Genesis 1

1. In the beginning <7225 re>shiyth > God <0430 >elohiym >

created <1254 bara> > the heaven <8064 shamayim > and the earth

<0776 >erets >.

2 And the earth <0776 >erets > was without <8414 tohuw > form

<8414 tohuw >, and void <0922 bohuw >; and darkness <2822

choshek > [was] upon the face <6440 paniym > of the deep <8415

t@howm >. And the Spirit <7307 ruwach > of God <0430 >elohiym >

moved <7363> upon the face <6440 paniym > of the waters <4325

mayim >.

3. And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar >, Let there be

light <0216 >owr >: and there was light <0216 >owr >.

4 And God <0430 >elohiym > saw <7200 ra>ah > the light <0216

>owr >, that [it was] good <2896 towb >: and God <0430 >elohiym

> divided <0914 badal > the light <0216 >owr > from the darkness

<2822 choshek >.

5 And God <0430 >elohiym > called <7121 qara> > the light <0216

>owr > Day <3117 yowm >, and the darkness <2822 choshek > he

called <7121 qara> > Night <3915 layil >. And the evening <6153

<ereb > and the morning <1242 boqer > were the first <0259

>echad > day <3117 yowm >.

6. And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar >, Let there be a

firmament <7549 raqiya< > in the midst <8432 tavek > of the

waters <4325 mayim >, and let it divide <0914 badal > the waters

<4325 mayim > from the waters <4325 mayim >.

7 And God <0430 >elohiym > made <6213 <asah > the firmament

<7549 raqiya< >, and divided <0914 badal > the waters <4325

mayim > which <0834 >aher > [were] under <8478 tachath > the

firmament <7549 raqiya< > from the waters <4325 mayim > which

<0834 >aher > [were] above <5921 <al > the firmament <7549

raqiya< >: and it was so <3651 ken >.

8 And God <0430 >elohiym > called <7121 qara> > the firmament

<7549 raqiya< > Heaven <8064 shamayim >. And the evening <6153

<ereb > and the morning <1242 boqer > were the second <8145

sheniy > day <3117 yowm >.

9. And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar >, Let the waters

<4325 mayim > under <8478 tachath > the heaven <8064 shamayim >

be gathered <6960 qavah > together unto one <0259 >echad > place

<4725 maqowm >, and let the dry <3004 yabbashah > [land] appear

<7200 ra>ah >: and it was so <3651 ken >.

10 And God <0430 >elohiym > called <7121 qara> > the dry <3004

yabbashah > [land] Earth <0776 >erets >; and the gathering <4723

miqveh > together of the waters <4325 mayim > called <7121 qara>

> he Seas <3220 yam >: and God <0430 >elohiym > saw <7200 ra>ah

> that [it was] good <2896 towb >.

11 And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar >, Let the earth

<0776 >erets > bring <1876 dasha > forth <1876 dasha > grass

<1877 deshe> >, the herb <6212 <eseb > yielding <2232 zara< >

seed <2233 zera< >, [and] the fruit <6529 p@riy > tree <6086

<ets > yielding <6213 <asah > fruit <6529 p@riy > after his kind

<4327 miyn >, whose <0834 >aher > seed <2233 zera< > [is] in

itself, upon the earth <0776 >erets >: and it was so <3651 ken >.

12 And the earth <0776 >erets > brought <3318 yatsa> > forth

<3318 yatsa> > grass <1877 deshe> >, [and] herb <6212 <eseb >

yielding <2232 zara< > seed <2233 zera< > after his kind <4327

miyn >, and the tree <6086 <ets > yielding <6213 <asah > fruit

<6529 p@riy >, whose <0834 >aher > seed <2233 zera< > [was] in

itself, after his kind <4327 miyn >: and God <0430 >elohiym >

saw <7200 ra>ah > that [it was] good <2896 towb >.

13 And the evening <6153 <ereb > and the morning <1242 boqer >

were the third <7992 sh@liyshiy > day <3117 yowm >.

14. And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar >, Let there be

lights <3974 ma>owr > in the firmament <7549 raqiya< > of the

heaven <8064 shamayim > to divide <0914 badal > the day <3117

yowm > from the night <3915 layil >; and let them be for signs

<0226 >owth >, and for seasons <4150 mow<ed >, and for days

<3117 yowm >, and years <8141 shaneh >:

15 And let them be for lights <3974 ma>owr > in the firmament

<7549 raqiya< > of the heaven <8064 shamayim > to give light

<0216 >owr > upon the earth <0776 >erets >: and it was so <3651

ken >.

16 And God <0430 >elohiym > made <6213 <asah > two <8147

sh@nayim > great <1419 gadowl > lights <3974 ma>owr >; the

greater <1419 gadowl > light <3974 ma>owr > to rule <4475

memshalah > the day <3117 yowm >, and the lesser <6996 qatan >

light <3974 ma>owr > to rule <4475 memshalah > the night <3915

layil >: [he made] the stars <3556 kowkab > also.

17 And God <0430 >elohiym > set <5414 nathan > them in the

firmament <7549 raqiya< > of the heaven <8064 shamayim > to give

light <0216 >owr > upon the earth <0776 >erets >,

18 And to rule <4910 mashal > over the day <3117 yowm > and

over the night <3915 layil >, and to divide <0914 badal > the

light <0216 >owr > from the darkness <2822 choshek >: and God

<0430 >elohiym > saw <7200 ra>ah > that [it was] good <2896 towb

19 And the evening <6153 <ereb > and the morning <1242 boqer >

were the fourth <7243 r@biy<iy > day <3117 yowm >.

20. And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar >, Let the waters

<4325 mayim > bring <8317 sharats > forth <8317 sharats >

abundantly <8317 sharats > the moving <8318 sherets > creature

<8318 sherets > that hath life <2416 chay >, and fowl <5775

<0776 >erets > in the open <6440 paniym > firmament <7549

raqiya< > of heaven <8064 shamayim >.

21 And God <0430 >elohiym > created <1254 bara> > great <1419

gadowl > whales <8577 tanniyn >, and every <3605 kol > living

<2416 chay > creature <5315 nephesh > that moveth <7430 ramas >,

which <0834 >aher > the waters <4325 mayim > brought <8317

sharats > forth <8317 sharats > abundantly <8317 sharats >,

after their kind <4327 miyn >, and every <3605 kol > winged

<3671 kanaph > fowl <5775 <owph > after his kind <4327 miyn >:

and God <0430 >elohiym > saw <7200 ra>ah > that [it was] good

<2896 towb >.

22 And God <0430 >elohiym > blessed <1288 barak > them, saying

<0559 >amar >, Be fruitful <6509 parah >, and multiply <7235

rabah >, and fill <4390 male> > the waters <4325 mayim > in the

seas <3220 yam >, and let fowl <5775 <owph > multiply <7235

rabah > in the earth <0776 >erets >.

23 And the evening <6153 <ereb > and the morning <1242 boqer >

were the fifth <2549 chamiyshiy > day <3117 yowm >.

24. And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar >, Let the earth

<0776 >erets > bring <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > the

living <2416 chay > creature <5315 nephesh > after his kind

<4327 miyn >, cattle <0929 b@hemah >, and creeping <7431 remes >

thing, and beast <2416 chay > of the earth <0776 >erets > after

his kind <4327 miyn >: and it was so <3651 ken >.

25 And God <0430 >elohiym > made <6213 <asah > the beast <2416

chay > of the earth <0776 >erets > after his kind <4327 miyn >,

and cattle <0929 b@hemah > after their kind <4327 miyn >, and

every <3605 kol > thing that creepeth <7431 remes > upon the

earth <0127 >adamah > after his kind <4327 miyn >: and God <0430

>elohiym > saw <7200 ra>ah > that [it was] good <2896 towb >.

26. And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar >, Let us make

<6213 <asah > man <0120 >adam > in our image <6754 tselem >,

after our likeness <1823 d@muwth >: and let them have dominion

and over the fowl <5775 <owph > of the air <8064 shamayim >,

and over the cattle <0929 b@hemah >, and over all <3605 kol >

the earth <0776 >erets >, and over every <3605 kol > creeping

<7431 remes > thing that creepeth <7430 ramas > upon the earth

<0776 >erets >.

27 So God <0430 >elohiym > created <1254 bara> > man <0120

>adam > in his [own] image <6754 tselem >, in the image <6754

tselem > of God <0430 >elohiym > created <1254 bara> > he him;

male <2145 zakar > and female <5347 n@qebah > created <1254

bara> > he them.

28 And God <0430 >elohiym > blessed <1288 barak > them, and God

<0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar > unto them, Be fruitful <6509

parah >, and multiply <7235 rabah >, and replenish <4390 male> >

the earth <0776 >erets >, and subdue <3533 kabash > it: and have

dominion <7287 radah > over the fish <1710 dagah > of the sea

<3220 yam >, and over the fowl <5775 <owph > of the air <8064

shamayim >, and over every <3605 kol > living <2416 chay > thing

that moveth <7430 ramas > upon the earth <0776 >erets >.

29. And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2009

hinneh >, I have given <5414 nathan > you every <3605 kol > herb

<6212 <eseb > bearing <2232 zara< > seed <2233 zera< >, which

of a tree <6086 <ets > yielding <2232 zara< > seed <2233 zera< >;

to you it shall be for meat <0402 >oklah >.

30 And to every <3605 kol > beast <2416 chay > of the earth

<0776 >erets >, and to every <3605 kol > fowl <5775 <owph > of

the air <8064 shamayim >, and to every <3605 kol > thing that

creepeth <7430 ramas > upon the earth <0776 >erets >, wherein

<0834 >aher > [there is] life <2416 chay >, [I have given] every

<3605 kol > green <3418 yereq > herb <6212 <eseb > for meat

<0402 >oklah >: and it was so <3651 ken >.

31. And God <0430 >elohiym > saw <7200 ra>ah > every <3605 kol

evening <6153 <ereb > and the morning <1242 boqer > were the

sixth <8345 shishshiy > day <3117 yowm >.

Genesis 2

1. Thus the heavens <8064 shamayim > and the earth <0776 >erets

<6635 tsaba> > of them.

2 And on the seventh <7637 sh@biy<iy > day <3117 yowm > God

<0430 >elohiym > ended <3615 kalah > his work <4399 m@la>kah >

which <0834 >aher > he had made <6213 <asah >; and he rested

3 And God <0430 >elohiym > blessed <1288 barak > the seventh

<7637 sh@biy<iy > day <3117 yowm >, and sanctified <6942 qadash

<6213 <asah >.

4. These <0428 >el-leh > [are] the generations <8435 towl@dah >

of the heavens <8064 shamayim > and of the earth <0776 >erets >

when they were created <1254 bara> >, in the day <3117 yowm >

that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > made <6213

<asah > the earth <0776 >erets > and the heavens <8064 shamayim

5 And every <3605 kol > plant <7880 siyach > of the field <7704

sadeh > before <2962 terem > it was in the earth <0776 >erets >,

and every <3605 kol > herb <6212 <eseb > of the field <7704

sadeh > before <2962 terem > it grew <6779 tsamach >: for the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > had not caused it to

rain <4305 matar > upon the earth <0776 >erets >, and [there

was] not a man <0120 >adam > to till <5647 <abad > the ground

<0127 >adamah >.

6 But there went <5927 <alah > up a mist <0108 >ed > from the

earth <0776 >erets >, and watered <8248 shaqah > the whole face

<6440 paniym > of the ground <0127 >adamah >.

7 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > formed

<3335 yatsar > man <0120 >adam > [of] the dust <6083 <aphar > of

the ground <0127 >adamah >, and breathed <5301 naphach > into

his nostrils <0639 >aph > the breath <5397 n@shamah > of life

<2416 chay >; and man <0120 >adam > became <1961 hayah > a

living <2416 chay > soul <5315 nephesh >.

8. And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > planted

<5193 nata< > a garden <1588 gan > eastward <6924 qedem > in

Eden <5731 <Eden >; and there <8033 sham > he put <7760 suwm >

the man <0120 >adam > whom <0834 >aher > he had formed <3335

yatsar >.

9 And out of the ground <0127 >adamah > made the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > to grow <6779 tsamach > every

<3605 kol > tree <6086 <ets > that is pleasant <2530 chamad > to

the sight <4758 mar>eh >, and good <2896 towb > for food <3978

ma>akal >; the tree <6086 <ets > of life <2416 chay > also in

the midst <8432 tavek > of the garden <1588 gan >, and the tree

<6086 <ets > of knowledge <1847 da<ath > of good <2896 towb >

and evil <7451 ra< >.

10 And a river <5104 nahar > went <3318 yatsa> > out of Eden

<5731 <Eden > to water <8248 shaqah > the garden <1588 gan >;

and from thence <8033 sham > it was parted <6504 parad >, and

became <1961 hayah > into four <0702 >arba< > heads <7218 ro>sh

11 The name <8034 shem > of the first <0259 >echad > [is] Pison

<6376 Piyshown >: that [is] it which compasseth <5437 cabab >

the whole land <0776 >erets > of Havilah <2341 Chaviylah >,

where [there is] gold <2091 zahab >;

12 And the gold <2091 zahab > of that land <0776 >erets > [is]

good <2896 towb >: there <8033 sham > [is] bdellium <0916

b@dolach > and the onyx <7718 shoham > stone <68>.

13 And the name <8034 shem > of the second <8145 sheniy > river

<5104 nahar > [is] Gihon <1521 Giychown >: the same <1931 huw> >

[is] it that compasseth <5437 cabab > the whole land <0776

>erets > of Ethiopia <3568 Kuwsh >.

14 And the name <8034 shem > of the third <7992 sh@liyshiy >

river <5104 nahar > [is] Hiddekel <2313 Chiddeqel >: that [is]

it which goeth <1980 halak > toward the east <6926 qidmah > of

Assyria <0804 >Ashshuwr >. And the fourth <7243 r@biy<iy > river

<5104 nahar > [is] Euphrates <6578 P@rath >.

15 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > took <3947

laqach > the man <0120 >adam >, and put <3240 yanach > him into

the garden <1588 gan > of Eden <5731 <Eden > to dress <5647

<abad > it and to keep <8104 shamar > it.

16. And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > commanded

<6680 tsavah > the man <0120 >adam >, saying <0559 >amar >, Of

every <3605 kol > tree <6086 <ets > of the garden <1588 gan >

thou mayest freely eat <0398 >akal >:

17 But of the tree <6086 <ets > of the knowledge <1847 da<ath >

of good <2896 towb > and evil <7451 ra< >, thou shalt not eat

<0398 >akal > of it: for in the day <3117 yowm > that thou

eatest <0398 >akal > thereof thou shalt surely die <4191 muwth >.

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.

20 And Adam <0120 >adam > gave <7121 qara> > names <8034 shem >

to all <3605 kol > cattle <0929 b@hemah >, and to the fowl <5775

<owph > of the air <8064 shamayim >, and to every <3605 kol >

beast <2416 chay > of the field <7704 sadeh >; but for Adam

<0120 >adam > there was not found <4672 matsa> > an help <5828

<ezer > meet <5828 <ezer > for him.

21. 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<

<8478 tachath > thereof;

22 And the rib <6763 tsela< >, which <0834 >aher > the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > had taken <3947 laqach >

from man <0120 >adam >, made <1129 banah > he a woman <0802

>ishshah >, and brought <0935 bow> > her unto the man <0120

>adam >.

23 And Adam <0120 >adam > said <0559 >amar >, This <2063 zo>th

<etsem >, and flesh <1320 basar > of my flesh <1320 basar >: she

shall be called <7121 qara> > Woman <0802 >ishshah >, because

<3588 kiy > she was taken <3947 laqach > out of Man <0376 >iysh

24 Therefore shall a man <0376 >iysh > leave <5800 <azab > his

father <1> and his mother <0517 >em >, and shall cleave <1692

dabaq > unto his wife <0802 >ishshah >: and they shall be one

<0259 >echad > flesh <1320 basar >.

25 And they were both <8147 sh@nayim > naked <6174 <arowm >,

the man <0120 >adam > and his wife <0802 >ishshah >, and were

not ashamed <0954 buwsh >.

Genesis 3

1. Now the serpent <5175 nachash > was more subtil <6175 <aruwm

sadeh > which <0834 >aher > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430

unto the woman <0802 >ishshah >, Yea, hath God <0430 >elohiym >

said <0559 >amar >, Ye shall not eat <0398 >akal > of every

2 And the woman <0802 >ishshah > said <0559 >amar > unto the

serpent <5175 nachash >, We may eat <0398 >akal > of the fruit

<6529 p@riy > of the trees <6086 <ets > of the garden <1588 gan

3 But of the fruit <6529 p@riy > of the tree <6086 <ets > which

<0834 >aher > [is] in the midst <8432 tavek > of the garden

shall not eat <0398 >akal > of it, neither shall ye touch <5060

naga< > it, lest <6435 pen > ye die <4191 muwth >.

