Genesis 1


  • 1. In the beginning <07225> God <0430> created <01254> the heaven <08064> and the earth <0776>.
  • 2 And the earth <0776> was without <08414> form <08414>, and void <0922>; and darkness <02822> [was] upon the face <06440> of the deep <08415>. And the Spirit <07307> of God <0430> moved <07363> upon the face <06440> of the waters <04325>.
  • 3. And God <0430> said <0559>, Let there be light <0216>: and there was light <0216>.
  • 4 And God <0430> saw <07200> the light <0216>, that [it was] good <02896>: and God <0430> divided <0914> the light <0216> from the darkness <02822>.
  • 5 And God <0430> called <07121> the light <0216> Day <03117>, and the darkness <02822> he called <07121> Night <03915>. And the evening <06153> and the morning <01242> were the first <0259> day <03117>.
  • 6. And God <0430> said <0559>, Let there be a firmament <07549> in the midst <08432> of the waters <04325>, and let it divide <0914> the waters <04325> from the waters <04325>.
  • 7 And God <0430> made <06213> the firmament <07549>, and divided <0914> the waters <04325> which <0834> [were] under <08478> the firmament <07549> from the waters <04325> which <0834> [were] above <05921> the firmament <07549>: and it was so <03651>.
  • 8 And God <0430> called <07121> the firmament <07549> Heaven <08064>. And the evening <06153> and the morning <01242> were the second <08145> day <03117>.
  • 9. And God <0430> said <0559>, Let the waters <04325> under <08478> the heaven <08064> be gathered <06960> together unto one <0259> place <04725>, and let the dry <03004> [land] appear <07200>: and it was so <03651>.
  • 10 And God <0430> called <07121> the dry <03004> [land] Earth <0776>; and the gathering <04723> together of the waters <04325> called <07121> he Seas <03220>: and God <0430> saw <07200> that [it was] good <02896>.
  • 11 And God <0430> said <0559>, Let the earth <0776> bring <01876> forth <01876> grass <01877>, the herb <06212> yielding <02232> seed <02233>, [and] the fruit <06529> tree <06086> yielding <06213> fruit <06529> after his kind <04327>, whose <0834> seed <02233> [is] in itself, upon the earth <0776>: and it was so <03651>.
  • 12 And the earth <0776> brought <03318> forth <03318> grass <01877>, [and] herb <06212> yielding <02232> seed <02233> after his kind <04327>, and the tree <06086> yielding <06213> fruit <06529>, whose <0834> seed <02233> [was] in itself, after his kind <04327>: and God <0430> saw <07200> that [it was] good <02896>.
  • 13 And the evening <06153> and the morning <01242> were the third <07992> day <03117>.
  • 14. And God <0430> said <0559>, Let there be lights <03974> in the firmament <07549> of the heaven <08064> to divide <0914> the day <03117> from the night <03915>; and let them be for signs <0226>, and for seasons <04150>, and for days <03117>, and years <08141>:
  • 15 And let them be for lights <03974> in the firmament <07549> of the heaven <08064> to give light <0216> upon the earth <0776>: and it was so <03651>.
  • 16 And God <0430> made <06213> two <08147> great <01419> lights <03974>; the greater <01419> light <03974> to rule <04475> the day <03117>, and the lesser <06996> light <03974> to rule <04475> the night <03915>: [he made] the stars <03556> also.
  • 17 And God <0430> set <05414> them in the firmament <07549> of the heaven <08064> to give light <0216> upon the earth <0776>,
  • 18 And to rule <04910> over the day <03117> and over the night <03915>, and to divide <0914> the light <0216> from the darkness <02822>: and God <0430> saw <07200> that [it was] good <02896>.
  • 19 And the evening <06153> and the morning <01242> were the fourth <07243> day <03117>.
  • 20. And God <0430> said <0559>, Let the waters <04325> bring <08317> forth <08317> abundantly <08317> the moving <08318> creature <08318> that hath life <02416>, and fowl <05775> [that] may fly <05774> above <05921> the earth <0776> in the open <06440> firmament <07549> of heaven <08064>.
  • 21 And God <0430> created <01254> great <01419> whales <08577>, and every <03605> living <02416> creature <05315> that moveth <07430>, which <0834> the waters <04325> brought <08317> forth <08317> abundantly <08317>, after their kind <04327>, and every <03605> winged <03671> fowl <05775> after his kind <04327>: and God <0430> saw <07200> that [it was] good <02896>.
  • 22 And God <0430> blessed <01288> them, saying <0559>, Be fruitful <06509>, and multiply <07235>, and fill <04390> the waters <04325> in the seas <03220>, and let fowl <05775> multiply <07235> in the earth <0776>.
  • 23 And the evening <06153> and the morning <01242> were the fifth <02549> day <03117>.
  • 24. And God <0430> said <0559>, Let the earth <0776> bring <03318> forth <03318> the living <02416> creature <05315> after his kind <04327>, cattle <0929>, and creeping <07431> thing, and beast <02416> of the earth <0776> after his kind <04327>: and it was so <03651>.
  • 25 And God <0430> made <06213> the beast <02416> of the earth <0776> after his kind <04327>, and cattle <0929> after their kind <04327>, and every <03605> thing that creepeth <07431> upon the earth <0127> after his kind <04327>: and God <0430> saw <07200> that [it was] good <02896>.
  • 26. And God <0430> said <0559>, Let us make <06213> man <0120> in our image <06754>, after our likeness <01823>: and let them have dominion <07287> over the fish <01710> of the sea <03220>, and over the fowl <05775> of the air <08064>, and over the cattle <0929>, and over all <03605> the earth <0776>, and over every <03605> creeping <07431> thing that creepeth <07430> upon the earth <0776>.
  • 27 So God <0430> created <01254> man <0120> in his [own] image <06754>, in the image <06754> of God <0430> created <01254> he him; male <02145> and female <05347> created <01254> he them.
  • 28 And God <0430> blessed <01288> them, and God <0430> said <0559> unto them, Be fruitful <06509>, and multiply <07235>, and replenish <04390> the earth <0776>, and subdue <03533> it: and have dominion <07287> over the fish <01710> of the sea <03220>, and over the fowl <05775> of the air <08064>, and over every <03605> living <02416> thing that moveth <07430> upon the earth <0776>.
  • 29. And God <0430> said <0559>, Behold <02009>, I have given <05414> you every <03605> herb <06212> bearing <02232> seed <02233>, which <0834> [is] upon the face <06440> of all <03605> the earth <0776>, and every <03605> tree <06086>, in the which <0834> [is] the fruit <06529> of a tree <06086> yielding <02232> seed <02233>; to you it shall be for meat <0402>.
  • 30 And to every <03605> beast <02416> of the earth <0776>, and to every <03605> fowl <05775> of the air <08064>, and to every <03605> thing that creepeth <07430> upon the earth <0776>, wherein <0834> [there is] life <02416>, [I have given] every <03605> green <03418> herb <06212> for meat <0402>: and it was so <03651>.
  • 31. And God <0430> saw <07200> every <03605> thing that he had made <06213>, and, behold <02009>, [it was] very <03966> good <02896>. And the evening <06153> and the morning <01242> were the sixth <08345> day <03117>.
  • Genesis 2
  • 1. Thus the heavens <08064> and the earth <0776> were finished <03615>, and all <03605> the host <06635> of them.
  • 2 And on the seventh <07637> day <03117> God <0430> ended <03615> his work <04399> which <0834> he had made <06213>; and he rested <07673> on the seventh <07637> day <03117> from all <03605> his work <04399> which <0834> he had made <06213>.
  • 3 And God <0430> blessed <01288> the seventh <07637> day <03117>, and sanctified <06942> it: because <03588> that in it he had rested <07673> from all <03605> his work <04399> which <0834> God <0430> created <01254> and made <06213>.
  • 4. These <0428> [are] the generations <08435> of the heavens <08064> and of the earth <0776> when they were created <01254>, in the day <03117> that the LORD <03068> God <0430> made <06213> the earth <0776> and the heavens <08064>,
  • 5 And every <03605> plant <07880> of the field <07704> before <02962> it was in the earth <0776>, and every <03605> herb <06212> of the field <07704> before <02962> it grew <06779>: for the LORD <03068> God <0430> had not caused it to rain <04305> upon the earth <0776>, and [there was] not a man <0120> to till <05647> the ground <0127>.
  • 6 But there went <05927> up a mist <0108> from the earth <0776>, and watered <08248> the whole face <06440> of the ground <0127>.
  • 7 And the LORD <03068> God <0430> formed <03335> man <0120> [of] the dust <06083> of the ground <0127>, and breathed <05301> into his nostrils <0639> the breath <05397> of life <02416>; and man <0120> became <01961> a living <02416> soul <05315>.
  • 8. And the LORD <03068> God <0430> planted <05193> a garden <01588> eastward <06924> in Eden <05731>; and there <08033> he put <07760> the man <0120> whom <0834> he had formed <03335>.
  • 9 And out of the ground <0127> made the LORD <03068> God <0430> to grow <06779> every <03605> tree <06086> that is pleasant <02530> to the sight <04758>, and good <02896> for food <03978>; the tree <06086> of life <02416> also in the midst <08432> of the garden <01588>, and the tree <06086> of knowledge <01847> of good <02896> and evil <07451>.
  • 10 And a river <05104> went <03318> out of Eden <05731> to water <08248> the garden <01588>; and from thence <08033> it was parted <06504>, and became <01961> into four <0702> heads <07218>.
  • 11 The name <08034> of the first <0259> [is] Pison <06376>: that [is] it which compasseth <05437> the whole land <0776> of Havilah <02341>, where [there is] gold <02091>;
  • 12 And the gold <02091> of that land <0776> [is] good <02896>: there <08033> [is] bdellium <0916> and the onyx <07718> stone <068>.
  • 13 And the name <08034> of the second <08145> river <05104> [is] Gihon <01521>: the same <01931> [is] it that compasseth <05437> the whole land <0776> of Ethiopia <03568>.
  • 14 And the name <08034> of the third <07992> river <05104> [is] Hiddekel <02313>: that [is] it which goeth <01980> toward the east <06926> of Assyria <0804>. And the fourth <07243> river <05104> [is] Euphrates <06578>.
  • 15 And the LORD <03068> God <0430> took <03947> the man <0120>, and put <03240> him into the garden <01588> of Eden <05731> to dress <05647> it and to keep <08104> it.
  • 16. And the LORD <03068> God <0430> commanded <06680> the man <0120>, saying <0559>, Of every <03605> tree <06086> of the garden <01588> thou mayest freely eat <0398>:
  • 17 But of the tree <06086> of the knowledge <01847> of good <02896> and evil <07451>, thou shalt not eat <0398> of it: for in the day <03117> that thou eatest <0398> thereof thou shalt surely die <04191>.
  • 18. And the LORD <03068> God <0430> said <0559>, [It is] not good <02896> that the man <0120> should be alone <0905>; I will make <06213> him an help <05828> meet <05828> for him.
  • 19 And out of the ground <0127> the LORD <03068> God <0430> formed <03335> every <03605> beast <02416> of the field <07704>, and every <03605> fowl <05775> of the air <08064>; and brought <0935> [them] unto Adam <0120> to see <07200> what <04100> he would call <07121> them: and whatsoever Adam <0120> called <07121> every living <02416> creature <05315>, that [was] the name <08034> thereof.
  • 20 And Adam <0120> gave <07121> names <08034> to all <03605> cattle <0929>, and to the fowl <05775> of the air <08064>, and to every <03605> beast <02416> of the field <07704>; but for Adam <0120> there was not found <04672> an help <05828> meet <05828> for him.
  • 21. And the LORD <03068> God <0430> caused a deep <08639> sleep <03462> to fall <05307> upon Adam <0121>, and he slept <03462>: and he took <03947> one <0259> of his ribs <06763>, and closed <05462> up the flesh <01320> instead <08478> thereof;
  • 22 And the rib <06763>, which <0834> the LORD <03068> God <0430> had taken <03947> from man <0120>, made <01129> he a woman <0802>, and brought <0935> her unto the man <0120>.
  • 23 And Adam <0120> said <0559>, This <02063> [is] now <06471> bone <06106> of my bones <06106>, and flesh <01320> of my flesh <01320>: she shall be called <07121> Woman <0802>, because <03588> she was taken <03947> out of Man <0376>.
  • 24 Therefore shall a man <0376> leave <05800> his father <01> and his mother <0517>, and shall cleave <01692> unto his wife <0802>: and they shall be one <0259> flesh <01320>.
  • 25 And they were both <08147> naked <06174>, the man <0120> and his wife <0802>, and were not ashamed <0954>.
  • Genesis 3
  • 1. Now the serpent <05175> was more subtil <06175> than any <03605> beast <02416> of the field <07704> which <0834> the LORD <03068> God <0430> had made <06213>. And he said <0559> unto the woman <0802>, Yea, hath God <0430> said <0559>, Ye shall not eat <0398> of every <03605> tree <06086> of the garden <01588>?
  • 2 And the woman <0802> said <0559> unto the serpent <05175>, We may eat <0398> of the fruit <06529> of the trees <06086> of the garden <01588>:
  • 3 But of the fruit <06529> of the tree <06086> which <0834> [is] in the midst <08432> of the garden <01588>, God <0430> hath said <0559>, Ye shall not eat <0398> of it, neither shall ye touch <05060> it, lest <06435> ye die <04191>.
  • 4 And the serpent <05175> said <0559> unto the woman <0802>, Ye shall not surely die <04191>:
  • 5 For God <0430> doth know <03045> that in the day <03117> ye eat <0398> thereof, then your eyes <05869> shall be opened <06491>, and ye shall be as gods <0430>, knowing <03045> good <02896> and evil <07451>.
  • 6. And when the woman <0802> saw <07200> that the tree <06086> [was] good <02896> for food <03978>, and that it [was] pleasant <08378> to the eyes <05869>, and a tree <06086> to be desired <02530> to make [one] wise <07919>, she took <03947> of the fruit <06529> thereof, and did eat <0398>, and gave <05414> also <01571> unto her husband <0376> with her; and he did eat <0398>.
  • 7 And the eyes <05869> of them both <08147> were opened <06491>, and they knew <03045> that they [were] naked <05903>; and they sewed <08609> fig <08384> leaves <02529> together, and made <06213> themselves <01992> aprons <02290>.
  • 8 And they heard <08085> the voice <06963> of the LORD <03068> God <0430> walking <01980> in the garden <01588> in the cool <07307> of the day <03117>: and Adam <0120> and his wife <0802> hid <02244> themselves from the presence <06440> of the LORD <03068> God <0430> amongst <08432> the trees <06086> of the garden <01588>.
  • 9. And the LORD <03068> God <0430> called <07121> unto Adam <0120>, and said <0559> unto him, Where <0335> [art] thou?
  • 10 And he said <0559>, I heard <08085> thy voice <06963> in the garden <01588>, and I was afraid <03372>, because <03588> I [was] naked <05903>; and I hid <02244> myself.
  • 11. And he said <0559>, Who <04310> told <05046> thee that thou [wast] naked <05903>? Hast thou eaten <0398> of the tree <06086>, whereof <0834> I commanded <06680> thee that thou shouldest not eat <0398>?
  • 12 And the man <0120> said <0559>, The woman <0802> whom <0834> thou gavest <05414> [to be] with me, she gave <05414> me of the tree <06086>, and I did eat <0398>.
  • 13 And the LORD <03068> God <0430> said <0559> unto the woman <0802>, What <04100> [is] this <02063> [that] thou hast done <06213>? And the woman <0802> said <0559>, The serpent <05175> beguiled <05377> me, and I did eat <0398>.
  • 14. And the LORD <03068> God <0430> said <0559> unto the serpent <05175>, Because <03588> thou hast done <06213> this <02063>, thou [art] cursed <0779> above all <03605> cattle <0929>, and above every <03605> beast <02416> of the field <07704>; upon thy belly <01512> shalt thou go <03212>, and dust <06083> shalt thou eat <0398> all <03605> the days <03117> of thy life <02416>:
  • 15 And I will put <07896> enmity <0342> between <0996> thee and the woman <0802>, and between <0996> thy seed <02233> and her seed <02233>; it shall bruise <07779> thy head <07218>, and thou shalt bruise <07779> his heel <06119>.

