Then God<S>430</S> said,<S>559</S> "Behold,<S>2009</S> I have given<S>5414</S> you every<S>3605</S> plant<S>6212</S> yielding<S>2232</S> seed<S>2233</S> that is on the surface<S>6440</S> of all<S>3605</S> the earth,<S>776</S> and every<S>3605</S> tree<S>6086</S> which<S>834</S> has fruit<S>6529</S> yielding<S>2232</S> seed;<S>2233</S> it shall be food<S>402</S> for you;

<pb/>And God<S>430</S> saw<S>7200</S> all<S>3605</S> that He had made,<S>6213</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> it was very<S>3966</S> good.<S>2896</S> And there was evening<S>6153</S> and there was morning,<S>1242</S> the sixth<S>8345</S> day.<S>3117</S>

Thus the heavens<S>8064</S> and the earth<S>776</S> were completed,<S>3615</S> and all<S>3605</S> their hosts.<S>6635</S>

And by the seventh<S>7637</S> day<S>3117</S> God<S>430</S> completed<S>3615</S> His work<S>4399</S> which<S>834</S> He had done;<S>6213</S> and He rested<S>7673</S> on the seventh<S>7637</S> day<S>3117</S> from all<S>3605</S> His work<S>4399</S> which<S>834</S> He had done.<S>6213</S>


text:
Then God<S>430</S> blessed<S>1288</S> the seventh<S>7637</S> day<S>3117</S> and sanctified<S>6942</S> it, because<S>3588</S> in it He rested<S>7673</S> from all<S>3605</S> His work<S>4399</S> which<S>834</S> God<S>430</S> had created<S>1254</S> and made.<S>6213</S>


text:
This<S>428</S> is the account<S>8435</S> of the heavens<S>8064</S> and the earth<S>776</S> when they were created,<S>1254</S> in the day<S>3117</S> that the Lord<S>3068</S> God<S>430</S> made<S>6213</S> earth<S>776</S> and heaven.<S>8064</S>


text:
<pb/>Now no<S>2962</S> <S>3605</S> shrub<S>7880</S> of the field<S>7704</S> was yet<S>2962</S> in the earth,<S>776</S> and no<S>2962</S> <S>3605</S> plant<S>6212</S> of the field<S>7704</S> had yet<S>2962</S> sprouted,<S>6779</S> for the Lord<S>3068</S> God<S>430</S> had not sent<S>4305</S> rain<S>4305</S> upon the earth;<S>776</S> and there was no<S>369</S> man<S>120</S> to cultivate<S>5647</S> the ground.<S>127</S>


text:
But a mist<S>108</S> used to rise<S>5927</S> from the earth<S>776</S> and water<S>8248</S> the whole<S>3605</S> surface<S>6440</S> of the ground.<S>127</S>


text:
Then the Lord<S>3068</S> God<S>430</S> formed<S>3335</S> man<S>120</S> of dust<S>6083</S> from the ground,<S>127</S> and breathed<S>5301</S> into his nostrils<S>639</S> the breath<S>5397</S> of life;<S>9132</S> and man<S>120</S> became<S>1961</S> a living<S>2416</S> being.<S>5315</S>


text:
<pb/>And the Lord<S>3068</S> God<S>430</S> planted<S>5193</S> a garden<S>1588</S> toward<S>4480</S> the east,<S>6924</S> in Eden;<S>5731</S> and there<S>8033</S> He placed<S>7760</S> the man<S>120</S> whom<S>834</S> He had formed.<S>3335</S>


text:
And out of the ground<S>127</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> God<S>430</S> caused to grow<S>6779</S> every<S>3605</S> tree<S>6086</S> that is pleasing<S>2530</S> to the sight<S>4758</S> and good<S>2896</S> for food;<S>3978</S> the tree<S>6086</S> of life<S>9132</S> also in the midst<S>8432</S> of the garden,<S>1588</S> and the tree<S>6086</S> of the knowledge<S>1847</S> of good<S>9185</S> and evil.<S>9563</S>


text:
<pb/>Now a river<S>5104</S> flowed<S>3318</S> out of Eden<S>5731</S> to water<S>8248</S> the garden;<S>1588</S> and from there<S>8033</S> it divided<S>6504</S> and became<S>1961</S> four<S>702</S> rivers.<S>7218</S>


text:
The name<S>8034</S> of the first<S>259</S> is Pishon;<S>6376</S> it flows<S>5437</S> around<S>5437</S> the whole<S>3605</S> land<S>776</S> of Havilah,<S>2341</S> where<S>834</S> <S>8033</S> there<S>8033</S> is gold.<S>2091</S>


text:
And the gold<S>2091</S> of that land<S>776</S> is good;<S>2896</S> the bdellium<S>916</S> and the onyx<S>7718</S> stone<S>68</S> are there.<S>8033</S>


text:
And the name<S>8034</S> of the second<S>8145</S> river<S>5104</S> is Gihon;<S>1521</S> it flows<S>5437</S> around<S>5437</S> the whole<S>3605</S> land<S>776</S> of Cush.<S>3568</S>


text:
And the name<S>8034</S> of the third<S>7992</S> river<S>5104</S> is Tigris;<S>2313</S> it flows<S>1980</S> east<S>6926</S> of Assyria.<S>804</S> And the fourth<S>7243</S> river<S>5104</S> is the Euphrates.<S>6578</S>


text:
<pb/>Then the Lord<S>3068</S> God<S>430</S> took<S>3947</S> the man<S>120</S> and put<S>5117</S> him into the garden<S>1588</S> of Eden<S>5731</S> to cultivate<S>5647</S> it and keep<S>8104</S> it.


text:
And the Lord<S>3068</S> God<S>430</S> commanded<S>6680</S> the man,<S>120</S> saying,<S>559</S> "From any<S>3605</S> tree<S>6086</S> of the garden<S>1588</S> you may eat<S>398</S> freely;<S>398</S>


text:
but from the tree<S>6086</S> of the knowledge<S>1847</S> of good<S>9185</S> and evil<S>9563</S> you shall not eat,<S>398</S> for in the day<S>3117</S> that you eat<S>398</S> from it you shall surely<S>4191</S> die.<S>4191</S> "


text:
<pb/>Then the Lord<S>3068</S> God<S>430</S> said,<S>559</S> "It is not good<S>2896</S> for the man<S>120</S> to be alone;<S>905</S> I will make<S>6213</S> him a helper<S>5828</S> suitable<S>5048</S> for him."


text:
And out of the ground<S>127</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> God<S>430</S> formed<S>3335</S> every<S>3605</S> beast<S>9130</S> of the field<S>7704</S> and every<S>3605</S> bird<S>5775</S> of the sky,<S>8064</S> and brought<S>935</S> [them] to the man<S>120</S> to see<S>7200</S> what<S>4100</S> he would call<S>7121</S> them; and whatever<S>3605</S> <S>834</S> the man<S>120</S> called<S>7121</S> a living<S>2416</S> creature,<S>5315</S> that was its name.<S>8034</S>


text:
And the man<S>120</S> gave<S>7121</S> names<S>8034</S> to all<S>3605</S> the cattle,<S>929</S> and to the birds<S>5775</S> of the sky,<S>8064</S> and to every<S>3605</S> beast<S>9130</S> of the field,<S>7704</S> but for Adam<S>121</S> there was not found<S>4672</S> a helper<S>5828</S> suitable<S>5048</S> for him.


text:
So the Lord<S>3068</S> God<S>430</S> caused a deep<S>8639</S> sleep<S>8639</S> to fall<S>5307</S> upon the man,<S>120</S> and he slept;<S>3462</S> then He took<S>3947</S> one<S>259</S> of his ribs,<S>6763</S> and closed<S>5462</S> up the flesh<S>1320</S> at that place.<S>8478</S>


text:
And the Lord<S>3068</S> God<S>430</S> fashioned<S>1129</S> into a woman<S>802</S> the rib<S>6763</S> which<S>834</S> He had taken<S>3947</S> from the man,<S>120</S> and brought<S>935</S> her to the man.<S>120</S>


text:
And the man<S>120</S> said,<S>559</S> <t>"This<S>2088</S> is now<S>6471</S> bone<S>6106</S> of my bones,<S>6106</S> And flesh<S>1320</S> of my flesh;<S>1320</S> She shall be called<S>7121</S> Woman,<S>802</S> Because<S>3588</S> she was taken<S>3947</S> out of Man.<S>376</S>"


text:
For this<S>3651</S> cause<S>5921</S> a man<S>376</S> shall leave<S>5800</S> his father and his mother,<S>1</S> and shall cleave<S>517</S> to his wife;<S>1692</S> and they shall become<S>802</S> one<S>1961</S> flesh.<S>259</S>


text:

<pb/>And Terah<S>8646</S> took<S>3947</S> Abram<S>87</S> his son,<S>1121</S> and Lot<S>3876</S> the son<S>1121</S> of Haran,<S>2039</S> his grandson,<S>1121</S> and Sarai<S>8297</S> his daughter-in-law, his son<S>1121</S> Abram's wife;<S>802</S> and they went<S>3318</S> out together<S>854</S> from Ur<S>218</S> of the Chaldeans<S>3778</S> in order to enter<S>1980</S> the land<S>776</S> of Canaan;<S>3667</S> and they went<S>935</S> as far<S>5704</S> as Haran,<S>2771</S> and settled<S>3427</S> there.<S>8033</S>


text:
And the days<S>3117</S> of Terah<S>8646</S> were two hundred<S>3967</S> and five<S>2568</S> years;<S>8141</S> and Terah<S>8646</S> died<S>4191</S> in Haran.<S>2771</S>


text:
<pb/><t>Now the Lord<S>3068</S> said<S>559</S> to Abram,<S>87</S> "Go<S>1980</S> forth from your country,<S>776</S> And from your relatives<S>4138</S> And from your father's house,<S>1004</S> To the land<S>776</S> which<S>834</S> I will show<S>7200</S> you;</t>

<pb/><t>And I will make<S>6213</S> you a great<S>1419</S> nation,<S>1471</S> And I will bless<S>1288</S> you, And make<S>1431</S> your name<S>8034</S> great;<S>1431</S> And so you shall be a blessing;<S>1293</S></t>

text:
So Abram<S>87</S> went<S>1980</S> forth as the Lord<S>3068</S> had spoken<S>1696</S> to him; and Lot<S>3876</S> went<S>1980</S> with him. Now Abram<S>87</S> was seventy-five years<S>8141</S> old<S>1121</S> when he departed<S>3318</S> from Haran.<S>2771</S>


text:
And Abram<S>87</S> took<S>3947</S> Sarai<S>8297</S> his wife<S>802</S> and Lot<S>3876</S> his nephew,<S>1121</S> <S>251</S> and all<S>3605</S> their possessions<S>7399</S> which<S>834</S> they had accumulated,<S>7408</S> and the persons<S>5315</S> which<S>834</S> they had acquired<S>6213</S> in Haran,<S>2771</S> and they set<S>3318</S> <S>1980</S> out for the land<S>776</S> of Canaan;<S>3667</S> thus they came<S>935</S> to the land<S>776</S> of Canaan.<S>3667</S>


text:
<pb/>And Abram<S>87</S> passed<S>5674</S> through<S>5674</S> the land<S>776</S> as far<S>5704</S> as the site<S>4725</S> of Shechem,<S>7927</S> to the oak<S>436</S> of Moreh.<S>4176</S> Now the Canaanite<S>3669</S> [was] then<S>227</S> in the land.<S>776</S>

And the Lord<S>3068</S> appeared<S>7200</S> to Abram<S>87</S> and said,<S>559</S> "To your descendants<S>2233</S> I will give<S>5414</S> this<S>2088</S> land.<S>776</S>" So he built<S>1129</S> an altar<S>4196</S> there<S>8033</S> to the Lord<S>3068</S> who had appeared<S>7200</S> to him.


text:
<pb/>Then he proceeded<S>6275</S> from there<S>8033</S> to the mountain<S>2022</S> on the east<S>6924</S> of Bethel,<S>1008</S> and pitched<S>5186</S> his tent,<S>168</S> with Bethel<S>1008</S> on the west<S>3220</S> and Ai<S>5857</S> on the east;<S>6924</S> and there<S>8033</S> he built<S>1129</S> an altar<S>4196</S> to the Lord<S>3068</S> and called<S>7121</S> upon the name<S>8034</S> of the Lord.<S>3068</S>


text:
And Abram<S>87</S> journeyed<S>5265</S> on, continuing<S>1980</S> <S>5265</S> toward the Negev.<S>5045</S>


text:
Now there was a famine<S>7458</S> in the land;<S>776</S> so Abram<S>87</S> went<S>3381</S> down<S>3381</S> to Egypt<S>4714</S> to sojourn<S>1481</S> there,<S>8033</S> for the famine<S>7458</S> was severe<S>3515</S> in the land.<S>776</S>


text:
And it came<S>1961</S> about when<S>9201</S> he came<S>7126</S> <S>935</S> near<S>7126</S> to Egypt,<S>4714</S> that he said<S>559</S> to Sarai<S>8297</S> his wife,<S>802</S> "See<S>2009</S> now,<S>4994</S> I know<S>3045</S> that you are a beautiful<S>3303</S> woman;<S>802</S>


text:
and it will come<S>1961</S> about when<S>3588</S> the Egyptians<S>4713</S> see<S>7200</S> you, that they will say,<S>559</S> 'This<S>2088</S> is his wife<S>802</S>'; and they will kill<S>2026</S> me, but they will let you live.<S>2421</S>


text:
"Please<S>4994</S> say<S>559</S> that you are my sister<S>269</S> so<S>4616</S> that it may go<S>3190</S> well<S>3190</S> with me because<S>5668</S> of you, and that I may live<S>2421</S> on account<S>1558</S> of you."


text:
<pb/>And it came<S>1961</S> about when Abram<S>87</S> came<S>935</S> into Egypt,<S>4714</S> the Egyptians<S>4713</S> saw<S>7200</S> that the woman<S>802</S> was very<S>3966</S> beautiful.<S>3303</S>


text:
And Pharaoh<S>6547</S>'s officials<S>8269</S> saw<S>7200</S> her and praised<S>1984</S> her to Pharaoh; and the woman<S>802</S> was taken<S>3947</S> into Pharaoh's house.<S>1004</S>


text:
Therefore he treated<S>3190</S> Abram<S>87</S> well<S>3190</S> for her sake;<S>5668</S> and gave<S>1961</S> him sheep<S>6629</S> and oxen<S>1241</S> and donkeys<S>2543</S> and male<S>5650</S> and female<S>8198</S> servants<S>8198</S> and female<S>860</S> donkeys<S>860</S> and camels.<S>1581</S>


text:
<pb/>But the Lord<S>3068</S> struck<S>5060</S> Pharaoh<S>6547</S> and his house<S>1004</S> with great<S>1419</S> plagues<S>5061</S> because<S>5921</S> <S>1697</S> of Sarai,<S>8297</S> Abram's wife.<S>802</S>


text:
Then Pharaoh<S>6547</S> called<S>7121</S> Abram<S>87</S> and said,<S>559</S> "What<S>4100</S> is this<S>2088</S> you have done<S>6213</S> to me? Why<S>4100</S> did you not tell<S>5046</S> me that she was your wife<S>802</S>?


text:
"Why<S>4100</S> did you say,<S>559</S> 'She is my sister,<S>269</S>' so that I took<S>3947</S> her for my wife<S>802</S>? Now<S>6258</S> then, here<S>2009</S> is your wife,<S>802</S> take<S>3947</S> her and go.<S>1980</S>"


text:
And Pharaoh<S>6547</S> commanded<S>6680</S> [his] men<S>376</S> concerning<S>5921</S> him; and they escorted<S>7971</S> him away,<S>7971</S> with his wife<S>802</S> and all<S>3605</S> that belonged to him.


text:
<pb/>So Abram<S>87</S> went<S>5927</S> up from Egypt<S>4714</S> to the Negev,<S>5045</S> he and his wife<S>802</S> and all<S>3605</S> that belonged to him; and Lot<S>3876</S> with him.


text:
Now Abram<S>87</S> was very<S>3966</S> rich<S>3515</S> in livestock,<S>4735</S> in silver<S>3701</S> and in gold.<S>2091</S>


text:
<pb/>And he went<S>1980</S> on his journeys<S>4550</S> from the Negev<S>5045</S> as far<S>5704</S> as Bethel,<S>1008</S> to the place<S>4725</S> where<S>834</S> <S>8033</S> his tent<S>168</S> had been<S>1961</S> at the beginning,<S>8462</S> between<S>996</S> Bethel<S>1008</S> and Ai,<S>5857</S>

to the place<S>4725</S> of the altar,<S>4196</S> which<S>834</S> he had made<S>6213</S> there<S>8033</S> formerly;<S>7223</S> and there<S>8033</S> Abram<S>87</S> called<S>7121</S> on the name<S>8034</S> of the Lord.<S>3068</S>


text:
<pb/>Now Lot,<S>3876</S> who went<S>1980</S> with Abram,<S>87</S> also<S>1571</S> had<S>1961</S> flocks<S>6629</S> and herds<S>1241</S> and tents.<S>168</S>


text:
And the land<S>776</S> could not sustain<S>5375</S> them while dwelling<S>3427</S> together;<S>9191</S> for their possessions<S>7399</S> were so great<S>7227</S> that they were not able<S>3201</S> to remain<S>3427</S> together.<S>9191</S>


text:
And there was strife<S>7379</S> between<S>996</S> the herdsmen<S>7462</S> of Abram's livestock<S>4735</S> and the herdsmen<S>7462</S> of Lot's livestock.<S>4735</S> Now the Canaanite<S>3669</S> and the Perizzite<S>6522</S> were dwelling<S>3427</S> then<S>227</S> in the land.<S>776</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Abram<S>87</S> said<S>559</S> to Lot,<S>3876</S> "Please<S>4994</S> let there be no<S>408</S> strife<S>4808</S> between<S>996</S> you and me, nor between<S>996</S> my herdsmen<S>7462</S> and your herdsmen,<S>7462</S> for we are brothers.<S>251</S>


text:
"Is not the whole<S>3605</S> land<S>776</S> before<S>6440</S> you? Please<S>4994</S> separate<S>6504</S> from me: if<S>518</S> [to] the left,<S>8040</S> then I will go<S>3231</S> to the right;<S>3231</S> or if<S>518</S> [to] the right,<S>3225</S> then I will go<S>8041</S> to the left.<S>8041</S>"


text:
<pb/>And Lot<S>3876</S> lifted<S>5375</S> up his eyes<S>5869</S> and saw<S>7200</S> all<S>3605</S> the valley<S>3603</S> of the Jordan,<S>3383</S> that it was well<S>4945</S> watered<S>4945</S> everywhere<S>3605</S> – [this was] before<S>6440</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> destroyed<S>7843</S> Sodom<S>5467</S> and Gomorrah<S>6017</S> – like the garden<S>1588</S> of the Lord,<S>3068</S> like the land<S>776</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> as you go<S>935</S> to Zoar.<S>6820</S>


text:
So Lot<S>3876</S> chose<S>977</S> for himself all<S>3605</S> the valley<S>3603</S> of the Jordan;<S>3383</S> and Lot<S>3876</S> journeyed<S>5265</S> eastward.<S>6924</S> Thus they separated<S>6504</S> from each<S>376</S> other.<S>251</S>


text:
Abram<S>87</S> settled<S>3427</S> in the land<S>776</S> of Canaan,<S>3667</S> while Lot<S>3876</S> settled<S>3427</S> in the cities<S>5892</S> of the valley,<S>3603</S> and moved<S>167</S> his tents<S>167</S> as far<S>5704</S> as Sodom.<S>5467</S>


text:
Now the men<S>376</S> of Sodom<S>5467</S> were wicked<S>7451</S> exceedingly<S>3966</S> and sinners<S>2400</S> against the Lord.<S>3068</S>

<pb/>And the Lord<S>3068</S> said<S>559</S> to Abram,<S>87</S> after<S>310</S> Lot<S>3876</S> had separated<S>6504</S> from him, "Now<S>4994</S> lift<S>5375</S> up your eyes<S>5869</S> and look<S>7200</S> from the place<S>4725</S> where<S>834</S> <S>8033</S> you are, northward<S>6828</S> and southward<S>5045</S> and eastward<S>9506</S> and westward;<S>3220</S>

"And I will make<S>7760</S> your descendants<S>2233</S> as the dust<S>6083</S> of the earth;<S>776</S> so<S>834</S> that if<S>518</S> anyone<S>376</S> can<S>3201</S> number<S>4487</S> the dust<S>6083</S> of the earth,<S>776</S> then your descendants<S>2233</S> can also<S>1571</S> be numbered.<S>4487</S>

<pb/>Then Abram<S>87</S> moved<S>167</S> his tent<S>167</S> and came<S>935</S> and dwelt<S>3427</S> by the oaks<S>436</S> of Mamre,<S>4471</S> which<S>834</S> are in Hebron,<S>2275</S> and there<S>8033</S> he built<S>1129</S> an altar<S>4196</S> to the Lord.<S>3068</S>

All<S>3605</S> these<S>428</S> came<S>2266</S> as allies<S>2266</S> to the valley<S>6010</S> of Siddim<S>7708</S> (that is, the Salt<S>4417</S> Sea<S>3220</S>).

Twelve<S>8147</S> <S>6240</S> years<S>8141</S> they had served<S>5647</S> Chedorlaomer,<S>3540</S> but the thirteenth<S>7969</S> <S>6240</S> year<S>8141</S> they rebelled.<S>4775</S>

Then they turned<S>7725</S> back<S>7725</S> and came<S>935</S> to En-mishpat (that is, Kadesh<S>6946</S>), and conquered<S>5221</S> all<S>3605</S> the country<S>7704</S> of the Amalekites,<S>6003</S> and also<S>1571</S> the Amorites,<S>567</S> who lived<S>3427</S> in Hazazon-tamar.

Then they took<S>3947</S> all<S>3605</S> the goods<S>7399</S> of Sodom<S>5467</S> and Gomorrah<S>6017</S> and all<S>3605</S> their food<S>400</S> supply,<S>400</S> and departed.<S>1980</S>

So Sarai<S>8297</S> said<S>559</S> to Abram,<S>87</S> "Now<S>4994</S> behold,<S>2009</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> has prevented<S>6113</S> me from bearing<S>3205</S> [children.<S>1129</S>] Please<S>4994</S> go<S>935</S> in to my maid;<S>8198</S> perhaps<S>194</S> I shall obtain<S>1129</S> children through<S>4480</S> her."

Now Abraham<S>85</S> was ninety-nine years<S>8141</S> old<S>1121</S> when he was circumcised<S>4135</S> in the flesh<S>1320</S> of his foreskin.<S>6190</S>

In the very<S>6106</S> same<S>6106</S> day<S>3117</S> Abraham<S>85</S> was circumcised,<S>4135</S> and Ishmael<S>3458</S> his son.<S>1121</S>

<pb/>Now the Lord<S>3068</S> appeared<S>7200</S> to him by the oaks<S>436</S> of Mamre,<S>4471</S> while he was sitting<S>3427</S> at the tent<S>168</S> door<S>6607</S> in the heat<S>2527</S> of the day.<S>3117</S>

And when he lifted<S>5375</S> up his eyes<S>5869</S> and looked,<S>7200</S> behold,<S>2009</S> three<S>7969</S> men<S>376</S> were standing<S>5324</S> opposite<S>5921</S> him; and when he saw<S>7200</S> [them,] he ran<S>7323</S> from the tent<S>168</S> door<S>6607</S> to meet<S>7122</S> them, and bowed<S>7812</S> himself to the earth,<S>776</S>

<pb/>and said,<S>559</S> "My lord,<S>113</S> if<S>518</S> now<S>4994</S> I have found<S>4672</S> favor<S>2580</S> in your sight,<S>5869</S> please<S>4994</S> do not pass<S>5674</S> your servant<S>5650</S> by.

"Please<S>4994</S> let a little<S>4592</S> water<S>4325</S> be brought<S>3947</S> and wash<S>7364</S> your feet,<S>7272</S> and rest<S>8172</S> yourselves<S>8172</S> under<S>8478</S> the tree;<S>6086</S>

<pb/>So Abraham<S>85</S> hurried<S>4116</S> into the tent<S>168</S> to Sarah,<S>8283</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Quickly,<S>4116</S> prepare<S>4116</S> three<S>7969</S> measures<S>5429</S> of fine<S>5560</S> flour,<S>7058</S> <S>5560</S> knead<S>3888</S> [it,] and make<S>6213</S> bread<S>5692</S> cakes.<S>5692</S>"

Abraham<S>85</S> also ran<S>7323</S> to the herd,<S>1241</S> and took<S>3947</S> a tender<S>7390</S> and choice<S>2896</S> calf,<S>1121</S> <S>1241</S> and gave<S>5414</S> [it] to the servant;<S>5288</S> and he hurried<S>4116</S> to prepare<S>6213</S> it.


text:
And he took<S>3947</S> curds<S>2529</S> and milk<S>2461</S> and the calf<S>1121</S> <S>1241</S> which<S>834</S> he had prepared,<S>6213</S> and placed<S>5414</S> [it] before<S>6440</S> them; and he was standing<S>5975</S> by them under<S>8478</S> the tree<S>6086</S> as they ate.<S>398</S>


text:
<pb/>Then they said<S>559</S> to him, "Where<S>335</S> is Sarah<S>8283</S> your wife<S>802</S>?" And he said,<S>559</S> "Behold,<S>2009</S> in the tent.<S>168</S>"

And he said,<S>559</S> "I will surely<S>7725</S> return<S>7725</S> to you at this time<S>6256</S> next<S>2416</S> year;<S>2416</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> Sarah<S>8283</S> your wife<S>802</S> shall have a son.<S>1121</S>" And Sarah<S>8283</S> was listening<S>8085</S> at the tent<S>168</S> door,<S>6607</S> which<S>1931</S> was behind<S>310</S> him.