4 And the serpent <5175 nachash > said <0559 >amar > unto the

woman <0802 >ishshah >, Ye shall not surely die <4191 muwth >:

5 For God <0430 >elohiym > doth know <3045 yada< > that in the

<5869 <ayin > shall be opened <6491 paqach >, and ye shall be as

gods <0430 >elohiym >, knowing <3045 yada< > good <2896 towb >

6. And when the woman <0802 >ishshah > saw <7200 ra>ah > that

the tree <6086 <ets > [was] good <2896 towb > for food <3978

ma>akal >, and that it [was] pleasant <8378 ta>avah > to the

and gave <5414 nathan > also <1571 gam > unto her husband <0376

7 And the eyes <5869 <ayin > of them both <8147 sh@nayim > were

opened <6491 paqach >, and they knew <3045 yada< > that they

[were] naked <5903 <eyrom >; and they sewed <8609 taphar > fig

<8384 t@>en > leaves <2529 chem>ah > together, and made <6213

8 And they heard <8085 shama< > the voice <6963 qowl > of the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > walking <1980 halak >

in the garden <1588 gan > in the cool <7307 ruwach > of the day

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > amongst <8432 tavek >

the trees <6086 <ets > of the garden <1588 gan >.

9. And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > called

<7121 qara> > unto Adam <0120 >adam >, and said <0559 >amar >

unto him, Where <0335 >ay > [art] thou?

10 And he said <0559 >amar >, I heard <8085 shama< > thy voice

<6963 qowl > in the garden <1588 gan >, and I was afraid <3372

yare> >, because <3588 kiy > I [was] naked <5903 <eyrom >; and I

hid <2244> myself.

11. And he said <0559 >amar >, Who <4310 miy > told <5046 nagad

<0398 >akal > of the tree <6086 <ets >, whereof <0834 >aher > I

commanded <6680 tsavah > thee that thou shouldest not eat <0398

12 And the man <0120 >adam > said <0559 >amar >, The woman

<0802 >ishshah > whom <0834 >aher > thou gavest <5414 nathan >

[to be] with me, she gave <5414 nathan > me of the tree <6086

13 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559

this <2063 zo>th > [that] thou hast done <6213 <asah >? And the

woman <0802 >ishshah > said <0559 >amar >, The serpent <5175

nachash > beguiled <5377 nasha> > me, and I did eat <0398 >akal

14. And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > said

<0559 >amar > unto the serpent <5175 nachash >, Because <3588

kiy > thou hast done <6213 <asah > this <2063 zo>th >, thou

[art] cursed <0779 >arar > above all <3605 kol > cattle <0929

go <3212 yalak >, and dust <6083 <aphar > shalt thou eat <0398

15 And I will put <7896 shiyth > enmity <0342 >eybah > between

<0996 beyn > thy seed <2233 zera< > and her seed <2233 zera< >;

it shall bruise <7779 shuwph > thy head <7218 ro>sh >, and thou

shalt bruise <7779 shuwph > his heel <6119 <aqeb >.

16. Unto the woman <0802 >ishshah > he said <0559 >amar >, I

will greatly multiply <7235 rabah > thy sorrow <6093 <itstsabown

husband <0376 >iysh >, and he shall rule <4910 mashal > over

thee.

17. And unto Adam <0121 >Adam > he said <0559 >amar >, Because

<3588 kiy > thou hast hearkened <8085 shama< > unto the voice

<6963 qowl > of thy wife <0802 >ishshah >, and hast eaten <0398

commanded <6680 tsavah > thee, saying <0559 >amar >, Thou shalt

not eat <0398 >akal > of it: cursed <0779 >arar > [is] the

ground <0127 >adamah > for thy sake <5668 <abuwr >; in sorrow

<6093 <itstsabown > shalt thou eat <0398 >akal > [of] it all

<3605 kol > the days <3117 yowm > of thy life <2416 chay >;

18 Thorns <6975 qowts > also and thistles <1863 dardar > shall

it bring <6779 tsamach > forth <6779 tsamach > to thee; and thou

shalt eat <0398 >akal > the herb <6212 <eseb > of the field

19 In the sweat <2188 ze<ah > of thy face <0639 >aph > shalt

thou eat <0398 >akal > bread <3899 lechem >, till <5704 <ad >

thou return <7725 shuwb > unto the ground <0127 >adamah >; for

out of it wast thou taken <3947 laqach >: for dust <6083 <aphar

<7725 shuwb >.

20. And Adam <0120 >adam > called <7121 qara> > his wife's

<0802 >ishshah > name <8034 shem > Eve <2332 Chavvah >; because

<3588 kiy > she was the mother <0517 >em > of all <3605 kol >

living <2416 chay >.

21. Unto Adam <0120 >adam > also and to his wife <0802 >ishshah

<asah > coats <3801 k@thoneth > of skins <5785 <owr >, and

clothed <3847 labash > them.

22. And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > said

<0559 >amar >, Behold <2005 hen >, the man <0120 >adam > is

become <1961 hayah > as one <0259 >echad > of us, to know <3045

eat <0398 >akal >, and live <2425 chayay > for ever <5769 <owlam

23 Therefore the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > sent

<5731 <Eden >, to till <5647 <abad > the ground <0127 >adamah >

from whence he was taken <3947 laqach >.

24 So he drove <1644 garash > out the man <0120 >adam >; and he

placed <7931 shakan > at the east <6924 qedem > of the garden

<1588 gan > of Eden <5731 <Eden > Cherubims <3742 k@ruwb >, and

a flaming <3858 lahat > sword <2719 chereb > which turned <2015

haphak > every way, to keep <8104 shamar > the way of the tree

<6086 <ets > of life <2416 chay >.

Genesis 4

1. And Adam <0120 >adam > knew <3045 yada< > Eve <2332 Chavvah

and bare <3205 yalad > Cain <7014 Qayin >, and said <0559 >amar

from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

2 And she again <3254 yacaph > bare <3205 yalad > his brother

<0251 >ach > Abel <1893 Hebel >. And Abel <1893 Hebel > was a

keeper <7462 ra<ah > of sheep <6629 tso>n >, but Cain <7014

Qayin > was a tiller <5647 <abad > of the ground <0127 >adamah >.

3. And in process <7093 qets > of time <3117 yowm > it came

<1961 hayah > to pass, that Cain <7014 Qayin > brought <0935

bow> > of the fruit <6529 p@riy > of the ground <0127 >adamah >

an offering <4503 minchah > unto the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

4 And Abel <1893 Hebel >, he also <1571 gam > brought <0935

bow> > of the firstlings <1062 b@kowrah > of his flock <6629

tso>n > and of the fat <2459 cheleb > thereof. And the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > had respect <8159 sha<ah > unto Abel <1893 Hebel

5 But unto Cain <7014 Qayin > and to his offering <4503 minchah

very <3966 m@<od > wroth <2734 charah >, and his countenance

<6440 paniym > fell <5307 naphal >.

6. And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Cain

<7014 Qayin >, Why <4100 mah > art thou wroth <2734 charah >?

and why <4100 mah > is thy countenance <6440 paniym > fallen

7 If <0518 >im > thou doest well <3190 yatab >, shalt thou not

be accepted <7613 s@>eth >? and if <0518 >im > thou doest not

well <3190 yatab >, sin <2403 chatta>ah > lieth <7257 rabats >

at the door <6607 pethach >. And unto thee [shall be] his desire

<8669 t@shuwqah >, and thou shalt rule <4910 mashal > over him.

8. And Cain <7014 Qayin > talked <0559 >amar > with Abel <1893

Hebel > his brother <0251 >ach >: and it came <1961 hayah > to

pass, when they were in the field <7704 sadeh >, that Cain <7014

Qayin > rose <6965 quwm > up against <0413 >el > Abel <1893

Hebel > his brother <0251 >ach >, and slew <2026 harag > him.

9. And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Cain

<7014 Qayin >, Where <0335 >ay > [is] Abel <1893 Hebel > thy

brother <0251 >ach >? And he said <0559 >amar >, I know <3045

yada< > not: [Am] I my brother's <0251 >ach > keeper <8104

shamar >?

10 And he said <0559 >amar >, What <4100 mah > hast thou done

<6213 <asah >? the voice <6963 qowl > of thy brother's <0251

ground <0127 >adamah >.

11 And now <6258 <attah > [art] thou cursed <0779 >arar > from

the earth <0127 >adamah >, which <0834 >aher > hath opened <6475

patsah > her mouth <6310 peh > to receive <3947 laqach > thy

12 When <3588 kiy > thou tillest <5647 <abad > the ground <0127

nathan > unto thee her strength <3581 koach >; a fugitive <5128

nuwa< > and a vagabond <5110 nuwd > shalt thou be in the earth

<0776 >erets >.

13. And Cain <7014 Qayin > said <0559 >amar > unto the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah >, My punishment <5771 <avon > [is] greater <1419

gadowl > than I can bear <5375 nasa> >.

14 Behold <2005 hen >, thou hast driven <1644 garash > me out

this day <3117 yowm > from the face <6440 paniym > of the earth

vagabond <5110 nuwd > in the earth <0776 >erets >; and it shall

come <1961 hayah > to pass, [that] every <3605 kol > one that

findeth <4672 matsa> > me shall slay <2026 harag > me.

15 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto him,

Therefore <3767 kara< > whosoever <3605 kol > slayeth <2026

harag > Cain <7014 Qayin >, vengeance <5358 naqam > shall be

taken on him sevenfold <7659 shib<athayim >. And the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > set <7760 suwm > a mark <0226 >owth > upon Cain <7014

Qayin >, lest <1115 biltiy > any <3605 kol > finding <4672

16. And Cain <7014 Qayin > went <3318 yatsa> > out from the

presence <6440 paniym > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, and dwelt

<3427 yashab > in the land <0776 >erets > of Nod <5113 Nowd >,

on the east <6926 qidmah > of Eden <5731 <Eden >.

17 And Cain <7014 Qayin > knew <3045 yada< > his wife <0802

18 And unto Enoch <2585 Chanowk > was born <3205 yalad > Irad

19. And Lamech <3929 Lemek > took <3947 laqach > unto him two

of the one <0259 >echad > [was] Adah <5711 <Adah >, and the name

23. And Lamech <3929 Lemek > said <0559 >amar > unto his wives

Hear <8085 shama< > my voice <6963 qowl >; ye wives <0802

17 And, behold <2005 hen >, I, even I, do bring <0935 bow> > a

all <3605 kol > the cattle <0929 b@hemah > that [was] with him

2 The fountains <4599 ma<yan > also of the deep <8415 t@howm >

and the windows <0699 >arubbah > of heaven <8064 shamayim > were

stopped <5534 caker >, and the rain <1653 geshem > from heaven

3 And the waters <4325 mayim > returned <7725 shuwb > from off

abated <2637 chacer >.

6. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass at the end <7093 qets > of

8 Also he sent <7971 shalach > forth a dove <3123 yownah > from

abated <7043 qalal > from off <5921 <al > the face <6440 paniym

10 And he stayed <2342 chuwl > yet other <0312 >acher > seven

sent <7971 shalach > forth the dove <3123 yownah > out of the

12 And he stayed <3176 yachal > yet other <0312 >acher > seven

13. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the six <8337 shesh >

14 And in the second <8145 sheniy > month <2320 chodesh >, on

20. And Noah <5146 Noach > builded <1129 banah > an altar <4196

Genesis 9

1. And God <0430 >elohiym > blessed <1288 barak > Noah <5146

Noach > and his sons <1121 ben >, and said <0559 >amar > unto

2 And the fear <4172 mowra> > of you and the dread <2844 chath

4 But flesh <1320 basar > with the life <5315 nephesh > thereof,

5 And surely <0389 >ak > your blood <1818 dam > of your lives

8. And God <0430 >elohiym > spake <0559 >amar > unto Noah <5146

18. And the sons <1121 ben > of Noah <5146 Noach >, that went

2 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, as they journeyed <5265

3 And they said <0559 >amar > one <0376 >iysh > to another

4 And they said <0559 >amar >, Go <3051 yahab > to, let us

5. And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <3381 yarad > down <3381

6 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2005

9 Therefore is the name <8034 shem > of it called <7121 qara> >

7 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > appeared <7200 ra>ah > unto

9 And Abram <87> journeyed <5265 naca< >, going <1980 halak >

10. And there was a famine <7458 ra<ab > in the land <0776

they will save <2421 chayah > thee alive <2421 chayah >.

13 Say <0559 >amar >, I pray <4994 na> > thee, thou [art] my

sister <0269 >achowth >: that it may be well <3190 yatab > with

me for thy sake <5668 <abuwr >; and my soul <5315 nephesh >

14. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, that, when Abram <87>

was come <0935 bow> > into Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, the

Egyptians <4713 Mitsriy > beheld <7200 ra>ah > the woman <0802

15 The princes <8269 sar > also of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > saw

<7200 ra>ah > her, and commended <1984 halal > her before <0413

taken <3947 laqach > into Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > house <1004

bayith >.

16 And he entreated Abram <87> well <3190 yatab > for her sake

<5668 <abuwr >: and he had <1961 hayah > sheep <6629 tso>n >,

and oxen <1241 baqar >, and he asses <2543 chamowr >, and

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

and she asses <0860 >athown >, and camels <1581 gamal >.

17 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > plagued <5060 naga< > Pharaoh

<6547 Par<oh > and his house <1004 bayith > with great <1419

gadowl > plagues <5061 nega< > because <1697 dabar > of Sarai

<8297 Saray > Abram's <87> wife <0802 >ishshah >.

18 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > called <7121 qara> > Abram <87>,

and said <0559 >amar >, What <4100 mah > [is] this <2063 zo>th >

[that] thou hast done <6213 <asah > unto me? why <4100 mah >

didst thou not tell <5046 nagad > me that she [was] thy wife

19 Why <4100 mah > saidst <0559 >amar > thou, She [is] my

sister <0269 >achowth >? so I might have taken <3947 laqach >

behold <2009 hinneh > thy wife <0802 >ishshah >, take <3947

20 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > commanded <6680 tsavah > [his]

men <0582 >enowsh > concerning him: and they sent <7971 shalach

Genesis 13

1. And Abram <87> went <5927 <alah > up out of Egypt <4714

Mitsrayim >, he, and his wife <0802 >ishshah >, and all <3605

kol > that he had, and Lot <3876 Lowt > with him, into the south

<5045 negeb >.

2 And Abram <87> [was] very <3966 m@<od > rich <3513 kabad > in

cattle <4735 miqneh >, in silver <3701 keceph >, and in gold

<2091 zahab >.

3 And he went <3212 yalak > on his journeys <4550 macca< > from

the south <5045 negeb > even to Bethel <1008 Beyth->El >, unto

the place <4725 maqowm > where <0834 >aher > his tent <0168

4 Unto the place <4725 maqowm > of the altar <4196 mizbeach >,

which <0834 >aher > he had made there <8033 sham > at the first

<7223 ri>shown >: and there <8033 sham > Abram <87> called <7121

qara> > on the name <8034 shem > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

5. And Lot <3876 Lowt > also <1571 gam >, which went <1980

halak > with Abram <87>, had <1961 hayah > flocks <6629 tso>n >,

and herds <1241 baqar >, and tents <0168 >ohel >.

6 And the land <0776 >erets > was not able <5375 nasa> > to

bear <5375 nasa> > them, that they might dwell <3427 yashab >

together <3162 yachad >: for their substance <7399 r@kuwsh > was

great <7227 rab >, so that they could <3201 yakol > not dwell

<3427 yashab > together <3162 yachad >.

7 And there was a strife <7379 riyb > between <0996 beyn > the

herdmen <7462 ra<ah > of Abram's <87> cattle <4735 miqneh > and

the herdmen <7462 ra<ah > of Lot's <3876 Lowt > cattle <4735

miqneh >: and the Canaanite <3669 K@na<aniy > and the Perizzite

<6522 P@rizziy > dwelled <3427 yashab > then <0227 >az > in the

land <0776 >erets >.

8 And Abram <87> said <0559 >amar > unto Lot <3876 Lowt >, Let

there be no <0408 >al > strife <4808 m@riybah >, I pray <4994

na> > thee, between <0996 beyn > me and thee, and between <0996

for we [be] brethren <0251 >ach >.

9 [Is] not the whole <3605 kol > land <0776 >erets > before

<6440 paniym > thee? separate <6504 parad > thyself, I pray

<4994 na> > thee, from me: if <0518 >im > [thou wilt take <3947

will go to the right <3231 yaman >; or if <0518 >im > [thou

depart] to the right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn >, then I

will go to the left <8041 sama>l >.

10. And Lot <3876 Lowt > lifted <5375 nasa> > up his eyes <5869

<ayin >, and beheld <7200 ra>ah > all <3605 kol > the plain

<3603 kikkar > of Jordan <3383 Yarden >, that it [was] well

watered <4945 mashqeh > every <3605 kol > where, before <6440

paniym > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > destroyed <7843 shachath >

Sodom <5467 C@dom > and Gomorrah <6017 <Amorah >, [even] as the

garden <1588 gan > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, like the land

<0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, as thou comest <0935

11 Then Lot <3876 Lowt > chose <0977 bachar > him all <3605 kol

<3876 Lowt > journeyed <5265 naca< > east <6924 qedem >: and

they separated <6504 parad > themselves the one <0376 >iysh >

from the other <0251 >ach >.

