027 yad > for them; let us

take <3947 laqach > their daughters <1363 gobahh > to us for wives <0802

22 Only <0389 >ak > herein <2063 zo>th > will the men <0582 >enowsh >

consent <0225 >uwth > unto us for to dwell <3427 yashab > with us, to be one

<2145 zakar > among us be circumcised <4135 muwl >, as they [are] circumcised

<4135 muwl >.

23 [Shall] not their cattle <4735 miqneh > and their substance <7075 qinyan

24 And unto Hamor <2544 Chamowr > and unto Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > his son

<1121 ben > hearkened <8085 shama< > all <3605 kol > that went <3318 yatsa> >

out of the gate <8179 sha<ar > of his city <5892 <iyr >; and every <3605 kol

<3318 yatsa> > out of the gate <8179 sha<ar > of his city <5892 <iyr >.

25. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass on the third <7992 sh@liyshiy > day

<3117 yowm >, when they were sore <3510 ka>ab >, that two <8147 sh@nayim > of

the sons <1121 ben > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, Simeon <8095 Shim<own > and

Levi <3878 Leviy >, Dinah's <1783 Diynah > brethren <0251 >ach >, took <3947

laqach > each man <0376 >iysh > his sword <2719 chereb >, and came <0935 bow>

all <3605 kol > the males <2145 zakar >.

26 And they slew <2026 harag > Hamor <2544 Chamowr > and Shechem <7927

Sh@kem > his son <1121 ben > with the edge <6310 peh > of the sword <2719

chereb >, and took <3947 laqach > Dinah <1783 Diynah > out of Shechem's <7927

Sh@kem > house <1004 bayith >, and went <3318 yatsa> > out.

27 The sons <1121 ben > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > came <0935 bow> > upon the

slain <2491 chalal >, and spoiled <0962 bazaz > the city <5892 <iyr >,

because <0834 >aher > they had defiled <2930 tame> > their sister <0269

28 They took <3947 laqach > their sheep <6629 tso>n >, and their oxen <1241

baqar >, and their asses <2543 chamowr >, and that which <0834 >aher > [was]

<7704 sadeh >,

29 And all <3605 kol > their wealth <2428 chayil >, and all <3605 kol >

their little <2945 taph > ones, and their wives <0802 >ishshah > took they

captive <7617 shabah >, and spoiled <0962 bazaz > even all <3605 kol > that

[was] in the house <1004 bayith >.

30 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar > to Simeon <8095 Shim<own >

and Levi <3878 Leviy >, Ye have troubled <5916 <akar > me to make me to stink

nakah > me; and I shall be destroyed <8045 shamad >, I and my house <1004

bayith >.

31 And they said <0559 >amar >, Should he deal <6213 <asah > with our sister

<0269 >achowth > as with an harlot <2181 zanah >?

Genesis 35

1. And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar > unto Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >,

Arise <6965 quwm >, go <5927 <alah > up to Bethel <1008 Beyth->El >, and

dwell <3427 yashab > there <8033 sham >: and make <6213 <asah > there <8033

ra>ah > unto thee when thou fleddest <1272 barach > from the face <6440

paniym > of Esau <6215 <Esav > thy brother <0251 >ach >.

2 Then Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar > unto his household <1004

bayith >, and to all <3605 kol > that [were] with him, Put <5493 cuwr > away

the strange <5236 nekar > gods <0430 >elohiym > that [are] among <8432 tavek

<8071 simlah >:

3 And let us arise <6965 quwm >, and go <5927 <alah > up to Bethel <1008

Beyth->El >; and I will make <6213 <asah > there <8033 sham > an altar <4196

mizbeach > unto God <0410 >el >, who answered <6030 <anah > me in the day

<3117 yowm > of my distress <6869 tsarah >, and was with me in the way <1870

derek > which <0834 >aher > I went <1980 halak >.

4 And they gave <5414 nathan > unto Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > all <3605 kol >

the strange <5236 nekar > gods <0430 >elohiym > which <0834 >aher > [were] in

their hand <3027 yad >, and [all their] earrings <5141 nexem > which <0834

<2934 taman > them under <8478 tachath > the oak <0424 >elah > which <0834

>aher > [was] by Shechem <7927 Sh@kem >.

5 And they journeyed <5265 naca< >: and the terror <2847 chittah > of God

<0430 >elohiym > was upon the cities <5892 <iyr > that [were] round <5439

cabiyb > about them, and they did not pursue <7291 radaph > after <0310

6. So Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > came <0935 bow> > to Luz <3870 Luwz >, which

<0834 >aher > [is] in the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >, that

that [were] with him.

Genesis 37

1. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > dwelt <3427 yashab > in the land <0776 >erets >

wherein his father <1> was a stranger <4033 maguwr >, in the land <0776

>erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >.

2 These <0428 >el-leh > [are] the generations <8435 towl@dah > of Jacob

<3290 Ya<aqob >. Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, [being] seventeen <7651 sheba< >

years <8141 shaneh > old <1121 ben >, was feeding <7462 ra<ah > the flock

<6629 tso>n > with his brethren <0251 >ach >; and the lad <5288 na<ar > [was]

with the sons <1121 ben > of Bilhah <1090 Bilhah >, and with the sons <1121

ben > of Zilpah <2153 Zilpah >, his father's <1> wives <0802 >ishshah >: and

Joseph <3130 Yowceph > brought <0935 bow> > unto his father <1> their evil

<7451 ra< > report <1681 dibbah >.

3 Now Israel <3478 Yisra>el > loved <0157 >ahab > Joseph <3130 Yowceph >

more than all <3605 kol > his children <1121 ben >, because <3588 kiy > he

[was] the son <1121 ben > of his old <2208 zaqun > age: and he made <6213

<asah > him a coat <3801 k@thoneth > of [many] colours <6446 pac >.

4 And when his brethren <0251 >ach > saw <7200 ra>ah > that their father <1>

loved <0157 >ahab > him more than all <3605 kol > his brethren <0251 >ach >,

they hated <8130 sane> > him, and could <3201 yakol > not speak <1696 dabar >

peaceably <7965 shalowm > unto him.

5. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > dreamed <2492 chalam > a dream <2472 chalowm

>, and he told <5046 nagad > [it] his brethren <0251 >ach >: and they hated

<8130 sane> > him yet <5750 <owd > the more <3254 yacaph >.

6 And he said <0559 >amar > unto them, Hear <8085 shama< >, I pray <4994 na>

> you, this <2088 zeh > dream <2472 chalowm > which <0834 >aher > I have

dreamed <2492 chalam >:

7 For, behold <2009 hinneh >, we [were] binding <0481 >alam > sheaves <0485

>alummah > in the field <7704 sadeh >, and, lo <2009 hinneh >, my sheaf <0485

>alummah > arose <6965 quwm >, and also <1571 gam > stood <5324 natsab >

upright; and, behold <2009 hinneh >, your sheaves <0485 >alummah > stood

round <5437 cabab > about, and made obeisance <7812 shachah > to my sheaf

<0485 >alummah >.

8 And his brethren <0251 >ach > said <0559 >amar > to him, Shalt thou indeed

reign <4427 malak > over <5921 <al > us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion

<4910 mashal > over us? And they hated <8130 sane> > him yet <5750 <owd > the

more <3254 yacaph > for his dreams <2472 chalowm >, and for his words <1697

dabar >.

9 And he dreamed <2492 chalam > yet <5750 <owd > another <0312 >acher >

dream <2472 chalowm >, and told <5608 caphar > it his brethren <0251 >ach >,

and said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, I have dreamed <2492 chalam >

a dream <2472 chalowm > more <5750 <owd >; and, behold <2009 hinneh >, the

sun <8121 shemesh > and the moon <3394 yareach > and the eleven stars <3556

kowkab > made obeisance <7812 shachah > to me.

10 And he told <5608 caphar > [it] to his father <1>, and to his brethren

<0251 >ach >: and his father <1> rebuked <1605 ga<ar > him, and said <0559

>amar > unto him, What <4100 mah > [is] this <2088 zeh > dream <2472 chalowm

> that thou hast dreamed <2492 chalam >? Shall I and thy mother <0517 >em >

and thy brethren <0251 >ach > indeed come <0935 bow> > to bow <7812 shachah >

down <7812 shachah > ourselves to thee to the earth <0776 >erets >?

11 And his brethren <0251 >ach > envied <7065 qana> > him; but his father

<1> observed <8104 shamar > the saying <1697 dabar >.

12. And his brethren <0251 >ach > went <3212 yalak > to feed <7462 ra<ah >

their father's <1> flock <6629 tso>n > in Shechem <7927 Sh@kem >.

13 And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph <3130 Yowceph

>, Do not thy brethren <0251 >ach > feed <7462 ra<ah > [the flock] in Shechem

<7927 Sh@kem >? come <3212 yalak >, and I will send <7971 shalach > thee unto

them. And he said <0559 >amar > to him, Here <2009 hinneh > [am I].

14 And he said <0559 >amar > to him, Go <3212 yalak >, I pray <4994 na> >

thee, see <7200 ra>ah > whether it be well <7965 shalowm > with thy brethren

<0251 >ach >, and well <7965 shalowm > with the flocks <6629 tso>n >; and

bring <7725 shuwb > me word <1697 dabar > again <7725 shuwb >. So he sent

<7971 shalach > him out of the vale <6010 <emeq > of Hebron <2275 Chebrown >,

and he came <0935 bow> > to Shechem <7927 Sh@kem >.

15 And a certain man <0376 >iysh > found <4672 matsa> > him, and, behold

<2009 hinneh >, [he was] wandering <8582 ta<ah > in the field <7704 sadeh >:

and the man <0376 >iysh > asked <7592 sha>al > him, saying <0559 >amar >,

What <4100 mah > seekest <1245 baqash > thou?

16 And he said <0559 >amar >, I seek <1245 baqash > my brethren <0251 >ach

>: tell <5046 nagad > me, I pray <4994 na> > thee, where <0375 >eyphoh > they

feed <7462 ra<ah > [their flocks].

17 And the man <0376 >iysh > said <0559 >amar >, They are departed <5265

naca< > hence <2088 zeh >; for I heard <8085 shama< > them say <0559 >amar >,

Let us go <3212 yalak > to Dothan <1886 Dothan >. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph >

went <3212 yalak > after <0310 >achar > his brethren <0251 >ach >, and found

<4672 matsa> > them in Dothan <1886 Dothan >.