Now Abraham<S>85</S> and Sarah<S>8283</S> were old,<S>2205</S> advanced<S>935</S> in age;<S>3117</S> Sarah<S>8283</S> was past<S>2308</S> childbearing.<S>734</S> <S>802</S>

And Sarah<S>8283</S> laughed<S>6711</S> to herself,<S>7130</S> saying,<S>559</S> "After<S>310</S> I have become<S>1086</S> old,<S>1086</S> shall I have<S>1961</S> pleasure,<S>9384</S> my lord<S>113</S> being<S>2204</S> old<S>2204</S> also?"


text:
<pb/>And the Lord<S>3068</S> said<S>559</S> to Abraham,<S>85</S> "Why<S>4100</S> did Sarah<S>8283</S> laugh,<S>6711</S> saying,<S>559</S> 'Shall I indeed<S>637</S> <S>552</S> bear<S>3205</S> [a child,] when I am<S>2204</S> [so] old<S>2204</S>?'

Sarah<S>8283</S> denied<S>3584</S> [it] however, saying,<S>559</S> "I did not laugh<S>6711</S>"; for she was afraid.<S>3372</S> And He said,<S>559</S> "No,<S>3808</S> but you did laugh.<S>6711</S>"

Then the men<S>376</S> rose<S>6965</S> up from there,<S>8033</S> and looked<S>8259</S> down<S>8259</S> toward<S>5921</S> <S>6440</S> Sodom;<S>5467</S> and Abraham<S>85</S> was walking<S>1980</S> with them to send<S>7971</S> them off.

since Abraham<S>85</S> will surely<S>1961</S> become<S>1961</S> a great<S>1419</S> and mighty<S>6099</S> nation,<S>1471</S> and in him all<S>3605</S> the nations<S>1471</S> of the earth<S>776</S> will be blessed<S>1288</S>?

"For I have chosen<S>3045</S> him, in order<S>4616</S> that he may command<S>6680</S> his children<S>1121</S> and his household<S>1004</S> after<S>310</S> him to keep<S>8104</S> the way<S>1870</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> by doing<S>6213</S> righteousness<S>6666</S> and justice;<S>4941</S> in order<S>4616</S> that the Lord<S>3068</S> may bring<S>935</S> upon Abraham<S>85</S> what<S>834</S> He has spoken<S>1696</S> about<S>5921</S> him."


text:
<pb/>And the Lord<S>3068</S> said,<S>559</S> "The outcry<S>2201</S> of Sodom<S>5467</S> and Gomorrah<S>6017</S> is indeed<S>3588</S> great,<S>7231</S> and their sin<S>9128</S> is exceedingly<S>3966</S> grave.<S>3513</S>

"I will go<S>3381</S> down<S>3381</S> now,<S>4994</S> and see<S>7200</S> if they have done<S>6213</S> entirely<S>3617</S> according to its outcry,<S>6818</S> which has come<S>935</S> to Me; and if<S>518</S> not, I will know.<S>3045</S>"

<pb/>Then the men<S>376</S> turned<S>6437</S> away<S>6437</S> from there<S>8033</S> and went<S>1980</S> toward Sodom,<S>5467</S> while Abraham<S>85</S> was still<S>5750</S> standing<S>5975</S> before<S>6440</S> the Lord.<S>3068</S>

<pb/>Yet he urged<S>6484</S> them strongly,<S>3966</S> so they turned<S>5493</S> aside<S>5493</S> to him and entered<S>935</S> his house;<S>1004</S> and he prepared<S>6213</S> a feast<S>4960</S> for them, and baked<S>644</S> unleavened<S>4682</S> bread,<S>4682</S> and they ate.<S>398</S>

Before<S>2962</S> they lay<S>7901</S> down,<S>7901</S> the men<S>376</S> of the city,<S>5892</S> the men<S>376</S> of Sodom,<S>5467</S> surrounded<S>5437</S> the house,<S>1004</S> both<S>4480</S> young<S>5288</S> and old,<S>2205</S> all<S>3605</S> the people<S>5971</S> from every quarter;<S>7097</S>

and they called<S>7121</S> to Lot<S>3876</S> and said<S>559</S> to him, "Where<S>346</S> are the men<S>376</S> who<S>834</S> came<S>935</S> to you tonight<S>3915</S>? Bring<S>3318</S> them out to us that we may have<S>3045</S> relations<S>3045</S> with them."


text:
<pb/>But Lot<S>3876</S> went<S>3318</S> out to them at the doorway,<S>6607</S> and shut<S>5462</S> the door<S>1817</S> behind<S>310</S> him,


text:
and said,<S>559</S> "Please,<S>4994</S> my brothers,<S>251</S> do not act<S>7489</S> wickedly.<S>7489</S>


text:
"Now<S>4994</S> behold,<S>2009</S> I have two<S>8147</S> daughters<S>1323</S> who<S>834</S> have not had<S>3045</S> relations<S>3045</S> with man;<S>376</S> please<S>4994</S> let me bring<S>3318</S> them out to you, and do<S>6213</S> to them whatever<S>2896</S> <S>5869</S> you like<S>2896</S>;<S>5869</S> only<S>7534</S> do<S>6213</S> nothing<S>408</S> <S>1697</S> to these<S>411</S> men,<S>376</S> inasmuch<S>3588</S> <S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> as they have come<S>935</S> under the shelter<S>6738</S> of my roof.<S>6982</S>"


text:
<pb/>But they said,<S>559</S> "Stand<S>5066</S> aside.<S>1973</S>" Furthermore, they said,<S>559</S> "This one<S>259</S> came<S>935</S> in as an alien,<S>1481</S> and already<S>8199</S> he is acting<S>8199</S> like a judge;<S>8199</S> now<S>6258</S> we will treat<S>7489</S> you worse<S>7489</S> than<S>4480</S> them." So they pressed<S>6484</S> hard<S>3966</S> against Lot<S>3876</S> and came<S>5066</S> near<S>5066</S> to break<S>7665</S> the door.<S>1817</S>

<pb/>But the men<S>376</S> reached<S>7971</S> out their hands<S>3027</S> and brought<S>935</S> Lot<S>3876</S> into the house<S>1004</S> with them, and shut<S>5462</S> the door.<S>1817</S>


text:
And they struck<S>5221</S> the men<S>376</S> who<S>834</S> were at the doorway<S>6607</S> of the house<S>1004</S> with blindness,<S>5575</S> both<S>4480</S> small<S>9512</S> and great,<S>1419</S> so that they wearied<S>3811</S> [themselves trying] to find<S>4672</S> the doorway.<S>6607</S>


text:
Then the men<S>376</S> said<S>559</S> to Lot,<S>3876</S> "Whom<S>4310</S> else<S>5750</S> have you here<S>6311</S>?

text:
for we are about to destroy<S>7843</S> this<S>2088</S> place,<S>4725</S> because<S>3588</S> their outcry<S>6818</S> has become<S>1431</S> so<S>3588</S> great<S>1431</S> before<S>6440</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> that the Lord<S>3068</S> has sent<S>7971</S> us to destroy<S>7843</S> it. "


text:
<pb/>And Lot<S>3876</S> went<S>3318</S> out and spoke<S>1696</S> to his sons-in-law, who were to marry<S>3947</S> his daughters,<S>1323</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Up, get<S>3318</S> out of this<S>2088</S> place,<S>4725</S> for the Lord<S>3068</S> will destroy<S>7843</S> the city.<S>5892</S>" But he appeared<S>1961</S> <S>5869</S> to his sons-in-law to be jesting.<S>6711</S>


text:
<pb/>And when<S>3644</S> morning<S>7837</S> dawned,<S>5927</S> the angels<S>4397</S> urged<S>213</S> Lot,<S>3876</S> saying,<S>559</S> "Up, take<S>3947</S> your wife<S>802</S> and your two<S>8147</S> daughters,<S>1323</S> who are here,<S>4672</S> lest<S>6435</S> you be swept<S>5595</S> away<S>5595</S> in the punishment<S>5771</S> of the city.<S>5892</S>"


text:
But he hesitated.<S>4102</S> So the men<S>376</S> seized<S>2388</S> his hand<S>3027</S> and the hand<S>3027</S> of his wife<S>802</S> and the hands<S>3027</S> of his two<S>8147</S> daughters,<S>1323</S> for the compassion<S>2551</S> of the Lord<S>3068</S> [ was] upon him; and they brought<S>3318</S> him out, and put<S>5117</S> him outside<S>4480</S> <S>2351</S> the city.<S>5892</S>


text:
And it came<S>1961</S> about when they had brought<S>3318</S> them outside,<S>2351</S> that one said,<S>559</S> "Escape<S>4422</S> for your life!<S>5315</S> Do not look<S>5027</S> behind<S>310</S> you, and do not stay<S>5975</S> anywhere<S>3605</S> in the valley;<S>3603</S> escape<S>4422</S> to the mountains,<S>2022</S> lest<S>6435</S> you be swept<S>5595</S> away.<S>5595</S>"

<pb/>The sun<S>8121</S> had risen<S>3318</S> over<S>5921</S> the earth<S>776</S> when Lot<S>3876</S> came<S>935</S> to Zoar.<S>6820</S>

Then the Lord<S>3068</S> rained<S>4305</S> on Sodom<S>5467</S> and Gomorrah<S>6017</S> brimstone<S>1614</S> and fire<S>784</S> from the Lord<S>3068</S> out of heaven,<S>8064</S>

and He overthrew<S>2015</S> those<S>411</S> cities,<S>5892</S> and all<S>3605</S> the valley,<S>3603</S> and all<S>3605</S> the inhabitants<S>3427</S> of the cities,<S>5892</S> and what<S>6780</S> grew<S>6780</S> on the ground.<S>127</S>

But his wife,<S>802</S> from behind<S>310</S> him, looked<S>5027</S> [back;] and she became<S>1961</S> a pillar<S>5333</S> of salt.<S>4417</S>

<pb/>Now Abraham<S>85</S> arose<S>7925</S> early<S>7925</S> in the morning<S>1242</S> [and went] to the place<S>4725</S> where<S>834</S> <S>8033</S> he had stood<S>5975</S> before<S>6440</S> the Lord;<S>3068</S>


text:
and he looked<S>8259</S> down<S>8259</S> toward<S>5921</S> <S>6440</S> Sodom<S>5467</S> and Gomorrah,<S>6017</S> and toward<S>5921</S> <S>6440</S> all<S>3605</S> the land<S>776</S> of the valley,<S>3603</S> and he saw,<S>7200</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> the smoke<S>7008</S> of the land<S>776</S> ascended<S>5927</S> like the smoke<S>7008</S> of a furnace.<S>3536</S>

<pb/>Thus it came<S>1961</S> about, when God<S>430</S> destroyed<S>7843</S> the cities<S>5892</S> of the valley,<S>3603</S> that God<S>430</S> remembered<S>2142</S> Abraham,<S>85</S> and sent<S>7971</S> Lot<S>3876</S> out of the midst<S>8432</S> of the overthrow,<S>2018</S> when He overthrew<S>2015</S> the cities<S>5892</S> in which<S>834</S> Lot<S>3876</S> lived.<S>3427</S>


text:
<pb/>And Lot<S>3876</S> went<S>5927</S> up from Zoar,<S>6820</S> and stayed<S>3427</S> in the mountains,<S>2022</S> and his two<S>8147</S> daughters<S>1323</S> with him; for he was afraid<S>3372</S> to stay<S>3427</S> in Zoar;<S>6820</S> and he stayed<S>3427</S> in a cave,<S>4631</S> he and his two<S>8147</S> daughters.<S>1323</S>


text:
Then the first-born said<S>559</S> to the younger,<S>6810</S> "Our father is old,<S>1</S> and there<S>2204</S> is not a man<S>369</S> on earth<S>376</S> to come<S>776</S> in to us after the manner<S>935</S> of the earth.<S>1870</S>


text:
"Come,<S>1980</S> let us make our father drink<S>1</S> wine,<S>8248</S> and let us lie<S>3196</S> with him, that we may preserve<S>7901</S> our family<S>2421</S> through<S>2233</S> our father."


text:
<pb/>So they made their father drink<S>1</S> wine<S>8248</S> that night,<S>3196</S> and the first-born went<S>3915</S> in and lay<S>935</S> with her father; and he did not know<S>7901</S> when she lay<S>1</S> down<S>3045</S> or when she arose.<S>7901</S>


text:
And it came<S>1961</S> about on the morrow,<S>4283</S> that the first-born said<S>559</S> to the younger,<S>6810</S> "Behold,<S>2005</S> I lay<S>7901</S> last<S>570</S> night<S>570</S> with my father; let us make him drink<S>1</S> wine<S>8248</S> tonight<S>3196</S> also;<S>3915</S> then you go<S>1571</S> in and lie<S>935</S> with him, that we may preserve<S>7901</S> our family<S>2421</S> through<S>2233</S> our father."


text:
So they made their father drink<S>1</S> wine<S>8248</S> that night<S>3196</S> also,<S>3915</S> and the younger<S>1571</S> arose<S>6810</S> and lay<S>6965</S> with him; and he did not know<S>7901</S> when she lay<S>3045</S> down<S>7901</S> or when she arose.<S>7901</S>


text:
<pb/>Thus both<S>8147</S> the daughters<S>1323</S> of Lot<S>3876</S> were with child<S>2029</S> by their father.


text:
And the first-born bore<S>3205</S> a son,<S>1121</S> and called<S>7121</S> his name<S>8034</S> Moab;<S>4124</S> he is the father of the Moabites<S>1</S> to this day.<S>4124</S>


text:
And as for the younger,<S>6810</S> she also<S>1571</S> bore<S>3205</S> a son,<S>1121</S> and called<S>7121</S> his name<S>8034</S> Ben-ammi; he is the father of the sons<S>1</S> of Ammon<S>1121</S> to this day.<S>5983</S>


text:
<pb/>Now Abraham<S>85</S> journeyed<S>5265</S> from there<S>8033</S> toward the land<S>776</S> of the Negev,<S>5045</S> and settled<S>3427</S> between<S>996</S> Kadesh<S>6946</S> and Shur;<S>7793</S> then he sojourned<S>1481</S> in Gerar.<S>1642</S>


text:
And Abraham<S>85</S> said<S>559</S> of Sarah<S>8283</S> his wife,<S>802</S> "She is my sister.<S>269</S>" So Abimelech<S>40</S> king<S>4428</S> of Gerar<S>1642</S> sent<S>7971</S> and took<S>3947</S> Sarah.<S>8283</S>

<pb/>But God<S>430</S> came<S>935</S> to Abimelech<S>40</S> in a dream<S>2472</S> of the night,<S>3915</S> and said<S>559</S> to him, "Behold,<S>2009</S> you are a dead<S>4191</S> man because<S>5921</S> of the woman<S>802</S> whom<S>834</S> you have taken,<S>3947</S> for she is married.<S>1167</S> <S>1166</S>"

<pb/>Now Abimelech<S>40</S> had not come<S>7126</S> near<S>7126</S> her; and he said,<S>559</S> "Lord,<S>136</S> wilt Thou slay<S>2026</S> a nation,<S>1471</S> even<S>1571</S> [though] blameless<S>6662</S>?

"Did he not himself<S>1931</S> say<S>559</S> to me, 'She is my sister<S>269</S>'?

text:
<pb/>Then God<S>430</S> said<S>559</S> to him in the dream,<S>2472</S> "Yes,<S>1571</S> I know<S>3045</S> that in the integrity<S>8537</S> of your heart<S>3824</S> you have done<S>6213</S> this,<S>2088</S> and I also<S>1571</S> kept<S>2820</S> you from sinning<S>2398</S> against Me; therefore<S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> I did not let<S>5414</S> you touch<S>5060</S> her.

"Now<S>6258</S> therefore, restore<S>7725</S> the man's wife,<S>802</S> for he is a prophet,<S>5030</S> and he will pray<S>6419</S> for you, and you will live.<S>2421</S> But if<S>518</S> you do not restore<S>7725</S> [her,] know<S>3045</S> that you shall surely<S>4191</S> die,<S>4191</S> you and all<S>3605</S> who<S>834</S> are yours."

<pb/>So Abimelech<S>40</S> arose<S>7925</S> early<S>7925</S> in the morning<S>1242</S> and called<S>7121</S> all<S>3605</S> his servants<S>5650</S> and told<S>1696</S> all<S>3605</S> these<S>428</S> things<S>1697</S> in their hearing;<S>241</S> and the men<S>376</S> were greatly<S>3966</S> frightened.<S>3372</S>

"Besides,<S>1571</S> she actually<S>546</S> is my sister,<S>269</S> the daughter<S>1323</S> of my father, but not the daughter<S>1</S> of my mother,<S>1323</S> and she became<S>517</S> my wife;<S>1961</S>

And Abimelech<S>40</S> said,<S>559</S> "Behold,<S>2009</S> my land<S>776</S> is before<S>6440</S> you; settle<S>3427</S> wherever you please.<S>2896</S> <S>5869</S>"


text:
<pb/>And to Sarah<S>8283</S> he said,<S>559</S> "Behold,<S>2009</S> I have given<S>5414</S> your brother<S>251</S> a thousand<S>505</S> pieces of silver;<S>3701</S> behold,<S>2009</S> it is your vindication<S>3682</S> before all<S>3605</S> who<S>834</S> are with you, and before<S>854</S> all<S>3605</S> men<S>3605</S> you are cleared.<S>3198</S>"


text:
<pb/>And Abraham<S>85</S> prayed<S>6419</S> to God;<S>430</S> and God<S>430</S> healed<S>7495</S> Abimelech<S>40</S> and his wife<S>802</S> and his maids,<S>519</S> so that they bore<S>3205</S> [children.]


text:
For the Lord<S>3068</S> had closed<S>6113</S> fast<S>6113</S> all<S>3605</S> the wombs<S>7358</S> of the household<S>1004</S> of Abimelech<S>40</S> because<S>5921</S> <S>1697</S> of Sarah,<S>8283</S> Abraham's wife.<S>802</S>


text:
<pb/>Then the Lord<S>3068</S> took<S>6485</S> note<S>6485</S> of Sarah<S>8283</S> as He had said,<S>559</S> and the Lord<S>3068</S> did<S>6213</S> for Sarah<S>8283</S> as He had promised.<S>1696</S>


text:
So Sarah<S>8283</S> conceived<S>2029</S> and bore<S>3205</S> a son<S>1121</S> to Abraham<S>85</S> in his old<S>2208</S> age,<S>2208</S> at the appointed<S>4150</S> time<S>4150</S> of which<S>834</S> God<S>430</S> had spoken<S>1696</S> to him.


text:
And Abraham<S>85</S> called<S>7121</S> the name<S>8034</S> of his son<S>1121</S> who was born<S>3205</S> to him, whom<S>834</S> Sarah<S>8283</S> bore<S>3205</S> to him, Isaac.<S>3327</S>


text:
Then Abraham<S>85</S> circumcised<S>4135</S> his son<S>1121</S> Isaac<S>3327</S> when he was eight<S>8083</S> days<S>3117</S> old,<S>1121</S> as God<S>430</S> had commanded<S>6680</S> him.


text:
Now Abraham<S>85</S> was one hundred<S>3967</S> years<S>8141</S> old<S>1121</S> when his son<S>1121</S> Isaac<S>3327</S> was born<S>3205</S> to him.


text:
<pb/>And Sarah<S>8283</S> said,<S>559</S> "God<S>430</S> has made<S>6213</S> laughter<S>6712</S> for me; everyone<S>3605</S> who hears<S>8085</S> will laugh<S>6711</S> with me."


text:
And she said,<S>559</S> "Who<S>4310</S> would have said<S>559</S> to Abraham<S>85</S> that Sarah<S>8283</S> would nurse<S>3243</S> children<S>1121</S>? Yet<S>3588</S> I have borne<S>3205</S> him a son<S>1121</S> in his old<S>2208</S> age.<S>2208</S>"


text:
<pb/>And the child<S>3206</S> grew<S>1431</S> and was weaned,<S>1580</S> and Abraham<S>85</S> made<S>6213</S> a great<S>1419</S> feast<S>4960</S> on the day<S>3117</S> that Isaac<S>3327</S> was weaned.<S>1580</S>


text:
Now Sarah<S>8283</S> saw<S>7200</S> the son<S>1121</S> of Hagar<S>1904</S> the Egyptian,<S>4713</S> whom<S>834</S> she had borne<S>3205</S> to Abraham,<S>85</S> mocking.<S>6711</S>


text:
Therefore she said<S>559</S> to Abraham,<S>85</S> "Drive<S>1644</S> out this<S>2088</S> maid<S>519</S> and her son,<S>1121</S> for the son<S>1121</S> of this<S>2088</S> maid<S>519</S> shall not be an heir<S>3423</S> with my son<S>1121</S> Isaac.<S>3327</S>"


text:
<pb/>And the matter<S>1697</S> distressed<S>7489</S> Abraham<S>85</S> greatly<S>3966</S> because<S>5921</S> <S>182</S> of his son.<S>1121</S>


text:
But God<S>430</S> said<S>559</S> to Abraham,<S>85</S> "Do not be distressed<S>7489</S> because<S>5921</S> of the lad<S>5288</S> and your maid;<S>519</S> whatever<S>3605</S> <S>834</S> Sarah<S>8283</S> tells<S>559</S> you, listen<S>8085</S> to her, for through<S>4480</S> Isaac<S>3327</S> your descendants<S>2233</S> shall be named.<S>7121</S>


text:
"And of the son<S>1121</S> of the maid<S>519</S> I will make<S>7760</S> a nation<S>1471</S> also,<S>1571</S> because<S>3588</S> he is your descendant.<S>2233</S>"


text:
<pb/>So Abraham<S>85</S> rose<S>7925</S> early<S>7925</S> in the morning,<S>1242</S> and took<S>3947</S> bread<S>3899</S> and a skin<S>2573</S> of water,<S>4325</S> and gave<S>5414</S> [them] to Hagar,<S>1904</S> putting<S>7760</S> [them] on her shoulder,<S>7926</S> and [gave her] the boy,<S>3206</S> and sent<S>7971</S> her away.<S>7971</S> And she departed,<S>1980</S> and wandered<S>8582</S> about in the wilderness<S>4057</S> of Beersheba.<S>884</S>


text:
And the water<S>4325</S> in the skin<S>2573</S> was used<S>3615</S> up, and she left<S>7993</S> the boy<S>3206</S> under<S>8478</S> one<S>259</S> of the bushes.<S>7880</S>


text:
Then she went<S>1980</S> and sat<S>3427</S> down<S>3427</S> opposite<S>4480</S> <S>5048</S> him, about a bowshot<S>2909</S> <S>7198</S> away,<S>7368</S> for she said,<S>559</S> "Do not let me see<S>7200</S> the boy<S>3206</S> die.<S>4194</S>" And she sat<S>3427</S> opposite<S>4480</S> <S>5048</S> him, and lifted<S>5375</S> up her voice<S>6963</S> and wept.<S>1058</S>


text:
<pb/>And God<S>430</S> heard<S>8085</S> the lad<S>5288</S> crying;<S>6963</S> and the angel<S>4397</S> of God<S>430</S> called<S>7121</S> to Hagar<S>1904</S> from heaven,<S>8064</S> and said<S>559</S> to her, "What<S>4100</S> is the matter with you, Hagar<S>1904</S>? Do not fear,<S>3372</S> for God<S>430</S> has heard<S>8085</S> the voice<S>6963</S> of the lad<S>5288</S> where<S>834</S> <S>8033</S> he is.


text:
"Arise,<S>6965</S> lift<S>5375</S> up the lad,<S>5288</S> and hold<S>2388</S> him by the hand;<S>3027</S> for I will make<S>7760</S> a great<S>1419</S> nation<S>1471</S> of him."


text:
Then God<S>430</S> opened<S>6491</S> her eyes<S>5869</S> and she saw<S>7200</S> a well<S>875</S> of water;<S>4325</S> and she went<S>1980</S> and filled<S>4390</S> the skin<S>2573</S> with water,<S>4325</S> and gave<S>8248</S> the lad<S>5288</S> a drink.<S>8248</S>


text:
<pb/>And God<S>430</S> was with the lad,<S>5288</S> and he grew;<S>1431</S> and he lived<S>3427</S> in the wilderness,<S>4057</S> and became<S>1961</S> an archer.<S>9540</S> <S>7199</S>


text:
And he lived<S>3427</S> in the wilderness<S>4057</S> of Paran;<S>6290</S> and his mother<S>517</S> took<S>3947</S> a wife<S>802</S> for him from the land<S>776</S> of Egypt.<S>4714</S>


text:
<pb/>Now it came<S>1961</S> about at that time,<S>6256</S> that Abimelech<S>40</S> and Phicol,<S>6369</S> the commander<S>8269</S> of his army,<S>6635</S> spoke<S>559</S> to Abraham,<S>85</S> saying,<S>559</S> "God<S>430</S> is with you in all<S>3605</S> that you do;<S>6213</S>


text:
now<S>6258</S> therefore, swear<S>7650</S> to me here<S>2008</S> by God<S>430</S> that you will not deal<S>8266</S> falsely<S>8266</S> with me, or with my offspring,<S>5209</S> or with my posterity;<S>5220</S> but according to the kindness<S>2617</S> that I have shown<S>6213</S> to you, you shall show<S>6213</S> to me, and to the land<S>776</S> in which<S>834</S> you have sojourned.<S>1481</S> "


text:
But Abraham<S>85</S> complained<S>3198</S> to Abimelech<S>40</S> because<S>5921</S> <S>182</S> of the well<S>875</S> of water<S>4325</S> which<S>834</S> the servants<S>5650</S> of Abimelech<S>40</S> had seized.<S>1497</S>

And Abimelech<S>40</S> said,<S>559</S> "I do not know<S>3045</S> who<S>4310</S> has done<S>6213</S> this<S>2088</S> thing;<S>1697</S> neither<S>3808</S> did you tell<S>5046</S> me, nor<S>571</S> <S>3808</S> did I hear<S>8085</S> of it until<S>1115</S> today.<S>3117</S>"


text:
<pb/>And Abraham<S>85</S> took<S>3947</S> sheep<S>6629</S> and oxen,<S>1241</S> and gave<S>5414</S> them to Abimelech;<S>40</S> and the two<S>8147</S> of them made<S>3772</S> a covenant.<S>1285</S>


text:
Then Abraham<S>85</S> set<S>5324</S> seven<S>7651</S> ewe<S>3535</S> lambs<S>3535</S> of the flock<S>6629</S> by themselves.<S>905</S>

And Abimelech<S>40</S> said<S>559</S> to Abraham,<S>85</S> "What<S>4100</S> do these<S>428</S> seven<S>7651</S> ewe<S>3535</S> lambs<S>3535</S> mean, which<S>834</S> you have set<S>5324</S> by themselves<S>905</S>?"