  • 30 And he said <0559> [unto him], Oh <04994> let not the Lord <0136> be angry <02734>, and I will speak <01696>: Peradventure <0194> there <08033> shall thirty <07970> be found <04672> there <08033>. And he said <0559>, I will not do <06213> [it], if <0518> I find <04672> thirty <07970> there <08033>.
  • 31 And he said <0559>, Behold <02009> now <04994>, I have taken <02974> upon me to speak <01696> unto the Lord <0136>: Peradventure <0194> there <08033> shall be twenty <06242> found <04672> there <08033>. And he said <0559>, I will not destroy <07843> [it] for twenty's <06242> sake <05668>.
  • 32 And he said <0559>, Oh <04994> let not the Lord <0136> be angry <02734>, and I will speak <01696> yet <0389> but this <06471> once <06471>: Peradventure <0194> ten <06235> shall be found <04672> there <08033>. And he said <0559>, I will not destroy <07843> [it] for ten's <06235> sake <05668>.
  • 33 And the LORD <03068> went <03212> his way <03212>, as soon <0834> as he had left <03615> communing <01696> with Abraham <085>: and Abraham <085> returned <07725> unto his place <04725>.
  • Genesis 19
  • 1. And there came <0935> two <08147> angels <04397> to Sodom <05467> at even <06153>; and Lot <03876> sat <03427> in the gate <08179> of Sodom <05467>: and Lot <03876> seeing <07200> [them] rose <06965> up to meet <07125> them; and he bowed <07812> himself with his face <0639> toward the ground <0776>;
  • 2 And he said <0559>, Behold <02009> now <04994>, my lords <0113>, turn <05493> in, I pray <04994> you, into <0413> your servant's <05650> house <01004>, and tarry <03885> all <03885> night, and wash <07364> your feet <07272>, and ye shall rise <07925> up early <07925>, and go <01980> on your ways <01870>. And they said <0559>, Nay; but we will abide <03885> in the street <07339> all <03885> night.
  • 3 And he pressed <06484> upon them greatly <03966>; and they turned <05493> in unto him, and entered <0935> into <0413> his house <01004>; and he made <06213> them a feast <04960>, and did bake <0644> unleavened <04682> bread, and they did eat <0398>.
  • 4. But before <02962> they lay <07901> down, the men <0582> of the city <05892>, [even] the men <0582> of Sodom <05467>, compassed <05437> the house <01004> round <05921>, both old <02205> and young <05288>, all <03605> the people <05971> from every quarter <07098>:
  • 5 And they called <07121> unto Lot <03876>, and said <0559> unto him, Where <0346> [are] the men <0582> which <0834> came <0935> in to thee this night <03915>? bring <03318> them out unto us, that we may know <03045> them.
  • 6 And Lot <03876> went <03318> out at the door <06607> unto them, and shut <05462> the door <01817> after <0310> him,
  • 7 And said <0559>, I pray <04994> you, brethren <0251>, do not so wickedly <07489>.
  • 8 Behold <02009> now <04994>, I have two <08147> daughters <01363> which <0834> have not known <03045> man <0376>; let me, I pray <04994> you, bring <03318> them out unto you, and do <06213> ye to them as [is] good <02896> in your eyes <05869>: only unto these <0428> men <0582> do <06213> nothing; for therefore came <0935> they under the shadow <06738> of my roof <06982>.
  • 9 And they said <0559>, Stand <05066> back <01973>. And they said <0559> [again], This one <0259> [fellow <07453>] came <0935> in to sojourn <01481>, and he will needs be a judge <08199>: now <06288> will we deal worse <07489> with thee, than with them. And they pressed <06484> sore <03966> upon the man <0376>, [even] Lot <03876>, and came <05066> near <05066> to break <07665> the door <01817>.
  • 10 But the men <0582> put <07971> forth <07971> their hand <03027>, and pulled <0935> Lot <03876> into the house <01004> to them, and shut <05462> to the door <01817>.
  • 11 And they smote <05221> the men <0582> that [were] at the door <06607> of the house <01004> with blindness <05575>, both small <06996> and great <01419>: so that they wearied <03811> themselves to find <04672> the door <06607>.
  • 12. And the men <0582> said <0559> unto Lot <03876>, Hast thou here <06311> any <04310> besides <05750>? son <01121> in law <02859>, and thy sons <01121>, and thy daughters <01363>, and whatsoever thou hast in the city <05892>, bring <03318> [them] out of this place <04725>:
  • 13 For we will destroy <07843> this <02088> place <04725>, because <03588> the cry <06818> of them is waxen great <01431> before <0854> the face <06440> of the LORD <03068>; and the LORD <03068> hath sent <07971> us to destroy <07843> it.
  • 14 And Lot <03876> went <03318> out, and spake <01696> unto his sons <02860> in law <02859>, which married <03947> his daughters <01363>, and said <0559>, Up, get <03318> you out of this <02088> place <04725>; for the LORD <03068> will destroy <07843> this city <05892>. But he seemed as one that mocked <06711> unto his sons <02860> in law <02859>.
  • 15. And when <03644> the morning <07837> arose <05927>, then the angels <04397> hastened <0213> Lot <03876>, saying <0559>, Arise <06965>, take <03947> thy wife <0802>, and thy two <08147> daughters <01363>, which are here <04672>; lest <06435> thou be consumed <05595> in the iniquity <05771> of the city <05892>.
  • 16 And while he lingered <04102>, the men <0582> laid hold <02388> upon his hand <03027>, and upon the hand <03027> of his wife <0802>, and upon the hand <03027> of his two <08147> daughters <01363>; the LORD <03068> being merciful <02551> unto him: and they brought <03318> him forth <03318>, and set <03240> him without <02351> the city <05892>.
  • 17 And it came <01961> to pass, when they had brought <03318> them forth <03318> abroad <02351>, that he said <0559>, Escape <04422> for thy life <05315>; look <05027> not behind <0310> thee, neither <0408> stay <05975> thou in all <03605> the plain <03603>; escape <04422> to the mountain <02022>, lest <06435> thou be consumed <05595>.
  • 18 And Lot <03876> said <0559> unto them, Oh <04994>, not so, my Lord <0113>:
  • 19 Behold <02009> now <04994>, thy servant <05650> hath found <04672> grace <02580> in thy sight <05869>, and thou hast magnified <01431> thy mercy <02617>, which <0834> thou hast shewed <06213> unto me in saving <02421> my life <05315>; and I cannot escape <04422> to the mountain <02022>, lest <06435> some evil <07451> take <01692> me, and I die <04191>:
  • 20 Behold <02009> now <04994>, this <02063> city <05892> [is] near <07138> to flee <05127> unto, and it [is] a little <04705> one: Oh <04994>, let me escape <04422> thither, ([is] it not a little <04705> one?) and my soul <05315> shall live <02421>.
  • 21 And he said <0559> unto him, See <02009>, I have accepted <05375> thee concerning this <02088> thing <01697> also <01571>, that I will not overthrow <02015> this city <05892>, for the which <0834> thou hast spoken <01696>.
  • 22 Haste <04116> thee, escape <04422> thither; for I cannot do <06213> any thing till <05704> thou be come <0935> thither. Therefore the name <08034> of the city <05892> was called <07121> Zoar <06820>.
  • 23 The sun <08121> was risen <03318> upon the earth <0776> when Lot <03876> entered <0935> into Zoar <06820>.
  • 24. Then the LORD <03068> rained <04305> upon Sodom <05467> and upon Gomorrah <06017> brimstone <01614> and fire <0784> from the LORD <03068> out of heaven <08064>;
  • 25 And he overthrew <02015> those <0411> cities <05892>, and all <03605> the plain <03603>, and all <03605> the inhabitants <03427> of the cities <05892>, and that which grew <06780> upon the ground <0127>.
  • 26. But his wife <0802> looked <05027> back from behind <0310> him, and she became <01961> a pillar <05333> of salt <04417>.
  • 27. And Abraham <085> gat up early <07925> in the morning <01242> to the place <04725> where <0834> he stood <05975> before the LORD <03068>:
  • 28 And he looked <08259> toward Sodom <05467> and Gomorrah <06017>, and toward all <03605> the land <0776> of the plain <03603>, and beheld <07200>, and, lo <02009>, the smoke <07008> of the country <0776> went <05927> up as the smoke <07008> of a furnace <03536>.
  • 29 And it came <01961> to pass, when God <0430> destroyed <07843> the cities <05892> of the plain <03603>, that God <0430> remembered <02142> Abraham <085>, and sent <07971> Lot <03876> out of the midst <08432> of the overthrow <02018>, when he overthrew <02015> the cities <05892> in the which <0834> Lot <03876> dwelt <03427>.
  • 30. And Lot <03876> went <05927> up out of Zoar <06820>, and dwelt <03427> in the mountain <02022>, and his two <08147> daughters <01363> with him; for he feared <03372> to dwell <03418> in Zoar <06820>: and he dwelt <03427> in a cave <04631>, he and his two <08147> daughters <01363>.
  • 31 And the firstborn <01067> said <0559> unto the younger <06810>, Our father <01> [is] old <02204>, and [there is] not a man <0376> in the earth <0776> to come <0935> in unto us after the manner <01870> of all <03605> the earth <0776>:
  • 32 Come <03212>, let us make our father <01> drink <08248> wine <03196>, and we will lie <07901> with him, that we may preserve <02421> seed <02233> of our father <01>.
  • 33 And they made their father <01> drink <08248> wine <03196> that night <03915>: and the firstborn <01067> went <0935> in, and lay <07901> with her father <01>; and he perceived <03045> not when she lay <07901> down, nor when she arose <06965>.
  • 34 And it came <01961> to pass on the morrow <04283>, that the firstborn <01067> said <0559> unto the younger <06810>, Behold <02005>, I lay <07901> yesternight <0570> with my father <01>: let us make him drink <08248> wine <03196> this night <03915> also <01571>; and go <0935> thou in, [and] lie <07901> with him, that we may preserve <02421> seed <02233> of our father <01>.
  • 35 And they made their father <01> drink <08248> wine <03196> that night <03915> also <01571>: and the younger <06810> arose <06965>, and lay <07901> with him; and he perceived <03045> not when she lay <07901> down, nor when she arose <06965>.
  • 36 Thus were both <08147> the daughters <01363> of Lot <03876> with child <02029> by their father <01>.
  • 37 And the firstborn <01067> bare <03205> a son <01121>, and called <07121> his name <08034> Moab <04124>: the same <01931> [is] the father <01> of the Moabites <04124> unto this day <03117>.
  • 38 And the younger <06810>, she also <01571> bare <03205> a son <01121>, and called <07121> his name <08034> Benammi <01151>: the same <01931> [is] the father <01> of the children <01121> of Ammon <05983> unto this day <03117>.
  • Genesis 20
  • 1. And Abraham <085> journeyed <05265> from thence <08033> toward the south <05045> country <0776>, and dwelled <03427> between <0996> Kadesh <06946> and Shur <07793>, and sojourned <01481> in Gerar <01642>.
  • 2 And Abraham <085> said <0559> of Sarah <08283> his wife <0802>, She [is] my sister <0269>: and Abimelech <040> king <04428> of Gerar <01642> sent <07971>, and took <03947> Sarah <08283>.
  • 3. But God <0430> came <0935> to Abimelech <040> in a dream <02472> by night <03915>, and said <0559> to him, Behold <02009>, thou [art but] a dead <04191> man <0376>, for the woman <0802> which <0834> thou hast taken <03947>; for she [is] a man's <01167> wife <01166>.
  • 4 But Abimelech <040> had not come <07126> near <07126> her: and he said <0559>, Lord <0136>, wilt thou slay <02026> also <01571> a righteous <06662> nation <01471>?
  • 5 Said <0559> he not unto me, She [is] my sister <0269>? and she, even <01571> she herself said <0559>, He [is] my brother <0251>: in the integrity <08537> of my heart <03824> and innocency <05356> of my hands <03709> have I done <06213> this <02063>.
  • 6 And God <0430> said <0559> unto him in a dream <02472>, Yea <01571>, I know <03045> that thou didst <06213> this <02063> in the integrity <08537> of thy heart <03824>; for I also withheld <02820> thee from sinning <02398> against me: therefore suffered <05414> I thee not to touch <05060> her.
  • 7 Now <06258> therefore restore <07725> the man <0376> [his] wife <0802>; for he [is] a prophet <05030>, and he shall pray <06419> for thee, and thou shalt live <02421>: and if <0518> thou restore <07725> [her] not, know <03045> thou that thou shalt surely <03588> die <04191>, thou, and all <03605> that [are] thine.
  • 8. Therefore Abimelech <040> rose <07925> early <07925> in the morning <01242>, and called <07121> all <03605> his servants <05650>, and told <01696> all <03605> these <0428> things <01697> in their ears <0241>: and the men <0582> were sore <03966> afraid <03372>.
  • 9 Then Abimelech <040> called <07121> Abraham <085>, and said <0559> unto him, What <04100> hast thou done <06213> unto us? and what <04100> have I offended <02398> thee, that thou hast brought <0935> on <05921> me and on <05921> my kingdom <04467> a great <01419> sin <02401>? thou hast done <06213> deeds <04639> unto me that ought <03972> not to be done <06213>.
  • 10 And Abimelech <040> said <0559> unto Abraham <085>, What <04100> sawest <07200> thou, that thou hast done <06213> this <02088> thing <01697>?
  • 11 And Abraham <085> said <0559>, Because <03588> I thought <0559>, Surely <07535> the fear <03374> of God <0430> [is] not in this <02088> place <04725>; and they will slay <02026> me for my wife's <0802> sake <01697>.
  • 12 And yet <01571> indeed <0546> [she is] my sister <0269>; she [is] the daughter <01323> of my father <01>, but not the daughter <01323> of my mother <0517>; and she became <01961> my wife <0802>.
  • 13 And it came <01961> to pass, when <0834> God <0430> caused me to wander <08582> from my father's <01> house <01004>, that I said <0559> unto her, This <02088> [is] thy kindness <02617> which <0834> thou shalt shew <06213> unto me; at <0413> every <03605> place <04725> whither we shall come <0935>, say <0559> of me, He [is] my brother <0251>.
  • 14. And Abimelech <040> took <03947> sheep <06629>, and oxen <01241>, and menservants <05650>, and womenservants <08198>, and gave <05414> [them] unto Abraham <085>, and restored <07725> him Sarah <08283> his wife <0802>.
  • 15 And Abimelech <040> said <0559>, Behold <02009>, my land <0776> [is] before <06440> thee: dwell <03418> where it pleaseth thee.
  • 16 And unto Sarah <08283> he said <0559>, Behold <02009>, I have given <05414> thy brother <0251> a thousand <0505> [pieces] of silver <03701>: behold <02009>, he [is] to thee a covering <03682> of the eyes <05869>, unto all <03605> that [are] with thee, and with all <03605> [other]: thus she was reproved <03198>.
  • 17 So Abraham <085> prayed <06419> unto God <0430>: and God <0430> healed <07495> Abimelech <040>, and his wife <0802>, and his maidservants <0519>; and they bare <03205> [children].
  • 18 For the LORD <03068> had fast closed <06113> up all <03605> the wombs <07358> of the house <01004> of Abimelech <040>, because of Sarah <08283> Abraham's <085> wife <0802>.

  • 2 For Sarah <08283> conceived <02030>, and bare <03205> Abraham <085> a son <01121> in his old <02208> age, at the set <04150> time of which <0834> God <0430> had spoken <01696> to him.
  • 3 And Abraham <085> called <07121> the name <08034> of his son <01121> that was born <03205> unto him, whom <0834> Sarah <08283> bare <03205> to him, Isaac <03327>.
  • 4 And Abraham <085> circumcised <04135> his son <01121> Isaac <03327> being eight <08083> days <03117> old <01121>, as God <0430> had commanded <06680> him.
  • 5 And Abraham <085> was an hundred <03967> years <08141> old <01121>, when his son <01121> Isaac <03327> was born <03205> unto him.