18 And when they saw <7200 ra>ah > him afar <7350 rachowq > off, even before

<2962 terem > he came <7126 qarab > near <7126 qarab > unto them, they

conspired <5320 Naphtuchiym > against <0834 >aher > him to slay <4191 muwth >

him.

19 And they said <0559 >amar > one <0376 >iysh > to another <0250 >Ezrachiy

20 Come <3212 yalak > now <6258 <attah > therefore, and let us slay <2026

harag > him, and cast <7993 shalak > him into some <0259 >echad > pit <0953

bowr >, and we will say <0559 >amar >, Some evil <7451 ra< > beast <2416 chay

mah > will become <1961 hayah > of his dreams <2472 chalowm >.

21 And Reuben <7205 R@>uwben > heard <8085 shama< > [it], and he delivered

<5337 natsal > him out of their hands <3027 yad >; and said <0559 >amar >,

Let us not kill <5221 nakah > him.

22 And Reuben <7205 R@>uwben > said <0559 >amar > unto them, Shed <8210

shaphak > no <3808 lo> > blood <1818 dam >, [but] cast <7993 shalak > him

into <0413 >el > this <2088 zeh > pit <0953 bowr > that [is] in the

wilderness <4057 midbar >, and lay <7971 shalach > no <3808 lo> > hand <3027

yad >, to deliver <7725 shuwb > him to his father <1> again <7725 shuwb >.

23. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when <0834 >aher > Joseph <3130

Yowceph > was come <0935 bow> > unto his brethren <0251 >ach >, that they

stript <6584 pashat > Joseph <3130 Yowceph > out of his coat <3801 k@thoneth

<5921 <al > him;

24 And they took <3947 laqach > him, and cast <7993 shalak > him into a pit

<0953 bowr >: and the pit <0953 bowr > [was] empty <7386 reyq >, [there was]

no <3808 lo> > water <4325 mayim > in it.

25 And they sat <3427 yashab > down to eat <0398 >akal > bread <3899 lechem

ra>ah >, and, behold <2009 hinneh >, a company <0736 >or@chah > of

Ishmeelites <3459 Yishma<e>liy > came <0935 bow> > from Gilead <1568 Gil<ad >

with their camels <1581 gamal > bearing <5375 nasa> > spicery <5219 n@ko>th >

and balm <6875 ts@riy > and myrrh <3910 lot >, going <1980 halak > to carry

<3381 yarad > [it] down <3381 yarad > to Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.

26 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > said <0559 >amar > unto his brethren <0251

<2026 harag > our brother <0251 >ach >, and conceal <3680 kacah > his blood

<1818 dam >?

27 Come <3212 yalak >, and let us sell <4376 makar > him to the Ishmeelites

<3459 Yishma<e>liy >, and let not our hand <3027 yad > be upon him; for he

[is] our brother <0251 >ach > [and] our flesh <1320 basar >. And his brethren

<0251 >ach > were content <8085 shama< >.

28 Then there passed <5674 <abar > by Midianites <4084 Midyaniy >

merchantmen <5503 cachar >; and they drew <4900 mashak > and lifted <5927

<alah > up Joseph <3130 Yowceph > out of the pit <0953 bowr >, and sold <4376

makar > Joseph <3130 Yowceph > to the Ishmeelites <3459 Yishma<e>liy > for

twenty <6242 <esriym > [pieces] of silver <3701 keceph >: and they brought

<0935 bow> > Joseph <3130 Yowceph > into Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.

29 And Reuben <7205 R@>uwben > returned <7725 shuwb > unto the pit <0953

bowr >; and, behold <2009 hinneh >, Joseph <3130 Yowceph > [was] not in the

pit <0953 bowr >; and he rent <7167 qara< > his clothes <0899 beged >.

30 And he returned <7725 shuwb > unto his brethren <0251 >ach >, and said

<0559 >amar >, The child <3206 yeled > [is] not; and I, whither <0575 >an >

shall I go <0935 bow> >?

31. And they took <3947 laqach > Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > coat <3801

k@thoneth >, and killed <7819 shachat > a kid <8163 sa<iyr > of the goats

<5795 <ez >, and dipped <2881 tabal > the coat <3801 k@thoneth > in the blood

<1818 dam >;

32 And they sent <7971 shalach > the coat <3801 k@thoneth > of [many]

colours <6446 pac >, and they brought <0935 bow> > [it] to their father <1>;

and said <0559 >amar >, This <2063 zo>th > have we found <4672 matsa> >: know

<5234 nakar > now <4994 na> > whether it [be] thy son's <1121 ben > coat

<3801 k@thoneth > or no <3808 lo> >.

33 And he knew <5234 nakar > it, and said <0559 >amar >, [It is] my son's

<1121 ben > coat <3801 k@thoneth >; an evil <7451 ra< > beast <2416 chay >

hath devoured <0398 >akal > him; Joseph <3130 Yowceph > is without <2963

taraph > doubt rent <2963 taraph > in pieces.

34 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > rent <7167 qara< > his clothes <8071 simlah >,

and put <7760 suwm > sackcloth <8242 saq > upon his loins <4975 mothen >, and

mourned <56> for his son <1121 ben > many <7227 rab > days <3117 yowm >.

35 And all <3605 kol > his sons <1121 ben > and all <3605 kol > his

daughters <1363 gobahh > rose <6965 quwm > up to comfort <5162 nacham > him;

but he refused <3985 ma>en > to be comforted <5162 nacham >; and he said

<0559 >amar >, For I will go <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > into the grave

<7585 sh@>owl > unto my son <1121 ben > mourning <57>. Thus his father <1>

wept <1058 bakah > for him.

36 And the Midianites <4092 M@daniy > sold <4376 makar > him into <0413 >el

<2876 tabbach >.

Genesis 38

1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass at that time <6256 <eth >, that Judah

<3063 Y@huwdah > went <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > from his brethren

<0251 >ach >, and turned <5186 natah > in to a certain <0376 >iysh >

Adullamite <5726 <Adullamiy >, whose name <8034 shem > [was] Hirah <2437

Chiyrah >.

2 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > saw <7200 ra>ah > there <8033 sham > a daughter

<1323 bath > of a certain <0376 >iysh > Canaanite <3669 K@na<aniy >, whose

name <8034 shem > [was] Shuah <7770 Shuwa< >; and he took <3947 laqach > her,

and went <0935 bow> > in unto her.

3 And she conceived <2029 harah >, and bare <3205 yalad > a son <1121 ben >;

and he called <7121 qara> > his name <8034 shem > Er <6147 <Er >.

4 And she conceived <2030 hareh > again <5750 <owd >, and bare <3205 yalad >

a son <1121 ben >; and she called <7121 qara> > his name <8034 shem > Onan

<0209 >Ownan >.

5 And she yet <5750 <owd > again <5750 <owd > conceived <3254 yacaph >, and

bare <3205 yalad > a son <1121 ben >; and called <7121 qara> > his name <8034

shem > Shelah <7956 Shelah >: and he was at Chezib <3580 K@ziyb >, when she

bare <3205 yalad > him.

6 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > took <3947 laqach > a wife <0802 >ishshah > for

Er <6147 <Er > his firstborn <1060 b@kowr >, whose name <8034 shem > [was]

Tamar <8559 Tamar >.

7 And Er <6147 <Er >, Judah's <3063 Y@huwdah > firstborn <1060 b@kowr >, was

wicked <7451 ra< > in the sight <5869 <ayin > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >;

and the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > slew <4191 muwth > him.

8 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > said <0559 >amar > unto Onan <0209 >Ownan >, Go

<0935 bow> > in unto thy brother's <0251 >ach > wife <0802 >ishshah >, and

marry <2992 yabam > her, and raise <6965 quwm > up seed <2233 zera< > to thy

brother <0251 >ach >.

9 And Onan <0209 >Ownan > knew <3045 yada< > that the seed <2233 zera< >

should not be his; and it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when <0518 >im > he

went <0935 bow> > in unto his brother's <0251 >ach > wife <0802 >ishshah >,

that he spilled <7843 shachath > [it] on the ground <0776 >erets >, lest

<1115 biltiy > that he should give <5414 nathan > seed <2233 zera< > to his

brother <0251 >ach >.

10 And the thing which <0834 >aher > he did <6213 <asah > displeased the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah >: wherefore he slew <4191 muwth > him also <1571 gam >.

11 Then said <0559 >amar > Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > to Tamar <8559 Tamar > his

daughter <3618 kallah > in law <3618 kallah >, Remain <3427 yashab > a widow

<0490 >almanah > at thy father's <1> house <1004 bayith >, till <5704 <ad >

Shelah <7956 Shelah > my son <1121 ben > be grown <1431 gadal >: for he said

<0559 >amar >, Lest <6435 pen > peradventure he die <4191 muwth > also <1571

gam >, as his brethren <0251 >ach > [did]. And Tamar <8559 Tamar > went <3212

yalak > and dwelt <3427 yashab > in her father's <1> house <1004 bayith >.

12. And in process <7235 rabah > of time <3117 yowm > the daughter <1323

bath > of Shuah <7770 Shuwa< > Judah's <3063 Y@huwdah > wife <0802 >ishshah >

died <4191 muwth >; and Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > was comforted <5162 nacham >,

and went <5927 <alah > up unto his sheepshearers to Timnath <8553 Timnah >,

he and his friend <7453 rea< > Hirah <2437 Chiyrah > the Adullamite <5726

<Adullamiy >.

13 And it was told <5046 nagad > Tamar <8559 Tamar >, saying <0559 >amar >,

Behold <2009 hinneh > thy father <2524 cham > in law <2524 cham > goeth <5927

<alah > up to Timnath <8553 Timnah > to shear <1494 gazaz > his sheep <6629

tso>n >.

14 And she put <5493 cuwr > her widow's <0491 >almanuwth > garments <0899

beged > off <5921 <al > from her, and covered <3680 kacah > her with a vail

<6809 tsa<iyph >, and wrapped <5968 <alaph > herself, and sat <3427 yashab >

in an open <5869 <ayin > place <6607 pethach >, which <0834 >aher > [is] by

the way <1870 derek > to Timnath <8553 Timnah >; for she saw <7200 ra>ah >

that Shelah <7956 Shelah > was grown <1431 gadal >, and she was not given

<5414 nathan > unto him to wife <0802 >ishshah >.

15 When Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > saw <7200 ra>ah > her, he thought <2803

chashab > her [to be] an harlot <2181 zanah >; because <3588 kiy > she had

covered <3680 kacah > her face <6440 paniym >.