And he said,<S>559</S> "You shall take<S>3947</S> these seven<S>7651</S> ewe<S>3535</S> lambs<S>3535</S> from my hand<S>3027</S> in order<S>5668</S> that it may be a witness<S>5713</S> to me, that I dug<S>2658</S> this<S>2088</S> well.<S>875</S>"


text:
Therefore<S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> he called<S>7121</S> that place<S>4725</S> Beersheba;<S>884</S> because<S>3588</S> there<S>8033</S> the two<S>8147</S> of them took<S>7650</S> an oath.<S>7650</S>

<pb/>So they made<S>3772</S> a covenant<S>1285</S> at Beersheba;<S>884</S> and Abimelech<S>40</S> and Phicol,<S>6369</S> the commander<S>8269</S> of his army,<S>6635</S> arose<S>6965</S> and returned<S>7725</S> to the land<S>776</S> of the Philistines.<S>6430</S>


text:
And [Abraham] planted<S>5193</S> a tamarisk<S>815</S> tree<S>815</S> at Beersheba,<S>884</S> and there<S>8033</S> he called<S>7121</S> on the name<S>8034</S> of the Lord,<S>3068</S> the Everlasting<S>5769</S> God.<S>410</S>


text:
And Abraham<S>85</S> sojourned<S>1481</S> in the land<S>776</S> of the Philistines<S>6430</S> for many<S>7227</S> days.<S>3117</S>


text:
<pb/>Now it came<S>1961</S> about after<S>310</S> these<S>428</S> things,<S>1697</S> that God<S>430</S> tested<S>5254</S> Abraham,<S>85</S> and said<S>559</S> to him, "Abraham!<S>85</S>" And he said,<S>559</S> "Here<S>2009</S> I am."

And He said,<S>559</S> "Take<S>3947</S> now<S>4994</S> your son,<S>1121</S> your only<S>3173</S> son, whom<S>834</S> you love,<S>157</S> Isaac,<S>3327</S> and go<S>1980</S> to the land<S>776</S> of Moriah;<S>4179</S> and offer<S>5927</S> him there<S>8033</S> as a burnt<S>5930</S> offering<S>5930</S> on one<S>259</S> of the mountains<S>2022</S> of which<S>834</S> I will tell<S>559</S> you."

<pb/>So Abraham<S>85</S> rose<S>7925</S> early<S>7925</S> in the morning<S>1242</S> and saddled<S>2280</S> his donkey,<S>2543</S> and took<S>3947</S> two<S>8147</S> of his young<S>5288</S> men<S>5288</S> with him and Isaac<S>3327</S> his son;<S>1121</S> and he split<S>1234</S> wood<S>6086</S> for the burnt<S>5930</S> offering,<S>5930</S> and arose<S>6965</S> and went<S>1980</S> to the place<S>4725</S> of which<S>834</S> God<S>430</S> had told<S>559</S> him.

<pb/>On the third<S>7992</S> day<S>3117</S> Abraham<S>85</S> raised<S>5375</S> his eyes<S>5869</S> and saw<S>7200</S> the place<S>4725</S> from a distance.<S>7350</S>

<pb/>So Abraham<S>85</S> returned<S>7725</S> to his young<S>5288</S> men,<S>5288</S> and they arose<S>6965</S> and went<S>1980</S> together<S>9191</S> to Beersheba;<S>884</S> and Abraham<S>85</S> lived<S>3427</S> at Beersheba.<S>884</S>

<pb/>Then Abraham<S>85</S> rose<S>6965</S> from before<S>6440</S> his dead,<S>4191</S> and spoke<S>1696</S> to the sons<S>1121</S> of Heth,<S>2845</S> saying,<S>559</S>

<pb/>Then the man<S>376</S> bowed<S>6915</S> low<S>6915</S> and worshiped<S>7812</S> the Lord.<S>3068</S>

And he said,<S>559</S> "Come<S>935</S> in, blessed<S>1288</S> of the Lord!<S>3068</S> Why<S>4100</S> do you stand<S>5975</S> outside<S>2351</S> since I have prepared<S>6437</S> the house,<S>1004</S> and a place<S>4725</S> for the camels<S>1581</S>?"

<pb/>So the man<S>376</S> entered<S>935</S> the house.<S>1004</S> Then Laban unloaded<S>6605</S> the camels,<S>1581</S> and he gave<S>5414</S> straw<S>8401</S> and feed<S>4554</S> to the camels,<S>1581</S> and water<S>4325</S> to wash<S>7364</S> his feet<S>7272</S> and the feet<S>7272</S> of the men<S>376</S> who<S>834</S> were with him.

But her brother<S>251</S> and her mother<S>517</S> said,<S>559</S> "Let the girl<S>5291</S> stay<S>3427</S> with us [a few] days,<S>3117</S> say<S>176</S> ten;<S>6218</S> afterward<S>310</S> she may go.<S>1980</S>"

And the Lord<S>3068</S> said<S>559</S> to her, <t>"Two<S>8147</S> nations<S>1471</S> are in your womb;<S>990</S> And two<S>8147</S> peoples<S>3816</S> shall be separated<S>6504</S> from your body;<S>4578</S> And one people<S>3816</S> shall be stronger<S>553</S> than<S>4480</S> the other;<S>3816</S> And the older<S>7227</S> shall serve<S>5647</S> the younger.<S>6810</S>"</t>

When her days<S>3117</S> to be delivered<S>3205</S> were fulfilled,<S>4390</S> behold,<S>2009</S> there were twins<S>9639</S> in her womb.<S>990</S>


text:
Now the first<S>7223</S> came<S>3318</S> forth<S>3318</S> red,<S>132</S> all<S>3605</S> over like a hairy<S>8181</S> garment;<S>155</S> and they named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Esau.<S>6215</S>


text:
And afterward<S>310</S> <S>3651</S> his brother<S>251</S> came<S>3318</S> forth<S>3318</S> with his hand<S>3027</S> holding<S>270</S> on to Esau's heel,<S>6119</S> so his name<S>8034</S> was called<S>7121</S> Jacob;<S>3290</S> and Isaac<S>3327</S> was sixty<S>8346</S> years<S>8141</S> old<S>1121</S> when she gave<S>3205</S> birth<S>3205</S> to them.


text:
<pb/>When the boys<S>5288</S> grew<S>1431</S> up, Esau<S>6215</S> became<S>1961</S> a skillful<S>3045</S> hunter,<S>376</S> <S>6718</S> a man<S>376</S> of the field;<S>7704</S> but Jacob<S>3290</S> was a peaceful<S>8535</S> man,<S>376</S> living<S>3427</S> in tents.<S>168</S>


text:
Now Isaac<S>3327</S> loved<S>157</S> Esau,<S>6215</S> because<S>3588</S> he had a taste<S>6310</S> for game;<S>6718</S> but Rebekah<S>7259</S> loved<S>157</S> Jacob.<S>3290</S>


text:
<pb/>And when Jacob<S>3290</S> had cooked<S>2102</S> stew,<S>5138</S> Esau<S>6215</S> came<S>935</S> in from the field<S>7704</S> and he was famished;<S>5889</S>


text:
and Esau<S>6215</S> said<S>559</S> to Jacob,<S>3290</S> "Please<S>4994</S> let me have<S>3938</S> a swallow<S>3938</S> of that red<S>122</S> stuff<S>123</S> there, for I am famished.<S>5889</S>" Therefore<S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> his name<S>8034</S> was called<S>7121</S> Edom.<S>9000</S>


text:
<pb/>But Jacob<S>3290</S> said,<S>559</S> "First<S>3117</S> sell<S>4376</S> me your birthright.<S>1062</S>"


text:
And Esau<S>6215</S> said,<S>559</S> "Behold,<S>2009</S> I am<S>1980</S> about<S>1980</S> to die;<S>4191</S> so of what<S>4100</S> [use] then is the birthright<S>1062</S> to me?"


text:
And Jacob<S>3290</S> said,<S>559</S> "First<S>3117</S> swear<S>7650</S> to me"; so he swore<S>7650</S> to him, and sold<S>4376</S> his birthright<S>1062</S> to Jacob.<S>3290</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Jacob<S>3290</S> gave<S>5414</S> Esau<S>6215</S> bread<S>3899</S> and lentil<S>5742</S> stew;<S>5138</S> and he ate<S>398</S> and drank,<S>8354</S> and rose<S>6965</S> and went<S>1980</S> on his way.<S>1980</S> Thus Esau<S>6215</S> despised<S>959</S> his birthright.<S>1062</S>


text:
<pb/>Now there was a famine<S>7458</S> in the land,<S>776</S> besides<S>4480</S> <S>905</S> the previous<S>7223</S> famine<S>7458</S> that had occurred<S>1961</S> in the days<S>3117</S> of Abraham.<S>85</S> So Isaac<S>3327</S> went<S>1980</S> to Gerar,<S>1642</S> to Abimelech<S>40</S> king<S>4428</S> of the Philistines.<S>6430</S>


text:
And the Lord<S>3068</S> appeared<S>7200</S> to him and said,<S>559</S> "Do not go<S>3381</S> down<S>3381</S> to Egypt;<S>4714</S> stay<S>7931</S> in the land<S>776</S> of which<S>834</S> I shall tell<S>559</S> you.

"Sojourn<S>1481</S> in this<S>2088</S> land<S>776</S> and I will be with you and bless<S>1288</S> you, for to you and to your descendants<S>2233</S> I will give<S>5414</S> all<S>3605</S> these<S>411</S> lands,<S>776</S> and I will establish<S>6965</S> the oath<S>7621</S> which<S>834</S> I swore<S>7650</S> to your father Abraham.<S>1</S>

"And I will multiply<S>7235</S> your descendants<S>2233</S> as the stars<S>3556</S> of heaven,<S>8064</S> and will give<S>5414</S> your descendants<S>2233</S> all<S>3605</S> these<S>411</S> lands;<S>776</S> and by your descendants<S>2233</S> all<S>3605</S> the nations<S>1471</S> of the earth<S>776</S> shall be blessed;<S>1288</S>

because<S>6118</S> <S>834</S> Abraham<S>85</S> obeyed<S>8085</S> <S>6963</S> Me and kept<S>8104</S> My charge,<S>4931</S> My commandments,<S>4687</S> My statutes<S>2708</S> and My laws.<S>8451</S> "


text:
<pb/>When the men<S>376</S> of the place<S>4725</S> asked<S>7592</S> about his wife,<S>802</S> he said,<S>559</S> "She is my sister,<S>269</S>" for he was afraid<S>3372</S> to say,<S>559</S> "my wife,<S>802</S>" [thinking,] "the men<S>376</S> of the place<S>4725</S> might kill<S>2026</S> me on account<S>5921</S> of Rebekah,<S>7259</S> for she is beautiful.<S>2896</S>"

<pb/>And it came<S>1961</S> about, when<S>3588</S> he had been there<S>8033</S> a long<S>748</S> time,<S>3117</S> that Abimelech<S>40</S> king<S>4428</S> of the Philistines<S>6430</S> looked<S>8259</S> out through<S>1157</S> a window,<S>2474</S> and saw,<S>7200</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> Isaac<S>3327</S> was caressing<S>6711</S> his wife<S>802</S> Rebekah.<S>7259</S>


text:
Then Abimelech<S>40</S> called<S>7121</S> Isaac<S>3327</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Behold,<S>2009</S> certainly<S>389</S> she is your wife!<S>802</S> How<S>349</S> then did you say,<S>559</S> 'She is my sister<S>269</S>'?" And Isaac<S>3327</S> said<S>559</S> to him, "Because<S>3588</S> I said,<S>559</S> 'Lest<S>6435</S> I die<S>4191</S> on account<S>5921</S> of her.'"


text:
<pb/>And Abimelech<S>40</S> said,<S>559</S> "What<S>4100</S> is this<S>2088</S> you have done<S>6213</S> to us? One<S>259</S> of the people<S>5971</S> might easily<S>4592</S> have lain<S>7901</S> with your wife,<S>802</S> and you would have brought<S>935</S> guilt<S>817</S> upon us."


text:
So Abimelech<S>40</S> charged<S>6680</S> all<S>3605</S> the people,<S>5971</S> saying,<S>559</S> "He who touches<S>5060</S> this<S>2088</S> man<S>376</S> or his wife<S>802</S> shall surely<S>4191</S> be put<S>4191</S> to death.<S>4191</S>"


text:
<pb/>Now Isaac<S>3327</S> sowed<S>2232</S> in that land,<S>776</S> and reaped<S>4672</S> in the same<S>1931</S> year<S>8141</S> a hundredfold.<S>3967</S> <S>8180</S> And the Lord<S>3068</S> blessed<S>1288</S> him,


text:
and the man<S>376</S> became<S>1431</S> rich,<S>1431</S> and continued<S>1980</S> to grow<S>1432</S> richer<S>1432</S> until<S>5704</S> he became<S>1431</S> very<S>3966</S> wealthy;<S>1431</S>


text:
for he had<S>1961</S> possessions<S>4735</S> of flocks<S>6629</S> and herds<S>1241</S> and a great<S>7227</S> household,<S>5657</S> so that the Philistines<S>6430</S> envied<S>7065</S> him.


text:
Now all<S>3605</S> the wells<S>875</S> which<S>834</S> his father's servants<S>1</S> had dug<S>5650</S> in the days<S>2658</S> of Abraham<S>3117</S> his father, the Philistines<S>85</S> stopped<S>6430</S> up by filling<S>5640</S> them with earth.<S>4390</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Abimelech<S>40</S> said<S>559</S> to Isaac,<S>3327</S> "Go<S>1980</S> away from us, for you are too<S>3966</S> powerful<S>6105</S> for us."


text:
And Isaac<S>3327</S> departed<S>1980</S> from there<S>8033</S> and camped<S>2583</S> in the valley<S>5158</S> of Gerar,<S>1642</S> and settled<S>3427</S> there.<S>8033</S>


text:
Then Isaac<S>3327</S> dug<S>2658</S> again<S>7725</S> the wells<S>875</S> of water<S>4325</S> which<S>834</S> had been dug<S>2658</S> in the days<S>3117</S> of his father Abraham,<S>1</S> for the Philistines<S>85</S> had stopped<S>6430</S> them up after<S>5640</S> the death<S>310</S> of Abraham;<S>4194</S> and he gave<S>85</S> them the same<S>7121</S> names<S>8034</S> which<S>8034</S> his father had given<S>834</S> them.


text:
<pb/>But when Isaac's servants<S>5650</S> dug<S>2658</S> in the valley<S>5158</S> and found<S>4672</S> there<S>8033</S> a well<S>875</S> of flowing<S>2416</S> water,<S>4325</S>


text:
the herdsmen<S>7462</S> of Gerar<S>1642</S> quarreled<S>7378</S> with the herdsmen<S>7462</S> of Isaac,<S>3327</S> saying,<S>559</S> "The water<S>4325</S> is ours!" So he named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> the well<S>875</S> Esek,<S>6230</S> because<S>3588</S> they contended<S>6229</S> with him.


text:
Then they dug<S>2658</S> another<S>312</S> well,<S>875</S> and they quarreled<S>7378</S> over<S>5921</S> it too,<S>1571</S> so he named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> it Sitnah.<S>7856</S>


text:
And he moved<S>6275</S> away<S>6275</S> from there<S>8033</S> and dug<S>2658</S> another<S>312</S> well,<S>875</S> and they did not quarrel<S>7378</S> over<S>5921</S> it; so he named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> it Rehoboth,<S>7344</S> for he said,<S>559</S> "At last<S>3588</S> <S>6258</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> has made<S>7337</S> room<S>7337</S> for us, and we shall be fruitful<S>6509</S> in the land.<S>776</S>"


text:
And the Lord<S>3068</S> appeared<S>7200</S> to him the same<S>1931</S> night<S>3915</S> and said,<S>559</S> "I am the God<S>430</S> of your father Abraham;<S>1</S> Do not fear,<S>85</S> for I am with you.

text:
So he built<S>1129</S> an altar<S>4196</S> there,<S>8033</S> and called<S>7121</S> upon the name<S>8034</S> of the Lord,<S>3068</S> and pitched<S>5186</S> his tent<S>168</S> there;<S>8033</S> and there<S>8033</S> Isaac's servants<S>5650</S> dug<S>3738</S> a well.<S>875</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Abimelech<S>40</S> came<S>1980</S> to him from Gerar<S>1642</S> with his adviser<S>4828</S> Ahuzzath,<S>276</S> and Phicol<S>6369</S> the commander<S>8269</S> of his army.<S>6635</S>


text:
And Isaac<S>3327</S> said<S>559</S> to them, "Why<S>4069</S> have you come<S>935</S> to me, since you hate<S>8130</S> me, and have sent<S>7971</S> me away<S>7971</S> from you?"


text:
And they said,<S>559</S> "We see<S>7200</S> plainly<S>7200</S> that the Lord<S>3068</S> has been<S>1961</S> with you; so we said,<S>559</S> 'Let there now<S>4994</S> be an oath<S>423</S> between<S>996</S> us, [even] between<S>996</S> you and us, and let us make<S>3772</S> a covenant<S>1285</S> with you,


text:
that you will do<S>6213</S> us no<S>518</S> harm,<S>9567</S> just<S>9201</S> as we have not touched<S>5060</S> you and have done<S>6213</S> to you nothing<S>7534</S> but good,<S>9185</S> and have sent<S>7971</S> you away<S>7971</S> in peace.<S>7965</S> You are now<S>6258</S> the blessed<S>1288</S> of the Lord.<S>3068</S>' "


text:
And in the morning<S>1242</S> they arose<S>7925</S> early<S>7925</S> and exchanged<S>7650</S> oaths;<S>7650</S> then Isaac<S>3327</S> sent<S>7971</S> them away<S>7971</S> and they departed<S>1980</S> from him in peace.<S>7965</S>


text:
<pb/>Now it came<S>1961</S> about on the same<S>1931</S> day,<S>3117</S> that Isaac's servants<S>5650</S> came<S>935</S> in and told<S>5046</S> him about<S>5921</S> <S>182</S> the well<S>875</S> which<S>834</S> they had dug,<S>2658</S> and said<S>559</S> to him, "We have found<S>4672</S> water.<S>4325</S>"


text:
So he called<S>7121</S> it Shibah;<S>7656</S> therefore<S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> the name<S>8034</S> of the city<S>5892</S> is Beersheba<S>884</S> to this<S>2088</S> day.<S>3117</S>

<pb/>Now it came<S>1961</S> about, when<S>3588</S> Isaac<S>3327</S> was old,<S>2204</S> and his eyes<S>5869</S> were too<S>4480</S> dim<S>3543</S> to see,<S>7200</S> that he called<S>7121</S> his older<S>1419</S> son<S>1121</S> Esau<S>6215</S> and said<S>559</S> to him, "My son.<S>1121</S>" And he said<S>559</S> to him, "Here<S>2009</S> I am."

But his mother<S>517</S> said<S>559</S> to him, "Your curse<S>7045</S> be on me, my son;<S>1121</S> only<S>389</S> obey<S>8085</S> my voice,<S>6963</S> and go,<S>1980</S> get<S>3947</S> [them] for me."


text:
<pb/>So he went<S>1980</S> and got<S>3947</S> [them,] and brought<S>935</S> [them] to his mother;<S>517</S> and his mother<S>517</S> made<S>6213</S> savory<S>4303</S> food<S>4303</S> such<S>9201</S> as his father loved.<S>1</S>


text:
Then Rebekah<S>7259</S> took<S>3947</S> the best<S>9143</S> garments<S>899</S> of Esau<S>6215</S> her elder<S>1419</S> son,<S>1121</S> which<S>834</S> were with her in the house,<S>1004</S> and put<S>3847</S> them on Jacob<S>3290</S> her younger<S>6996</S> son.<S>1121</S>


text:
And she put<S>3847</S> the skins<S>5785</S> of the kids<S>1423</S> <S>5795</S> on his hands<S>3027</S> and on the smooth<S>9142</S> part<S>9142</S> of his neck.<S>6677</S>


text:
She also gave<S>5414</S> the savory<S>4303</S> food<S>4303</S> and the bread,<S>3899</S> which<S>834</S> she had made,<S>6213</S> to her son<S>1121</S> Jacob.<S>3290</S>


text:
<pb/>Then he came<S>935</S> to his father and said,<S>1</S> "My father." And he said,<S>559</S> "Here<S>1</S> I am. Who<S>559</S> are you, my son<S>2009</S>?"


text:
And Jacob<S>3290</S> said<S>559</S> to his father, "I am Esau<S>1</S> your first-born; I have done<S>6215</S> as you told<S>6213</S> me. Get<S>1696</S> up, please,<S>6965</S> sit<S>4994</S> and eat<S>3427</S> of my game,<S>398</S> that you may bless<S>6718</S> me."


text:
And Isaac<S>3327</S> said<S>559</S> to his son,<S>1121</S> "How<S>4100</S> is it that you have<S>4672</S> [it] so quickly,<S>4116</S> my son<S>1121</S>?" And he said,<S>559</S> "Because<S>3588</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> your God<S>430</S> caused [it] to happen<S>7136</S> to me."


text:
Then Isaac<S>3327</S> said<S>559</S> to Jacob,<S>3290</S> "Please<S>4994</S> come<S>5066</S> close,<S>5066</S> that I may feel<S>4184</S> you, my son,<S>1121</S> whether you are really<S>2088</S> my son<S>1121</S> Esau<S>6215</S> or<S>518</S> not."


text:
So Jacob<S>3290</S> came<S>5066</S> close<S>5066</S> to Isaac<S>3327</S> his father, and he felt<S>1</S> him and said,<S>4959</S> "The voice<S>559</S> is the voice<S>6963</S> of Jacob,<S>6963</S> but the hands<S>3290</S> are the hands<S>3027</S> of Esau.<S>3027</S>"


text:
And he did not recognize<S>5234</S> him, because<S>3588</S> his hands<S>3027</S> were hairy<S>9617</S> like his brother<S>251</S> Esau's hands;<S>3027</S> so he blessed<S>1288</S> him.


text:
And he said,<S>559</S> "Are you really<S>2088</S> my son<S>1121</S> Esau<S>6215</S>?" And he said,<S>559</S> "I am."


text:
So he said,<S>559</S> "Bring<S>5066</S> [it] to me, and I will eat<S>398</S> of my son's game,<S>6718</S> that I may bless<S>1288</S> you." And he brought<S>5066</S> [it] to him, and he ate;<S>398</S> he also brought<S>935</S> him wine<S>3196</S> and he drank.<S>8354</S>


text:
Then his father Isaac<S>1</S> said<S>3327</S> to him, "Please<S>559</S> come<S>4994</S> close<S>5066</S> and kiss<S>5066</S> me, my son.<S>5401</S>"


text:
So he came<S>5066</S> close<S>5066</S> and kissed<S>5401</S> him; and when he smelled<S>9552</S> the smell<S>7381</S> of his garments,<S>899</S> he blessed<S>1288</S> him and said,<S>559</S> <t>"See,<S>7200</S> the smell<S>7381</S> of my son<S>1121</S> Is like the smell<S>7381</S> of a field<S>7704</S> which<S>834</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> has blessed;<S>1288</S></t>


text:
<pb/><t>Now may God<S>430</S> give<S>5414</S> you of the dew<S>2919</S> of heaven,<S>8064</S> And of the fatness<S>9614</S> of the earth,<S>776</S> And an abundance<S>7230</S> of grain<S>1715</S> and new<S>8492</S> wine;<S>8492</S></t>


text:
<pb/><t>May peoples<S>5971</S> serve<S>5647</S> you, And nations<S>3816</S> bow<S>7812</S> down<S>7812</S> to you; Be master<S>1376</S> of your brothers,<S>251</S> And may your mother's sons<S>1121</S> bow<S>7812</S> down<S>7812</S> to you. Cursed<S>779</S> be those who curse<S>779</S> you, And blessed<S>1288</S> be those who bless<S>1288</S> you."</t>


text:
Now it came<S>1961</S> about, as soon<S>9201</S> as Isaac<S>3327</S> had finished<S>3615</S> blessing<S>1288</S> Jacob,<S>3290</S> and Jacob<S>3290</S> had hardly<S>389</S> <S>3318</S> gone<S>3318</S> out from the presence<S>6440</S> of Isaac<S>3327</S> his father, that Esau<S>1</S> his brother<S>6215</S> came<S>251</S> in from his hunting.<S>935</S>


text:
Then he also<S>1571</S> made<S>6213</S> savory<S>4303</S> food,<S>4303</S> and brought<S>935</S> it to his father; and he said<S>1</S> to his father, "Let my father arise,<S>559</S> and eat<S>1</S> of his son's game,<S>1</S> that you may bless<S>6965</S> me."