12 Abram <87> dwelled <3427 yashab > in the land <0776 >erets >

of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >, and Lot <3876 Lowt > dwelled <3427

yashab > in the cities <5892 <iyr > of the plain <3603 kikkar >,

and pitched <0167 >ahal > [his] tent <0167 >ahal > toward <5704

<ad > Sodom <5467 C@dom >.

13 But the men <0582 >enowsh > of Sodom <5467 C@dom > [were]

wicked <7451 ra< > and sinners <2400 chatta> > before the LORD

<3068 Y@hovah > exceedingly <3966 m@<od >.

14. And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Abram

<87>, after <0310 >achar > that Lot <3876 Lowt > was separated

<6504 parad > from him, Lift <5375 nasa> > up now thine eyes

westward <3220 yam >:

15 For all <3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets > which <0834

nathan > it, and to thy seed <2233 zera< > for ever <5769 <owlam

16 And I will make <7760 suwm > thy seed <2233 zera< > as the

dust <6083 <aphar > of the earth <0776 >erets >: so <0834 >aher

number <4487 manah > the dust <6083 <aphar > of the earth <0776

be numbered <4487 manah >.

17 Arise <6965 quwm >, walk <1980 halak > through the land

<0776 >erets > in the length <0753 >orek > of it and in the

breadth <7341 rochab > of it; for I will give <5414 nathan > it

unto thee.

18 Then Abram <87> removed <0167 >ahal > [his] tent <0167 >ahal

<0436 >elown > of Mamre <4471 Mamre> >, which <0834 >aher > [is]

in Hebron <2275 Chebrown >, and built <1129 banah > there <8033

sham > an altar <4196 mizbeach > unto the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

Genesis 14

1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the days <3117 yowm >

of Amraphel <0569 >Amraphel > king <4428 melek > of Shinar <8152

5 And in the fourteenth year <8141 shaneh > came <0935 bow> >

Chedorlaomer <3540 K@dorla<omer >, and the kings <4428 melek >

7 And they returned <7725 shuwb >, and came <0935 bow> > to

8 And there went <3318 yatsa> > out the king <4428 melek > of

10 And the vale <6010 <emeq > of Siddim <7708 Siddiym > [was

Genesis 15

1. After <0310 >achar > these <0428 >el-leh > things <1697

10 And he took <3947 laqach > unto him all <3605 kol > these

11 And when the fowls <5861 <ayit > came <3381 yarad > down

<3381 yarad > upon the carcases <6297 peger >, Abram <87> drove

<5380 nashab > them away.

12. And when <1961 hayah > the sun <8121 shemesh > was going

13 And he said <0559 >amar > unto Abram <87>, Know <3045 yada<

15 And thou shalt go <0935 bow> > to thy fathers <1> in peace

17. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, that, when <1961 hayah >

18 In the same <1931 huw> > day <3117 yowm > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > made <3772 karath > a covenant <1285 b@riyth > with

Abram <87>, saying <0559 >amar >, Unto thy seed <2233 zera< >

Genesis 16

1. Now Sarai <8297 Saray > Abram's <87> wife <0802 >ishshah >

bare <3205 yalad > him no <3808 lo> > children: and she had an

handmaid <8198 shiphchah >, an Egyptian <4713 Mitsriy >, whose

name <8034 shem > [was] Hagar <1904 Hagar >.

2 And Sarai <8297 Saray > said <0559 >amar > unto Abram <87>,

Behold <2009 hinneh > now <4994 na> >, the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

hath restrained <6113 <atsar > me from bearing <3205 yalad >: I

pray <4994 na> > thee, go <0935 bow> > in unto my maid <8198

shiphchah >; it may <0194 >uwlay > be that I may obtain <1129

banah > children <1129 banah > by her. And Abram <87> hearkened

<8085 shama< > to the voice <6963 qowl > of Sarai <8297 Saray >.

3 And Sarai <8297 Saray > Abram's <87> wife <0802 >ishshah >

took <3947 laqach > Hagar <1904 Hagar > her maid <8198 shiphchah

had dwelt <3427 yashab > ten <6235 <eser > years <8141 shaneh >

in the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >, and gave

<5414 nathan > her to her husband <0376 >iysh > Abram <87> to be

his wife <0802 >ishshah >.

4. And he went <0935 bow> > in unto Hagar <1904 Hagar >, and

she conceived <2030 hareh >: and when she saw <7200 ra>ah > that

she had conceived <2030 hareh >, her mistress <1404 g@bereth >

was despised <7043 qalal > in her eyes <5869 <ayin >.

5 And Sarai <8297 Saray > said <0559 >amar > unto Abram <87>,

My wrong <2555 chamac > [be] upon thee: I have given <5414

nathan > my maid <8198 shiphchah > into thy bosom <2436 cheyq >;

and when she saw <7200 ra>ah > that she had conceived <2030

hareh >, I was despised <7043 qalal > in her eyes <5869 <ayin >:

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > judge <8199 shaphat > between <0996

beyn > me and thee.

6 But Abram <87> said <0559 >amar > unto Sarai <8297 Saray >,

Behold <2009 hinneh >, thy maid <8198 shiphchah > [is] in thy

hand <3027 yad >; do <6213 <asah > to her as it pleaseth thee.

And when Sarai <8297 Saray > dealt hardly <6031 <anah > with her,

she fled <1272 barach > from her face <6440 paniym >.

7. And the angel <4397 mal>ak > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

found <4672 matsa> > her by a fountain <5869 <ayin > of water

<4325 mayim > in the wilderness <4057 midbar >, by the fountain

<5869 <ayin > in the way <1870 derek > to Shur <7793 Shuwr >.

8 And he said <0559 >amar >, Hagar <1904 Hagar >, Sarai's <8297

Saray > maid <8198 shiphchah >, whence <0335 >ay > camest <0935

And she said <0559 >amar >, I flee <1272 barach > from the face

<6440 paniym > of my mistress <1404 g@bereth > Sarai <8297 Saray

9 And the angel <4397 mal>ak > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said

<0559 >amar > unto her, Return <7725 shuwb > to thy mistress

<1404 g@bereth >, and submit <6031 <anah > thyself under <8478

tachath > her hands <3027 yad >.

10. And the angel <4397 mal>ak > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

said <0559 >amar > unto her, I will multiply <7235 rabah > thy

seed <2233 zera< > exceedingly <7235 rabah >, that it shall not

be numbered <5608 caphar > for multitude <7230 rob >.

11 And the angel <4397 mal>ak > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

said <0559 >amar > unto her, Behold <2009 hinneh >, thou [art]

with child <2030 hareh >, and shalt bear <3205 yalad > a son

<1121 ben >, and shalt call <7121 qara> > his name <8034 shem >

Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l >; because <3588 kiy > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > hath heard <8085 shama< > thy affliction <6040 <oniy >.

12 And he will be a wild <6501 pere> > man <0120 >adam >; his

hand <3027 yad > [will be] against every <3605 kol > man, and

every <3605 kol > man's <0376 >iysh > hand <3027 yad > against

him; and he shall dwell <7931 shakan > in the presence <6440

paniym > of all <3605 kol > his brethren <0251 >ach >.

13 And she called <7121 qara> > the name <8034 shem > of the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > that spake <1696 dabar > unto her, Thou God

<0410 >el > seest <7210 ro>iy > me: for she said <0559 >amar >,

Have I also <1571 gam > here <1988 halom > looked <7200 ra>ah >

after <0310 >achar > him that seeth <7210 ro>iy > me?

14 Wherefore the well <0875 @>er > was called <7121 qara> >

Beerlahairoi <0883 B@>er la-Chay Ro>iy >; behold <2009 hinneh >,

[it is] between <0996 beyn > Kadesh <6946 Qadesh > and Bered

<1260 Bered >.

15. And Hagar <1904 Hagar > bare <3205 yalad > Abram <87> a son

<1121 ben >: and Abram <87> called <7121 qara> > his son's <1121

ben > name <8034 shem >, which <0834 >aher > Hagar <1904 Hagar >

bare <3205 yalad >, Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l >.

16 And Abram <87> [was] fourscore <8084 sh@moniym > and six

<8337 shesh > years <8141 shaneh > old <1121 ben >, when Hagar

<1904 Hagar > bare <3205 yalad > Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l > to

Abram <87>.

Genesis 17

1. And when <1961 hayah > Abram <87> was ninety <8673 tish<iym

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > appeared <7200 ra>ah > to Abram <87>,

3 And Abram <87> fell <5307 naphal > on <5921 <al > his face

<6440 paniym >: and God <0430 >elohiym > talked <1696 dabar >

with him, saying <0559 >amar >,

4. As for me, behold <2009 hinneh >, my covenant <1285 b@riyth

5 Neither <3808 lo> > shall thy name <8034 shem > any <5750

thy name <8034 shem > shall be Abraham <85>; for a father <1> of

many <1995 hamown > nations <1471 gowy > have I made <5414

6 And I will make thee exceeding <3966 m@<od > fruitful <6509

7. And I will establish <6965 quwm > my covenant <1285 b@riyth

God <0430 >elohiym > unto thee, and to thy seed <2233 zera< >

after <0310 >achar > thee.

8 And I will give <5414 nathan > unto thee, and to thy seed

<2233 zera< > after <0310 >achar > thee, the land <0776 >erets >

wherein thou art a stranger <4033 maguwr >, all <3605 kol > the

everlasting <5769 <owlam > possession <0272 >achuzzah >; and I

will be their God <0430 >elohiym >.

9 And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar > unto Abraham <85>,

Thou shalt keep <8104 shamar > my covenant <1285 b@riyth >

therefore, thou, and thy seed <2233 zera< > after <0310 >achar >

10 This <2063 zo>th > [is] my covenant <1285 b@riyth >, which

<0834 >aher > ye shall keep <8104 shamar >, between <0996 beyn >

me and you and thy seed <2233 zera< > after <0310 >achar > thee;

Every <3605 kol > man <2145 zakar > child among you shall be

circumcised <4135 muwl >.

11 And ye shall circumcise <5243 namal > the flesh <1320 basar

12 And he that is eight <8083 sh@moneh > days <3117 yowm > old

13 He that is born <3211 yaliyd > in thy house <1004 bayith >,

and he that is bought <4736 miqnah > with thy money <3701 keceph

14 And the uncircumcised <6189 <arel > man <2145 zakar > child

whose <0834 >aher > flesh <1320 basar > of his foreskin <6190

<orlah > is not circumcised <4135 muwl >, that soul <5315

nephesh > shall be cut <3772 karath > off from his people <5971

15. And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar > unto Abraham

<85>, As for Sarai <8297 Saray > thy wife <0802 >ishshah >, thou

shalt not call <7121 qara> > her name <8034 shem > Sarai <8297

16 And I will bless <1288 barak > her, and give <5414 nathan >

bless <1288 barak > her, and she shall be [a mother] of nations

17 Then Abraham <85> fell <5307 naphal > upon his face <6440

paniym >, and laughed <6711 tsachaq >, and said <0559 >amar > in

his heart <3820 leb >, Shall [a child] be born <3205 yalad >

18 And Abraham <85> said <0559 >amar > unto God <0430 >elohiym

an everlasting <5769 <owlam > covenant <1285 b@riyth >, [and]

with his seed <2233 zera< > after <0310 >achar > him.

20 And as for Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l >, I have heard <8085

21 But my covenant <1285 b@riyth > will I establish <6965 quwm

22 And he left <3615 kalah > off talking <1696 dabar > with him,

and God <0430 >elohiym > went <5927 <alah > up from Abraham

23. And Abraham <85> took <3947 laqach > Ishmael <3458

24 And Abraham <85> [was] ninety <8673 tish<iym > years <8141

25 And Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l > his son <1121 ben > [was]

thirteen years <8141 shaneh > old <1121 ben >, when he was

circumcised <4135 muwl > in the flesh <1320 basar > of his

26 In the selfsame day <3117 yowm > was Abraham <85>

Genesis 18

1. And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > appeared <7200 ra>ah > unto him

9. And they said <0559 >amar > unto him, Where <0346 >ayeh >

[is] Sarah <8283 Sarah > thy wife <0802 >ishshah >? And he said

<0559 >amar >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, in the tent <0168 >ohel >.

10 And he said <0559 >amar >, I will certainly return <7725

shuwb > unto thee according to the time <6256 <eth > of life

<2416 chay >; and, lo <2009 hinneh >, Sarah <8283 Sarah > thy

wife <0802 >ishshah > shall have a son <1121 ben >. And Sarah

<8283 Sarah > heard <8085 shama< > [it] in the tent <0168 >ohel

11 Now Abraham <85> and Sarah <8283 Sarah > [were] old <2205

zaqen > [and] well stricken <0935 bow> > in age <3117 yowm >;

[and] it ceased <2308 chadal > to be with Sarah <8283 Sarah >

after the manner <0734 >orach > of women <0802 >ishshah >.

12 Therefore Sarah <8283 Sarah > laughed <6711 tsachaq > within

<7130 qereb > herself, saying <0559 >amar >, After <0310 >achar

> I am waxed old <4086 Madmen > shall I have pleasure <5730

<eden >, my lord <0113 >adown > being old <2204 zaqen > also?

13 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto Abraham

<85>, Wherefore <4100 mah > did Sarah <8283 Sarah > laugh <6711

tsachaq >, saying <0559 >amar >, Shall I of a surety <0552

>umnam > bear <3205 yalad > a child, which <0589 >aniy > am old

<2204 zaqen >?

14 Is any thing <1697 dabar > too hard <6381 pala> > for the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah >? At the time appointed <4150 mow<ed > I

will return <7725 shuwb > unto thee, according to the time <6256

<eth > of life <2416 chay >, and Sarah <8283 Sarah > shall have

a son <1121 ben >.

15 Then Sarah <8283 Sarah > denied <3584 kachash >, saying

<0559 >amar >, I laughed <6711 tsachaq > not; for she was afraid

<3372 yare> >. And he said <0559 >amar >, Nay <3808 lo> >; but

thou didst laugh <6711 tsachaq >.

16. And the men <0582 >enowsh > rose <6965 quwm > up from

thence <8033 sham >, and looked <8259 shaqaph > toward Sodom

<5467 C@dom >: and Abraham <85> went <1980 halak > with them to

bring <7971 shalach > them on the way <7971 shalach >.

17 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar >, Shall I

hide <3680 kacah > from Abraham <85> that thing which <0834

>aher > I do <6213 <asah >;

18 Seeing that Abraham <85> shall surely become <1961 hayah > a

great <1419 gadowl > and mighty <6099 <atsuwm > nation <1471

gowy >, and all <3605 kol > the nations <1471 gowy > of the

earth <0776 >erets > shall be blessed <1288 barak > in him?

19 For I know <3045 yada< > him, that he will command <6680

tsavah > his children <1121 ben > and his household <1004 bayith

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

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 >;

21 I will go <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > now <4994 na> >,

and see <7200 ra>ah > whether they have done <6213 <asah >

altogether <3617 kalah > according to the cry <6818 tsa<aqah >

of it, which is come <0935 bow> > unto me; and if <0518 >im >

not, I will know <3045 yada< >.

22 And the men <0582 >enowsh > turned <6437 panah > their faces

from thence <8033 sham >, and went <3212 yalak > toward Sodom

<5467 C@dom >: but Abraham <85> stood <5975 <amad > yet <5750

<owd > before <6440 paniym > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

23. And Abraham <85> drew near <5066 nagash >, and said <0559

>amar >, Wilt thou also <0637 >aph > destroy <5595 caphah > the

righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > with the wicked <7563 rasha< >?

24 Peradventure <0194 >uwlay > there be fifty <2572

chamishshiym > righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > within <8432 tavek >

the city <5892 <iyr >: wilt thou also <0637 >aph > destroy <5595

for the fifty <2572 chamishshiym > righteous <6662 tsaddiyq >

that [are] therein <7130 qereb >?

25 That be far <2486 chaliylah > from thee to do <6213 <asah >

after this <2088 zeh > manner <1697 dabar >, to slay <4191 muwth

and that the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq > should be as the wicked

<7563 rasha< >, that be far <2486 chaliylah > from thee: Shall

not the Judge <8199 shaphat > of all <3605 kol > the earth <0776

26 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar >, If <0518

the city <5892 <iyr >, then I will spare <5375 nasa> > all <3605

kol > the place <4725 maqowm > for their sakes <5668 <abuwr >.

27 And Abraham <85> answered <6030 <anah > and said <0559 >amar

ya>al > upon me to speak <1696 dabar > unto the Lord <0136

28 Peradventure <0194 >uwlay > there shall lack <2637 chacer >

five <2568 chamesh > of the fifty <2572 chamishshiym > righteous

<6662 tsaddiyq >: wilt thou destroy <7843 shachath > all <3605

And he said <0559 >amar >, If <0518 >im > I find <4672 matsa> >

there <8033 sham > forty <0705 >arba<iym > and five <2568

chamesh >, I will not destroy <7843 shachath > [it].