16 And he turned <5186 natah > unto her by the way <1870 derek >, and said

<0559 >amar >, Go <3051 yahab > to, I pray <4994 na> > thee, let me come

<0935 bow> > in unto thee; (for he knew <3045 yada< > not that she [was] his

daughter <3618 kallah > in law <3618 kallah >.) And she said <0559 >amar >,

What <4100 mah > wilt thou give <5414 nathan > me, that thou mayest come

<0935 bow> > in unto me?

17 And he said <0559 >amar >, I will send <7971 shalach > [thee] a kid <1423

g@diy > from the flock <6629 tso>n >. And she said <0559 >amar >, Wilt thou

give <5414 nathan > [me] a pledge <6162 <arabown >, till <5704 <ad > thou

send <7971 shalach > [it]?

18 And he said <0559 >amar >, What <0834 >aher > pledge <6162 <arabown >

shall I give <5414 nathan > thee? And she said <0559 >amar >, Thy signet

<2368 chowtham >, and thy bracelets <6616 pathiyl >, and thy staff <4294

matteh > that [is] in thine hand <3027 yad >. And he gave <5414 nathan > [it]

her, and came <0935 bow> > in unto her, and she conceived <2030 hareh > by

him.

19 And she arose <6965 quwm >, and went <3212 yalak > away, and laid <5493

cuwr > by her vail <6809 tsa<iyph > from her, and put <3847 labash > on the

garments <0899 beged > of her widowhood <0491 >almanuwth >.

20 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > sent <7971 shalach > the kid <1423 g@diy > by

the hand <3027 yad > of his friend <7453 rea< > the Adullamite <5726

<Adullamiy >, to receive <3947 laqach > [his] pledge <6162 <arabown > from

the woman's <0802 >ishshah > hand <3027 yad >: but he found <4672 matsa> >

her not.

21 Then he asked <7592 sha>al > the men <0582 >enowsh > of that place <4725

q@deshah >, that [was] openly <5879 <Eynayim > by the way <1870 derek > side?

And they said <0559 >amar >, There was no <3808 lo> > harlot <6948 q@deshah >

in this <2088 zeh > [place].

22 And he returned <7725 shuwb > to Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, and said <0559

the men <0582 >enowsh > of the place <4725 maqowm > said <0559 >amar >,

[that] there was no <3808 lo> > harlot <6948 q@deshah > in this <2088 zeh >

23 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > said <0559 >amar >, Let her take <3947 laqach

hinneh >, I sent <7971 shalach > this <2088 zeh > kid <1423 g@diy >, and thou

hast not found <4672 matsa> > her.

24. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass about three <7969 shalowsh > months

<2320 chodesh > after, that it was told <5046 nagad > Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >,

saying <0559 >amar >, Tamar <8559 Tamar > thy daughter <3618 kallah > in law

<3618 kallah > hath played the harlot <2181 zanah >; and also <1571 gam >,

behold <2009 hinneh >, she [is] with child <2030 hareh > by whoredom <2183

her forth <3318 yatsa> >, and let her be burnt <8313 saraph >.

25 When she [was] brought <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> >, she sent

<7971 shalach > to her father <2524 cham > in law <2524 cham >, saying <0559

staff <4294 matteh >.

26 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > acknowledged <5234 nakar > [them], and said

<0559 >amar >, She hath been more righteous <6663 tsadaq > than I; because

<3588 kiy > that I gave <5414 nathan > her not to Shelah <7956 Shelah > my

son <1121 ben >. And he knew <3045 yada< > her again <3254 yacaph > no <3808

27 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the time <6256 <eth > of her travail

<3205 yalad >, that, behold <2009 hinneh >, twins <8380 ta>owm > [were] in

her womb <0990 beten >.

28 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when she travailed <3205 yalad >, that

[the one] put <5414 nathan > out [his] hand <3027 yad >: and the midwife

<3205 yalad > took <3947 laqach > and bound <7194 qashar > upon his hand

<3027 yad > a scarlet <8144 shaniy > thread, saying <0559 >amar >, This <2088

29 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, as he drew <7725 shuwb > back <7725

shuwb > his hand <3027 yad >, that, behold <2009 hinneh >, his brother <0251

hast thou broken <6555 parats > forth <6556 perets >? [this] breach <6556

perets > [be] upon thee: therefore his name <8034 shem > was called <7121

30 And afterward <0310 >achar > came <3318 yatsa> > out his brother <0251

and his name <8034 shem > was called <7121 qara> > Zarah <2226 Zerach >.

Genesis 39

1. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > was brought <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad >

to Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >; and Potiphar <6318 Powtiyphar >, an officer <5631

cariyc > of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, captain <8269 sar > of the guard <2876

tabbach >, an Egyptian <4713 Mitsriy >, bought <7069 qanah > him of the hands

<3027 yad > of the Ishmeelites <3459 Yishma<e>liy >, which <0834 >aher > had

brought <3381 yarad > him down <3381 yarad > thither <8033 sham >.

2 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > was with Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, and he was a

prosperous <6743 tsalach > man <0376 >iysh >; and he was in the house <1004

bayith > of his master <0113 >adown > the Egyptian <4713 Mitsriy >.

3 And his master <0113 >adown > saw <7200 ra>ah > that the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > [was] with him, and that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > made all <3605

4 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > found <4672 matsa> > grace <2580 chen > in his

sight <5869 <ayin >, and he served <8334 sharath > him: and he made him

overseer <6485 paqad > over <5921 <al > his house <1004 bayith >, and all

<3605 kol > [that] he had <3426 yesh > he put <5414 nathan > into his hand

<3027 yad >.

5 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass from the time [that] he had <3426 yesh >

made him overseer <6485 paqad > in his house <1004 bayith >, and over <5921

<al > all <3605 kol > that he had <3426 yesh >, that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

blessed <1288 barak > the Egyptian's <4713 Mitsriy > house <1004 bayith > for

Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > sake <1558 galal >; and the blessing <1293 B@rakah >

of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > was upon all <3605 kol > that he had <3426 yesh >

in the house <1004 bayith >, and in the field <7704 sadeh >.

6 And he left <5800 <azab > all <3605 kol > that he had in Joseph's <3130

Yowceph > hand <3027 yad >; and he knew <3045 yada< > not ought <3972 m@uwmah

yapheh > favoured <4758 mar>eh >.

7. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass after <0310 >achar > these <0428

>el-leh > things <1697 dabar >, that his master's <0113 >adown > wife <0802

Yowceph >; and she said <0559 >amar >, Lie <7901 shakab > with me.

8 But he refused <3985 ma>en >, and said <0559 >amar > unto his master's

<0113 >adown > wife <0802 >ishshah >, Behold <2005 hen >, my master <0113

9 [There is] none <0369 >ayin > greater <1419 gadowl > in this <2088 zeh >

house <1004 bayith > than I; neither <3808 lo> > hath he kept <2820 chasak >

back <2820 chasak > any <3972 m@uwmah > thing <3972 m@uwmah > from me but

thee, because <0834 >aher > thou [art] his wife <0802 >ishshah >: how <0349

wickedness <7451 ra< >, and sin <2398 chata> > against God <0430 >elohiym >?

10 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, as she spake <1696 dabar > to Joseph

<3130 Yowceph > day <3117 yowm > by day <3117 yowm >, that he hearkened <8085

shama< > not unto her, to lie <7901 shakab > by her, [or] to be with her.

11 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass about this <2088 zeh > time <3117 yowm

<asah > his business <4399 m@la>kah >; and [there was] none <0369 >ayin > of

the men <0582 >enowsh > of the house <1004 bayith > there <8033 sham > within

<1004 bayith >.

12 And she caught <8610 taphas > him by his garment <0899 beged >, saying

<0559 >amar >, Lie <7901 shakab > with me: and he left <5800 <azab > his

garment <0899 beged > in her hand <3027 yad >, and fled <5127 nuwc >, and got

<3318 yatsa> > him out.

13. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when she saw <7200 ra>ah > that he

had left <5800 <azab > his garment <0899 beged > in her hand <3027 yad >, and

was fled <5127 nuwc > forth <2315 cheder >,

14 That she called <7121 qara> > unto the men <0582 >enowsh > of her house

<1004 bayith >, and spake <0559 >amar > unto them, saying <0559 >amar >, See

<7200 ra>ah >, he hath brought <0935 bow> > in an Hebrew <5680 <Ibriy > unto

us to mock <6711 tsachaq > us; he came <0935 bow> > in unto me to lie <7901

shakab > with me, and I cried <7121 qara> > with a loud <1419 gadowl > voice

<6963 qowl >:

15 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when he heard <8085 shama< > that I

lifted <7311 ruwm > up my voice <6963 qowl > and cried <7121 qara> >, that he

left <5800 <azab > his garment <0899 beged > with me, and fled <5127 nuwc >,

and got <3318 yatsa> > him out.

16 And she laid <3241 Yaniym > up his garment <0899 beged > by her, until

<5704 <ad > his lord <0113 >adown > came <0935 bow> > home <1004 bayith >.

17 And she spake <1696 dabar > unto him according to these <0428 >el-leh >

words <1697 dabar >, saying <0559 >amar >, The Hebrew <5680 <Ibriy > servant

<5650 <ebed >, which <0834 >aher > thou hast brought <0935 bow> > unto us,

came <0935 bow> > in unto me to mock <6711 tsachaq > me:

18 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, as I lifted <7311 ruwm > up my voice

<6963 qowl > and cried <7121 qara> >, that he left <5800 <azab > his garment

<0899 beged > with me, and fled <5127 nuwc > out.

19. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when his master <0113 >adown > heard

<8085 shama< > the words <1697 dabar > of his wife <0802 >ishshah >, which

<0834 >aher > she spake <1696 dabar > unto him, saying <0559 >amar >, After

this <0428 >el-leh > manner <1697 dabar > did <6213 <asah > thy servant <5650

<ebed > to me; that his wrath <0639 >aph > was kindled <2734 charah >.

20 And Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > master <0113 >adown > took <3947 laqach >

him, and put <5414 nathan > him into <0413 >el > the prison, a place <4725

21 But the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > was with Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, and shewed

<5186 natah > him mercy <2617 checed >, and gave <5414 nathan > him favour

<2580 chen > in the sight <5869 <ayin > of the keeper <8269 sar > of the

prison.

22 And the keeper <8269 sar > of the prison committed <5414 nathan > to

Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > hand <3027 yad > all <3605 kol > the prisoners <0615

there <8033 sham >, he was the doer <6218 <asowr > [of it].

