: 18 . And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar > , [ It is ] not good <2896 towb > that the man <0120 >adam > should be alone <0905 bad > ; I will make <6213 <asah > him an help <5828 <ezer > meet <5828 <ezer > for him .

: 19 And out of the ground <0127 >adamah > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > formed <3335 yatsar > every <3605 kol > beast <2416 chay > of the field <7704 sadeh > , and every <3605 kol > fowl <5775 <owph > of the air <8064 shamayim > ; and brought <0935 bow> > [ them ] unto Adam <0120 >adam > to see <7200 ra>ah > what <4100 mah > he would call <7121 qara> > them : and whatsoever Adam <0120 >adam > called <7121 qara> > every living <2416 chay > creature <5315 nephesh > , that [ was ] the name <8034 shem > thereof .

And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > caused a deep <8639 tardemah > sleep <3462 yashen > to fall <5307 naphal > upon Adam <0121 >Adam > , and he slept <3462 yashen > : and he took <3947 laqach > one <0259 >echad > of his ribs <6763 tsela< > , and closed <5462 cagar > up the flesh <1320 basar > instead <8478 tachath > thereof ;

Now the serpent <5175 nachash > was more subtil <6175 <aruwm > than any <3605 kol > beast <2416 chay > of the field <7704 sadeh > which <0834 >aher > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > had made <6213 <asah > . And he said <0559 >amar > unto the woman <0802 >ishshah > , Yea , hath God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar > , Ye shall not eat <0398 >akal > of every <3605 kol > tree <6086 <ets > of the garden <1588 gan > ?

: 19 For I know <3045 yada< > him , that he will command <6680 tsavah > his children <1121 ben > and his household <1004 bayith > after <0310 >achar > him , and they shall keep <8104 shamar > the way <1870 derek > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > , to do <6213 <asah > justice <6666 ts@daqah > and judgment <4941 mishpat > ; that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > may bring <0935 bow> > upon Abraham <85> that which <0834 >aher > he hath spoken <1696 dabar > of him .

: 20 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > , Because <3588 kiy > the cry <2201 za<aq > of Sodom <5467 C@dom > and Gomorrah <6017 <Amorah > is great <7227 rab > , and because <3588 kiy > their sin <2403 chatta>ah > is very <3966 m@<od > grievous <3515 kabed > ;

And he said <0559 >amar > , I will not destroy <7843 shachath > [ it ] for twenty s <6242 <esriym > sake <5668 <abuwr > .

: 32 And he said <0559 >amar > , Oh <4994 na> > let not the Lord <0136 >Adonay > be angry <2734 charah > , and I will speak <1696 dabar > yet <0389 >ak > but this <6471 pa<am > once <6471 pa<am > : Peradventure <0194 >uwlay > ten <6235 <eser > shall be found <4672 matsa> > there <8033 sham > . And he said <0559 >amar > , I will not destroy <7843 shachath > [ it ] for ten s <6235 <eser > sake <5668 <abuwr > .

: 1 . And there came <0935 bow> > two <8147 sh@nayim > angels <4397 mal>ak > to Sodom <5467 C@dom > at even <6153 <ereb > ; and Lot <3876 Lowt > sat <3427 yashab > in the gate <8179 sha<ar > of Sodom <5467 C@dom > : and Lot <3876 Lowt > seeing <7200 ra>ah > [ them ] rose <6965 quwm > up to meet <7125 qir>ah > them ; and he bowed <7812 shachah > himself with his face <0639 >aph > toward the ground <0776 >erets > ;

: 2 And he said <0559 >amar > , Behold <2009 hinneh > now <4994 na> > , my lords <0113 >adown > , turn <5493 cuwr > in , I pray <4994 na> > you , into <0413 >el > your servant s <5650 <ebed > house <1004 bayith > , and tarry <3885 luwn > all <3885 luwn > night , and wash <7364 rachats > your feet <7272 regel > , and ye shall rise <7925 shakam > up early <7925 shakam > , and go <1980 halak > on your ways <1870 derek > . And they said <0559 >amar > , Nay ; but we will abide <3885 luwn > in the street <7339 r@chob > all <3885 luwn > night .

: 3 And he pressed <6484 patsar > upon them greatly <3966 m@<od > ; and they turned <5493 cuwr > in unto him , and entered <0935 bow> > into <0413 >el > his house <1004 bayith > ; and he made <6213 <asah > them a feast <4960 mishteh > , and did bake <0644 >aphah > unleavened <4682 matstsah > bread , and they did eat <0398 >akal > .

: 4 . But before <2962 terem > they lay <7901 shakab > down , the men <0582 >enowsh > of the city <5892 <iyr > , [ even ] the men <0582 >enowsh > of Sodom <5467 C@dom > , compassed <5437 cabab > the house <1004 bayith > round <5921 <al > , both old <2205 zaqen > and young <5288 na<ar > , all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > from every quarter <7098 qatsah > :

: 5 And they called <7121 qara> > unto Lot <3876 Lowt > , and said <0559 >amar > unto him , Where <0346 >ayeh > [ are ] the men <0582 >enowsh > which <0834 >aher > came <0935 bow> > in to thee this night <3915 layil > ? bring <3318 yatsa> > them out unto us , that we may know <3045 yada< > them .