29 And he spake <1696 dabar > unto him yet <5750 <owd > again

<3254 yacaph >, and said <0559 >amar >, Peradventure <0194

<asah > [it] for forty's <0705 >arba<iym > sake <5668 <abuwr >.

30 And he said <0559 >amar > [unto him], Oh <4994 na> > let not

the Lord <0136 >Adonay > be angry <2734 charah >, and I will

speak <1696 dabar >: Peradventure <0194 >uwlay > there <8033

<6213 <asah > [it], if <0518 >im > I find <4672 matsa> > thirty

31 And he said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2009 hinneh > now <4994

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

will not destroy <7843 shachath > [it] for ten's <6235 <eser >

sake <5668 <abuwr >.

33 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > went <3212 yalak > his way

Genesis 19

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

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

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>

<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

14 And Lot <3876 Lowt > went <3318 yatsa> > out, and spake

<1696 dabar > unto his sons <2860 chathan > in law <2859 chathan

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

<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

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

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

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

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 <5467 C@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

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

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

let us make him drink <8248 shaqah > wine <3196 yayin > this

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

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

<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

Genesis 20

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

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

<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

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

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 his wife <0802 >ishshah >, and his maidservants <0519 >amah

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

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

<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

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

kiy > he [is] thy seed <2233 zera< >.

14. And Abraham <85> rose <7925 shakam > up early <7925 shakam

<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

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

Hagar >? fear <3372 yare> > not; for God <0430 >elohiym > hath

heard <8085 shama< > the voice <6963 qowl > of the lad <5288

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

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

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

23 Now <6258 <attah > therefore swear <7650 shaba< > unto me

deal falsely <8266 shaqar > with me, nor with my son <5220 neked

according to the kindness <2617 checed > that I have done <6213

the land <0776 >erets > wherein <0834 >aher > thou hast

sojourned <1481 guwr >.

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 <4310 miy > hath done <6213 <asah > this <2088 zeh >

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

31 Wherefore <4100 mah > he called <7121 qara> > that place

32 Thus <3541 koh > they made <3772 karath > a covenant <1285

rose <6965 quwm > up, and Phichol <6369 Piykol > the chief

returned <7725 shuwb > into <0413 >el > the land <0776 >erets >

of the Philistines <6430 P@lishtiy >.

33. And [Abraham] planted <5193 nata< > a grove <0815 >eshel >

34 And Abraham <85> sojourned <1481 guwr > in the Philistines

Genesis 22

1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass after <0310 >achar > these

3. And Abraham <85> rose <7925 shakam > up early <7925 shakam >

ass <2543 chamowr >, and took <3947 laqach > two <8147 sh@nayim

Yitschaq > his son <1121 ben >, and clave <1234 baqa< > the wood

<6965 quwm > up, and went <3212 yalak > unto the place <4725

maqowm > of which <0834 >aher > God <0430 >elohiym > had told

4 Then on the third <7992 sh@liyshiy > day <3117 yowm > Abraham

<85> lifted <5375 nasa> > up his eyes <5869 <ayin >, and saw

<7200 ra>ah > the place <4725 maqowm > afar <7350 rachowq > off.

5 And Abraham <85> said <0559 >amar > unto his young <5288

na<ar > men, Abide <3427 yashab > ye here <6311 poh > with the

ass <2543 chamowr >; and I and the lad <5288 na<ar > will go

<3212 yalak > yonder <3541 koh > and worship <7812 shachah >,

and come <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > to you.

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

<0784 >esh > and the wood <6086 <ets >: but where <0834 >aher >

[is] the lamb <7716 seh > for a burnt <5930 <olah > offering?

8 And Abraham <85> said <0559 >amar >, My son <1121 ben >, God

<0430 >elohiym > will provide <7200 ra>ah > himself a lamb <7716

yalak > both <8147 sh@nayim > of them together <3162 yachad >.

9 And they came <0935 bow> > to the place <4725 maqowm > which

<0834 >aher > God <0430 >elohiym > had told <0559 >amar > him of;

and Abraham <85> built <1129 banah > an altar <4196 mizbeach >

there <8033 sham >, and laid the wood <6086 <ets > in order, and

bound <6123 <aqad > Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > his son <1121 ben >,

and laid <7760 suwm > him on <5921 <al > the altar <4196

mizbeach > upon the wood <6086 <ets >.

10 And Abraham <85> stretched <7971 shalach > forth his hand

<3027 yad >, and took <3947 laqach > the knife <3979 ma>akeleth

11. And the angel <4397 mal>ak > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

called <7121 qara> > unto him out of heaven <8064 shamayim >,

and said <0559 >amar >, Abraham <85>, Abraham <85>: and he said

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

12 And he said <0559 >amar >, Lay <7971 shalach > not thine

hand <3027 yad > upon the lad <5288 na<ar >, neither <0408 >al >

do <6213 <asah > thou any <3972 m@uwmah > thing unto him: for

now <6258 <attah > I know <3045 yada< > that thou fearest <3373

13 And Abraham <85> lifted <5375 nasa> > up his eyes <5869

<ayin >, and looked <7200 ra>ah >, and behold <2009 hinneh >

behind <0310 >achar > [him] a ram <0352 >ayil > caught <0270

and Abraham <85> went <3212 yalak > and took <3947 laqach > the

ram <0352 >ayil >, and offered <5927 <alah > him up for a burnt

<5930 <olah > offering in the stead <8478 tachath > of his son

<1121 ben >.

14 And Abraham <85> called <7121 qara> > the name <8034 shem >

of that place <4725 maqowm > Jehovahjireh <3070 Y@hovah yireh >:

as it is said <0559 >amar > [to] this day <3117 yowm >, In the

mount <2022 har > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > it shall be seen

<7200 ra>ah >.

15. And the angel <4397 mal>ak > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

called <7121 qara> > unto Abraham <85> out of heaven <8064

shamayim > the second <8145 sheniy > time <6256 <eth >,

16 And said <0559 >amar >, By myself have I sworn <7650 shaba<

thou hast done <6213 <asah > this thing <1697 dabar >, and hast

not withheld <2820 chasak > thy son <1121 ben >, thine only

<3173 yachiyd > [son]:

17 That in blessing <1288 barak > I will bless <1288 barak >

thee, and in multiplying <7235 rabah > I will multiply <7235

rabah > thy seed <2233 zera< > as the stars <3556 kowkab > of

the heaven <8064 shamayim >, and as the sand <2344 chowl > which

and thy seed <2233 zera< > shall possess <3423 yarash > the

18 And in thy seed <2233 zera< > shall all <3605 kol > the

nations <1471 gowy > of the earth <0776 >erets > be blessed

<1288 barak >; because thou hast obeyed <8085 shama< > my voice

19 So Abraham <85> returned <7725 shuwb > unto his young <5288

na<ar > men, and they rose <6965 quwm > up and went <3212 yalak

20. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass after <0310 >achar >

these things <1697 dabar >, that it was told <5046 nagad >

3. And Abraham <85> stood <6965 quwm > up from before his dead

of Heth <2845 Cheth >, saying <0559 >amar >,

5 And the children <1121 ben > of Heth <2845 Cheth > answered

7 And Abraham <85> stood <6965 quwm > up, and bowed <7812

shachah > himself to the people <5971 <am > of the land <0776

8 And he communed <1696 dabar > with them, saying <0559 >amar >,

If it be your mind <5315 nephesh > that I should bury <6912

10 And Ephron <6085 <Ephrown > dwelt <3427 yashab > among <8432

Ephron <6085 <Ephrown > the Hittite <2850 Chittiy > answered

14 And Ephron <6085 <Ephrown > answered <6030 <anah > Abraham

16. And Abraham <85> hearkened <8085 shama< > unto Ephron <6085

5 And the servant <5650 <ebed > said <0559 >amar > unto him,

Peradventure <0194 >uwlay > the woman <0802 >ishshah > will not

6 And Abraham <85> said <0559 >amar > unto him, Beware <8104

7 The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > of heaven <8064

13 Behold <2009 hinneh >, I stand <5324 natsab > [here] by the

to the well <5869 <ayin >, and filled <4390 male> > her pitcher

17 And the servant <5650 <ebed > ran <7323 ruwts > to meet

20 And she hasted <4116 mahar >, and emptied <6168 <arah > her

21 And the man <0376 >iysh > wondering <7583 sha>ah > at her

held <2790 charash > his peace <2790 charash >, to wit <3045

yada< > whether <0518 >im > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > had made

22 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, as the camels <1581 gamal

thee: is there room <4725 maqowm > [in] thy father's <1> house

24 And she said <0559 >amar > unto him, I [am] the daughter

Milcah <4435 Milkah >, which <0834 >aher > she bare <3205 yalad

26 And the man <0376 >iysh > bowed <6915 qadad > down <6915

qadad > his head, and worshipped <7812 shachah > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah >.

27 And he said <0559 >amar >, Blessed <1288 barak > [be] the

28 And the damsel <5291 na<arah > ran <7323 ruwts >, and told

<5046 nagad > [them of] her mother's <0517 >em > house <1004

bayith > these things <1697 dabar >.

29. And Rebekah <7259 Ribqah > had a brother <0251 >ach >, and

his name <8034 shem > [was] Laban <3837 Laban >: and Laban <3837

Laban > ran <7323 ruwts > out unto the man <0376 >iysh >, unto

30 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when <3588 kiy > he saw

<7200 ra>ah > the earring <5141 nexem > and bracelets <6781

saying <0559 >amar >, Thus <3541 koh > spake <1696 dabar > the

31 And he said <0559 >amar >, Come <0935 bow> > in, thou

blessed <1288 barak > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >; wherefore

<4100 mah > standest <5975 <amad > thou without <2351 chuwts >?

for I have prepared <6437 panah > the house <1004 bayith >, and

room <4725 maqowm > for the camels <1581 gamal >.

32 And the man <0376 >iysh > came <0935 bow> > into the house

<1004 bayith >: and he ungirded <6605 pathach > his camels <1581

gamal >, and gave <5414 nathan > straw <8401 teben > and

water <4325 mayim > to wash <7364 rachats > his feet <7272 regel

33 And there was set <7760 suwm > [meat] before <6440 paniym >

him to eat <0398 >akal >: but he said <0559 >amar >, I will not

eat <0398 >akal >, until I have told <1696 dabar > mine errand

<1697 dabar >. And he said <0559 >amar >, Speak <1696 dabar > on.

34 And he said <0559 >amar >, I [am] Abraham's <85> servant

<5650 <ebed >.

35 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath blessed <1288 barak > my

master <0113 >adown > greatly <3966 m@<od >; and he is become

<1431 gadal > great <1431 gadal >: and he hath given <5414

silver <3701 keceph >, and gold <2091 zahab >, and menservants

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

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

36 And Sarah <8283 Sarah > my master's <0113 >adown > wife

<0802 >ishshah > bare <3205 yalad > a son <1121 ben > to my

master <0113 >adown > when <0310 >achar > she was old <2209

37 And my master <0113 >adown > made me swear <7650 shaba< >,

saying <0559 >amar >, Thou shalt not take <3947 laqach > a wife

<0802 >ishshah > to my son <1121 ben > of the daughters <1363

38 But thou shalt go <3212 yalak > unto my father's <1> house

<3947 laqach > a wife <0802 >ishshah > unto my son <1121 ben >.

39 And I said <0559 >amar > unto my master <0113 >adown >,

Peradventure <0194 >uwlay > the woman <0802 >ishshah > will not

follow me.

40 And he said <0559 >amar > unto me, The LORD <3068 Y@hovah >,

before <6440 paniym > whom <0834 >aher > I walk <1980 halak >,

will send <7971 shalach > his angel <4397 mal>ak > with thee,

41 Then <0227 >az > shalt thou be clear <5352 naqah > from

42 And I came <0935 bow> > this day <3117 yowm > unto the well

<5869 <ayin >, and said <0559 >amar >, O LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

God <0430 >elohiym > of my master <0113 >adown > Abraham <85>,

if <0518 >im > now <4994 na> > thou do prosper <6743 tsalach >

my way <1870 derek > which <0834 >aher > I go <1980 halak >:

43 Behold <2009 hinneh >, I stand <5324 natsab > by the well

<5869 <ayin > of water <4325 mayim >; and it shall come <1961

cometh <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > to draw <7579 sha>ab

44 And she say <0559 >amar > to me, Both <8147 sh@nayim > drink

<8354 shathah > thou, and I will also <1571 gam > draw <7579

45 And before <2962 terem > I had done <3615 kalah > speaking

<1696 dabar > in mine heart <3820 leb >, behold <2009 hinneh >,

Rebekah <7259 Ribqah > came <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> >

with her pitcher <3537 kad > on <5921 <al > her shoulder <7926

sh@kem >; and she went <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > unto the

well <5869 <ayin >, and drew <7579 sha>ab > [water <4325 mayim

46 And she made haste <4116 mahar >, and let <3381 yarad > down

<3381 yarad > her pitcher <3537 kad > from her [shoulder], and

said <0559 >amar >, Drink <8354 shathah >, and I will give thy

camels <1581 gamal > drink <8248 shaqah > also <1571 gam >: so I

drank <8354 shathah >, and she made the camels <1581 gamal >

drink <8354 shathah > also <1571 gam >.

47 And I asked <7592 sha>al > her, and said <0559 >amar >,

Whose daughter <1323 bath > [art] thou? And she said <0559 >amar

Nahor's <5152 Q@riyowth Nachowr > son <1121 ben >, whom <0834

put <7760 suwm > the earring <5141 nexem > upon her face <0639

yad >.

48 And I bowed <6915 qadad > down <6915 qadad > my head, and

worshipped <7812 shachah > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, and blessed

<1288 barak > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > of

my master <0113 >adown > Abraham <85>, which <0834 >aher > had

led <5148 nachah > me in the right <0571 >emeth > way <1870

brother's <0251 >ach > daughter <1323 bath > unto his son <1121

49 And now <6258 <attah > if <0518 >im > ye will deal <6213

<asah > kindly <2617 checed > and truly <0571 >emeth > with my

master <0113 >adown >, tell <5046 nagad > me: and if <0518 >im >

right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn >, or <0176 >ow > to the

left <8040 s@mo>wl >.

50 Then Laban <3837 Laban > and Bethuel <1328 B@thuw>el >

answered <6030 <anah > and said <0559 >amar >, The thing <1697

we cannot speak <1696 dabar > unto thee bad <7451 ra< > or <0176

51 Behold <2009 hinneh >, Rebekah <7259 Ribqah > [is] before

52 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, that, when Abraham's <85>

[bowing himself] to the earth <0776 >erets >.

53 And the servant <5650 <ebed > brought <3318 yatsa> > forth

<3318 yatsa> > jewels <3627 k@liy > of silver <3701 keceph >,

and jewels <3627 k@liy > of gold <2091 zahab >, and raiment

Ribqah >: he gave <5414 nathan > also to her brother <0251 >ach

54. And they did eat <0398 >akal > and drink <8354 shathah >,

he and the men <0582 >enowsh > that [were] with him, and tarried

<3885 luwn > all <3885 luwn > night; and they rose <6965 quwm >

up in the morning <1242 boqer >, and he said <0559 >amar >, Send

<7971 shalach > me away unto my master <0113 >adown >.

55 And her brother <0251 >ach > and her mother <0517 >em > said

<0559 >amar >, Let the damsel <5291 na<arah > abide <3427 yashab

56 And he said <0559 >amar > unto them, Hinder <0309 >achar >

tsalach > my way <1870 derek >; send <7971 shalach > me away

that I may go <3212 yalak > to my master <0113 >adown >.

57 And they said <0559 >amar >, We will call <7121 qara> > the

damsel <5291 na<arah >, and enquire <7592 sha>al > at her mouth

<6310 peh >.

58 And they called <7121 qara> > Rebekah <7259 Ribqah >, and

said <0559 >amar > unto her, Wilt thou go <3212 yalak > with

this <2088 zeh > man <0376 >iysh >? And she said <0559 >amar >,

I will go <3212 yalak >.

59 And they sent <7971 shalach > away Rebekah <7259 Ribqah >

their sister <0269 >achowth >, and her nurse <3243 yanaq >, and

Abraham's <85> servant <5650 <ebed >, and his men <0582 >enowsh

60 And they blessed <1288 barak > Rebekah <7259 Ribqah >, and

said <0559 >amar > unto her, Thou [art] our sister <0269

millions <7233 r@babah >, and let thy seed <2233 zera< > possess

<3423 yarash > the gate <8179 sha<ar > of those which hate <8130

61 And Rebekah <7259 Ribqah > arose <6965 quwm >, and her

damsels <5291 na<arah >, and they rode <7392 rakab > upon the

camels <1581 gamal >, and followed the man <0376 >iysh >: and

the servant <5650 <ebed > took <3947 laqach > Rebekah <7259

Ribqah >, and went <3212 yalak > his way <3212 yalak >.