  • 7 And she said <0559>, Who <04310> would have said <04448> unto Abraham <085>, that Sarah <08283> should have given children <01121> suck <03243>? for I have born <03205> [him] a son <01121> in his old <02208> age.
  • 8 And the child <03206> grew <01431>, and was weaned <01580>: and Abraham <085> made <06213> a great <01419> feast <04960> the [same] day <03117> that Isaac <03327> was weaned <01580>.
  • 9. And Sarah <08283> saw <07200> the son <01121> of Hagar <01904> the Egyptian <04713>, which <0834> she had born <03205> unto Abraham <085>, mocking <06711>.
  • 10 Wherefore she said <0559> unto Abraham <085>, Cast <01644> out this <02063> bondwoman <0519> and her son <01121>: for the son <01121> of this <02063> bondwoman <0519> shall not be heir <03423> with my son, [even] with Isaac <03327>.
  • 11 And the thing <01697> was very <03966> grievous <07489> in Abraham's <085> sight <05869> because of his son <01121>.

  • 13 And also of the son <01121> of the bondwoman <0519> will I make <07760> a nation <01471>, because <03588> he [is] thy seed <02233>.
  • 14.

  • 15 And the water <04325> was spent <03615> in the bottle <02573>, and she cast <07993> the child <03206> under <08478> one <0259> of the shrubs <07880>.
  • 16 And she went <03212>, and sat <03427> her down over <05048> against <05048> [him] a good <07368> way off, as it were a bowshot: for <07198> she said <0559>, Let me not see <07200> the death <04194> of the child <03206>.

  • 17 And God <0430> heard <08085> the voice <06963> of the lad <05288>; and the angel <04397> of God <0430> called <07121> to Hagar <01904> out of heaven <08064>, and said <0559> unto her, What <04100> aileth thee, Hagar <01904>? fear <03372> not; for God <0430> hath heard <08085> the voice <06963> of the lad <05288> where <0834> he [is].
  • 18 Arise <06965>, lift <05375> up the lad <05288>, and hold <02388> him in thine hand <03027>; for I will make <07760> him a great <01419> nation <01471>.
  • 19 And God <0430> opened <06491> her eyes <05869>, and she saw <07200> a well <0875> of water <04325>; and she went <03212>, and filled <04390> the bottle <02573> with water <04325>, and gave the lad <05288> drink <08248>.
  • 20 And God <0430> was with the lad <05288>; and he grew <01431>, and dwelt <03427> in the wilderness <04057>, and became <01961> an archer <07198>.
  • 21 And he dwelt <03427> in the wilderness <04057> of Paran <06290>: and his mother <0517> took <03947> him a wife <0802> out of the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>.

  • 26 And Abimelech <040> said <0559>, I wot <03045> not who <04310> hath done <06213> this <02088> thing <01697>: neither <03808> didst thou tell <05046> me, neither <03808> yet <01571> heard <08085> I [of it], but to day <03117>.
  • 27 And Abraham <085> took <03947> sheep <06629> and oxen <01241>, and gave <05414> them unto Abimelech <040>; and both <08147> of them made <03772> a covenant <01285>.
  • 28 And Abraham <085> set <05324> seven <07651> ewe <03535> lambs <03535> of the flock <06629> by themselves.
  • 29 And Abimelech <040> said <0559> unto Abraham <085>, What <04100> [mean] these seven <07651> ewe <03535> lambs <03535> which <0834> thou hast set <05324> by themselves?
  • 30 And he said <0559>, For [these] seven <07651> ewe <03535> lambs <03535> shalt thou take <03947> of my hand <03027>, that they may be a witness <05713> unto me, that I have digged <02658> this well <0875>.
  • 31 Wherefore <04100> he called <07121> that place <04725> Beersheba <0884>; because <03588> there <08033> they sware <07650> both <08147> of them.
  • 32 Thus <03541> they made <03772> a covenant <01285> at Beersheba <0884>: then Abimelech <040> rose <06965> up, and Phichol <06369> the chief captain <08269> of his host <06635>, and they returned <07725> into <0413> the land <0776> of the Philistines <06430>.

  • 2 And he said <0559>, Take <03947> now <04994> thy son <01121>, thine only <03173> [son] Isaac <03327>, whom <0834> thou lovest <0157>, and get <03212> thee into <0413> the land <0776> of Moriah <04179>; and offer <05927> him there <08033> for a burnt <05930> offering upon one <0259> of the mountains <02022> which <0834> I will tell <0559> thee of.
  • 3.

  • 4 Then on the third <07992> day <03117> Abraham <085> lifted <05375> up his eyes <05869>, and saw <07200> the place <04725> afar <07350> off.
  • 5 And Abraham <085> said <0559> unto his young <05288> men, Abide <03427> ye here <06311> with the ass <02543>; and I and the lad <05288> will go <03212> yonder <03541> and worship <07812>, and come <07725> again <07725> to you.
  • 6 And Abraham <085> took <03947> the wood <06086> of the burnt <05930> offering, and laid <07760> [it] upon Isaac <03327> his son <01121>; and he took <03947> the fire <0784> in his hand <03027>, and a knife <03979>; and they went <03212> both <08147> of them together <03162>.
  • 7 And Isaac <03327> spake <0559> unto Abraham <085> his father <01>, and said <0559>, My father <01>: and he said <0559>, Here <02009> [am] I, my son <01121>.

  • 8 And Abraham <085> said <0559>, My son <01121>, God <0430> will provide <07200> himself a lamb <07716> for a burnt <05930> offering: so they went <03212> both <08147> of them together <03162>.
  • 9 And they came <0935> to the place <04725> which <0834> God <0430> had told <0559> him of; and Abraham <085> built <01129> an altar <04196> there <08033>, and laid the wood <06086> in order, and bound <06123> Isaac <03327> his son <01121>, and laid <07760> him on <05921> the altar <04196> upon the wood <06086>.
  • 10 And Abraham <085> stretched <07971> forth his hand <03027>, and took <03947> the knife <03979> to slay <07819> his son <01121>.

  • 5 And the servant <05650> said <0559> unto him, Peradventure <0194> the woman <0802> will not be willing <014> to follow me unto this land <0776>: must I needs bring <07725> thy son <01121> again <07725> unto the land <0776> from whence <0370> thou camest <03318>?
  • 6 And Abraham <085> said <0559> unto him, Beware <08104> thou that thou bring <07725> not my son <01121> thither again <07725>.
  • 7 The LORD <03068> God <0430> of heaven <08064>, which <0834> took <03947> me from my father's <01> house <01004>, and from the land <0776> of my kindred <04138>, and which <0834> spake <01696> unto me, and that sware <07650> unto me, saying <0559>, Unto thy seed <02233> will I give <05414> this land <0776>; he shall send <07971> his angel <04397> before <06440> thee, and thou shalt take <03947> a wife <0802> unto my son <01121> from thence <08033>.
  • 8 And if the woman <0802> will not be willing <014> to follow thee, then thou shalt be clear <05352> from this my oath <07621>: only bring <07725> not my son <01121> thither <08033> again <07725>.
  • 9 And the servant <05650> put <07760> his hand <03027> under <08478> the thigh <03409> of Abraham <085> his master <0113>, and sware <07650> to him concerning <05921> that matter <01697>.
  • 10. And the servant <05650> took <03947> ten <06235> camels <01581> of the camels <01581> of his master <0113>, and departed <03212>; for all <03605> the goods <02898> of his master <0113> [were] in his hand <03027>: and he arose <06965>, and went <03212> to Mesopotamia <0763>, unto the city <05892> of Nahor <05152>.
  • 11 And he made his camels <01581> to kneel <01288> down <01288> without <02351> the city <05892> by a well <0875> of water <04325> at the time <06256> of the evening <06153>, [even] the time <06256> that women go <03318> out to draw <07579> [water].
  • 12 And he said <0559>, O LORD <03068> God <0430> of my master <0113> Abraham <085>, I pray <04994> thee, send <07136> me good speed <07136> this day <03117>, and shew <06213> kindness <02617> unto my master <0113> Abraham <085>.
  • 13 Behold <02009>, I stand <05324> [here] by the well <05869> of water <04325>; and the daughters <01363> of the men <0582> of the city <05892> come <03318> out to draw <07579> water <04325>:
  • 14 And let it come <0935> to pass, that the damsel <05291> to whom <0834> I shall say <0559>, Let <05186> down <05186> thy pitcher <03537>, I pray <04994> thee, that I may drink <08354>; and she shall say <0559>, Drink <08354>, and I will give thy camels <01581> drink <08248> also: [let the same <01931> be] she [that] thou hast appointed <03198> for thy servant <05650> Isaac <03327>; and thereby <02004> shall I know <03045> that thou hast shewed <06213> kindness <02617> unto my master <0113>.
  • 15 And it came <01961> to pass, before <06440> he had done <03615> speaking <01696>, that, behold <02009>, Rebekah <07259> came <03318> out, who <0834> was born <03205> to Bethuel <01328>, son <01121> of Milcah <04435>, the wife <0802> of Nahor <05152>, Abraham's <085> brother <0251>, with her pitcher <03537> upon her shoulder <07926>.
  • 16 And the damsel <05291> [was] very <03966> fair <02896> to look <04758> upon, a virgin <01330>, neither <03808> had any man <0376> known <03045> her: and she went <03381> down <03381> to the well <05869>, and filled <04390> her pitcher <03537>, and came <05927> up.
  • 17 And the servant <05650> ran <07323> to meet <07125> her, and said <0559>, Let me, I pray <04994> thee, drink <01572> a little <04592> water <04325> of thy pitcher <03537>.
  • 18 And she said <0559>, Drink <08354>, my lord <0113>: and she hasted <04116>, and let <03381> down <03381> her pitcher <03537> upon her hand <03027>, and gave him drink <08248>.
  • 19 And when <03588> she had done <03615> giving him drink <08248>, she said <0559>, I will draw <07579> [water <04325>] for thy camels <01581> also, until they have done <03615> drinking <08354>.
  • 20 And she hasted <04116>, and emptied <06168> her pitcher <03537> into <0413> the trough <08268>, and ran <07323> again <05750> unto the well <0875> to draw <07579> [water <04325>], and drew <08025> for all <03605> his camels <01581>.
  • 21 And the man <0376> wondering <07583> at her held <02790> his peace <02790>, to wit <03045> whether <0518> the LORD <03068> had made <06743> his journey <01870> prosperous <06743> or not.
  • 22 And it came <01961> to pass, as the camels <01581> had done <03615> drinking <08354>, that the man <0376> took <03947> a golden <02091> earring <05141> of half <01235> a shekel <01235> weight <04948>, and two <08147> bracelets <06781> for her hands <03027> of ten <06235> [shekels <08255>] weight <04948> of gold <02091>;
  • 23 And said <0559>, Whose <04310> daughter <01323> [art] thou? tell <05046> me, I pray <04994> thee: is there room <04725> [in] thy father's <01> house <01004> for us to lodge <03885> in?
  • 24 And she said <0559> unto him, I [am] the daughter <01323> of Bethuel <01328> the son <01121> of Milcah <04435>, which <0834> she bare <03205> unto Nahor <05152>.
  • 25 She said <0559> moreover unto him, We have both <01571> straw <08401> and provender <04554> enough <07227>, and room <04725> to lodge <03885> in.
  • 26 And the man <0376> bowed <06915> down <06915> his head, and worshipped <07812> the LORD <03068>.
  • 27 And he said <0559>, Blessed <01288> [be] the LORD <03068> God <0430> of my master <0113> Abraham <085>, who <04310> hath not left <05800> destitute <05800> my master <0113> of his mercy <02617> and his truth <0571>: I [being] in the way <01870>, the LORD <03068> led <05148> me to the house <01004> of my master's <0113> brethren <0251>.
  • 28 And the damsel <05291> ran <07323>, and told <05046> [them of] her mother's <0517> house <01004> these things <01697>.
  • 29. And Rebekah <07259> had a brother <0251>, and his name <08034> [was] Laban <03837>: and Laban <03837> ran <07323> out unto the man <0376>, unto the well <05869>.
  • 30 And it came <01961> to pass, when <03588> he saw <07200> the earring <05141> and bracelets <06781> upon his sister's <0269> hands <03027>, and when <03588> he heard <08085> the words <01697> of Rebekah <07259> his sister <0269>, saying <0559>, Thus <03541> spake <01696> the man <0376> unto me; that he came <0935> unto the man <0376>; and, behold <02009>, he stood <05975> by the camels <01581> at <05921> the well <05869>.
  • 31 And he said <0559>, Come <0935> in, thou blessed <01288> of the LORD <03068>; wherefore <04100> standest <05975> thou without <02351>? for I have prepared <06437> the house <01004>, and room <04725> for the camels <01581>.
  • 32 And the man <0376> came <0935> into the house <01004>: and he ungirded <06605> his camels <01581>, and gave <05414> straw <08401> and provender <04554> for the camels <01581>, and water <04325> to wash <07364> his feet <07272>, and the men's <0582> feet <07272> that [were] with him.
  • 33 And there was set <07760> [meat] before <06440> him to eat <0398>: but he said <0559>, I will not eat <0398>, until I have told <01696> mine errand <01697>. And he said <0559>, Speak <01696> on.
  • 34 And he said <0559>, I [am] Abraham's <085> servant <05650>.
  • 35 And the LORD <03068> hath blessed <01288> my master <0113> greatly <03966>; and he is become <01431> great <01431>: and he hath given <05414> him flocks <06629>, and herds <01241>, and silver <03701>, and gold <02091>, and menservants <05650>, and maidservants <08198>, and camels <01581>, and asses <02543>.
  • 36 And Sarah <08283> my master's <0113> wife <0802> bare <03205> a son <01121> to my master <0113> when <0310> she was old <02209>: and unto him hath he given <05414> all <03605> that he hath.
  • 37 And my master <0113> made me swear <07650>, saying <0559>, Thou shalt not take <03947> a wife <0802> to my son <01121> of the daughters <01363> of the Canaanites <03669>, in whose land <0776> I dwell <03418>:
  • 38 But thou shalt go <03212> unto my father's <01> house <01004>, and to my kindred <04940>, and take <03947> a wife <0802> unto my son <01121>.
  • 39 And I said <0559> unto my master <0113>, Peradventure <0194> the woman <0802> will not follow me.
  • 40 And he said <0559> unto me, The LORD <03068>, before <06440> whom <0834> I walk <01980>, will send <07971> his angel <04397> with thee, and prosper <06743> thy way <01870>; and thou shalt take <03947> a wife <0802> for my son <01121> of my kindred <04940>, and of my father's <01> house <01004>:
  • 41 Then <0227> shalt thou be clear <05352> from [this] my oath <0423>, when <03588> thou comest <0935> to my kindred <04940>; and if <0518> they give <05414> not thee [one], thou shalt be clear <05355> from my oath <0423>.
  • 42 And I came <0935> this day <03117> unto the well <05869>, and said <0559>, O LORD <03068> God <0430> of my master <0113> Abraham <085>, if <0518> now <04994> thou do prosper <06743> my way <01870> which <0834> I go <01980>:
  • 43 Behold <02009>, I stand <05324> by the well <05869> of water <04325>; and it shall come <01961> to pass, that when <03588> the virgin <05959> cometh <03318> forth <03318> to draw <07579> [water], and I say <0559> to her, Give me, I pray <04994> thee, a little <04592> water <04325> of thy pitcher <03537> to drink <08248>;
  • 44 And she say <0559> to me, Both <08147> drink <08354> thou, and I will also <01571> draw <07579> for thy camels <01581>: [let] the same <01931> [be] the woman <0802> whom <0834> the LORD <03068> hath appointed <03198> out for my master's <0113> son <01121>.
  • 45 And before <02962> I had done <03615> speaking <01696> in mine heart <03820>, behold <02009>, Rebekah <07259> came <03318> forth <03318> with her pitcher <03537> on <05921> her shoulder <07926>; and she went <03381> down <03381> unto the well <05869>, and drew <07579> [water <04325>]: and I said <0559> unto her, Let me drink <08248>, I pray <04994> thee.
  • 46 And she made haste <04116>, and let <03381> down <03381> her pitcher <03537> from her [shoulder], and said <0559>, Drink <08354>, and I will give thy camels <01581> drink <08248> also <01571>: so I drank <08354>, and she made the camels <01581> drink <08354> also <01571>.
  • 47 And I asked <07592> her, and said <0559>, Whose daughter <01323> [art] thou? And she said <0559>, The daughter <01323> of Bethuel <01328>, Nahor's <05152> son <01121>, whom <0834> Milcah <04435> bare <03205> unto him: and I put <07760> the earring <05141> upon her face <0639>, and the bracelets <06781> upon her hands <03027>.
  • 48 And I bowed <06915> down <06915> my head, and worshipped <07812> the LORD <03068>, and blessed <01288> the LORD <03068> God <0430> of my master <0113> Abraham <085>, which <0834> had led <05148> me in the right <0571> way <01870> to take <03947> my master's <0113> brother's <0251> daughter <01323> unto his son <01121>.
  • 49 And now <06258> if <0518> ye will deal <06213> kindly <02617> and truly <0571> with my master <0113>, tell <05046> me: and if <0518> not, tell <05046> me; that I may turn <06437> to the right <03225> hand <03225>, or <0176> to the left <08040>.
  • 50 Then Laban <03837> and Bethuel <01328> answered <06030> and said <0559>, The thing <01697> proceedeth <03318> from the LORD <03068>: we cannot speak <01696> unto thee bad <07451> or <0176> good <02896>.
  • 51 Behold <02009>, Rebekah <07259> [is] before <06440> thee, take <03947> [her], and go <03212>, and let her be thy master's <0113> son's <01121> wife <0802>, as the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696>.
  • 52 And it came <01961> to pass, that, when Abraham's <085> servant <05650> heard <08085> their words <01697>, he worshipped <07812> the LORD <03068>, [bowing himself] to the earth <0776>.
  • 53 And the servant <05650> brought <03318> forth <03318> jewels <03627> of silver <03701>, and jewels <03627> of gold <02091>, and raiment <0899>, and gave <05414> [them] to Rebekah <07259>: he gave <05414> also to her brother <0251> and to her mother <0517> precious <04030> things.
  • 54. And they did eat <0398> and drink <08354>, he and the men <0582> that [were] with him, and tarried <03885> all <03885> night; and they rose <06965> up in the morning <01242>, and he said <0559>, Send <07971> me away unto my master <0113>.
  • 55 And her brother <0251> and her mother <0517> said <0559>, Let the damsel <05291> abide <03427> with us [a few] days <03117>, at <0176> the least <0176> ten <06218>; after <0310> that she shall go <03212>.
  • 56 And he said <0559> unto them, Hinder <0309> me not, seeing the LORD <03068> hath prospered <06743> my way <01870>; send <07971> me away that I may go <03212> to my master <0113>.
  • 57 And they said <0559>, We will call <07121> the damsel <05291>, and enquire <07592> at her mouth <06310>.
  • 58 And they called <07121> Rebekah <07259>, and said <0559> unto her, Wilt thou go <03212> with this <02088> man <0376>? And she said <0559>, I will go <03212>.
  • 59 And they sent <07971> away Rebekah <07259> their sister <0269>, and her nurse <03243>, and Abraham's <085> servant <05650>, and his men <0582>.
  • 60 And they blessed <01288> Rebekah <07259>, and said <0559> unto her, Thou [art] our sister <0269>, be thou [the mother] of thousands <0505> of millions <07233>, and let thy seed <02233> possess <03423> the gate <08179> of those which hate <08130> them.
  • 61 And Rebekah <07259> arose <06965>, and her damsels <05291>, and they rode <07392> upon the camels <01581>, and followed the man <0376>: and the servant <05650> took <03947> Rebekah <07259>, and went <03212> his way <03212>.
  • 62. And Isaac <03327> came <0935> from the way <0935> of the well Lahairoi <0883>; for he dwelt <03427> in the south <05045> country <0776>.
  • 63 And Isaac <03327> went <03318> out to meditate in the field <07704> at the eventide: and he lifted <05375> up his eyes <05869>, and saw <07200>, and, behold <02009>, the camels <01581> [were] coming <0935>.
  • 64 And Rebekah <07259> lifted <05375> up her eyes <05869>, and when she saw <07200> Isaac <03327>, she lighted <05307> off <05921> the camel <01581>.
  • 65 For she [had] said <0559> unto the servant <05650>, What <04310> man <0376> [is] this <01976> that walketh <01980> in the field <07704> to meet <07125> us? And the servant <05650> [had] said <0559>, It [is] my master <0113>: therefore she took <03947> a vail <06809>, and covered <03680> herself.
  • 66 And the servant <05650> told <05608> Isaac <03327> all <03605> things <01697> that he had done <06213>.
  • 67 And Isaac <03327> brought <0935> her into his mother <0517> Sarah's <08283> tent <0168>, and took <03947> Rebekah <07259>, and she became <01961> his wife <0802>; and he loved <0157> her: and Isaac <03327> was comforted <05162> after <0310> his mother's <0517> [death].