: 6 And Lot <3876 Lowt > went <3318 yatsa> > out at the door <6607 pethach > unto them , and shut <5462 cagar > the door <1817 deleth > after <0310 >achar > him ,

: 7 And said <0559 >amar > , I pray <4994 na> > you , brethren <0251 >ach > , do not so wickedly <7489 ra<a< > .

: 8 Behold <2009 hinneh > now <4994 na> > , I have two <8147 sh@nayim > daughters <1363 gobahh > which <0834 >aher > have not known <3045 yada< > man <0376 >iysh > ; let me , I pray <4994 na> > you , bring <3318 yatsa> > them out unto you , and do <6213 <asah > ye to them as [ is ] good <2896 towb > in your eyes <5869 <ayin > : only unto these <0428 >el - leh > men <0582 >enowsh > do <6213 <asah > nothing ; for therefore came <0935 bow> > they under the shadow <6738 tsel > of my roof <6982 qowrah > .

: 9 And they said <0559 >amar > , Stand <5066 nagash > back <1973 hal@ah > . And they said <0559 >amar > [ again ] , This one <0259 >echad > [ fellow <7453 rea< > ] came <0935 bow> > in to sojourn <1481 guwr > , and he will needs be a judge <8199 shaphat > : now <6288 p@>orah > will we deal worse <7489 ra<a< > with thee , than with them . And they pressed <6484 patsar > sore <3966 m@<od > upon the man <0376 >iysh > , [ even ] Lot <3876 Lowt > , and came <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash > to break <7665 shabar > the door <1817 deleth > .

: 10 But the men <0582 >enowsh > put <7971 shalach > forth <7971 shalach > their hand <3027 yad > , and pulled <0935 bow> > Lot <3876 Lowt > into the house <1004 bayith > to them , and shut <5462 cagar > to the door <1817 deleth > .

: 11 And they smote <5221 nakah > the men <0582 >enowsh > that [ were ] at the door <6607 pethach > of the house <1004 bayith > with blindness <5575 canver > , both small <6996 qatan > and great <1419 gadowl > : so that they wearied <3811 la>ah > themselves to find <4672 matsa> > the door <6607 pethach > .

: 12 . And the men <0582 >enowsh > said <0559 >amar > unto Lot <3876 Lowt > , Hast thou here <6311 poh > any <4310 miy > besides <5750 <owd > ? son <1121 ben > in law <2859 chathan > , and thy sons <1121 ben > , and thy daughters <1363 gobahh > , and whatsoever thou hast in the city <5892 <iyr > , bring <3318 yatsa> > [ them ] out of this place <4725 maqowm > :

: 13 For we will destroy <7843 shachath > this <2088 zeh > place <4725 maqowm > , because <3588 kiy > the cry <6818 tsa<aqah > of them is waxen great <1431 gadal > before <0854 >eth > the face <6440 paniym > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ; and the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath sent <7971 shalach > us to destroy <7843 shachath > it .

: 14 And Lot <3876 Lowt > went <3318 yatsa> > out , and spake <1696 dabar > unto his sons <2860 chathan > in law <2859 chathan > , which married <3947 laqach > his daughters <1363 gobahh > , and said <0559 >amar > , Up , get <3318 yatsa> > you out of this <2088 zeh > place <4725 maqowm > ; for the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > will destroy <7843 shachath > this city <5892 <iyr > . But he seemed as one that mocked <6711 tsachaq > unto his sons <2860 chathan > in law <2859 chathan > .

: 15 . And when <3644 k@mow > the morning <7837 shachar > arose <5927 <alah > , then the angels <4397 mal>ak > hastened <0213 >uwts > Lot <3876 Lowt > , saying <0559 >amar > , Arise <6965 quwm > , take <3947 laqach > thy wife <0802 >ishshah > , and thy two <8147 sh@nayim > daughters <1363 gobahh > , which are here <4672 matsa> > ; lest <6435 pen > thou be consumed <5595 caphah > in the iniquity <5771 <avon > of the city <5892 <iyr > .

: 16 And while he lingered <4102 mahahh > , the men <0582 >enowsh > laid hold <2388 chazaq > upon his hand <3027 yad > , and upon the hand <3027 yad > of his wife <0802 >ishshah > , and upon the hand <3027 yad > of his two <8147 sh@nayim > daughters <1363 gobahh > ; the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > being merciful <2551 chemlah > unto him : and they brought <3318 yatsa> > him forth <3318 yatsa> > , and set <3240 yanach > him without <2351 chuwts > the city <5892 <iyr > .

: 17 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass , when they had brought <3318 yatsa> > them forth <3318 yatsa> > abroad <2351 chuwts > , that he said <0559 >amar > , Escape <4422 malat > for thy life <5315 nephesh > ; look <5027 nabat > not behind <0310 >achar > thee , neither <0408 >al > stay <5975 <amad > thou in all <3605 kol > the plain <3603 kikkar > ; escape <4422 malat > to the mountain <2022 har > , lest <6435 pen > thou be consumed <5595 caphah > .