62. And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > came <0935 bow> > from the way

<0935 bow> > of the well Lahairoi <0883 B@>er la-Chay Ro>iy >;

for he dwelt <3427 yashab > in the south <5045 negeb > country

63 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > went <3318 yatsa> > out to

meditate in the field <7704 sadeh > at the eventide: and he

lifted <5375 nasa> > up his eyes <5869 <ayin >, and saw <7200

64 And Rebekah <7259 Ribqah > lifted <5375 nasa> > up her eyes

Yitschaq >, she lighted <5307 naphal > off <5921 <al > the camel

65 For she [had] said <0559 >amar > unto the servant <5650

hallazeh > that walketh <1980 halak > in the field <7704 sadeh >

she took <3947 laqach > a vail <6809 tsa<iyph >, and covered

66 And the servant <5650 <ebed > told <5608 caphar > Isaac

<3327 Yitschaq > all <3605 kol > things <1697 dabar > that he

had done <6213 <asah >.

67 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > brought <0935 bow> > her into his

mother <0517 >em > Sarah's <8283 Sarah > tent <0168 >ohel >, and

took <3947 laqach > Rebekah <7259 Ribqah >, and she became <1961

her: and Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > was comforted <5162 nacham >

after <0310 >achar > his mother's <0517 >em > [death].

Genesis 25

1. Then again <3254 yacaph > Abraham <85> took <3947 laqach > a

4 And the sons <1121 ben > of Midian <4080 Midyan >; Ephah

5 And Abraham <85> gave <5414 nathan > all <3605 kol > that he

6 But unto the sons <1121 ben > of the concubines <6370

gave <5414 nathan > gifts <4979 mattanah >, and sent <7971

Rebekah <7259 Ribqah > to wife <0802 >ishshah >, the daughter

21 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > intreated <6279 <athar > the LORD

22 And the children <1121 ben > struggled <7533 ratsats >

23 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto her,

Two <8147 sh@nayim > nations <1471 gowy > [are] in thy womb

26 And after <0310 >achar > that came <3318 yatsa> > his

27 And the boys <5288 na<ar > grew <1431 gadal >: and Esau

<6215 <Esav > was a cunning <3045 yada< > hunter <6718 tsayid >,

a man <0376 >iysh > of the field <7704 sadeh >; and Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob > [was] a plain <8535 tam > man <0376 >iysh >, dwelling

<3427 yashab > in tents <0168 >ohel >.

28 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > loved <0157 >ahab > Esau <6215

that same <2088 zeh > red <0122 >adom > [pottage]; for I [am]

31 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar >, Sell <4376

32 And Esau <6215 <Esav > said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2009

and what <4100 mah > profit shall this <2088 zeh > birthright

33 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar >, Swear <7650

34 Then Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > gave <5414 nathan > Esau <6215

1. And there was a famine <7458 ra<ab > in the land <0776

And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > went <3212 yalak > unto Abimelech

2 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > appeared <7200 ra>ah > unto him,

6. And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > dwelt <3427 yashab > in Gerar

<1642 G@rar >:

7 And the men <0582 >enowsh > of the place <4725 maqowm > asked

feared <3372 yare> > to say <0559 >amar >, [She is] my wife

she [was] fair <2896 towb > to look <4758 mar>eh > upon.

8 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when <3588 kiy > he had

that Abimelech <40> king <4428 melek > of the Philistines <6430

9 And Abimelech <40> called <7121 qara> > Isaac <3327 Yitschaq

him, Because <3588 kiy > I said <0559 >amar >, Lest <6435 pen >

I die <4191 muwth > for her.

10 And Abimelech <40> said <0559 >amar >, What <4100 mah > [is]

this <2063 zo>th > thou hast done <6213 <asah > unto us? one

<0259 >echad > of the people <5971 <am > might lightly <4592

and thou shouldest have brought <0935 bow> > guiltiness <0817

11 And Abimelech <40> charged <6680 tsavah > all <3605 kol >

[his] people <5971 <am >, saying <0559 >amar >, He that toucheth

<5060 naga< > this <2088 zeh > man <0376 >iysh > or his wife

12. Then Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > sowed <2232 zara< > in that

land <0776 >erets >, and received <4672 matsa> > in the same

<1931 huw> > year <8141 shaneh > an hundredfold: and the LORD

13 And the man <0376 >iysh > waxed great <1431 gadal >, and

went <3212 yalak > forward <1980 halak >, and grew <1432 gadel >

until <5704 <ad > he became <1431 gadal > very <3966 m@<od >

15 For all <3605 kol > the wells <0875 @>er > which <0834 >aher

16 And Abimelech <40> said <0559 >amar > unto Isaac <3327

Yitschaq >, Go <3212 yalak > from us; for thou art much <3966

m@<od > mightier <6105 <atsam > than we.

17 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > departed <3212 yalak > thence

<8033 sham >, and pitched <2583 chanah > his tent in the valley

<5158 nachal > of Gerar <1642 G@rar >, and dwelt <3427 yashab >

18 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > digged <2658 chaphar > again

which <0834 >aher > they had digged <2658 chaphar > in the days

<6430 P@lishtiy > had stopped <5640 catham > them after <0310

<7121 qara> > their names <8034 shem > after the names <8034

19 And Isaac's <3327 Yitschaq > servants <5650 <ebed > digged

<2658 chaphar > in the valley <5158 nachal >, and found <4672

matsa> > there <8033 sham > a well <0875 @>er > of springing

20 And the herdmen <7462 ra<ah > of Gerar <1642 G@rar > did

strive <7378 riyb > with Isaac's <3327 Yitschaq > herdmen <7462

ra<ah >, saying <0559 >amar >, The water <4325 mayim > [is] ours:

and he called <7121 qara> > the name <8034 shem > of the well

21 And they digged <2658 chaphar > another <0312 >acher > well

and he called <7121 qara> > the name <8034 shem > of it Sitnah

22 And he removed <6275 <athaq > from thence <8033 sham >, and

digged <2658 chaphar > another <0312 >acher > well <0875 @>er >;

and for that they strove <7378 riyb > not: and he called <7121

23 And he went <5927 <alah > up from thence <8033 sham > to

Beersheba <0884 B@>er Sheba< >.

24 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > appeared <7200 ra>ah > unto him

25 And he builded <1129 banah > an altar <4196 mizbeach > there

Isaac's <3327 Yitschaq > servants <5650 <ebed > digged <3738

26. Then Abimelech <40> went <1980 halak > to him from Gerar

friends <4828 merea< >, and Phichol <6369 Piykol > the chief

27 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > said <0559 >amar > unto them,

Wherefore <4069 madduwa< > come <0935 bow> > ye to me, seeing

28 And they said <0559 >amar >, We saw <7200 ra>ah > certainly

30 And he made <6213 <asah > them a feast <4960 mishteh >, and

they did eat <0398 >akal > and drink <8354 shathah >.

31 And they rose <7925 shakam > up betimes <7925 shakam > in

32 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass the same <1931 huw> > day

My son <1121 ben >: and he said <0559 >amar > unto him, Behold

2 And he said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2009 hinneh > now <4994

I may eat <0398 >akal >; that my soul <5315 nephesh > may bless

5 And Rebekah <7259 Ribqah > heard <8085 shama< > when <3588

kiy > Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > spake <1696 dabar > to Esau <6215

<Esav > his son <1121 ben >. And Esau <6215 <Esav > went <3212

yalak > to the field <7704 sadeh > to hunt <6679 tsuwd > [for]

venison <6718 tsayid >, [and] to bring <0935 bow> > [it].

6. And Rebekah <7259 Ribqah > spake <0559 >amar > unto Jacob

<3290 Ya<aqob > her son <1121 ben >, saying <0559 >amar >,

Behold <2009 hinneh >, I heard <8085 shama< > thy father <1>

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > before <6440 paniym > my death <4194 maveth

9 Go <3212 yalak > now <4994 na> > to the flock <6629 tso>n >,

and fetch <3947 laqach > me from thence <8033 sham > two <8147

mat<am > meat for thy father <1>, such as he loveth <0157 >ahab

10 And thou shalt bring <0935 bow> > [it] to thy father <1>,

that he may eat <0398 >akal >, and that he may bless <1288 barak

11 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar > to Rebekah

<7259 Ribqah > his mother <0517 >em >, Behold <2005 hen >, Esau

<6215 <Esav > my brother <0251 >ach > [is] a hairy <8163 sa<iyr

<0376 >iysh >:

12 My father <1> peradventure <0194 >uwlay > will feel <4959

mashash > me, and I shall seem to him as a deceiver <8591 ta<a<

me, and not a blessing <1293 B@rakah >.

13 And his mother <0517 >em > said <0559 >amar > unto him, Upon

me [be] thy curse <7045 q@lalah >, my son <1121 ben >: only obey

<8085 shama< > my voice <6963 qowl >, and go <3212 yalak > fetch

<3947 laqach > me [them].

14 And he went <3212 yalak >, and fetched <3947 laqach >, and

brought <0935 bow> > [them] to his mother <0517 >em >: and his

mother <0517 >em > made <6213 <asah > savoury <4303 mat<am >

meat, such as his father <1> loved <0157 >ahab >.

15 And Rebekah <7259 Ribqah > took <3947 laqach > goodly <2530

chamad > raiment <0899 beged > of her eldest <1419 gadowl > son

<1121 ben > Esau <6215 <Esav >, which <0834 >aher > [were] with

her in the house <1004 bayith >, and put <3847 labash > them

upon Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > her younger <6996 qatan > son <1121

ben >:

16 And she put <3847 labash > the skins <5785 <owr > of the

kids <1423 g@diy > of the goats <5795 <ez > upon his hands <3027

yad >, and upon the smooth <2513 chelqah > of his neck <6677

tsavva>r >:

17 And she gave <5414 nathan > the savoury <4303 mat<am > meat

and the bread <3899 lechem >, which <0834 >aher > she had

prepared <6213 <asah >, into the hand <3027 yad > of her son

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

18. And he came <0935 bow> > unto his father <1>, and said

<0559 >amar >, My father <1>: and he said <0559 >amar >, Here

<2009 hinneh > [am] I; who <4310 miy > [art] thou, my son <1121

ben >?

19 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > said <0559 >amar > unto his father

<1>, I [am] Esau <6215 <Esav > thy firstborn <1060 b@kowr >; I

have done <6213 <asah > according as thou badest <1696 dabar >

me: arise <6965 quwm >, I pray <4994 na> > thee, sit <3427

yashab > and eat <0398 >akal > of my venison <6718 tsayid >,

that thy soul <5315 nephesh > may bless <1288 barak > me.

20 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > said <0559 >amar > unto his son

<1121 ben >, How <4100 mah > [is it] that thou hast found <4672

matsa> > [it] so quickly <4116 mahar >, my son <1121 ben >? And

he said <0559 >amar >, Because <3588 kiy > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > thy God <0430 >elohiym > brought <7136 qarah > [it] to

me.

21 And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > said <0559 >amar > unto Jacob

<3290 Ya<aqob >, Come <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash >, I pray

<4994 na> > thee, that I may feel <4184 muwsh > thee, my son

<1121 ben >, whether thou [be] my very <2088 zeh > son <1121 ben

22 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > went <5066 nagash > near <5066

nagash > unto Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > his father <1>; and he felt

<4959 mashash > him, and said <0559 >amar >, The voice <6963

qowl > [is] Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob > voice <6963 qowl >, but the

hands <3027 yad > [are] the hands <3027 yad > of Esau <6215

<Esav >.

23 And he discerned <5234 nakar > him not, because <3588 kiy >

his hands <3027 yad > were hairy <8163 sa<iyr >, as his brother

<0251 >ach > Esau's <6215 <Esav > hands <3027 yad >: so he

blessed <1288 barak > him.

24 And he said <0559 >amar >, [Art] thou my very <2088 zeh >

son <1121 ben > Esau <6215 <Esav >? And he said <0559 >amar >, I

[am].

25 And he said <0559 >amar >, Bring <5066 nagash > [it] near

<5066 nagash > to me, and I will eat <0398 >akal > of my son's

<1121 ben > venison <6718 tsayid >, that my soul <5315 nephesh >

may bless <1288 barak > thee. 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 >.

26 And his father <1> Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > said <0559 >amar >

unto him, Come <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash > now <4994 na>

27 And he came <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash >, and kissed

<5401 nashaq > him: and he smelled <7306 ruwach > the smell

<7381 reyach > of his raiment <0899 beged >, and blessed <1288

barak > him, and said <0559 >amar >, See <7200 ra>ah >, the

smell <7381 reyach > of my son <1121 ben > [is] as the smell

<7381 reyach > of a field <7704 sadeh > which <0834 >aher > the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath blessed <1288 barak >:

28 Therefore God <0430 >elohiym > give <5414 nathan > thee of

the dew <2919 tal > of heaven <8064 shamayim >, and the fatness

<4924 mashman > of the earth <0776 >erets >, and plenty <7230

rob > of corn <1715 dagan > and wine <8492 tiyrowsh >:

29 Let people <5971 <am > serve <5647 <abad > thee, and nations

<3816 l@om > bow <7812 shachah > down <7812 shachah > to thee:

be lord <1376 g@biyr > over thy brethren <0251 >ach >, and let

thy mother's <0517 >em > sons <1121 ben > bow <7812 shachah >

down <7812 shachah > to thee: cursed <0779 >arar > [be] every

one that curseth <0779 >arar > thee, and blessed <1288 barak >

[be] he that blesseth <1288 barak > thee.

30. 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

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

<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

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

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

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

heaven <8064 shamayim > from above <5921 <al >;

40 And by thy sword <2719 chereb > shalt thou live <2421 chayah

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

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

touching thee, doth comfort <5162 nacham > himself, [purposing]

43 Now <6258 <attah > therefore, my son <1121 ben >, obey <8085

be deprived <7921 shakol > also <1571 gam > of you both <8147

46 And Rebekah <7259 Ribqah > said <0559 >amar > to Isaac <3327

Yitschaq >, I am weary <6973 quwts > of my life <2416 chay >

<0776 >erets >, what <4100 mah > good shall my life <2416 chay >

do me?

Genesis 28

1. And Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > called <7121 qara> > Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob >, and blessed <1288 barak > him, and charged <6680

tsavah > him, and said <0559 >amar > unto him, Thou shalt not

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

<1363 gobahh > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >.

2 Arise <6965 quwm >, go <3212 yalak > to Padanaram <6307

Paddan >, to the house <1004 bayith > of Bethuel <1328 B@thuw>el

daughters <1363 gobahh > of Laban <3837 Laban > thy mother's

<0517 >em > brother <0251 >ach >.

3 And God <0410 >el > Almighty <7706 Shadday > bless <1288

barak > thee, and make thee fruitful <6509 parah >, and multiply

<7235 rabah > thee, that thou mayest be a multitude <6951 qahal

4 And give <5414 nathan > thee the blessing <1293 B@rakah > of

Abraham <85>, to thee, and to thy seed <2233 zera< > with thee;

that thou mayest inherit <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 >: and he went <3212 yalak > to Padanaram <6307

Paddan > unto Laban <3837 Laban >, son <1121 ben > of Bethuel

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 >ishshah > from thence

<8033 sham >; and that as he blessed <1288 barak > him 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

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 >, and took <3947 laqach > unto the wives <0802

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

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

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

<85> thy father <1>, and the God <0430 >elohiym > of Isaac <3327

Yitschaq >: the land <0776 >erets > whereon thou liest <7901

<2233 zera< >;

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

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

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

<4725 maqowm >; and I knew <3045 yada< > [it] not.

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

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

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

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

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

there <8033 sham > [were] three <7969 shalowsh > flocks <5739

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 > that the cattle <4735 miqneh > should

be gathered <0622 >acaph > together: water <4325 mayim > ye the

sheep <6629 tso>n >, and go <3212 yalak > [and] feed <7462 ra<ah

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

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

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

<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

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

<2600 chinnam >? tell <5046 nagad > me, what <4100 mah > [shall]

thy wages <4909 maskoreth > [be]?

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

<1363 gobahh >: the name <8034 shem > of the elder <1419 gadowl

younger <6996 qatan > [was] Rachel <7354 Rachel >.

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

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

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

<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

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

his name <8034 shem > Reuben <7205 R@>uwben >: for she said

love <0157 >ahab > me.

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

<3588 kiy > the LORD <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 > a son <1121 ben >; and said <0559 >amar >, Now

this time <6471 pa<am > will my husband <0376 >iysh > be joined

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

<3205 yalad > a son <1121 ben >: and she said <0559 >amar >, Now

will I praise <3034 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 >.

Ya<aqob >, Give <3051 yahab > me children <1121 ben >, or else

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

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

handmaid <8198 shiphchah > to wife <0802 >ishshah >: and Jacob

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

8 And Rachel <7354 Rachel > said <0559 >amar >, With great

Zilpah <2153 Zilpah > her maid <8198 shiphchah >, and gave <5414

25. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when <0834 >aher >

Rachel <7354 Rachel > had born <3205 yalad > Joseph <3130

26 Give <5414 nathan > [me] my wives <0802 >ishshah > and my

knowest <3045 yada< > my service <5656 <abodah > which <0834

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

favour <2580 chen > in thine eyes <5869 <ayin >, [tarry: for] I

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath blessed <1288 barak > me for thy

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

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

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

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

32 I will pass <5674 <abar > through all <3605 kol > thy flock

33 So shall my righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > answer <6030

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

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

goats <8495 tayish > that were ringstraked <6124 <aqod > and

spotted <2921 tala> >, and all <3605 kol > the she goats <5795

[and] every <3605 kol > one that had [some] white <3836 laban >

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

Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >: and Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > fed <7462 ra<ah

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 chesnut <6196 <armown > tree; and

pilled <6478 patsal > white <3836 laban > strakes <6479 p@tsalah

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 the gutters <7298 rahat > in the

came <0935 bow> > to drink <8354 shathah >.