23 The keeper <8269 sar > of the prison looked <7200 ra>ah > not to any

<3972 m@uwmah > thing <3972 m@uwmah > [that was] under his hand <3027 yad >;

because <0834 >aher > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > was with him, and [that] which

<0834 >aher > he did <6213 <asah >, the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > made [it] to

prosper <6743 tsalach >.

Genesis 40

1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass after <0310 >achar > these <0428

>el-leh > things <1697 dabar >, [that] the butler <4945 mashqeh > of the king

<4428 melek > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > and [his] baker <0644 >aphah > had

offended <2398 chata> > their lord <0113 >adown > the king <4428 melek > of

Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.

2 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > was wroth <7107 qatsaph > against <5921 <al >

two <8147 sh@nayim > [of] his officers <5631 cariyc >, against <5921 <al >

the chief <8269 sar > of the butlers <4945 mashqeh >, and against <5921 <al >

the chief <8269 sar > of the bakers <0644 >aphah >.

3 And he put <5414 nathan > them in ward <4929 mishmar > in the house <1004

bayith > of the captain <8269 sar > of the guard <2876 tabbach >, into <0413

4 And the captain <8269 sar > of the guard <2876 tabbach > charged <6485

paqad > Joseph <3130 Yowceph > with them, and he served <8334 sharath > them:

and they continued <1961 hayah > a season <3117 yowm > in ward <4929 mishmar

5. And they dreamed <2492 chalam > a dream <2472 chalowm > both <8147

sh@nayim > of them, each man <0376 >iysh > his dream <2472 chalowm > in one

<0259 >echad > night <3915 layil >, each man <0376 >iysh > according to the

interpretation <6623 pithrown > of his dream <2472 chalowm >, the butler

Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, which <0834 >aher > [were] bound <0631 >acar > in

the prison.

6 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > came <0935 bow> > in unto them in the morning

<1242 boqer >, and looked <7200 ra>ah > upon them, and, behold <2009 hinneh

7 And he asked <7592 sha>al > Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > officers <5631 cariyc

<6440 paniym > ye [so] sadly <7451 ra< > to day <3117 yowm >?

8 And they said <0559 >amar > unto him, We have dreamed <2492 chalam > a

dream <2472 chalowm >, and [there is] no <0369 >ayin > interpreter <6622

pathar > of it. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto them, [Do]

not interpretations <6623 pithrown > [belong] to God <0430 >elohiym >? tell

<5608 caphar > me [them], I pray <4994 na> > you.

9 And the chief <8269 sar > butler <4945 mashqeh > told <5608 caphar > his

dream <2472 chalowm > to Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, and said <0559 >amar > to

him, In my dream <2472 chalowm >, behold <2009 hinneh >, a vine <1612 gephen

10 And in the vine <1612 gephen > [were] three <7969 shalowsh > branches

<8299 sariyg >: and it [was] as though it budded <6524 parach >, [and] her

blossoms <5322 nets > shot <5927 <alah > forth; and the clusters <0811

bashal > grapes <6025 <enab >:

11 And Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > cup <3563 kowc > [was] in my hand <3027 yad

sachat > them into <0413 >el > Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > cup <3563 kowc >, and

I gave <5414 nathan > the cup <3563 kowc > into <5921 <al > Pharaoh's <6547

Par<oh > hand <3709 kaph >.

12 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto him, This <2088 zeh >

[is] the interpretation <6623 pithrown > of it: The three <7969 shalowsh >

branches <8299 sariyg > [are] three <7969 shalowsh > days <3117 yowm >:

13 Yet <5750 <owd > within three <7969 shalowsh > days <3117 yowm > shall

Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > lift <5375 nasa> > up thine head <7218 ro>sh >, and

restore <7725 shuwb > thee unto thy place <3653 ken >: and thou shalt deliver

<5414 nathan > Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > cup <3563 kowc > into his hand <3027

yad >, after the former <7223 ri>shown > manner <4941 mishpat > when <0834

14 But think <2142 zakar > on me when <0834 >aher > it shall be well <3190

yatab > with thee, and shew <6213 <asah > kindness <2617 checed >, I pray

<4994 na> > thee, unto me, and make mention <2142 zakar > of me unto Pharaoh

<6547 Par<oh >, and bring <3318 yatsa> > me out of this <2088 zeh > house

<1004 bayith >:

15 For indeed I was stolen <1589 ganab > away out of the land <0776 >erets >

of the Hebrews <5680 <Ibriy >: and here <6311 poh > also <1571 gam > have I

done <6213 <asah > nothing that they should put <7760 suwm > me into the

dungeon <0953 bowr >.

16 When the chief <8269 sar > baker <0644 >aphah > saw <7200 ra>ah > that

the interpretation <6623 pithrown > was good <2896 towb >, he said <0559

>amar > unto Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, I also <0637 >aph > [was] in my dream

<2472 chalowm >, and, behold <2009 hinneh >, [I had] three <7969 shalowsh >

white <2751 choriy > baskets <5536 cal > on <5921 <al > my head <7218 ro>sh

17 And in the uppermost <5945 >elyown > basket <5536 cal > [there was] of

all <3605 kol > manner of bakemeats for Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >; and the birds

<5775 <owph > did eat <0398 >akal > them out of the basket <5536 cal > upon

my head <7218 ro>sh >.

18 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > answered <6030 <anah > and said <0559 >amar >,

This <2088 zeh > [is] the interpretation <6623 pithrown > thereof: The three

<7969 shalowsh > baskets <5536 cal > [are] three <7969 shalowsh > days <3117

yowm >:

19 Yet <5750 <owd > within three <7969 shalowsh > days <3117 yowm > shall

Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > lift <5375 nasa> > up thy head <7218 ro>sh > from off

<5921 <al > thee, and shall hang <8518 talah > thee on <5921 <al > a tree

<6086 <ets >; and the birds <5775 <owph > shall eat <0398 >akal > thy flesh

<1320 basar > from off <5921 <al > thee.

20. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass the third <7992 sh@liyshiy > day <3117

yowm >, [which was] Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > birthday, that he made <6213

<asah > a feast <4960 mishteh > unto all <3605 kol > his servants <5650 <ebed

21 And he restored <7725 shuwb > the chief <8269 sar > butler <4945 mashqeh

<3709 kaph >:

22 But he hanged <8518 talah > the chief <8269 sar > baker <0644 >aphah >:

as Joseph <3130 Yowceph > had interpreted <6622 pathar > to them.

23 Yet did not the chief <8269 sar > butler <4945 mashqeh > remember <2142

zakar > Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, but forgat <7911 shakach > him.

Genesis 41

1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass at the end <7093 qets > of two full

and stood <5975 <amad > by the [other] kine <6510 parah > upon the brink

<8193 saphah > of the river <2975 y@<or >.

4 And the ill <7451 ra< > favoured <4758 mar>eh > and leanfleshed kine <6510

favoured <4758 mar>eh > and fat <1277 bariy> > kine <6510 parah >. So Pharaoh

<6547 Par<oh > awoke <3364 yaqats >.

5 And he slept <3462 yashen > and dreamed <2492 chalam > the second <8145

sheniy > time: and, behold <2009 hinneh >, seven <7651 sheba< > ears <7641

shibbol > of corn came <5927 <alah > up upon one <0259 >echad > stalk <7070

qaneh >, rank <1277 bariy> > and good <2896 towb >.

6 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, seven <7651 sheba< > thin <1851 daq > ears

<7641 shibbol > and blasted <7710 shadaph > with the east <6921 qadiym > wind

sprung <6779 tsamach > up after <0310 >achar > them.

7 And the seven thin <1851 daq > ears <7641 shibbol > devoured <1104 bala< >

the seven <7651 sheba< > rank <1277 bariy> > and full <4392 male> > ears

<7641 shibbol >. And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > awoke <3364 yaqats >, and, behold

<2009 hinneh >, [it was] a dream <2472 chalowm >.

8 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the morning <1242 boqer > that his

spirit <7307 ruwach > was troubled <6470 pa<am >; and he sent <7971 shalach >

and called <7121 qara> > for all <3605 kol > the magicians <2748 chartom > of

Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, and all <3605 kol > the wise <2450 chakam > men

chalowm >; but [there was] none <0369 >ayin > that could interpret <6622

pathar > them unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >.

9. Then spake <1696 dabar > the chief <8269 sar > butler <4945 mashqeh >

unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, saying <0559 >amar >, I do remember <2142 zakar

10 Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > was wroth <7107 qatsaph > with his servants <5650

<ebed >, and put <5414 nathan > me in ward <4929 mishmar > in the captain

<8269 sar > of the guard's <2876 tabbach > house <1004 bayith >, [both] me

and the chief <8269 sar > baker <0644 >aphah >:

11 And we dreamed <2492 chalam > a dream <2472 chalowm > in one <0259 >echad

12 And [there <8033 sham > was] there <8033 sham > with us a young <5288

na<ar > man <0376 >iysh >, an Hebrew <5680 <Ibriy >, servant <5650 <ebed > to

the captain <8269 sar > of the guard <2876 tabbach >; and we told <5608

caphar > him, and he interpreted <6622 pathar > to us our dreams <2472

chalowm >; to each man <0376 >iysh > according to his dream <2472 chalowm >

he did interpret <6622 pathar >.

13 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, as he interpreted <6622 pathar > to

us, so <3651 ken > it was; me he restored <7725 shuwb > unto mine office

<3653 ken >, and him he hanged <8518 talah >.

14 Then Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > sent <7971 shalach > and called <7121 qara> >

Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, and they brought <7323 ruwts > him hastily <7323

ruwts > out of the dungeon <0953 bowr >: and he shaved <1548 galach >

[himself], and changed <2498 chalaph > his raiment <8071 simlah >, and came

<0935 bow> > in unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >.

15 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph <3130 Yowceph

16 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > answered <6030 <anah > Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >,

saying <0559 >amar >, [It is] not in me: God <0430 >elohiym > shall give

Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > an answer <6030 <anah > of peace <7965 shalowm >.

17. And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <1696 dabar > unto Joseph <3130 Yowceph

19 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, seven <7651 sheba< > other <0312 >acher >

20 And the lean <7534 raq > and the ill <7451 ra< > favoured kine <6510

21 And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known <3045 yada< > that

they had eaten them; but they [were] still ill <7451 ra< > favoured, as at

the beginning <8462 t@chillah >. So I awoke <3364 yaqats >.