: 18 And Lot <3876 Lowt > said <0559 >amar > unto them , Oh <4994 na> > , not so , my Lord <0113 >adown > :

: 19 Behold <2009 hinneh > now <4994 na> > , thy servant <5650 <ebed > hath found <4672 matsa> > grace <2580 chen > in thy sight <5869 <ayin > , and thou hast magnified <1431 gadal > thy mercy <2617 checed > , which <0834 >aher > thou hast shewed <6213 <asah > unto me in saving <2421 chayah > my life <5315 nephesh > ; and I cannot escape <4422 malat > to the mountain <2022 har > , lest <6435 pen > some evil <7451 ra< > take <1692 dabaq > me , and I die <4191 muwth > :

: 20 Behold <2009 hinneh > now <4994 na> > , this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > [ is ] near <7138 qarowb > to flee <5127 nuwc > unto , and it [ is ] a little <4705 mits<ar > one : Oh <4994 na> > , let me escape <4422 malat > thither , ( [ is ] it not a little <4705 mits<ar > one ? ) and my soul <5315 nephesh > shall live <2421 chayah > .

: 21 And he said <0559 >amar > unto him , See <2009 hinneh > , I have accepted <5375 nasa> > thee concerning this <2088 zeh > thing <1697 dabar > also <1571 gam > , that I will not overthrow <2015 haphak > this city <5892 <iyr > , for the which <0834 >aher > thou hast spoken <1696 dabar > .

: 22 Haste <4116 mahar > thee , escape <4422 malat > thither ; for I cannot do <6213 <asah > any thing till <5704 <ad > thou be come <0935 bow> > thither . Therefore the name <8034 shem > of the city <5892 <iyr > was called <7121 qara> > Zoar <6820 Tso<ar > .

: 23 The sun <8121 shemesh > was risen <3318 yatsa> > upon the earth <0776 >erets > when Lot <3876 Lowt > entered <0935 bow> > into Zoar <6820 Tso<ar > .

: 24 . Then the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > rained <4305 matar > upon Sodom <5467C@dom > and upon Gomorrah <6017 <Amorah > brimstone <1614 gophriyth > and fire <0784 >esh > from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > out of heaven <8064 shamayim > ;

: 25 And he overthrew <2015 haphak > those <0411 >el > cities <5892 <iyr > , and all <3605 kol > the plain <3603 kikkar > , and all <3605 kol > the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of the cities <5892 <iyr > , and that which grew <6780 tsemach > upon the ground <0127 >adamah > .

: 26 . But his wife <0802 >ishshah > looked <5027 nabat > back from behind <0310 >achar > him , and she became <1961 hayah > a pillar <5333 n@tsiyb > of salt <4417 melach > .

: 27 . And Abraham <85> gat up early <7925 shakam > in the morning <1242 boqer > to the place <4725 maqowm > where <0834 >aher > he stood <5975 <amad > before the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > :

: 28 And he looked <8259 shaqaph > toward Sodom <5467 C@dom > and Gomorrah <6017 <Amorah > , and toward all <3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets > of the plain <3603 kikkar > , and beheld <7200 ra>ah > , and , lo <2009 hinneh > , the smoke <7008 qiytowr > of the country <0776 >erets > went <5927 <alah > up as the smoke <7008 qiytowr > of a furnace <3536 kibshan > .

: 29 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass , when God <0430 >elohiym > destroyed <7843 shachath > the cities <5892 <iyr > of the plain <3603 kikkar > , that God <0430 >elohiym > remembered <2142 zakar > Abraham <85> , and sent <7971 shalach > Lot <3876 Lowt > out of the midst <8432 tavek > of the overthrow <2018 haphekah > , when he overthrew <2015 haphak > the cities <5892 <iyr > in the which <0834 >aher > Lot <3876 Lowt > dwelt <3427 yashab > .

: 30 . And Lot <3876 Lowt > went <5927 <alah > up out of Zoar <6820 Tso<ar > , and dwelt <3427 yashab > in the mountain <2022 har > , and his two <8147 sh@nayim > daughters <1363 gobahh > with him ; for he feared <3372 yare> > to dwell <3418 yereq > in Zoar <6820 Tso<ar > : and he dwelt <3427 yashab > in a cave <4631 m@<arah > , he and his two <8147 sh@nayim > daughters <1363 gobahh > .

: 31 And the firstborn <1067 bekiyrah > said <0559 >amar > unto the younger <6810 tsa<iyr > , Our father <1> [ is ] old <2204 zaqen > , and [ there is ] not a man <0376 >iysh > in the earth <0776 >erets > to come <0935 bow> > in unto us after the manner <1870 derek > of all <3605 kol > the earth <0776 >erets > :

: 32 Come <3212 yalak > , let us make our father <1> drink <8248 shaqah > wine <3196 yayin > , and we will lie <7901 shakab > with him , that we may preserve <2421 chayah > seed <2233 zera< > of our father <1> .