  • 5 And Abraham <085> gave <05414> all <03605> that he had unto Isaac <03327>.
  • 6 But unto the sons <01121> of the concubines <06370>, which <0834> Abraham <085> had, Abraham <085> gave <05414> gifts <04979>, and sent <07971> them away from Isaac <03327> his son <01121>, while he yet lived <02416>, eastward <06924>, unto the east <06924> country <0776>.

  • 16 And she put <03847> the skins <05785> of the kids <01423> of the goats <05795> upon his hands <03027>, and upon the smooth <02513> of his neck <06677>:
  • 17 And she gave <05414> the savoury <04303> meat and the bread <03899>, which <0834> she had prepared <06213>, into the hand <03027> of her son <01121> Jacob <03290>.
  • 18. And he came <0935> unto his father <01>, and said <0559>, My father <01>: and he said <0559>, Here <02009> [am] I; who <04310> [art] thou, my son <01121>?
  • 19 And Jacob <03290> said <0559> unto his father <01>, I [am] Esau <06215> thy firstborn <01060>; I have done <06213> according as thou badest <01696> me: arise <06965>, I pray <04994> thee, sit <03427> and eat <0398> of my venison <06718>, that thy soul <05315> may bless <01288> me.
  • 20 And Isaac <03327> said <0559> unto his son <01121>, How <04100> [is it] that thou hast found <04672> [it] so quickly <04116>, my son <01121>? And he said <0559>, Because <03588> the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> brought <07136> [it] to me.
  • 21 And Isaac <03327> said <0559> unto Jacob <03290>, Come <05066> near <05066>, I pray <04994> thee, that I may feel <04184> thee, my son <01121>, whether thou [be] my very <02088> son <01121> Esau <06215> or not.
  • 22 And Jacob <03290> went <05066> near <05066> unto Isaac <03327> his father <01>; and he felt <04959> him, and said <0559>, The voice <06963> [is] Jacob's <03290> voice <06963>, but the hands <03027> [are] the hands <03027> of Esau <06215>.
  • 23 And he discerned <05234> him not, because <03588> his hands <03027> were hairy <08163>, as his brother <0251> Esau's <06215> hands <03027>: so he blessed <01288> him.
  • 24 And he said <0559>, [Art] thou my very <02088> son <01121> Esau <06215>? And he said <0559>, I [am].
  • 25 And he said <0559>, Bring <05066> [it] near <05066> to me, and I will eat <0398> of my son's <01121> venison <06718>, that my soul <05315> may bless <01288> thee. And he brought <05066> [it] near <05066> to him, and he did eat <0398>: and he brought <0935> him wine <03196>, and he drank <08354>.
  • 26 And his father <01> Isaac <03327> said <0559> unto him, Come <05066> near <05066> now <04994>, and kiss <05401> me, my son <01121>.
  • 27 And he came <05066> near <05066>, and kissed <05401> him: and he smelled <07306> the smell <07381> of his raiment <0899>, and blessed <01288> him, and said <0559>, See <07200>, the smell <07381> of my son <01121> [is] as the smell <07381> of a field <07704> which <0834> the LORD <03068> hath blessed <01288>:
  • 28 Therefore God <0430> give <05414> thee of the dew <02919> of heaven <08064>, and the fatness <04924> of the earth <0776>, and plenty <07230> of corn <01715> and wine <08492>:
  • 29 Let people <05971> serve <05647> thee, and nations <03816> bow <07812> down <07812> to thee: be lord <01376> over thy brethren <0251>, and let thy mother's <0517> sons <01121> bow <07812> down <07812> to thee: cursed <0779> [be] every one that curseth <0779> thee, and blessed <01288> [be] he that blesseth <01288> thee.
  • 30. And it came <01961> to pass, as soon <0834> as Isaac <03327> had made an end <03615> of blessing <01293> Jacob <03290>, and Jacob <03290> was yet <0389> scarce gone <03318> out from the presence <06440> of Isaac <03327> his father <01>, that Esau <06215> his brother <0251> came <0935> in from his hunting <06718>.
  • 31 And he also <01571> had made <06213> savoury <04303> meat, and brought <0935> it unto his father <01>, and said <0559> unto his father <01>, Let my father <01> arise <06965>, and eat <0398> of his son's <01121> venison <06718>, that thy soul <05315> may bless <01288> me.
  • 32 And Isaac <03327> his father <01> said <0559> unto him, Who <04310> [art] thou? And he said <0559>, I [am] thy son <01121>, thy firstborn <01060> Esau <06215>.
  • 33 And Isaac <03327> trembled <02729> very <01419> exceedingly <01419>, and said <0559>, Who <04310>? where <0645> [is] he that hath taken <06679> venison <06718>, and brought <0935> [it] me, and I have eaten <0398> of all <03605> before <02962> thou camest <0935>, and have blessed <01288> him? yea <01571>, [and] he shall be blessed <01288>.
  • 34 And when Esau <06215> heard <08085> the words <01697> of his father <01>, he cried <06817> with a great <01419> and exceeding <03966> bitter <04751> cry <06818>, and said <0559> unto his father <01>, Bless <01288> me, [even <01571>] me also <01571>, O my father <01>.
  • 35 And he said <0559>, Thy brother <0251> came <0935> with subtilty <04820>, and hath taken <03947> away thy blessing <01293>.
  • 36 And he said <0559>, Is not he rightly <03588> named Jacob <03290>? for he hath supplanted <06117> me these <02088> two <06471> times <06471>: he took <03947> away my birthright <01062>; and, behold <02009>, now <06258> he hath taken <03947> away my blessing <01293>. And he said <0559>, Hast thou not reserved <0680> a blessing <01293> for me?
  • 37 And Isaac <03327> answered <06030> and said <0559> unto Esau <06215>, Behold <02005>, I have made <07760> him thy lord <01376>, and all <03605> his brethren <0251> have I given <05414> to him for servants <05650>; and with corn <01715> and wine <08492> have I sustained <05564> him: and what <04100> shall I do <06213> now <0645> unto thee, my son <01121>?
  • 38 And Esau <06215> said <0559> unto his father <01>, Hast thou but one <0259> blessing <01293>, my father <01>? bless <01288> me, [even <01571>] me also <01571>, O my father <01>. And Esau <06215> lifted <05375> up his voice <06963>, and wept <01058>.
  • 39 And Isaac <03327> his father <01> answered <06030> and said <0559> unto him, Behold <02009>, thy dwelling <04186> shall be the fatness <04924> of the earth <0776>, and of the dew <02919> of heaven <08064> from above <05921>;
  • 40 And by thy sword <02719> shalt thou live <02421>, and shalt serve <05647> thy brother <0251>; and it shall come <01961> to pass when <0834> thou shalt have the dominion <07300>, that thou shalt break <06561> his yoke <05923> from off <05921> thy neck <06677>.
  • 41. And Esau <06215> hated <07852> Jacob <03290> because <05921> of the blessing <01293> wherewith <0834> his father <01> blessed <01288> him: and Esau <06215> said <0559> in his heart <03820>, The days <03117> of mourning <060> for my father <01> are at <07126> hand <07126>; then will I slay <02026> my brother <0251> Jacob <03290>.
  • 42 And these words <01697> of Esau <06215> her elder <01419> son <01121> were told <05046> to Rebekah <07259>: and she sent <07971> and called <07121> Jacob <03290> her younger <06996> son <01121>, and said <0559> unto him, Behold <02009>, thy brother <0251> Esau <06215>, as touching thee, doth comfort <05162> himself, [purposing] to kill <02026> thee.
  • 43 Now <06258> therefore, my son <01121>, obey <08085> my voice <06963>; and arise <06965>, flee <01272> thou to Laban <03837> my brother <0251> to Haran <02771>;
  • 44 And tarry <03427> with him a few <0259> days <03117>, until thy brother's <0251> fury <02534> turn <07725> away;
  • 45 Until <05704> thy brother's <0251> anger <0639> turn <07725> away from thee, and he forget <07911> [that] which <0834> thou hast done <06213> to him: then I will send <07971>, and fetch <03947> thee from thence <08033>: why <04100> should I be deprived <07921> also <01571> of you both <08147> in one <0259> day <03117>?
  • 46 And Rebekah <07259> said <0559> to Isaac <03327>, I am weary <06973> of my life <02416> because <06440> of the daughters <01363> of Heth <02845>: if <0518> Jacob <03290> take <03947> a wife <0802> of the daughters <01363> of Heth <02845>, such as these <0428> [which <0834> are] of the daughters <01363> of the land <0776>, what <04100> good shall my life <02416> do me?

  • 5 And Isaac <03327> sent <07971> away Jacob <03290>: and he went <03212> to Padanaram <06307> unto Laban <03837>, son <01121> of Bethuel <01328> the Syrian <0761>, the brother <0251> of Rebekah <07259>, Jacob's <03290> and Esau's <06215> mother <0517>.

