1 The|strong="H0559" LORD|strong="H3068" said|strong="H0559" to|strong="H0413" Abram|strong="H0087", “Leave your|strong="H3068" country|strong="H0776" and|strong="H3068" your|strong="H3068" people|strong="H0834". Leave your|strong="H3068" father’s|strong="H0001" family|strong="H1004" and|strong="H3068" go to|strong="H0413" the|strong="H0559" country|strong="H0776" that|strong="H0834" I|strong="H0834" will|strong="H3068" show|strong="H7200" you|strong="H0834".
2 I|strong="H1288" will|strong="H1961" build a|strong="H1961" great|strong="H1419" nation|strong="H1471" from|strong="H1961" you|strong="H6213".
3 I|strong="H1288" will|strong="H0127" bless|strong="H1288" those|strong="H3605" who|strong="H3605" bless|strong="H1288" you|strong="H3605",
4 So|strong="H3318" Abram|strong="H0087" left|strong="H3318" Haran|strong="H2771" just|strong="H0834" like|strong="H0834" the|strong="H0834" LORD|strong="H3068" said|strong="H1696", and|strong="H1121" Lot|strong="H3876" went|strong="H3318" with|strong="H0854" him|strong="H0413". Abram|strong="H0087" was|strong="H0834" 75 years|strong="H8141" old|strong="H1121" when|strong="H0834" he|strong="H0834" left|strong="H3318" Haran|strong="H2771".
5 He|strong="H0834" took|strong="H3947" his|strong="H3605" wife|strong="H0802" Sarai|strong="H8297", his|strong="H3605" nephew|strong="H0251" Lot|strong="H3876", all|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" slaves|strong="H1121", and|strong="H1121" all|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" other|strong="H0251" things|strong="H3605" he|strong="H0834" had|strong="H0834" gotten in|strong="H0935" Haran|strong="H2771". Then|strong="H3318" he|strong="H0834" and|strong="H1121" his|strong="H3605" group moved|strong="H0935" to|strong="H0935" the|strong="H3605" land|strong="H0776" of|strong="H1121" Canaan|strong="H3667".
6 Abram|strong="H0087" traveled|strong="H5674" through|strong="H5674" the|strong="H5704" land|strong="H0776" as|strong="H5704" far|strong="H5704" as|strong="H5704" the|strong="H5704" town of|strong="H0776" Shechem|strong="H7927" and|strong="H0776" then|strong="H0227" to|strong="H5704" the|strong="H5704" big tree at|strong="H0776" Moreh|strong="H4176". The|strong="H5704" Canaanites|strong="H3669" were|strong="H0776" living in|strong="H0776" the|strong="H5704" land|strong="H0776" at|strong="H0776" that|strong="H5704" time|strong="H0227".
7 The|strong="H0853" LORD|strong="H3068" appeared|strong="H7200" to|strong="H0413" Abram|strong="H0087" and|strong="H3068" said|strong="H0559", “I|strong="H5414" will|strong="H3068" give|strong="H5414" this|strong="H2063" land|strong="H0776" to|strong="H0413" your|strong="H3068" descendants|strong="H2233".”
8 Then|strong="H3068" he|strong="H8033" left|strong="H8033" that|strong="H3068" place|strong="H8033" and|strong="H3068" traveled to|strong="H3068" the|strong="H3068" mountains|strong="H2022" east|strong="H6924" of|strong="H3068" Bethel|strong="H1008". He|strong="H8033" set|strong="H1129" up|strong="H1129" his|strong="H3068" tent|strong="H0168" there|strong="H8033". Bethel|strong="H1008" was|strong="H8034" to|strong="H3068" the|strong="H3068" west|strong="H3220", and|strong="H3068" Ai|strong="H5857" was|strong="H8034" to|strong="H3068" the|strong="H3068" east|strong="H6924". Abram built|strong="H1129" another altar|strong="H4196" at|strong="H3068" that|strong="H3068" place|strong="H8033" to|strong="H3068" honor|strong="H8034" the|strong="H3068" LORD|strong="H3068", and|strong="H3068" he|strong="H8033" worshiped|strong="H7121" the|strong="H3068" LORD|strong="H3068" there|strong="H8033".
9 Then|strong="H1980" he|strong="H1980" moved|strong="H1980" on|strong="H1980" toward|strong="H1980" the|strong="H1980" Negev|strong="H5045", stopping for a|strong="H1980" time at|strong="H1980" several places on|strong="H1980" the|strong="H1980" way|strong="H1980".
10 During|strong="H1961" this|strong="H3588" time|strong="H1961" there|strong="H8033" was|strong="H1961" not|strong="H1961" enough food in|strong="H0776" the|strong="H3588" land|strong="H0776", so|strong="H1961" Abram|strong="H0087" went|strong="H3381" down|strong="H3381" to|strong="H1961" Egypt|strong="H4714" to|strong="H1961" live|strong="H1481".
11 Just|strong="H0834" before|strong="H0413" they|strong="H0834" arrived|strong="H0935" in|strong="H0935" Egypt|strong="H4714", Abram told|strong="H0559" Sarai|strong="H8297", “Look|strong="H2009", I|strong="H0834" know|strong="H3045" that|strong="H0834" you|strong="H0859" are|strong="H0834" a|strong="H1961" very|strong="H3045" beautiful|strong="H3303" woman|strong="H0802".