: 33 And they made their father <1> drink <8248 shaqah > wine <3196 yayin > that night <3915 layil > : and the firstborn <1067 bekiyrah > went <0935 bow> > in , and lay <7901 shakab > with her father <1> ; and he perceived <3045 yada< > not when she lay <7901 shakab > down , nor when she arose <6965 quwm > .

: 34 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass on the morrow <4283 mochorath > , that the firstborn <1067 bekiyrah > said <0559 >amar > unto the younger <6810 tsa<iyr > , Behold <2005 hen > , I lay <7901 shakab > yesternight <0570 >emesh > with my father <1> : let us make him drink <8248 shaqah > wine <3196 yayin > this night <3915 layil > also <1571 gam > ; and go <0935 bow> > thou in , [ and ] lie <7901 shakab > with him , that we may preserve <2421 chayah > seed <2233 zera< > of our father <1> .

: 35 And they made their father <1> drink <8248 shaqah > wine <3196 yayin > that night <3915 layil > also <1571 gam > : and the younger <6810 tsa<iyr > arose <6965 quwm > , and lay <7901 shakab > with him ; and he perceived <3045 yada< > not when she lay <7901 shakab > down , nor when she arose <6965 quwm > .

: 36 Thus were both <8147 sh@nayim > the daughters <1363 gobahh > of Lot <3876 Lowt > with child <2029 harah > by their father <1> .

: 37 And the firstborn <1067 bekiyrah > bare <3205 yalad > a son <1121 ben > , and called <7121 qara> > his name <8034 shem > Moab <4124 Mow>ab > : the same <1931 huw> > [ is ] the father <1> of the Moabites <4124 Mow>ab > unto this day <3117 yowm > .

: 38 And the younger <6810 tsa<iyr > , she also <1571 gam > bare <3205 yalad > a son <1121 ben > , and called <7121 qara> > his name <8034 shem > Benammi <1151 Ben - <Ammiy > : the same <1931 huw> > [ is ] the father <1> of the children <1121 ben > of Ammon <5983 <Ammown > unto this day <3117 yowm > .

: 1 . And Abraham <85> journeyed <5265 naca< > from thence <8033 sham > toward the south <5045 negeb > country <0776 >erets > , and dwelled <3427 yashab > between <0996 beyn > Kadesh <6946 Qadesh > and Shur <7793 Shuwr > , and sojourned <1481 guwr > in Gerar <1642 G@rar > .

: 2 And Abraham <85> said <0559 >amar > of Sarah <8283 Sarah > his wife <0802 >ishshah > , She [ is ] my sister <0269 >achowth > : and Abimelech <40> king <4428 melek > of Gerar <1642 G@rar > sent <7971 shalach > , and took <3947 laqach > Sarah <8283 Sarah > .

: 3 . But God <0430 >elohiym > came <0935 bow> > to Abimelech <40> in a dream <2472 chalowm > by night <3915 layil > , and said <0559 >amar > to him , Behold <2009 hinneh > , thou [ art but ] a dead <4191 muwth > man <0376 >iysh > , for the woman <0802 >ishshah > which <0834 >aher > thou hast taken <3947 laqach > ; for she [ is ] a man s <1167 ba<al > wife <1166 ba<al > .

: 4 But Abimelech <40> had not come <7126 qarab > near <7126 qarab > her : and he said <0559 >amar > , Lord <0136 >Adonay > , wilt thou slay <2026 harag > also <1571 gam > a righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > nation <1471 gowy > ?

: 5 Said <0559 >amar > he not unto me , She [ is ] my sister <0269 >achowth > ? and she , even <1571 gam > she herself said <0559 >amar > , He [ is ] my brother <0251 >ach > : in the integrity <8537 tom > of my heart <3824 lebab > and innocency <5356 niqqayown > of my hands <3709 kaph > have I done <6213 <asah > this <2063 zo>th > .

: 6 And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar > unto him in a dream <2472 chalowm > , Yea <1571 gam > , I know <3045 yada< > that thou didst <6213 <asah > this <2063 zo>th > in the integrity <8537 tom > of thy heart <3824 lebab > ; for I also withheld <2820 chasak > thee from sinning <2398 chata> > against me : therefore suffered <5414 nathan > I thee not to touch <5060 naga< > her .

: 7 Now <6258 <attah > therefore restore <7725 shuwb > the man <0376 >iysh > [ his ] wife <0802 >ishshah > ; for he [ is ] a prophet <5030 nabiy> > , and he shall pray <6419 palal > for thee , and thou shalt live <2421 chayah > : and if <0518 >im > thou restore <7725 shuwb > [ her ] not , know <3045 yada< > thou that thou shalt surely <3588 kiy > die <4191 muwth > , thou , and all <3605 kol > that [ are ] thine .

: 8 . Therefore Abimelech <40> rose <7925 shakam > early <7925 shakam > in the morning <1242 boqer > , and called <7121 qara> > all <3605 kol > his servants <5650 <ebed > , and told <1696 dabar > all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el - leh > things <1697 dabar > in their ears <0241 >ozen > : and the men <0582 >enowsh > were sore <3966 m@<od > afraid <3372 yare> > .

