Chapter 10 The descendants of Noah, and the tower of Babel
1 Now these are the
generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were
sons born after the flood.
2 The sons of Japheth;
Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.
3 And the sons of
Gomer; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.
4 And the sons of
Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.
5 By these were the
isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after
their families, in their nations.
6 And the sons of Ham;
Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan.
7 And the sons of
Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtechah: and the sons of
Raamah; Sheba, and Dedan.
8 And Cush begat
Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth.
9 He was a mighty hunter
before the Lord : wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before
the Lord .
10 And the beginning
of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of
Shinar.
11 Out of that land
went forth Asshur, and builded Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah,
12 And Resen between
Nineveh and Calah: the same is a great city.
13 And Mizraim begat
Ludim, and Anamim, and Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,
14 And Pathrusim, and
Casluhim, (out of whom came Philistim,) and Caphtorim.
15 And Canaan begat
Sidon his first born, and Heth,
16 And the Jebusite,
and the Amorite, and the Girgasite,
17 And the Hivite, and
the Arkite, and the Sinite,
18 And the Arvadite,
and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite: and afterward were the families of the
Canaanites spread abroad.
19 And the border of
the Canaanites was from Sidon, as thou comest to Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou
goest, unto Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboiim, even unto Lasha.
20 These are the sons
of Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their countries, and in
their nations.
21 Unto Shem also, the
father of all the children of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder, even to
him were children born.
22 The children of
Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram.
23 And the children of
Aram; Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.
24 And Arphaxad begat
Salah; and Salah begat Eber.
25 And unto Eber were
born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth
divided; and his brother's name was Joktan.
26 And Joktan begat
Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah,
27 And Hadoram, and
Uzal, and Diklah,
28 And Obal, and
Abimael, and Sheba,
29 And Ophir, and
Havilah, and Jobab: all these were the sons of Joktan.
30 And their dwelling
was from Mesha, as thou goest unto Sephar a mount of the east.
31 These are the sons
of Shem, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, after their
nations.
32 These are the
families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and by
these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
1 And the whole earth
was of one language, and of one speech.
2 And it came to pass,
as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar;
and they dwelt there.
3 And they said one to
another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick
for stone, and slime had they for morter.
4 And they said, Go
to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let
us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole
earth.
5 And the Lord came
down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.
6 And the LORD said,
Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin
to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined
to do.
7 Go to, let us go
down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one
another's speech.
8 So the LORD
scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left
off to build the city.
9 Therefore is the
name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of
all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face
of all the earth.
10 These are the
generations of Shem: Shem was an hundred years old, and begat Arphaxad two
years after the flood:
11 And Shem lived
after he begat Arphaxad five hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.
12 And Arphaxad lived
five and thirty years, and begat Salah:
13 And Arphaxad lived
after he begat Salah four hundred and three years, and begat sons and
daughters.
14 And Salah lived
thirty years, and begat Eber:
15 And Salah lived
after he begat Eber four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.
16 And Eber lived four
and thirty years, and begat Peleg:
17 And Eber lived
after he begat Peleg four hundred and thirty years, and begat sons and
daughters.
18 And Peleg lived
thirty years, and begat Reu:
19 And Peleg lived
after he begat Reu two hundred and nine years, and begat sons and daughters.
20 And Reu lived two
and thirty years, and begat Serug:
21 And Reu lived after
he begat Serug two hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters.
22 And Serug lived
thirty years, and begat Nahor:
23 And Serug lived
after he begat Nahor two hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.
24 And Nahor lived
nine and twenty years, and begat Terah:
25 And Nahor lived
after he begat Terah an hundred and nineteen years, and begat sons and daughters.
26 And Terah lived
seventy years, and begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
27 Now these are the
generations of Terah: Terah begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran begat Lot.
28 And Haran died
before his father Terah in the land of his nativity, in Ur of the Chaldees.
29 And Abram and Nahor
took them wives: the name of Abram's wife was Sarai; and the name of Nahor's
wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of
Iscah.
30 But Sarai was
barren; she had no child.
31 And Terah took
Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran his son's son, and Sarai his daughter
in law, his son Abram's wife; and they went forth with them from Ur of the
Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan; and they came unto Haran, and dwelt
there.
32 And the days of
Terah were two hundred and five years: and Terah died in Haran.
Chapter 12 The Call of Abram
.jpg)
1 Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:
2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and
make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth
thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
4 So Abram departed, as the LORD had
spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years
old when he departed out of Haran.
5 And Abram took Sarai his wife, and
Lot his brother's son, and all their substance that they had gathered, and the
souls that they had gotten in Haran; and they went forth to go into the land of
Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.
6 And Abram passed through the land
unto the place of Sichem, unto the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then
in the land.
7 And the LORD appeared unto Abram,
and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar
unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.
8 And he removed from thence unto a
mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the
west, and Hai on the east: and there he builded an altar unto the LORD, and
called upon the name of the LORD.
9 And Abram journeyed, going on
still toward the south.
10 And there was a famine in the
land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was
grievous in the land.
11 And it came to pass, when he was
come near to enter into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife, Behold now, I
know that thou art a fair woman to look upon:
12 Therefore it shall come to pass,
when the Egyptians shall see thee, that they shall say, This is his wife: and
they will kill me, but they will save thee alive.
13 Say, I pray thee, thou art my
sister: that it may be well with me for thy sake; and my soul shall live
because of thee.
14 And it came to pass, that, when
Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very
fair.