22 And I saw <7200 ra>ah > in my dream <2472 chalowm >, and, behold <2009

23 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, seven <7651 sheba< > ears <7641 shibbol >,

24 And the thin <1851 daq > ears <7641 shibbol > devoured <1104 bala< > the

25 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh

26 The seven <7651 sheba< > good <2896 towb > kine <6510 parah > [are] seven

the dream <2472 chalowm > [is] one <0259 >echad >.

27 And the seven <7651 sheba< > thin <7534 raq > and ill <7451 ra< >

favoured kine <6510 parah > that came <5927 <alah > up after <0310 >achar >

them [are] seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh >; and the seven <7651

the east <6921 qadiym > wind shall be seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh

28 This [is] the thing <1697 dabar > which <0834 >aher > I have spoken <1696

[is] about to do <6213 <asah > he sheweth <7200 ra>ah > unto Pharaoh <6547

29 Behold <2009 hinneh >, there come <0935 bow> > seven <7651 sheba< > years

<8141 shaneh > of great <1419 gadowl > plenty <7647 saba< > throughout all

<3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >:

30 And there shall arise <6965 quwm > after <0310 >achar > them seven <7651

the plenty <7647 saba< > shall be forgotten <7911 shakach > in the land <0776

31 And the plenty <7647 saba< > shall not be known <3045 yada< > in the land

<0776 >erets > by reason <6440 paniym > of that famine <7458 ra<ab >

following; for it [shall be] very <3966 m@<od > grievous <3515 kabed >.

32 And for that the dream <2472 chalowm > was doubled <8138 shanah > unto

Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > twice <6471 pa<am >; [it is] because <3588 kiy > the

33. Now <6258 <attah > therefore let Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > look <7200 ra>ah

34 Let Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > do <6213 <asah > [this], and let him appoint

years <8141 shaneh >.

35 And let them gather <6908 qabats > all <3605 kol > the food <0400 >okel >

of those <0428 >el-leh > good <2896 towb > years <8141 shaneh > that come

36 And that food <0400 >okel > shall be for store <6487 piqqadown > to the

37 And the thing <1697 dabar > was good <3190 yatab > in the eyes <5869

42 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > took <5493 cuwr > off his ring <2885 tabba<ath

44 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph <3130 Yowceph

45 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > called <7121 qara> > Joseph's <3130 Yowceph >

Joseph <3130 Yowceph > went <3318 yatsa> > out over <5921 <al > [all] the

47 And in the seven <7651 sheba< > plenteous <7647 saba< > years <8141

shaneh > the earth <0776 >erets > brought <6213 <asah > forth <6213 <asah >

48 And he gathered <6908 qabats > up all <3605 kol > the food <0400 >okel >

50 And unto Joseph <3130 Yowceph > were born <3205 yalad > two <8147

53 And the seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh > of plenteousness <7647

54 And the seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh > of dearth <7458 ra<ab >

Genesis 42

1. Now when Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > saw <7200 ra>ah > that there was corn

<7668 sheber > in Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559

2 And he said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, I have heard <8085

3 And Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > ten <6235 <eser > brethren <0251 >ach > went

5 And the sons <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > came <0935 bow> > to

6 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > [was] the governor <7989 shalliyt > over <5921

Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > brethren <0251 >ach > came <0935 bow> >, and bowed

<7812 shachah > down <7812 shachah > themselves before him [with] their faces

<0639 >aph > to the earth <0776 >erets >.

7. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > saw <7200 ra>ah > his brethren <0251 >ach >,

and he knew <5234 nakar > them, but made himself strange <5234 nakar > unto

them, and spake <1696 dabar > roughly <7186 qasheh > unto them; and he said

<0559 >amar > unto them, Whence <0370 >aiyn > come <0935 bow> > ye? And they

said <0559 >amar >, From the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an > to

buy <7666 shabar > food <0400 >okel >.

8 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > knew <5234 nakar > his brethren <0251 >ach >,

but they knew <3045 yada< > not him.

9 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > remembered <2142 zakar > the dreams <2472

chalowm > which <0834 >aher > he dreamed <2492 chalam > of them, and said

<0559 >amar > unto them, Ye [are] spies <7270 ragal >; to see <7200 ra>ah >

the nakedness <6172 <ervah > of the land <0776 >erets > ye are come <0935

bow> >.

10 And they said <0559 >amar > unto him, Nay <3808 lo> >, my lord <0113

11 We [are] all <3605 kol > one <0259 >echad > man's <0376 >iysh > sons

<1121 ben >; we [are] true <3651 ken > [men], thy servants <5650 <ebed > are

no <3808 lo> > spies <7270 ragal >.

12 And he said <0559 >amar > unto them, Nay <3808 lo> >, but to see <7200

ra>ah > the nakedness <6172 <ervah > of the land <0776 >erets > ye are come

<0935 bow> >.

13 And they said <0559 >amar >, Thy servants <5650 <ebed > [are] twelve

brethren <0251 >ach >, the sons <1121 ben > of one <0259 >echad > man <0376

<2009 hinneh >, the youngest <6996 qatan > [is] this day <3117 yowm > with

our father <1>, and one <0259 >echad > [is] not.

14 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto them, That [is it]

that I spake <1696 dabar > unto you, saying <0559 >amar >, Ye [are] spies

<7270 ragal >:

15 Hereby <2063 zo>th > ye shall be proved <0974 bachan >: By the life <2416

16 Send <7971 shalach > one <0259 >echad > of you, and let him fetch <3947

laqach > your brother <0251 >ach >, and ye shall be kept <0631 >acar > in

prison, that your words <1697 dabar > may be proved <0974 bachan >, whether

[there be any] truth <0571 >emeth > in you: or else by the life <2416 chay >

of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > surely ye [are] spies <7270 ragal >.

17 And he put <0622 >acaph > them all <0622 >acaph > together into <0413 >el

18 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto them the third <7992

sh@liyshiy > day <3117 yowm >, This <2063 zo>th > do <6213 <asah >, and live

19 If <0518 >im > ye [be] true <3651 ken > [men], let one <0259 >echad > of

your brethren <0251 >ach > be bound <0631 >acar > in the house <1004 bayith >

of your prison <4929 mishmar >: go <3212 yalak > ye, carry <0935 bow> > corn

<7668 sheber > for the famine <7459 r@abown > of your houses <1004 bayith >:

20 But bring <0935 bow> > your youngest <6996 qatan > brother <0251 >ach >

unto me; so shall your words <1697 dabar > be verified <0539 >aman >, and ye

shall not die <4191 muwth >. And they did <6213 <asah > so <3651 ken >.

21. And they said <0559 >amar > one <0376 >iysh > to another <0250 >Ezrachiy

brother <0251 >ach >, in that we saw <7200 ra>ah > the anguish <6869 tsarah >

of his soul <5315 nephesh >, when he besought <2603 chanan > us, and we would

not hear <8085 shama< >; therefore is this <2063 zo>th > distress <6869

22 And Reuben <7205 R@>uwben > answered <6030 <anah > them, saying <0559

shama< >? therefore <1571 gam >, behold <2009 hinneh >, also <1571 gam > his

blood <1818 dam > is required <1875 darash >.

23 And they knew <3045 yada< > not that Joseph <3130 Yowceph > understood

<8085 shama< > [them]; for he spake unto them by an interpreter <3887 luwts

24 And he turned <5437 cabab > himself about from them, and wept <1058 bakah

and bound <0631 >acar > him before their eyes <5869 <ayin >.

25 Then Joseph <3130 Yowceph > commanded <6680 tsavah > to fill <4390 male>

for the way <1870 derek >: and thus <3651 ken > did <6213 <asah > he unto

them.

26 And they laded <5375 nasa> > their asses <2543 chamowr > with the corn

<7668 sheber >, and departed <3212 yalak > thence <8033 sham >.

27 And as one <0259 >echad > of them opened <6605 pathach > his sack <8242

mouth <6310 peh >.

28 And he said <0559 >amar > unto his brethren <0251 >ach >, My money <3701

keceph > is restored <7725 shuwb >; and, lo <2009 hinneh >, [it is] even in

my sack <0572 >amtachath >: and their heart <3820 leb > failed <3318 yatsa> >

[them], and they were afraid <2729 charad >, saying <0559 >amar > one <0376

29. And they came <0935 bow> > unto Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > their father <1>

unto the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >, and told <5046 nagad

30 The man <0376 >iysh >, [who is] the lord <0113 >adown > of the land <0776

nathan > us for spies <7270 ragal > of the country <0776 >erets >.

31 And we said <0559 >amar > unto him, We [are] true <3651 ken > [men]; we

are no <3808 lo> > spies <7270 ragal >:

32 We [be] twelve brethren <0251 >ach >, sons <1121 ben > of our father <1>;

one <0259 >echad > [is] not, and the youngest <6996 qatan > [is] this day

<3117 yowm > with our father <1> in the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667

K@na<an >.

33 And the man <0376 >iysh >, the lord <0113 >adown > of the country <0776

and be gone <3212 yalak >:

34 And bring <0935 bow> > your youngest <6996 qatan > brother <0251 >ach >

unto me: then shall I know <3045 yada< > that ye [are] no <3808 lo> > spies

<5414 nathan > you your brother <0251 >ach >, and ye shall traffick <5503

cachar > in the land <0776 >erets >.

35 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass as they emptied <7324 ruwq > their

sacks <8242 saq >, that, behold <2009 hinneh >, every man's <0376 >iysh >

bundle <6872 ts@rowr > of money <3701 keceph > [was] in his sack <8242 saq >:

and when [both] they and their father <1> saw <7200 ra>ah > the bundles <6872

ts@rowr > of money <3701 keceph >, they were afraid <3372 yare> >.

36 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > their father <1> said <0559 >amar > unto them,

Me have ye bereaved <7921 shakol > [of my children]: Joseph <3130 Yowceph >

[is] not, and Simeon <8095 Shim<own > [is] not, and ye will take <3947 laqach

37 And Reuben <7205 R@>uwben > spake <0559 >amar > unto his father <1>,

saying <0559 >amar >, Slay <4191 muwth > my two <8147 sh@nayim > sons <1121

thee again <7725 shuwb >.

38 And he said <0559 >amar >, My son <1121 ben > shall not go <3381 yarad >

down <3381 yarad > with you; for his brother <0251 >ach > is dead <4191 muwth

my gray <7872 seybah > hairs with sorrow <3015 yagown > to the grave <7585

Genesis 43

1. And the famine <7458 ra<ab > [was] sore <3515 kabed > in the land <0776

2 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when <0834 >aher > they had eaten <0398

unto them, Go <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb >, buy <7666 shabar > us a

little <4592 m@<at > food <0400 >okel >.