text:
And Isaac<S>3327</S> his father said<S>1</S> to him, "Who<S>559</S> are you?" And he said,<S>4310</S> "I am your son,<S>559</S> your first-born, Esau.<S>1121</S>"


text:
Then Isaac<S>3327</S> trembled<S>2729</S> violently<S>2731</S> <S>1419</S>,<S>5704</S> <S>3966</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Who<S>4310</S> was he then<S>645</S> that hunted<S>6679</S> game<S>6718</S> and brought<S>935</S> [it] to me, so that I ate<S>398</S> of all<S>3605</S> [of it] before<S>2962</S> you came,<S>935</S> and blessed<S>1288</S> him? Yes,<S>1571</S> and he shall be blessed.<S>1288</S>"


text:
<pb/>When Esau<S>6215</S> heard<S>8085</S> the words<S>1697</S> of his father, he cried<S>1</S> out with an exceedingly<S>6817</S> great<S>3966</S> and bitter<S>1419</S> cry,<S>4751</S> and said<S>6818</S> to his father, "Bless<S>559</S> me, [even] me also,<S>1</S> O my father!"


text:
And he said,<S>559</S> "Your brother<S>251</S> came<S>935</S> deceitfully,<S>4820</S> and has taken<S>3947</S> away your blessing.<S>1293</S>"


text:
Then he said,<S>559</S> "Is he not rightly named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> Jacob,<S>3290</S> for he has supplanted<S>6117</S> me these<S>2088</S> two<S>6471</S> times<S>6471</S>? He took<S>3947</S> away my birthright,<S>1062</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> now<S>6258</S> he has taken<S>3947</S> away my blessing.<S>1293</S>" And he said,<S>559</S> "Have you not reserved<S>680</S> a blessing<S>1293</S> for me?"


text:
<pb/>But Isaac<S>3327</S> answered<S>6030</S> and said<S>559</S> to Esau,<S>6215</S> "Behold,<S>2005</S> I have made<S>7760</S> him your master,<S>1376</S> and all<S>3605</S> his relatives<S>251</S> I have given<S>5414</S> to him as servants;<S>5650</S> and with grain<S>1715</S> and new<S>8492</S> wine<S>8492</S> I have sustained<S>5564</S> him. Now as for you then,<S>645</S> what<S>4100</S> can I do,<S>6213</S> my son<S>1121</S>?"


text:
And Esau<S>6215</S> said<S>559</S> to his father, "Do you have only one<S>1</S> blessing,<S>259</S> my father? Bless<S>1293</S> me, [even] me also,<S>1</S> O my father." So Esau<S>1288</S> lifted<S>1571</S> his voice<S>1</S> and wept.<S>6215</S>


text:
<pb/><t>Then Isaac<S>3327</S> his father answered<S>1</S> and said<S>6030</S> to him, "Behold,<S>559</S> away from the fertility<S>2009</S> of the earth<S>9614</S> shall be your dwelling,<S>776</S> And away from the dew<S>4186</S> of heaven<S>2919</S> from above.<S>8064</S></t>


text:
<pb/><t>"And by your sword<S>2719</S> you shall live,<S>2421</S> And your brother<S>251</S> you shall serve;<S>5647</S> But it shall come<S>1961</S> about when<S>9201</S> you become<S>7300</S> restless,<S>7300</S> That you shall break<S>6561</S> his yoke<S>5923</S> from your neck.<S>6677</S>"</t>


text:
So Esau<S>6215</S> bore<S>7852</S> a grudge<S>7852</S> against<S>7852</S> Jacob<S>3290</S> because<S>5921</S> of the blessing<S>1293</S> with which<S>834</S> his father had blessed<S>1</S> him; and Esau<S>1288</S> said<S>6215</S> to himself,<S>559</S> "The days<S>3820</S> of mourning<S>3117</S> for my father are near;<S>60</S> then I will kill<S>1</S> my brother<S>7126</S> Jacob.<S>2026</S>"


text:
<pb/>Now when the words<S>1697</S> of her elder<S>1419</S> son<S>1121</S> Esau<S>6215</S> were reported<S>5046</S> to Rebekah,<S>7259</S> she sent<S>7971</S> and called<S>7121</S> her younger<S>6996</S> son<S>1121</S> Jacob,<S>3290</S> and said<S>559</S> to him, "Behold<S>2009</S> your brother<S>251</S> Esau<S>6215</S> is consoling<S>5162</S> himself concerning you, [by planning] to kill<S>2026</S> you.


text:
"Now<S>6258</S> therefore, my son,<S>1121</S> obey<S>8085</S> my voice,<S>6963</S> and arise,<S>6965</S> flee<S>1272</S> to Haran,<S>2771</S> to my brother<S>251</S> Laban!<S>3837</S>


text:
"And stay<S>3427</S> with him a few<S>259</S> days,<S>3117</S> until<S>5704</S> <S>834</S> your brother's fury<S>2534</S> subsides,<S>7725</S>


text:
until<S>5704</S> your brother's anger<S>639</S> against<S>4480</S> you subsides,<S>7725</S> and he forgets<S>7911</S> what<S>834</S> you did<S>6213</S> to him. Then I shall send<S>7971</S> and get<S>3947</S> you from there.<S>8033</S> Why<S>4100</S> should I be bereaved<S>7921</S> of you both<S>8147</S> in one<S>259</S> day<S>3117</S>? "


text:
<pb/>And Rebekah<S>7259</S> said<S>559</S> to Isaac,<S>3327</S> "I am tired<S>6973</S> of living<S>9132</S> because<S>4480</S> <S>6440</S> of the daughters<S>1323</S> of Heth;<S>2845</S> if<S>518</S> Jacob<S>3290</S> takes<S>3947</S> a wife<S>802</S> from the daughters<S>1323</S> of Heth,<S>2845</S> like these,<S>428</S> from the daughters<S>1323</S> of the land,<S>776</S> what<S>4100</S> good will my life<S>9132</S> be to me?"


text:
So Isaac<S>3327</S> called<S>7121</S> Jacob<S>3290</S> and blessed<S>1288</S> him and charged<S>6680</S> him, and said<S>559</S> to him, "You shall not take<S>3947</S> a wife<S>802</S> from the daughters<S>1323</S> of Canaan.<S>3667</S>


text:
"Arise,<S>6965</S> go<S>1980</S> to Paddan-aram, to the house<S>1004</S> of Bethuel<S>1328</S> your mother's father; and from there<S>1</S> take<S>8033</S> to yourself a wife<S>3947</S> from the daughters<S>802</S> of Laban<S>1323</S> your mother's brother.<S>3837</S>


text:
"And may God<S>410</S> Almighty<S>7706</S> bless<S>1288</S> you and make<S>6509</S> you fruitful<S>6509</S> and multiply<S>7235</S> you, that you may become<S>1961</S> a company<S>6951</S> of peoples.<S>5971</S>


text:
"May He also give<S>5414</S> you the blessing<S>1293</S> of Abraham,<S>85</S> to you and to your descendants<S>2233</S> with you; that you may possess<S>3423</S> the land<S>776</S> of your sojournings,<S>4033</S> which<S>834</S> God<S>430</S> gave<S>5414</S> to Abraham.<S>85</S>"


text:
Then Isaac<S>3327</S> sent<S>7971</S> Jacob<S>3290</S> away,<S>7971</S> and he went<S>1980</S> to Paddan-aram to Laban,<S>3837</S> son<S>1121</S> of Bethuel<S>1328</S> the Aramean,<S>761</S> the brother<S>251</S> of Rebekah,<S>7259</S> the mother<S>517</S> of Jacob<S>3290</S> and Esau.<S>6215</S>


text:
<pb/>Now Esau<S>6215</S> saw<S>7200</S> that Isaac<S>3327</S> had blessed<S>1288</S> Jacob<S>3290</S> and sent<S>7971</S> him away<S>7971</S> to Paddan-aram, to take<S>3947</S> to himself a wife<S>802</S> from there,<S>8033</S> [and that] when he blessed<S>1288</S> him he charged<S>6680</S> him, saying,<S>559</S> "You shall not take<S>3947</S> a wife<S>802</S> from the daughters<S>1323</S> of Canaan,<S>3667</S>"


text:
and that Jacob<S>3290</S> had obeyed<S>8085</S> his father and his mother<S>1</S> and had gone<S>517</S> to Paddan-aram.


text:
So Esau<S>6215</S> saw<S>7200</S> that the daughters<S>1323</S> of Canaan<S>3667</S> displeased<S>7451</S> his father Isaac;<S>1</S>


text:
and Esau<S>6215</S> went<S>1980</S> to Ishmael,<S>3458</S> and married,<S>3947</S> <S>802</S> besides<S>5921</S> the wives<S>802</S> that he had, Mahalath<S>4258</S> the daughter<S>1323</S> of Ishmael,<S>3458</S> Abraham's son,<S>1121</S> the sister<S>269</S> of Nebaioth.<S>5032</S>


text:
Then Jacob<S>3290</S> departed<S>3318</S> from Beersheba<S>884</S> and went<S>1980</S> toward Haran.<S>2771</S>


text:
And he came<S>6293</S> to a certain place<S>4725</S> and spent<S>3885</S> the night<S>3885</S> there,<S>8033</S> because<S>3588</S> the sun<S>8121</S> had set;<S>935</S> and he took<S>3947</S> one of the stones<S>68</S> of the place<S>4725</S> and put<S>7760</S> it under his head,<S>4763</S> and lay<S>7901</S> down<S>7901</S> in that place.<S>4725</S>


text:
And he had<S>2492</S> a dream,<S>2492</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> a ladder<S>5551</S> was set<S>5324</S> on the earth<S>776</S> with its top<S>7218</S> reaching<S>5060</S> to heaven;<S>8064</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> the angels<S>4397</S> of God<S>430</S> were ascending<S>5927</S> and descending<S>3381</S> on it.


text:
And behold,<S>2009</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> stood<S>5324</S> above<S>5921</S> it and said,<S>559</S> "I am the Lord,<S>3068</S> the God<S>430</S> of your father Abraham<S>1</S> and the God<S>85</S> of Isaac;<S>430</S> the land<S>3327</S> on which<S>776</S> you lie,<S>834</S> I will give<S>7901</S> it to you and to your descendants.<S>5414</S>


text:
"Your descendants<S>2233</S> shall also be like the dust<S>6083</S> of the earth,<S>776</S> and you shall spread<S>6555</S> out to the west<S>3220</S> and to the east<S>9506</S> and to the north<S>6828</S> and to the south;<S>5045</S> and in you and in your descendants<S>2233</S> shall all<S>3605</S> the families<S>4940</S> of the earth<S>127</S> be blessed.<S>1288</S>


text:
"And behold,<S>2009</S> I am with you, and will keep<S>8104</S> you wherever<S>3605</S> <S>834</S> you go,<S>1980</S> and will bring<S>7725</S> you back<S>7725</S> to this<S>2088</S> land;<S>127</S> for I will not leave<S>5800</S> you until<S>5704</S> <S>834</S> I have done<S>6213</S> what<S>834</S> I have promised<S>1696</S> you."


text:
<pb/>Then Jacob<S>3290</S> awoke<S>3364</S> from his sleep<S>8142</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Surely<S>403</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> is in this<S>2088</S> place,<S>4725</S> and I did not know<S>3045</S> it."


text:
And he was afraid<S>3372</S> and said,<S>559</S> "How<S>4100</S> awesome<S>3372</S> is this<S>2088</S> place!<S>4725</S> This<S>2088</S> is none<S>369</S> other<S>369</S> than<S>3588</S> <S>518</S> the house<S>1004</S> of God,<S>430</S> and this<S>2088</S> is the gate<S>8179</S> of heaven.<S>8064</S>"


text:
So Jacob<S>3290</S> rose<S>7925</S> early<S>7925</S> in the morning,<S>1242</S> and took<S>3947</S> the stone<S>68</S> that he had put<S>7760</S> under his head<S>4763</S> and set<S>7760</S> it up as a pillar,<S>4676</S> and poured<S>3332</S> oil<S>8081</S> on its top.<S>7218</S>

And he called<S>7121</S> the name<S>8034</S> of that place<S>4725</S> Bethel;<S>1008</S> however,<S>199</S> previously<S>7223</S> the name<S>8034</S> of the city<S>5892</S> had been Luz.<S>3870</S>

Then Jacob<S>3290</S> made<S>5087</S> a vow,<S>5088</S> saying,<S>559</S> "If<S>518</S> God<S>430</S> will be with me and will keep<S>8104</S> me on this<S>2088</S> journey<S>1870</S> that I take,<S>1980</S> and will give<S>5414</S> me food<S>3899</S> to eat<S>398</S> and garments<S>899</S> to wear,<S>3847</S>


text:
and I return<S>7725</S> to my father's house<S>1004</S> in safety,<S>7965</S> then the Lord<S>3068</S> will be my God.<S>430</S>


text:
"And this<S>2088</S> stone,<S>68</S> which<S>834</S> I have set<S>7760</S> up as a pillar,<S>4676</S> will be God's house;<S>1004</S> and of all<S>3605</S> that Thou dost give<S>5414</S> me I will surely<S>6237</S> give<S>6237</S> a tenth<S>6237</S> to Thee."


text:
<pb/>Then Jacob<S>3290</S> went<S>5375</S> on his journey,<S>7272</S> and came<S>1980</S> to the land<S>776</S> of the sons<S>1121</S> of the east.<S>6924</S>


text:
And he looked,<S>7200</S> and saw<S>7200</S> a well<S>875</S> in the field,<S>7704</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> three<S>7969</S> flocks<S>5739</S> of sheep<S>6629</S> were lying<S>7257</S> there<S>8033</S> beside<S>5921</S> it, for from that well<S>875</S> they watered<S>8248</S> the flocks.<S>5739</S> Now the stone<S>68</S> on the mouth<S>6310</S> of the well<S>875</S> was large.<S>1419</S>


text:
When all<S>3605</S> the flocks<S>5739</S> were gathered<S>622</S> there,<S>8033</S> they would then roll<S>1556</S> the stone<S>68</S> from the mouth<S>6310</S> of the well,<S>875</S> and water<S>8248</S> the sheep,<S>6629</S> and put<S>7725</S> the stone<S>68</S> back<S>7725</S> in its place<S>4725</S> on the mouth<S>6310</S> of the well.<S>875</S>


text:
<pb/>And Jacob<S>3290</S> said<S>559</S> to them, "My brothers,<S>251</S> where<S>370</S> are you from?" And they said,<S>559</S> "We are from Haran.<S>2771</S>"


text:
And he said<S>559</S> to them, "Do you know<S>3045</S> Laban<S>3837</S> the son<S>1121</S> of Nahor<S>5152</S>?" And they said,<S>559</S> "We know<S>3045</S> [him.]"


text:
And he said<S>559</S> to them, "Is it well<S>7965</S> with him?" And they said,<S>559</S> "It is well,<S>7965</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> Rachel<S>7354</S> his daughter<S>1323</S> is coming<S>935</S> with the sheep.<S>6629</S>"


text:
And he said,<S>559</S> "Behold,<S>2005</S> it is still<S>5750</S> high<S>1419</S> day;<S>3117</S> it is not time<S>6256</S> for the livestock<S>4735</S> to be gathered.<S>622</S> Water<S>8248</S> the sheep,<S>6629</S> and go,<S>1980</S> pasture<S>7462</S> them."


text:
But they said,<S>559</S> "We cannot,<S>3201</S> <S>3808</S> until<S>5704</S> <S>834</S> all<S>3605</S> the flocks<S>5739</S> are gathered,<S>622</S> and they roll<S>1556</S> the stone<S>68</S> from the mouth<S>6310</S> of the well;<S>875</S> then we water<S>8248</S> the sheep.<S>6629</S>"


text:
<pb/>While he was still<S>5750</S> speaking<S>1696</S> with them, Rachel<S>7354</S> came<S>935</S> with her father's sheep,<S>6629</S> for she was a shepherdess.<S>7462</S>


text:
And it came<S>1961</S> about, when<S>9201</S> Jacob<S>3290</S> saw<S>7200</S> Rachel<S>7354</S> the daughter<S>1323</S> of Laban<S>3837</S> his mother's brother,<S>251</S> and the sheep<S>6629</S> of Laban<S>3837</S> his mother's brother,<S>251</S> that Jacob<S>3290</S> went<S>5066</S> up, and rolled<S>1556</S> the stone<S>68</S> from the mouth<S>6310</S> of the well,<S>875</S> and watered<S>8248</S> the flock<S>6629</S> of Laban<S>3837</S> his mother's brother.<S>251</S>


text:
Then Jacob<S>3290</S> kissed<S>5401</S> Rachel,<S>7354</S> and lifted<S>5375</S> his voice<S>6963</S> and wept.<S>1058</S>


text:
And Jacob<S>3290</S> told<S>5046</S> Rachel<S>7354</S> that he was a relative<S>251</S> of her father and that he was Rebekah's son,<S>1</S> and she ran<S>1121</S> and told<S>7323</S> her father.


text:
So it came<S>1961</S> about, when Laban<S>3837</S> heard<S>8085</S> the news<S>8088</S> of Jacob<S>3290</S> his sister's son,<S>1121</S> that he ran<S>7323</S> to meet<S>7122</S> him, and embraced<S>2263</S> him and kissed<S>5401</S> him, and brought<S>935</S> him to his house.<S>1004</S> Then he related<S>5608</S> to Laban<S>3837</S> all<S>3605</S> these<S>428</S> things.<S>1697</S>


text:
And Laban<S>3837</S> said<S>559</S> to him, "Surely<S>389</S> you are my bone<S>6106</S> and my flesh.<S>1320</S>" And he stayed<S>3427</S> with him a month.<S>2320</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Laban<S>3837</S> said<S>559</S> to Jacob,<S>3290</S> "Because<S>3588</S> you are my relative,<S>251</S> should you therefore serve<S>5647</S> me for nothing<S>2600</S>? Tell<S>5046</S> me, what<S>4100</S> shall your wages<S>4909</S> be?"


text:
Now Laban<S>3837</S> had two<S>8147</S> daughters;<S>1323</S> the name<S>8034</S> of the older<S>1419</S> was Leah,<S>3812</S> and the name<S>8034</S> of the younger<S>6996</S> was Rachel.<S>7354</S>


text:
And Leah's eyes<S>5869</S> were weak,<S>7390</S> but Rachel<S>7354</S> was beautiful<S>3303</S> of form<S>8389</S> and face.<S>4758</S>


text:
Now Jacob<S>3290</S> loved<S>157</S> Rachel,<S>7354</S> so he said,<S>559</S> "I will serve<S>5647</S> you seven<S>7651</S> years<S>8141</S> for your younger<S>6996</S> daughter<S>1323</S> Rachel.<S>7354</S>"


text:
And Laban<S>3837</S> said,<S>559</S> "It is better<S>2896</S> that I give<S>5414</S> her to you than<S>4480</S> that I should give<S>5414</S> her to another<S>312</S> man;<S>376</S> stay<S>3427</S> with me."


text:
So Jacob<S>3290</S> served<S>5647</S> seven<S>7651</S> years<S>8141</S> for Rachel<S>7354</S> and they seemed<S>1961</S> <S>5869</S> to him but a few<S>259</S> days<S>3117</S> because of his love<S>160</S> for her.


text:
<pb/>Then Jacob<S>3290</S> said<S>559</S> to Laban,<S>3837</S> "Give<S>3051</S> [me] my wife,<S>802</S> for my time<S>3117</S> is completed,<S>4390</S> that I may go<S>935</S> in to her."


text:
And Laban<S>3837</S> gathered<S>622</S> all<S>3605</S> the men<S>376</S> of the place,<S>4725</S> and made<S>6213</S> a feast.<S>4960</S>


text:
Now it came<S>1961</S> about in the evening<S>6153</S> that he took<S>3947</S> his daughter<S>1323</S> Leah,<S>3812</S> and brought<S>935</S> her to him; and [Jacob] went<S>935</S> in to her.


text:
Laban<S>3837</S> also gave<S>5414</S> his maid<S>8198</S> Zilpah<S>2153</S> to his daughter<S>1323</S> Leah<S>3812</S> as a maid.<S>8198</S>


text:
<pb/>So it came<S>1961</S> about in the morning<S>1242</S> that, behold,<S>2009</S> it was Leah!<S>3812</S> And he said<S>559</S> to Laban,<S>3837</S> "What<S>4100</S> is this<S>2088</S> you have done<S>6213</S> to me? Was it not for Rachel<S>7354</S> that I served<S>5647</S> with you? Why<S>4100</S> then have you deceived<S>7411</S> me?"


text:
But Laban<S>3837</S> said,<S>559</S> "It is not the practice<S>6213</S> <S>3651</S> in our place,<S>4725</S> to marry<S>5414</S> off<S>5414</S> the younger<S>6810</S> before<S>6440</S> the first-born.


text:
"Complete<S>4390</S> the week<S>7620</S> of this<S>2088</S> one,<S>2088</S> and we will give<S>5414</S> you the other<S>2088</S> also<S>1571</S> for the service<S>5656</S> which<S>834</S> you shall serve<S>5647</S> with me for another<S>312</S> seven<S>7651</S> years.<S>8141</S>"


text:
<pb/>And Jacob<S>3290</S> did<S>6213</S> so<S>3651</S> and completed<S>4390</S> her week,<S>7620</S> and he gave<S>5414</S> him his daughter<S>1323</S> Rachel<S>7354</S> as his wife.<S>802</S>


text:
Laban<S>3837</S> also gave<S>5414</S> his maid<S>8198</S> Bilhah<S>1090</S> to his daughter<S>1323</S> Rachel<S>7354</S> as her maid.<S>8198</S>


text:
So [Jacob] went<S>935</S> in to Rachel<S>7354</S> also,<S>1571</S> and indeed<S>1571</S> he loved<S>157</S> Rachel<S>7354</S> more<S>4480</S> than<S>4480</S> Leah,<S>3812</S> and he served<S>5647</S> with Laban for another<S>312</S> seven<S>7651</S> years.<S>8141</S>


text:
Now the Lord<S>3068</S> saw<S>7200</S> that Leah<S>3812</S> was unloved,<S>8130</S> and He opened<S>6605</S> her womb,<S>7358</S> but Rachel<S>7354</S> was barren.<S>6135</S>


text:
And Leah<S>3812</S> conceived<S>2029</S> and bore<S>3205</S> a son<S>1121</S> and named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Reuben,<S>7205</S> for she said,<S>559</S> "Because<S>3588</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> has seen<S>7200</S> my affliction;<S>6040</S> surely<S>3588</S> now<S>6258</S> my husband<S>376</S> will love<S>157</S> me."


text:
<pb/>Then she conceived<S>2029</S> again<S>5750</S> and bore<S>3205</S> a son<S>1121</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Because<S>3588</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> has heard<S>8085</S> that I am unloved,<S>8130</S> He has therefore given<S>5414</S> me this<S>2088</S> [son] also.<S>1571</S>" So she named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Simeon.<S>8095</S>


text:
<pb/>And she conceived<S>2029</S> again<S>5750</S> and bore<S>3205</S> a son<S>1121</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Now<S>6258</S> this<S>6471</S> time<S>6471</S> my husband<S>376</S> will become<S>3867</S> attached<S>3867</S> to me, because<S>3588</S> I have borne<S>3205</S> him three<S>7969</S> sons.<S>1121</S>" Therefore<S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> he was named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> Levi.<S>3878</S>


text:
<pb/>And she conceived<S>2029</S> again<S>5750</S> and bore<S>3205</S> a son<S>1121</S> and said,<S>559</S> "This<S>6471</S> time<S>6471</S> I will praise<S>3034</S> the Lord.<S>3068</S>" Therefore<S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> she named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Judah.<S>3063</S> Then she stopped<S>5975</S> bearing.<S>3205</S>


text:
Now when Rachel<S>7354</S> saw<S>7200</S> that she bore<S>3205</S> Jacob<S>3290</S> no<S>3808</S> children, she became<S>7065</S> jealous<S>7065</S> of her sister;<S>269</S> and she said<S>559</S> to Jacob,<S>3290</S> "Give<S>3051</S> me children,<S>1121</S> or else<S>518</S> <S>369</S> I die.<S>4191</S>"


text:
Then Jacob's anger<S>639</S> burned<S>2734</S> against Rachel,<S>7354</S> and he said,<S>559</S> "Am I in the place<S>8478</S> of God,<S>430</S> who<S>834</S> has withheld<S>4513</S> from you the fruit<S>6529</S> of the womb<S>990</S>?"