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

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

lambs <3775 keseb >, and set <5414 nathan > the faces <6440

he put <7896 shiyth > his own flocks <5739 <eder > by themselves

<0905 bad >, and put <7896 shiyth > them not unto Laban's <3837

Laban > cattle <6629 tso>n >.

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 <3290 Ya<aqob > laid <7760 suwm > the

<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

Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob >.

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

exceedingly <3966 m@<od >, and had <1961 hayah > much <7227 rab

menservants <5650 <ebed >, and camels <1581 gamal >, and asses

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 taken <3947 laqach > away all <3605

kol > that [was] our father's <1>; and of [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 >, Return <7725 shuwb > unto the land <0776 >erets

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< > me.

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

speckled <5348 naqod > shall be thy wages <7939 sakar >; then

all <3605 kol > the cattle <6629 tso>n > bare <3205 yalad >

speckled <5348 naqod >: and if <0518 >im > 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

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 > upon the

cattle <6629 tso>n > [were] ringstraked <6124 <aqod >, speckled

<5348 naqod >, and grisled <1261 barod >.

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 eyes <5869 <ayin >, and see <7200 ra>ah >, all <3605

cattle <6629 tso>n > [are] 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 <6213

<asah > unto thee.

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

where <0834 >aher > thou anointedst <4886 mashach > the pillar

<4676 matstsebah >, [and] where <0834 >aher > thou vowedst <5087

nadar > a vow <5088 neder > unto me: now <6258 <attah > arise

<6965 quwm >, get <3318 yatsa> > thee out from this <2063 zo>th

<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 taken <5337 natsal > from our

father <1>, that [is] ours, and our children's <1121 ben >: now

<6258 <attah > then, whatsoever 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

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

<4735 miqneh >, and all <3605 kol > his goods <7399 r@kuwsh >

which <0834 >aher > he had gotten <7408 rakash >, the cattle

<4735 miqneh > of his getting <7075 qinyan >, which <0834 >aher

to go <0935 bow> > to Isaac <3327 Yitschaq > his father <1> in

the 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 <2022 har > Gilead <1568

Gil<ad >.

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 barach >.

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 the mount <2022 har > Gilead

<1568 Gil<ad >.

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 >, and said <0559 >amar > unto him, Take

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

<3290 Ya<aqob > either good <2896 towb > or <5704 <ad > bad

<7451 ra< >.

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 the mount <2022 har >: and Laban <3837

Laban > with his brethren <0251 >ach > 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 >, as captives

<7617 shabah > [taken] with the sword <2719 chereb >?

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

secretly <2244>, and steal <1589 ganab > away from me; and didst

not tell <5046 nagad > me, that I might have sent <7971 shalach

shiyr >, with tabret <8596 toph >, and with harp <3658 kinnowr >?

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

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 >, because <3588 kiy > thou sore longedst <3700

kacaph > after thy father's <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 >elohiym >, let him not live <2421 chayah >:

before <5048 neged > our 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 >; but he found <4672 matsa> >

[them] not. Then went <3318 yatsa> > he out of 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 > with Laban <3837 Laban >: and Jacob <3290

Ya<aqob > answered <6030 <anah > 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

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 > [it] here <3541

koh > before <5048 neged > my brethren <0251 >ach > and thy

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

betwixt <0996 beyn > us both <8147 sh@nayim >.

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

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

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

<3198 yakach > [thee] yesternight <0570 >emesh >.

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 mah > can I do <6213 <asah > this day <3117 yowm > unto

these my daughters <1363 gobahh >, or <0176 >ow > unto their

children <1121 ben > which <0834 >aher > they have born <3205

yalad >?

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 >, Gather <3950 laqat > stones <68>; and

they took <3947 laqach > stones <68>, and made <6213 <asah > an

heap <1530 gal >: and they did eat <0398 >akal > there <8033

sham > upon the heap <1530 gal >.

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 gal > [is] a witness <5707 <ed > between <0996 beyn >

me and thee this day <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

me and thee, when <3588 kiy > we are absent <5641 cathar > one

50 If <0518 >im > thou shalt afflict <6031 <anah > my daughters

[other] wives <0802 >ishshah > beside <5921 <al > my daughters

<1363 gobahh >, no <3808 lo> > man <0376 >iysh > [is] with us;

see <7200 ra>ah >, God <0430 >elohiym > [is] 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

52 This <2088 zeh > heap <1530 gal > [be] witness <5707 <ed >,

and [this <2088 zeh >] pillar <4676 matstsebah > [be] witness

<5711 <Adah >, that I will not pass <5674 <abar > over <5674

shalt not pass <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > this <2088 zeh >

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

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

<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 > upon the mount <2022 har >, and called <7121

qara> > his brethren <0251 >ach > to eat <0398 >akal > bread

lechem >, and tarried <3885 luwn > all <3885 luwn > night 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

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

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

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 > shall ye speak <0559 >amar > unto my lord <0113

>adown > Esau <6215 <Esav >; Thy servant <5650 <ebed > Jacob

<3290 Ya<aqob > saith <0559 >amar > thus <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 nagad > my lord <0113 >adown

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>

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> > to the one <0259 >echad > company <4264

machaneh >, and smite <5221 nakah > it, then the other company

<4264 machaneh > which is left <7604 sha>ar > shall escape <6413

p@leytah >.

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

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

all <3605 kol > the mercies <2617 checed >, and of all <3605 kol

<6213 <asah > unto thy servant <5650 <ebed >; for with my staff

<4731 maqqel > I passed <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > this

<2088 zeh > Jordan <3383 Yarden >; and now <6258 <attah > I am

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 <Esav >: for I fear <3373 yare> > him, lest

<6435 pen > he will come <0935 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

<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

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

<6242 <esriym > he goats <8495 tayish >, two hundred <3967 me>ah

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

kine <6510 parah >, and ten <6235 <eser > bulls <6499 par >,

twenty <6242 <esriym > she asses <0860 >athown >, and ten <6235

<eser > foals <5895 <ayir >.

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

brother <0251 >ach > meeteth <6298 pagash > thee, and asketh

<7592 sha>al > thee, saying <0559 >amar >, Whose <4310 miy >

and whose <4310 miy > [are] these <0428 >el-leh > before <6440

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 > unto my lord <0113 >adown > Esau

<6215 <Esav >: and, behold <2009 hinneh >, 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

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 sh@nayim > womenservants <8198

shiphchah >, and his eleven sons <3206 yeled >, and passed <5674

<abar > over <5674 <abar > the ford <4569 ma<abar > 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

of Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob > thigh <3409 yarek > was out of joint

<3363 yaqa< >, as he wrestled <79> with him.

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 >amar > no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > Jacob

hast thou power <8280 sarah > with God <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 >amar >, Tell <5046 nagad > [me], I pray <4994 na> >

thee, thy name <8034 shem >. And he said <0559 >amar >,

Wherefore <4100 mah > [is] it [that] thou dost ask <7592 sha>al

there <8033 sham >.

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 > God <0430 >elohiym > face <6440

paniym > to face <6440 paniym >, and my 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

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

<3117 yowm >: because <3588 kiy > he touched <5060 naga< > the

hollow <3709 kaph > of Jacob's <3290 Ya<aqob > thigh <3409 yarek

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

3 And he passed <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > before <6440

<0776 >erets > seven <7651 sheba< > times <6471 pa<am >, until

<5704 <ad > he came <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash > to his

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

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

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 > themselves.

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 > near <5066 nagash > and Rachel

<7354 Rachel >, and they bowed <7812 shachah > themselves.

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

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

have found <4672 matsa> > grace <2580 chen > in thy sight <5869

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

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

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

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

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 >, at the hand <3027 yad > of the

Sh@kem > father <1>, for an hundred <3967 me>ah > pieces of

money <7192 q@siytah >.

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

<4196 mizbeach >, and called <7121 qara> > it Eleloheisrael

<0415 >El >elohey Yisra>el >.

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 > the Hivite <2340 Chivviy >, prince <5387 nasiy>

<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

spake <1696 dabar > kindly unto the damsel <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 > damsel <3207 yaldah > to

wife <0802 >ishshah >.

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 > longeth <2836 chashaq > for your

daughter <1323 bath >: I pray <4994 na> > you give <5414 nathan

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

<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

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

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 <iyr >, saying <0559 >amar >,

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 >ishshah >, and let us give <5414 nathan > them our

daughters <1363 gobahh >.

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

yashab > with us, to be one <0259 >echad > people <5971 <am >,

if <0518 >im > every <3605 kol > male <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 > and every <3605 kol > beast <0929 b@hemah > of

theirs [be] ours? only <0389 >ak > let us consent <0225 >uwth >

unto them, and they will dwell <3427 yashab > with us.

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

that went <3318 yatsa> > out of the gate <8179 sha<ar > of his

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

Dinah's <1783 Diynah > brethren <0251 >ach >, took <3947 laqach

<0935 bow> > upon the city <5892 <iyr > boldly <0983 betach >,

and slew <2026 harag > 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

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 >achowth >.

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] in the city <5892 <iyr >, and

that which <0834 >aher > [was] in the field <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

[being] few <4962 math > in number <4557 micpar >, they shall

gather <0622 >acaph > themselves together against <5921 <al > me,

and slay <5221 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 sham > an altar <4196

mizbeach > unto God <0410 >el >, that appeared <7200 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 > you, and be

clean <2891 taher >, and change <2498 chalaph > your garments

<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

which <0834 >aher > [were] in their hand <3027 yad >, and [all

their ears <0241 >ozen >; and Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > hid <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

pursue <7291 radaph > after <0310 >achar > the sons <1121 ben >

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

<3667 K@na<an >, that [is], Bethel <1008 Beyth->El >, he and all

7 And he built <1129 banah > there <8033 sham > an altar <4196

Elbethel <0416 >El Beyth->El >: because <3588 kiy > there <8033

8 But Deborah <1683 D@bowrah > Rebekah's <7259 Ribqah > nurse

9 And God <0430 >elohiym > appeared <7200 ra>ah > unto Jacob

<3290 Ya<aqob > again <5750 <owd >, when he came <0935 bow> >

out of Padanaram <6307 Paddan >, and blessed <1288 barak > him.

10 And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar > unto him, Thy

name <8034 shem > [is] Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >: thy name <8034

name <8034 shem > Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.

11 And God <0430 >elohiym > said <0559 >amar > unto him, I [am]

God <0410 >el > Almighty <7706 Shadday >: be fruitful <6509

12 And the land <0776 >erets > which <0834 >aher > I gave <5414

give <5414 nathan > it, and to thy seed <2233 zera< > after

<0310 >achar > thee will I give <5414 nathan > the land <0776

13 And God <0430 >elohiym > went <5927 <alah > up from him in

the place <4725 maqowm > where <0834 >aher > he talked <1696

dabar > with him.

14 And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > set <5324 natsab > up a pillar

their father <1> loved <0157 >ahab > him more than all <3605 kol

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

<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

<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 >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, this <1976 hallazeh >

dreamer cometh <0935 bow> >.

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 > hath devoured <0398

>akal > him: and we shall see <7200 ra>ah > what <4100 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 > upon him; that

he might rid <5337 natsal > him out of their hands <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 >, [his] coat <3801

k@thoneth > of [many] colours <6446 pac > that [was] on <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

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

<3899 lechem >: and they lifted <5375 nasa> > up their eyes

<5869 <ayin > and looked <7200 ra>ah >, and, behold <2009 hinneh

<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 >ach >, What <4100 mah > profit <1215 betsa< >

[is it] if <3588 kiy > we slay <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

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

<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

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 > Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > unto Potiphar <6318

Powtiyphar >, an officer <5631 cariyc > of Pharaoh's <6547

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

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

<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

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

<3045 yada< > not that she [was] his daughter <3618 kallah > in

law <3618 kallah >.) And she said <0559 >amar >, What <4100 mah

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 maqowm >, saying <0559 >amar >, Where <0346 >ayeh >

[is] the harlot <6948 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 >amar >, I cannot <3808 lo> > find <4672 matsa> > her;

and also <1571 gam > 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 > [place].

23 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > said <0559 >amar >, Let her take

<3947 laqach > [it] to her, lest <6435 pen > we be shamed <0937

buwz >: behold <2009 hinneh >, I sent <7971 shalach > this <2088

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 >

behold <2009 hinneh >, she [is] with child <2030 hareh > by

whoredom <2183 zanuwn >. And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > said <0559

>amar >, Bring <3318 yatsa> > 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 >amar >, By the man <0376 >iysh >, whose

pathiyl >, and 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 >

<3045 yada< > her again <3254 yacaph > no <3808 lo> > more <5750

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

29 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, as he drew <7725 shuwb >

back <7725 shuwb > his hand <3027 yad >, that, behold <2009

she said <0559 >amar >, How <4100 mah > hast thou broken <6555

30 And afterward <0310 >achar > came <3318 yatsa> > out his

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

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

<6743 tsalach > in his hand <3027 yad >.

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 > he had, save the bread <3899

lechem > which <0834 >aher > he did eat <0398 >akal >. And

Joseph <3130 Yowceph > was [a] goodly [person], and well <3303

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

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

9 [There is] none <0369 >ayin > greater <1419 gadowl > in this

hath he kept <2820 chasak > back <2820 chasak > any <3972

then can I do <6213 <asah > this <2063 zo>th > great <1419

gadowl > wickedness <7451 ra< >, and sin <2398 chata> > against

God <0430 >elohiym >?

10 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, as she spake <1696 dabar

that he hearkened <8085 shama< > not unto her, to lie <7901

11 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass about this <2088 zeh >

time <3117 yowm >, that [Joseph] went <0935 bow> > into the

house <1004 bayith > to do <6213 <asah > his business <4399

<1004 bayith >.

12 And she caught <8610 taphas > him by his garment <0899 beged

<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

her hand <3027 yad >, and was fled <5127 nuwc > forth <2315

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

<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

wife <0802 >ishshah >, which <0834 >aher > she spake <1696 dabar

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 maqowm > where <0834 >aher > the

king's <4428 melek > prisoners <0615 >aciyr > [were] bound <0631

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

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 >aciyr > that [were] in the prison;

and whatsoever they did <6213 <asah > 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

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 >el > the prison, the place <4725

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 >

baker <0644 >aphah > of the king <4428 melek > of Egypt <4714

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 >, they [were] sad <2196 za<aph >.

7 And he asked <7592 sha>al > Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > officers

<5631 cariyc > that [were] with him in the ward <4929 mishmar >

of his lord's <0113 >adown > house <1004 bayith >, saying <0559

sadly <7451 ra< > to day <3117 yowm >?

8 And they said <0559 >amar > unto him, We have dreamed <2492

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 > [was] before <6440

paniym > me;

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 >eshkowl > thereof brought <1310

bashal > forth <1310 bashal > ripe <1310 bashal > grapes <6025

<enab >:

11 And Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > cup <3563 kowc > [was] in my

hand <3027 yad >: and I took <3947 laqach > the grapes <6025

<enab >, and pressed <7818 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

13 Yet <5750 <owd > within three <7969 shalowsh > days <3117

Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > cup <3563 kowc > into his hand <3027

when <0834 >aher > thou wast <1961 hayah > his butler <4945

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

15 For indeed I was stolen <1589 ganab > away out of the land

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

17 And in the uppermost <5945 >elyown > basket <5536 cal >

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

19 Yet <5750 <owd > within three <7969 shalowsh > days <3117

<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 >: and

he lifted <5375 nasa> > up the head <7218 ro>sh > of the chief

baker <0644 >aphah > among <8432 tavek > his servants <5650

<ebed >.

21 And he restored <7725 shuwb > the chief <8269 sar > butler

<4945 mashqeh > unto his butlership <4945 mashqeh > again <7725

shuwb >; and he gave <5414 nathan > the cup <3563 kowc > into

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

Genesis 41

1. And it came <1961 hayah > to pass at the end <7093 qets > of

two full <3117 yowm > years <8141 shaneh >, that Pharaoh <6547

Par<oh > dreamed <2492 chalam >: and, behold <2009 hinneh >, he

stood <5975 <amad > by the river <2975 y@<or >.

2 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, there came <5927 <alah > up out

of the river <2975 y@<or > seven <7651 sheba< > well <3303

yapheh > favoured <4758 mar>eh > kine <6510 parah > and

fatfleshed <1277 bariy> >; and they fed <7462 ra<ah > in a

meadow <0260 >achuw >.

