Gen 1:1 At the beginning (min avella) the Lord created the heavens and the earth. 
Gen 1:2 And the earth was vacancy and desolation, solitary of the sons of men, and void of every animal; and darkness was upon the face of the abyss, and the Spirit of mercies from before the Lord breathed upon the face of the waters.
Gen 1:3 And the Lord said, Let there be light and to enlighten above; and at once there was light. 
Gen 1:4 And the Lord beheld the light, that it was good; and the Lord divided between the light and the darkness. 
Gen 1:5 And the Lord called the light Day; and He made it that the inhabiters of the world might labour by it: and the darkness called He night; and He made it that in it the creatures might have rest. And it was evening, and it was morning, the First Day.
Gen 1:6 And the Lord said, Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it separate between the waters above and the waters beneath.
Gen 1:7 And the Lord made the expanse, upbearing it with three fingers, between the confines of the heavens and the waters of the ocean, and separated between the waters which were below the expanse, and the waters which were above, in the collection (or covering) of the expanse; and it was so. 
Gen 1:8 And the Lord called the expanse the Heavens. And it was evening, and it was morning, the Second Day.
Gen 1:9 And the Lord said, Let the lower waters which remain under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and the earth be dried, that the land may be visible. And it was so. 
Gen 1:10 And the Lord called the dry (land) the Earth, and the place of the assemblage of waters called He the Seas; and the Lord saw that it was good. 
Gen 1:11 And the Lord said, Let the earth increase the grassy herb whose seed seedeth, and the fruit-tree making fruit after its kind, whose seed is in itself upon the earth. And it was so. 
Gen 1:12 And the earth produced grasses (and) herbage whose seed seedeth, and the tree making fruit after its kind. And the Lord saw that it was good. 
Gen 1:13 And it was evening, and it was morning, the Third Day.
Gen 1:14 And the Lord said, Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens, to distinguish between the day and the night; and let them be for signs and for festival times, and for the numbering by them the account of days, and for the sanctifying of the beginning of months, and the beginning of years, the passing away of months, and the passing away of years, the revolutions of the sun, the birth of the moon, and the revolvings (of seasons).
Gen 1:15 And let them be for luminaries in the expanse of the heavens to give light upon the earth. And it was so. 
Gen 1:16 And the Lord made two great luminaries; and they were equal in glory twenty and one years, less six hundred and two and seventy parts of an hour. And afterwards the moon recited against the sun a false report; and she was diminished, and the sun was appointed to be the greater light to rule the day; and the moon to be the inferior light to rule in the night, and the stars. 
Gen 1:17 And the Lord ordained them unto their offices, in the expanse of the heavens, to give forth light upon the earth, 
Gen 1:18 and to minister by day and by night, to distinguish between the light of the day and the darkness of the night. And the Lord beheld that it was good. 
Gen 1:19 And it was evening, and it was morning, Day the Fourth.
Gen 1:20 And the Lord said, Let the lakes of the waters swarm forth the reptile, the living animal, and the fowl which flieth, whose nest is upon the earth; and let the way of the bird be upon the air of the expanse of the heavens. 
Gen 1:21 And the Lord created the great tanins, the lev-ya-than and his yoke-fellow which are prepared for the day of consolation, and every living animal which creepeth, and which the clear waters had swarmed forth after their kind; the kinds which are clean, and the kinds which are not clean; and every fowl which flieth with wings after their kinds, the clean and the unclean. And the Lord beheld that it was good. 
Gen 1:22 And He blessed them, saying, Increase and multiply, and fill the waters of the seas, and let the fowl multiply upon the earth. 
Gen 1:23 And it was evening, and it was morning, Day the Fifth.
Gen 1:24 And the Lord said, Let the soil of the earth bring forth the living creature according to his kind; the kind that is clean and the kind that is unclean; cattle, and creeping thing, and the creature of the earth, according to his kind. And it was so. 
Gen 1:25 And the Lord made the beast of the earth after his kind, the clean and the unclean, and cattle after their kind, and every reptile of the earth after its kind, the clean and the unclean. And the Lord saw that it was good.
Gen 1:26 And the Lord said to the angels who ministered before Him, who had been created in the second day of the creation of the world, Let us make man in Our image, in Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl which are in the atmosphere of heaven, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every reptile creeping upon the earth. 
Gen 1:27 And the Lord created man in His Likeness: In the image of the Lord He created him, with two hundred and forty and eight members, with three hundred and sixty and five nerves, and overlaid them with skin, and filled it with flesh and blood. Male and female in their bodies He created them. 
Gen 1:28 And He blessed them, and the Lord said to them, Increase and multiply, and fill the earth with sons and daughters, and prevail over it, in its possessions; and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the fowl of the heavens, and over every creeping animal that creepeth upon the earth. 
Gen 1:29 And the Lord said, Behold, I have given you every herb whose seed seedeth upon the face of all the earth, and every unfruitful tree for the need of building and for burning; and the tree in which is fruit seeding after its kind, to you it shall be for food. 
Gen 1:30 But to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the heavens, and to every reptile upon the earth in which is the living soul, (I have given) all green herbs. And it was so. 
Gen 1:31 And the Lord beheld every thing He had made, and it was very good. And it was evening, and it was morning, the Sixth Day.
Gen 2:1 And the creatures of the heavens and earth, and all the hosts of them, were completed. 
Gen 2:2 And the Lord had finished by the Seventh Day the work which He had wrought, and the ten formations which He had created between the suns; and He rested the Seventh Day from all His works which He had performed. 
Gen 2:3 And the Lord blessed the Seventh Day more than all the days of the week, and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His works which the Lord had created and had willed to make. 
Gen 2:4 These are the geneses of the heavens and earth when they were created in the day that the Lord God made the earth and heavens. 
Gen 2:5 And all the trees of the field were not as yet in the earth, and all the herbs of the field had not as yet germinated, because the Lord God had not made it to rain upon the earth, and man was not to cultivate the ground. 
Gen 2:6 But a cloud of glory descended from the throne of glory, and was filled with waters from the ocean, and afterward went up from the earth, and gave rain to come down and water all the face of the ground.
Gen 2:7 And the Lord God created man in two formations; and took dust from the place of the house of the sanctuary, and from the four winds of the world, and mixed from all the waters of the world, and created him red, black, and white; and breathed into his nostrils the inspiration of life, and there was in the body of Adam the inspiration of a speaking spirit, unto the illumination of the eyes and the hearing of the ears.
Gen 2:8 And a garden from the Eden of the just was planted by the Word of the Lord God before the creation of the world, and He made there to dwell the man when He had created him. 
Gen 2:9 And the Lord God made to grow from the ground every tree that was desirable to behold and good to eat, and the tree of life in the midst of the garden, whose height was a journey of five hundred years, and the tree of whose fruit they who ate would distinguish between good and evil.
Gen 2:10 And a river went forth from Eden, to water the garden, and from thence was separated, and became four heads of rivers (or four chief rivers). 
Gen 2:11 The name of the first is Phishon; that is it which compasseth all the land of Hindiki, where there is gold. 
Gen 2:12 And the gold of that land is choice. There is the bedilcha, and the precious stones of byrils. 
Gen 2:13 And the name of the second river is Gichon; that is it which encompasseth all the land of Koosh. 
Gen 2:14 And the name of the third river is Diglath; that is it which goeth to the east of Athoor. And the fourth river is Pherath.
Gen 2:15 And the Lord God took the man from the mountain of worship, where he had been created, and made him dwell in the garden of Eden, to do service in the law, and to keep its commandments.
Gen 2:16 And the Lord God commanded Adam, saying, Of every tree of the garden eating thou mayest eat. 
Gen 2:17 But of the tree of whose fruit they who eat (become) wise to know between good and evil, thou shalt not eat: for in the day that thou eatest thou wilt be guilty of death.
Gen 2:18 And the Lord God said, It is not right that Adam should be sleeping alone: I will make unto him a wife who may be a helper before him.
Gen 2:19 And the Lord God created from the earth every beast of the field, and every fowl of the heavens, and brought them to Adam, to see by what name he would call it. And whatever Adam called the living animal, that was its name. 
Gen 2:20 And Adam called the names of all cattle, and all fowl of the heavens, and all beasts of the field. But for Adam was not found as yet a helper before him.
Gen 2:21 And the Lord God threw a deep slumber upon Adam, and he slept. And He took one of his ribs, it was the thirteenth rib of the right side, and closed it up with flesh. 
Gen 2:22 And the Lord God builded the rib which he had taken from Adam into a woman; and He brought her to Adam. 
Gen 2:23 And Adam said, This time, and not again, is woman created from man. Thus, because she is created from me, (she is) bone of my bone, and flesh of my flesh. This it is fit to call Woman, because from man she was taken. 
Gen 2:24 Therefore a man shall leave, and be separate from the house of the bed of his father and of his mother, and shall consociate with his wife, and both of them shall be one flesh. 
Gen 2:25 And both of them were wise, Adam and his wife; but they were not faithful (or truthful) in their glory.
Gen 3:1 And the serpent was wiser unto evil than all the beasts of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, Is it truth that the Lord God hath said, You shall not eat of every tree of the garden? 
Gen 3:2 And the woman said to the serpent, From the rest of the fruits of the trees of the garden we have power to eat; 
Gen 3:3 but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden the Lord hath said, You shall not eat of it, nor approach it, lest you die. 
Gen 3:4 In that hour the serpent spake accusation against his Creator, and said to the woman, Dying you will not die; for every artificer hateth the son of his art: 
Gen 3:5 for it is manifest before the Lord, that in the day that you eat of it, you will be as the great angels, who are wise to know between good and evil.
Gen 3:6 And the woman beheld Sammael, the angel of death, and was afraid; yet she knew that the tree was good to eat, and that it was medicine for the enlightenment of the eyes, and desirable tree by means of which to understand. And she took of its fruit, and did eat; and she gave to her husband with her, and he did eat. 
Gen 3:7 And the eyes of both were enlightened, and they knew that they were naked, divested of the purple robe in which they had been created. And they saw the sight of their shame, and sewed to themselves the leaves of figs, and made to them cinctures.
Gen 3:8 And they heard the voice of the Word of the Lord God walking in the garden in the repose of the day; and Adam and his wife hid themselves from before the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 
Gen 3:9 And the Lord God called to Adam, and said to him, Is not all the world which I have made manifest before Me; the darkness as the light? and how hast thou thought in thine heart to hide from before Me? The place where thou art concealed, do I not see? Where are the commandments that I commanded thee?
Gen 3:10 And he said, The voice of Thy Word heard I in the garden, and I was afraid, because I am naked; and the commandment which Thou didst teach me, I have transgressed; therefore I hid myself from shame. 
Gen 3:11 And He said, Who showed thee that thou art naked? Unless thou hast eaten of the fruit of the tree of which I commanded that thou shouldst not eat. 
Gen 3:12 And Adam said, The woman whom Thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the fruit of the tree, and I did eat. 
Gen 3:13 And the Lord God said to the woman, What hast thou done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me with his subtilty, and deceived me with his wickedness, and I ate. 
Gen 3:14 And the Lord God brought the three unto judgment; and He said to the serpent, Because thou hast done this, cursed art thou of all the cattle, and of all the beasts of the field: upon thy belly thou shalt go, and thy feet shall be cut off, and thy skin thou shalt cast away once in seven years; and the poison of death shall be in thy mouth, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life. 
Gen 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between the seed of thy son, and the seed of her sons; and it shall be when the sons of the woman keep the commandments of the law, they will be prepared to smite thee upon thy head; but when they forsake the commandments of the law, thou wilt be ready to wound them in their heel. Nevertheless for them there shall be a medicine, but for thee there will be no medicine; and they shall make a remedy for the heel in the days of the King Meshiha.
Gen 3:16 Unto the woman He said, Multiplying, I will multiply thy affliction by the blood of thy virginity, and by thy conception; in sorrow shalt thou bear children, and to thy husband shall be thy desire, and he will have rule over thee unto righteousness or unto sin.
Gen 3:17 But to Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened to the word of thy wife, and hast eaten of the fruit of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it, accursed is the ground, in that it did not show thee thy guilt; in labour shalt thou eat (of) it all the days of thy life. 
Gen 3:18 And thorns and thistles will it put forth and increase on account of thee, and thou shalt eat the herb which is on the face of the field. And Adam answered: I pray, through mercies from before Thee, O Lord, that we may not be accounted as the cattle, to eat the herb of the face of the field. Let us stand up, and labour with the labour of the hands, and eat food of the food of the earth; and thus let there be distinction before Thee, between the children of men and the offspring of cattle.
Gen 3:19 By the labour of thy hands thou shalt eat food, until thou turn again to the dust from which thou wast created: for dust thou art, and unto dust thou shalt return; for from the dust it is to be that thou art to arise, to render judgment and reckoning for all that thou hast done, in the day of the great judgment.
Gen 3:20 And Adam called the name of his wife Hava, because she is the mother of all the children of men. 
Gen 3:21 And the Lord God made to Adam and to his wife vestures of honour from the skin of the serpent, which he had cast from him, upon the skin of their flesh, instead of that adornment which had been cast away; and He clothed them.
Gen 3:22 And the Lord God said to the angels who ministered before Him, Behold, Adam is sole on the earth, as I am sole in the heavens above; and it will be that they will arise from him who will know to discern between good and evil. Had he kept the commandments which I appointed to him, he would have lived and subsisted as the tree of life for ever. But now, because he hath not kept that which I prescribed, it is decreed against him that we keep him from the garden of Eden, before he reach forth his hand and take of the tree of life: for, behold, if he eat thereof, living he will live and subsist for ever. 
Gen 3:23 And the Lord God removed him from the garden of Eden; and he went and dwelt on Mount Moriah, to cultivate the ground from which he had been created. 