  • 15. And Laban <03837> said <0559> unto Jacob <03290>, Because <03588> thou [art] my brother <0251>, shouldest thou therefore serve <05647> me for nought <02600>? tell <05046> me, what <04100> [shall] thy wages <04909> [be]?
  • 16 And Laban <03837> had two <08147> daughters <01363>: the name <08034> of the elder <01419> [was] Leah <03812>, and the name <08034> of the younger <06996> [was] Rachel <07354>.
  • 17 Leah <03812> [was] tender <07390> eyed <05869>; but Rachel <07354> was beautiful and well <03303> favoured <04758>.
  • 18 And Jacob <03290> loved <0157> Rachel <07354>; and said <0559>, I will serve <05647> thee seven <07651> years <08141> for Rachel <07354> thy younger <06996> daughter <01323>.
  • 19 And Laban <03837> said <0559>, [It is] better <02896> that I give <05414> her to thee, than that I should give <05414> her to another <0312> man <0376>: abide <03427> with me.
  • 20 And Jacob <03290> served <05647> seven <07651> years <08141> for Rachel <07354>; and they seemed unto him [but] a few <0259> days <03117>, for the love <0160> he had to her.
  • 21 And Jacob <03290> said <0559> unto Laban <03837>, Give <03051> [me] my wife <0802>, for my days <03117> are fulfilled <04390>, that I may go <0935> in unto her.
  • 22 And Laban <03837> gathered <0622> together all <03605> the men <0582> of the place <04725>, and made <06213> a feast <04960>.
  • 23 And it came <01961> to pass in the evening <06153>, that he took <03947> Leah <03812> his daughter <01323>, and brought <0935> her to him; and he went <0935> in unto her.
  • 24 And Laban <03837> gave <05414> unto his daughter <01323> Leah <03812> Zilpah <02153> his maid <08198> [for] an handmaid <08198>.
  • 25 And it came <01961> to pass, that in the morning <01242>, behold <02009>, it [was] Leah <03812>: and he said <0559> to Laban <03837>, What <04100> [is] this <02063> thou hast done <06213> unto me? did not I serve <05647> with thee for Rachel <07354>? wherefore then hast thou beguiled <07411> me?
  • 26 And Laban <03837> said <0559>, It must not be so <03651> done <06213> in our country <04725>, to give <05414> the younger <06810> before <06440> the firstborn <01067>.
  • 27 Fulfil <04390> her week <07620>, and we will give <05414> thee this <02063> also <01571> for the service <05656> which <0834> thou shalt serve <05647> with me yet <05750> seven <07651> other <0312> years <08141>.
  • 28 And Jacob <03290> did <06213> so <03651>, and fulfilled <04390> her week <07620>: and he gave <05414> him Rachel <07354> his daughter <01323> to wife <0802> also.
  • 29 And Laban <03837> gave <05414> to Rachel <07354> his daughter <01323> Bilhah <01090> his handmaid <08198> to be her maid <08198>.
  • 30 And he went <0935> in also <01571> unto Rachel <07354>, and he loved <0157> also <01571> Rachel <07354> more than Leah <03812>, and served <05647> with him yet <05750> seven <07651> other <0312> years <08141>.
  • 31. And when the LORD <03068> saw <07200> that Leah <03812> [was] hated <08130>, he opened <06605> her womb <07358>: but Rachel <07354> [was] barren <06135>.
  • 32 And Leah <03812> conceived <02030>, and bare <03205> a son <01121>, and she called <07121> his name <08034> Reuben <07205>: for she said <0559>, Surely <03588> the LORD <03068> hath looked <07200> upon my affliction <06040>; now <06258> therefore <03588> my husband <0376> will love <0157> me.
  • 33 And she conceived <02030> again <05750>, and bare <03205> a son <01121>; and said <0559>, Because <03588> the LORD <03068> hath heard <08085> that I [was] hated <08130>, he hath therefore <01571> given <05414> me this <02088> [son] also <01571>: and she called <07121> his name <08034> Simeon <08095>.
  • 34 And she conceived <02030> again <05750>, and bare <03205> a son <01121>; and said <0559>, Now this time <06471> will my husband <0376> be joined <03867> unto me, because <03588> I have born <03205> him three <07969> sons <01121>: therefore was his name <08034> called <07121> Levi <03878>.
  • 35 And she conceived <02030> again <05750>, and bare <03205> a son <01121>: and she said <0559>, Now will I praise <03034> the LORD <03068>: therefore she called <07121> his name <08034> Judah <03063>; and left <05975> bearing <03205>.

  • 1. And when Rachel <07354> saw <07200> that she bare <03205> Jacob <03290> no <0369> children, Rachel <07354> envied <07065> her sister <0269>; and said <0559> unto Jacob <03290>, Give <03051> me children <01121>, or else <0369> I die <04191>.
  • 2 And Jacob's <03290> anger <0639> was kindled <02734> against Rachel <07354>: and he said <0559>, [Am] I in God's <0430> stead <08478>, who <0834> hath withheld <04513> from thee the fruit <06529> of the womb <0990>?
  • 3 And she said <0559>, Behold <02009> my maid <0519> Bilhah <01090>, go <0935> in unto her; and she shall bear <03205> upon my knees <01290>, that I may also <01571> have children <01129> by her.
  • 4 And she gave <05414> him Bilhah <01090> her handmaid <08198> to wife <0802>: and Jacob <03290> went <0935> in unto her.

  • 7 And Bilhah <01090> Rachel's <07354> maid <08198> conceived <02030> again <05750>, and bare <03205> Jacob <03290> a second <08145> son <01121>.
  • 8 And Rachel <07354> said <0559>, With great <0430> wrestlings <05319> have I wrestled <06617> with my sister <0269>, and I have prevailed <03201>: and she called <07121> his name <08034> Naphtali <05321>.
  • 9 When Leah <03812> saw <07200> that she had left <05975> bearing <03205>, she took <03947> Zilpah <02153> her maid <08198>, and gave <05414> her Jacob <03290> to wife <0802>.

  • 13 And Leah <03812> said <0559>, Happy <0837> am I, for the daughters <01363> will call <0833> me blessed <0833>: and she called <07121> his name <08034> Asher <0836>.
  • 14. And Reuben <07205> went <03212> in the days <03117> of wheat <02406> harvest <07105>, and found <04672> mandrakes <01736> in the field <07704>, and brought <0935> them unto his mother <0517> Leah <03812>. Then Rachel <07354> said <0559> to Leah <03812>, Give <05414> me, I pray <04994> thee, of thy son's <01121> mandrakes <01736>.
  • 15 And she said <0559> unto her, [Is it] a small <04592> matter that thou hast taken <03947> my husband <0376>? and wouldest thou take <03947> away my son's <01121> mandrakes <01736> also <01571>?