: 9 Then Abimelech <40> called <7121 qara> > Abraham <85> , and said <0559 >amar > unto him , What <4100 mah > hast thou done <6213 <asah > unto us ? and what <4100 mah > have I offended <2398 chata> > thee , that thou hast brought <0935 bow> > on <5921 <al > me and on <5921 <al > my kingdom <4467 mamlakah > a great <1419 gadowl > sin <2401 chata>ah > ? thou hast done <6213 <asah > deeds <4639 ma<aseh > unto me that ought <3972 m@uwmah > not to be done <6213 <asah > .

: 10 And Abimelech <40> said <0559 >amar > unto Abraham <85> , What <4100 mah > sawest <7200 ra>ah > thou , that thou hast done <6213 <asah > this <2088 zeh > thing <1697 dabar > ?

: 11 And Abraham <85> said <0559 >amar > , Because <3588 kiy > I thought <0559 >amar > , Surely <7535 raq > the fear <3374 yir>ah > of God <0430 >elohiym > [ is ] not in this <2088 zeh > place <4725 maqowm > ; and they will slay <2026 harag > me for my wife s <0802 >ishshah > sake <1697 dabar > .

: 12 And yet <1571 gam > indeed <0546 >omnah > [ she is ] my sister <0269 >achowth > ; she [ is ] the daughter <1323 bath > of my father <1> , but not the daughter <1323 bath > of my mother <0517 >em > ; and she became <1961 hayah > my wife <0802 >ishshah > .

: 13 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass , when <0834 >aher > God <0430 >elohiym > caused me to wander <8582 ta<ah > from my father s <1> house <1004 bayith > , that I said <0559 >amar > unto her , This <2088 zeh > [ is ] thy kindness <2617 checed > which <0834 >aher > thou shalt shew <6213 <asah > unto me ; at <0413 >el > every <3605 kol > place <4725 maqowm > whither we shall come <0935 bow> > , say <0559 >amar > of me , He [ is ] my brother <0251 >ach > .

: 14 . And Abimelech <40> took <3947 laqach > sheep <6629 tso>n > , and oxen <1241 baqar > , and menservants <5650 <ebed > , and womenservants <8198 shiphchah > , and gave <5414 nathan > [ them ] unto Abraham <85> , and restored <7725 shuwb > him Sarah <8283 Sarah > his wife <0802 >ishshah > .

: 15 And Abimelech <40> said <0559 >amar > , Behold <2009 hinneh > , my land <0776 >erets > [ is ] before <6440 paniym > thee : dwell <3418 yereq > where it pleaseth thee .

: 16 And unto Sarah <8283 Sarah > he said <0559 >amar > , Behold <2009 hinneh > , I have given <5414 nathan > thy brother <0251 >ach > a thousand <0505 >eleph > [ pieces ] of silver <3701 keceph > : behold <2009 hinneh > , he [ is ] to thee a covering <3682 k@cuwth > of the eyes <5869 <ayin > , unto all <3605 kol > that [ are ] with thee , and with all <3605 kol > [ other ] : thus she was reproved <3198 yakach > .

: 17 So Abraham <85> prayed <6419 palal > unto God <0430 >elohiym > : and God <0430 >elohiym > healed <7495 rapha> > Abimelech <40> , and his wife <0802 >ishshah > , and his maidservants <0519 >amah > ; and they bare <3205 yalad > [ children ] .

: 18 For the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > had fast closed <6113 <atsar > up all <3605 kol > the wombs <7358 rechem > of the house <1004 bayith > of Abimelech <40> , because of Sarah <8283 Sarah > Abraham s <85> wife <0802 >ishshah > .

: Genesis 21

: 1 . And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > visited <6485 paqad > Sarah <8283 Sarah > as he had said <0559 >amar > , and the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > did <6213 <asah > unto Sarah <8283 Sarah > as he had spoken <1696 dabar > .

: 2 For Sarah <8283 Sarah > conceived <2030 hareh > , and bare <3205 yalad > Abraham <85> a son <1121 ben > in his old <2208 zaqun > age , at the set <4150 mow<ed > time of which <0834 >aher > God <0430 >elohiym > had spoken <1696 dabar > to him .

: 3 And Abraham <85> called <7121 qara> > the name <8034 shem > of his son <1121 ben > that was born <3205 yalad > unto him , whom <0834 >aher > Sarah <8283 Sarah > bare <3205 yalad > to him , Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > .

: 4 And Abraham <85> circumcised <4135 muwl > his son <1121 ben > Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > being eight <8083 sh@moneh > days <3117 yowm > old <1121 ben > , as God <0430 >elohiym > had commanded <6680 tsavah > him .

: 5 And Abraham <85> was an hundred <3967 me>ah > years <8141 shaneh > old <1121 ben > , when his son <1121 ben > Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > was born <3205 yalad > unto him .

: 6 And Sarah <8283 Sarah > said <0559 >amar > , God <0430 >elohiym > hath made me to laugh <6712 ts@choq > , [ so that ] all <3605 kol > that hear <8085 shama< > will laugh <6711 tsachaq > with me .