Gen 3:24 And He drave out the man from thence where He had made to dwell the glory of His Shekina at the first between the two Kerubaia. Before He had created the world, He created the law; He prepared the garden of Eden for the righteous, that they might eat and delight themselves with the fruit of the tree; because they would have practised in their lives the doctrine of the law in this world, and have maintained the commandments: (but) he prepared Gehinnam for the wicked, which is like the sharp, consuming sword of two edges; in the midst of it He hath prepared flakes of fire and burning coals for the judgment of the wicked who rebelled in their life against the doctrine of the law. To serve the law is better than (to eat of) the fruit of the tree of life, (the law) which the Word of the Lord prepared, that man in keeping it might continue, and walk in the paths of the way of life in the world to come.
Gen 4:1 And Adam knew Hava his wife, who had desired the Angel; and she conceived, and bare Kain; and she said, I have acquired a man, the Angel of the Lord. 
Gen 4:2 And she added to bear from her husband Adam his twin, even Habel. And Habel was a shepherd of the flock, but Kain was a man working in the earth. 
Gen 4:3 And it was at the end of days, on the fourteenth of Nisan, that Kain brought of the produce of the earth, the seed of cotton (or line), an oblation of first things before the Lord; 
Gen 4:4 and Habel brought of the firstlings of the flock, and of their fat; and it was pleasing before the Lord, and He gave (His) countenance to Habel and to his oblation; 
Gen 4:5 but to Kain and to his oblation He gave no countenance. And Kain was angered greatly, and the features of his face were downcast. 
Gen 4:6 And the Lord said to Kain, Why hast thou anger, and why are the features of thy face downcast? 
Gen 4:7 If thou doest thy work well, will not thy guilt be forgiven thee? But if thou doest not thy work well in this world, thy sin is retained unto the day of the great judgment, and at the doors of thy heart lieth thy sin. And into thy hand have I delivered the power over evil passion, and unto thee shall be the inclination thereof, that thou mayest have authority over it to become righteous, or to sin.
Gen 4:8 And Kain said to Habel his brother, Come, and let us two go forth into the field. And it was that when they two had gone forth into the field, Kain answered and said to Habel, I perceive that the world was created in goodness, but it is not governed (or conducted) according to the fruit of good works, for there is respect to persons in judgment; therefore it is that thy offering was accepted, and mine not accepted with good will. Habel answered and said to Kain, In goodness was the world created, and according to the fruit of good works is it governed; and there is no respect of persons in judgment; but because the fruits of my works were better than thine, my oblation, before thine, hath been accepted with good will. Kain answered and said to Habel, There is neither judgment nor Judge, nor another world; nor will good reward be given to the righteous, nor vengeance be taken of the wicked. And Habel answered and said to Kain, There is a judgment, and there is a Judge; and there is another world, and a good reward given to the righteous, and vengeance taken of the wicked. And because of these words they had contention upon the face of the field; and Kain arose against Habel his brother, and drave a stone into his forehead, and killed him.
Gen 4:9 And the Lord said to Kain, Where is Habel thy brother? And he said, I know not; am I the keeper of my brother? 
Gen 4:10 And He said, What hast thou done? The voice of the bloods of the murder of thy brother which are swallowed up in the sod, crieth before Me from the earth. 
Gen 4:11 And now because thou hast killed him, thou art cursed from the earth, which hath opened the mouth, and received the bloods of thy brother from thy hand. 
Gen 4:12 When thou tillest the earth, it shall not add to give strength to its fruits for thee. A wanderer and an exile shalt thou be in the earth. 
Gen 4:13 And Kain said before the Lord, More heavy is my rebellion than can be borne (away). Yet is there power before Thee to forgive it. 
Gen 4:14 Behold, Thou hast cast me forth today from the face of the earth, and from before Thee is it possible to be hidden? And because I am a wanderer and an exile in the earth, any just one who findeth me will kill me. 
Gen 4:15 And the Lord said to him, Behold now, any one who killeth Kain, unto seven generations vengeance shall be taken of him. And the Lord sealed upon the face of Kain the mark of the Name great and honourable, that any one who might find him should not kill him when he saw it upon him.
Gen 4:16 And Kain went out from before the Lord, and dwelt in the land of the wandering of his exile, which had been made for him from before, as the garden of Eden. 
Gen 4:17 And Kain knew his wife, and she conceived and bare Hanok; and he builded a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son, Hanok.
Gen 4:18 And there was born unto Hanok Irad, and Irad begat Mechujael, and Mechujael begat Methushael, and Methushael begat Lemek. 
Gen 4:19 And Lemek took to him two wives; the name of the first, Ada, and the name of the second, Zillah. 
Gen 4:20 And Ada bare Javal; he was the chief (rab) of all those who dwell in tents, and are masters of cattle. 
Gen 4:21 And the name of his brother (was) Juval: he was chief (rab) of all those who take part in song with the lyre and the pipe. 
Gen 4:22 And Zillah bare also Tuvalkain, the chief (rab) of all artificers who know the workmanship of brass and iron. And the sister of Tuvalkain was Naama; she was mistress of elegies and songs.
Gen 4:23 And Lemek said to his wives Ada and Zillah, Hear my voice, wives of Lemek, hearken to my words: for I have not killed a man, that I should be slain for him; neither have I destroyed a young man, on whose account my children should perish. 
Gen 4:24 For Kain who sinned and was converted by repentance (had protection) unto seven generations extended to him: and to Lemek, the son of his son, who hath not sinned, it is just that it shall be extended unto seventy and seven.
Gen 4:25 And Adam knew his wife again, at the end of a hundred and thirty years after Habel had been slain; and she bare a son, and called his name Sheth; for she said, The Lord hath given me another son instead of Habel whom Kain slew. 
Gen 4:26 And to Sheth also was born a son, and he called his name Enosh. That was the generation in whose days they began to err, and to make themselves idols, and surnamed their idols by the name of the Word of the Lord.
Gen 5:1 This is the book of the genealogy of Man. In the day that the Lord created man, in the likeness of the Lord He made him. 
Gen 5:2 Male and female He created them, and blessed them in the name of His Word; and He called their name Man in the day they were created. 
Gen 5:3 And Adam lived a hundred and thirty years, and begat Sheth, who had the likeness of his image and of his similitude: for before had Hava born Kain, who was not like to him; and Habel was killed by his hand. And Kain was cast out; neither is his seed genealogized in the book of the genealogy of Adam. But afterwards there was born one like him, and he called his name Sheth. 
Gen 5:4 And the days of Adam after he begat Sheth were eight hundred years, and he begat sons and daughters.

Gen 5:24 And Hanok served in the truth before the Lord; and, behold, he was not with the sojourners of the earth; for he was withdrawn, and he ascended to the firmament by the Word before the Lord, and his name was called Metatron the Great Saphra.

Gen 6:2 and the sons of the great saw that the daughters of men were beautiful, and painted, and curled, walking with revelation of the flesh, and with imaginations of wickedness; that they took them wives of all who pleased them. 
Gen 6:3 And the Lord said by His Word, All the generations of the wicked which are to arise shall not be purged after the order of the judgments of the generation of the deluge, which shall be destroyed and exterminated from the midst of the world. Have I not imparted My Holy Spirit to them, (or, placed My Holy Spirit in them,) that they may work good works? And, behold, their works are wicked. Behold, I will give them a prolongment of a hundred and twenty years, that they may work repentance, and not perish.
Gen 6:4 Schamchazai and Uzziel, who fell from heaven, were on the earth in those days; and also, after the sons of the Great had gone in with the daughters of men, they bare to them: and these are they who are called men who are of the world, men of names.

Gen 6:15 ___ 
Gen 6:16 Go thou unto Phison, and take from thence a precious stone, and fix it in the ark to illuminate you: with the measure of a cubit (or span) shalt thou complete it above.

Gen 6:20 Of the fowl after its kind, and of all cattle after its kind, and of every reptile of the earth after its kind, two of every (sort) shall enter to thee by the hand of the angel, who will take and cause them to enter to thee, to be preserved. 
Gen 6:21 And thou, take to thee of all food that is eaten, and let it be to thee and to them for food. 
Gen 6:22 And Noah did according to all that the Lord had instructed him.
Gen 7:1 And the Lord said to Noah, Enter, thou, and every one of thy house, into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation. 
Gen 7:2 Of all clean cattle take thou seven by seven, male and female, and of all cattle not clean, two (and two), male and female. 
Gen 7:3 But of birds of the heaven, seven by seven, male and female, to preserve from them seed upon the earth. 
Gen 7:4 For, behold, I give you space of seven days; if they will be converted, it shall be forgiven them; but if they will not be converted, after a time of days yet seven, I will cause rain to come down upon the earth forty days and forty nights, and will destroy all bodies of man and of beast upon the earth. 
Gen 7:5 And Noah did according to all that the Lord had commanded him. 
Gen 7:6 And Noah was the son of six hundred years when the deluge of waters was upon the earth. 
Gen 7:7 And Noah entered, with his sons and his wife and the wives of his sons with him, into the ark, from before the waters of the deluge. 
Gen 7:8 Of all cattle clean, and of cattle unclean, of birds, and of whatever creepeth upon the earth, 
Gen 7:9 two and two they entered unto Noah into the ark, male and female, as the Lord had instructed Noah.
Gen 7:10 And it was at the time of seven days after the conclusion of the mourning for Methushelach, that the Lord beheld, and, lo, the sons of men had not turned. And the waters of the deluge came down hotly from the heavens upon the earth. 
Gen 7:11 In the six-hundredth year of the life of Noah, in the second month, which was the month of Marchesvan, for hitherto the months had been numbered from Tishri which was the beginning of the year at the completion of the world, in the seventeenth day of the month, in that day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up. And the giants were gathered there together with their sons and perturbed them, and afterwards the windows of heaven were opened. 
Gen 7:12 And the rain came down upon the earth forty days and forty nights. 
Gen 7:13 In that same day entered Noah, and Shem, and Cham, and Yapheth, the sons of Noah, and the wife of Noah, and the three wives of his sons with him, into the ark: 
Gen 7:14 they, and every animal after his kind, and all cattle after their kind, and every reptile that creepeth upon the earth after his kind, and every fowl after its kind, every bird which flieth. 
Gen 7:15 And they entered to Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh in which was the breath of life. 
Gen 7:16 And they coming entered, male and female, of all flesh unto him, as the Lord had instructed him; and the Word of the Lord covered over the door of the ark upon the face thereof.
Gen 7:17 And there was a flood forty days upon the earth, and the waters were multiplied and bare up the ark, and it was lifted from the earth. 
Gen 7:18 And the waters waxed mighty and increased greatly upon the earth, and the ark went floating upon the face of the waters. 
Gen 7:19 And the waters prevailed greatly upon the earth, and all the high hills which were under the heavens were covered: 
Gen 7:20 fifteen cubits higher did the waters prevail, and the mountains were covered. 
Gen 7:21 And all flesh expired which moveth upon the earth; of fowl, and of cattle, and of wild beasts, and every moving thing that moveth upon the earth, and all the sons of men, 
Gen 7:22 --every thing in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all on the dry land, died. 
Gen 7:23 And all the bodies of men and of beasts upon the face of the earth, from man to cattle, to creeping thing, and to the fowl which wingeth in the air of heaven, perished from the earth; and Noah only was left, and they who were with him in the ark. 
Gen 7:24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth a hundred and fifty days.
Gen 8:1 And the Lord in His Word remembered Noah, and all the animals and the cattle which were with him in the ark; and the Lord caused the wind of mercies to pass over the earth, and the waters were dried. 
Gen 8:2 And the fountains of the deep were shut up, and the windows of heaven, and the rain was forbidden to descend from heaven. 
Gen 8:3 And the waters returned from being on the earth, going and returning. And the waters were minished at the end of a hundred and fifty days. 
Gen 8:4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, which is the month of Nisan, in the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Qadron; the name of the one mountain is Qardania, and the name of the other mountain Irmenia; and there was builded the city of Armenia in the land of the east. 
Gen 8:5 And the waters went and diminished until the tenth month, the month Tammuz. In Tammuz, in the first of the month, the heads of the mountains were seen. 
Gen 8:6 And it was at the end of forty days, and Noah opened the aperture of the ark which he had made. 
Gen 8:7 And he sent out a raven; and it went forth, going forth and returning, until the waters had dried from the earth. 
Gen 8:8 And he sent forth a house-dove from being with him, to see whether the waters were lightened from off the faces of the earth. 
Gen 8:9 And the dove found no rest for the sole of the foot, and returned unto him to the ark; and he knew that the waters were (yet) upon the face of all the earth. And he reached out his hand, and took and brought her unto him into the ark. 
Gen 8:10 And he prolonged (waited) yet seven days, and again he sent the dove from the ark. 
Gen 8:11 And the dove came to him at the evening time, and, behold, a leaf of olive gathered, broken off, she brought in her mouth, and which she had taken from the Mount of the Meshiha. And Noah understood that the waters had lightened from being on the earth. 
Gen 8:12 And he prolonged yet seven days, and added to send forth the dove; but she added not to return to him again. 
Gen 8:13 And it was in the six hundred and first year, in Tishri, in the first of the month, in the beginning of the year, that the waters were dried from upon the earth. And Noah removed the covering of the ark, and saw the faces of the ground to be dried. 
Gen 8:14 And in the month Marchesvan, in the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.
Gen 8:15 And the Lord spake with Noah, saying: 
Gen 8:16 Go forth from the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and the wives of thy sons, with thee. 
Gen 8:17 Every living animal that is with thee of all flesh, of fowl, of cattle, and of every reptile that creepeth on the earth, bring forth with thee, that they may produce in the earth, and spread abroad and multiply on the earth. 