  • 31 And he said <0559>, What <04100> shall I give <05414> thee? And Jacob <03290> said <0559>, Thou shalt not give <05414> me any <03972> thing <01697>: if <0518> thou wilt do <06213> this <02088> thing <01697> for me, I will again <07725> feed <07462> [and] keep <08104> thy flock <06629>:
  • 32 I will pass <05674> through all <03605> thy flock <06629> to day <03117>, removing <05493> from thence <08033> all <03605> the speckled <05348> and spotted <02921> cattle <07716>, and all <03605> the brown <02345> cattle <07716> among the sheep <03775>, and the spotted <02921> and speckled <05348> among the goats <05795>: and [of such] shall be my hire <07937>.
  • 33 So shall my righteousness <06666> answer <06030> for me in time <03117> to come <04279>, when <03588> it shall come <0935> for my hire <07937> before thy face <06440>: every <03605> one <03605> that [is] not speckled <05348> and spotted <02921> among the goats <05795>, and brown <02345> among the sheep <03775>, that shall be counted stolen <01589> with me.
  • 34 And Laban <03837> said <0559>, Behold <02005>, I would <03863> it might be according to thy word <01697>.
  • 35 And he removed <05493> that day <03117> the he goats <08495> that were ringstraked <06124> and spotted <02921>, and all <03605> the she goats <05795> that were speckled <05348> and spotted <02921>, [and] every <03605> one that had [some] white <03836> in it, and all <03605> the brown <02345> among the sheep <03775>, and gave <05414> [them] into the hand <03027> of his sons <01121>.
  • 36 And he set <07760> three <07969> days <03117>' journey <01870> betwixt <0996> himself and Jacob <03290>: and Jacob <03290> fed <07462> the rest <03498> of Laban's <03837> flocks <06629>.
  • 37. And Jacob <03290> took <03947> him rods <04731> of green <03892> poplar <03839>, and of the hazel <03869> and chesnut <06196> tree; and pilled <06478> white <03836> strakes <06479> in them, and made the white <03836> appear <04286> which <0834> [was] in the rods <04731>.
  • 38 And he set <03322> the rods <04731> which <0834> he had pilled <06478> before <05227> the flocks <06629> in the gutters <07298> in the watering <04325> troughs <08268> when <03588> the flocks <06629> came <0935> to drink <08354>, that they should conceive <03179> when they came <0935> to drink <08354>.
  • 39 And the flocks <06629> conceived <03179> before <0413> the rods <04731>, and brought <03205> forth <03209> cattle <06629> ringstraked <06124>, speckled <05348>, and spotted <02921>.
  • 40 And Jacob <03290> did separate <06504> the lambs <03775>, and set <05414> the faces <06440> of the flocks <06629> toward <0413> the ringstraked <06124>, and all <03605> the brown <02345> in the flock <06629> of Laban <03837>; and he put <07896> his own flocks <05739> by themselves <0905>, and put <07896> them not unto Laban's <03837> cattle <06629>.
  • 41 And it came <01961> to pass, whensoever <03605> the stronger <07194> cattle <06629> did conceive <03179>, that Jacob <03290> laid <07760> the rods <04731> before the eyes <05869> of the cattle <06629> in the gutters <07298>, that they might conceive <03179> among the rods <04731>.
  • 42 But when the cattle <06629> were feeble <05848>, he put <07760> [them] not in: so the feebler <05848> were Laban's <03837>, and the stronger <07194> Jacob's <03290>.
  • 43 And the man <0376> increased <06555> exceedingly <03966>, and had <01961> much <07227> cattle <06629>, and maidservants <08198>, and menservants <05650>, and camels <01581>, and asses <02543>.
  • Genesis 31
  • 1. And he heard <08085> the words <01697> of Laban's <03837> sons <01121>, saying <0559>, Jacob <03290> hath taken <03947> away all <03605> that [was] our father's <01>; and of [that] which <0834> [was] our father's <01> hath he gotten <04069> all <03605> this <02088> glory <03519>.
  • 2 And Jacob <03290> beheld <07200> the countenance <06440> of Laban <03837>, and, behold <02009>, it [was] not toward him as before.
  • 3 And the LORD <03068> said <0559> unto Jacob <03290>, Return <07725> unto the land <0776> of thy fathers <01>, and to thy kindred <04138>; and I will be with thee.
  • 4 And Jacob <03290> sent <07971> and called <07121> Rachel <07354> and Leah <03812> to the field <07704> unto his flock <06629>,
  • 5 And said <0559> unto them, I see <07200> your father's <01> countenance <06440>, that it [is] not toward me as before; but the God <0430> of my father <01> hath been <01961> with me.
  • 6 And ye know <03045> that with all <03605> my power <03581> I have served <05647> your father <01>.
  • 7 And your father <01> hath deceived <02048> me, and changed <02498> my wages <04909> ten <06235> times <04489>; but God <0430> suffered <05414> him not to hurt <07489> me.
  • 8 If <0518> he said <0559> thus <03541>, The speckled <05348> shall be thy wages <07939>; then all <03605> the cattle <06629> bare <03205> speckled <05348>: and if <0518> he said <0559> thus <03541>, The ringstraked <06124> shall be thy hire <07937>; then bare <03205> all <03605> the cattle <06629> ringstraked <06124>.
  • 9 Thus God <0430> hath taken <05337> away the cattle <04735> of your father <01>, and given <05414> [them] to me.
  • 10 And it came <01961> to pass at the time <06256> that the cattle <06629> conceived <03179>, that I lifted <05375> up mine eyes <05869>, and saw <07200> in a dream <02472>, and, behold <02009>, the rams <06260> which leaped <05927> upon the cattle <06629> [were] ringstraked <06124>, speckled <05348>, and grisled <01261>.
  • 11 And the angel <04397> of God <0430> spake <0559> unto me in a dream <02472>, [saying], Jacob <03290>: And I said <0559>, Here <02009> [am] I.
  • 12 And he said <0559>, Lift <05375> up now <04994> thine eyes <05869>, and see <07200>, all <03605> the rams <06260> which leap <05927> upon the cattle <06629> [are] ringstraked <06124>, speckled <05348>, and grisled <01261>: for I have seen <07200> all <03605> that Laban <03837> doeth <06213> unto thee.
  • 13 I [am] the God <0410> of Bethel <01008>, where <0834> thou anointedst <04886> the pillar <04676>, [and] where <0834> thou vowedst <05087> a vow <05088> unto me: now <06258> arise <06965>, get <03318> thee out from this <02063> land <0776>, and return <07725> unto the land <0776> of thy kindred <04138>.
  • 14 And Rachel <07354> and Leah <03812> answered <06030> and said <0559> unto him, [Is there] yet <05750> any portion <02506> or inheritance <05159> for us in our father's <01> house <01004>?
  • 15 Are we not counted <02803> of him strangers <05237>? for he hath sold <04376> us, and hath quite devoured <0398> also <01571> our money <03701>.
  • 16 For all <03605> the riches <06239> which <0834> God <0430> hath taken <05337> from our father <01>, that [is] ours, and our children's <01121>: now <06258> then, whatsoever God <0430> hath said <0559> unto thee, do <06213>.
  • 17. Then Jacob <03290> rose <06965> up, and set <05375> his sons <01121> and his wives <0802> upon camels <01581>;
  • 18 And he carried <05090> away all <03605> his cattle <04735>, and all <03605> his goods <07399> which <0834> he had gotten <07408>, the cattle <04735> of his getting <07075>, which <0834> he had gotten <07408> in Padanaram <06307>, for to go <0935> to Isaac <03327> his father <01> in the land <0776> of Canaan <03667>.
  • 19 And Laban <03837> went <01980> to shear <01494> his sheep <06629>: and Rachel <07354> had stolen <01589> the images <08655> that [were] her father's <01>.
  • 20 And Jacob <03290> stole <01589> away unawares to Laban <03837> the Syrian <0761>, in that he told <05046> him not that he fled <01272>.
  • 21 So he fled <01272> with all <03605> that he had; and he rose <06965> up, and passed <05674> over <05674> the river <05104>, and set <07760> his face <06440> [toward] the mount <02022> Gilead <01568>.
  • 22 And it was told <05046> Laban <03837> on the third <07992> day <03117> that Jacob <03290> was fled <01272>.
  • 23 And he took <03947> his brethren <0251> with him, and pursued <07291> after <0310> him seven <07651> days <03117>' journey <01870>; and they overtook <01692> him in the mount <02022> Gilead <01568>.
  • 24 And God <0430> came <0935> to Laban <03837> the Syrian <0761> in a dream <02472> by night <03915>, and said <0559> unto him, Take heed <08104> that thou speak <01696> not to Jacob <03290> either good <02896> or <05704> bad <07451>.
  • 25. Then Laban <03837> overtook <05381> Jacob <03290>. Now Jacob <03290> had pitched <08628> his tent <0168> in the mount <02022>: and Laban <03837> with his brethren <0251> pitched <08628> in the mount <02022> of Gilead <01568>.
  • 26 And Laban <03837> said <0559> to Jacob <03290>, What <04100> hast thou done <06213>, that thou hast stolen <01589> away unawares to me, and carried <05090> away my daughters <01363>, as captives <07617> [taken] with the sword <02719>?
  • 27 Wherefore <04100> didst thou flee <01272> away secretly <02244>, and steal <01589> away from me; and didst not tell <05046> me, that I might have sent <07971> thee away with mirth <08057>, and with songs <07892>, with tabret <08596>, and with harp <03658>?
  • 28 And hast not suffered <05203> me to kiss <05401> my sons <01121> and my daughters <01363>? thou hast now <06258> done foolishly <05528> in [so] doing <06213>.
  • 29 It is in the power <0410> of my hand <03027> to do <06213> you hurt <07451>: but the God <0430> of your father <01> spake <0559> unto me yesternight <0570>, saying <0559>, Take thou heed <08104> that thou speak <01696> not to Jacob <03290> either good <02896> or <05704> bad <07451>.
  • 30 And now <06258>, [though] thou wouldest needs be gone <01980>, because <03588> thou sore longedst <03700> after thy father's <01> house <01004>, [yet] wherefore <04100> hast thou stolen <01589> my gods <0430>?
  • 31 And Jacob <03290> answered <06030> and said <0559> to Laban <03837>, Because <03588> I was afraid <03372>: for I said <0559>, Peradventure <06435> thou wouldest take <01497> by force <01497> thy daughters <01363> from me.
  • 32 With whomsoever <0834> thou findest <04672> thy gods <0430>, let him not live <02421>: before <05048> our brethren <0251> discern <05234> thou what <04100> [is] thine with me, and take <03947> [it] to thee. For Jacob <03290> knew <03045> not that Rachel <07354> had stolen <01589> them.
  • 33 And Laban <03837> went <0935> into Jacob's <03290> tent <0168>, and into Leah's <03812> tent <0168>, and into the two <08147> maidservants <0519>' tents <0168>; but he found <04672> [them] not. Then went <03318> he out of Leah's <03812> tent <0168>, and entered <0935> into Rachel's <07354> tent <0168>.
  • 34 Now Rachel <07354> had taken <03947> the images <08655>, and put <07760> them in the camel's <01581> furniture <03733>, and sat <03427> upon them. And Laban <03837> searched <04959> all <03605> the tent <0168>, but found <04672> [them] not.
  • 35 And she said <0559> to her father <01>, Let it not displease <02734> my lord <0113> that I cannot rise <06965> up before <06440> thee; for the custom <01870> of women <0802> [is] upon me. And he searched <02664>, but found <04672> not the images <08655>.
  • 36. And Jacob <03290> was wroth <02734>, and chode <07378> with Laban <03837>: and Jacob <03290> answered <06030> and said <0559> to Laban <03837>, What <04100> [is] my trespass <06588>? what <04100> [is] my sin <02403>, that thou hast so hotly <01814> pursued <01814> after <0310> me?
  • 37 Whereas <03588> thou hast searched <04959> all <03605> my stuff <03627>, what <04100> hast thou found <04672> of all <03605> thy household <01004> stuff <03627>? set <07760> [it] here <03541> before <05048> my brethren <0251> and thy brethren <0251>, that they may judge <03198> betwixt <0996> us both <08147>.
  • 38 This <02088> twenty <06242> years <08141> [have] I [been] with thee; thy ewes <07353> and thy she goats <05795> have not cast <07921> their young, and the rams <0352> of thy flock <06629> have I not eaten <0398>.
  • 39 That which was torn <02966> [of beasts <02966>] I brought <0935> not unto thee; I bare <02308> the loss <02398> of it; of my hand <03027> didst thou require <01245> it, [whether] stolen <01589> by day <03117>, or stolen <01589> by night <03915>.
  • 40 [Thus] I was; in the day <03117> the drought <02721> consumed <0398> me, and the frost <07140> by night <03915>; and my sleep <08142> departed <05074> from mine eyes <05869>.
  • 41 Thus <02088> have I been twenty <06242> years <08141> in thy house <01004>; I served <05647> thee fourteen years <08141> for thy two <08147> daughters <01363>, and six <08337> years <08141> for thy cattle <06629>: and thou hast changed <02498> my wages <04909> ten <06235> times <04489>.
  • 42 Except <03884> the God <0430> of my father <01>, the God <0430> of Abraham <085>, and the fear <06343> of Isaac <03327>, had been <01961> with me, surely <03588> thou hadst sent <07971> me away now <06258> empty <07387>. God <0430> hath seen <07200> mine affliction <06040> and the labour <03018> of my hands <03709>, and rebuked <03198> [thee] yesternight <0570>.
  • 43. And Laban <03837> answered <06030> and said <0559> unto Jacob <03290>, [These] daughters <01363> [are] my daughters <01363>, and [these] children <01121> [are] my children <01121>, and [these] cattle <06629> [are] my cattle <06629>, and all <03605> that thou seest <07200> [is] mine: and what <04100> can I do <06213> this day <03117> unto these my daughters <01363>, or <0176> unto their children <01121> which <0834> they have born <03205>?
  • 44 Now <06258> therefore come <03212> thou, let us make <03772> a covenant <01285>, I and thou; and let it be for a witness <05707> between <0996> me and thee.
  • 45 And Jacob <03290> took <03947> a stone <068>, and set <07311> it up [for] a pillar <04676>.
  • 46 And Jacob <03290> said <0559> unto his brethren <0251>, Gather <03950> stones <068>; and they took <03947> stones <068>, and made <06213> an heap <01530>: and they did eat <0398> there <08033> upon the heap <01530>.
  • 47 And Laban <03837> called <07121> it Jegarsahadutha <03026>: but Jacob <03290> called <07121> it Galeed <01567>.
  • 48 And Laban <03837> said <0559>, This <02088> heap <01530> [is] a witness <05707> between <0996> me and thee this day <03117>. Therefore was the name <08034> of it called <07121> Galeed <01567>;
  • 49 And Mizpah <04709>; for he said <0559>, The LORD <03068> watch <06822> between <0996> me and thee, when <03588> we are absent <05641> one <0376> from another <07453>.
  • 50 If <0518> thou shalt afflict <06031> my daughters <01363>, or if <0518> thou shalt take <03947> [other] wives <0802> beside <05921> my daughters <01363>, no <03808> man <0376> [is] with us; see <07200>, God <0430> [is] witness <05707> betwixt <0996> me and thee.
  • 51 And Laban <03837> said <0559> to Jacob <03290>, Behold <02009> this <02088> heap <01530>, and behold <02009> [this] pillar <04676>, which <0834> I have cast <03384> betwixt <0996> me and thee;
  • 52 This <02088> heap <01530> [be] witness <05707>, and [this <02088>] pillar <04676> [be] witness <05711>, that I will not pass <05674> over <05674> this <02088> heap <01530> to thee, and that thou shalt not pass <05674> over <05674> this <02088> heap <01530> and this <02063> pillar <04676> unto me, for harm <07451>.
  • 53 The God <0430> of Abraham <085>, and the God <0430> of Nahor <05152>, the God <0430> of their father <01>, judge <08199> betwixt <0996> us. And Jacob <03290> sware <07650> by the fear <06343> of his father <01> Isaac <03327>.
  • 54 Then Jacob <03290> offered <02076> sacrifice <02077> upon the mount <02022>, and called <07121> his brethren <0251> to eat <0398> bread <03899>: and they did eat <0398> bread <03899>, and tarried <03885> all <03885> night in the mount <02022>.
  • 55 And early <07925> in the morning <01242> Laban <03837> rose <07925> up, and kissed <05401> his sons <01121> and his daughters <01363>, and blessed <01288> them: and Laban <03837> departed <03212>, and returned <07725> unto his place <04725>.
  • Genesis 32
  • 1. And Jacob <03290> went <01980> on his way <01870>, and the angels <04397> of God <0430> met <06293> him.
  • 2 And when <0834> Jacob <03290> saw <07200> them, he said <0559>, This <02088> [is] God's <0430> host <04264>: and he called <07121> the name <08034> of that place <04725> Mahanaim <04266>.
  • 3. And Jacob <03290> sent <07971> messengers <04397> before <06440> him to Esau <06215> his brother <0251> unto the land <0776> of Seir <08165>, the country <07704> of Edom <0123>.
  • 4 And he commanded <06680> them, saying <0559>, Thus <03541> shall ye speak <0559> unto my lord <0113> Esau <06215>; Thy servant <05650> Jacob <03290> saith <0559> thus <03541>, I have sojourned <01481> with Laban <03837>, and stayed <0309> there until <05704> now <06258>:
  • 5 And I have <01961> oxen <07794>, and asses <02543>, flocks <06629>, and menservants <05650>, and womenservants <08198>: and I have <01961> sent <07971> to tell <05046> my lord <0113>, that I may find <04672> grace <02580> in thy sight <05869>.
  • 6 And the messengers <04397> returned <07725> to Jacob <03290>, saying <0559>, We came <0935> to thy brother <0251> Esau <06215>, and also <01571> he cometh <01980> to meet <07125> thee, and four <0702> hundred <03967> men <0376> with him.
  • 7 Then Jacob <03290> was greatly <03966> afraid <03372> and distressed <03334>: and he divided <02673> the people <05971> that [was] with him, and the flocks <06629>, and herds <01241>, and the camels <01581>, into two <08147> bands <04264>;
  • 8 And said <0559>, If <0518> Esau <06215> come <0935> to the one <0259> company <04264>, and smite <05221> it, then the other company <04264> which is left <07604> shall escape <06413>.
  • 9. And Jacob <03290> said <0559>, O God <0430> of my father <01> Abraham <085>, and God <0430> of my father <01> Isaac <03327>, the LORD <03068> which saidst <0559> unto me, Return <07725> unto thy country <0776>, and to thy kindred <04138>, and I will deal well <03190> with thee:
  • 10 I am not worthy <06994> of the least <06994> of all <03605> the mercies <02617>, and of all <03605> the truth <0571>, which <0834> thou hast shewed <06213> unto thy servant <05650>; for with my staff <04731> I passed <05674> over <05674> this <02088> Jordan <03383>; and now <06258> I am become <01961> two <08147> bands <04264>.
  • 11 Deliver <05337> me, I pray <04994> thee, from the hand <03027> of my brother <0251>, from the hand <03027> of Esau <06215>: for I fear <03373> him, lest <06435> he will come <0935> and smite <05221> me, [and] the mother <0517> with the children <01121>.
  • 12 And thou saidst <0559>, I will surely do thee good <03190>, and make <07760> thy seed <02233> as the sand <02344> of the sea <03220>, which <0834> cannot <03808> be numbered <05608> for multitude <07230>.
  • 13. And he lodged <03885> there <08033> that same <01931> night <03915>; and took <03947> of that which came <0935> to his hand <03027> a present <04503> for Esau <06215> his brother <0251>;
  • 14 Two hundred <03967> she goats <05795>, and twenty <06242> he goats <08495>, two hundred <03967> ewes <07353>, and twenty <06242> rams <0352>,
  • 15 Thirty <07970> milch <03243> camels <01581> with their colts <01121>, forty <0705> kine <06510>, and ten <06235> bulls <06499>, twenty <06242> she asses <0860>, and ten <06235> foals <05895>.
  • 16 And he delivered <05414> [them] into the hand <03027> of his servants <05650>, every drove <05739> by themselves <0905>; and said <0559> unto his servants <05650>, Pass <05674> over <05674> before <06440> me, and put <07760> a space <07305> betwixt <0996> drove <05739> and drove <05739>.
  • 17 And he commanded <06680> the foremost <07223>, saying <0559>, When <03588> Esau <06215> my brother <0251> meeteth <06298> thee, and asketh <07592> thee, saying <0559>, Whose <04310> [art] thou? and whither <0575> goest <03212> thou? and whose <04310> [are] these <0428> before <06440> thee?
  • 18 Then thou shalt say <0559>, [They be] thy servant <05650> Jacob's <03290>; it [is] a present <04503> sent <07971> unto my lord <0113> Esau <06215>: and, behold <02009>, also <01571> he [is] behind <0310> us.
  • 19 And so <01571> commanded <06680> he the second <08145>, and the third <07992>, and all <03605> that followed the droves <05739>, saying <0559>, On this <02088> manner <01697> shall ye speak <01696> unto Esau <06215>, when ye find <04672> him.
  • 20 And say <0559> ye moreover <01571>, Behold <02009>, thy servant <05650> Jacob <03290> [is] behind <0310> us. For he said <0559>, I will appease <06440> him with the present <04503> that goeth <01980> before <06440> me, and afterward I will see <07200> his face <06440>; peradventure <0194> he will accept <05375> of me.
  • 21 So went <05674> the present <04503> over <05674> before him: and himself <01931> lodged <03885> that night <03915> in the company <04264>.
  • 22 And he rose <06965> up that night <03915>, and took <03947> his two <08147> wives <0802>, and his two <08147> womenservants <08198>, and his eleven sons <03206>, and passed <05674> over <05674> the ford <04569> Jabbok <02999>.
  • 23 And he took <03947> them, and sent <05674> them over <05674> the brook <05158>, and sent <05674> over <05674> that he had.
  • 24. And Jacob <03290> was left <03498> alone <0905>; and there wrestled <079> a man <0376> with him until <05704> the breaking <05927> of the day <07837>.
  • 25 And when he saw <07200> that he prevailed <03201> not against him, he touched <05060> the hollow <03709> of his thigh <03409>; and the hollow <03709> of Jacob's <03290> thigh <03409> was out of joint <03363>, as he wrestled <079> with him.
  • 26 And he said <0559>, Let me go <07971>, for the day <07837> breaketh <05927>. And he said <0559>, I will not let thee go <07971>, except thou bless <01288> me.
  • 27 And he said <0559> unto him, What <04100> [is] thy name <08034>? And he said <0559>, Jacob <03290>.

  • 29 And Jacob <03290> asked <07592> [him], and said <0559>, Tell <05046> [me], I pray <04994> thee, thy name <08034>. And he said <0559>, Wherefore <04100> [is] it [that] thou dost ask <07592> after my name <08034>? And he blessed <01288> him there <08033>.
  • 30 And Jacob <03290> called <07121> the name <08034> of the place <04725> Peniel <06439>: for I have seen <07200> God <0430> face <06440> to face <06440>, and my life <05315> is preserved <05337>.
  • 31 And as he passed <05674> over <05674> Penuel <06439> the sun <08121> rose <02224> upon him, and he halted <06761> upon his thigh <03409>.

And he divided <02673> the children <03206> unto Leah <03812>, and unto Rachel <07354>, and unto the two <08147> handmaids <08198>.
  • 2 And he put <07760> the handmaids <08198> and their children <03206> foremost <07223>, and Leah <03812> and her children <03206> after <0314>, and Rachel <07354> and Joseph <03130> hindermost <0314>.
  • 3 And he passed <05674> over <05674> before <06440> them, and bowed <07812> himself to the ground <0776> seven <07651> times <06471>, until <05704> he came <05066> near <05066> to his brother <0251>.
  • 4 And Esau <06215> ran <07323> to meet <07125> him, and embraced <02263> him, and fell <05307> on <05921> his neck <06677>, and kissed <05401> him: and they wept <01058>.
  • 5. And he lifted <05375> up his eyes <05869>, and saw <07200> the women <0802> and the children <03206>; and said <0559>, Who <04310> [are] those <0428> with thee? And he said <0559>, The children <03206> which <0834> God <0430> hath graciously <02603> given <02603> thy servant <05650>.
  • 6 Then the handmaidens <08198> came <05066> near <05066>, they and their children <03206>, and they bowed <07812> themselves.

  • 8 And he said <0559>, What <04310> [meanest] thou by all <03605> this <02088> drove <04264> which <0834> I met <06298>? And he said <0559>, [These are] to find <04672> grace <02580> in the sight <05869> of my lord <0113>.

  • 11 Take <03947>, I pray <04994> thee, my blessing <01293> that is brought <0935> to thee; because <03588> God <0430> hath dealt graciously <02603> with me, and because <03588> I have <03426> enough <03605>. And he urged <06484> him, and he took <03947> [it].
  • 12 And he said <0559>, Let us take our journey <05265>, and let us go <03212>, and I will go <03212> before <05048> thee.

  • 15 And Esau <06215> said <0559>, Let me now <04994> leave <03322> with thee [some] of the folk <05971> that [are] with me. And he said <0559>, What <04100> needeth it? let me find <04672> grace <02580> in the sight <05869> of my lord <0113>.

  • 19 And he bought <07069> a parcel <02513> of a field <07704>, where <0834> he had spread <05186> his tent <0168>, at the hand <03027> of the children <01121> of Hamor <02544>, Shechem's <07927> father <01>, for an hundred <03967> pieces of money <07192>.

  • 4 And Shechem <07927> spake <0559> unto his father <01> Hamor <02544>, saying <0559>, Get <03947> me this <02063> damsel <03207> to wife <0802>.
  • 5 And Jacob <03290> heard <08085> that he had defiled <02930> Dinah <01783> his daughter <01323>: now his sons <01121> were with his cattle <04735> in the field <07704>: and Jacob <03290> held <02790> his peace <02790> until <05704> they were come <0935>.
  • 6. And Hamor <02544> the father <01> of Shechem <07927> went <03318> out unto Jacob <03290> to commune <01696> with him.
  • 7 And the sons <01121> of Jacob <03290> came <0935> out of the field <07704> when they heard <08085> [it]: and the men <0582> were grieved <06087>, and they were very <03966> wroth <02734>, because <03588> he had wrought <06213> folly <05039> in Israel <03478> in lying <07901> with Jacob's <03290> daughter <01323>; which <03651> thing <03651> ought not to be done <06213>.
  • 8 And Hamor <02544> communed <01696> with them, saying <0559>, The soul <05315> of my son <01121> Shechem <07927> longeth <02836> for your daughter <01323>: I pray <04994> you give <05414> her him to wife <0802>.
  • 9 And make ye marriages <02859> with us, [and] give <05414> your daughters <01363> unto us, and take <03947> our daughters <01363> unto you.