3 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, seven <7651 sheba< > other <0312

favoured <4758 mar>eh > and leanfleshed; 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 parah > did eat <0398 >akal > up the

seven <7651 sheba< > well <3303 yapheh > 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

up upon one <0259 >echad > stalk <7070 qaneh >, rank <1277

6 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, seven <7651 sheba< > thin <1851

east <6921 qadiym > wind sprung <6779 tsamach > up after <0310

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

8 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the morning <1242 boqer

he sent <7971 shalach > and called <7121 qara> > for all <3605

and all <3605 kol > the wise <2450 chakam > men thereof: and

Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > told <5608 caphar > them his dream <2472

chalowm >; but [there was] none <0369 >ayin > that could

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 > my faults <2399 chet> > this day <3117

yowm >:

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

11 And we dreamed <2492 chalam > a dream <2472 chalowm > in one

<0259 >echad > night <3915 layil >, I and he; we dreamed <2492

chalam > each man <0376 >iysh > according to the interpretation

<6623 pithrown > of his dream <2472 chalowm >.

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

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 >, I have dreamed <2492 chalam > a dream <2472

chalowm >, and [there is] none <0369 >ayin > that can interpret

<6622 pathar > it: and I have heard <8085 shama< > say <0559

dream <2472 chalowm > to interpret <6622 pathar > it.

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 >, In my dream <2472 chalowm >, behold <2009

hinneh >, I stood <5975 <amad > upon the bank <8193 saphah > of

the river <2975 y@<or >:

18 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, there came <5927 <alah > up out

of the river <2975 y@<or > seven <7651 sheba< > kine <6510 parah

<8389 to>ar >; and they fed <7462 ra<ah > in a meadow <0260

19 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, seven <7651 sheba< > other <0312

<2007 hennah > as I never <3808 lo> > saw <7200 ra>ah > in all

<3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >

for badness <7455 roa< >:

20 And the lean <7534 raq > and the ill <7451 ra< > favoured

kine <6510 parah > did eat <0398 >akal > up the first <7223

ri>shown > seven <7651 sheba< > fat <1277 bariy> > kine <6510

parah >:

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 hinneh >, seven <7651 sheba< > ears <7641 shibbol >

came <5927 <alah > up in one <0259 >echad > stalk <7070 qaneh >,

full <4392 male> > and good <2896 towb >:

23 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, seven <7651 sheba< > ears <7641

shibbol >, withered <6798 tsanam >, thin <1851 daq >, [and]

blasted <7710 shadaph > with the east <6921 qadiym > wind,

sprung <6779 tsamach > up after <0310 >achar > them:

24 And the thin <1851 daq > ears <7641 shibbol > devoured <1104

bala< > the seven <7651 sheba< > good <2896 towb > ears <7641

shibbol >: and I told <0559 >amar > [this] unto the magicians

<2748 chartom >; but [there was] none <0369 >ayin > that could

declare <5046 nagad > [it] to me.

25 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto Pharaoh

<6547 Par<oh >, The dream <2472 chalowm > of Pharaoh <6547

Par<oh > [is] one <0259 >echad >: God <0430 >elohiym > hath

shewed <5046 nagad > Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > what he [is] about

to do <6213 <asah >.

26 The seven <7651 sheba< > good <2896 towb > kine <6510 parah

<7651 sheba< > good <2896 towb > ears <7641 shibbol > [are]

seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh >: 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 sheba< > empty <7386 reyq > ears

<7641 shibbol > blasted <7710 shadaph > with the east <6921

qadiym > wind shall be seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh >

of famine <7458 ra<ab >.

28 This [is] the thing <1697 dabar > which <0834 >aher > I have

spoken <1696 dabar > unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >: What <0834

>aher > God <0430 >elohiym > [is] about to do <6213 <asah > he

sheweth <7200 ra>ah > unto Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >.

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 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh > of famine <7458 ra<ab

forgotten <7911 shakach > in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt

<4714 Mitsrayim >; and the famine <7458 ra<ab > shall consume

<3615 kalah > the land <0776 >erets >;

31 And the plenty <7647 saba< > shall not be known <3045 yada<

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 thing <1697 dabar > [is] established

<3559 kuwn > by God <0430 >elohiym >, and God <0430 >elohiym >

will shortly <4116 mahar > bring <6213 <asah > it to pass <6213

<asah >.

33. Now <6258 <attah > therefore let Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >

look <7200 ra>ah > out a man <0376 >iysh > discreet <0995 biyn >

and wise <2450 chakam >, and set <7896 shiyth > him over <5921

<al > the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.

34 Let Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > do <6213 <asah > [this], and let

him appoint <6485 paqad > officers <6496 paqiyd > over <5921 <al

part of the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > in

the seven <7651 sheba< > plenteous <7647 saba< > 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 <0935 bow> >, and lay <6651 tsabar > up

corn <1250 bar > under <8478 tachath > the hand <3027 yad > of

Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, and let them keep <8104 shamar > food

<0400 >okel > in the cities <5892 <iyr >.

36 And that food <0400 >okel > shall be for store <6487

piqqadown > to the land <0776 >erets > against the seven <7651

sheba< > years <8141 shaneh > of famine <7458 ra<ab >, which

<0834 >aher > shall be in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714

Mitsrayim >; that the land <0776 >erets > perish <3772 karath >

not through the famine <7458 ra<ab >.

37 And the thing <1697 dabar > was good <3190 yatab > in the

eyes <5869 <ayin > of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, and in the eyes

<5869 <ayin > of all <3605 kol > his servants <5650 <ebed >.

38 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar > unto his

servants <5650 <ebed >, Can we find <4672 matsa> > [such a one]

as this <2088 zeh > [is], a man <0376 >iysh > in whom <0834

39 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph

<3130 Yowceph >, Forasmuch <0310 >achar > as God <0430 >elohiym

40 Thou shalt be over <5921 <al > my house <1004 bayith >, and

according <5921 <al > unto thy word <6310 peh > shall all <3605

41 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph

<3130 Yowceph >, See <7200 ra>ah >, I have set <5414 nathan >

thee over <5921 <al > all <3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets > of

Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.

42 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > took <5493 cuwr > off his ring

<2885 tabba<ath > from his hand <3027 yad >, and put <5414

nathan > it upon Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > hand <3027 yad >, and

arrayed <3847 labash > him in vestures <0899 beged > of fine

linen <8336 shesh >, and put <7760 suwm > a gold <2091 zahab >

chain <7242 rabiyd > about <5921 <al > his neck <6677 tsavva>r >;

43 And he made him to ride <7392 rakab > in the second <4932

mishneh > chariot <4818 merkabah > which <0834 >aher > he had;

and they cried <7121 qara> > before <6440 paniym > him, Bow <86>

Mitsrayim >.

44 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph

<3130 Yowceph >, I [am] Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, and without

<1107 bil<adey > thee shall no <3808 lo> > man <0376 >iysh >

in all <3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714

Mitsrayim >.

45 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > called <7121 qara> > Joseph's

<3130 Yowceph > name <8034 shem > Zaphnathpaaneah; and he gave

<5414 nathan > him to wife <0802 >ishshah > Asenath <0621

Phera< > priest <3548 kohen > of On <0204 >Own >. And Joseph

<3130 Yowceph > went <3318 yatsa> > out over <5921 <al > [all]

the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >.

46. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > [was] thirty <7970 sh@lowshiym >

years <8141 shaneh > old <1121 ben > when he stood <5975 <amad >

before <6440 paniym > Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > king <4428 melek >

of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > went

<6547 Par<oh >, and went <5674 <abar > throughout all <3605 kol

47 And in the seven <7651 sheba< > plenteous <7647 saba< >

years <8141 shaneh > the earth <0776 >erets > brought <6213

<asah > forth <6213 <asah > by handfuls <7062 qomets >.

48 And he gathered <6908 qabats > up all <3605 kol > the food

<0400 >okel > of the seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh >,

which <0834 >aher > were in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt

cabiyb > about every city <5892 <iyr >, laid <5414 nathan > he

up in the same.

49 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > gathered <6651 tsabar > corn

<1250 bar > as the sand <2344 chowl > of the sea <3220 yam >,

very <3966 m@<od > much <7235 rabah >, until <5704 <ad > he left

<2308 chadal > numbering <5608 caphar >; for [it was] without

50 And unto Joseph <3130 Yowceph > were born <3205 yalad > two

<8147 sh@nayim > sons <1121 ben > before <2962 terem > the years

<8141 shaneh > of famine <7458 ra<ab > came <0935 bow> >, which

51 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > called <7121 qara> > the name

M@nashsheh >: For God <0430 >elohiym >, [said he], hath made me

forget <5382 nashah > all <3605 kol > my toil <5999 <amal >, and

all <3605 kol > my father's <1> house <1004 bayith >.

52 And the name <8034 shem > of the second <8145 sheniy >

called <7121 qara> > he Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim >: For God <0430

land <0776 >erets > of my affliction <6040 <oniy >.

53 And the seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh > of

plenteousness <7647 saba< >, that was in the land <0776 >erets >

of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, were ended <3615 kalah >.

54 And the seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh > of dearth

<7458 ra<ab > began <2490 chalal > to come <0935 bow> >,

according as Joseph <3130 Yowceph > had said <0559 >amar >: and

the dearth <7458 ra<ab > was in all <3605 kol > lands <0776

Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > there was bread <3899 lechem >.

55 And when all <3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt

<4714 Mitsrayim > was famished <7456 ra<eb >, the people <5971

<am > cried <6817 tsa<aq > to Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > for bread

56 And the famine <7458 ra<ab > was over <5921 <al > all <3605

Joseph <3130 Yowceph > opened <6605 pathach > all <3605 kol >

Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim >; and the famine <7458 ra<ab > waxed

sore <2388 chazaq > in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714

57 And all <3605 kol > countries <0776 >erets > came <0935 bow>

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 >amar > unto his sons <1121 ben >, Why

2 And he said <0559 >amar >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, I have

heard <8085 shama< > that there is corn <7668 sheber > in Egypt

<4714 Mitsrayim >: get <3381 yarad > you down <3381 yarad >

thither <8033 sham >, and buy <7666 shabar > for us from thence

<8033 sham >; that we may live <2421 chayah >, and not die <4191

3 And Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > ten <6235 <eser > brethren <0251

4 But Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn >, Joseph's <3130 Yowceph >

brother <0251 >ach >, Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > sent <7971 shalach >

not with his brethren <0251 >ach >; for he said <0559 >amar >,

Lest <6435 pen > peradventure mischief <0611 >acown > befall

<7122 qara> > him.

5 And the sons <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > came

those that came <0935 bow> >: for the famine <7458 ra<ab > was

6 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > [was] the governor <7989 shalliyt

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

Whence <0370 >aiyn > come <0935 bow> > ye? And they said <0559

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

10 And they said <0559 >amar > unto him, Nay <3808 lo> >, my

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 >iysh > in the land <0776 >erets > of

Canaan <3667 K@na<an >; and, behold <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

15 Hereby <2063 zo>th > ye shall be proved <0974 bachan >: By

the life <2416 chay > of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > ye shall not go

<3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > hence <2088 zeh >, except

your youngest <6996 qatan > brother <0251 >ach > come <0935 bow>

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 > ward <4929 mishmar > three <7969 shalowsh >

days <3117 yowm >.

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 <2421 chayah >; [for] I fear <3373 yare>

19 If <0518 >im > ye [be] true <3651 ken > [men], let one <0259

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 >, We [are] verily <61> guilty <0816 >asham >

concerning <5921 <al > our 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 tsarah > come <0935 bow> > upon us.

22 And Reuben <7205 R@>uwben > answered <6030 <anah > them,

saying <0559 >amar >, Spake <0559 >amar > I not unto you, saying

<0559 >amar >, Do not sin <2398 chata> > against the child <3206

yeled >; and ye would not hear <8085 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 returned <7725 shuwb > to them again

<7725 shuwb >, and communed <1696 dabar > with them, and took

<3947 laqach > from them Simeon <8095 Shim<own >, and bound

<0631 >acar > him before their eyes <5869 <ayin >.

25 Then Joseph <3130 Yowceph > commanded <6680 tsavah > to fill

<4390 male> > their sacks <3672 Kinn@rowth > with corn <1250 bar

<3701 keceph > into <0413 >el > his sack <8242 saq >, and to

give <5414 nathan > them provision <6720 tseydah > 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 saq > to give <5414 nathan > his ass <2543 chamowr >

provender <4554 micpow> > in the inn <4411 malown >, he espied

<7200 ra>ah > his money <3701 keceph >; for, behold <2009 hinneh

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 >iysh > to

another <0250 >Ezrachiy >, What <4100 mah > [is] this <2063

zo>th > [that] God <0430 >elohiym > hath done <6213 <asah > unto

us?

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

qarah > unto them; saying <0559 >amar >,

30 The man <0376 >iysh >, [who is] the lord <0113 >adown > of

the land <0776 >erets >, spake <1696 dabar > roughly <7186

qasheh > to us, and took <5414 nathan > us for spies <7270 ragal

31 And we said <0559 >amar > unto him, We [are] true <3651 ken

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 >erets >, said <0559 >amar > unto us, Hereby <2063

zo>th > shall I know <3045 yada< > that ye [are] true <3651 ken

brethren <0251 >ach > [here] with me, and take <3947 laqach >

[food for] the famine <7459 r@abown > of your households <1004

bayith >, 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 <7270 ragal >, but [that] ye [are]

true <3651 ken > [men: so] will I deliver <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

man's <0376 >iysh > bundle <6872 ts@rowr > of money <3701 keceph

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

Joseph <3130 Yowceph > [is] not, and Simeon <8095 Shim<own >

[is] not, and ye will take <3947 laqach > Benjamin <1144

Binyamiyn > [away]: all <3605 kol > these things are against

<5921 <al > me.

37 And Reuben <7205 R@>uwben > spake <0559 >amar > unto his

father <1>, saying <0559 >amar >, Slay <4191 muwth > my two

<3027 yad >, and I will bring <7725 shuwb > him to 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

to the grave <7585 sh@>owl >.

Genesis 43

1. And the famine <7458 ra<ab > [was] sore <3515 kabed > in the

land <0776 >erets >.

2 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when <0834 >aher > they

had eaten <0398 >akal > up the corn <7668 sheber > which <0834

Mitsrayim >, their father <1> said <0559 >amar > unto them, Go

little <4592 m@<at > food <0400 >okel >.

3 And Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > spake <0559 >amar > unto him,

saying <0559 >amar >, The man <0376 >iysh > did solemnly <5749

<uwd > protest <5749 <uwd > unto us, saying <0559 >amar >, Ye

shall not see <7200 ra>ah > my face <6440 paniym >, except <1115

biltiy > your brother <0251 >ach > [be] with you.

4 If <0518 >im > thou wilt send <7971 shalach > our brother

<0251 >ach > with us, we will go <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad

5 But if <0518 >im > thou wilt not send <7971 shalach > [him],

we will not go <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad >: for the man

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 <0376 >iysh > whether <5750 <owd > ye

had yet <5750 <owd > a brother <0251 >ach >?

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 >amar >, [Is] your father <1>

yet alive <2416 chay >? have <3426 yesh > ye [another] brother

<0251 >ach >? and we told <5046 nagad > him according <5921 <al

<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 will arise <6965 quwm > and go

9 I will be surety <6148 <arab > for him; of my hand <3027 yad

before <6440 paniym > thee, then let me bear <2398 chata> > the

blame <2398 chata> > for ever:

10 For except <3884 luwle> > we had lingered <4102 mahahh >,

surely <3588 kiy > now <6258 <attah > we had returned <7725

shuwb > this <2088 zeh > second time <6471 pa<am >.

11. And their father <1> Israel <3478 Yisra>el > said <0559

now <0645 >ephow >, do <6213 <asah > this <2063 zo>th >; take

12 And take <3947 laqach > double <4932 mishneh > money <3701

peradventure <0194 >uwlay > it [was] an oversight <4870 mishgeh

13 Take <3947 laqach > also your brother <0251 >ach >, and

arise <6965 quwm >, go <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > unto

14 And God <0410 >el > Almighty <7706 Shadday > give <5414

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 keceph > in their hand <3027 yad >,

and Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn >; and rose <6965 quwm > up, and

and stood <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym > Joseph <3130

16 And when <3588 kiy > Joseph <3130 Yowceph > saw <7200 ra>ah

the ruler of his house <1004 bayith >, Bring <0935 bow> >

Tebach >, and make ready <3559 kuwn >; for [these] men <0582

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 <0582 >enowsh > into Joseph's <3130 Yowceph

18 And the men <0582 >enowsh > were afraid <3372 yare> >,

because <3588 kiy > they were brought <0935 bow> > into Joseph's

<3130 Yowceph > house <1004 bayith >; and they said <0559 >amar

take <3947 laqach > us for bondmen <5650 <ebed >, and our asses

<2543 chamowr >.

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 > with him at the door <6607 pethach >

of the house <1004 bayith >,

20 And said <0559 >amar >, O sir <0113 >adown >, we came <3381

21 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass, when <3588 kiy > we came

brought <7725 shuwb > it again <7725 shuwb > in our hand <3027

22 And other <0312 >acher > money <3701 keceph > have we

23 And he said <0559 >amar >, Peace <7965 shalowm > [be] to you,

fear <3372 yare> > not: your God <0430 >elohiym >, and the God

<0430 >elohiym > of your father <1>, hath given <5414 nathan >

you treasure <4301 matmown > in your sacks <0572 >amtachath >: I

had <0935 bow> > your money <3701 keceph >. And he brought <3318

yatsa> > Simeon <8095 Shim<own > out unto them.