Gen 8:18 And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and the wives of his sons, with him. 
Gen 8:19 Every animal, every reptile, and every bird, which moveth upon the earth, according to its seed, went forth from the ark.
Gen 8:20 And Noah builded the altar before the Lord; that altar which Adam had builded in the time when he was cast forth from the garden of Eden, and had offered an oblation upon it; and upon it had Kain and Habel offered their oblations. But when the waters of the deluge descended, it was destroyed, and Noah rebuilded it; and he took of all clean cattle, and of all clean fowl, and sacrificed four upon that altar. And the Lord accepted his oblation with favour: 
Gen 8:21 and the Lord said in His Word, I will not add again to curse the earth on account of the sin of the children of men; for the imagination of the heart of man is evil from his youth; neither will I add to destroy whatever liveth as I have done. 
Gen 8:22 Until all the days of the earth, sowing in the season of Tishri, and harvest in the season of Nisan, and coldness in the season of Tebeth, and warmth in the season of Tammuz, and summer and winter, and days and nights shall not fail.
Gen 9:1 And the Lord blessed Noah, and his sons, and said to them, Spread forth and multiply, and replenish the earth. 
Gen 9:2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and on every fowl of the heavens; of all that the earth swarmeth forth, and all the fishes of the sea, into your hand are they delivered. 
Gen 9:3 Every moving thing which liveth to you shall be for food: as the green herb have I given to you the whole. 
Gen 9:4 But flesh which is torn of the living beast, what time the life is in it, or that torn from a slaughtered animal before all the breath has gone forth, you shall not eat. 
Gen 9:5 But the blood of your lives I will I require of every animal which hath killed a man, I will require that it be put to death on his account. And from the hand of the human being, from the hand of the man who hath shed the blood of his brother, will I require the life of man. 
Gen 9:6 Whoso sheddeth the blood of man, the judges, by witnesses, shall condemn him unto death; but he who sheddeth it without witnesses, the Lord of the world will bring punishment on him in the day of the great judgment; because in the image of the Lord He made man. 
Gen 9:7 And you, spread yourselves abroad and multiply; bring forth in the earth, and increase in it.
Gen 9:8 And the Lord spake to Noah, and to his sons with him, saying, 
Gen 9:9 I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your children after you; 
Gen 9:10 and with every living soul that is with you, of birds, and of cattle, and of every beast of the earth that is with you, of all that go forth from the ark, of every beast of the earth. 
Gen 9:11 And I will establish my covenant with you, and will not again cause all flesh to perish by the waters of a flood; and there shall not again be a flood to destroy the earth.
Gen 9:12 And the Lord said, This is the sign of the covenant which I establish between My Word and between you and every living soul that is with you, unto the generations of the world. 
Gen 9:13 I have set My Bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of the covenant between My Word and the earth. 
Gen 9:14 And it shall be that when I spread forth My glorious cloud over the earth, the bow shall be seen in the day (time), while the sun is not sunk (or hidden) in a cloud. 
Gen 9:15 And I will remember My covenant which is between My Word and between you and every living soul of all flesh, that there shall not be the waters of a flood to destroy all flesh. 
Gen 9:16 And the bow shall be in the cloud, and I will look upon it, to remember the everlasting covenant between the Word of the Lord and every living soul of all flesh that is upon the earth. 
Gen 9:17 And the Lord said to Noah, This is the sign of the covenant that I have covenanted between My Word and between the word for all flesh that is upon the earth.
Gen 9:18 And the sons of Noah who went forth from the ark were Shem, Cham, and Japhet; and Cham is the father of Kenaan. 
Gen 9:19 These are the three sons of Noah, and from them they were spread abroad to dwell in all the earth.
Gen 9:20 And Noah began to be a man working in the earth. And he found a vine which the river had brought away from the garden of Eden; and he planted it in a vineyard, and it flouished in a day; and its grapes became ripe, and he pressed them out. 
Gen 9:21 And he drank of the wine and was drunken; and he made himself naked in the midst of his tent. 
Gen 9:22 And Cham, the father of Kenaan, beheld the nakedness of his father, and showed to his brethren without. 
Gen 9:23 And Shem and Japhet took a mantle, and bare it upon the shoulders of each, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were turned back, and the nakedness of their father they did not behold. 
Gen 9:24 And Noach awoke from his wine, and knew, by the relation of a dream, what had been done to him by Cham his son, who was inferior in worth, on the account that he had not begotten a fourth son. 
Gen 9:25 And he said, Accursed is Kenaan who is his fourth son, a serving servant shall he be to his brethren. 
Gen 9:26 And he said, Blessed be the Lord, the God of Shem, whose work is righteous; and therefore shall Kenaan be servant unto him. 
Gen 9:27 The Lord shall beautify the borders of Japhet, and his sons shall be proselyted and dwell in the schools of Shem, and Kenaan shall be a servant to them. 
Gen 9:28 And Noach lived after the deluge three hundred and fifty years. 
Gen 9:29 And all the days of Noach were nine hundred and fifty years; and he died.
Gen 10:1 These are the generations of the sons of Noach, and (of the) sons (who) were born to them after the deluge. 
Gen 10:2 The sons of Japheth, Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Thubal, and Meshek, and Thiras. And the names of their provinces, Afriki, and Germania, and Medi, and Makadonia, and Iatinia, and Asia, and Tharki. 
Gen 10:3 And the sons of Gomer, Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarma. 
Gen 10:4 And the sons of Javan, Elisha, Alas, and Tarsas, Akazia, and Dordonia.
Gen 10:5 From these were distributed the tribes of the islands of the Gentiles, every one according to his language, to his kindred in their nations. 
Gen 10:6 And the sons of Cham, Kush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Kenaan. And the name of their provinces, Arabia, and Mizraim, and Alichrok, and Kenaan. 
Gen 10:7 And the sons of Kush, Seba, and Havilah, and Sabta, and Raama, and Sabteka, and the name of their provinces, Sinirai, and Hindiki, and Semadi, and Lubai, and Zingai. And the sons of Mauritinos, Zmargad and Mezag. 
Gen 10:8 And Kush begat Nimrod: he began to be mighty in sin, and to rebel before the Lord in the earth. 
Gen 10:9 He was a mighty rebel before the Lord; therefore it is said, From the day that the world was created there hath not been as Nimrod, mighty in hunting, and a rebel before the Lord. 
Gen 10:10 And the beginning of his kingdom was Bavel the Great, and Hadas, and Netsibin, and Ketispon, in the land of Pontos. 
Gen 10:11 From that land went forth Nimrod, and reigned in Athur, because he would not be in the counsel of a divided generation. And he left those four cities; and the Lord thereupon gave him a place; and he builded four other cities, Nineveh and Pelatiath, Kartha and Parioth. 
Gen 10:12 And Talesar, which was builded between Nineveh and Hadiath; that is a great city. 
Gen 10:13 And Mizraim begat the Nivatee, and the Mariotee, and the Livakee, and the Pantascinee, 
Gen 10:14 and the Pathrosim, and the Nasiotaee, and the Pantapolotee, from whom went forth the Philistaee and the Kaphodikaee.
Gen 10:15 And Kenaan begat Zidon his firstborn, and Heth, 
Gen 10:16 and the Jebusaee, and the Emoraee, and the Gergeshaee, 
Gen 10:17 and the Hivaee, and the Irkaee, and the Antosaee, 
Gen 10:18 and the Lutasaee, and the Chomtsaee, and the Antekoee; and after then the seed of the Kenaanaee were scattered.
Gen 10:19 And the limit of the Kenaanaee was from Kothanis, going up to Gerar, unto Azah, unto Sedom and Amorah, Admah and Zeboim, unto Kaldahi. 
Gen 10:20 These are the sons of Cham, according to the seed of their genealogies, after their languages, in the dwelling of their lands, in the kindred of their people.
Gen 10:21 And to Shem also was born a son. He is the father of all the sons of the Hebrews, the brother of Japheth, great in the fear of the Lord. 
Gen 10:22 The sons of Shem: Elim, and Athur, and Arphakshad, and Lud, and Aram. 
Gen 10:23 ___ 
Gen 10:24 Arphakshad begat Shelach, and Shelach begat Eber. 
Gen 10:25 And to Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg, because in his days the earth was divided; and the name of the other Joktan. 
Gen 10:26 And Joktan begat Elmodad, who measured (or lined) the earth with lines; and Shaleph, who led forth the waters of rivers, and Chatsarmaveth, and Jarach, and 
Gen 10:27 Harodam, and Uzal, and Dikla, 
Gen 10:28 and Oval, and Avimael, and Sheba, 
Gen 10:29 and Ophir, and Havila, and Jobab. All these are the sons of Joktan. 
Gen 10:30 And the house of their dwelling was from Mesha, by which thou goest up to Sepharvae, a mountain of the east. 
Gen 10:31 These are the sons of Shem, according to their houses, in the dwelling of their lands, according to the kindred of their people. 
Gen 10:32 These are the houses of the sons of Noah, according to their houses in their peoples, and from them are the peoples distinguished in the earth after the deluge.
Gen 11:1 And all the earth was (of) one language, and one speech, and one counsel. In the holy language spake they, that by which the world had been created at the beginning. 
Gen 11:2 And it was while they were journeying from the east that they found a plain in the land of Bavel, and dwelt there.
Gen 11:3 And they said, a man to his fellow, Come, we will cast bricks, and put them in the furnace. And they had brick for stone, and slime for cement. 
Gen 11:4 And they said, Come, we will build us a city and a tower, and the head of it shall come to the summit of the heavens; and we will make us (an image for) worship on the top of it, and put a sword in his hand to act against the array of war, before that we be scattered on the face of the earth. 
Gen 11:5 And the Lord was revealed to punish them for the work of the city and the tower which the sons of men builded.
Gen 11:6 And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and the language of all of them one: and this they have thought to do: and now they will not be restrained from doing whatever they imagine. 
Gen 11:7 And the Lord said to the seventy angels which stand before Him, Come, we will descend and will there commingle their language, that a man shall not understand the speech of his neighbour. 
Gen 11:8 And the Word of the Lord was revealed against the city, and with Him seventy angels, having reference to seventy nations, each having its own language, and thence the writing of its own hand: and He dispersed them from thence upon the face of all the earth into seventy languages. And one knew not what his neighbour would say: but one slew the other; and they ceased from building the city. 
Gen 11:9 Therefore He called the name of it Bavel, because there did the Lord commingle the speech of all the inhabitants of the earth, and from thence did the Lord disperse them upon the faces of all the earth.
Gen 11:10 These are the generations of Shem. Shem was a son of a hundred years, and he begat Arphakshad, two years after the deluge. 
Gen 11:11 And Shem lived after he had begotten Arphakshad five hundred years, and begat sons and daughters. 
Gen 11:12 And Arphakshad lived thirty and five years, and begat Shelach. 
Gen 11:13 And Arphakshad lived after he had begotten Shelach four hundred and thirty years, and begat sons and daughters.

Gen 11:17 And Eber lived after he had begotten Peleg four hundred and thirty years, and begat sons and daughters. 
Gen 11:18 And Peleg lived thirty years, and begat Reu. 
Gen 11:19 And Peleg lived after he had begotten Reu two hundred and nine years, and begat sons and daughters. 
Gen 11:20 And Reu lived thirty-two years, and begat Serug. 
Gen 11:21 And Reu lived after he had begotten Serug two hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters. 
Gen 11:22 And Serug lived thirty years, and begat Nahor. 
Gen 11:23 And Serug lived after he had begotten Nahor two hundred years, and begat sons and daughters. 
Gen 11:24 And Nahor lived twenty-nine years, and begat Terah. 
Gen 11:25 And Nahor lived after he had begotten Terah one hundred and sixteen years, and begat sons and daughters. 
Gen 11:26 And Terah lived seventy years, and begat Abram and Nahor and Haran.
Gen 11:27 These are the generations of Terah. Terah begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran begat Lot. 
Gen 11:28 And it was when Nimrod had cast Abram into the furnace of fire because he would not worship his idol, and the fire had no power to burn him, that Haran's heart became doubtful, saying, If Nimrod overcome, I will be on his side: but if Abram overcome, I will be on his side. And when all the people who were there saw that the fire had no power over Abram, they said in their hearts, Is not Haran the brother of Abram full of divinations and charms, and has he not uttered spells over the fire that it should not burn his brother? Immediately (min yad, out of hand) there fell fire from the high heavens and consumed him; and Haran died in the sight of Terah his father, where he was burned in the land of his nativity, in the furnace of fire which the Kasdai had made for Abram his brother.
Gen 11:29 And Abram and Nahor took to them wives: the name of Abram's wife was Sara, and the name of the wife of Nahor, Milcha, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcha and the father of Iska, who is Sara. 
Gen 11:30 And Sara was barren, she had no child. 
Gen 11:31 And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot bar Haran, the son of his son, and his daughter-in-law Sara the wife of Abram his son, and went forth with them from Ura of the Kasdai, to go to the land of Kenaan. And they came unto Haran, and dwelt there. 
Gen 11:32 And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years. And Terah died in Haran.
Gen 12:1 AND the Lord said to Abram, Go thou from thy land; separate thyself from thy kindred; go forth from the house of thy father; go into the land which I will show thee. 
Gen 12:2 And I will make thee a great people, and will bless thee, and magnify thy name, and thou shalt be blessed.
Gen 12:3 And I will bless the priests who will spread forth their hands in prayer, and bless thy sons; and Bileam, who will curse them, I will curse, and they shall slay him with the mouth of the sword; and in thee shall be blessed all the generations of the earth. 