text:
And she said,<S>559</S> "Here<S>2009</S> is my maid<S>519</S> Bilhah,<S>1090</S> go<S>935</S> in to her, that she may bear<S>3205</S> on my knees,<S>1290</S> that through<S>4480</S> her I too<S>1571</S> may have<S>1129</S> children.<S>1129</S>"


text:
<pb/>So she gave<S>5414</S> him her maid<S>8198</S> Bilhah<S>1090</S> as a wife,<S>802</S> and Jacob<S>3290</S> went<S>935</S> in to her.


text:
Then Rachel<S>7354</S> said,<S>559</S> "God<S>430</S> has vindicated<S>1777</S> me, and has indeed<S>1571</S> heard<S>8085</S> my voice<S>6963</S> and has given<S>5414</S> me a son.<S>1121</S>" Therefore<S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> she named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Dan.<S>1835</S>


text:
<pb/>And Rachel's maid<S>8198</S> Bilhah<S>1090</S> conceived<S>2029</S> again<S>5750</S> and bore<S>3205</S> Jacob<S>3290</S> a second<S>8145</S> son.<S>1121</S>


text:
So Rachel<S>7354</S> said,<S>559</S> "With mighty<S>430</S> wrestlings<S>5319</S> I have wrestled<S>6617</S> with my sister,<S>269</S> [and] I have indeed<S>1571</S> prevailed.<S>3201</S>" And she named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Naphtali.<S>5321</S>


text:
<pb/>When Leah<S>3812</S> saw<S>7200</S> that she had stopped<S>5975</S> bearing,<S>3205</S> she took<S>3947</S> her maid<S>8198</S> Zilpah<S>2153</S> and gave<S>5414</S> her to Jacob<S>3290</S> as a wife.<S>802</S>


text:
Then Leah<S>3812</S> said,<S>559</S> "How fortunate!<S>1409</S>" So she named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Gad.<S>1410</S>


text:
<pb/>And Leah's maid<S>8198</S> Zilpah<S>2153</S> bore<S>3205</S> Jacob<S>3290</S> a second<S>8145</S> son.<S>1121</S>


text:
Then Leah<S>3812</S> said,<S>559</S> "Happy<S>837</S> am I! For women<S>1323</S> will call<S>7121</S> me happy.<S>833</S>" So she named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Asher.<S>836</S>


text:
<pb/>Now in the days<S>3117</S> of wheat<S>2406</S> harvest<S>7105</S> Reuben<S>7205</S> went<S>1980</S> and found<S>4672</S> mandrakes<S>1736</S> in the field,<S>7704</S> and brought<S>935</S> them to his mother<S>517</S> Leah.<S>3812</S> Then Rachel<S>7354</S> said<S>559</S> to Leah,<S>3812</S> "Please<S>4994</S> give<S>5414</S> me some<S>4480</S> of your son's mandrakes.<S>1736</S>"


text:
But she said<S>559</S> to her, "Is it a small<S>4592</S> matter<S>4592</S> for you to take<S>3947</S> my husband<S>376</S>? And would you take<S>3947</S> my son's mandrakes<S>1736</S> also<S>1571</S>?" So Rachel<S>7354</S> said,<S>559</S> "Therefore<S>3651</S> he may lie<S>7901</S> with you tonight<S>3915</S> in return<S>8478</S> for your son's mandrakes.<S>1736</S>"


text:
When Jacob<S>3290</S> came<S>935</S> in from the field<S>7704</S> in the evening,<S>6153</S> then Leah<S>3812</S> went<S>3318</S> out to meet<S>7122</S> him and said,<S>559</S> "You must come<S>935</S> in to me, for I have surely<S>7936</S> hired<S>7936</S> you with my son's mandrakes.<S>1736</S>" So he lay<S>7901</S> with her that night.<S>3915</S>


text:
And God<S>430</S> gave<S>8085</S> heed<S>8085</S> to Leah,<S>3812</S> and she conceived<S>2029</S> and bore<S>3205</S> Jacob<S>3290</S> a fifth<S>2549</S> son.<S>1121</S>


text:
Then Leah<S>3812</S> said,<S>559</S> "God<S>430</S> has given<S>5414</S> me my wages,<S>7939</S> because<S>834</S> I gave<S>5414</S> my maid<S>8198</S> to my husband.<S>376</S>" So she named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Issachar.<S>3485</S>


text:
<pb/>And Leah<S>3812</S> conceived<S>2029</S> again<S>5750</S> and bore<S>3205</S> a sixth<S>8345</S> son<S>1121</S> to Jacob.<S>3290</S>


text:
Then Leah<S>3812</S> said,<S>559</S> "God<S>430</S> has endowed<S>2064</S> me with a good<S>2896</S> gift;<S>2065</S> now<S>6471</S> my husband<S>376</S> will dwell<S>2082</S> with me, because<S>3588</S> I have borne<S>3205</S> him six<S>8337</S> sons.<S>1121</S>" So she named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Zebulun.<S>2074</S>


text:
<pb/>And afterward<S>310</S> she bore<S>3205</S> a daughter<S>1323</S> and named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> her Dinah.<S>1783</S>


text:
<pb/>Then God<S>430</S> remembered<S>2142</S> Rachel,<S>7354</S> and God<S>430</S> gave<S>8085</S> heed<S>8085</S> to her and opened<S>6605</S> her womb.<S>7358</S>


text:
So she conceived<S>2029</S> and bore<S>3205</S> a son<S>1121</S> and said,<S>559</S> "God<S>430</S> has taken<S>622</S> away<S>622</S> my reproach.<S>2781</S>"

And she named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Joseph,<S>3130</S> saying,<S>559</S> "May the Lord<S>3068</S> give<S>3254</S> me another<S>312</S> son.<S>1121</S>"


text:
Now it came<S>1961</S> about when<S>9201</S> Rachel<S>7354</S> had borne<S>3205</S> Joseph,<S>3130</S> that Jacob<S>3290</S> said<S>559</S> to Laban,<S>3837</S> "Send<S>7971</S> me away,<S>7971</S> that I may go<S>1980</S> to my own place<S>4725</S> and to my own country.<S>776</S>


text:
"Give<S>5414</S> [me] my wives<S>802</S> and my children<S>3206</S> for whom<S>834</S> I have served<S>5647</S> you, and let me depart;<S>1980</S> for you yourself<S>859</S> know<S>3045</S> my service<S>5656</S> which<S>834</S> I have rendered<S>5647</S> you."


text:
<pb/>But Laban<S>3837</S> said<S>559</S> to him, "If<S>518</S> now<S>4994</S> it pleases<S>4672</S> <S>2580</S> you, [stay with me;] I have divined<S>5172</S> that the Lord<S>3068</S> has blessed<S>1288</S> me on your account.<S>1558</S>"


text:
And he continued,<S>559</S> "Name<S>9344</S> me your wages,<S>7939</S> and I will give<S>5414</S> it."


text:
<pb/>But he said<S>559</S> to him, "You yourself<S>859</S> know<S>3045</S> how<S>854</S> <S>834</S> I have served<S>5647</S> you and how<S>854</S> <S>834</S> your cattle<S>4735</S> have fared<S>1961</S> with me.


text:
"For you had<S>1961</S> little<S>4592</S> before<S>6440</S> I came, and it has increased<S>6555</S> to a multitude;<S>7230</S> and the Lord<S>3068</S> has blessed<S>1288</S> you wherever I turned.<S>7272</S> But now,<S>6258</S> when<S>4970</S> shall I provide<S>6213</S> for my own household<S>1004</S> also<S>1571</S>?"


text:
<pb/>So he said,<S>559</S> "What<S>4100</S> shall I give<S>5414</S> you?" And Jacob<S>3290</S> said,<S>559</S> "You shall not give<S>5414</S> me anything.<S>3972</S> If<S>518</S> you will do<S>6213</S> this<S>2088</S> [one] thing<S>1697</S> for me, I will again<S>7725</S> pasture<S>7462</S> [and] keep<S>8104</S> your flock: <S>6629</S>


text:
let me pass<S>5674</S> through your entire<S>3605</S> flock<S>6629</S> today,<S>3117</S> removing<S>5493</S> from there<S>8033</S> every<S>3605</S> speckled<S>5348</S> and spotted<S>2921</S> sheep,<S>7716</S> and every<S>3605</S> black<S>2345</S> one<S>7716</S> among the lambs,<S>3775</S> and the spotted<S>2921</S> and speckled<S>5348</S> among the goats;<S>5795</S> and [such] shall be my wages.<S>7939</S>


text:
"So my honesty<S>6666</S> will answer<S>6030</S> for me later,<S>4279</S> <S>3117</S> when<S>3588</S> you come<S>935</S> concerning<S>5921</S> my wages.<S>7939</S> Every<S>3605</S> one<S>3605</S> that is not speckled<S>5348</S> and spotted<S>2921</S> among the goats<S>5795</S> and black<S>2345</S> among the lambs,<S>3775</S> [if found] with me, will be considered stolen.<S>1589</S>"


text:
And Laban<S>3837</S> said,<S>559</S> "Good,<S>2005</S> let it be according to your word.<S>1697</S>"


text:
<pb/>So he removed<S>5493</S> on that day<S>3117</S> the striped<S>6124</S> and spotted<S>2921</S> male<S>8495</S> goats<S>8495</S> and all<S>3605</S> the speckled<S>5348</S> and spotted<S>2921</S> female<S>5795</S> goats,<S>5795</S> every<S>3605</S> one<S>3605</S> with white<S>3836</S> in it, and all<S>3605</S> the black<S>2345</S> ones<S>2345</S> among the sheep,<S>3775</S> and gave<S>5414</S> them into the care<S>3027</S> of his sons.<S>1121</S>


text:
And he put<S>7760</S> [a distance of] three<S>7969</S> days' journey<S>1870</S> between<S>996</S> himself and Jacob,<S>3290</S> and Jacob<S>3290</S> fed<S>7462</S> the rest<S>3498</S> of Laban's flocks.<S>6629</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Jacob<S>3290</S> took<S>3947</S> fresh<S>3892</S> rods<S>4731</S> of poplar<S>3839</S> and almond<S>3869</S> and plane<S>6196</S> trees,<S>6196</S> and peeled<S>6478</S> white<S>3836</S> stripes<S>6479</S> in them, exposing<S>4286</S> the white<S>3836</S> which<S>834</S> [was] in the rods.<S>4731</S>


text:
And he set<S>3322</S> the rods<S>4731</S> which<S>834</S> he had peeled<S>6478</S> in front<S>5227</S> of the flocks<S>6629</S> in the gutters,<S>7298</S> [even] in the watering<S>4325</S> troughs,<S>8268</S> where<S>834</S> the flocks<S>6629</S> came<S>935</S> to drink;<S>8354</S> and they mated<S>2552</S> when they came<S>935</S> to drink.<S>8354</S>


text:
So the flocks<S>6629</S> mated<S>2552</S> by the rods,<S>4731</S> and the flocks<S>6629</S> brought<S>3205</S> forth<S>3205</S> striped,<S>6124</S> speckled,<S>5348</S> and spotted.<S>2921</S>


text:
And Jacob<S>3290</S> separated<S>6504</S> the lambs,<S>3775</S> and made<S>5414</S> the flocks<S>6629</S> face<S>6440</S> toward<S>413</S> the striped<S>6124</S> and all<S>3605</S> the black<S>2345</S> in the flock<S>6629</S> of Laban;<S>3837</S> and he put<S>7896</S> his own herds<S>5739</S> apart,<S>905</S> and did not put<S>7896</S> them with Laban's flock.<S>6629</S>


text:
Moreover, it came<S>1961</S> about whenever<S>3605</S> the stronger<S>7194</S> of the flock<S>6629</S> were mating,<S>3179</S> that Jacob<S>3290</S> would place<S>7760</S> the rods<S>4731</S> in the sight<S>5869</S> of the flock<S>6629</S> in the gutters,<S>7298</S> so that they might mate<S>3179</S> by the rods;<S>4731</S>


text:
but when the flock<S>6629</S> was feeble,<S>5848</S> he did not put<S>7760</S> [them] in; so the feebler<S>5848</S> were Laban's and the stronger<S>7194</S> Jacob's.


text:
So the man<S>376</S> became<S>6555</S> exceedingly<S>3966</S> prosperous,<S>6555</S> and had<S>1961</S> large<S>7227</S> flocks<S>6629</S> and female<S>8198</S> and male<S>5650</S> servants<S>5650</S> <S>8198</S> and camels<S>1581</S> and donkeys.<S>2543</S>


text:
<pb/>Now Jacob heard<S>8085</S> the words<S>1697</S> of Laban's sons,<S>1121</S> saying,<S>559</S> "Jacob<S>3290</S> has taken<S>3947</S> away all<S>3605</S> that was our father's, and from what<S>1</S> belonged to our father he has made<S>834</S> all<S>6213</S> this<S>3605</S> wealth.<S>2088</S>"


text:
And Jacob<S>3290</S> saw<S>7200</S> the attitude<S>6440</S> of Laban,<S>3837</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> it was not [friendly] toward<S>5973</S> him as formerly.<S>8543</S>


text:
<pb/>Then the Lord<S>3068</S> said<S>559</S> to Jacob,<S>3290</S> "Return<S>7725</S> to the land<S>776</S> of your fathers and to your relatives,<S>1</S> and I will be with you."


text:
So Jacob<S>3290</S> sent<S>7971</S> and called<S>7121</S> Rachel<S>7354</S> and Leah<S>3812</S> to his flock<S>6629</S> in the field,<S>7704</S>


text:
and said<S>559</S> to them, "I see<S>7200</S> your father's attitude,<S>1</S> that it is not [friendly] toward<S>6440</S> me as formerly,<S>413</S> but the God<S>8543</S> of my father has been<S>430</S> with me.


text:
"And you know<S>3045</S> that I have served<S>5647</S> your father with all<S>1</S> my strength.<S>3605</S>


text:
"Yet your father has cheated<S>1</S> me and changed<S>8524</S> my wages<S>2498</S> ten<S>4909</S> times;<S>6235</S> however, God<S>4489</S> did not allow<S>430</S> him to hurt<S>5414</S> me.


text:
"If<S>518</S> he spoke<S>559</S> thus,<S>3541</S> 'The speckled<S>5348</S> shall be your wages,<S>7939</S>' then all<S>3605</S> the flock<S>6629</S> brought<S>3205</S> forth<S>3205</S> speckled;<S>5348</S> and if<S>518</S> he spoke<S>559</S> thus,<S>3541</S> 'The striped<S>6124</S> shall be your wages,<S>7939</S>' then all<S>3605</S> the flock<S>6629</S> brought<S>3205</S> forth<S>3205</S> striped.<S>6124</S>


text:
"Thus God<S>430</S> has taken<S>5337</S> away<S>5337</S> your father's livestock<S>4735</S> and given<S>5414</S> [them] to me.


text:
<pb/>"And it came<S>1961</S> about at the time<S>6256</S> when the flock<S>6629</S> were mating<S>3179</S> that I lifted<S>5375</S> up my eyes<S>5869</S> and saw<S>7200</S> in a dream,<S>2472</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> the male<S>6260</S> goats<S>6260</S> which were mating<S>5927</S> [were] striped,<S>6124</S> speckled,<S>5348</S> and mottled.<S>1261</S>


text:
"Then the angel<S>4397</S> of God<S>430</S> said<S>559</S> to me in the dream,<S>2472</S> 'Jacob,<S>3290</S>' and I said,<S>559</S> 'Here<S>2009</S> I am.'


text:
"And he said,<S>559</S> 'Lift<S>5375</S> up, now,<S>4994</S> your eyes<S>5869</S> and see<S>7200</S> [that] all<S>3605</S> the male<S>6260</S> goats<S>6260</S> which are mating<S>5927</S> are striped,<S>6124</S> speckled,<S>5348</S> and mottled;<S>1261</S> for I have seen<S>7200</S> all<S>3605</S> that Laban<S>3837</S> has been doing<S>6213</S> to you.


text:
'I am the God<S>410</S> [of] Bethel,<S>1008</S> where<S>834</S> <S>8033</S> you anointed<S>4886</S> a pillar,<S>4676</S> where<S>834</S> <S>8033</S> you made<S>5087</S> a vow<S>5088</S> to Me; now<S>6258</S> arise,<S>6965</S> leave<S>3318</S> this<S>2088</S> land,<S>776</S> and return<S>7725</S> to the land<S>776</S> of your birth.<S>4138</S>' "


text:
<pb/>And Rachel<S>7354</S> and Leah<S>3812</S> answered<S>6030</S> and said<S>559</S> to him, "Do we still<S>5750</S> have any portion<S>2506</S> or inheritance<S>5159</S> in our father's house<S>1004</S>?


text:
"Are we not reckoned<S>2803</S> by him as foreigners<S>5237</S>? For he has sold<S>4376</S> us, and has also<S>1571</S> entirely<S>398</S> consumed<S>398</S> our purchase<S>3701</S> price.<S>3701</S>


text:
"Surely<S>3588</S> all<S>3605</S> the wealth<S>6239</S> which<S>834</S> God<S>430</S> has taken<S>5337</S> away<S>5337</S> from our father belongs to us and our children;<S>1</S> now<S>1121</S> then, do<S>6258</S> whatever<S>6213</S> <S>3605</S> God<S>834</S> has said<S>430</S> to you."


text:
<pb/>Then Jacob<S>3290</S> arose<S>6965</S> and put<S>5375</S> his children<S>1121</S> and his wives<S>802</S> upon camels;<S>1581</S>


text:
and he drove<S>5090</S> away<S>5090</S> all<S>3605</S> his livestock<S>4735</S> and all<S>3605</S> his property<S>7399</S> which<S>834</S> he had gathered,<S>7408</S> his acquired<S>7075</S> livestock<S>4735</S> which<S>834</S> he had gathered<S>7408</S> in Paddan-aram, to go<S>935</S> to the land<S>776</S> of Canaan<S>3667</S> to his father Isaac.<S>1</S>


text:
<pb/>When Laban<S>3837</S> had gone<S>1980</S> to shear<S>1494</S> his flock,<S>6629</S> then Rachel<S>7354</S> stole<S>1589</S> the household<S>8655</S> idols<S>8655</S> that were her father's.


text:
And Jacob<S>3290</S> deceived<S>1589</S> Laban<S>3837</S> the Aramean,<S>761</S> by not telling<S>5046</S> him that he was fleeing.<S>1272</S>


text:
So he fled<S>1272</S> with all<S>3605</S> that he had; and he arose<S>6965</S> and crossed<S>5674</S> the [Euphrates] River,<S>5104</S> and set<S>7760</S> his face<S>6440</S> toward the hill<S>2022</S> country<S>2022</S> of Gilead.<S>1568</S>


text:
<pb/>When it was told<S>5046</S> Laban<S>3837</S> on the third<S>7992</S> day<S>3117</S> that Jacob<S>3290</S> had fled,<S>1272</S>


text:
then he took<S>3947</S> his kinsmen<S>251</S> with him, and pursued<S>7291</S> him [a distance of] seven<S>7651</S> days' journey;<S>1870</S> and he overtook<S>1692</S> him in the hill<S>2022</S> country<S>2022</S> of Gilead.<S>1568</S>


text:
And God<S>430</S> came<S>935</S> to Laban<S>3837</S> the Aramean<S>761</S> in a dream<S>2472</S> of the night,<S>3915</S> and said<S>559</S> to him, "Be careful<S>8104</S> that you do not speak<S>1696</S> to Jacob<S>3290</S> either<S>4480</S> good<S>2896</S> or<S>5704</S> bad.<S>7451</S>"


text:
<pb/>And Laban<S>3837</S> caught<S>5381</S> up with Jacob.<S>3290</S> Now Jacob<S>3290</S> had pitched<S>8628</S> his tent<S>168</S> in the hill<S>2022</S> country,<S>2022</S> and Laban<S>3837</S> with his kinsmen<S>251</S> camped<S>8628</S> in the hill<S>2022</S> country<S>2022</S> of Gilead.<S>1568</S>


text:
Then Laban<S>3837</S> said<S>559</S> to Jacob,<S>3290</S> "What<S>4100</S> have you done<S>6213</S> by deceiving<S>1589</S> me and carrying<S>5090</S> away<S>5090</S> my daughters<S>1323</S> like captives<S>7617</S> of the sword<S>2719</S>?


text:
"Why<S>4100</S> did you flee<S>1272</S> secretly<S>2244</S> and deceive<S>1589</S> me, and did not tell<S>5046</S> me, so that I might have sent<S>7971</S> you away<S>7971</S> with joy<S>8057</S> and with songs,<S>7892</S> with timbrel<S>8596</S> and with lyre;<S>3658</S>


text:
and did not allow<S>5203</S> me to kiss<S>5401</S> my sons<S>1121</S> and my daughters<S>1323</S>? Now<S>6258</S> you have done<S>5528</S> <S>6213</S> foolishly.<S>5528</S>


text:
"It is in my power<S>3027</S> to do<S>6213</S> you harm,<S>9563</S> but the God<S>430</S> of your father spoke<S>1</S> to me last<S>559</S> night,<S>570</S> saying,<S>570</S> 'Be careful<S>559</S> not to speak<S>8104</S> either<S>1696</S> good<S>4480</S> or<S>2896</S> bad<S>5704</S> to Jacob.<S>7451</S>'


text:
"And now<S>6258</S> you have indeed<S>1980</S> gone<S>1980</S> away because<S>3588</S> you longed<S>3700</S> greatly<S>3700</S> for your father's house;<S>1004</S> [but] why<S>4100</S> did you steal<S>1589</S> my gods<S>430</S>?"


text:
<pb/>Then Jacob<S>3290</S> answered<S>6030</S> and said<S>559</S> to Laban,<S>3837</S> "Because<S>3588</S> I was afraid,<S>3372</S> for I said,<S>559</S> 'Lest<S>6435</S> you would take<S>1497</S> your daughters<S>1323</S> from me by force.<S>1497</S>'


text:
"The one with whom<S>834</S> you find<S>4672</S> your gods<S>430</S> shall not live;<S>2421</S> in the presence<S>5048</S> of our kinsmen<S>251</S> point<S>5234</S> out what<S>4100</S> is yours among<S>5973</S> my belongings<S>5973</S> and take<S>3947</S> [it] for yourself." For Jacob<S>3290</S> did not know<S>3045</S> that Rachel<S>7354</S> had stolen<S>1589</S> them.


text:
<pb/>So Laban<S>3837</S> went<S>935</S> into Jacob's tent,<S>168</S> and into Leah's tent,<S>168</S> and into the tent<S>168</S> of the two<S>8147</S> maids,<S>519</S> but he did not find<S>4672</S> [them.] Then he went<S>3318</S> out of Leah's tent<S>168</S> and entered<S>935</S> Rachel's tent.<S>168</S>


text:
Now Rachel<S>7354</S> had taken<S>3947</S> the household<S>8655</S> idols<S>8655</S> and put<S>7760</S> them in the camel's saddle,<S>9220</S> and she sat<S>3427</S> on them. And Laban<S>3837</S> felt<S>4959</S> through<S>4959</S> all<S>3605</S> the tent,<S>168</S> but did not find<S>4672</S> [them.]


text:
And she said<S>559</S> to her father, "Let not my lord<S>1</S> be angry<S>113</S> that I cannot<S>2734</S> <S>3201</S> rise<S>3808</S> before<S>6965</S> <S>4480</S> you, for the manner<S>6440</S> of women<S>1870</S> is upon me." So he searched,<S>802</S> but did not find<S>2664</S> the household<S>4672</S> idols.<S>8655</S>

<pb/>Then Jacob<S>3290</S> became<S>2734</S> angry<S>2734</S> and contended<S>7378</S> with Laban;<S>3837</S> and Jacob<S>3290</S> answered<S>6030</S> and said<S>559</S> to Laban,<S>3837</S> "What<S>4100</S> is my transgression<S>6588</S>? What<S>4100</S> is my sin,<S>9128</S> that you have hotly<S>1814</S> pursued<S>1814</S> me?

"Though<S>3588</S> you have felt<S>4959</S> through<S>4959</S> all<S>3605</S> my goods,<S>3627</S> what<S>4100</S> have you found<S>4672</S> of all<S>3605</S> your household<S>1004</S> goods<S>3627</S>? Set<S>7760</S> [it] here<S>3541</S> before<S>5048</S> my kinsmen<S>251</S> and your kinsmen,<S>251</S> that they may decide<S>3198</S> between<S>996</S> us two.<S>8147</S>

"[Thus] I was: by day<S>3117</S> the heat<S>2721</S> consumed<S>398</S> me, and the frost<S>7140</S> by night,<S>3915</S> and my sleep<S>8142</S> fled<S>5074</S> from my eyes.<S>5869</S>

"These<S>2088</S> twenty<S>6242</S> years<S>8141</S> I have been in your house;<S>1004</S> I served<S>5647</S> you fourteen<S>702</S> <S>6240</S> years<S>8141</S> for your two<S>8147</S> daughters,<S>1323</S> and six<S>8337</S> years<S>8141</S> for your flock,<S>6629</S> and you changed<S>2498</S> my wages<S>4909</S> ten<S>6235</S> times.<S>4489</S>

"If<S>3884</S> the God<S>430</S> of my father, the God<S>1</S> of Abraham,<S>430</S> and the fear<S>85</S> of Isaac,<S>6343</S> had<S>3327</S> not been<S>1961</S> for me, surely<S>1961</S> now<S>3588</S> you would have sent<S>6258</S> me away<S>7971</S> empty-handed. God<S>7971</S> has seen<S>430</S> my affliction<S>7200</S> and the toil<S>6040</S> of my hands,<S>3018</S> so He rendered<S>3709</S> judgment<S>3198</S> last<S>3198</S> night.<S>570</S>"


text:
<pb/>Then Laban<S>3837</S> answered<S>6030</S> and said<S>559</S> to Jacob,<S>3290</S> "The daughters<S>1323</S> are my daughters,<S>1323</S> and the children<S>1121</S> are my children,<S>1121</S> and the flocks<S>6629</S> are my flocks,<S>6629</S> and all<S>3605</S> that you see<S>7200</S> is mine.