24 And the man <0376 >iysh > brought <0935 bow> > the men <0582

and gave <5414 nathan > [them] water <4325 mayim >, and they

washed <7364 rachats > their feet <7272 regel >; and he gave

25 And they made ready <3559 kuwn > the present <4503 minchah >

against <5704 <ad > Joseph <3130 Yowceph > came <0935 bow> > at

noon <6672 tsohar >: for they heard <8085 shama< > that they

26. And when Joseph <3130 Yowceph > came <0935 bow> > home

minchah > which <0834 >aher > [was] in their hand <3027 yad >

into the house <1004 bayith >, and bowed <7812 shachah >

themselves to him to the earth <0776 >erets >.

27 And he asked <7592 sha>al > them of [their] welfare <7965

shalowm >, and said <0559 >amar >, [Is] your father <1> well

28 And they answered <0559 >amar >, Thy servant <5650 <ebed >

our father <1> [is] in good <7965 shalowm > health <7965 shalowm

<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

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

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

<8539 tamahh > one <0376 >iysh > at <0413 >el > another <7453

34 And he took <5375 nasa> > [and sent <7971 shalach >] messes

<4864 mas>eth > unto them from before <6440 paniym > him: but

Benjamin's <1144 Binyamiyn > mess <4864 mas>eth > was five <2568

chamesh > times <3027 yad > so much <7235 rabah > as any of

theirs. And they drank <8354 shathah >, and were merry <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>

<0400 >okel >, as much <0834 >aher > as they can <3201 yakol >

carry <5375 nasa> >, and put <7760 suwm > every man's <0376

mouth <6310 peh >.

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 >amar > unto his steward <5921 <al >,

Up, follow <7291 radaph > after <0310 >achar > the men <0582

<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 > drinketh <8354 shathah >, and whereby indeed he

divineth <5172 nachash >? 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

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

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

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

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

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> > to Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > house <1004 bayith

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

what <4100 mah > shall we speak <1696 dabar >? or how <4100 mah

hath found <4672 matsa> > out the iniquity <5771 <avon > of thy

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

lord's <0113 >adown > ears <0241 >ozen >, and let not thine

anger <0639 >aph > burn <2734 charah > against thy servant <5650

<ebed >: for thou [art] even as Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >.

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 > a father <1>, an old <2208 zaqun > man <0376

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

21 And thou saidst <0559 >amar > unto thy servants <5650 <ebed

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

<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 >, [and] buy <7666 shabar > us a little <4592

m@<at > food <0400 >okel >.

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

27 And thy servant <5650 <ebed > my father <1> said <0559 >amar

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 > from me, and mischief <0611 >acown > befall

<7136 qarah > him, ye shall bring <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad

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> > the blame <2398

chata> > to my father <1> for ever.

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<

Genesis 45

1. Then Joseph <3130 Yowceph > could <3201 yakol > not refrain

<0662 >aphaq > himself before all <3605 kol > them that stood

<5324 natsab > by him; and he cried <7121 qara> >, Cause every

And there stood <5975 <amad > no <3808 lo> > man <0376 >iysh >

with him, while Joseph <3130 Yowceph > made himself known <3045

yada< > unto his brethren <0251 >ach >.

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 >, I [am] Joseph <3130 Yowceph >; doth my

father <1> yet <5750 <owd > live <2416 chay >? And his brethren

<0251 >ach > could <3201 yakol > not answer <6030 <anah > him;

for they were troubled <0926 bahal > at his presence <6440

paniym >.

4 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto his

brethren <0251 >ach >, Come <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash >

to me, I pray <4994 na> > you. And they came <5066 nagash > near

Yowceph > your brother <0251 >ach >, whom <0834 >aher > ye sold

5 Now <6258 <attah > therefore be not grieved <6087 <atsab >,

6 For these <2088 zeh > two years <8141 shaneh > [hath] the

<5750 <owd > [there are] five <2568 chamesh > years <8141 shaneh

7 And God <0430 >elohiym > sent <7971 shalach > me before <6440

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 <1> to Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, and lord

9 Haste <4116 mahar > ye, and go <5927 <alah > up to my father

11 And there <8033 sham > will I nourish <3557 kuwl > thee; for

household <1004 bayith >, and all <3605 kol > that thou hast,

come to poverty <3423 yarash >.

12 And, behold <2009 hinneh >, your eyes <5869 <ayin > see

13 And ye shall tell <5046 nagad > my father <1> of all <3605

all <3605 kol > that ye have seen <7200 ra>ah >; and ye shall

haste <4116 mahar > and bring <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad >

my father hither.

14 And he fell <5307 naphal > upon his brother <0251 >ach >

Benjamin's <1144 Binyamiyn > neck <6677 tsavva>r >, and wept

<1058 bakah >; and Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn > wept <1058 bakah >

upon his neck <6677 tsavva>r >.

15 Moreover he kissed <5401 nashaq > all <3605 kol > his

brethren <0251 >ach >, and wept <1058 bakah > upon them: and

after <0310 >achar > that his brethren <0251 >ach > talked <1696

16. And the fame <6963 qowl > thereof was heard <8085 shama< >

in Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh > house <1004 bayith >, saying <0559

his servants <5650 <ebed >.

17 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph

19 Now thou art commanded <6680 tsavah >, this <2063 zo>th > do

21 And the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > did

gave <5414 nathan > them provision <6720 tseydah > for the way

22 To all <3605 kol > of them he gave <5414 nathan > each man

23 And to his father <1> he sent <7971 shalach > after this

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

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 > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > even to the

[other] end <7097 qatseh > thereof.

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 >akal > their portion <2706

choq > which <0834 >aher > Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > 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 >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, I have bought <7069

qanah > you this day <3117 yowm > and your land <0127 >adamah >

for Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >: lo <1883 dethe> >, [here is] seed

<2233 zera< > for you, and ye shall sow <2232 zara< > the land

<0127 >adamah >.

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 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, in the country

<0776 >erets > of Goshen <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<

<3290 Ya<aqob > was an hundred <3967 me>ah > forty <0705

>arba<iym > and seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh >.

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 ben > Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, and

said <0559 >amar > unto him, If <0518 >im > now <4994 na> > I

have found <4672 matsa> > grace <2580 chen > in thy sight <5869

<ayin >, put <7760 suwm >, I pray <4994 na> > thee, thy hand

<3027 yad > under <8478 tachath > my thigh <3409 yarek >, and

deal <6213 <asah > kindly <2617 checed > and truly <0571 >emeth

in Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >:

30 But I will lie <7901 shakab > with my fathers <1>, and thou

shalt carry <5375 nasa> > me out of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, and

bury <6912 qabar > me in 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 >el-leh > things <1697 dabar >, that [one] told <0559

>amar > Joseph <3130 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 >, Manasseh

<4519 M@nashsheh > and Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim >.

2 And [one] told <5046 nagad > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, and said

<0559 >amar >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, thy son <1121 ben > Joseph

<3130 Yowceph > cometh <0935 bow> > unto thee: and Israel <3478

Yisra>el > strengthened <2388 chazaq > himself, and sat <3427

yashab > upon the bed <4296 mittah >.

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 <2233 zera< >

after <0310 >achar > thee [for] an everlasting <5769 <owlam >

possession <0272 >achuzzah >.

5 And now <6258 <attah > thy two <8147 sh@nayim > sons <1121

ben >, Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim > and Manasseh <4519 M@nashsheh >,

which were born <3205 yalad > unto thee in the land <0776

>erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > before <5704 <ad > I came

<0935 bow> > unto thee into Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, [are] mine;

as Reuben <7205 R@>uwben > and Simeon <8095 Shim<own >, they

shall be mine.

6 And thy issue <4138 mowledeth >, which <0834 >aher > thou

begettest <3205 yalad > after <0310 >achar > them, shall be

thine, [and] shall be called <7121 qara> > after <5921 <al > the

name <8034 shem > of their brethren <0251 >ach > in their

inheritance <5159 nachalah >.

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> >

unto Ephrath <0672 >Ephraath >: and I buried <6912 qabar > her

there <8033 sham > in the way <1870 derek > of Ephrath <0672

>Ephraath >; the same <1931 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 >el-leh >?

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

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

11 And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph

<3130 Yowceph >, I had not thought <6419 palal > to see <7200

ra>ah > thy face <6440 paniym >: and, lo <2009 hinneh >, God

<0430 >elohiym > hath shewed <7200 ra>ah > me 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 >, Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim > in his right <3225

yamiyn > hand <3225 yamiyn > toward Israel's <3478 Yisra>el >

left <8040 s@mo>wl > hand <8040 s@mo>wl >, and Manasseh <4519

M@nashsheh > in his left <8040 s@mo>wl > hand <8040 s@mo>wl >

toward Israel's <3478 Yisra>el > right <3225 yamiyn > hand <3225

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

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 >

wittingly <7919 sakal >; for Manasseh <4519 M@nashsheh > [was]

the firstborn <1060 b@kowr >.

15 And he blessed <1288 barak > Joseph <3130 Yowceph >, and

said <0559 >amar >, God <0430 >elohiym >, before <6440 paniym >

whom <0834 >aher > my fathers <1> Abraham <85> and Isaac <3327

Yitschaq > did walk <1980 halak >, the God <0430 >elohiym >

which fed <7462 ra<ah > me all my life long <5750 <owd > unto

this day <3117 yowm >,

16 The Angel <4397 mal>ak > which redeemed <1350 ga>al > me

from all <3605 kol > evil <7451 ra< >, bless <1288 barak > the

lads <5288 na<ar >; and let my name <8034 shem > be named <7121

qara> > on them, and the name <8034 shem > of my fathers <1>

Abraham <85> and Isaac <3327 Yitschaq >; and let them 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 <3045 yada< > [it], my son <1121 ben >, I know

<3045 yada< > [it]: he also <1571 gam > shall become <1961 hayah

and his seed <2233 zera< > shall become <1961 hayah > a

multitude <4393 m@lo> > of nations <1471 gowy >.

20 And he blessed <1288 barak > them that day <3117 yowm >,

saying <0559 >amar >, In thee shall Israel <3478 Yisra>el >

bless <1288 barak >, saying <0559 >amar >, God <0430 >elohiym >

make <6213 <asah > thee as Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim > and as

Manasseh <4519 M@nashsheh >: and he set <7760 suwm > Ephraim

<0669 >Ephrayim > before <6440 paniym > Manasseh <4519

M@nashsheh >.

21 And Israel <3478 Yisra>el > said <0559 >amar > unto Joseph

<3130 Yowceph >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, I die <4191 muwth >: but

God <0430 >elohiym > shall be with you, and bring <7725 shuwb >

you again <7725 shuwb > unto the land <0776 >erets > of your

fathers <1>.

22 Moreover I have given <5414 nathan > to thee one <0259

<0251 >ach >, which <0834 >aher > I took <3947 laqach > out of

the hand <3027 yad > of the Amorite <0567 >Emoriy > with my

sword <2719 chereb > and with my bow <7198 qesheth >.

Genesis 49

1. And Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > called <7121 qara> > unto his sons

<1121 ben >, and said <0559 >amar >, Gather <0622 >acaph >

2 Gather <6908 qabats > yourselves together, and hear <8085

4 Unstable <6349 pachaz > as water <4325 mayim >, thou shalt

5. Simeon <8095 Shim<own > and Levi <3878 Leviy > [are]

brethren <0251 >ach >; instruments <3627 k@liy > of cruelty

<0376 >iysh >, and in their selfwill <7522 ratsown > they digged

<6131 <aqar > down <6131 <aqar > a wall <7794 showr >.

7 Cursed <0779 >arar > [be] their anger <0639 >aph >, for [it

was] fierce <5794 <az >; and their wrath <5678 <ebrah >, for it

was cruel <7185 qashah >: I will divide <2505 chalaq > them in

Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, and scatter <6327 puwts > them in Israel

8. Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, thou [art he] whom thy brethren

10 The sceptre <7626 shebet > shall not depart <5493 cuwr >

16 Dan <1835 Dan > shall judge <1777 diyn > his people <5971

Genesis 50

1. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > fell <5307 naphal > upon his

father's <1> face <6440 paniym >, and wept <1058 bakah > upon

him, and kissed <5401 nashaq > him.

2 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > commanded <6680 tsavah > his

servants <5650 <ebed > the physicians <7495 rapha> > to embalm

<2590 chanat > his father <1>: and the physicians <7495 rapha> >

embalmed <2590 chanat > Israel <3478 Yisra>el >.

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 > of those which are embalmed <2590

chanat >: and the Egyptians <4714 Mitsrayim > mourned <1058

bakah > for him threescore <7657 shib<iym. > and ten days <3117

yowm >.

4 And when the days <3117 yowm > of his mourning <1086 balah >

were past <5674 <abar >, Joseph <3130 Yowceph > spake <1696

dabar > unto the house <1004 bayith > of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >,

saying <0559 >amar >, If <0518 >im > now <4994 na> > I have

<0241 >ozen > of Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh >, saying <0559 >amar >,

5 My father <1> made me swear <7650 shaba< >, saying <0559

for me in the land <0776 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >,

there <8033 sham > shalt thou bury <6912 qabar > me. Now <6258

<attah > therefore let me go <5927 <alah > up, I pray <4994 na>

<7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb >.

6 And Pharaoh <6547 Par<oh > said <0559 >amar >, Go <5927 <alah

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 land <0776

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 >

Goshen <1657 Goshen >.

9 And there went <5927 <alah > up with him both <1571 gam >

chariots <7393 rekeb > and horsemen <6571 parash >: and it was a

very <3966 m@<od > great <3515 kabed > company <4264 machaneh >.

10 And they came <0935 bow> > to the threshingfloor <1637 goren

mourned <5594 caphad > with a great <1419 gadowl > and very

he made <6213 <asah > a mourning <60> for his father <1> seven

<7651 sheba< > days <3117 yowm >.

11 And when the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of the land <0776

the mourning <60> in the floor <1637 goren > of Atad <0329 >atad

<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 >erets > of Canaan <3667 K@na<an >, and buried <6912

qabar > him in the cave <4631 m@<arah > of the field <7704 sadeh

Ephron <6085 <Ephrown > the Hittite <2850 Chittiy >, before

Mamre <4471 Mamre> >.

14 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > returned <7725 shuwb > into Egypt

<4714 Mitsrayim >, he, and his brethren <0251 >ach >, and all

<3605 kol > that went <5927 <alah > up with him to bury <6912

qabar > his father <1>, after <0310 >achar > he had buried <6912

qabar > his father <1>.

15. And when Joseph's <3130 Yowceph > brethren <0251 >ach > saw

<7200 ra>ah > that their father <1> was dead <4191 muwth >, they

said <0559 >amar >, Joseph <3130 Yowceph > will peradventure

<7725 shuwb > us all <3605 kol > the evil <7451 ra< > which

<0834 >aher > we did <1580 gamal > unto him.

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 trespass <6588 pesha< > of thy brethren <0251

gamal > unto thee evil <7451 ra< >: and now <4994 na> >, we pray

<4994 na> > thee, forgive <5375 nasa> > the trespass <6588

pesha< > of the servants <5650 <ebed > of the God <0430 >elohiym

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 >amar >, Behold <2009 hinneh >, we

[be] thy servants <5650 <ebed >.

19 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto them,

Fear <3372 yare> > not: for [am] I in the place of God <0430

20 But as for you, ye thought <2803 chashab > evil <7451 ra< >

against <5921 <al > me; [but] God <0430 >elohiym > meant <2803

chashab > it unto good <2896 towb >, to bring <6213 <asah > to

pass <6213 <asah >, as [it is] this <2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm >,

to save <2421 chayah > much <7227 rab > people <5971 <am >

alive <2421 chayah >.

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 nacham > them, and spake <1696 dabar >

kindly unto them.

22. And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > dwelt <3427 yashab > in Egypt

<4714 Mitsrayim >, he, and his father's <1> house <1004 bayith >:

and Joseph <3130 Yowceph > lived <2421 chayah > an hundred

23 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > saw <7200 ra>ah > Ephraim's <0669

[generation]: the children <1121 ben > also <1571 gam > of

Machir <4353 Makiyr > the son <1121 ben > of Manasseh <4519

M@nashsheh > were brought <3205 yalad > up upon Joseph's <3130

Yowceph > knees <1290 berek >.

24 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > said <0559 >amar > unto his

brethren <0251 >ach >, I die <4191 muwth >: and God <0430

the land <0776 >erets > which <0834 >aher > he sware <7650

shaba< > to Abraham <85>, to Isaac <3327 Yitschaq >, and to

Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >.

25 And Joseph <3130 Yowceph > took an oath <7650 shaba< > of

the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >, saying

<0559 >amar >, God <0430 >elohiym > will surely visit <6485

paqad > you, and ye shall carry <5927 <alah > up my bones <6106

26 So Joseph <3130 Yowceph > died <4191 muwth >, [being] an