  • 11 And Shechem <07927> said <0559> unto her father <01> and unto her brethren <0251>, Let me find <04672> grace <02580> in your eyes <05869>, and what <0834> ye shall say <0559> unto me I will give <05414>.
  • 12 Ask me never so much dowry <04119> and gift <04976>, and I will give <05414> according as ye shall say <0559> unto me: but give <05414> me the damsel <05291> to wife <0802>.
  • 13 And the sons <01121> of Jacob <03290> answered <06030> Shechem <07927> and Hamor <02544> his father <01> deceitfully <04820>, and said <01696>, because <0834> he had defiled <02930> Dinah <01783> their sister <0269>:

  • 17 But if <0518> ye will not hearken <08085> unto us, to be circumcised <04135>; then will we take <03947> our daughter <01323>, and we will be gone <01980>.

  • 22 Only <0389> herein <02063> will the men <0582> consent <0225> unto us for to dwell <03427> with us, to be one <0259> people <05971>, if <0518> every <03605> male <02145> among us be circumcised <04135>, as they [are] circumcised <04135>.

  • 27 The sons <01121> of Jacob <03290> came <0935> upon the slain <02491>, and spoiled <0962> the city <05892>, because <0834> they had defiled <02930> their sister <0269>.
  • 28 They took <03947> their sheep <06629>, and their oxen <01241>, and their asses <02543>, and that which <0834> [was] in the city <05892>, and that which <0834> [was] in the field <07704>,

  • 2 Then Jacob <03290> said <0559> unto his household <01004>, and to all <03605> that [were] with him, Put <05493> away the strange <05236> gods <0430> that [are] among <08432> you, and be clean <02891>, and change <02498> your garments <08071>:
  • 3 And let us arise <06965>, and go <05927> up to Bethel <01008>; and I will make <06213> there <08033> an altar <04196> unto God <0410>, who answered <06030> me in the day <03117> of my distress <06869>, and was with me in the way <01870> which <0834> I went <01980>.
  • 4 And they gave <05414> unto Jacob <03290> all <03605> the strange <05236> gods <0430> which <0834> [were] in their hand <03027>, and [all their] earrings <05141> which <0834> [were] in their ears <0241>; and Jacob <03290> hid <02934> them under <08478> the oak <0424> which <0834> [was] by Shechem <07927>.
  • 5 And they journeyed <05265>: and the terror <02847> of God <0430> was upon the cities <05892> that [were] round <05439> about them, and they did not pursue <07291> after <0310> the sons <01121> of Jacob <03290>.
  • 6. So Jacob <03290> came <0935> to Luz <03870>, which <0834> [is] in the land <0776> of Canaan <03667>, that [is], Bethel <01008>, he and all <03605> the people <05971> that [were] with him.
  • 7 And he built <01129> there <08033> an altar <04196>, and called <07121> the place <04725> Elbethel <0416>: because <03588> there <08033> God <0430> appeared <01540> unto him, when he fled <01272> from the face <06440> of his brother <0251>.

  • 16. And they journeyed <05265> from Bethel <01008>; and there was but a little <03530> way <0776> to come <0935> to Ephrath <0672>: and Rachel <07354> travailed <03205>, and she had hard <07185> labour <03205>.

  • 3 And he put <05414> them in ward <04929> in the house <01004> of the captain <08269> of the guard <02876>, into <0413> the prison, the place <04725> where <0834> Joseph <03130> [was] bound <0631>.
  • 4 And the captain <08269> of the guard <02876> charged <06485> Joseph <03130> with them, and he served <08334> them: and they continued <01961> a season <03117> in ward <04929>.
  • 5. And they dreamed <02492> a dream <02472> both <08147> of them, each man <0376> his dream <02472> in one <0259> night <03915>, each man <0376> according to the interpretation <06623> of his dream <02472>, the butler <04945> and the baker <0644> of the king <04428> of Egypt <04714>, which <0834> [were] bound <0631> in the prison.
  • 6 And Joseph <03130> came <0935> in unto them in the morning <01242>, and looked <07200> upon them, and, behold <02009>, they [were] sad <02196>.
  • 7 And he asked <07592> Pharaoh's <06547> officers <05631> that [were] with him in the ward <04929> of his lord's <0113> house <01004>, saying <0559>, Wherefore <04069> look <06440> ye [so] sadly <07451> to day <03117>?
  • 8 And they said <0559> unto him, We have dreamed <02492> a dream <02472>, and [there is] no <0369> interpreter <06622> of it. And Joseph <03130> said <0559> unto them, [Do] not interpretations <06623> [belong] to God <0430>? tell <05608> me [them], I pray <04994> you.
  • 9 And the chief <08269> butler <04945> told <05608> his dream <02472> to Joseph <03130>, and said <0559> to him, In my dream <02472>, behold <02009>, a vine <01612> [was] before <06440> me;
  • 10 And in the vine <01612> [were] three <07969> branches <08299>: and it [was] as though it budded <06524>, [and] her blossoms <05322> shot <05927> forth; and the clusters <0811> thereof brought <01310> forth <01310> ripe <01310> grapes <06025>:
  • 11 And Pharaoh's <06547> cup <03563> [was] in my hand <03027>: and I took <03947> the grapes <06025>, and pressed <07818> them into <0413> Pharaoh's <06547> cup <03563>, and I gave <05414> the cup <03563> into <05921> Pharaoh's <06547> hand <03709>.
  • 12 And Joseph <03130> said <0559> unto him, This <02088> [is] the interpretation <06623> of it: The three <07969> branches <08299> [are] three <07969> days <03117>:
  • 13 Yet <05750> within three <07969> days <03117> shall Pharaoh <06547> lift <05375> up thine head <07218>, and restore <07725> thee unto thy place <03653>: and thou shalt deliver <05414> Pharaoh's <06547> cup <03563> into his hand <03027>, after the former <07223> manner <04941> when <0834> thou wast <01961> his butler <04945>.
  • 14 But think <02142> on me when <0834> it shall be well <03190> with thee, and shew <06213> kindness <02617>, I pray <04994> thee, unto me, and make mention <02142> of me unto Pharaoh <06547>, and bring <03318> me out of this <02088> house <01004>:
  • 15 For indeed I was stolen <01589> away out of the land <0776> of the Hebrews <05680>: and here <06311> also <01571> have I done <06213> nothing that they should put <07760> me into the dungeon <0953>.
  • 16 When the chief <08269> baker <0644> saw <07200> that the interpretation <06623> was good <02896>, he said <0559> unto Joseph <03130>, I also <0637> [was] in my dream <02472>, and, behold <02009>, [I had] three <07969> white <02751> baskets <05536> on <05921> my head <07218>:
  • 17 And in the uppermost <05945> basket <05536> [there was] of all <03605> manner of bakemeats for Pharaoh <06547>; and the birds <05775> did eat <0398> them out of the basket <05536> upon my head <07218>.
  • 18 And Joseph <03130> answered <06030> and said <0559>, This <02088> [is] the interpretation <06623> thereof: The three <07969> baskets <05536> [are] three <07969> days <03117>:
  • 19 Yet <05750> within three <07969> days <03117> shall Pharaoh <06547> lift <05375> up thy head <07218> from off <05921> thee, and shall hang <08518> thee on <05921> a tree <06086>; and the birds <05775> shall eat <0398> thy flesh <01320> from off <05921> thee.
  • 20. And it came <01961> to pass the third <07992> day <03117>, [which was] Pharaoh's <06547> birthday, that he made <06213> a feast <04960> unto all <03605> his servants <05650>: and he lifted <05375> up the head <07218> of the chief <08269> butler <04945> and of the chief <08269> baker <0644> among <08432> his servants <05650>.
  • 21 And he restored <07725> the chief <08269> butler <04945> unto his butlership <04945> again <07725>; and he gave <05414> the cup <03563> into <05921> Pharaoh's <06547> hand <03709>:
  • 22 But he hanged <08518> the chief <08269> baker <0644>: as Joseph <03130> had interpreted <06622> to them.
  • 23 Yet did not the chief <08269> butler <04945> remember <02142> Joseph <03130>, but forgat <07911> him.
  • Genesis 41
  • 1. And it came <01961> to pass at the end <07093> of two full <03117> years <08141>, that Pharaoh <06547> dreamed <02492>: and, behold <02009>, he stood <05975> by the river <02975>.
  • 2 And, behold <02009>, there came <05927> up out of the river <02975> seven <07651> well <03303> favoured <04758> kine <06510> and fatfleshed <01277>; and they fed <07462> in a meadow <0260>.
  • 3 And, behold <02009>, seven <07651> other <0312> kine <06510> came <05927> up after <0310> them out of the river <02975>, ill <07451> favoured <04758> and leanfleshed; and stood <05975> by the [other] kine <06510> upon the brink <08193> of the river <02975>.
  • 4 And the ill <07451> favoured <04758> and leanfleshed kine <06510> did eat <0398> up the seven <07651> well <03303> favoured <04758> and fat <01277> kine <06510>. So Pharaoh <06547> awoke <03364>.
  • 5 And he slept <03462> and dreamed <02492> the second <08145> time: and, behold <02009>, seven <07651> ears <07641> of corn came <05927> up upon one <0259> stalk <07070>, rank <01277> and good <02896>.
  • 6 And, behold <02009>, seven <07651> thin <01851> ears <07641> and blasted <07710> with the east <06921> wind sprung <06779> up after <0310> them.
  • 7 And the seven thin <01851> ears <07641> devoured <01104> the seven <07651> rank <01277> and full <04392> ears <07641>. And Pharaoh <06547> awoke <03364>, and, behold <02009>, [it was] a dream <02472>.
  • 8 And it came <01961> to pass in the morning <01242> that his spirit <07307> was troubled <06470>; and he sent <07971> and called <07121> for all <03605> the magicians <02748> of Egypt <04714>, and all <03605> the wise <02450> men thereof: and Pharaoh <06547> told <05608> them his dream <02472>; but [there was] none <0369> that could interpret <06622> them unto Pharaoh <06547>.
  • 9. Then spake <01696> the chief <08269> butler <04945> unto Pharaoh <06547>, saying <0559>, I do remember <02142> my faults <02399> this day <03117>:
  • 10 Pharaoh <06547> was wroth <07107> with his servants <05650>, and put <05414> me in ward <04929> in the captain <08269> of the guard's <02876> house <01004>, [both] me and the chief <08269> baker <0644>:
  • 11 And we dreamed <02492> a dream <02472> in one <0259> night <03915>, I and he; we dreamed <02492> each man <0376> according to the interpretation <06623> of his dream <02472>.
  • 12 And [there <08033> was] there <08033> with us a young <05288> man <0376>, an Hebrew <05680>, servant <05650> to the captain <08269> of the guard <02876>; and we told <05608> him, and he interpreted <06622> to us our dreams <02472>; to each man <0376> according to his dream <02472> he did interpret <06622>.
  • 13 And it came <01961> to pass, as he interpreted <06622> to us, so <03651> it was; me he restored <07725> unto mine office <03653>, and him he hanged <08518>.
  • 14 Then Pharaoh <06547> sent <07971> and called <07121> Joseph <03130>, and they brought <07323> him hastily <07323> out of the dungeon <0953>: and he shaved <01548> [himself], and changed <02498> his raiment <08071>, and came <0935> in unto Pharaoh <06547>.
  • 15 And Pharaoh <06547> said <0559> unto Joseph <03130>, I have dreamed <02492> a dream <02472>, and [there is] none <0369> that can interpret <06622> it: and I have heard <08085> say <0559> of thee, [that] thou canst understand <08085> a dream <02472> to interpret <06622> it.
  • 16 And Joseph <03130> answered <06030> Pharaoh <06547>, saying <0559>, [It is] not in me: God <0430> shall give Pharaoh <06547> an answer <06030> of peace <07965>.
  • 17. And Pharaoh <06547> said <01696> unto Joseph <03130>, In my dream <02472>, behold <02009>, I stood <05975> upon the bank <08193> of the river <02975>:
  • 18 And, behold <02009>, there came <05927> up out of the river <02975> seven <07651> kine <06510>, fatfleshed <01277> and well <03303> favoured <08389>; and they fed <07462> in a meadow <0260>:
  • 19 And, behold <02009>, seven <07651> other <0312> kine <06510> came <05927> up after <0310> them, poor <01800> and very <03966> ill <07451> favoured <08389> and leanfleshed <07534>, such <02007> as I never <03808> saw <07200> in all <03605> the land <0776> of Egypt <04714> for badness <07455>:
  • 20 And the lean <07534> and the ill <07451> favoured kine <06510> did eat <0398> up the first <07223> seven <07651> fat <01277> kine <06510>:
  • 21 And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known <03045> that they had eaten them; but they [were] still ill <07451> favoured, as at the beginning <08462>. So I awoke <03364>.
  • 22 And I saw <07200> in my dream <02472>, and, behold <02009>, seven <07651> ears <07641> came <05927> up in one <0259> stalk <07070>, full <04392> and good <02896>:
  • 23 And, behold <02009>, seven <07651> ears <07641>, withered <06798>, thin <01851>, [and] blasted <07710> with the east <06921> wind, sprung <06779> up after <0310> them:
  • 24 And the thin <01851> ears <07641> devoured <01104> the seven <07651> good <02896> ears <07641>: and I told <0559> [this] unto the magicians <02748>; but [there was] none <0369> that could declare <05046> [it] to me.
  • 25 And Joseph <03130> said <0559> unto Pharaoh <06547>, The dream <02472> of Pharaoh <06547> [is] one <0259>: God <0430> hath shewed <05046> Pharaoh <06547> what he [is] about to do <06213>.
  • 26 The seven <07651> good <02896> kine <06510> [are] seven <07651> years <08141>; and the seven <07651> good <02896> ears <07641> [are] seven <07651> years <08141>: the dream <02472> [is] one <0259>.
  • 27 And the seven <07651> thin <07534> and ill <07451> favoured kine <06510> that came <05927> up after <0310> them [are] seven <07651> years <08141>; and the seven <07651> empty <07386> ears <07641> blasted <07710> with the east <06921> wind shall be seven <07651> years <08141> of famine <07458>.
  • 28 This [is] the thing <01697> which <0834> I have spoken <01696> unto Pharaoh <06547>: What <0834> God <0430> [is] about to do <06213> he sheweth <07200> unto Pharaoh <06547>.
  • 29 Behold <02009>, there come <0935> seven <07651> years <08141> of great <01419> plenty <07647> throughout all <03605> the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>:
  • 30 And there shall arise <06965> after <0310> them seven <07651> years <08141> of famine <07458>; and all <03605> the plenty <07647> shall be forgotten <07911> in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>; and the famine <07458> shall consume <03615> the land <0776>;
  • 31 And the plenty <07647> shall not be known <03045> in the land <0776> by reason <06440> of that famine <07458> following; for it [shall be] very <03966> grievous <03515>.
  • 32 And for that the dream <02472> was doubled <08138> unto Pharaoh <06547> twice <06471>; [it is] because <03588> the thing <01697> [is] established <03559> by God <0430>, and God <0430> will shortly <04116> bring <06213> it to pass <06213>.
  • 33. Now <06258> therefore let Pharaoh <06547> look <07200> out a man <0376> discreet <0995> and wise <02450>, and set <07896> him over <05921> the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>.
  • 34 Let Pharaoh <06547> do <06213> [this], and let him appoint <06485> officers <06496> over <05921> the land <0776>, and take up the fifth <02567> part of the land <0776> of Egypt <04714> in the seven <07651> plenteous <07647> years <08141>.
  • 35 And let them gather <06908> all <03605> the food <0400> of those <0428> good <02896> years <08141> that come <0935>, and lay <06651> up corn <01250> under <08478> the hand <03027> of Pharaoh <06547>, and let them keep <08104> food <0400> in the cities <05892>.
  • 36 And that food <0400> shall be for store <06487> to the land <0776> against the seven <07651> years <08141> of famine <07458>, which <0834> shall be in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>; that the land <0776> perish <03772> not through the famine <07458>.
  • 37 And the thing <01697> was good <03190> in the eyes <05869> of Pharaoh <06547>, and in the eyes <05869> of all <03605> his servants <05650>.
  • 38 And Pharaoh <06547> said <0559> unto his servants <05650>, Can we find <04672> [such a one] as this <02088> [is], a man <0376> in whom <0834> the Spirit <07307> of God <0430> [is]?
  • 39 And Pharaoh <06547> said <0559> unto Joseph <03130>, Forasmuch <0310> as God <0430> hath shewed <03045> thee all <03605> this <02063>, [there is] none <0369> so discreet <0995> and wise <02450> as thou [art]:
  • 40 Thou shalt be over <05921> my house <01004>, and according <05921> unto thy word <06310> shall all <03605> my people <05971> be ruled <05401>: only <07535> in the throne <03678> will I be greater <01431> than thou.
  • 41 And Pharaoh <06547> said <0559> unto Joseph <03130>, See <07200>, I have set <05414> thee over <05921> all <03605> the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>.
  • 42 And Pharaoh <06547> took <05493> off his ring <02885> from his hand <03027>, and put <05414> it upon Joseph's <03130> hand <03027>, and arrayed <03847> him in vestures <0899> of fine linen <08336>, and put <07760> a gold <02091> chain <07242> about <05921> his neck <06677>;
  • 43 And he made him to ride <07392> in the second <04932> chariot <04818> which <0834> he had; and they cried <07121> before <06440> him, Bow <086> the knee: and he made <05414> him [ruler] over <05921> all <03605> the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>.
  • 44 And Pharaoh <06547> said <0559> unto Joseph <03130>, I [am] Pharaoh <06547>, and without <01107> thee shall no <03808> man <0376> lift <07311> up his hand <03027> or foot <07272> in all <03605> the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>.
  • 45 And Pharaoh <06547> called <07121> Joseph's <03130> name <08034> Zaphnathpaaneah; and he gave <05414> him to wife <0802> Asenath <0621> the daughter <01323> of Potipherah <06319> priest <03548> of On <0204>. And Joseph <03130> went <03318> out over <05921> [all] the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>.
  • 46. And Joseph <03130> [was] thirty <07970> years <08141> old <01121> when he stood <05975> before <06440> Pharaoh <06547> king <04428> of Egypt <04714>. And Joseph <03130> went <03318> out from the presence <06440> of Pharaoh <06547>, and went <05674> throughout all <03605> the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>.
  • 47 And in the seven <07651> plenteous <07647> years <08141> the earth <0776> brought <06213> forth <06213> by handfuls <07062>.
  • 48 And he gathered <06908> up all <03605> the food <0400> of the seven <07651> years <08141>, which <0834> were in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>, and laid <05414> up the food <0400> in the cities <05892>: the food <0400> of the field <07704>, which <0834> [was] round <05439> about every city <05892>, laid <05414> he up in the same.
  • 49 And Joseph <03130> gathered <06651> corn <01250> as the sand <02344> of the sea <03220>, very <03966> much <07235>, until <05704> he left <02308> numbering <05608>; for [it was] without <0369> number <04557>.
  • 50 And unto Joseph <03130> were born <03205> two <08147> sons <01121> before <02962> the years <08141> of famine <07458> came <0935>, which <0834> Asenath <0621> the daughter <01323> of Potipherah <06319> priest <03548> of On <0204> bare <03205> unto him.
  • 51 And Joseph <03130> called <07121> the name <08034> of the firstborn <01060> Manasseh <04519>: For God <0430>, [said he], hath made me forget <05382> all <03605> my toil <05999>, and all <03605> my father's <01> house <01004>.
  • 52 And the name <08034> of the second <08145> called <07121> he Ephraim <0669>: For God <0430> hath caused me to be fruitful <06509> in the land <0776> of my affliction <06040>.
  • 53 And the seven <07651> years <08141> of plenteousness <07647>, that was in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>, were ended <03615>.