"So now<S>6258</S> come,<S>1980</S> let us make<S>3772</S> a covenant,<S>1285</S> you and I, and let it be a witness<S>5707</S> between<S>996</S> you and me."


text:
<pb/>Then Jacob<S>3290</S> took<S>3947</S> a stone<S>68</S> and set<S>7311</S> it up [as] a pillar.<S>4676</S>


text:
And Jacob<S>3290</S> said<S>559</S> to his kinsmen,<S>251</S> "Gather<S>3950</S> stones.<S>68</S>" So they took<S>3947</S> stones<S>68</S> and made<S>6213</S> a heap,<S>1530</S> and they ate<S>398</S> there<S>8033</S> by the heap.<S>1530</S>


text:
Now Laban<S>3837</S> called<S>7121</S> it Jegar-sahadutha, but Jacob<S>3290</S> called<S>7121</S> it Galeed.<S>1567</S>


text:
<pb/>And Laban<S>3837</S> said,<S>559</S> "This<S>2088</S> heap<S>1530</S> is a witness<S>5707</S> between<S>996</S> you and me this day.<S>3117</S>" Therefore<S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> it was named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> Galeed;<S>1567</S>

and Mizpah,<S>4709</S> for he said,<S>559</S> "May the Lord<S>3068</S> watch<S>6822</S> between<S>996</S> you and me when<S>3588</S> we are absent<S>5641</S> one<S>376</S> from the other.<S>7453</S>

"If<S>518</S> you mistreat<S>6031</S> my daughters,<S>1323</S> or if<S>518</S> you take<S>3947</S> wives<S>802</S> besides<S>5921</S> my daughters,<S>1323</S> [although] no<S>369</S> man<S>376</S> is with us, see,<S>7200</S> God<S>430</S> is witness<S>5707</S> between<S>996</S> you and me."

<pb/>And Laban<S>3837</S> said<S>559</S> to Jacob,<S>3290</S> "Behold<S>2009</S> this<S>2088</S> heap<S>1530</S> and behold<S>2009</S> the pillar<S>4676</S> which<S>834</S> I have set<S>3384</S> between<S>996</S> you and me.


text:
"This<S>2088</S> heap<S>1530</S> is a witness,<S>5707</S> and the pillar<S>4676</S> is a witness,<S>5713</S> that I will not pass<S>5674</S> by this<S>2088</S> heap<S>1530</S> to you for harm, and you will not pass<S>5674</S> by this<S>2088</S> heap<S>1530</S> and this<S>2088</S> pillar<S>4676</S> to me, for harm.<S>9567</S>

"The God<S>430</S> of Abraham<S>85</S> and the God<S>430</S> of Nahor,<S>5152</S> the God<S>430</S> of their father, judge<S>1</S> between<S>8199</S> us." So Jacob<S>996</S> swore<S>3290</S> by the fear<S>7650</S> of his father Isaac.<S>6343</S>


text:
Then Jacob<S>3290</S> offered<S>2076</S> a sacrifice<S>2077</S> on the mountain,<S>2022</S> and called<S>7121</S> his kinsmen<S>251</S> to the meal<S>398</S>;<S>3899</S> and they ate<S>398</S> the meal<S>3899</S> and spent<S>3885</S> the night<S>3885</S> on the mountain.<S>2022</S>


text:
<pb/>And early<S>7925</S> in the morning<S>1242</S> Laban<S>3837</S> arose,<S>7925</S> and kissed<S>5401</S> his sons<S>1121</S> and his daughters<S>1323</S> and blessed<S>1288</S> them. Then Laban<S>3837</S> departed<S>1980</S> and returned<S>7725</S> to his place.<S>4725</S>


text:
<pb/>Now as Jacob<S>3290</S> went<S>1980</S> on his way,<S>1870</S> the angels<S>4397</S> of God<S>430</S> met<S>6293</S> him.


text:
And Jacob<S>3290</S> said<S>559</S> when<S>9201</S> he saw<S>7200</S> them, "This<S>2088</S> is God's camp.<S>4264</S>" So he named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> that place<S>4725</S> Mahanaim.<S>4266</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Jacob<S>3290</S> sent<S>7971</S> messengers<S>4397</S> before<S>6440</S> him to his brother<S>251</S> Esau<S>6215</S> in the land<S>776</S> of Seir,<S>8165</S> the country<S>7704</S> of Edom.<S>9000</S>


text:
He also commanded<S>6680</S> them saying,<S>559</S> "Thus<S>3541</S> you shall say<S>559</S> to my lord<S>113</S> Esau:<S>6215</S> 'Thus<S>3541</S> says<S>559</S> your servant<S>5650</S> Jacob,<S>3290</S> "I have sojourned<S>1481</S> with Laban,<S>3837</S> and stayed<S>309</S> until<S>5704</S> now;<S>6258</S>

and I have<S>1961</S> oxen<S>7794</S> and donkeys<S>2543</S> [and] flocks<S>6629</S> and male<S>5650</S> and female<S>8198</S> servants<S>5650</S>;<S>8198</S> and I have sent<S>7971</S> to tell<S>5046</S> my lord,<S>113</S> that I may find<S>4672</S> favor<S>2580</S> in your sight.<S>5869</S>"' "


text:
<pb/>And the messengers<S>4397</S> returned<S>7725</S> to Jacob,<S>3290</S> saying,<S>559</S> "We came<S>935</S> to your brother<S>251</S> Esau,<S>6215</S> and furthermore<S>1571</S> he is coming<S>1980</S> to meet<S>7122</S> you, and four<S>702</S> hundred<S>3967</S> men<S>376</S> are with him."


text:
Then Jacob<S>3290</S> was greatly<S>3966</S> afraid<S>3372</S> and distressed;<S>9503</S> and he divided<S>2673</S> the people<S>5971</S> who<S>834</S> were with him, and the flocks<S>6629</S> and the herds<S>1241</S> and the camels,<S>1581</S> into two<S>8147</S> companies;<S>4264</S>


text:
for he said,<S>559</S> "If<S>518</S> Esau<S>6215</S> comes<S>935</S> to the one<S>259</S> company<S>4264</S> and attacks<S>5221</S> it, then the company<S>4264</S> which is left<S>7604</S> will escape.<S>6413</S>"


text:
<pb/>And Jacob<S>3290</S> said,<S>559</S> "O God<S>430</S> of my father Abraham<S>1</S> and God<S>85</S> of my father Isaac,<S>430</S> O Lord,<S>1</S> who didst say<S>3327</S> to me, 'Return<S>3068</S> to your country<S>559</S> and to your relatives,<S>7725</S> and I will prosper<S>776</S> you,'


text:
I am unworthy<S>6994</S> of all<S>3605</S> the lovingkindness<S>2617</S> and of all<S>3605</S> the faithfulness<S>571</S> which<S>834</S> Thou hast shown<S>6213</S> to Thy servant;<S>5650</S> for with my staff<S>4731</S> [only] I crossed<S>5674</S> this<S>2088</S> Jordan,<S>3383</S> and now<S>6258</S> I have become<S>1961</S> two<S>8147</S> companies.<S>4264</S>


text:
"Deliver<S>5337</S> me, I pray,<S>4994</S> from the hand<S>3027</S> of my brother,<S>251</S> from the hand<S>3027</S> of Esau;<S>6215</S> for I fear<S>3372</S> him, lest<S>6435</S> he come<S>935</S> and attack<S>5221</S> me, the mothers<S>517</S> with the children.<S>1121</S>


text:
"For Thou didst say,<S>559</S> 'I will surely<S>3190</S> prosper<S>3190</S> you, and make<S>7760</S> your descendants<S>2233</S> as the sand<S>2344</S> of the sea,<S>3220</S> which<S>834</S> cannot<S>3808</S> be numbered<S>5608</S> for multitude.<S>7230</S>'"


text:
<pb/>So he spent<S>3885</S> the night<S>3915</S> there.<S>8033</S> Then he selected<S>3947</S> from what he had<S>935</S> with him a present<S>4503</S> for his brother<S>251</S> Esau: <S>6215</S>


text:
two hundred<S>3967</S> female<S>5795</S> goats<S>5795</S> and twenty<S>6242</S> male<S>8495</S> goats,<S>8495</S> two hundred<S>3967</S> ewes<S>7353</S> and twenty<S>6242</S> rams,<S>352</S>


text:
thirty<S>7970</S> milking<S>3243</S> camels<S>1581</S> and their colts,<S>1121</S> forty<S>705</S> cows<S>6510</S> and ten<S>6235</S> bulls,<S>6499</S> twenty<S>6242</S> female<S>860</S> donkeys<S>860</S> and ten<S>6235</S> male<S>5895</S> donkeys.<S>5895</S>


text:
And he delivered<S>5414</S> [them] into the hand<S>3027</S> of his servants,<S>5650</S> every<S>5739</S> drove<S>5739</S> by itself,<S>905</S> and said<S>559</S> to his servants,<S>5650</S> "Pass<S>5674</S> on before<S>6440</S> me, and put<S>7760</S> a space<S>7305</S> between<S>996</S> droves.<S>5739</S>"


text:
And he commanded<S>6680</S> the one<S>7223</S> in front,<S>7223</S> saying,<S>559</S> "When<S>3588</S> my brother<S>251</S> Esau<S>6215</S> meets<S>6298</S> you and asks<S>7592</S> you, saying,<S>559</S> 'To whom<S>4310</S> do you belong, and where<S>575</S> are you going,<S>1980</S> and to whom<S>4310</S> do these<S>428</S> [animals] in front<S>6440</S> of you belong?'


text:
then you shall say,<S>559</S> '[These] belong to your servant<S>5650</S> Jacob;<S>3290</S> it is a present<S>4503</S> sent<S>7971</S> to my lord<S>113</S> Esau.<S>6215</S> And behold,<S>2009</S> he also<S>1571</S> is behind<S>310</S> us.' "


text:
<pb/>Then he commanded<S>6680</S> also<S>1571</S> the second<S>8145</S> and the third,<S>7992</S> and all<S>3605</S> those who followed<S>1980</S> <S>310</S> the droves,<S>5739</S> saying,<S>559</S> "After this<S>2088</S> manner<S>1697</S> you shall speak<S>1696</S> to Esau<S>6215</S> when you find<S>4672</S> him;


text:
and you shall say,<S>559</S> 'Behold,<S>2009</S> your servant<S>5650</S> Jacob<S>3290</S> also<S>1571</S> is behind<S>310</S> us.' "For he said,<S>559</S> "I will appease<S>3722</S> <S>6440</S> him with the present<S>4503</S> that goes<S>1980</S> before<S>6440</S> me. Then afterward<S>310</S> <S>3651</S> I will see<S>7200</S> his face;<S>6440</S> perhaps<S>194</S> he will accept<S>5375</S> <S>6440</S> me. "


text:
So the present<S>4503</S> passed<S>5674</S> on before<S>5921</S> <S>6440</S> him, while he himself<S>1931</S> spent<S>3885</S> that night<S>3915</S> in the camp.<S>4264</S>


text:
<pb/>Now he arose<S>6965</S> that same<S>1931</S> night<S>3915</S> and took<S>3947</S> his two<S>8147</S> wives<S>802</S> and his two<S>8147</S> maids<S>8198</S> and his eleven<S>259</S> <S>6240</S> children,<S>3206</S> and crossed<S>5674</S> the ford<S>4569</S> of the Jabbok.<S>2999</S>


text:
And he took<S>3947</S> them and sent<S>5674</S> them across<S>5674</S> the stream.<S>5158</S> And he sent<S>5674</S> across<S>5674</S> whatever<S>834</S> he had.


text:
Then Jacob<S>3290</S> was left<S>3498</S> alone,<S>905</S> and a man<S>376</S> wrestled<S>79</S> with him until<S>5704</S> daybreak.<S>7837</S>


text:
And when he saw<S>7200</S> that he had not prevailed<S>3201</S> against him, he touched<S>5060</S> the socket<S>3709</S> of his thigh;<S>3409</S> so the socket<S>3709</S> of Jacob's thigh<S>3409</S> was dislocated<S>3363</S> while he wrestled<S>79</S> with him.


text:
<pb/>Then he said,<S>559</S> "Let<S>7971</S> me go,<S>7971</S> for the dawn<S>7837</S> is breaking.<S>5927</S>" But he said,<S>559</S> "I will not let<S>7971</S> you go<S>7971</S> unless<S>3588</S> <S>518</S> you bless<S>1288</S> me."


text:
So he said<S>559</S> to him, "What<S>4100</S> is your name<S>8034</S>?" And he said,<S>559</S> "Jacob.<S>3290</S>"


text:
And he said,<S>559</S> "Your name<S>8034</S> shall no<S>3808</S> longer<S>5750</S> be Jacob,<S>3290</S> but Israel;<S>3478</S> for you have striven<S>8280</S> with God<S>430</S> and with men<S>376</S> and have prevailed.<S>3201</S>"


text:
<pb/>Then Jacob<S>3290</S> asked<S>7592</S> him and said,<S>559</S> "Please<S>4994</S> tell<S>5046</S> me your name.<S>8034</S>" But he said,<S>559</S> "Why<S>4100</S> is it that you ask<S>7592</S> my name<S>8034</S>?" And he blessed<S>1288</S> him there.<S>8033</S>


text:
So Jacob<S>3290</S> named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> the place<S>4725</S> Peniel,<S>6439</S> for [he said,] "I have seen<S>7200</S> God<S>430</S> face<S>6440</S> to face,<S>6440</S> yet my life<S>5315</S> has been preserved.<S>5337</S>"


text:
<pb/>Now the sun<S>8121</S> rose<S>2224</S> upon him just<S>9201</S> as he crossed<S>5674</S> over<S>5674</S> Penuel,<S>6439</S> and he was limping<S>6760</S> on his thigh.<S>3409</S>


text:
Therefore,<S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> to this<S>2088</S> day<S>3117</S> the sons<S>1121</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> do not eat<S>398</S> the sinew<S>1517</S> of the hip<S>5384</S> which<S>834</S> is on the socket<S>3709</S> of the thigh,<S>3409</S> because<S>3588</S> he touched<S>5060</S> the socket<S>3709</S> of Jacob's thigh<S>3409</S> in the sinew<S>1517</S> of the hip.<S>5384</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Jacob<S>3290</S> lifted<S>5375</S> his eyes<S>5869</S> and looked,<S>7200</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> Esau<S>6215</S> was coming,<S>935</S> and four<S>702</S> hundred<S>3967</S> men<S>376</S> with him. So he divided<S>2673</S> the children<S>3206</S> among<S>5921</S> Leah<S>3812</S> and Rachel<S>7354</S> and the two<S>8147</S> maids.<S>8198</S>

And he put<S>7760</S> the maids<S>8198</S> and their children<S>3206</S> in front,<S>7223</S> and Leah<S>3812</S> and her children<S>3206</S> next,<S>314</S> and Rachel<S>7354</S> and Joseph<S>3130</S> last.<S>314</S>


text:
But he himself<S>1931</S> passed<S>5674</S> on ahead<S>6440</S> of them and bowed<S>7812</S> down<S>7812</S> to the ground<S>776</S> seven<S>7651</S> times,<S>6471</S> until<S>5704</S> he came<S>5066</S> near<S>5066</S> to his brother.<S>251</S>


text:
Then Esau<S>6215</S> ran<S>7323</S> to meet<S>7122</S> him and embraced<S>2263</S> him, and fell<S>5307</S> on his neck<S>6677</S> and kissed<S>5401</S> him, and they wept.<S>1058</S>


text:
And he lifted<S>5375</S> his eyes<S>5869</S> and saw<S>7200</S> the women<S>802</S> and the children,<S>3206</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Who<S>4310</S> are these<S>428</S> with you?" So he said,<S>559</S> "The children<S>3206</S> whom<S>834</S> God<S>430</S> has graciously<S>2603</S> given<S>2603</S> your servant.<S>5650</S>"


text:
Then the maids<S>8198</S> came<S>5066</S> near<S>5066</S> with their children,<S>3206</S> and they bowed<S>7812</S> down.<S>7812</S>


text:
And Leah<S>3812</S> likewise<S>1571</S> came<S>5066</S> near<S>5066</S> with her children,<S>3206</S> and they bowed<S>7812</S> down;<S>7812</S> and afterward<S>310</S> Joseph<S>3130</S> came<S>5066</S> near<S>5066</S> with Rachel,<S>7354</S> and they bowed<S>7812</S> down.<S>7812</S>


text:
<pb/>And he said,<S>559</S> "What<S>4310</S> do you mean by all<S>3605</S> this<S>2088</S> company<S>4264</S> which<S>834</S> I have met<S>6298</S>?" And he said,<S>559</S> "To find<S>4672</S> favor<S>2580</S> in the sight<S>5869</S> of my lord.<S>113</S> "


text:
But Esau<S>6215</S> said,<S>559</S> "I have<S>3426</S> plenty,<S>7227</S> my brother;<S>251</S> let what<S>834</S> you have<S>1961</S> be your own."


text:
And Jacob<S>3290</S> said,<S>559</S> "No,<S>408</S> please,<S>4994</S> if<S>518</S> now<S>4994</S> I have found<S>4672</S> favor<S>2580</S> in your sight,<S>5869</S> then take<S>3947</S> my present<S>4503</S> from my hand,<S>3027</S> for I see<S>7200</S> your face<S>6440</S> as one sees<S>7200</S> the face<S>6440</S> of God,<S>430</S> and you have received<S>7521</S> me favorably.<S>7521</S>


text:
"Please<S>4994</S> take<S>3947</S> my gift<S>1293</S> which<S>834</S> has been brought<S>935</S> to you, because<S>3588</S> God<S>430</S> has dealt<S>2603</S> graciously<S>2603</S> with me, and because<S>3588</S> I have<S>3426</S> plenty.<S>3605</S>" Thus he urged<S>6484</S> him and he took<S>3947</S> [it.]


text:
<pb/>Then Esau said,<S>559</S> "Let us take<S>5265</S> our journey<S>5265</S> and go,<S>1980</S> and I will go<S>1980</S> before<S>5048</S> you."


text:
But he said<S>559</S> to him, "My lord<S>113</S> knows<S>3045</S> that the children<S>3206</S> are frail<S>7390</S> and that the flocks<S>6629</S> and herds<S>1241</S> which are nursing<S>5763</S> are a care<S>5921</S> to me. And if they are driven<S>1849</S> hard<S>1849</S> one<S>259</S> day,<S>3117</S> all<S>3605</S> the flocks<S>6629</S> will die.<S>4191</S>


text:
"Please<S>4994</S> let my lord<S>113</S> pass<S>5674</S> on before<S>6440</S> his servant;<S>5650</S> and I will proceed<S>5095</S> at my leisure,<S>328</S> according to the pace<S>7272</S> of the cattle<S>4399</S> that are before<S>6440</S> me and according to the pace<S>7272</S> of the children,<S>3206</S> until<S>5704</S> <S>834</S> I come<S>935</S> to my lord<S>113</S> at Seir.<S>8165</S>"


text:
<pb/>And Esau<S>6215</S> said,<S>559</S> "Please<S>4994</S> let me leave<S>3322</S> with you some<S>4480</S> of the people<S>5971</S> who<S>834</S> are with me." But he said,<S>559</S> "What<S>4100</S> need is there? Let me find<S>4672</S> favor<S>2580</S> in the sight<S>5869</S> of my lord.<S>113</S>"


text:
<pb/>So Esau<S>6215</S> returned<S>7725</S> that day<S>3117</S> on his way<S>1870</S> to Seir.<S>8165</S>


text:
And Jacob<S>3290</S> journeyed<S>5265</S> to Succoth;<S>5523</S> and built<S>1129</S> for himself a house,<S>1004</S> and made<S>6213</S> booths<S>5521</S> for his livestock,<S>4735</S> therefore<S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> the place<S>4725</S> is named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> Succoth.<S>5523</S>


text:
<pb/>Now Jacob<S>3290</S> came<S>935</S> safely<S>8003</S> to the city<S>5892</S> of Shechem,<S>7927</S> which<S>834</S> is in the land<S>776</S> of Canaan,<S>3667</S> when he came<S>935</S> from Paddan-aram, and camped<S>2583</S> before<S>6440</S> the city.<S>5892</S>


text:
And he bought<S>7069</S> the piece<S>2513</S> of land<S>2513</S> where<S>834</S> <S>8033</S> he had pitched<S>5186</S> his tent<S>168</S> from the hand<S>3027</S> of the sons<S>1121</S> of Hamor,<S>2544</S> Shechem's father, for one hundred<S>1</S> pieces<S>3967</S> of money.<S>7192</S>


text:
Then he erected<S>5324</S> there<S>8033</S> an altar,<S>4196</S> and called<S>7121</S> it El-Elohe-Israel.


text:
<pb/>Now Dinah<S>1783</S> the daughter<S>1323</S> of Leah,<S>3812</S> whom<S>834</S> she had borne<S>3205</S> to Jacob,<S>3290</S> went<S>3318</S> out to visit<S>7200</S> the daughters<S>1323</S> of the land.<S>776</S>


text:
And when Shechem<S>7927</S> the son<S>1121</S> of Hamor<S>2544</S> the Hivite,<S>2340</S> the prince<S>5387</S> of the land,<S>776</S> saw<S>7200</S> her, he took<S>3947</S> her and lay<S>7901</S> with her by force.<S>6031</S>


text:
And he was deeply<S>1692</S> attracted<S>1692</S> to Dinah<S>1783</S> the daughter<S>1323</S> of Jacob,<S>3290</S> and he loved<S>157</S> the girl<S>5291</S> and spoke<S>1696</S> tenderly<S>3820</S> to her.


text:
So Shechem<S>7927</S> spoke<S>559</S> to his father Hamor,<S>1</S> saying,<S>2544</S> "Get<S>559</S> me this<S>3947</S> young<S>2088</S> girl<S>3207</S> for a wife.<S>3207</S>"


text:
Now Jacob<S>3290</S> heard<S>8085</S> that he had defiled<S>2930</S> Dinah<S>1783</S> his daughter;<S>1323</S> but his sons<S>1121</S> were with his livestock<S>4735</S> in the field,<S>7704</S> so Jacob<S>3290</S> kept<S>2790</S> silent<S>2790</S> until<S>5704</S> they came<S>935</S> in.


text:
<pb/>Then Hamor<S>2544</S> the father of Shechem<S>1</S> went<S>7927</S> out to Jacob<S>3318</S> to speak<S>3290</S> with him.


text:
Now the sons<S>1121</S> of Jacob<S>3290</S> came<S>935</S> in from the field<S>7704</S> when they heard<S>8085</S> [it;] and the men<S>376</S> were grieved,<S>6087</S> and they were very<S>3966</S> angry<S>2734</S> because<S>3588</S> he had done<S>6213</S> a disgraceful<S>5039</S> thing<S>5039</S> in Israel<S>3478</S> by lying<S>7901</S> with Jacob's daughter,<S>1323</S> for such<S>3651</S> a thing<S>3651</S> ought not to be done.<S>6213</S>


text:
<pb/>But Hamor<S>2544</S> spoke<S>1696</S> with them, saying,<S>559</S> "The soul<S>5315</S> of my son<S>1121</S> Shechem<S>7927</S> longs<S>2836</S> for your daughter;<S>1323</S> please<S>4994</S> give<S>5414</S> her to him in marriage.<S>802</S>


text:
"And intermarry<S>2859</S> with us; give<S>5414</S> your daughters<S>1323</S> to us, and take<S>3947</S> our daughters<S>1323</S> for yourselves.


text:
"Thus you shall live<S>3427</S> with us, and the land<S>776</S> shall be [open] before<S>6440</S> you; live<S>3427</S> and trade<S>5503</S> in it, and acquire<S>270</S> property<S>270</S> in it."


text:
<pb/>Shechem<S>7927</S> also said<S>559</S> to her father and to her brothers,<S>1</S> "If I find<S>251</S> favor<S>4672</S> in your sight,<S>2580</S> then I will give<S>5869</S> whatever<S>5414</S> you say<S>834</S> to me.