Gen 12:4 And Abram went, according as the Lord had spoken with him, and Lot went with him. And Abram was the son of seventy and five years at his going forth from Haran. 
Gen 12:5 And Abram took Sara his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all the substance which they had acquired, and the souls whom they had proselyted in Haran, and went forth to go to the land of Kenaan. And they came to the land of Kenaan. 
Gen 12:6 And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Shekem, unto the plain which had been showed. And the Kenaanites were then in the land; for the time had not yet come that the sons of Israel should possess it. 
Gen 12:7 And the Lord was revealed unto Abram, and said, To thy sons will I give this land. And he builded there an altar before the Lord, who was revealed to him. 
Gen 12:8 And he went up from thence to a mountain which was eastward of Bethel, and outspread his tent, having Bethel on the west and Ai on the east; and he builded there an altar before the Lord, and prayed in the Name of the Lord. 
Gen 12:9 And Abram migrated, going and migrating unto the south.
Gen 12:10 And there was a famine in the land, and Abram went down into Mizraim to be a dweller there, because the famine was strong in the land. 
Gen 12:11 And it was, as he approached to enter the limit of Mizraim, and they had come to the river, and were uncovering their flesh to pass over, that Abram, said to Sara his wife, Behold, until this I have not beheld thy flesh; but now I know that thou art a woman of fair aspect. 
Gen 12:12 It will be, therefore, when the Mizraee see thee, and view thy beauty, that they will say, This is his wife; and they will kill me, and thee will keep alive. 
Gen 12:13 Say, I pray, that thou art my sister, that it may be well with me for thy sake, and that my life may be spared on thy account. 
Gen 12:14 And it was when Abram had entered Mizraim, the Mizraee saw the woman to be very fair; 
Gen 12:15 and the princes of Pharoh beheld her, and praised her to Pharoh; and the woman was conducted to the royal house of Pharoh. 
Gen 12:16 And Pharoh did good to Abram for her sake; and he had sheep, and oxen, and asses, and servants, and handmaids, and she-asses, and camels. 
Gen 12:17 And the Word of the Lord sent great plagues against Pharoh and the men of his house, on account of Sara, Abram's wife. 
Gen 12:18 And Pharoh called Abram, and said, What is this that thou hast done to me? 
Gen 12:19 Why saidst thou, She is my sister? When I would take her to me to wife, plagues were at once sent against me, and I went not unto her. And now behold thy wife, take (her) and go. 
Gen 12:20 And Pharoh commanded men concerning him, and they led him forth, and his wife, and all that he had.
Gen 13:1 And Abram went up from Mizraim, he and his wife (and) all that he had; and Lot with him, to go to the south. 
Gen 13:2 And Abram had become very strong in cattle, in silver, and in gold. 
Gen 13:3 And he proceeded in his journeyings from the south unto Bethel, and returned to the place where he had outspread his tabernacle at the first, between Bethel and Ai, 
Gen 13:4 to the place of the altar which he had made there at the beginning; and Abram prayed there in the Name of the Lord. 
Gen 13:5 And also unto Lot, who was remembered through the righteousness of Abram, there were sheep and oxen and tents. 
Gen 13:6 And the land could not sustain them to dwell together, because their possessions were great, and they were not able to dwell together. 
Gen 13:7 And contentions arose between the shepherds of Abram's flock, and the shepherds of the flocks of Lot; for the shepherds of Abram had been instructed by him not to go among the Kenaanaee and the Pherizaee, who, as yet, had power in the land, and to restrain the cattle that they should make no depredation in going to the place of their pasture: but the shepherds of Lot would go and feed in the grounds of the Kenaanaee and Pherizaee who yet dwelt in the land.
Gen 13:8 And Abram said to Lot, Between me and thee let there not now be controversy, nor between my shepherds and thy shepherds; for we are brother-men. 
Gen 13:9 Is not all the land before thee? Separate then from me. If thou to the north, I to the south: if thou to the south, I to the north. 
Gen 13:10 And Lot uplifted his eyes towards (the place of) fornication; and beheld all the plain of Jardena that it was altogether well watered, before the Lord in his wrath had destroyed Sedom and Amorah; a land admirable for trees, as the garden of the Lord, and for fruitage, as the land of Mizraim as thou goest up to Zoar. 
Gen 13:11 And Lot chose to him all the plain of Jardena; and Lot journeyed from the east, and they separated the one man from his brother. 
Gen 13:12 Abram dwelt in the land of Kenaan, and Lot dwelt in the towns of the plain, and spread his tabernacle towards Sedom. 
Gen 13:13 And the men of Sedom were depraved in their wealth one with another, and they sinned in their bodies; they sinned with open nakedness, and the shedding of innocent blood, and practiced strange worship, and rebelled greatly against the name of the Lord.
Gen 13:14 And the Lord said to Abram, after that Lot had separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look, from the place where thou art, to the north and to the south, to the east and to the west: 
Gen 13:15 for all the land that thou seest will I give unto thee, and to thy sons, for ever. 
Gen 13:16 And I will make thy sons manifold as the dust of the earth, as that, as it is impossible for a man to number the dust of the earth, so also it shall be impossible to number thy sons. 
Gen 13:17 Arise journey in the land, and make occupation of it in length and breadth; for to thee will I give it. 
Gen 13:18 And Abram stretched his tent (and made folds) for oxen and sheep, and came and dwelt in the vale of Mamre which is in Hebron, and builded there an altar before the Lord.
Gen 14:1 And it was in the days of Amraphel,--he is Nimrod, who commanded Abram to be cast into the furnace; he was then king of Pontos; Ariok, (so called) because he was (arik) tall among the giants, king of Thalasar, Kedarlaomer, (so called) because he had bound himself (or gone over) among the bondmen of the king of Elam, and Thidal, crafty as a fox, king of the peoples subjected to him, 
Gen 14:2 – made war with Bera, whose deeds were evil, king of Sedom, and with Birsha, whose deeds were with the wicked, king of Amora: Shinab, who had hated his father, king of Admah, and Shemebar, who had corrupted himself with fornication, king of Zeboim; and the king of the city which consumed (Bela) the dwellers thereof, which is Zoar. 
Gen 14:3 All these were joined in the vale of the gardens (paredesaia), the place that produced the streamlets of waters that empty themselves into the sea of salt. 
Gen 14:4 Twelve years they had served Kedarlaomer; and in the thirteenth year they had rebelled. 
Gen 14:5 And in the fourteenth year came Kedarlaomer and the kings who were with him, and smote the Giants (gibboraia) which were in Ashtaroth-Karniam, and the Strong who were in Hametha, and the Terrible who were in the plain of Kiriathaim, 
Gen 14:6 and the Choraee (dwellers in caverns) who were in the high mountains of Begala, unto the valley of Pharan, which was nigh upon the edge of the desert.
Gen 14:7 And they returned, and came to the place where was rendered the judgment of Mosheh the prophet, to the fountain of the waters of Strife, which is Requam. And they smote all the fields of the Amalkaee, and also the Emoraee, who dwelt in En-gedi. 
Gen 14:8 And the king of Sedom, and the king of Amorah, and the kind of Admah, and the king of Zeboim, and the king of the city which consumed its inhabitants, which is Zoar, went forth, and set the array of battle against them in the valley of the gardens; 
Gen 14:9 with Kedarlaomer king of Elam, and Thidal king of the nations obedient to him, and Amraphel king of Pontos, and Ariok king of Thelasar; four kings arrayed in battle against five.
Gen 14:10 And the valley of the gardens had many pits filled with bitumen: and the kings of Sedom and Amora fled away, and fell there; and they who were left fled to the mountains. 
Gen 14:11 And they took all the property of Sedom and Amora, and all their food, and went. 
Gen 14:12 And they made captive Lot the son of Abram's brother, and his property, and went. And he had dwelt in Sedom.
Gen 14:13 And Og came, who had been spared from the giants that died in the deluge, and had ridden protected upon the top of the ark, and sustained with food by Noah; not being spared through high righteousness, but that the inhabitants of the world might see the power of the Lord, and say, Were there not giants who in the first times rebelled against the Lord of the world, and perished from the earth? But when these kings made war, behold, Og, who was with them, said in his heart, I will go and show Abram concerning Lot, who is led captive, that he may come and deliver him from the hands of the kings into whose hands he has been delivered. And he arose and came, upon the eve of the day of the Pascha, and found him making the unleavened cakes. Then showed he to Abram the Hebrew, who dwelt in the valleys of Mamre Amoraah, brother of Eshkol and brother of Aner, who were men of covenant with Abram. 
Gen 14:14 And when Abram heard that his brother was made captive, he armed his young men who were trained for war, grown up in his house; but they willed not to go with him. And he chose from them Eliezer the son of Nimrod, who was equal in strength to all the three hundred and eighteen; and he pursued unto Dan. 
Gen 14:15 And he divided them at night in the way; a part were to engage with the kings, and a part were hidden to smite the firstborn of Egypt. And he arose, he and his servants, and smote them, and pursued them which remained of them unto (the place) of the memorial of sin which was to be in Dan, from the north of Darmesek. 
Gen 14:16 And he brought back all the substance, and also Lot his brother and his substance he brought back, and also the women and the people. 
Gen 14:17 And the king of Sedom came forth, after that he returned from destroying Kedarlaomer and the kings who were with him, to meet him at the plain of Mephana, which was the king's race-course. 
Gen 14:18 And Malka Zadika, who was Shem bar Noah, the king of Yerushalem, came forth to meet Abram, and brought forth to him bread and wine; and in that time he ministered before Eloha Ilaha. 
Gen 14:19 And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the Lord God Most High, who for the righteous possesseth the heavens and the earth. 
Gen 14:20 And blessed be Eloha Ilaha, who hath made thine enemies as a shield which receiveth a blow. And he gave to him one of ten, of all which he brought back.
Gen 14:21 And the king of Sedom said to Aram, Give me the souls of the men of my people whom thou hast brought back, and the substance take to thyself. 
Gen 14:22 And Abram said to the king of Sedom, I have uplifted my hands in an oath before the Lord God the Most High, who for the just possesseth his possession of the heavens and the earth, 
Gen 14:23 if from a thread to the latchet of a sandal I receive any thing of all that is thine; lest thou magnify thyself in saying, I have enriched Abram from mine own. 
Gen 14:24 Have I not power over all the spoil?--Apart from what the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men who went with me, Aner, Eshkol, and Mamre, they also receiving their portion.
Gen 15:1 After these words, when the kings had gathered together, and had fallen before Abram; and four kings had been slain, and nine hosts brought back, Abram reasoned in his heart, and said, Woe to me, because I have received the reward of my appointments in this world, and have no portion in the world to come. Or peradventure the brethren and friends of those who have been slain will combine in legions and come against me; or that at that time there was found with me the reward of a little righteousness, so that they fell before me; but the second time reward may not be found with me, and by me the name of the Heavens may be profaned. Thereupon was the word (pithgama) of the Lord with Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not; for if these men should gather together in legions and come against thee, My Word (Memra) will be thy shield: and also if these fall before thee in this world, the reward of thy good works shall be kept, and be prepared before Me in the world to come, great exceedingly.
Gen 15:2 And Abram said, Lord God, great blessings hast Thou given me, and great (are they which it is) before Thee to give me: nevertheless, what profit is to me, when I pass from the world without children, and Eliezer the manager (bar pharnasath, the son of sustenance) of my house, by whose hands signs were wrought for (or to) me in Darmasek, expects to be my heir? 
Gen 15:3 And Abram said, Behold, to me Thou hast not given a son; and, behold, the manager of my house will be my heir. 
Gen 15:4 And, behold, a word from before the Lord was to him, saying, He shall not be thine heir; but a son whom thou wilt beget shall be thy heir. 
Gen 15:5 And He brought him forth without, and said, Look up now to the heavens, and number the stars, if thou art able to number them: and he said, So will be thy sons. 
Gen 15:6 And he believed in the Lord, and had faith in the (Memra) Word of the Lord, and He reckoned it to him for righteousness (lizeku), because he parleyed not before him with words. 
Gen 15:7 And He said to him, I am the Lord who brought thee out of the fiery furnace of the Kasdai, to give thee this land to inherit. 
Gen 15:8 And he said, Lord God, by what may I know that I shall be the heir of it? 
Gen 15:9 And He said, Bring Me oblations, and offer before Me an heifer of three years, and a goat of three years, a ram of three years, and a dove, and the young of a pigeon. 
Gen 15:10 And he brought all these before Him, and divided them in the midst, and set in order every division over against its fellow; but the fowl he divided not. 
Gen 15:11 And there came down idolatrous peoples which are like to unclean birds, to steal away the sacrifices of Israel; but the righteousness of Abram was a shield over them. 
Gen 15:12 And when the sun was nearing to set, a deep sleep was thrown upon Abram: and, behold, four kingdoms arose to enslave his children: Terror, which is Bavel; Darkness, which is Madai; Greatness, which is Javan; Decline, which is Pheras, which is to fall, and to have no uplifting, and from whence it is to be that the children of Israel will come up. 
Gen 15:13 And he said to Abram, Knowing, thou must know, that thy sons shall dwell in a land not their own, because thou hast not believed, and they will subjugate and afflict them four hundred years; 
Gen 15:14 and also that the people whom they shall serve I will judge with two hundred and fifty plagues, and afterwards they shall go forth into liberty with great riches. 
Gen 15:15 And thou shalt be gathered to thy fathers, thy soul shall rest in peace, and thou shalt be buried in a good old age. 
Gen 15:16 And in the fourth generation of thy sons they will return hither to inherit; because the guilt of the Amoraah is not yet complete. 
Gen 15:17 And when the sun had set there was darkness. And, behold, Abram saw Gehinnam ascending, smoke with flaming coals and burning flakes of fire, werewith the wicked are to be judged. And, behold, He passed between those divisions.