12 When|strong="H3588" the|strong="H0853" Egyptian|strong="H4713" men|strong="H0559" see|strong="H7200" you|strong="H3588", they|strong="H3588" will|strong="H1961" say|strong="H0559", ‘This|strong="H2063" woman|strong="H0802" is|strong="H1961" his|strong="H1961" wife|strong="H0802".’ Then|strong="H1961" they|strong="H3588" will|strong="H1961" kill|strong="H2026" me|strong="H7200" and|strong="H0802" keep|strong="H7200" you|strong="H3588" alive|strong="H2421" because|strong="H3588" they|strong="H3588" want you|strong="H3588".
13 So|strong="H4616" tell|strong="H0559" them|strong="H3190" that|strong="H4616" you|strong="H0859" are|strong="H0859" my|strong="H0559" sister|strong="H0269". Then|strong="H4616" they|strong="H0559" will|strong="H5315" be|strong="H4994" good|strong="H3190" to|strong="H0559" me|strong="H4994" because|strong="H4616" of|strong="H5315" you|strong="H0859". In|strong="H5315" this|strong="H4616" way you|strong="H0859" will|strong="H5315" save|strong="H5315" my|strong="H0559" life|strong="H5315".”
14 So|strong="H1961" when|strong="H3588" Abram|strong="H0087" went|strong="H0935" into|strong="H0935" Egypt|strong="H4714", the|strong="H0853" Egyptian|strong="H4713" men saw|strong="H7200" that|strong="H3588" Sarai was|strong="H1961" a|strong="H1961" very|strong="H3966" beautiful|strong="H3303" woman|strong="H0802".
15 Even|strong="H0853" some of|strong="H1004" Pharaoh’s|strong="H6547" officials|strong="H8269" noticed|strong="H7200" her|strong="H0413" and|strong="H1004" told|strong="H0413" Pharaoh|strong="H6547" how beautiful she was|strong="H0802". So|strong="H3947" they|strong="H7200" took|strong="H3947" her|strong="H0413" to|strong="H0413" Pharaoh’s|strong="H6547" house|strong="H1004".
16 Pharaoh was|strong="H1961" kind to|strong="H1961" Abram|strong="H0087" because|strong="H5668" he|strong="H1241" thought Abram|strong="H0087" was|strong="H1961" Sarai’s brother. He|strong="H1241" gave|strong="H1961" Abram|strong="H0087" sheep|strong="H6629", cattle|strong="H1241", donkeys|strong="H2543", camels|strong="H1581", and|strong="H5650" men|strong="H5650" and|strong="H5650" women|strong="H8198" servants|strong="H5650".
17 Pharaoh|strong="H6547" took|strong="H0853" Abram’s|strong="H0087" wife|strong="H0802", so|strong="H1697" the|strong="H0853" LORD|strong="H3068" caused|strong="H1697" Pharaoh|strong="H6547" and|strong="H3068" all|strong="H1697" the|strong="H0853" people in|strong="H5921" his|strong="H5921" house|strong="H1004" to|strong="H5921" have|strong="H1697" very|strong="H1419" bad diseases|strong="H5061".
18 Pharaoh|strong="H6547" called|strong="H7121" Abram|strong="H0087" and|strong="H0802" said|strong="H0559" to|strong="H0559" him|strong="H5046", “You|strong="H3588" have|strong="H3588" done|strong="H6213" a|strong="H3588" very bad thing|strong="H2063" to|strong="H0559" me|strong="H5046"! Why|strong="H4100" didn’t|strong="H3808" you|strong="H3588" tell|strong="H5046" me|strong="H5046" Sarai was|strong="H1931" your|strong="H3588" wife|strong="H0802"?
19 You|strong="H0853" said|strong="H0559", ‘She|strong="H1931" is|strong="H1931" my|strong="H3947" sister|strong="H0269".’ Why|strong="H4100" did|strong="H4100" you|strong="H0853" say|strong="H0559" that|strong="H1931"? I|strong="H2009" took|strong="H3947" her|strong="H3947" so|strong="H3947" that|strong="H1931" she|strong="H1931" could|strong="H4100" be|strong="H1931" my|strong="H3947" wife|strong="H0802", but|strong="H2009" now|strong="H6258" I|strong="H2009" give|strong="H3947" your|strong="H3947" wife|strong="H0802" back|strong="H3947" to|strong="H0559" you|strong="H0853". Take|strong="H3947" her|strong="H3947" and|strong="H0802" go|strong="H2009"!”
20 Then|strong="H0853" Pharaoh|strong="H6547" commanded|strong="H6680" his|strong="H3605" men|strong="H0376" to|strong="H5921" lead Abram out|strong="H7971" of|strong="H0376" Egypt. So|strong="H7971" Abram and|strong="H7971" his|strong="H3605" wife|strong="H0802" left that|strong="H0834" place|strong="H3605" and|strong="H7971" took|strong="H0853" everything|strong="H3605" they|strong="H0834" had|strong="H0834" with|strong="H5921" them|strong="H0853".