text:
"Ask<S>7235</S> me ever so<S>3966</S> much<S>7235</S> <S>3966</S> bridal<S>4119</S> payment<S>4119</S> and gift,<S>4976</S> and I will give<S>5414</S> according as you say<S>559</S> to me; but give<S>5414</S> me the girl<S>5291</S> in marriage.<S>802</S>"


text:
<pb/>But Jacob's sons<S>1121</S> answered<S>6030</S> Shechem<S>7927</S> and his father Hamor,<S>1</S> with deceit,<S>2544</S> and spoke<S>4820</S> to them, because<S>1696</S> he had defiled<S>834</S> Dinah<S>2930</S> their sister.<S>1783</S>


text:
And they said<S>559</S> to them, "We cannot<S>3201</S> <S>3808</S> do<S>6213</S> this<S>2088</S> thing,<S>1697</S> to give<S>5414</S> our sister<S>269</S> to one<S>376</S> who<S>834</S> is uncircumcised,<S>6190</S> for that would be a disgrace<S>2781</S> to us.


text:
"Only<S>389</S> on this<S>2088</S> [condition] will we consent<S>225</S> to you: if<S>518</S> you will become<S>1961</S> like<S>3644</S> us, in that every<S>3605</S> male<S>2145</S> of you be circumcised,<S>4135</S>


text:
then we will give<S>5414</S> our daughters<S>1323</S> to you, and we will take<S>3947</S> your daughters<S>1323</S> for ourselves, and we will live<S>3427</S> with you and become<S>1961</S> one<S>259</S> people.<S>5971</S>


text:
"But if<S>518</S> you will not listen<S>8085</S> to us to be circumcised,<S>4135</S> then we will take<S>3947</S> our daughter<S>1323</S> and go.<S>1980</S>"


text:
<pb/>Now their words<S>1697</S> seemed<S>3190</S> reasonable<S>3190</S> to Hamor<S>2544</S> and Shechem,<S>7927</S> Hamor's son.<S>1121</S>


text:
And the young<S>5288</S> man<S>5288</S> did not delay<S>309</S> to do<S>6213</S> the thing,<S>1697</S> because<S>3588</S> he was delighted<S>2654</S> with Jacob's daughter.<S>1323</S> Now he was more<S>4480</S> respected<S>3513</S> than<S>4480</S> all<S>3605</S> the household<S>1004</S> of his father.


text:
So Hamor<S>2544</S> and his son<S>1121</S> Shechem<S>7927</S> came<S>935</S> to the gate<S>8179</S> of their city,<S>5892</S> and spoke<S>1696</S> to the men<S>376</S> of their city,<S>5892</S> saying,<S>559</S>


text:
"These<S>428</S> men<S>376</S> are friendly<S>8003</S> with us; therefore let them live<S>3427</S> in the land<S>776</S> and trade<S>5503</S> in it, for behold,<S>2009</S> the land<S>776</S> is large<S>7342</S> <S>3027</S> enough<S>3027</S> for them. Let us take<S>3947</S> their daughters<S>1323</S> in marriage,<S>802</S> and give<S>5414</S> our daughters<S>1323</S> to them.


text:
"Only<S>389</S> on this<S>2088</S> [condition] will the men<S>376</S> consent<S>225</S> to us to live<S>3427</S> with us, to become<S>1961</S> one<S>259</S> people:<S>5971</S> that every<S>3605</S> male<S>2145</S> among us be circumcised<S>4135</S> as they are circumcised.<S>4135</S>


text:
"Will not their livestock<S>4735</S> and their property<S>7075</S> and all<S>3605</S> their animals<S>929</S> be ours? Only<S>389</S> let us consent<S>225</S> to them, and they will live<S>3427</S> with us."


text:
<pb/>And all<S>3605</S> who went<S>3318</S> out of the gate<S>8179</S> of his city<S>5892</S> listened<S>8085</S> to Hamor<S>2544</S> and to his son<S>1121</S> Shechem,<S>7927</S> and every<S>3605</S> male<S>2145</S> was circumcised,<S>4135</S> all<S>3605</S> who went<S>3318</S> out of the gate<S>8179</S> of his city.<S>5892</S>


text:
Now it came<S>1961</S> about on the third<S>7992</S> day,<S>3117</S> when they were in pain,<S>3510</S> that two<S>8147</S> of Jacob's sons,<S>1121</S> Simeon<S>8095</S> and Levi,<S>3878</S> Dinah's brothers,<S>251</S> each<S>376</S> took<S>3947</S> his sword<S>2719</S> and came<S>935</S> upon the city<S>5892</S> unawares,<S>983</S> and killed<S>2026</S> every<S>3605</S> male.<S>2145</S>


text:
And they killed<S>2026</S> Hamor<S>2544</S> and his son<S>1121</S> Shechem<S>7927</S> with the edge<S>6310</S> of the sword,<S>2719</S> and took<S>3947</S> Dinah<S>1783</S> from Shechem's house,<S>1004</S> and went<S>3318</S> forth.<S>3318</S>


text:
Jacob's sons<S>1121</S> came<S>935</S> upon the slain<S>2491</S> and looted<S>962</S> the city,<S>5892</S> because<S>834</S> they had defiled<S>2930</S> their sister.<S>269</S>


text:
They took<S>3947</S> their flocks<S>6629</S> and their herds<S>1241</S> and their donkeys,<S>2543</S> and that which<S>834</S> was in the city<S>5892</S> and that which<S>834</S> was in the field;<S>7704</S>


text:
and they captured<S>7617</S> and looted<S>962</S> all<S>3605</S> their wealth<S>2428</S> and all<S>3605</S> their little<S>2945</S> ones<S>2945</S> and their wives,<S>802</S> even all<S>3605</S> that [was] in the houses.<S>1004</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Jacob<S>3290</S> said<S>559</S> to Simeon<S>8095</S> and Levi,<S>3878</S> "You have brought<S>5916</S> trouble<S>5916</S> on me, by making<S>887</S> me odious<S>887</S> among the inhabitants<S>3427</S> of the land,<S>776</S> among the Canaanites<S>3669</S> and the Perizzites;<S>6522</S> and my men<S>4962</S> being few<S>4962</S> in number,<S>4557</S> they will gather<S>622</S> together against<S>5921</S> me and attack<S>5221</S> me and I shall be destroyed,<S>8045</S> I and my household.<S>1004</S>"


text:
<pb/>Then God<S>430</S> said<S>559</S> to Jacob,<S>3290</S> "Arise,<S>6965</S> go<S>5927</S> up to Bethel,<S>1008</S> and live<S>3427</S> there;<S>8033</S> and make<S>6213</S> an altar<S>4196</S> there<S>8033</S> to God,<S>410</S> who appeared<S>7200</S> to you when you fled<S>1272</S> from your brother<S>251</S> Esau.<S>6215</S>"


text:
So Jacob<S>3290</S> said<S>559</S> to his household<S>1004</S> and to all<S>3605</S> who<S>834</S> were with him, "Put<S>5493</S> away<S>5493</S> the foreign<S>5236</S> gods<S>430</S> which<S>834</S> are among<S>8432</S> you, and purify<S>2891</S> yourselves, and change<S>2498</S> your garments;<S>8071</S>


text:
and let us arise<S>6965</S> and go<S>5927</S> up to Bethel;<S>1008</S> and I will make<S>6213</S> an altar<S>4196</S> there<S>8033</S> to God,<S>410</S> who answered<S>6030</S> me in the day<S>3117</S> of my distress,<S>6869</S> and has been<S>1961</S> with me wherever<S>1870</S> <S>834</S> I have gone.<S>1980</S> "


text:
<pb/>So they gave<S>5414</S> to Jacob<S>3290</S> all<S>3605</S> the foreign<S>5236</S> gods<S>430</S> which<S>834</S> they had,<S>3027</S> and the rings<S>5141</S> which<S>834</S> were in their ears;<S>241</S> and Jacob<S>3290</S> hid<S>2934</S> them under<S>8478</S> the oak<S>424</S> which<S>834</S> was near<S>5973</S> Shechem.<S>7927</S>


text:
As they journeyed,<S>5265</S> there was a great<S>430</S> terror<S>2847</S> upon the cities<S>5892</S> which<S>834</S> were around<S>5439</S> them, and they did not pursue<S>7291</S> the sons<S>1121</S> of Jacob.<S>3290</S>


text:
<pb/>So Jacob<S>3290</S> came<S>935</S> to Luz<S>3870</S> (that is, Bethel<S>1008</S>), which<S>834</S> is in the land<S>776</S> of Canaan,<S>3667</S> he and all<S>3605</S> the people<S>5971</S> who<S>834</S> were with him.

And he built<S>1129</S> an altar<S>4196</S> there,<S>8033</S> and called<S>7121</S> the place<S>4725</S> El-bethel, because<S>3588</S> there<S>8033</S> God<S>430</S> had revealed<S>1540</S> Himself to him, when he fled<S>1272</S> from his brother.<S>251</S>

Now Deborah,<S>1683</S> Rebekah's nurse,<S>3243</S> died,<S>4191</S> and she was buried<S>6912</S> below<S>4480</S> <S>8478</S> Bethel<S>1008</S> under<S>8478</S> the oak;<S>437</S> it was named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> Allon-bacuth.

<pb/>Then God<S>430</S> appeared<S>7200</S> to Jacob<S>3290</S> again<S>5750</S> when he came<S>935</S> from Paddan-aram, and He blessed<S>1288</S> him.


text:
And God<S>430</S> said<S>559</S> to him, "Your name<S>8034</S> is Jacob;<S>3290</S> You shall no<S>3808</S> longer<S>5750</S> be called<S>7121</S> Jacob,<S>3290</S> But Israel<S>3478</S> shall be your name.<S>8034</S>" Thus He called<S>7121</S> him Israel.<S>3478</S>


text:
God<S>430</S> also said<S>559</S> to him, "I am God<S>410</S> Almighty;<S>7706</S> Be fruitful<S>6509</S> and multiply;<S>7235</S> A nation<S>1471</S> and a company<S>6951</S> of nations<S>1471</S> shall come<S>1961</S> from you, And kings<S>4428</S> shall come<S>3318</S> forth<S>3318</S> from you.

"And the land<S>776</S> which<S>834</S> I gave<S>5414</S> to Abraham<S>85</S> and Isaac,<S>3327</S> I will give<S>5414</S> it to you, And I will give<S>5414</S> the land<S>776</S> to your descendants<S>2233</S> after you."


text:
Then God<S>430</S> went<S>5927</S> up from him in the place<S>4725</S> where<S>834</S> He had spoken<S>1696</S> with him.


text:
And Jacob<S>3290</S> set<S>5324</S> up a pillar<S>4676</S> in the place<S>4725</S> where<S>834</S> He had spoken<S>1696</S> with him, a pillar<S>4676</S> of stone,<S>68</S> and he poured<S>5258</S> out a libation<S>5262</S> on it; he also poured<S>3332</S> oil<S>8081</S> on it.


text:
So Jacob<S>3290</S> named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> the place<S>4725</S> where<S>834</S> <S>8033</S> God<S>430</S> had spoken<S>1696</S> with him, Bethel.<S>1008</S>


text:
<pb/>Then they journeyed<S>5265</S> from Bethel;<S>1008</S> and when there was still<S>5750</S> some<S>3530</S> distance<S>3530</S> <S>776</S> to go<S>935</S> to Ephrath,<S>672</S> Rachel<S>7354</S> began to give<S>3205</S> birth<S>3205</S> and she suffered<S>7185</S> severe<S>7185</S> labor.<S>3205</S>


text:
And it came<S>1961</S> about when she was in severe<S>7185</S> labor<S>3205</S> that the midwife<S>3205</S> said<S>559</S> to her, "Do not fear,<S>3372</S> for now<S>1571</S> <S>2088</S> you have [another] son.<S>1121</S>"


text:
And it came<S>1961</S> about as her soul<S>5315</S> was departing<S>3318</S> (for she died<S>4191</S>), that she named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Ben-oni; but his father called<S>1</S> him Benjamin.<S>7121</S>


text:
So Rachel<S>7354</S> died<S>4191</S> and was buried<S>6912</S> on the way<S>1870</S> to Ephrath<S>672</S> (that is, Bethlehem<S>1035</S>).


text:
And Jacob<S>3290</S> set<S>5324</S> up a pillar<S>4676</S> over<S>5921</S> her grave;<S>6900</S> that is the pillar<S>4676</S> of Rachel's grave<S>6900</S> to this day.<S>3117</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Israel<S>3478</S> journeyed<S>5265</S> on and pitched<S>5186</S> his tent<S>168</S> beyond<S>4480</S> <S>1973</S> the tower<S>4029</S> of Eder.<S>4029</S>

<pb/>And Jacob<S>3290</S> came<S>935</S> to his father Isaac<S>1</S> at Mamre<S>3327</S> of Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron<S>4471</S>), where<S>2275</S> <S>834</S> Abraham<S>8033</S> and Isaac<S>85</S> had sojourned.<S>3327</S>

Now the days<S>3117</S> of Isaac<S>3327</S> were one hundred<S>3967</S> and eighty<S>8084</S> years.<S>8141</S>

<pb/>These<S>428</S> are [the records of] the generations<S>8435</S> of Jacob.<S>3290</S> Joseph,<S>3130</S> when seventeen<S>7651</S> <S>6240</S> years<S>8141</S> of age,<S>1121</S> was pasturing<S>7462</S> the flock<S>6629</S> with his brothers<S>251</S> while he was [still] a youth,<S>5288</S> along with the sons<S>1121</S> of Bilhah<S>1090</S> and the sons<S>1121</S> of Zilpah,<S>2153</S> his father's wives.<S>1</S> And Joseph<S>802</S> brought<S>3130</S> back a bad<S>935</S> <S>1681</S> report<S>7451</S> about them to their father.


text:
<pb/>Now Israel<S>3478</S> loved<S>157</S> Joseph<S>3130</S> more<S>4480</S> than<S>4480</S> all<S>3605</S> his sons,<S>1121</S> because<S>3588</S> he was the son<S>1121</S> of his old<S>2208</S> age;<S>2208</S> and he made<S>6213</S> him a varicolored<S>6446</S> tunic.<S>3801</S>


text:
And his brothers<S>251</S> saw<S>7200</S> that their father loved<S>1</S> him more<S>157</S> than<S>4480</S> all<S>4480</S> his brothers;<S>3605</S> and [so] they hated<S>251</S> him and could<S>8130</S> not speak<S>3201</S> to him on friendly<S>1696</S> terms.<S>7965</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Joseph<S>3130</S> had<S>2492</S> a dream,<S>2472</S> and when he told<S>5046</S> it to his brothers,<S>251</S> they hated<S>8130</S> him even<S>5750</S> more.<S>3254</S> <S>5750</S>


text:
And he said<S>559</S> to them, "Please<S>4994</S> listen<S>8085</S> to this<S>2088</S> dream<S>2472</S> which<S>834</S> I have had;<S>2492</S>


text:
for behold,<S>2009</S> we were binding<S>481</S> sheaves<S>485</S> in the field,<S>7704</S> and lo,<S>2009</S> my sheaf<S>485</S> rose<S>6965</S> up and also<S>1571</S> stood<S>5324</S> erect;<S>5324</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> your sheaves<S>485</S> gathered<S>5437</S> around<S>5437</S> and bowed<S>7812</S> down<S>7812</S> to my sheaf.<S>485</S> "


text:
Then his brothers<S>251</S> said<S>559</S> to him, "Are you actually<S>4427</S> going to reign<S>4427</S> over<S>5921</S> us? Or<S>518</S> are you really<S>4910</S> going to rule<S>4910</S> over us?" So they hated<S>8130</S> him even<S>5750</S> more<S>3254</S> <S>5750</S> for his dreams<S>2472</S> and for his words.<S>1697</S>


text:
<pb/>Now he had<S>2492</S> still<S>5750</S> another<S>312</S> dream,<S>2472</S> and related<S>5608</S> it to his brothers,<S>251</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Lo,<S>2009</S> I have had<S>2492</S> still<S>5750</S> another dream;<S>2472</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> the sun<S>8121</S> and the moon<S>3394</S> and eleven<S>259</S> <S>6240</S> stars<S>3556</S> were bowing<S>7812</S> down<S>7812</S> to me."


text:
And he related<S>5608</S> [it] to his father and to his brothers;<S>1</S> and his father rebuked<S>251</S> him and said<S>1</S> to him, "What<S>1605</S> is this<S>559</S> dream<S>4100</S> that you have had<S>2088</S>? Shall I and your mother<S>2472</S> and your brothers<S>2492</S> actually<S>517</S> come<S>251</S> to bow<S>935</S> ourselves down<S>935</S> before you to the ground<S>7812</S>?"


text:
And his brothers<S>251</S> were jealous<S>7065</S> of him, but his father kept<S>1</S> the saying<S>8104</S> [in mind.]


text:
<pb/>Then his brothers<S>251</S> went<S>1980</S> to pasture<S>7462</S> their father's flock<S>6629</S> in Shechem.<S>7927</S>


text:
And Israel<S>3478</S> said<S>559</S> to Joseph,<S>3130</S> "Are not your brothers<S>251</S> pasturing<S>7462</S> [the flock] in Shechem<S>7927</S>? Come,<S>1980</S> and I will send<S>7971</S> you to them." And he said<S>559</S> to him, "I will go.<S>2009</S>"


text:
Then he said<S>559</S> to him, "Go<S>1980</S> now<S>4994</S> and see<S>7200</S> about the welfare<S>7965</S> of your brothers<S>251</S> and the welfare<S>7965</S> of the flock;<S>6629</S> and bring<S>7725</S> word<S>1697</S> back<S>7725</S> to me." So he sent<S>7971</S> him from the valley<S>6010</S> of Hebron,<S>2275</S> and he came<S>935</S> to Shechem.<S>7927</S>


text:
<pb/>And a man<S>376</S> found<S>4672</S> him, and behold,<S>2009</S> he was wandering<S>8582</S> in the field;<S>7704</S> and the man<S>376</S> asked<S>7592</S> him, "What<S>4100</S> are you looking<S>1245</S> for?"


text:
And he said,<S>559</S> "I am looking<S>1245</S> for my brothers;<S>251</S> please<S>4994</S> tell<S>5046</S> me where<S>375</S> they are pasturing<S>7462</S> [the flock.]"


text:
Then the man<S>376</S> said,<S>559</S> "They have moved<S>5265</S> from here;<S>2088</S> for I heard<S>8085</S> [them] say,<S>559</S> 'Let us go<S>1980</S> to Dothan.<S>1886</S>'" So Joseph<S>3130</S> went<S>1980</S> after his brothers<S>251</S> and found<S>4672</S> them at Dothan.<S>1886</S>


text:
<pb/>When they saw<S>7200</S> him from a distance<S>7350</S> and before<S>2962</S> he came<S>7126</S> close<S>7126</S> to them, they plotted<S>5230</S> against<S>854</S> him to put<S>4191</S> him to death.<S>4191</S>


text:
And they said<S>559</S> to one<S>376</S> another,<S>251</S> "Here<S>2009</S> comes<S>935</S> this<S>1976</S> dreamer<S>1167</S>!<S>2472</S>


text:
"Now<S>6258</S> then, come<S>1980</S> and let us kill<S>2026</S> him and throw<S>7993</S> him into one<S>259</S> of the pits;<S>953</S> and we will say,<S>559</S> 'A wild<S>7451</S> beast<S>9130</S> devoured<S>398</S> him.' Then let us see<S>7200</S> what<S>4100</S> will become<S>1961</S> of his dreams!<S>2472</S>"


text:
<pb/>But Reuben<S>7205</S> heard<S>8085</S> [this] and rescued<S>5337</S> him out of their hands<S>3027</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Let us not take<S>5221</S> his life.<S>5315</S>"


text:
Reuben<S>7205</S> further said<S>559</S> to them, "Shed<S>8210</S> no<S>408</S> blood.<S>1818</S> Throw<S>7993</S> him into this<S>2088</S> pit<S>953</S> that is in the wilderness,<S>4057</S> but do not lay<S>7971</S> hands<S>3027</S> on him" – that he might rescue<S>5337</S> him out of their hands,<S>3027</S> to restore<S>7725</S> him to his father.


text:
<pb/>So it came<S>1961</S> about, when<S>9201</S> Joseph<S>3130</S> reached<S>935</S> his brothers,<S>251</S> that they stripped<S>6584</S> Joseph<S>3130</S> of his tunic,<S>3801</S> the varicolored<S>6446</S> tunic<S>3801</S> that was on him;


text:
and they took<S>3947</S> him and threw<S>7993</S> him into the pit.<S>953</S> Now the pit<S>953</S> was empty,<S>7386</S> without<S>369</S> any water<S>4325</S> in it.


text:
<pb/>Then they sat<S>3427</S> down<S>3427</S> to eat<S>398</S> a meal.<S>3899</S> And as they raised<S>5375</S> their eyes<S>5869</S> and looked,<S>7200</S> behold,<S>2009</S> a caravan<S>736</S> of Ishmaelites<S>3459</S> was coming<S>935</S> from Gilead,<S>1568</S> with their camels<S>1581</S> bearing<S>5375</S> aromatic<S>5219</S> gum<S>5219</S> and balm<S>6875</S> and myrrh,<S>3910</S> on their way<S>1980</S> to bring<S>3381</S> [them] down<S>3381</S> to Egypt.<S>4714</S>


text:
And Judah<S>3063</S> said<S>559</S> to his brothers,<S>251</S> "What<S>4100</S> profit<S>1215</S> is it for us to kill<S>2026</S> our brother<S>251</S> and cover<S>3680</S> up his blood<S>1818</S>?


text:
"Come<S>1980</S> and let us sell<S>4376</S> him to the Ishmaelites<S>3459</S> and not lay<S>1961</S> our hands<S>3027</S> on him; for he is our brother,<S>251</S> our [own] flesh.<S>1320</S>" And his brothers<S>251</S> listened<S>8085</S> [to him.]


text:
Then some<S>376</S> Midianite<S>4084</S> traders<S>5503</S> passed<S>5674</S> by, so they pulled<S>4900</S> [him] up and lifted<S>5927</S> Joseph<S>3130</S> out of the pit,<S>953</S> and sold<S>4376</S> him to the Ishmaelites<S>3459</S> for twenty<S>6242</S> [shekels] of silver.<S>3701</S> Thus they brought<S>935</S> Joseph<S>3130</S> into Egypt.<S>4714</S>


text:
<pb/>Now Reuben<S>7205</S> returned<S>7725</S> to the pit,<S>953</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> Joseph<S>3130</S> was not in the pit;<S>953</S> so he tore<S>7167</S> his garments.<S>899</S>


text:
And he returned<S>7725</S> to his brothers<S>251</S> and said,<S>559</S> "The boy<S>3206</S> is not [there;] as for me, where<S>575</S> am I to go<S>935</S>?"


text:
So they took<S>3947</S> Joseph's tunic,<S>3801</S> and slaughtered<S>7819</S> a male<S>8163</S> goat,<S>8163</S> and dipped<S>2881</S> the tunic<S>3801</S> in the blood;<S>1818</S>


text:
and they sent<S>7971</S> the varicolored<S>6446</S> tunic<S>3801</S> and brought<S>935</S> it to their father and said,<S>1</S> "We found<S>559</S> this;<S>4672</S> please<S>2088</S> examine<S>4994</S> [it] to [see] whether it is your son's tunic<S>5234</S> or<S>3801</S> not."


text:
<pb/>Then he examined<S>5234</S> it and said,<S>559</S> "It is my son's tunic.<S>3801</S> A wild<S>7451</S> beast<S>9130</S> has devoured<S>398</S> him; Joseph<S>3130</S> has surely<S>2963</S> been torn<S>2963</S> to pieces!<S>2963</S>"


text:
So Jacob<S>3290</S> tore<S>7167</S> his clothes,<S>8071</S> and put<S>7760</S> sackcloth<S>8242</S> on his loins,<S>4975</S> and mourned<S>56</S> for his son<S>1121</S> many<S>7227</S> days.<S>3117</S>


text:
Then all<S>3605</S> his sons<S>1121</S> and all<S>3605</S> his daughters<S>1323</S> arose<S>6965</S> to comfort<S>5162</S> him, but he refused<S>3985</S> to be comforted.<S>5162</S> And he said,<S>559</S> "Surely<S>3588</S> I will go<S>3381</S> down<S>3381</S> to Sheol<S>7585</S> in mourning<S>57</S> for my son.<S>1121</S>" So his father wept<S>1</S> for him.


text:
<pb/>Meanwhile, the Midianites<S>4084</S> sold<S>4376</S> him in Egypt<S>4714</S> to Potiphar,<S>6318</S> Pharaoh's officer,<S>5631</S> the captain<S>8269</S> of the bodyguard.<S>2876</S>


text:
<pb/>And it came<S>1961</S> about at that time,<S>6256</S> that Judah<S>3063</S> departed<S>3381</S> from his brothers,<S>251</S> and visited<S>5186</S> a certain<S>376</S> Adullamite,<S>5726</S> whose name<S>8034</S> was Hirah.<S>2437</S>


text:
And Judah<S>3063</S> saw<S>7200</S> there<S>8033</S> a daughter<S>1323</S> of a certain<S>376</S> Canaanite<S>3669</S> whose name<S>8034</S> was Shua;<S>7770</S> and he took<S>3947</S> her and went<S>935</S> in to her.


text:
So she conceived<S>2029</S> and bore<S>3205</S> a son<S>1121</S> and he named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Er.<S>6147</S>


text:
Then she conceived<S>2029</S> again<S>5750</S> and bore<S>3205</S> a son<S>1121</S> and named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Onan.<S>209</S>


text:
And she bore<S>3205</S> still<S>5750</S> another<S>3254</S> son<S>1121</S> and named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Shelah;<S>7956</S> and it was at Chezib<S>3580</S> that she bore<S>3205</S> him.


text:
<pb/>Now Judah<S>3063</S> took<S>3947</S> a wife<S>802</S> for Er<S>6147</S> his first-born, and her name<S>8034</S> [was] Tamar.<S>8559</S>


text:
But Er,<S>6147</S> Judah's first-born, was evil<S>7451</S> in the sight<S>5869</S> of the Lord,<S>3068</S> so the Lord<S>3068</S> took<S>4191</S> his life.<S>4191</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Judah<S>3063</S> said<S>559</S> to Onan,<S>209</S> "Go<S>935</S> in to your brother<S>251</S>'s wife,<S>802</S> and perform<S>2992</S> your duty<S>2992</S> as a brother-in-law to her, and raise<S>6965</S> up offspring<S>2233</S> for your brother."


text:
And Onan<S>209</S> knew<S>3045</S> that the offspring<S>2233</S> would not be his; so it came<S>1961</S> about that when<S>518</S> he went<S>935</S> in to his brother<S>251</S>'s wife,<S>802</S> he wasted<S>7843</S> his seed on the ground,<S>776</S> in order not to give<S>5414</S> offspring<S>2233</S> to his brother.


text:
But what<S>834</S> he did<S>6213</S> was displeasing<S>7489</S> in the sight<S>5869</S> of the Lord;<S>3068</S> so He took<S>4191</S> his life<S>4191</S> also.<S>1571</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Judah<S>3063</S> said<S>559</S> to his daughter-in-law Tamar,<S>8559</S> "Remain<S>3427</S> a widow<S>490</S> in your father's house<S>1004</S> until<S>5704</S> my son<S>1121</S> Shelah<S>7956</S> grows<S>1431</S> up"; for he thought,<S>559</S> "[I am afraid] that he too<S>1571</S> may die<S>4191</S> like his brothers.<S>251</S>" So Tamar<S>8559</S> went<S>1980</S> and lived<S>3427</S> in her father's house.<S>1004</S>


text:
<pb/>Now after a considerable<S>7235</S> time<S>3117</S> Shua's daughter,<S>1323</S> the wife<S>802</S> of Judah,<S>3063</S> died;<S>4191</S> and when the time<S>5162</S> of mourning<S>5162</S> was ended,<S>5162</S> Judah<S>3063</S> went<S>5927</S> up to his sheepshearers<S>6629</S> <S>1494</S> at Timnah,<S>8553</S> he and his friend<S>7453</S> Hirah<S>2437</S> the Adullamite.<S>5726</S>


text:
And it was told<S>5046</S> to Tamar,<S>8559</S> "Behold,<S>2009</S> your father-in-law is going<S>5927</S> up to Timnah<S>8553</S> to shear<S>1494</S> his sheep.<S>6629</S>"


text:
So she removed<S>5493</S> her widow's garments<S>899</S> and covered<S>3680</S> [herself] with a veil,<S>6809</S> and wrapped<S>5968</S> herself, and sat<S>3427</S> in the gateway<S>6607</S> of Enaim,<S>5879</S> which<S>834</S> is on the road<S>1870</S> to Timnah;<S>8553</S> for she saw<S>7200</S> that Shelah<S>7956</S> had grown<S>1431</S> up, and she had not been given<S>5414</S> to him as a wife.<S>802</S>


text:
<pb/>When Judah<S>3063</S> saw<S>7200</S> her, he thought<S>2803</S> she [was] a harlot,<S>2181</S> for she had covered<S>3680</S> her face.<S>6440</S>


text:
So he turned<S>5186</S> aside<S>5186</S> to her by the road,<S>1870</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Here<S>3051</S> now,<S>4994</S> let me come<S>935</S> in to you"; for he did not know<S>3045</S> that she was his daughter-in-law. And she said,<S>559</S> "What<S>4100</S> will you give<S>5414</S> me, that you may come<S>935</S> in to me?"