Gen 15:18 In that day the Lord ordained a covenant with Abram, that He would not judge therein his sons, but would deliver them from the kingdom, saying, To thy sons will I give this land, from Nilos of Mizraim unto the great river, the river Pherath, 
Gen 15:19 the Shalmia, and the Kenizah, and Kadmonaah, and the 
Gen 15:20 Hittaee, and the Pherizaee, and Gibaraee, and the 
Gen 15:21 Emoraee, and the Kinaanaee, and the Girgeshaee, and the Jebusaee.
Gen 16:1 But Sara, the wife of Abram, had not borne to him. But he had a handmaid, a Mizreitha, and her name was Hagar, a daughter of Pharoh, whom he gave to him as a handmaid at the time that he received her, being struck by the Word from before the Lord. 
Gen 16:2 And Sara said to Abram, Behold, now, the Lord hath restrained me from bearing, go to my handmaid and set her free; perhaps I may be builded by her. And Abram hearkened to the word of Sara. 
Gen 16:3 And Sara the wife of Abram took Hagar the Mizreitha handmaid, when Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Kenaan, and set her free, and gave her to Abram her husband to wife. 
Gen 16:4 And he went unto Hagar, and she conceived; and she saw that she had conceived, and the honour of her mistress was despised in her eyes.
Gen 16:5 And Sara said to Abram, All my affliction is from thee. Being secure that thou wouldst do me justice, I left the land and house of my father, and came up with thee to a foreign land; and forasmuch as I was not able to become a mother, I set free my handmaid, and gave her to lie in thy bosom; and she seeth that she had conceived, and mine honour is despised before her. But now is my affliction manifest before the Lord, who will spread peace between me and thee, and the land shall be replenished from us, nor shall we need the help of the progeny of Hagar the daughter of Pharoh bar Nimrod, who threw thee into the furnace of fire.
Gen 16:6 And Abram said to Sara, Behold, thy handmaid is under thy authority: do to her what is right in thine eyes. And Sara afflicted her, and she escaped from before her. 
Gen 16:7 And the Angel of the Lord found her at the fountain of waters in the desert; at the fountain of waters which is in the way to Chagra. 
Gen 16:8 And He said, Hagar, handmaid of Sara, whence comest thou, and whither does thou go? And she said, From before Sara my mistress I have escaped. 
Gen 16:9 And the Angel of the Lord said to her, Return to thy mistress, and be subject under her hand. 
Gen 16:10 And the Angel of the Lord said to her, Multiplying I will multiply thy sons, and they shall not be numbered for multitude. 
Gen 16:11 And the Angel of the Lord said to her, Behold, thou art with child, and thou wilt bear a son, and thou shalt call his name Ishmael, because thy affliction is revealed before the Lord. 
Gen 16:12 And he shall be like the wild ass among men: his hands shall take vengeance of his adversaries, and the hands of his adversaries be put forth to do him evil; and in the presence of all his brethren shall he be commingled, (yitharbeb, Arabized,) and shall dwell. 
Gen 16:13 And she gave thanks before the Lord whose Word spake to her, and thus said, Thou art He who livest and art eternal; who seest, but art not seen! for she said, For, behold, here is revealed the glory of the Shekina of the Lord after a vision. 
Gen 16:14 Wherefore she called the well, The Well at which the Living and Eternal One was revealed; and, behold, it is situate between Rekam and Chalutsa. 
Gen 16:15 And Hagar bare Abram a son, and Abram called the name of his son whom Hagar bare, Ishmael. 
Gen 16:16 And Abram was the son of eighty-six years when Hagar bare Ishmael to Abram.
Gen 17:1 And Abram was the son of ninety and nine years, and the Lord appeared to Abram, and said to him, I am El Shadai; serve before Me and be perfect (shelim) in thy flesh. 
Gen 17:2 And I will set My covenant between My Word and thee, and will multiply thee very greatly. 
Gen 17:3 And because Abram was not circumcised, he was not able to stand, but he bowed himself upon his face; and the Lord spake with him, saying, 
Gen 17:4 Behold, I have confirmed (or divided) my covenant with thee; and thou shalt be the father of many peoples. 
Gen 17:5 And thy name shall be no more called Abram, but Abraham shall be thy name, because to be the father of a great multitude of peoples have I appointed thee. 
Gen 17:6 And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and will set thee for congregations; and kings ruling over peoples shall come forth from thee. 
Gen 17:7 And I have established My covenant between My Word and thee, and thy sons after thee in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to thee and to thy sons after thee. 
Gen 17:8 And I will give to thee and to thy sons after thee the land of thy habitation, all the land of Kenaan, for an everlasting possession: and I will be to them Eloha. 
Gen 17:9 And the Lord said to Abraham, And thou shalt observe my covenant, thou and thy sons after thee in their generations. 
Gen 17:10 This is My covenant, that you shall observe between My Word and you, and your sons after you:--Every male of you being circumcised, though he have not a father to circumcise him. 
Gen 17:11 And you shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin, as a sign of the covenant between My Word and you. 
Gen 17:12 And the son of eight days shall be circumcised among you, every male in your generations; from him who is brought up in your house, or bought with your silver, unto every son of the peoples who is not of you. 
Gen 17:13 He who is circumcised shall circumcise him who is brought up among you, or bought with your silver; and it shall be My covenant in your flesh for a covenant for ever. 
Gen 17:14 And the uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, unless he have some one to circumcise him, that man shall be cut off from his people; he hath made My covenant to pass away. 
Gen 17:15 And the Lord said to Abraham, The name of Sara thy wife shall be no more called Sara; for Sarah shall be her name. 
Gen 17:16 And I will bless in her body, and will also give from her a son to thee, and I will bless, him, and he shall be for assemblies, and kings ruling over nations shall be from her.
Gen 17:17 And Abraham fell on his face, and wondered, and said in his heart, Shall the son of a hundred years have progeny, and Sarah, the daughter of ninety years, bear a child? 
Gen 17:18 And Abraham said before the Lord, May not Ishmael be established, and serve before Thee? 
Gen 17:19 And the Lord said, In truth Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name Izhak; and with him I will confirm My covenant for an everlasting covenant to his sons after him. 
Gen 17:20 And concerning Ishmael I have heard thy prayer. Behold, I have blessed him; and I will spread him abroad, and multiply him very greatly. Twelve princes shall he beget, and I will give him to be a great people. 
Gen 17:21 But My covenant will I establish with Izhak, whom Sarah shall bear to thee at this time in the year after. 
Gen 17:22 And He ceased speaking with him; and the Glory of the Lord ascended from Abraham.
Gen 17:23 And Abraham took Ishmael his son, and all brought up in his house, and all bought with money, every male among the household people of Abraham, and he circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the same day in which the Lord spake with him. 
Gen 17:24 And Abraham was the son of ninety and nine years when he circumcised the flesh of his foreskin. 
Gen 17:25 And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old when he circumcised the foreskin of his flesh. 
Gen 17:26 In the same day, in the fourteenth year, was Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his son. 
Gen 17:27 And every man of his house, the house-trained, and the purchased with money of the sons of the people, was circumcised with him.
Gen 18:1 AND the glory of the Lord was revealed to him in the valley of Mamre; and he, being ill from the pain of circumcision, sat at the door of the tabernacle in the fervour (or strength) of the day. 
Gen 18:2 And he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, three angels in the resemblance of men were standing before him; (angels) who had been sent from the necessity of three things;--because it is not possible for a ministering angel to be sent for more than one purpose at a time;--one, then, had come to make known to him that Sarah should bear a man-child; one had come to deliver Lot; and one to overthrow Sedom and Amorah. And when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the door of the tent, and bowed himself on the earth.
Gen 18:3 And he said, I beseech, by the mercies (that are) before Thee, O Lord, if now I have found favour before Thee, that the glory of Thy Shekina may not now ascend from Thy servant, until I have set forth provisions 
Gen 18:4 {Abraham again said to these men, Let a little water be brought, and wash your feet, and recline} under the tree. 
Gen 18:5 And I will bring food of bread, that you may strengthen your hearts, and give thanks in the Name of the Word of the Lord, and afterwards pass on. For therefore at the time of repast are you come, and have turned aside to your servant to take food. And they said, Thou hast spoken well; do according to thy word. 
Gen 18:6 And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said to her, Hasten three measures of flour-meal, mix and make cakes. 
Gen 18:7 And unto the flock ran Abraham, and took a calf, tender and fat, and gave to a young man, and hastened to make prepared meats; 
Gen 18:8 and he took rich cream and milk and the calf which the young man had made into prepared meats, and set them before them, according to the way and conduct (hilkath) of the creatures of the world; and he served before them, and they sat under the tree; and he quieted himself (to see) whether they would eat.
Gen 18:9 And they said to him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, she is in the tent. 
Gen 18:10 And one of them said, Returning I will return to thee in the coming year; and you shall be revived, and, behold, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah was hearkening at the door of the tent, and Ishmael stood behind her, and marked what the Angel said.
Gen 18:11 But Abraham and Sarah were old, they had mounted (alu) in days, and with Sarah the way of women had ceased. 
Gen 18:12 And Sarah wondered in her heart, saying After that I am old shall I have conceptions, and my lord Abraham is old? 
Gen 18:13 And the Lord said to Abraham, Why hath Sarah so laughed, saying, Can it be in truth that I shall bear, being old? 
Gen 18:14 Is it possible to hide anything from before the Lord? At the gracious time I will return to thee, in the time when you shall be revived, and Sarah shall have a son. 
Gen 18:15 And Sarah denied and said, I wondered not; for she was afraid. And the Angel said, Fear not: yet in truth thou didst laugh.
Gen 18:16 And the angels, who had the likeness of men, arose from thence, and the one who had made known the tidings to Sarah ascended to the high heavens; and two of them looked toward Sedom; and Abraham went with them. 
Gen 18:17 And the Lord said, with His Word, I cannot hide from Abraham that which I am about to do; and it is right that before I do it, I should make it known to him. For 
Gen 18:18 Abraham is to be a great and mighty people, and through him shall all the peoples of the earth be blessed. 
Gen 18:19 Because his holiness (piety, chasidutha) is manifest before Me, (and) that he will instruct his sons, and the men of his house after him, to keep the ways that are right before the Lord, to do justice and judgment, that the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which He hath spoken concerning him.
Gen 18:20 And the Lord said to the ministering angels, The cry of Sedom and Amorah, because they oppress the poor, and decree that whosoever giveth a morsel to the needy shall be burned with fire, is therefore great, and their guilt exceedingly weighty. 
Gen 18:21 I will now appear, and see whether, as the cry of a damsel torn away, which ascendeth before Me, they have made completion of their sins; (or, whether they have made an end of their sins;) and if they have wrought repentance, shall they not be as (if) innocent before Me? and as if not knowing, I will not punish.
Gen 18:22 And the angels who had the likeness of men, turned thence and went towards Sedom. And Abraham now supplicated mercy for Lot, and ministered in prayer before the Lord. 
Gen 18:23 And Abraham prayed and said, Wilt Thou destroy in Thy displeasure the innocent with the guilty? 
Gen 18:24 Perhaps there are fifty innocent persons within the city, who pray before Thee,--ten for every city, of all the five cities of Sedom, Amorah, Admah, Zeboim, and Zoar. Wilt Thou in Thy displeasure destroy and not forgive the country, on account of the fifty innocent ones who are in it? Unholy would it be before Thee to do according to this word, to slay the innocent with the guilty, and to make the innocent to be as the guilty! 
Gen 18:25 That be unholy with Thee. It cannot be that One who is the Judge of all the earth should not do justice. 
Gen 18:26 And the Lord said, If I find in Sedom fifty innocent in the midst of the city who pray before Me, I will forgive all the land on their account. 
Gen 18:27 And Abraham responded, and said, I pray for mercy. Behold, now, I have begun to speak before the Lord; I, who am as dust and ashes. 
Gen 18:28 Perhaps of the fifty innocent persons, five may be wanting. On account of the five who may be wanting to Zoar, wilt Thou destroy the whole city? And He said, I will not destroy it, if I find there forty and five. 
Gen 18:29 And he added yet to speak before Him, and said, Perhaps there may be forty found there; ten for each city of the four cities, and Zoar, whose guilt is lighter, forgive thou for Thy mercy's sake. And he said, I will not make an end for the sake of the forty innocent ones. 
Gen 18:30 And he said, Let not the displeasure of the Lord, the Lord of all the world, wax strong against me, and I will speak. Perhaps thirty who pray may be found there, ten for each of the three cities, and Zeboim and Zoar forgive them for Thy mercy's sake. And He said, I will not make an end if I find thirty there. 
Gen 18:31 And he said, Imploring mercy, I have now begun to speak before the Lord, the Lord of all the world. Perhaps twenty who pray may be found; ten in each of the two cities, and the three forgive Thou for Thy mercy's sake! And He said, I will not destroy for the sake of the twenty innocent. 
Gen 18:32 And he said, I implore mercy before Thee! Let not the anger of the Lord,the Lord of all the world, grow strong, and I will speak only this time. Perhaps ten may be found there; and I and they will pray for mercy upon all the land, and Thou wilt forgive them. And He said, I will not destroy for the sake of the ten who may be innocent. 
Gen 18:33 And the majesty of the {Shekinah of the} Lord went up when He had ceased to speak with Abraham; and Abraham returned to his place.
Gen 19:1 Two angels came to Sedom at the evening; and Lot sat in the gate of Sedom. And Lot saw, and rose up to meet them from the gate of the tabernacle. And he bowed his face to the ground, 
Gen 19:2 and said, I beg now, my lords, turn now hither, and enter the house of your servant, and lodge, and wash your feet; and you will arise and proceed on your way. And they said to him, No; for in the street we will lodge. 