3 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > spake <0559 >amar > unto him, saying <0559

unto us, saying <0559 >amar >, Ye shall not see <7200 ra>ah > my face <6440

4 If <0518 >im > thou wilt send <7971 shalach > our brother <0251 >ach >

with us, we will go <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > and buy <7666 shabar >

5 But if <0518 >im > thou wilt not send <7971 shalach > [him], we will not

go <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad >: for the man <0376 >iysh > said <0559

except <1115 biltiy > your brother <0251 >ach > [be] with you.

6 And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > said <0559 >amar >, Wherefore <4100 mah >

dealt ye [so] ill <7489 ra<a< > with me, [as] to tell <5046 nagad > the man

7 And they said <0559 >amar >, The man <0376 >iysh > asked <7592 sha>al > us

straitly of our state, and of our kindred <4138 mowledeth >, saying <0559

[another] brother <0251 >ach >? and we told <5046 nagad > him according <5921

could we certainly know <3045 yada< > that he would say <0559 >amar >, Bring

<3381 yarad > your brother <0251 >ach > down <3381 yarad >?

8 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > said <0559 >amar > unto Israel <3478 Yisra>el >

his father <1>, Send <7971 shalach > the lad <5288 na<ar > with me, and we

9 I will be surety <6148 <arab > for him; of my hand <3027 yad > shalt thou

require <1245 baqash > him: if <0518 >im > I bring <0935 bow> > him not unto

thee, and set <3322 yatsag > him before <6440 paniym > thee, then let me bear

10 For except <3884 luwle> > we had lingered <4102 mahahh >, surely <3588

kiy > now <6258 <attah > we had returned <7725 shuwb > this <2088 zeh >

11. And their father <1> Israel <3478 Yisra>el > said <0559 >amar > unto

12 And take <3947 laqach > double <4932 mishneh > money <3701 keceph > in

13 Take <3947 laqach > also your brother <0251 >ach >, and arise <6965 quwm

14 And God <0410 >el > Almighty <7706 Shadday > give <5414 nathan > you

mercy <7356 racham > before <6440 paniym > the man <0376 >iysh >, that he may

send <7971 shalach > away your other <0312 >acher > brother <0251 >ach >, and

Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn >. If <0834 >aher > I be bereaved <7921 shakol > [of

my children], I am bereaved <7921 shakol >.

15. And the men <0582 >enowsh > took <3947 laqach > that present <4503

minchah >, and they took <3947 laqach > double <4932 mishneh > money <3701

Mitsrayim >, and stood <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym > Joseph <3130

16 And when <3588 kiy > Joseph <3130 Yowceph > saw <7200 ra>ah > Benjamin

<1004 bayith >, Bring <0935 bow> > [these] men <0582 >enowsh > home <1004

bayith >, and slay <2875 Tebach >, and make ready <3559 kuwn >; for [these]

men <0582 >enowsh > shall dine <0398 >akal > with me at noon <6672 tsohar >.

17 And the man <0376 >iysh > did <6213 <asah > as Joseph <3130 Yowceph >

bade <0559 >amar >; and the man <0376 >iysh > brought <0935 bow> > the men

18 And the men <0582 >enowsh > were afraid <3372 yare> >, because <3588 kiy

fall <5307 naphal > upon us, and take <3947 laqach > us for bondmen <5650

19 And they came <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash > to the steward of

Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > house <1004 bayith >, and they communed <1696 dabar

20 And said <0559 >amar >, O sir <0113 >adown >, we came <3381 yarad >

indeed down <3381 yarad > at the first <8462 t@chillah > time <8462 t@chillah

21 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when <3588 kiy > we came <0935 bow> >

22 And other <0312 >acher > money <3701 keceph > have we brought <3381 yarad

23 And he said <0559 >amar >, Peace <7965 shalowm > [be] to you, fear <3372

he brought <3318 yatsa> > Simeon <8095 Shim<own > out unto them.

24 And the man <0376 >iysh > brought <0935 bow> > the men <0582 >enowsh >

into Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > house <1004 bayith >, and gave <5414 nathan >

25 And they made ready <3559 kuwn > the present <4503 minchah > against

for they heard <8085 shama< > that they should eat <0398 >akal > bread <3899

26. And when Joseph <3130 Yowceph > came <0935 bow> > home <1004 bayith >,

they brought <0935 bow> > him the present <4503 minchah > which <0834 >aher >

27 And he asked <7592 sha>al > them of [their] welfare <7965 shalowm >, and

said <0559 >amar >, [Is] your father <1> well <7965 shalowm >, the old <2205

28 And they answered <0559 >amar >, Thy servant <5650 <ebed > our father <1>

[is] in good <7965 shalowm > health <7965 shalowm >, he [is] yet <5750 <owd >

alive <2416 chay >. And they bowed <6915 qadad > down <6915 qadad > their

heads, and made obeisance <7812 shachah >.

29 And he lifted <5375 nasa> > up his eyes <5869 <ayin >, and saw <7200

ra>ah > his brother <0251 >ach > Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn >, his mother's

your younger <6996 qatan > brother <0251 >ach >, of whom <0834 >aher > ye

spake <0559 >amar > unto me? And he said <0559 >amar >, God <0430 >elohiym >

be gracious <2603 chanan > unto thee, my son <1121 ben >.

30 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > made haste <4116 mahar >; for his bowels <7358

rechem > did yearn <3648 kamar > upon his brother <0251 >ach >: and he sought

<1245 baqash > [where] to weep <1058 bakah >; and he entered <0935 bow> >

into [his] chamber <2315 cheder >, and wept <1058 bakah > there <8033 sham >.

31 And he washed <7364 rachats > his face <6440 paniym >, and went <3318

yatsa> > out, and refrained <0662 >aphaq > himself, and said <0559 >amar >,

Set <7760 suwm > on bread <3899 lechem >.

32 And they set <7760 suwm > on for him by himself, and for them by

themselves <0905 bad >, and for the Egyptians <4713 Mitsriy >, which did eat

<0398 >akal > with him, by themselves <0905 bad >: because <3588 kiy > the

Egyptians <4713 Mitsriy > might <3201 yakol > not eat <0398 >akal > bread

<3899 lechem > with the Hebrews <5680 <Ibriy >; for that [is] an abomination

<8441 tow<ebah > unto the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim >.

33 And they sat <3427 yashab > before <6440 paniym > him, the firstborn

<1060 b@kowr > according to his birthright <1062 b@kowrah >, and the youngest

<6810 tsa<iyr > according to his youth <6812 ts@<iyrah >: and the men <0582

34 And he took <5375 nasa> > [and sent <7971 shalach >] messes <4864 mas>eth

mess <4864 mas>eth > was five <2568 chamesh > times <3027 yad > so much <7235

<7937 shakar > with him.

Genesis 44

1. And he commanded <6680 tsavah > the steward <5921 <al > of his house

<1004 bayith >, saying <0559 >amar >, Fill <4390 male> > the men's <0582

every man's <0376 >iysh > money <3701 keceph > in his sack's <0572 >amtachath

2 And put <7760 suwm > my cup <1375 g@biya< >, the silver <3701 keceph > cup

<1375 g@biya< >, in the sack's <0572 >amtachath > mouth <6310 peh > of the

youngest <6996 qatan >, and his corn <7668 sheber > money <3701 keceph >. And

he did <6213 <asah > according to the word <1697 dabar > that Joseph <3130

Yowceph > had spoken <1696 dabar >.

3 As soon as the morning <1242 boqer > was light <0216 >owr >, the men <0582

>enowsh > were sent <7971 shalach > away, they and their asses <2543 chamowr

4 [And] when they were gone <3318 yatsa> > out of the city <5892 <iyr >,

[and] not [yet] far <7368 rachaq > off, Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559

them, say <0559 >amar > unto them, Wherefore <4100 mah > have ye rewarded

<7999 shalam > evil <7451 ra< > for good <2896 towb >?

5 [Is] not this <2088 zeh > [it] in which <0834 >aher > my lord <0113 >adown

ye have done evil <7489 ra<a< > in so <0834 >aher > doing <6213 <asah >.

6 And he overtook <5381 nasag > them, and he spake <1696 dabar > unto them

these <0411 >el > same words <1697 dabar >.

7 And they said <0559 >amar > unto him, Wherefore <4100 mah > saith <1696

dabar > my lord <0113 >adown > these <0428 >el-leh > words <1697 dabar >? God

forbid <2486 chaliylah > that thy servants <5650 <ebed > should do <6213

<asah > according to this <2088 zeh > thing <1697 dabar >:

8 Behold <2005 hen >, the money <3701 keceph >, which <0834 >aher > we found

<4672 matsa> > in our sacks <0572 >amtachath >' mouths <6310 peh >, we

brought <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > unto thee out of the land <0776

>erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >: how <0349 >eyk > then should we steal

<1589 ganab > out of thy lord's <0113 >adown > house <1004 bayith > silver

<3701 keceph > or <0176 >ow > gold <2091 zahab >?

9 With whomsoever <0834 >aher > of thy servants <5650 <ebed > it be found

<4672 matsa> >, both let him die <4191 muwth >, and we also <1571 gam > will

be my lord's <0113 >adown > bondmen <5650 <ebed >.

10 And he said <0559 >amar >, Now <6258 <attah > also <1571 gam > [let] it

[be] according unto your words <1697 dabar >: he with whom <0834 >aher > it

is found <4672 matsa> > shall be my servant <5650 <ebed >; and ye shall be

blameless <5355 naqiy >.

11 Then they speedily <4116 mahar > took <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad >

every man <0376 >iysh > his sack <0572 >amtachath > to the ground <0776

>erets >, and opened <6605 pathach > every man <0376 >iysh > his sack <0572

>amtachath >.

12 And he searched <2664 chaphas >, [and] began <2490 chalal > at the eldest

<1419 gadowl >, and left <3615 kalah > at the youngest <6996 qatan >: and the

cup <1375 g@biya< > was found <4672 matsa> > in Benjamin's <1144 Binyamiyn >

sack <0572 >amtachath >.

13 Then they rent <7167 qara< > their clothes <8071 simlah >, and laded

<6006 <amac > every man <0376 >iysh > his ass <2543 chamowr >, and returned

<7725 shuwb > to the city <5892 <iyr >.