  • 56 And the famine <07458> was over <05921> all <03605> the face <06440> of the earth <0776>: And Joseph <03130> opened <06605> all <03605> the storehouses <0834>, and sold <07666> unto the Egyptians <04714>; and the famine <07458> waxed sore <02388> in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>.
  • 57 And all <03605> countries <0776> came <0935> into Egypt <04714> to Joseph <03130> for to buy <07666> [corn]; because <03588> that the famine <07458> was [so] sore <02388> in all <03605> lands <0776>.

  • 2 And he said <0559>, Behold <02009>, I have heard <08085> that there is corn <07668> in Egypt <04714>: get <03381> you down <03381> thither <08033>, and buy <07666> for us from thence <08033>; that we may live <02421>, and not die <04191>.
  • 3 And Joseph's <03130> ten <06235> brethren <0251> went <03381> down <03381> to buy <07666> corn <01250> in Egypt <04714>.
  • 4 But Benjamin <01144>, Joseph's <03130> brother <0251>, Jacob <03290> sent <07971> not with his brethren <0251>; for he said <0559>, Lest <06435> peradventure mischief <0611> befall <07122> him.
  • 5 And the sons <01121> of Israel <03478> came <0935> to buy <07666> [corn] among <08432> those that came <0935>: for the famine <07458> was in the land <0776> of Canaan <03667>.
  • 6 And Joseph <03130> [was] the governor <07989> over <05921> the land <0776>, [and] he [it was] that sold <07666> to all <03605> the people <05971> of the land <0776>: and Joseph's <03130> brethren <0251> came <0935>, and bowed <07812> down <07812> themselves before him [with] their faces <0639> to the earth <0776>.
  • 7. And Joseph <03130> saw <07200> his brethren <0251>, and he knew <05234> them, but made himself strange <05234> unto them, and spake <01696> roughly <07186> unto them; and he said <0559> unto them, Whence <0370> come <0935> ye? And they said <0559>, From the land <0776> of Canaan <03667> to buy <07666> food <0400>.
  • 8 And Joseph <03130> knew <05234> his brethren <0251>, but they knew <03045> not him.

  • 10 And they said <0559> unto him, Nay <03808>, my lord <0113>, but to buy <07666> food <0400> are thy servants <05650> come <0935>.
  • 11 We [are] all <03605> one <0259> man's <0376> sons <01121>; we [are] true <03651> [men], thy servants <05650> are no <03808> spies <07270>.

  • 14 And Joseph <03130> said <0559> unto them, That [is it] that I spake <01696> unto you, saying <0559>, Ye [are] spies <07270>:
  • 15 Hereby <02063> ye shall be proved <0974>: By the life <02416> of Pharaoh <06547> ye shall not go <03318> forth <03318> hence <02088>, except your youngest <06996> brother <0251> come <0935> hither.

  • 17 And he put <0622> them all <0622> together into <0413> ward <04929> three <07969> days <03117>.
  • 18 And Joseph <03130> said <0559> unto them the third <07992> day <03117>, This <02063> do <06213>, and live <02421>; [for] I fear <03373> God <0430>:
  • 19 If <0518> ye [be] true <03651> [men], let one <0259> of your brethren <0251> be bound <0631> in the house <01004> of your prison <04929>: go <03212> ye, carry <0935> corn <07668> for the famine <07459> of your houses <01004>:
  • 20 But bring <0935> your youngest <06996> brother <0251> unto me; so shall your words <01697> be verified <0539>, and ye shall not die <04191>. And they did <06213> so <03651>.
  • 21. And they said <0559> one <0376> to another <0250>, We [are] verily <061> guilty <0816> concerning <05921> our brother <0251>, in that we saw <07200> the anguish <06869> of his soul <05315>, when he besought <02603> us, and we would not hear <08085>; therefore is this <02063> distress <06869> come <0935> upon us.
  • 22 And Reuben <07205> answered <06030> them, saying <0559>, Spake <0559> I not unto you, saying <0559>, Do not sin <02398> against the child <03206>; and ye would not hear <08085>? therefore <01571>, behold <02009>, also <01571> his blood <01818> is required <01875>.
  • 23 And they knew <03045> not that Joseph <03130> understood <08085> [them]; for he spake unto them by an interpreter <03887>.
  • 24 And he turned <05437> himself about from them, and wept <01058>; and returned <07725> to them again <07725>, and communed <01696> with them, and took <03947> from them Simeon <08095>, and bound <0631> him before their eyes <05869>.
  • 25 Then Joseph <03130> commanded <06680> to fill <04390> their sacks <03672> with corn <01250>, and to restore <07725> every man's <0376> money <03701> into <0413> his sack <08242>, and to give <05414> them provision <06720> for the way <01870>: and thus <03651> did <06213> he unto them.
  • 26 And they laded <05375> their asses <02543> with the corn <07668>, and departed <03212> thence <08033>.
  • 27 And as one <0259> of them opened <06605> his sack <08242> to give <05414> his ass <02543> provender <04554> in the inn <04411>, he espied <07200> his money <03701>; for, behold <02009>, it [was] in his sack's <0572> mouth <06310>.
  • 28 And he said <0559> unto his brethren <0251>, My money <03701> is restored <07725>; and, lo <02009>, [it is] even in my sack <0572>: and their heart <03820> failed <03318> [them], and they were afraid <02729>, saying <0559> one <0376> to another <0250>, What <04100> [is] this <02063> [that] God <0430> hath done <06213> unto us?
  • 29. And they came <0935> unto Jacob <03290> their father <01> unto the land <0776> of Canaan <03667>, and told <05046> him all <03605> that befell <07136> unto them; saying <0559>,
  • 30 The man <0376>, [who is] the lord <0113> of the land <0776>, spake <01696> roughly <07186> to us, and took <05414> us for spies <07270> of the country <0776>.
  • 31 And we said <0559> unto him, We [are] true <03651> [men]; we are no <03808> spies <07270>:
  • 32 We [be] twelve brethren <0251>, sons <01121> of our father <01>; one <0259> [is] not, and the youngest <06996> [is] this day <03117> with our father <01> in the land <0776> of Canaan <03667>.
  • 33 And the man <0376>, the lord <0113> of the country <0776>, said <0559> unto us, Hereby <02063> shall I know <03045> that ye [are] true <03651> [men]; leave <03241> one <0259> of your brethren <0251> [here] with me, and take <03947> [food for] the famine <07459> of your households <01004>, and be gone <03212>:
  • 34 And bring <0935> your youngest <06996> brother <0251> unto me: then shall I know <03045> that ye [are] no <03808> spies <07270>, but [that] ye [are] true <03651> [men: so] will I deliver <05414> you your brother <0251>, and ye shall traffick <05503> in the land <0776>.
  • 35 And it came <01961> to pass as they emptied <07324> their sacks <08242>, that, behold <02009>, every man's <0376> bundle <06872> of money <03701> [was] in his sack <08242>: and when [both] they and their father <01> saw <07200> the bundles <06872> of money <03701>, they were afraid <03372>.
  • 36 And Jacob <03290> their father <01> said <0559> unto them, Me have ye bereaved <07921> [of my children]: Joseph <03130> [is] not, and Simeon <08095> [is] not, and ye will take <03947> Benjamin <01144> [away]: all <03605> these things are against <05921> me.
  • 37 And Reuben <07205> spake <0559> unto his father <01>, saying <0559>, Slay <04191> my two <08147> sons <01121>, if I bring <0935> him not to thee: deliver <05414> him into <05921> my hand <03027>, and I will bring <07725> him to thee again <07725>.
  • 38 And he said <0559>, My son <01121> shall not go <03381> down <03381> with you; for his brother <0251> is dead <04191>, and he is left <07604> alone <0905>: if mischief <0611> befall <07122> him by the way <01870> in the which <0834> ye go <03212>, then shall ye bring <03381> down <03381> my gray <07872> hairs with sorrow <03015> to the grave <07585>.

  • 3 And Judah <03063> spake <0559> unto him, saying <0559>, The man <0376> did solemnly <05749> protest <05749> unto us, saying <0559>, Ye shall not see <07200> my face <06440>, except <01115> your brother <0251> [be] with you.

  • 30 And Joseph <03130> made haste <04116>; for his bowels <07358> did yearn <03648> upon his brother <0251>: and he sought <01245> [where] to weep <01058>; and he entered <0935> into [his] chamber <02315>, and wept <01058> there <08033>.
  • 31 And he washed <07364> his face <06440>, and went <03318> out, and refrained <0662> himself, and said <0559>, Set <07760> on bread <03899>.
  • 32 And they set <07760> on for him by himself, and for them by themselves <0905>, and for the Egyptians <04713>, which did eat <0398> with him, by themselves <0905>: because <03588> the Egyptians <04713> might <03201> not eat <0398> bread <03899> with the Hebrews <05680>; for that [is] an abomination <08441> unto the Egyptians <04714>.
  • 33 And they sat <03427> before <06440> him, the firstborn <01060> according to his birthright <01062>, and the youngest <06810> according to his youth <06812>: and the men <0582> marvelled <08539> one <0376> at <0413> another <07453>.
  • 34 And he took <05375> [and sent <07971>] messes <04864> unto them from before <06440> him: but Benjamin's <01144> mess <04864> was five <02568> times <03027> so much <07235> as any of theirs. And they drank <08354>, and were merry <07937> with him.

  • 8 Behold <02005>, the money <03701>, which <0834> we found <04672> in our sacks <0572>' mouths <06310>, we brought <07725> again <07725> unto thee out of the land <0776> of Canaan <03667>: how <0349> then should we steal <01589> out of thy lord's <0113> house <01004> silver <03701> or <0176> gold <02091>?
  • 9 With whomsoever <0834> of thy servants <05650> it be found <04672>, both let him die <04191>, and we also <01571> will be my lord's <0113> bondmen <05650>.

  • 11 Then they speedily <04116> took <03381> down <03381> every man <0376> his sack <0572> to the ground <0776>, and opened <06605> every man <0376> his sack <0572>.
  • 12 And he searched <02664>, [and] began <02490> at the eldest <01419>, and left <03615> at the youngest <06996>: and the cup <01375> was found <04672> in Benjamin's <01144> sack <0572>.
  • 13 Then they rent <07167> their clothes <08071>, and laded <06006> every man <0376> his ass <02543>, and returned <07725> to the city <05892>.

  • 22 And we said <0559> unto my lord <0113>, The lad <05288> cannot leave <05800> his father <01>: for [if] he should leave <05800> his father, [his father] would die <04191>.
  • 23 And thou saidst <0559> unto thy servants <05650>, Except your youngest <06996> brother <0251> come <03381> down <03381> with you, ye shall see <07200> my face <06440> no <03808> more <03254>.

  • 28 And the one <0259> went <03318> out from me, and I said <0559>, Surely <0389> he is torn <02963> in pieces; and I saw <07200> him not since <02008>:
  • 29 And if <0518> ye take <03947> this <02088> also <01571> from me, and mischief <0611> befall <07136> him, ye shall bring <03381> down <03381> my gray <07872> hairs with sorrow <07451> to the grave <07585>.
  • 30 Now <06258> therefore when I come <0935> to thy servant <05650> my father <01>, and the lad <05288> [be] not with us; seeing that his life <05315> is bound <07194> up in the lad's <05288> life;
  • 31 It shall come <01961> to pass, when he seeth <07200> that the lad <05288> [is] not [with us], that he will die <04191>: and thy servants <05650> shall bring <03381> down <03381> the gray <07872> hairs of thy servant <05650> our father <01> with sorrow <03015> to the grave <07585>.
  • 32 For thy servant <05650> became <06148> surety <06148> for the lad <05288> unto my father <01>, saying <0559>, If <0518> I bring <0935> him not unto thee, then I shall bear <02398> the blame <02398> to my father <01> for ever.
  • 33 Now <06258> therefore, I pray <04994> thee, let thy servant <05650> abide <03427> instead <08478> of the lad <05288> a bondman <05650> to my lord <0113>; and let the lad <05288> go <05927> up with his brethren <0251>.
  • 34 For how <0349> shall I go <05927> up to my father <01>, and the lad <05288> [be] not with me? lest <06435> peradventure I see <07200> the evil <07451> that shall come <04672> on my father <01>.