Gen 19:3 And he persuaded them earnestly, and they turned aside to be with him; and they entered his house, and he made a repast for them, and prepared unleavened cakes. And it seemed to him as if they did eat.
Gen 19:4 They had not yet lain down, when the wicked men of the city, the men of Sedom, came round upon the house, from the youth to the old man, all the people throughout. 
Gen 19:5 And they cried to Lot, and said to him, Where are the men who entered with thee tonight? Bring them out to us, and we will lie with them. 
Gen 19:6 And Lot went out to them to the gate, and shut the door after him. 
Gen 19:7 And he said, I pray, my brethren, do not thus wickedly. 
Gen 19:8 Behold, now, I have two daughters who have had no dealing with a man; I would now bring even them out to you to do to them as is meet before you, rather than you should do evil to these men, because they have entered in to lodge under the shadow of my roof.
Gen 19:9 And they said, Give up this. And they said, Did not this come alone to sojourn among us? and, behold, he is making himself a judge, and judging the whole of us. But now we will do worse to thee than to them. And they prevailed against the man, against Lot, greatly, and came near, to shatter the door. 
Gen 19:10 And the Men stretched forth their hands, and brought Lot unto them in the house, and shut the door. 
Gen 19:11 But the men who were at the gate of the house they struck with a suffusion of the eyes, from the young to the old, and they wearied themselves to find the gate. 
Gen 19:12 And the Men said to Lot, Hast thou yet in this city kinsman or brother? Thy sons-in-law, thy sons and thy daughters, take forth from the place; 
Gen 19:13 {for we are about to destroy this place,} for the cry of it before the Lord is great, and the Lord hath sent us to destroy it. 
Gen 19:14 And Lot went forth, and spake with his sons-in-law who had taken his daughters, and said, Arise, come forth from this place; for the Lord destroyeth the city. But the word was as a wonder, (and he) as a man ranting, in the eyes of his sons-in-law. 
Gen 19:15 And at the time that the morning was about to uprise, the angels were urgent upon Lot, saying, Up, take thy wife and thy two daughters who are with you, lest you perish in the condemnation of the inhabitants of the city. 
Gen 19:16 But he delayed: and the men laid hold on his hand, and on the hand of his wife, and on the hand of his two daughters, for mercy from the Lord was upon them. And they brought them forth, and set them without the city. 
Gen 19:17 And it was that as they led them without, one of them returned into Sedom, to destroy it; and one remained with Lot, and said to him, Be merciful to your life; look not behind you, and stand not in all the plain; to the mountain escape, or you perish. 
Gen 19:18 And Lot said to him, I beseech of thee endure with me a little hour, until I have prayed for mercy from before the Lord. 
Gen 19:19 Behold, now, thy servant hath found mercy before Thee, and Thou hast multiplied the kindness Thou hast done me in saving my life, and I am not able to escape to the mountain, lest evil overtake me, and I die. 
Gen 19:20 Behold, now, I pray, this city, it is a near habitation, and convenient (for us) to escape thither; and it is small, and the guilt thereof light. I will flee thither, then. Is it not a little one? and my life shall be preserved. 
Gen 19:21 And He said, Behold, I have accepted thee in this matter also, that I will not overthrow the city for which thou hast spoken, to destroy it, that thou mayest escape to it. 
Gen 19:22 Hasten and flee thither: for I cannot do any thing till thou have entered there. Therefore he called the name of the city Zoar.
Gen 19:23 The sun had passed the sea, and come forth upon the earth, at the end of three hours, and Lot entered into Zoar.
Gen 19:24 And the Word of the Lord had caused showers of favour to descend upon Sedom and Amorah, to the intent that they might work repentance, but they did it not: so that they said, Wickedness is not manifest before the Lord. Behold, then, there are now sent down upon them sulphur and fire from before the Word of the Lord from Heaven. 
Gen 19:25 And He overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and the herbage of the earth.
Gen 19:26 And his wife looked after the angel, to know what would be in the end of her father's house, for she was of the daughters of the Sedomaee; and because she sinned by salt (bemilcha) she was manifestly punished; behold, she was made a statue of salt.
Gen 19:27 And Abraham arose in the morning (and went) to the place where he had ministered in prayer before the Lord. 
Gen 19:28 And he looked towards Sedom and Amorah, and all the land of the plain, and saw, and, behold, the smoke of the land went up as the smoke of a furnace.
Gen 19:29 And it was when the Lord destroyed the cities of the plain, that He remembered the righteousness of Abraham, and sent forth Lot from the midst of the overthrow, when He overthrew the cities wherein Lot had dwelt.
Gen 19:30 And Lot went up from Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; because he feared to reside in Zoar. And he dwelt in a cavern, he and his two daughters. 
Gen 19:31 And the elder said to the less, Our father is old, and there is no man in the land to come to us after the way of the whole earth: 
Gen 19:32 come, let us make our father drink wine, and when he is drunken we will lie with him, and raise up sons from our father. 
Gen 19:33 And they made their father drink wine that night, and he was drunk. And the elder arose, and lay with her father, nor did he know when she lay down, nor when she arose. 
Gen 19:34 And it was the day following, and the elder said to the less, Behold, now, I lay my evening with the father; let us make him drink wine this night also, that he may be drunk; and go thou and lie with him, that we may raise up sons from our father. 
Gen 19:35 And they made their father drink wine that night also, and he was drunk, and the younger arose, and lay with him; and he knew not in her lying down nor in her rising up. 
Gen 19:36 And the two daughters of Lot became with child by their father. 
Gen 19:37 And the elder brought forth a son, and she called his name Moab, because from her father she had conceived. He is the father of the Moabaee unto this day. 
Gen 19:38 And the younger also brought forth a son, and she called his name Bar-Ammi, because he was the son of her father. He is the father of the Ammonite people unto this day.
Gen 20:1 And Abraham went on from thence to the land of the south, and dwelt between Rekam and Chagra, and had his habitation in Gerar. 
Gen 20:2 And Abraham said con-cerning Sarah his wife, She is my sister. And Abimelek, king of Gerar, sent and took Sarah. 
Gen 20:3 And a word came from before the Lord unto Abimelek, in a dream of the night, and said to him, Behold, thou diest, because of the woman whom thou hast carried away, and she a man's wife. 
Gen 20:4 But Abimelek had not come nigh to defile her; and he said, Lord, shall the son of a people who hath not sinned, and whom it is right to absolve in the judgment, be killed? 
Gen 20:5 Did he not tell me, She is my sister? and did not she also say, He is my brother? In the truthfulness of my heart and the innocency of my hands have I done this. 
Gen 20:6 And the Word of the Lord said to him in a dream, Before Me also it is manifest that in the truthfulness of thy heart thou didst this, and so restrained I thee from sinning before Me; therefore I would not permit thee to come near her. 
Gen 20:7 And now let the wife of the man return; for he is a prophet; he will pray for thee, and thou shalt live: but if thou wilt not let her return, know that dying thou shalt die, thou and all who are thine. 
Gen 20:8 And Abimelek arose in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these words before them; and the men feared greatly. 
Gen 20:9 And Abimelek called Abraham, and said, What hast thou done to us? And in what have I sinned against thee? For thou hast brought upon me and upon my kingdom a great sin. Thou hast wrought with me works that are not right. 
Gen 20:10 And Abimelek said to Abraham, What hast thou seen, that thou didst this thing? 
Gen 20:11 And Abraham said, Because I said in my heart, The fear of the Lord is not in this place, and they will kill me for the sake of my wife. 
Gen 20:12 But in truth she is my sister, the daughter of my father's brother, but not of the kindred of my mother; and she became my wife. 
Gen 20:13 And it was when they sought to turn me aside to the wor-ship of idols, and I went forth from my father's house, that I said to her, This is the kindness thou shalt do me: in every place to which we come, say concerning me, He is my brother. 
Gen 20:14 And Abimelek took sheep, and restored Sarah his wife to him. 
Gen 20:15 {And Abimelech said, Behold, my land is before you; and wherever is right in your eyes, dwell.} 
Gen 20:16 And to Sarah he said, Behold, I have given a thousand sileen of silver to thy brother; behold, they are to thee a veil of the eyes, inasmuch as thou wast hidden from thine husband one night, and I would have seen thee: for were I to give all that I have it would not suffice (or be proportionate). And the words were debated. And Abraham knew that Abimelek had not come near Sarah his wife.
Gen 21:1 And the Lord remembered Sarah according to that which He had said to her; and the Lord wrought a miracle for Sarah like to that for which Abraham had spoken in prayer for Abimelek. 
Gen 21:2 And she conceived, and Sarah bare to Abraham a son, who was like to himself in his age, at the time of which the Lord had spoken to him. 
Gen 21:3 And Abraham called the name of his son whom Sarah had borne him Izhak. 
Gen 21:4 And Abraham circumcised Izhak his son, when the son of eight days, as the Lord had commanded him. 
Gen 21:5 And Abraham was the son of an hundred years when Izhak his son was born to him. 
Gen 21:6 And Sarah said, The Lord hath done wondrously for me; all who hear will wonder at me. 
Gen 21:7 And she said, How faithful was the messenger who announced to Abraham, and said, Sarah will nurse children, for she shall bring forth a son in her old age! 
Gen 21:8 And the child grew and was weaned. And Abraham made a great feast on the day when Izhak was weaned. 
Gen 21:9 And Sarah observed the son of Hagar the Mizreitha, whom she bare to Abraham, mocking with a strange worship, and bowing to the Lord. 
Gen 21:10 And she said to Abraham, Cast out this handmaid and her son: for it is not possible for the son of this handmaid to inherit with my son; and he to make war with Izhak. 
Gen 21:11 And the thing was very evil in Abraham's eyes, on account of Ishmael his son, who would practise a strange worship. 
Gen 21:12 And the Lord said to Abraham, Let it not be evil in thine eyes on account of the youth who goeth forth from thy nurturning, and of thy handmaid whom thou sendest away. Hearken unto all that Sarah saith to thee, because she is a prophetess; for in Izhak shall sons be called unto thee; and this son of the handmaid shall not be genealogized after thee. 
Gen 21:13 But the son of the handmaid have I set for a predatory people (le-am leistim), because he is thy son. 
Gen 21:14 And Abraham rose up in the morning, and took bread and a cruse of water, and gave to Hagar to bear upon her shoulder, and bound it to her loins, to signify that she was a servant, and the child, and dismissed her with a letter of divorce (be-gitta). And she went, and wandered from the way into the desert which was hard by Beersheba. 
Gen 21:15 And it was when they came to the entrance of the desert, they remembered to wander after strange worship; and Ishmael was seized with a burning thirst, and drank of the water till all the water was consumed from the cruse. And he was dried up, and withered in his flesh; and she carried him, and was exhausted, and she cried unto the Fear of his father, and He answered her not; and she laid the youth down at once under one of the trees. 
Gen 21:16 And she went and sat on one side, and cast away the idol (or the strange worship), and removed from her son, as the distance of an arrow from the bow; for she said, I am not able to see the death of the child. And she sat over against her son, and lifted up her voice and wept. 
Gen 21:17 And the voice of the youth was heard before the Lord for the righteousness' sake of Abraham; and the Angel of the Lord called to Hagar from heaven, and said, What to thee, Hagar? Faint not, for the voice of the youth is heard before the Lord; neither shall judgment be according to the evil which he will do, but according to the righteousness of Abraham is mercy upon him in the place where he is. 
Gen 21:18 Arise, support the child, and strengthen thine hand in him: for I have set him for a great people. 
Gen 21:19 And the Lord opened her eyes, and showed her a well of water, and she went and filled the cruse with water, and gave the youth to drink. 
Gen 21:20 And the Word of the Lord was the helper of the youth, and he grew and dwelt in the wilderness, and became a skilful master of the bow. 
Gen 21:21 And he dwelt in the wilderness of Pharan, and took for a wife Adisha, but put her away. And his mother took for him Phatima to wife, from the land of Mizraim.
Gen 21:22 And it was at that time that Abimelek and Phikol, chief of his host, spake to Abraham, saying, The Word of the Lord is in thine aid in all whatsoever thou doest. 
Gen 21:23 And now, swear to me here, by the Word of the Lord, that thou wilt not be false with me, nor with my son, nor with the son of my son: according to the kindness which I have done with thee, thou shalt do with me, and with the land in which thou dwellest. 
Gen 21:24 And Abraham said to him, I swear. 
Gen 21:25 And Abraham remonstrated with Abimelek concerning the well of water of which the servants of Abimelek had deprived him. 
Gen 21:26 And Abimelek said, I knew not who did this thing; neither hast thou shown it to me; nor have I heard it from others, till today from thyself. 
Gen 21:27 And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave to Abimelek; and they both made a covenant. 
Gen 21:28 And Abraham set seven lambs apart and separated them from the oxen. 
Gen 21:29 And Abimelek said to Abraham, What are these seven lambs which thou hast set apart? 
Gen 21:30 And he said, That thou mayest take the seven lambs from my hand, to be a testimony for me that I have digged this well. 
Gen 21:31 Therefore he called that well the Well of the Seven Lambs; because there they two did swear. 
Gen 21:32 And they struck a covenant at the Well of the Seven Lambs. And Abimelek and Phikol the Chief of his host arose and returned to the land of the Philistaee. 
Gen 21:33 And he planted a garden, (lit., "a paradise,") at the Well of the Seven Lambs, and prepared in the midst of it food and drink for them who passed by and who returned; and he preached to them there, Confess ye, and believe in the Name of the Word of the Lord, the everlasting God.