15 The princes also of Pharaoh saw
her, and commended her before Pharaoh: and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's
house.
16 And he entreated Abram well for
her sake: and he had sheep, and oxen, and he asses, and menservants, and
maidservants, and she asses, and camels.
17 And the LORD plagued Pharaoh and
his house with great plagues because of Sarai Abram's wife.
18 And Pharaoh called Abram, and
said, What is this that thou hast done unto me? why didst thou not tell me that
she was thy wife?
19 Why saidst thou, She is my
sister? so I might have taken her to me to wife: now therefore behold thy wife,
take her, and go thy way.
20 And Pharaoh commanded his men
concerning him: and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had.
Chapter 13 The Separation of Abram and Lot
1 And Abram went up
out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the
south.
2 And Abram was very
rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.
3 And he went on his
journeys from the south even to Bethel, unto the place where his tent had been
at the beginning, between Bethel and Hai;
4 Unto the place of
the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the
name of the LORD.
5 And Lot also, which
went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.
6 And the land was not
able to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was
great, so that they could not dwell together.
7 And there was a
strife between the herdmen of Abram's cattle and the herdmen of Lot's cattle:
and the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelled then in the land.
8 And Abram said unto
Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my
herdmen and thy herdmen; for we be brethren.
9 Is not the whole
land before thee? separate thyself, I pray thee, from me: if thou wilt take the
left hand, then I will go to the right; or if thou depart to the right hand,
then I will go to the left.
10 And Lot lifted up
his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered every
where, before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, even as the garden of the
LORD, like the land of Egypt, as thou comest unto Zoar.
11 Then Lot chose him
all the plain of Jordan; and Lot journeyed east: and they separated themselves
the one from the other.
12 Abram dwelled in
the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and pitched his
tent toward Sodom.
13 But the men of
Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly.
14 And the LORD said
unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and
look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and
westward:
15 For all the land which
thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.
16 And I will make thy
seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the
earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered.
17 Arise, walk through
the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it unto
thee.
18 Then Abram removed his
tent, and came and dwelt in the plain of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and built
there an altar unto the LORD.
Chapter 14 The Deliverance of Lot by Abram
1 And it came to pass
in the days of Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer
king of Elam, and Tidal king of nations;
2 That these made war
with Bera king of Sodom, and with Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of
Admah, and Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela, which is Zoar.
3 All these were
joined together in the vale_of_Siddim, which is the salt_sea.
4 Twelve years they
served Chedorlaomer, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
5 And in the
fourteenth year came Chedorlaomer, and the kings that were with him, and smote
the Rephaims in Ashteroth_Karnaim, and the Zuzims in Ham, and the Emims in
Shaveh_Kiriathaim,
6 And the Horites in
their mount_Seir, unto Elparan, which is by the wilderness.
7 And they returned,
and came to Enmishpat, which is Kadesh, and smote all the country of the
Amalekites, and also the Amorites, that dwelt in Hazezontamar.
8 And there went out
the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the
king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (the same is Zoar;) and they joined
battle with them in the vale of Siddim;
9 With Chedorlaomer
the king of Elam, and with Tidal king of nations, and Amraphel king of Shinar,
and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings with five.
10 And the vale of
Siddim was full of slimepits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and
fell there; and they that remained fled to the mountain.
11 And they took all
the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their victuals, and went their way.
12 And they took Lot,
Abram's brother's son, who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.
13 And there came one
that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew; for he dwelt in the plain of Mamre
the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner: and these were confederate
with Abram.
14 And when Abram
heard that his brother was taken captive, he armed his trained servants, born
in his own house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued them unto Dan.
15 And he divided
himself against them, he and his servants, by night, and smote them, and
pursued them unto Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus.
16 And he brought back
all the goods, and also brought again his brother Lot, and his goods, and the
women also, and the people.
17 And the king of
Sodom went out to meet him after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer,
and of the kings that were with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which is the
king's dale.
18 And Melchizedek king of
Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God.
19 And he blessed him, and
said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth:
20 And blessed be the most
high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him
tithes of all.
21 And the king of
Sodom said unto Abram, Give me the persons, and take the goods to thyself.
22 And Abram said to
the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand unto the LORD, the most high God,
the possessor of heaven and earth,
23 That I will not
take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing
that is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich:
24 Save only that
which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men which went with me,
Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre; let them take their portion.
Chapter 15 The Covenant with Abram.
1 After these things the
word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy
shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
2 And Abram said, LORD
God, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house
is this Eliezer of Damascus?
3 And Abram said,
Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine
heir.
4 And, behold, the
word of the LORD came unto him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he
that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.
5 And he brought him
forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be
able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.
6 And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it
to him for righteousness.
7 And he said unto him, I
am the LORD that brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land
to inherit it.
8 And he said, LORD
God, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?
9 And he said unto
him, Take me an heifer of three years old, and a she goat of three years old,
and a ram of three years old, and a turtledove, and a young pigeon.
10 And he took unto
him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid each piece one against
another: but the birds divided he not.
11 And when the fowls
came down upon the carcases, Abram drove them away.
12 And when the sun
was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great
darkness fell upon him.
13 And he said unto
Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not
theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;
14 And also that
nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out
with great substance.
15 And thou shalt go
to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.
16 But in the fourth
generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is
not yet full.
17 And it came to
pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold a smoking furnace,
and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces.
18 In the same day the
LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land,
from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:
19 The Kenites, and
the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites,
20 And the Hittites,
and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims,
21 And the Amorites,
and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.