: 7 And she said <0559 >amar > , Who <4310 miy > would have said <4448 malal > unto Abraham <85> , that Sarah <8283 Sarah > should have given children <1121 ben > suck <3243 yanaq > ? for I have born <3205 yalad > [ him ] a son <1121 ben > in his old <2208 zaqun > age .

: 8 And the child <3206 yeled > grew <1431 gadal > , and was weaned <1580 gamal > : and Abraham <85> made <6213 <asah > a great <1419 gadowl > feast <4960 mishteh > the [ same ] day <3117 yowm > that Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > was weaned <1580 gamal > .

: 9 . And Sarah <8283 Sarah > saw <7200 ra>ah > the son <1121 ben > of Hagar <1904 Hagar > the Egyptian <4713 Mitsriy > , which <0834 >aher > she had born <3205 yalad > unto Abraham <85> , mocking <6711 tsachaq > .

: 10 Wherefore she said <0559 >amar > unto Abraham <85> , Cast <1644 garash > out this <2063 zo>th > bondwoman <0519 >amah > and her son <1121 ben > : for the son <1121 ben > of this <2063 zo>th > bondwoman <0519 >amah > shall not be heir <3423 yarash > with my son , [ even ] with Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > .

: 11 And the thing <1697 dabar > was very <3966 m@<od > grievous <7489 ra<a< > in Abraham s <85> sight <5869 <ayin > because of his son <1121 ben > .

: 12 And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar > unto Abraham <85> , Let it not be grievous <7489 ra<a< > in thy sight <5869 <ayin > because <5921 <al > of the lad <5288 na<ar > , and because <5921 <al > of thy bondwoman <0519 >amah > ; in all <3605 kol > that Sarah <8283 Sarah > hath said <0559 >amar > unto thee , hearken <8085 shama< > unto her voice <6963 qowl > ; for in Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > shall thy seed <2233 zera< > be called <7121 qara> > .

: 13 And also of the son <1121 ben > of the bondwoman <0519 >amah > will I make <7760 suwm > a nation <1471 gowy > , because <3588 kiy > he [ is ] thy seed <2233 zera< > .

: 14 . And Abraham <85> rose <7925 shakam > up early <7925 shakam > in the morning <1242 boqer > , and took <3947 laqach > bread <3899 lechem > , and a bottle <2573 chemeth > of water <4325 mayim > , and gave <5414 nathan > [ it ] unto Hagar <1904 Hagar > , putting <7760 suwm > [ it ] on <5921 <al > her shoulder <7926 sh@kem > , and the child <3206 yeled > , and sent <7971 shalach > her away : and she departed <3212 yalak > , and wandered <8582 ta<ah > in the wilderness <4057 midbar > of Beersheba <0884 B@>er Sheba< > .

: 15 And the water <4325 mayim > was spent <3615 kalah > in the bottle <2573 chemeth > , and she cast <7993 shalak > the child <3206 yeled > under <8478 tachath > one <0259 >echad > of the shrubs <7880 siyach > .

: 16 And she went <3212 yalak > , and sat <3427 yashab > her down over <5048 neged > against <5048 neged > [ him ] a good <7368 rachaq > way off , as it were a bowshot : for <7198 qesheth > she said <0559 >amar > , Let me not see <7200 ra>ah > the death <4194 maveth > of the child <3206 yeled > . And she sat <3427 yashab > over <5048 neged > against <5048 neged > [ him ] , and lift <5375 nasa> > up her voice <6963 qowl > , and wept <1058 bakah > .

: 17 And God <0430 >elohiym > heard <8085 shama< > the voice <6963 qowl > of the lad <5288 na<ar > ; and the angel <4397 mal>ak > of God <0430 >elohiym > called <7121 qara> > to Hagar <1904 Hagar > out of heaven <8064 shamayim > , and said <0559 >amar > unto her , What <4100 mah > aileth thee , Hagar <1904 Hagar > ? fear <3372 yare> > not ; for God <0430 >elohiym > hath heard <8085 shama< > the voice <6963 qowl > of the lad <5288 na<ar > where <0834 >aher > he [ is ] .

: 18 Arise <6965 quwm > , lift <5375 nasa> > up the lad <5288 na<ar > , and hold <2388 chazaq > him in thine hand <3027 yad > ; for I will make <7760 suwm > him a great <1419 gadowl > nation <1471 gowy > .

: 19 And God <0430 >elohiym > opened <6491 paqach > her eyes <5869 <ayin > , and she saw <7200 ra>ah > a well <0875 @>er > of water <4325 mayim > ; and she went <3212 yalak > , and filled <4390 male> > the bottle <2573 chemeth > with water <4325 mayim > , and gave the lad <5288 na<ar > drink <8248 shaqah > .

: 20 And God <0430 >elohiym > was with the lad <5288 na<ar > ; and he grew <1431 gadal > , and dwelt <3427 yashab > in the wilderness <4057 midbar > , and became <1961 hayah > an archer <7198 qesheth > .

: 21 And he dwelt <3427 yashab > in the wilderness <4057 midbar > of Paran <6290 Pa>ran > : and his mother <0517 >em > took <3947 laqach > him a wife <0802 >ishshah > out of the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > .

: 22 . And it came <1961 hayah > to pass at that time <6256 <eth > , that Abimelech <40> and Phichol <6369 Piykol > the chief captain <8269 sar > of his host <6635 tsaba> > spake <0559 >amar > unto Abraham <85> , saying <0559 >amar > , God <0430 >elohiym > [ is ] with thee in all <3605 kol > that thou doest <6213 <asah > :

: 24 And Abraham <85> said <0559 >amar > , I will swear <7650 shaba< > .

: 25 And Abraham <85> reproved <3198 yakach > Abimelech <40> because of a well <0875 @>er > of water <4325 mayim > , which <0834 >aher > Abimelech s <40> servants <5650 <ebed > had violently <1497 gazal > taken <1497 gazal > away .

: 26 And Abimelech <40> said <0559 >amar > , I wot <3045 yada< > not who <4310miy > hath done <6213 <asah > this <2088 zeh > thing <1697 dabar > : neither <3808 lo> > didst thou tell <5046 nagad > me , neither <3808 lo> > yet <1571 gam > heard <8085 shama< > I [ of it ] , but to day <3117 yowm > .

: 27 And Abraham <85> took <3947 laqach > sheep <6629 tso>n > and oxen <1241 baqar > , and gave <5414 nathan > them unto Abimelech <40> ; and both <8147 sh@nayim > of them made <3772 karath > a covenant <1285 b@riyth > .

: 28 And Abraham <85> set <5324 natsab > seven <7651 sheba< > ewe <3535 kibsah > lambs <3535 kibsah > of the flock <6629 tso>n > by themselves .

: 29 And Abimelech <40> said <0559 >amar > unto Abraham <85> , What <4100 mah > [ mean ] these seven <7651 sheba< > ewe <3535 kibsah > lambs <3535 kibsah > which <0834 >aher > thou hast set <5324 natsab > by themselves ?

: 30 And he said <0559 >amar > , For [ these ] seven <7651 sheba< > ewe <3535 kibsah > lambs <3535 kibsah > shalt thou take <3947 laqach > of my hand <3027 yad > , that they may be a witness <5713 <edah > unto me , that I have digged <2658 chaphar > this well <0875 @>er > .

: Genesis 22

: 1 . And it came <1961 hayah > to pass after <0310 >achar > these things <1697 dabar > , that God <0430 >elohiym > did tempt <5254 nacah > Abraham <85> , and said <0559 >amar > unto him , Abraham <85> : and he said <0559 >amar > , Behold <2009 hinneh > , [ here ] I [ am ] .

: 3 . And Abraham <85> rose <7925 shakam > up early <7925 shakam > in the morning <1242 boqer > , and saddled <2280 chabash > his ass <2543 chamowr > , and took <3947 laqach > two <8147 sh@nayim > of his young <5288 na<ar > men with him , and Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > his son <1121 ben > , and clave <1234 baqa< > the wood <6086 <ets > for the burnt <5930 <olah > offering , and rose <6965 quwm > up , and went <3212 yalak > unto the place <4725 maqowm > of which <0834 >aher > God <0430 >elohiym > had told <0559 >amar > him .

: 6 And Abraham <85> took <3947 laqach > the wood <6086 <ets > of the burnt <5930 <olah > offering , and laid <7760 suwm > [ it ] upon Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > his son <1121 ben > ; and he took <3947 laqach > the fire <0784 >esh > in his hand <3027 yad > , and a knife <3979 ma>akeleth > ; and they went <3212 yalak > both <8147 sh@nayim > of them together <3162 yachad > .

: 7 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > spake <0559 >amar > unto Abraham <85> his father <1> , and said <0559 >amar > , My father <1> : and he said <0559 >amar > , Here <2009 hinneh > [ am ] I , my son <1121 ben > . And he said <0559 >amar > , Behold <2009 hinneh > the fire <0784 >esh > and the wood <6086 <ets > : but where <0834 >aher > [ is ] the lamb <7716 seh > for a burnt <5930 <olah > offering ?

And he brought <5066 nagash > [ it ] near <5066 nagash > to him , and he did eat <0398 >akal > : and he brought <0935 bow> > him wine <3196 yayin > , and he drank <8354 shathah > .

And it came <1961 hayah > to pass , as soon <0834 >aher > as Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > had made an end <3615 kalah > of blessing <1293 B@rakah > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > , and Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > was yet <0389 >ak > scarce gone <3318 yatsa> > out from the presence <6440 paniym > of Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > his father <1> , that Esau <6215 <Esav > his brother <0251 >ach > came <0935 bow> > in from his hunting <6718 tsayid > .

: 31 And he also <1571 gam > had made <6213 <asah > savoury <4303 mat<am > meat , and brought <0935 bow> > it unto his father <1> , and said <0559 >amar > unto his father <1> , Let my father <1> arise <6965 quwm > , and eat <0398 >akal > of his son s <1121 ben > venison <6718 tsayid > , that thy soul <5315 nephesh > may bless <1288 barak > me .