Gen 22:1 And it was after these things that Izhak and Ishmael contended; and Ishmael said, It is right that I should inherit what is the father's because I am his firstborn son. And Izhak said, It is right that I should inherit what is the father's, because I am the son of Sarah his wife, and thou art the son of Hagar the handmaid of my mother. Ishmael answered and said, I am more righteous than thou, because I was circumcised at thirteen years; and if it had been my will to hinder, they should not have delivered me to be circumcised; but thou wast circumcised a child eight days; if thou hadst had knowledge, perhaps they chould not have delivered thee to be circumcised. Izhak responded and said, Behold now, today I am thirty and six years old; and if the Holy One, blessed be He, were to require all my members, I would not delay. These words were heard before the Lord of the world, and the Word of the Lord at once tried Abraham, and said to him, Abraham! And he said, Behold me. 
Gen 22:2 And He said, Take now thy son, thy only one whom thou lovest, Izhak, and go into the land of worship, and offer him there, a whole burnt offering, upon one of the mountains that I will tell thee. 
Gen 22:3 And Abraham rose up in the morning and saddled his ass, and took two young men with him, Eliezer and Ishmael, and Izhak his son, and cut the small wood and the figs and the palm, which are provided for the whole burnt offering, and arose and went to the land of which the Lord had told him.
Gen 22:4 On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes and beheld the cloud of glory fuming on the mount, and it was discerned by him afar off. 
Gen 22:5 And Abraham said to his young men, Wait you here with the ass, and I and the young man will proceed yonder, to prove if that which was promised shall be established:--So shall be thy sons:--and we will worship the Lord of the world, and return to you. 
Gen 22:6 And Abraham took the wood of the offering and laid it upon Izhak his son, and in his hand he took the fire and the knife; and they went both of them together.
Gen 22:7 And Izhak spake to Abraham his father and said, My Father! And he said, I am. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: where is the lamb for the offering? 
Gen 22:8 And Abraham said, The Lord will choose for Himself a lamb for the offering. And they went both of them in heart entirely as one. 
Gen 22:9 And they came to the place of which the Lord had told him. And Abraham builded there the altar which Adam had built, which had been destroyed by the waters of the deluge, which Noah has again builded, and which had been destroyed in the age of divisions; and he set the wood in order upon it, and bound Izhak his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood. 
Gen 22:10 And Abraham stretched out his hand, and took the knife to slay his son. And Izhak answered and said to his father, Bind me properly (aright), lest I tremble from the affliction of my soul, and be cast into the pit of destruction, and there be found profaneness in thy offering. (Now) the eyes of Abraham looked on the eyes of Izhak; but the eyes of Izhak looked towards the angels on high, (and) Izhak beheld them, but Abrahm saw them not. And the angels answered on high, Come, behold how these solitary ones who are in the world kill the one the other; he who slayeth delays not; he who is to be slain reacheth forth his neck.
Gen 22:11 And the Angel of the Lord called to him from the heavens, and said to him, Abraham! Abraham! And he said, Behold me. 
Gen 22:12 And He said, Stretch not out thy hand upon the young man, neither do him any evil; for now it is manifest before Me that thou fearest the Lord; neither hast thou withheld thy son the only begotten from Me.
Gen 22:13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw, and, behold, a certain ram which had been created between the evenings of the foundation of the world, was held in the entanglement of a tree by his horns. And Abraham went and took him, and offered him an offering instead of his son. 
Gen 22:14 And Abraham gave thanks and prayed there, in that place, and said, I pray through the mercies that are before Thee, O Lord, before whom it is manifest that it was not in the depth of my heart to turn away from doing Thy decree with joy, that when the children of Izhak my son shall offer in the hour of affliction, this may be a memorial for them; and Thou mayest hear them and deliver them, and that all generations to come may say, In this mountain Abraham bound Izhak his son, and there the Shekina of the Lord was revealed unto him.
Gen 22:15 And the Angel of the Lord called to Abraham the second time from the heavens, 
Gen 22:16 and said, By My Word have I sworn, saith the Lord, forasmuch as thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thy only begotten, 
Gen 22:17 that in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy sons as the stars of the heavens, and they shall be as the sand which is upon the shore of the sea, and thy sons shall inherit the cities before their enemies. 
Gen 22:18 And all the peoples of the earth shall be blessed through the righteousness of thy son, because thou hast obeyed My word.
Gen 22:19 And the angels on high took Izhak and brought him into the school (medresha) of Shem the Great; and he was there three years. And in the same day Abraham returned to his young men; and they arose and went together to the Well of the Seven, and Abraham dwelt at Beira-desheva.
Gen 22:20 And it was after these things, after Abraham had bound Izhak, that Satana came and told unto Sarah that Abraham had killed Izhak. And Sarah arose, and cried out, and was strangled, and died from agony. But Abraham had come, and was resting in the way. And it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcha also hath borne; she hath enlargement, through the righteousness of her sister, for bring forth sons unto Nachor thy brother: 
Gen 22:21 Uts, his firstborn, and Booz, his brother, and Kemuel, master of the Aramean magicians, and 
Gen 22:22 Keshed, and Chazo, and Pildash, and Jidlaph, and Bethuel. 
Gen 22:23 And Bethuel begat Rivekeh. These eight bare Milcha to Nacor the brother of Abraham. 
Gen 22:24 And his concubine, whose name was Rëuma, she also bare Tebach, and Gacham, and Tachash, and Maacha.
Gen 23:1 And the days of the life of Sarah were an hundred and twenty and seven years, the years of the life of Sarah. 
Gen 23:2 And Sarah died in Kiryath Arba, which is Hebron. And Abraham came from the mountain of worship, and found that she was dead; and he sat to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her. 
Gen 23:3 And Abraham rose up from the sight of the face of his dead, and spake with the sons of Hittah, saying, 
Gen 23:4 I am a sojourner and dweller with you; I pray sell me the inheritance of a sepulchre among you, and I will bury my dead there. 
Gen 23:5 And the sons of Hittah responded unto Abraham, saying to him, 
Gen 23:6 Attend to us, our lord. Great before the Lord art thou among us, in the best of our sepulchres bury thy dead: there is not a man of us who will refuse thee his sepulchre, that thou mayest bury thy dead. 
Gen 23:7 And Abraham rose and bowed to the people of the land, the sons of Hittah. 
Gen 23:8 And he spake with them, saying, If it be with the consent of your mind that I bury my dead from before my face, receive of me, and intercede for me before Ephron bar Zochar 
Gen 23:9 that he sell me his double cave which is built in the side of his field, for the full price in silver let him give it me among you, for an inheritance of sepulture. 
Gen 23:10 But Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the presence of the sons of Hittah, of all who entered the gate of his city, saying, 
Gen 23:11 My lord, listen to me: the field I give thee, and the cave which is in it, to thee I give it, as a gift before the sons of my people I give it to thee; go, bury thy dead. 
Gen 23:12 And Abraham bowed before the sons of Hittah. 
Gen 23:13 And he spake with Ephron before the people of the land, saying, Nevertheless, if thou art willing to do me a favour, hear me: I will give thee in silver the price of the field; take (it) of me, and I will bury my dead there. And 
Gen 23:14 Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him, 
Gen 23:15 My lord, hear me: the land, as to its price, would be four hundred sileen of silver; between me and thee what is that? Bury thy dead. 
Gen 23:16 And Abraham hearkened unto Ephron, and Abraham weighed to Ephron the silver which he had named before the sons of Hittah, four hundred sileen of silver, good, passing at every table, and receivable in all transactions. 
Gen 23:17 And he confirmed the purchase of the field of Ephron, in which (was) the double (cave) which is before Mamre, The field, and the cave that is therein, and all the trees that were in the field, in all the boundaries thereof round about, 
Gen 23:18 --Unto Abraham, for a purchased possession, in the presence of the sons of Hittah, (even) of all who entered in at the gate of the city. 
Gen 23:19 And afterwards Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field Kapheilta which is before Mamre, that is, Hebron in the land of Kenaan. 
Gen 23:20 And the field and the cave therein were confirmed unto Abraham for an inheritance of sepulture from the sons of Hittah.
Gen 24:1 And Abraham was old with days, and the Word of the Lord had blessed Abraham with every kind of blessing. 
Gen 24:2 And Abraham said to Eliezer his servant, the senior of his house, who had rule over all his property, Put now thy hand upon the section of my circumcision. 
Gen 24:3 And swear to me in the name of the Word of the Lord God, whose habitation is in heaven on high, the God whose dominion is over the earth, that thou wilt not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Kenaanites among whom I dwell; 
Gen 24:4 but that thou wilt go to the land and the house of my kindred, and take a wife for my son, for Izhak. 
Gen 24:5 And the domestic said to him, suppose the woman may not be willing to come after me to this land; shall I, returning make thy son return to the land from whence thou camest? 
Gen 24:6 And Abraham said to him, Beware, lest thou make my some return thither! 
Gen 24:7 The Lord God, whose seat is in heaven on high, who took me from my father's house, and from the land of my birth; and who spake to me, and sware to me, saying, To thy son will I give this land; He will seasonably send His angel, and thou shalt take a wife for my sone from thence. 
Gen 24:8 But if the woman be not willing to come after thee, thou shalt be innocent from this my oath; only make not my son return thither. 
Gen 24:9 And the servant put his hand upon the circumcised part of Abraham his lord, and sware to him according to this thing.
Gen 24:10 And the servant took ten camels from the camels of his lord, and went: for all the goodly treasures of his lord were in his hand; and he arose and went unto Aram, which was by the Pherat, to the city of Nachor. 
Gen 24:11 And he made the camels lie down without the city by the fountain of waters, at the time of evening, the time when the fillers (of water) come forth. 
Gen 24:12 And he said, Lord God of my master Abraham, prepare thou a proper woman before me today, and deal graciously with my master Abraham. 
Gen 24:13 Behold I stand at the well of waters, and the daughters of the men of the city are coming forth to fill waters. 
Gen 24:14 Let the damsel to whom I say, Reach me now thy pitcher, that I may drink, and she say, Drink, and I will also make my camels drink, be she whom thou hast provided to go to thy servant Izhak; and herein shall I know that Thou hast dealt graciously with my master. 
Gen 24:15 And it was in that little hour, while he had not ceased to speak, that, behold, Rivekah came forth, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcha, the wife of Nachor, the brother of Abraham, and her pitcher was upon her shoulder. 
Gen 24:16 And the damsel was a virgin, very beautiful to behold, and she descended to the fountain and filled her pitcher, and came up. 
Gen 24:17 And the servant ran to meet her, and said, Let me taste now a little water from thy pitcher. 
Gen 24:18 And she said, Drink, my lord; and hastened to let down her pitcher upon her hand, and gave him drink. 
Gen 24:19 And she finished giving him drink, and said, Also for thy camels I will fill until they be satisfied with drinking. 
Gen 24:20 And she hastened and emptied the pitcher into the canal, the place of drinking, and ran again to the well to fill; and she filled for all his camels. 
Gen 24:21 But the man waited, and was silent, to know whether the Lord had prospered his way or not. 
Gen 24:22 And it was when the camels had been satisfied with drink, that the man took an earring of gold, of a drachma in weight, the counterpart of the drachma of the head (money) which her children presented for the work of the sanctuary; and he set two golden bracelets upon her hands, in weight ten sileen of gold; the sum of their weight being the counterpart of the two tables on which were inscribed the Ten Words. 
Gen 24:23 And he said, Whose daughter art thou? Tell me now, if in thy father's house there be room for us to lodge. 
Gen 24:24 And she said, I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcha, whom she bare to Nachor. 
Gen 24:25 And she told him, saying, There is also straw and provender in plenty with us, as also proper room to lodge. 
Gen 24:26 And the man bowed and worshipped before the Lord, who had thus prepared before him a suitable wife. 
Gen 24:27 And he said, Blessed be the Name of the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, who hath not restrained His mercy and His truth from my master; for the sake of his righteousness in the right way hath the Lord led me to the house of my master's brother.
Gen 24:28 ___ 
Gen 24:29 And Rivekah had a brother whose name was Laban. And Laban ran towards the man without at the fountain. 
Gen 24:30 And when Laban saw the ring and the bracelets upon the hands of his sister, and heard the words of Rivekah his sister, saying, Thus hath the man spoken with me; he came to the man, and behold, he stood by the camels at the fountain. 
Gen 24:31 And Laban thought that this was Abraham, and said, Come in, thou blessed of the Lord: wherefore standest thou without, when I have purified the house from strange worship, and have prepared a place for the camels?
Gen 24:32 And the man entered the house, and Laban undid the gear of the camels, and gave the camels straw and provender; and water (to Eliezer) to wash his feet, and the feet of the men who were with him. 
Gen 24:33 And he set in order before him to eat, prepared food in which was poison to kill; but he objected to it, and said, I will not eat, until I have spoken my words. And he said, Speak. 
Gen 24:34 And he said, I am the servant of Abraham. 
Gen 24:35 And the Lord hath blessed my master greatly, and hath increased, and given him sheep and oxen, silver and gold, servants and handmaids, and camels and asses. 
Gen 24:36 And Sarah; my master's wife, bare a son after she was old, and he hath given to him all that he hath. 
Gen 24:37 And my master made me swear, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Kenaanites in whose land I dwell, 
Gen 24:38 but shall go to my kindred, and take a wife for my son. 
Gen 24:39 But I said to my master, Perhaps the woman will not come after me. 
Gen 24:40 And he said to me, The Lord before whom I worship will appoint His angel to be with thee, and will prosper thy way; and thou shalt take a wife for my son from my household, from the race of my father's house. 
Gen 24:41 Then shalt thou be free from my oath: if, when thou art come to the house of my kindred, they give not to thee, thou shalt be free from thy oath.