14 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > and his brethren <0251 >ach > came <0935 bow>

<owd > there <8033 sham >: and they fell <5307 naphal > before <6440 paniym >

him on the ground <0776 >erets >.

15 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto them, What <4100 mah >

deed <4639 ma<aseh > [is] this that ye have done <6213 <asah >? wot <3045

yada< > ye not that such a man <0376 >iysh > as I can certainly divine <5172

nachash >?

16 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > said <0559 >amar >, What <4100 mah > shall we

say <0559 >amar > unto my lord <0113 >adown >? what <4100 mah > shall we

speak <1696 dabar >? or how <4100 mah > shall we clear <6663 tsadaq >

ourselves? God <0430 >elohiym > hath found <4672 matsa> > out the iniquity

<5771 <avon > of thy servants <5650 <ebed >: behold <2009 hinneh >, we [are]

my lord's <0113 >adown > servants <5650 <ebed >, both <1571 gam > we, and

[he] also <1571 gam > with whom <0834 >aher > the cup <1375 g@biya< > is

found <4672 matsa> >.

17 And he said <0559 >amar >, God forbid <2486 chaliylah > that I should do

<6213 <asah > so <2063 zo>th >: [but] the man <0376 >iysh > in whose hand

<3027 yad > the cup <1375 g@biya< > is found <4672 matsa> >, he shall be my

servant <5650 <ebed >; and as for you, get <5927 <alah > you up in peace

<7965 shalowm > unto your father <1>.

18. Then Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > came <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash > unto

him, and said <0559 >amar >, Oh <0994 biy > my lord <0113 >adown >, let thy

servant <5650 <ebed >, I pray <4994 na> > thee, speak <1696 dabar > a word

<1697 dabar > in my lord's <0113 >adown > ears <0241 >ozen >, and let not

thine anger <0639 >aph > burn <2734 charah > against thy servant <5650 <ebed

19 My lord <0113 >adown > asked <7592 sha>al > his servants <5650 <ebed >,

saying <0559 >amar >, Have <3426 yesh > ye a father <1>, or <0176 >ow > a

brother <0251 >ach >?

20 And we said <0559 >amar > unto my lord <0113 >adown >, We have <3426 yesh

yeled > of his old <2208 zaqun > age, a little <6966 quwm > one; and his

brother <0251 >ach > is dead <4191 muwth >, and he alone <0905 bad > is left

<3498 yathar > of his mother <0517 >em >, and his father <1> loveth <0157

>ahab > him.

21 And thou saidst <0559 >amar > unto thy servants <5650 <ebed >, Bring

<3381 yarad > him down <3381 yarad > unto me, that I may set <7760 suwm >

mine eyes <5869 <ayin > upon him.

22 And we said <0559 >amar > unto my lord <0113 >adown >, The lad <5288

na<ar > cannot leave <5800 <azab > his father <1>: for [if] he should leave

<5800 <azab > his father, [his father] would die <4191 muwth >.

23 And thou saidst <0559 >amar > unto thy servants <5650 <ebed >, Except

your youngest <6996 qatan > brother <0251 >ach > come <3381 yarad > down

<3381 yarad > with you, ye shall see <7200 ra>ah > my face <6440 paniym > no

<3808 lo> > more <3254 yacaph >.

24 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass when <3588 kiy > we came <5927 <alah >

up unto thy servant <5650 <ebed > my father <1>, we told <5046 nagad > him

the words <1697 dabar > of my lord <0113 >adown >.

25 And our father <1> said <0559 >amar >, Go <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb

26 And we said <0559 >amar >, We cannot go <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad >:

if <0518 >im > our youngest <6996 qatan > brother <0251 >ach > be with us,

then will we go <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad >: for we may <3201 yakol >

not see <7200 ra>ah > the man's <0376 >iysh > face <6440 paniym >, except

<0369 >ayin > our youngest <6996 qatan > brother <0251 >ach > [be] with us.

27 And thy servant <5650 <ebed > my father <1> said <0559 >amar > unto us,

Ye know <3045 yada< > that my wife <0802 >ishshah > bare <3205 yalad > me two

<8147 sh@nayim > [sons]:

28 And the one <0259 >echad > went <3318 yatsa> > out from me, and I said

<0559 >amar >, Surely <0389 >ak > he is torn <2963 taraph > in pieces; and I

saw <7200 ra>ah > him not since <2008 hennah >:

29 And if <0518 >im > ye take <3947 laqach > this <2088 zeh > also <1571 gam

bring <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > my gray <7872 seybah > hairs with

sorrow <7451 ra< > to the grave <7585 sh@>owl >.

30 Now <6258 <attah > therefore when I come <0935 bow> > to thy servant

<5650 <ebed > my father <1>, and the lad <5288 na<ar > [be] not with us;

seeing that his life <5315 nephesh > is bound <7194 qashar > up in the lad's

<5288 na<ar > life;

31 It shall come <1961 hayah > to pass, when he seeth <7200 ra>ah > that the

lad <5288 na<ar > [is] not [with us], that he will die <4191 muwth >: and thy

servants <5650 <ebed > shall bring <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > the gray

<7872 seybah > hairs of thy servant <5650 <ebed > our father <1> with sorrow

<3015 yagown > to the grave <7585 sh@>owl >.

32 For thy servant <5650 <ebed > became <6148 <arab > surety <6148 <arab >

for the lad <5288 na<ar > unto my father <1>, saying <0559 >amar >, If <0518

>im > I bring <0935 bow> > him not unto thee, then I shall bear <2398 chata>

33 Now <6258 <attah > therefore, I pray <4994 na> > thee, let thy servant

<5650 <ebed > abide <3427 yashab > instead <8478 tachath > of the lad <5288

na<ar > a bondman <5650 <ebed > to my lord <0113 >adown >; and let the lad

<5288 na<ar > go <5927 <alah > up with his brethren <0251 >ach >.

34 For how <0349 >eyk > shall I go <5927 <alah > up to my father <1>, and

the lad <5288 na<ar > [be] not with me? lest <6435 pen > peradventure I see

<7200 ra>ah > the evil <7451 ra< > that shall come <4672 matsa> > on my

father <1>.

Genesis 45

1. Then Joseph <3130 Yowceph > could <3201 yakol > not refrain <0662 >aphaq

he cried <7121 qara> >, Cause every <3605 kol > man <0376 >iysh > to go <3318

2 And he wept aloud: and the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim > and the house <1004

bayith > of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > heard <8085 shama< >.

3 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto his brethren <0251 >ach

<6030 <anah > him; for they were troubled <0926 bahal > at his presence <6440

4 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto his brethren <0251 >ach

they came <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash >. And he said <0559 >amar >, I

[am] Joseph <3130 Yowceph > your brother <0251 >ach >, whom <0834 >aher > ye

5 Now <6258 <attah > therefore be not grieved <6087 <atsab >, nor <0408 >al

6 For these <2088 zeh > two years <8141 shaneh > [hath] the famine <7458

7 And God <0430 >elohiym > sent <7971 shalach > me before <6440 paniym > you

to preserve <7760 suwm > you a posterity <7611 sh@>eriyth > in the earth

<0776 >erets >, and to save <2421 chayah > your lives <2421 chayah > by a

great <1419 gadowl > deliverance <6413 p@leytah >.

8 So now <6258 <attah > [it was] not you [that] sent <7971 shalach > me

hither, but God <0430 >elohiym >: and he hath made <7760 suwm > me a father

the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.

9 Haste <4116 mahar > ye, and go <5927 <alah > up to my father <1>, and say

<0559 >amar > unto him, Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > thy son <1121

10 And thou shalt dwell <3427 yashab > in the land <0776 >erets > of Goshen

12 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, your eyes <5869 <ayin > see <7200 ra>ah >,

and the eyes <5869 <ayin > of my brother <0251 >ach > Benjamin <1144

13 And ye shall tell <5046 nagad > my father <1> of all <3605 kol > my glory

14 And he fell <5307 naphal > upon his brother <0251 >ach > Benjamin's <1144

15 Moreover he kissed <5401 nashaq > all <3605 kol > his brethren <0251 >ach

brethren <0251 >ach > talked <1696 dabar > with him.

16. And the fame <6963 qowl > thereof was heard <8085 shama< > in Pharaoh's

17 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph <3130 Yowceph

<3899 lechem > for all <3605 kol > their cattle <4735 miqneh > for that year

<8141 shaneh >.

18 When that year <8141 shaneh > was ended <8552 tamam >, they came <0935

bow> > unto him the second <8145 sheniy > year <8141 shaneh >, and said <0559

of my lord <0113 >adown >, but our bodies <1472 g@viyah >, and our lands

<0127 >adamah >:

19 Wherefore <4100 mah > shall we die <4191 muwth > before thine eyes <5869

<ayin >, both <1571 gam > we and our land <0127 >adamah >? buy <7069 qanah >

us and our land <0127 >adamah > for bread <3899 lechem >, and we and our land

<0127 >adamah > will be servants <5650 <ebed > unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >:

and give <5414 nathan > [us] seed <2233 zera< >, that we may live <2421

chayah >, and not die <4191 muwth >, that the land <0127 >adamah > be not

desolate <3456 yasham >.

20 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > bought <7069 qanah > all <3605 kol > the land

<0127 >adamah > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > for Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >; for

the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim > sold <4376 makar > every man <0376 >iysh >

his field <7704 sadeh >, because <3588 kiy > the famine <7458 ra<ab >

prevailed <2388 chazaq > over <5921 <al > them: so the land <0776 >erets >

became <1961 hayah > Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh >.

21 And as for the people <5971 <am >, he removed <5674 <abar > them to

cities <5892 <iyr > from [one] end <7097 qatseh > of the borders <1366 g@buwl

22 Only <7535 raq > the land <0127 >adamah > of the priests <3548 kohen >

bought <7069 qanah > he not; for the priests <3548 kohen > had a portion

<2706 choq > [assigned them] of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, and did eat <0398

gave <5414 nathan > them: wherefore they sold <4376 makar > not their lands

<0127 >adamah >.

23 Then Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto the people <5971 <am

24 And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass in the increase <8393 t@buw>ah >,

that ye shall give <5414 nathan > the fifth <2549 chamiyshiy > [part] unto

Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, and four <0702 >arba< > parts <3027 yad > shall be

your own, for seed <2233 zera< > of the field <7704 sadeh >, and for your

food <0400 >okel >, and for them of your households <1004 bayith >, and for

food <0398 >akal > for your little <2945 taph > ones.