: 32 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > his father <1> said <0559 >amar > unto him , Who <4310 miy > [ art ] thou ? And he said <0559 >amar > , I [ am ] thy son <1121 ben > , thy firstborn <1060 b@kowr > Esau <6215 <Esav > .

: 33 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > trembled <2729 charad > very <1419 gadowl > exceedingly <1419 gadowl > , and said <0559 >amar > , Who <4310 miy > ? where <0645 >ephow > [ is ] he that hath taken <6679 tsuwd > venison <6718 tsayid > , and brought <0935 bow> > [ it ] me , and I have eaten <0398 >akal > of all <3605 kol > before <2962 terem > thou camest <0935 bow> > , and have blessed <1288 barak > him ? yea <1571 gam > , [ and ] he shall be blessed <1288 barak > .

: 34 And when Esau <6215 <Esav > heard <8085 shama< > the words <1697 dabar > of his father <1> , he cried <6817 tsa<aq > with a great <1419 gadowl > and exceeding <3966 m@<od > bitter <4751 mar > cry <6818 tsa<aqah > , and said <0559 >amar > unto his father <1> , Bless <1288 barak > me , [ even <1571 gam > ] me also <1571 gam > , O my father <1> .

: 35 And he said <0559 >amar > , Thy brother <0251 >ach > came <0935 bow> > with subtilty <4820 mirmah > , and hath taken <3947 laqach > away thy blessing <1293 B@rakah > .

: 36 And he said <0559 >amar > , Is not he rightly <3588 kiy > named Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > ? for he hath supplanted <6117 <aqab > me these <2088 zeh > two <6471 pa<am > times <6471 pa<am > : he took <3947 laqach > away my birthright <1062 b@kowrah > ; and , behold <2009 hinneh > , now <6258 <attah > he hath taken <3947 laqach > away my blessing <1293 B@rakah > . And he said <0559 >amar > , Hast thou not reserved <0680 >atsal > a blessing <1293 B@rakah > for me ?

: 37 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > answered <6030 <anah > and said <0559 >amar > unto Esau <6215 <Esav > , Behold <2005 hen > , I have made <7760 suwm > him thy lord <1376 g@biyr > , and all <3605 kol > his brethren <0251 >ach > have I given <5414 nathan > to him for servants <5650 <ebed > ; and with corn <1715 dagan > and wine <8492 tiyrowsh > have I sustained <5564 camak > him : and what <4100 mah > shall I do <6213 <asah > now <0645 >ephow > unto thee , my son <1121 ben > ?

: 38 And Esau <6215 <Esav > said <0559 >amar > unto his father <1> , Hast thou but one <0259 >echad > blessing <1293 B@rakah > , my father <1> ? bless <1288 barak > me , [ even <1571 gam > ] me also <1571 gam > , O my father <1> . And Esau <6215 <Esav > lifted <5375 nasa> > up his voice <6963 qowl > , and wept <1058 bakah > .

: 39 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > his father <1> answered <6030 <anah > and said <0559 >amar > unto him , Behold <2009 hinneh > , thy dwelling <4186 mowshab > shall be the fatness <4924 mashman > of the earth <0776 >erets > , and of the dew <2919 tal > of heaven <8064 shamayim > from above <5921 <al > ;

: 40 And by thy sword <2719 chereb > shalt thou live <2421 chayah > , and shalt serve <5647 <abad > thy brother <0251 >ach > ; and it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass when <0834 >aher > thou shalt have the dominion <7300 ruwd > , that thou shalt break <6561 paraq > his yoke <5923 <ol > from off <5921 <al > thy neck <6677 tsavva>r > .

: 41 . And Esau <6215 <Esav > hated <7852 satam > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > because <5921 <al > of the blessing <1293 B@rakah > wherewith <0834 >aher > his father <1> blessed <1288 barak > him : and Esau <6215 <Esav > said <0559 >amar > in his heart <3820 leb > , The days <3117 yowm > of mourning <60> for my father <1> are at <7126 qarab > hand <7126 qarab > ; then will I slay <2026 harag > my brother <0251 >ach > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > .

: 42 And these words <1697 dabar > of Esau <6215 <Esav > her elder <1419 gadowl > son <1121 ben > were told <5046 nagad > to Rebekah <7259 Ribqah > : and she sent <7971 shalach > and called <7121 qara> > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > her younger <6996 qatan > son <1121 ben > , and said <0559 >amar > unto him , Behold <2009 hinneh > , thy brother <0251 >ach > Esau <6215 <Esav > , as touching thee , doth comfort <5162 nacham > himself , [ purposing ] to kill <2026 harag > thee .

: 46 And Rebekah <7259 Ribqah > said <0559 >amar > to Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > , I am weary <6973 quwts > of my life <2416 chay > because <6440 paniym > of the daughters <1363 gobahh > of Heth <2845 Cheth > : if <0518 >im > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > take <3947 laqach > a wife <0802 >ishshah > of the daughters <1363 gobahh > of Heth <2845 Cheth > , such as these <0428 >el - leh > [ which <0834 >aher > are ] of the daughters <1363 gobahh > of the land <0776 >erets > , what <4100 mah > good shall my life <2416 chay > do me ?