Gen 24:42 And I came today to the fountain, and said, Lord God of my master ABraham, if now Thou hast prospered the journey upon which I have come, 
Gen 24:43 behold, I stand at the fountain of water,--let the damsel who may come forth to fill, to whom I will say, Give me now a little water to drink from thy pitcher, 
Gen 24:44 and she say, Drink, and for thy camels also will I draw, be the wife whom the Lord hath prepared by His decree for my master's son.
Gen 24:45 I had not yet finished speaking in the thoughts of my heart, when, behold, Rivekah came forth with the pitcher upon (her) shoulder, and went down to the fountain, and filled. And I said, Let me now drink. 
Gen 24:46 And she hastened and let down her pitcher from her, and said, Drink, and I will also give thy camels drink. 
Gen 24:47 And I asked her, and said, Whose daughter art thou? And she said, The daughter of Bethuel, the son of Nachor, whom Milcha bare to him. And I set the jewel upon her brow, and the bracelets on her hand, 
Gen 24:48 and bowed and worshipped before the Lord; and I blessed the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, who had led me in the true way to take the daughter of master's brother for his son.
Gen 24:49 And now, if you will deal kindly and truly with my master, tell me; and if not, tell me, that I may turn to the south or to the north. 
Gen 24:50 And Laban and Bethuel answered and said, The thing hath come forth from before the Lord that Rivekah should be given to Izhak, and we cannot say to thee either evil or good. 
Gen 24:51 Behold, Rivekah is before thee, take and go, and let her be the wife of thy master's son, as the Lord hath spoken.
Gen 24:52 And when Abraham's servant heard these words, he worshipped on the ground before the Lord. 
Gen 24:53 And the servant brought forth vessels of silver and of gold, and vestments, and gave them to Rivekah; and presents give he to her brother and to her mother. 
Gen 24:54 And they ate and drank, he and the men who were with him, and passed the night. And he arose in the morning, and said, Send me away to my master. 
Gen 24:55 But as they were talking in the evening, Bethuel had eaten of that prepared food; and in the morning they found that he was dead. And the brother and mother said therefore, Let the damsel dwell with us the days of one year or ten months, and then she shall go. 
Gen 24:56 And he said, Hinder me not, when the Lord hath prospered my way; let me depart, and I will go to my master. 
Gen 24:57 And they said, We will call Rivekah, and hear what she says. 
Gen 24:58 And they called Rivekah, and said to her, Wilt thou go with this man? And she said, I will go.
Gen 24:59 And they let Rivekah their sister go, and her nurse, and the servant of Abraham, and his men. 
Gen 24:60 And they blessed Rivekah, and said to her, Hitherto thou wast our sister; and now thou art going and art wedded to the righteous; so prosper thou, that from thee may come thousands of myriads; and may thy sons inherit the cities of those who hate them.
Gen 24:61 And Rivekah arose, and her damsel, and they rode upon camels, and went after the man. And the servant took Rivekah with him and journeyed. And as the way was shortened to him in his journey to Padan Aram, so was it shortened to him in his return, that in one day he went, and in one day he returned.
Gen 24:62 And Izhak was coming from the school of the Rabba Shem, by the way of the fountain where had been revealed to him the Living and Eternal One, who seeth, and is not seen; and he resided in the land of the south. 
Gen 24:63 And Izhak went forth to pray upon the face of the field at the time of evening; and he lifted up his eyes, and saw, and, behold, the camels were approaching.
Gen 24:64 And Rivekah lifted up her eyes, and saw Izhak, and she bowed upon the camel. 
Gen 24:65 And she said to the servant, Who is the man (so) majestic and graceful, who walks in the field before us? And the servant said, He is my master. And she took a veil and covered herself.
Gen 24:66 And the servant related to Izhak everything he had done. 
Gen 24:67 And Izhak introduced her into the tabernacle of Sarah his mother, and thereupon the light (again) shined which had gone out at the time of Sarah's death. And he took Rivekah, and she was his wife, and he loved her; for he saw her works that they were upright as the works of his mother. And Izhak was consoled after his mother's death.
Gen 25:1 And Abraham added and took a wife, and her name was Keturah; she is Hagar, who had been bound to him from the beginning. 
Gen 25:2 And she bare to him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midyan, and Yishbak, and Shovack. 
Gen 25:3 And Jokshan begat Sheva and Dedan; and the sons of Dedan were merchants, and negotiators, and chiefs of peoples. 
Gen 25:4 And the sons of Midyan, Eipher, and Ephher, and Honok, and Abida, and Aldaah, all these were the sons of Keturah. 
Gen 25:5 And Abraham gave the gift of all he had to Izhak. 
Gen 25:6 And to the sons of the concubines of Abraham gave Abraham riches and moveable property as gifts, and sent them away from Izhak his son while he (yet) lived; and they went and dwelt eastward in the land of the orient.
Gen 25:7 And this is the number of the days of the life of Abraham, who lived a hundred and seventy and five years. 
Gen 25:8 And Abraham expired, and died in a good old age, aged and satisfied with all good. (Also Ishmael wrought repentance in his days, and afterwards was gathered to his people.) 
Gen 25:9 And Izhak and Ishmael his sons buried him in the double cavern, at the field of Ephran bar Zochar, the Hittite, which is before Mamre; 
Gen 25:10 the field that Abraham purchased of the sons of Hittah: there was Abraham buried and Sarah his wife.
Gen 25:11 And because Abraham had not designed to bless Ishmael, therefore he blessed not Izhak; for had he blessed Izhak and not Ishmael, it would have kept them in enmity. But, after the death of Abraham, the Lord blessed Izhak; and Izhak dwelt near the well at which was revealed the glory of the Living and Eternal One, who seeth and is not seen.
Gen 25:12 And these are the generations of Ishmael bar Abraham, whom Hagar the Mizreitha, the handmaid of Sarah, bare unto Abraham. 
Gen 25:13 And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael by their names, according to their generations. The firstborn of Ishmael, Neboi, and Arab, and Abdeel, and Mibsham, 
Gen 25:14 --Hearing, Silence, Patience, 
Gen 25:15 and Sharpness: and Tema, Yetur, Naphish, and Kedemah. 
Gen 25:16 These were the sons of Ishmael, and these their names in their villages, and in their fenced dwellings, twelve chiefs of their peoples. 
Gen 25:17 And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, a hundred and thirty and seven years; and he was coverted in repentance, and expired, and was gathered to his people. 
Gen 25:18 And they dwelt from Hindiki unto Chalutsa, which is in face of Mizraim from going up to Athur. Before the face of all his brethren he dwelt in his possession.
Gen 25:19 These are the generations of Izhak bar Abraham. And because the appearance of Izhak resembled the appearance of Abraham, the sons of men said, In truth Abraham begat Izhak. 
Gen 25:20 And Izhak was the son of forty years when he took Rivekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramite, who was of Padan Aram, the sister of Laban the Aramite, unto him for a wife. 
Gen 25:21 And Izhak went to the mountain of worship, the place where his father had bound him. And Izhak in his prayer turned the attention of the Holy One, blessed be He! from that which He had decreed concerning him who had been childless. And he was enlarged, and Rivekah his wife was with child. 
Gen 25:22 And the children pressed in her womb as men doing battle. And she said, If this is the anguish of a mother, what then are children to me? And she went into the school of Shem Rabba to supplicate mercy before the Lord. 
Gen 25:23 And the Lord said to her, Two peoples are in thy womb, and two kingdoms from thy womb shall be separated; and one kingdom shall be stronger than the other, and the elder shall serve the younger, if the children of the younger will keep the commandments of the Law.
Gen 25:24 And the two hundred and seventy days of her being with child were completed to bring forth; and, behold, twins were in her womb. 
Gen 25:25 And the first came forth wholly red, as a garment of hair: and they called his name Esau, because he was born altogether complete, with the hair of the head, and the beard, and teeth, and grinders. 
Gen 25:26 Afterward came forth his brother, and his hand had hold on the heel of Esau. And they called his name Jakob (Yaakov). And Izhak was a son of sixty years when he beget them.
Gen 25:27 And the lads grew; and Esau was a man of idleness to catch birds and beasts, a man going forth into the field to kill lives, as Nimrod had killed, and Hanok his son. But Jakob was a man peaceful in his words, a minister of the instruction-house of Eber, seeking instruction before the Lord. 
Gen 25:28 And Izhak loved Esau, for words of deceit were in his mouth; but Rivekah loved Jakob.
Gen 25:29 On the day that Abraham died, Jakob dressed pottage of lentiles, and was going to comfort his father. And Esau came from the wilderness, exhausted; for in that day he had committed five transgressions: he had worshipped with strange worship, he had shed innocent blood, he had gone in unto a betrothed damsel, he had denied the life of the world to come, and had despised the birthright. 
Gen 25:30 And Esau said to Jakob, Let me now taste that red pottage, for I am faint, -- therefore he called his name Edom. 
Gen 25:31 And Jakob said, Sell today, as (on this very) day, what thou wouldst hereafter appropriate, thy birthright, unto me. 
Gen 25:32 And Esau said, Behold, I am going to die, and in another world I shall have no life; and what then to me is the birthright, or the portion in the world of which thou speakest? 
Gen 25:33 And Jakob said, Swear to me today that so it shall be. And he sware to him, and sold his birthright to Jakob. 
Gen 25:34 And Jakob gave to Esau bread and pottage fo lentiles. And he ate and drank, and arose and went. And Esau scorned the birthright, and the portion of the world that commeth.
Gen 26:1 And there was a mighty famine in the land of Kenaan, besides the former famine which had been in the days of Abraham; and Izhak went to Abimelek king of the Philistaee at Gerar. 
Gen 26:2 It had been in Izhak's heart to go down to Mizraim; but the Lord appeared to him, and said, Go not down to Mizraim; dwell in the land as I have told thee; 
Gen 26:3 sojourn in the land, and My Word shall be for thy help, and I will bless thee; for to the end to thy sons will I give all these lands, and I will establish the covenant which I have covenanted with Abraham thy father. 
Gen 26:4 And I will multiply thy sons as the stars of the heavens, and will give to thy sons all these lands, and through thy sons shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; 
Gen 26:5 on account that Abraham obeyed My Word, and kept the keeping of My word, My statutes, My covenants, and My laws. 
Gen 26:6 And Izhak dwelt in Gerar. 
Gen 26:7 And the man of the place inquired concerning his wife; and he said, She is my sister: for he reasoned in his heart, Lest the men of the place should kill me for Rivekah, because she was of beautiful appearance. 
Gen 26:8 And it was when days had increased to him in abiding there, that Abimelek the king of the Philistaee looked from a window, and beheld, and Izhak was disporting with Rivekah his wife. 
Gen 26:9 And Abimelek called Izhak, and said, Nevertheless she is thy wife; and why hast thou said, She is my sister? And Izhak answered him, Because I said in my heart, Lest they kill me on her account. 
Gen 26:10 And Abimelek said, Why hast thou done this to us? It might have been that the king, who is the principal of the people, had lain with thy wife, and thou wouldst have brought guilt upon us.
Gen 26:11 And Abimelek instructed all the people, Whoever shall go near to injure this man or his wife, shall verily be put to death. 
Gen 26:12 And Izhak sowed unto righteousness in that land, and found in that year a hundred for one, according to his measure. And the Lord blessed him, 
Gen 26:13 and the man increased, and went forward increasing until he was very great. 
Gen 26:14 And he had flocks of sheep, and herds of cattle, and great cultivation; and the Philistaee envied him. 
Gen 26:15 And all the wells which the servants of his father had digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistaee stopped up and filled with earth.
Gen 26:16 And Abimelek said to Izhak, Go from us; for thou art stronger than we in riches very much. 
Gen 26:17 And Izhak went thence, and sojourned in the vale of Gerar, and dwelt there. 
Gen 26:18 And Izhak digged again the wells of water which the servants of his father had digged in the days of Abraham his father, and which the Philistaee had stopped after Abraham was dead; and he called them by the names his father had called them. 
Gen 26:19 And the servants of Izhak digged in the border of the vale, and found there a well of flowing water. 
Gen 26:20 And the shepherds of Gerar contended with Izhak's shepherds, saying, The water is ours. And it was the will of Heaven, and it dried. But when they returned to Izhak, it flowed. And he called the name of the well (Esek) Contention, because (etheseku) they had quarrelled with him on account of it. 
Gen 26:21 And they digged another well; and they contended for it also; and it dried, and did not flow again. And he called the name of it (Sitnah) Accusation. 
Gen 26:22 And he removed from thence and digged another well, and for that they did not contend as formerly, and he called the name of it (Ravchatha) Spaciousness; for he said, Now hath the Lord given us space to spread us abroad in the land. 
Gen 26:23 And he went up from thence unto Beersheba. 
Gen 26:24 And the Lord appeared to him that night, and said, I am the God of Abraham thy father: fear not; for My Word is for thy help, and I will bless thee, and multiply thy sons for the righteousness' sake of Abraham My servant. 
Gen 26:25 And he builded there an altar, and prayed in the name of the Lord. And he spread his tabernacle there, and the servants of Izhak digged there a well. 
Gen 26:26 And when Izhak went forth from Gerar the wells dried up, and the trees made no fruit; and they felt that it was because they had driven him away, all these things had befallen them. And Abimelek went to him from Gerar, and took his friends to go with him, and Phikol the chief of his host. 
Gen 26:27 And Izhak said to them, Why come you to me that I should pray for you, when you have hated me, and driven me from you? 
Gen 26:28 And they answered, Seeing, we have seen, that the Word of the Lord is for thy help, and for thy righteousness' sake all good hath been to us; but when thou wentest forth from our land the wells dried up, and our trees made no fruit; then we said, We will cause him to return to us