25 And they said <0559 >amar >, Thou hast saved our lives <2421 chayah >:

let us find <4672 matsa> > grace <2580 chen > in the sight <5869 <ayin > of

my lord <0113 >adown >, and we will be Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > servants

<5650 <ebed >.

26 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > made <7760 suwm > it a law <2706 choq > over

<5921 <al > the land <0127 >adamah > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > unto this

<2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm >, [that] Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > should have the

fifth <2569 chomesh > [part]; except <7535 raq > the land <0127 >adamah > of

the priests <3548 kohen > only <0905 bad >, [which] became <1961 hayah > not

Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh >.

27. And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > dwelt <3427 yashab > in the land <0776

<1657 Goshen >; and they had possessions <0270 >achaz > therein, and grew

<6509 parah >, and multiplied <7235 rabah > exceedingly <3966 m@<od >.

28 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > lived <2421 chayah > in the land <0776 >erets >

of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > seventeen <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh >: so

the whole age <3117 yowm > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > was an hundred <3967

29 And the time <3117 yowm > drew nigh <7126 qarab > that Israel <3478

Yisra>el > must die <4191 muwth >: and he called <7121 qara> > his son <1121

pray <4994 na> > thee, in Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >:

30 But I will lie <7901 shakab > with my fathers <1>, and thou shalt carry

their buryingplace <6913 qeber >. And he said <0559 >amar >, I will do <6213

<asah > as thou hast said <1697 dabar >.

31 And he said <0559 >amar >, Swear <7650 shaba< > unto me. And he sware

<7650 shaba< > unto him. And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > bowed <7812 shachah >

himself upon the bed's <4296 mittah > head <7218 ro>sh >.

Genesis 48

1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass after <0310 >achar > these <0428

Yowceph >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, thy father <1> [is] sick <2470 chalah >:

and he took <3947 laqach > with him his two <8147 sh@nayim > sons <1121 ben

2 And [one] told <5046 nagad > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, and said <0559 >amar

3 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph <3130 Yowceph >,

God <0410 >el > Almighty <7706 Shadday > appeared <7200 ra>ah > unto me at

Luz <3870 Luwz > in the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >, and

blessed <1288 barak > me,

4 And said <0559 >amar > unto me, Behold <2005 hen >, I will make thee

fruitful <6509 parah >, and multiply <7235 rabah > thee, and I will make

<5414 nathan > of thee a multitude <6951 qahal > of people <5971 <am >; and

will give <5414 nathan > this <2063 zo>th > land <0776 >erets > to thy seed

5 And now <6258 <attah > thy two <8147 sh@nayim > sons <1121 ben >, Ephraim

6 And thy issue <4138 mowledeth >, which <0834 >aher > thou begettest <3205

<7121 qara> > after <5921 <al > the name <8034 shem > of their brethren <0251

7 And as for me, when I came <0935 bow> > from Padan <6307 Paddan >, Rachel

<7354 Rachel > died <4191 muwth > by me in the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan

<3667 K@na<an > in the way <1870 derek >, when <5750 <owd > yet <5750 <owd >

[there was] but a little <3530 kibrah > way <0776 >erets > to come <0935 bow>

huw> > [is] Bethlehem <1035 Beyth Lechem >.

8. And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > beheld <7200 ra>ah > Joseph's <3130 Yowceph >

sons <1121 ben >, and said <0559 >amar >, Who <4310 miy > [are] these <0428

9 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto his father <1>, They

[are] my sons <1121 ben >, whom <0834 >aher > God <0430 >elohiym > hath given

<5414 nathan > me in this <2088 zeh > [place]. And he said <0559 >amar >,

Bring <3947 laqach > them, I pray <4994 na> > thee, unto me, and I will bless

<1288 barak > them.

10 Now the eyes <5869 <ayin > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > were dim <3513

kabad > for age <2207 zoqen >, [so that] he could <3201 yakol > not see <7200

ra>ah >. And he brought <5066 nagash > them near <5066 nagash > unto him; and

he kissed <5401 nashaq > them, and embraced <2263 chabaq > them.

11 And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph <3130 Yowceph

also <1571 gam > thy seed <2233 zera< >.

12 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > brought <3318 yatsa> > them out from between

<5973 <im > his knees <1290 berek >, and he bowed <7812 shachah > himself

with his face <0639 >aph > to the earth <0776 >erets >.

13 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > took <3947 laqach > them both <8147 sh@nayim

yamiyn >, and brought <5066 nagash > [them] near <5066 nagash > unto him.

14 And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > stretched <7971 shalach > out his right <3225

yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn >, and laid <7896 shiyth > [it] upon Ephraim's

<0669 >Ephrayim > head <7218 ro>sh >, who <1931 huw> > [was] the younger

<6810 tsa<iyr >, and his left <8040 s@mo>wl > hand <8040 s@mo>wl > upon

Manasseh's <4519 M@nashsheh > head <7218 ro>sh >, guiding his hands <3027 yad

firstborn <1060 b@kowr >.

15 And he blessed <1288 barak > Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, and said <0559 >amar

unto this day <3117 yowm >,

16 The Angel <4397 mal>ak > which redeemed <1350 ga>al > me from all <3605

grow <1711 dagah > into a multitude <7230 rob > in the midst <7130 qereb > of

the earth <0776 >erets >.

17 And when Joseph <3130 Yowceph > saw <7200 ra>ah > that his father <1>

laid <7896 shiyth > his right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3027 yad > upon the head

<7218 ro>sh > of Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim >, it displeased him: and he held

<8557 temec > up his father's <1> hand <3027 yad >, to remove <5493 cuwr > it

from Ephraim's <0669 >Ephrayim > head <7218 ro>sh > unto Manasseh's <4519

M@nashsheh > head <7218 ro>sh >.

18 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto his father <1>, Not so

<3651 ken >, my father <1>: for this <2088 zeh > [is] the firstborn <1060

b@kowr >; put <7760 suwm > thy right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn > upon

his head <7218 ro>sh >.

19 And his father <1> refused <3985 ma>en >, and said <0559 >amar >, I know

20 And he blessed <1288 barak > them that day <3117 yowm >, saying <0559

<0559 >amar >, God <0430 >elohiym > make <6213 <asah > thee as Ephraim <0669

Genesis 49

1. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > called <7121 qara> > unto his sons <1121 ben >,

Genesis 50

1. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > fell <5307 naphal > upon his father's <1> face

2 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > commanded <6680 tsavah > his servants <5650

3 And forty <0705 >arba<iym > days <3117 yowm > were fulfilled <4390 male> >

for him; for so <3651 ken > are fulfilled <4390 male> > the days <3117 yowm >

4 And when the days <3117 yowm > of his mourning <1086 balah > were past

<attah > therefore let me go <5927 <alah > up, I pray <4994 na> > thee, and

bury <6912 qabar > my father <1>, and I will come <7725 shuwb > again <7725

6 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar >, Go <5927 <alah > up, and

bury <6912 qabar > thy father <1>, according as he made thee swear <7650

shaba< >.

7. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > went <5927 <alah > up to bury <6912 qabar >

his father <1>: and with him went <5927 <alah > up all <3605 kol > the

servants <5650 <ebed > of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, the elders <2205 zaqen > of

his house <1004 bayith >, and all <3605 kol > the elders <2205 zaqen > of the

8 And all <3605 kol > the house <1004 bayith > of Joseph <3130 Yowceph >,

and his brethren <0251 >ach >, and his father's <1> house <1004 bayith >:

only <7535 raq > their little <2945 taph > ones, and their flocks <6629 tso>n

9 And there went <5927 <alah > up with him both <1571 gam > chariots <7393

10 And they came <0935 bow> > to the threshingfloor <1637 goren > of Atad

11 And when the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of the land <0776 >erets >, the

Canaanites <3669 K@na<aniy >, saw <7200 ra>ah > the mourning <60> in the

floor <1637 goren > of Atad <0329 >atad >, they said <0559 >amar >, This

<2088 zeh > [is] a grievous <3515 kabed > mourning <60> to the Egyptians

<4714 Mitsrayim >: wherefore the name <8034 shem > of it was called <7121

qara> > Abelmizraim <67>, which <0834 >aher > [is] beyond <5676 <eber >

Jordan <3383 Yarden >.

12 And his sons <1121 ben > did <6213 <asah > unto him according <3651 ken >

as he commanded <6680 tsavah > them:

13 For his sons <1121 ben > carried <5375 nasa> > him into the land <0776

<4631 m@<arah > of the field <7704 sadeh > of Machpelah <4375 Makpelah >,

which <0834 >aher > Abraham <85> bought <7069 qanah > with the field <7704

14 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > returned <7725 shuwb > into Egypt <4714

<5927 <alah > up with him to bury <6912 qabar > his father <1>, after <0310

15. And when Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > brethren <0251 >ach > saw <7200 ra>ah

Joseph <3130 Yowceph > will peradventure <3863 luw> > hate <7852 satam > us,

and will certainly requite <7725 shuwb > us all <3605 kol > the evil <7451

16 And they sent a messenger <6680 tsavah > unto Joseph <3130 Yowceph >,

saying <0559 >amar >, Thy father <1> did command <6680 tsavah > before <6440

paniym > he died <4194 maveth >, saying <0559 >amar >,

17 So <3541 koh > shall ye say <0559 >amar > unto Joseph <3130 Yowceph >,

Forgive <5375 nasa> >, I pray <0577 >anna> > thee now <4994 na> >, the

<6588 pesha< > of the servants <5650 <ebed > of the God <0430 >elohiym > of

thy father <1>. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > wept <1058 bakah > when they spake

18 And his brethren <0251 >ach > also <1571 gam > went <3212 yalak > and

fell <5307 naphal > down before his face <6440 paniym >; and they said <0559

19 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto them, Fear <3372 yare>

20 But as for you, ye thought <2803 chashab > evil <7451 ra< > against <5921

21 Now <6258 <attah > therefore fear <3372 yare> > ye not: I will nourish

<3557 kuwl > you, and your little <2945 taph > ones. And he comforted <5162

22. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > dwelt <3427 yashab > in Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim

lived <2421 chayah > an hundred <3967 me>ah > and ten <6235 <eser > years

23 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > saw <7200 ra>ah > Ephraim's <0669 >Ephrayim >

children <1121 ben > of the third <8029 shillesh > [generation]: the children

Manasseh <4519 M@nashsheh > were brought <3205 yalad > up upon Joseph's <3130

24 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto his brethren <0251