He said,<S>559</S> therefore, "I will send<S>7971</S> you a kid<S>1423</S> <S>5795</S> from the flock.<S>6629</S>" She said,<S>559</S> moreover, "Will you give<S>5414</S> a pledge<S>6162</S> until<S>5704</S> you send<S>7971</S> [it?]"


text:
And he said,<S>559</S> "What<S>4100</S> pledge<S>6162</S> shall I give<S>5414</S> you?" And she said,<S>559</S> "Your seal<S>2368</S> and your cord,<S>6616</S> and your staff<S>4294</S> that is in your hand.<S>3027</S>" So he gave<S>5414</S> [them] to her, and went<S>935</S> in to her, and she conceived<S>2029</S> by him.


text:
Then she arose<S>6965</S> and departed,<S>1980</S> and removed<S>5493</S> her veil<S>6809</S> and put<S>3847</S> on her widow's garments.<S>899</S>


text:
<pb/>When Judah<S>3063</S> sent<S>7971</S> the kid<S>1423</S> <S>5795</S> by his friend<S>7453</S> the Adullamite,<S>5726</S> to receive<S>3947</S> the pledge<S>6162</S> from the woman's hand,<S>3027</S> he did not find<S>4672</S> her.


text:
And he asked<S>7592</S> the men<S>376</S> of her place,<S>4725</S> saying,<S>559</S> "Where<S>346</S> is the temple<S>6945</S> prostitute<S>6945</S> who<S>1931</S> was by the road<S>1870</S> at Enaim<S>5879</S>?" But they said,<S>559</S> "There has been<S>1961</S> no<S>3808</S> temple<S>6945</S> prostitute<S>6945</S> here.<S>2088</S>"


text:
So he returned<S>7725</S> to Judah,<S>3063</S> and said,<S>559</S> "I did not find<S>4672</S> her; and furthermore,<S>1571</S> the men<S>376</S> of the place<S>4725</S> said,<S>559</S> 'There has been<S>1961</S> no<S>3808</S> temple<S>6945</S> prostitute<S>6945</S> here.<S>2088</S>'"


text:
Then Judah<S>3063</S> said,<S>559</S> "Let her keep<S>3947</S> them, lest<S>6435</S> we become<S>1961</S> a laughingstock.<S>937</S> After<S>2009</S> all,<S>2009</S> I sent<S>7971</S> this<S>2088</S> kid,<S>1423</S> but you did not find<S>4672</S> her."


text:
<pb/>Now it was about three<S>7969</S> months<S>2320</S> later that Judah<S>3063</S> was informed,<S>5046</S> "Your daughter-in-law Tamar<S>8559</S> has played<S>2181</S> the harlot,<S>2181</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> she is also<S>1571</S> with child<S>2030</S> by harlotry.<S>2183</S>" Then Judah<S>3063</S> said,<S>559</S> "Bring<S>3318</S> her out and let her be burned!<S>8313</S>"


text:
It was while she was being brought<S>3318</S> out that she sent<S>7971</S> to her father-in-law, saying,<S>559</S> "I am with child<S>2030</S> by the man<S>376</S> to whom<S>834</S> these<S>428</S> things<S>428</S> belong." And she said,<S>559</S> "Please<S>4994</S> examine<S>5234</S> and see,<S>5234</S> whose<S>4310</S> signet<S>2368</S> ring<S>2858</S> and cords<S>6616</S> and staff<S>4294</S> are these<S>428</S>? "


text:
And Judah<S>3063</S> recognized<S>5234</S> [them,] and said,<S>559</S> "She is more<S>4480</S> righteous<S>6663</S> than<S>4480</S> I, inasmuch<S>3588</S> <S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> as I did not give<S>5414</S> her to my son<S>1121</S> Shelah.<S>7956</S>" And he did not have<S>3045</S> relations<S>3045</S> with her again.<S>3254</S> <S>5750</S>


text:
<pb/>And it came<S>1961</S> about at the time<S>6256</S> she was giving<S>3205</S> birth,<S>3205</S> that behold,<S>2009</S> there were twins<S>9639</S> in her womb.<S>990</S>


text:
Moreover, it took<S>1961</S> place<S>1961</S> while she was giving<S>3205</S> birth,<S>3205</S> one put<S>5414</S> out a hand,<S>3027</S> and the midwife<S>3205</S> took<S>3947</S> and tied<S>7194</S> a scarlet<S>8144</S> [thread] on his hand,<S>3027</S> saying,<S>559</S> "This<S>2088</S> one<S>2088</S> came<S>3318</S> out first.<S>7223</S>"


text:
But it came<S>1961</S> about as he drew<S>7725</S> back<S>7725</S> his hand,<S>3027</S> that behold,<S>2009</S> his brother<S>251</S> came<S>3318</S> out. Then she said,<S>559</S> "What<S>4100</S> a breach<S>6556</S> you have made<S>6555</S> for yourself!" So he was named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> Perez.<S>6557</S>


text:
And afterward<S>310</S> his brother<S>251</S> came<S>3318</S> out who<S>834</S> had the scarlet<S>8144</S> [thread] on his hand;<S>3027</S> and he was named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> Zerah.<S>2226</S>


text:
<pb/>Now Joseph<S>3130</S> had been taken<S>3381</S> down<S>3381</S> to Egypt;<S>4714</S> and Potiphar,<S>6318</S> an Egyptian<S>4713</S> officer<S>5631</S> of Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> the captain<S>8269</S> of the bodyguard,<S>2876</S> bought<S>7069</S> him from the Ishmaelites,<S>3459</S> who<S>834</S> had taken<S>3381</S> him down<S>3381</S> there.<S>8033</S>


text:
And the Lord<S>3068</S> was with Joseph,<S>3130</S> so he became<S>1961</S> a successful<S>6743</S> man.<S>376</S> And he was in the house<S>1004</S> of his master,<S>113</S> the Egyptian.<S>4713</S>


text:
Now his master<S>113</S> saw<S>7200</S> that the Lord<S>3068</S> was with him and [how] the Lord<S>3068</S> caused all<S>3605</S> that he did<S>6213</S> to prosper<S>6743</S> in his hand.<S>3027</S>


text:
So Joseph<S>3130</S> found<S>4672</S> favor<S>2580</S> in his sight,<S>5869</S> and became<S>8334</S> his personal<S>8334</S> servant;<S>8334</S> and he made<S>6485</S> him overseer<S>6485</S> over<S>5921</S> his house,<S>1004</S> and all<S>3605</S> that he owned<S>3426</S> he put<S>5414</S> in his charge.<S>3027</S>


text:
And it came<S>1961</S> about that from the time<S>227</S> he made<S>6485</S> him overseer<S>6485</S> in his house,<S>1004</S> and over<S>5921</S> all<S>3605</S> that he owned,<S>3426</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> blessed<S>1288</S> the Egyptian's house<S>1004</S> on account<S>1558</S> of Joseph;<S>3130</S> thus the Lord's blessing<S>1293</S> was upon all<S>3605</S> that he owned,<S>3426</S> in the house<S>1004</S> and in the field.<S>7704</S>


text:
So he left<S>5800</S> everything<S>3605</S> he owned in Joseph<S>3130</S>'s charge;<S>3027</S> and with him [there] he did not concern<S>3045</S> himself with anything<S>3972</S> except<S>3588</S> <S>518</S> the food<S>3899</S> which<S>834</S> he ate.<S>398</S> Now Joseph was handsome<S>3303</S> in form<S>8389</S> and appearance.<S>4758</S>


text:
And it came<S>1961</S> about after<S>310</S> these<S>428</S> events<S>1697</S> that his master's wife<S>802</S> looked<S>5375</S> <S>5869</S> with desire<S>5375</S> at Joseph,<S>3130</S> and she said,<S>559</S> "Lie<S>7901</S> with me."


text:
But he refused<S>3985</S> and said<S>559</S> to his master<S>113</S>'s wife,<S>802</S> "Behold,<S>2005</S> with me [here,] my master does not concern<S>3045</S> himself with anything<S>4100</S> in the house,<S>1004</S> and he has put<S>5414</S> all<S>3605</S> that he owns<S>3426</S> in my charge.<S>3027</S>


text:
"There<S>369</S> is no<S>369</S> one greater<S>1419</S> in this<S>2088</S> house<S>1004</S> than<S>4480</S> I, and he has withheld<S>2820</S> nothing<S>3808</S> <S>3972</S> from me except<S>3588</S> <S>518</S> you, because<S>834</S> you are his wife.<S>802</S> How<S>349</S> then could I do<S>6213</S> this<S>2088</S> great<S>1419</S> evil,<S>9567</S> and sin<S>2398</S> against God<S>430</S>?"


text:
And it came<S>1961</S> about as she spoke<S>1696</S> to Joseph<S>3130</S> day<S>3117</S> after day,<S>3117</S> that he did not listen<S>8085</S> to her to lie<S>7901</S> beside<S>681</S> her, [or] be with her.


text:
<pb/>Now it happened<S>1961</S> one<S>2088</S> day<S>3117</S> that he went<S>935</S> into the house<S>1004</S> to do<S>6213</S> his work,<S>4399</S> and none<S>369</S> <S>376</S> of the men<S>376</S> of the household<S>1004</S> was there<S>8033</S> inside.<S>1004</S>


text:
And she caught<S>8610</S> him by his garment,<S>899</S> saying,<S>559</S> "Lie<S>7901</S> with me!" And he left<S>5800</S> his garment<S>899</S> in her hand<S>3027</S> and fled,<S>5127</S> and went<S>3318</S> outside.<S>2351</S>


text:
When she saw<S>7200</S> that he had left<S>5800</S> his garment<S>899</S> in her hand,<S>3027</S> and had fled<S>5127</S> outside,<S>2351</S>


text:
she called<S>7121</S> to the men<S>376</S> of her household,<S>1004</S> and said<S>559</S> to them, "See,<S>7200</S> he has brought<S>935</S> in a Hebrew<S>5680</S> to us to make<S>6711</S> sport<S>6711</S> of us; he came<S>935</S> in to me to lie<S>7901</S> with me, and I screamed<S>7121</S>.<S>6963</S> <S>1419</S>


text:
"And it came<S>1961</S> about when he heard<S>8085</S> that I raised<S>7311</S> my voice<S>6963</S> and screamed,<S>7121</S> that he left<S>5800</S> his garment<S>899</S> beside<S>681</S> me and fled,<S>5127</S> and went<S>3318</S> outside.<S>2351</S>"


text:
<pb/>So she left<S>5117</S> his garment<S>899</S> beside<S>681</S> her until<S>5704</S> his master<S>113</S> came<S>935</S> home.<S>1004</S>


text:
Then she spoke<S>1696</S> to him with these<S>428</S> words,<S>1697</S> "The Hebrew<S>5680</S> slave,<S>5650</S> whom<S>834</S> you brought<S>935</S> to us, came<S>935</S> in to me to make<S>6711</S> sport<S>6711</S> of me;


text:
and it happened<S>1961</S> as I raised<S>7311</S> my voice<S>6963</S> and screamed,<S>7121</S> that he left<S>5800</S> his garment<S>899</S> beside<S>681</S> me and fled<S>5127</S> outside.<S>2351</S> "


text:
<pb/>Now it came<S>1961</S> about when his master<S>113</S> heard<S>8085</S> the words<S>1697</S> of his wife,<S>802</S> which<S>834</S> she spoke<S>1696</S> to him, saying,<S>559</S> "This<S>1697</S> <S>428</S> is what<S>1697</S> your slave<S>5650</S> did<S>6213</S> to me," that his anger<S>639</S> burned.<S>2734</S>


text:
So Joseph's master<S>113</S> took<S>3947</S> him and put<S>5414</S> him into the jail,<S>1004</S> <S>5470</S> the place<S>4725</S> where<S>834</S> the king's prisoners<S>615</S> were confined;<S>631</S> and he was there<S>8033</S> in the jail.<S>1004</S> <S>5470</S>


text:
<pb/>But the Lord<S>3068</S> was with Joseph<S>3130</S> and extended<S>5186</S> kindness<S>2617</S> to him, and gave<S>5414</S> him favor<S>2580</S> in the sight<S>5869</S> of the chief<S>8269</S> jailer.<S>1004</S> <S>5470</S>


text:
And the chief<S>8269</S> jailer<S>1004</S> <S>5470</S> committed<S>5414</S> to Joseph's charge<S>3027</S> all<S>3605</S> the prisoners<S>615</S> who<S>834</S> were in the jail<S>1004</S>;<S>5470</S> so that whatever<S>3605</S> <S>834</S> was done<S>6213</S> there,<S>8033</S> he was responsible<S>6213</S> [for it.]


text:
The chief<S>8269</S> jailer<S>1004</S> <S>5470</S> did not supervise<S>7200</S> anything<S>3605</S> <S>3972</S> under Joseph's charge<S>3027</S> because<S>834</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> was with him; and whatever<S>834</S> he did,<S>6213</S> the Lord<S>3068</S> made to prosper.<S>6743</S>


text:
<pb/>Then it came<S>1961</S> about after<S>310</S> these<S>428</S> things<S>1697</S> the cupbearer<S>9307</S> and the baker<S>644</S> for the king<S>4428</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> offended<S>2398</S> their lord,<S>113</S> the king<S>4428</S> of Egypt.<S>4714</S>


text:
And Pharaoh<S>6547</S> was furious<S>7107</S> with his two<S>8147</S> officials,<S>5631</S> the chief<S>8269</S> cupbearer<S>9307</S> and the chief<S>8269</S> baker.<S>644</S>


text:
So he put<S>5414</S> them in confinement<S>4929</S> in the house<S>1004</S> of the captain<S>8269</S> of the bodyguard,<S>2876</S> in the jail,<S>1004</S> <S>5470</S> the [same] place<S>4725</S> where<S>834</S> <S>8033</S> Joseph<S>3130</S> was imprisoned.<S>631</S>


text:
And the captain<S>8269</S> of the bodyguard<S>2876</S> put<S>6485</S> Joseph<S>3130</S> in charge<S>6485</S> of them, and he took<S>8334</S> care<S>8334</S> of them; and they were in confinement<S>4929</S> for some<S>3117</S> time.<S>3117</S>


text:
Then the cupbearer<S>9307</S> and the baker<S>644</S> for the king<S>4428</S> of Egypt,<S>4714</S> who<S>834</S> were confined<S>631</S> in jail,<S>1004</S> <S>5470</S> both<S>8147</S> had<S>2492</S> a dream<S>2472</S> the same<S>259</S> night,<S>3915</S> each<S>376</S> man<S>376</S> with his [own] dream<S>2472</S> [and] each<S>376</S> dream<S>2472</S> with its [own] interpretation.<S>6623</S>


text:
When Joseph<S>3130</S> came<S>935</S> to them in the morning<S>1242</S> and observed<S>7200</S> them, behold,<S>2009</S> they were dejected.<S>2196</S>


text:
And he asked<S>7592</S> Pharaoh's officials<S>5631</S> who<S>834</S> were with him in confinement<S>4929</S> in his master's house,<S>1004</S> "Why<S>4069</S> are your faces<S>6440</S> so sad<S>7451</S> today<S>3117</S>?"


text:
Then they said<S>559</S> to him, "We have had<S>2492</S> a dream<S>2472</S> and there<S>369</S> is no<S>369</S> one<S>369</S> to interpret<S>6622</S> it." Then Joseph<S>3130</S> said<S>559</S> to them, "Do not interpretations<S>6623</S> belong to God<S>430</S>? Tell<S>5608</S> [it] to me, please.<S>4994</S>"


text:
<pb/>So the chief<S>8269</S> cupbearer<S>9307</S> told<S>5608</S> his dream<S>2472</S> to Joseph,<S>3130</S> and said<S>559</S> to him, "In my dream,<S>2472</S> behold,<S>2009</S> [there was] a vine<S>1612</S> in front<S>6440</S> of me;


text:
and on the vine<S>1612</S> [were] three<S>7969</S> branches.<S>8299</S> And as it was budding,<S>6524</S> its blossoms<S>9340</S> came<S>5927</S> out, [and] its clusters<S>811</S> produced<S>1310</S> ripe<S>1310</S> grapes.<S>6025</S>


text:
"Now Pharaoh's cup<S>3563</S> was in my hand;<S>3027</S> so I took<S>3947</S> the grapes<S>6025</S> and squeezed<S>7818</S> them into Pharaoh's cup,<S>3563</S> and I put<S>5414</S> the cup<S>3563</S> into Pharaoh's hand.<S>3709</S>"


text:
<pb/>Then Joseph<S>3130</S> said<S>559</S> to him, "This<S>2088</S> is the interpretation<S>6623</S> of it: the three<S>7969</S> branches<S>8299</S> are three<S>7969</S> days;<S>3117</S>


text:
within three<S>7969</S> more<S>5750</S> days<S>3117</S> Pharaoh<S>6547</S> will lift<S>5375</S> up your head<S>7218</S> and restore<S>7725</S> you to your office;<S>3653</S> and you will put<S>5414</S> Pharaoh's cup<S>3563</S> into his hand<S>3027</S> according to your former<S>7223</S> custom<S>4941</S> when<S>834</S> you were his cupbearer.<S>9307</S>

"Only<S>3588</S> <S>518</S> keep<S>2142</S> me in mind when<S>9201</S> it goes<S>3190</S> well<S>3190</S> with you, and please<S>4994</S> do<S>6213</S> me a kindness<S>2617</S> by mentioning<S>2142</S> me to Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> and get<S>3318</S> me out of this<S>2088</S> house.<S>1004</S>

<pb/>When the chief<S>8269</S> baker<S>644</S> saw<S>7200</S> that he had interpreted<S>6622</S> favorably,<S>2896</S> he said<S>559</S> to Joseph,<S>3130</S> "I also<S>637</S> [saw] in my dream,<S>2472</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> [there were] three<S>7969</S> baskets<S>5536</S> of white<S>2751</S> bread<S>2751</S> on my head;<S>7218</S>


text:
and in the top<S>5945</S> basket<S>5536</S> [there were] some<S>4480</S> of all<S>3605</S> sorts of baked<S>644</S> food<S>3978</S> for Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> and the birds<S>5775</S> were eating<S>398</S> them out of the basket<S>5536</S> on my head.<S>7218</S> "


text:
<pb/>Then Joseph<S>3130</S> answered<S>6030</S> and said,<S>559</S> "This<S>2088</S> is its interpretation:<S>6623</S> the three<S>7969</S> baskets<S>5536</S> are three<S>7969</S> days;<S>3117</S>


text:
within three<S>7969</S> more<S>5750</S> days<S>3117</S> Pharaoh<S>6547</S> will lift<S>5375</S> up your head<S>7218</S> from you and will hang<S>8518</S> you on a tree;<S>6086</S> and the birds<S>5775</S> will eat<S>398</S> your flesh<S>1320</S> off<S>4480</S> <S>5921</S> you. "


text:
<pb/>Thus it came<S>1961</S> about on the third<S>7992</S> day,<S>3117</S> [which was] Pharaoh's birthday,<S>3205</S> <S>3117</S> that he made<S>6213</S> a feast<S>4960</S> for all<S>3605</S> his servants;<S>5650</S> and he lifted<S>5375</S> up the head<S>7218</S> of the chief<S>8269</S> cupbearer<S>9307</S> and the head<S>7218</S> of the chief<S>8269</S> baker<S>644</S> among<S>8432</S> his servants.<S>5650</S>


text:
And he restored<S>7725</S> the chief<S>8269</S> cupbearer<S>9307</S> to his office,<S>4945</S> and he put<S>5414</S> the cup<S>3563</S> into Pharaoh's hand;<S>3709</S>


text:
but he hanged<S>8518</S> the chief<S>8269</S> baker,<S>644</S> just<S>9201</S> as Joseph<S>3130</S> had interpreted<S>6622</S> to them.


text:
Yet the chief<S>8269</S> cupbearer<S>9307</S> did not remember<S>2142</S> Joseph,<S>3130</S> but forgot<S>7911</S> him.

<pb/>Now it happened<S>1961</S> at the end<S>7093</S> of two full<S>3117</S> years<S>8141</S> that Pharaoh<S>6547</S> had<S>2492</S> a dream,<S>2492</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> he was standing<S>5975</S> by the Nile.<S>2975</S>

And lo,<S>2009</S> from the Nile<S>2975</S> there came<S>5927</S> up seven<S>7651</S> cows,<S>6510</S> sleek<S>3303</S> and fat;<S>1277</S> and they grazed<S>7462</S> in the marsh<S>260</S> grass.<S>260</S>

Then behold,<S>2009</S> seven<S>7651</S> other<S>312</S> cows<S>6510</S> came<S>5927</S> up after<S>310</S> them from the Nile,<S>2975</S> ugly<S>7451</S> and gaunt,<S>1851</S> <S>1320</S> and they stood<S>5975</S> by the [other] cows<S>6510</S> on the bank<S>8193</S> of the Nile.<S>2975</S>


text:
And the ugly<S>7451</S> and gaunt<S>1851</S> <S>1320</S> cows<S>6510</S> ate<S>398</S> up the seven<S>7651</S> sleek<S>3303</S> and fat<S>1277</S> cows.<S>6510</S> Then Pharaoh<S>6547</S> awoke.<S>3364</S>


text:
<pb/>And he fell<S>3462</S> asleep<S>3462</S> and dreamed<S>2492</S> a second<S>8145</S> time;<S>8145</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> seven<S>7651</S> ears<S>7641</S> of grain<S>7641</S> came<S>5927</S> up on a single<S>259</S> stalk,<S>7070</S> plump<S>1277</S> and good.<S>2896</S>


text:
Then behold,<S>2009</S> seven<S>7651</S> ears,<S>7641</S> thin<S>1851</S> and scorched<S>7710</S> by the east<S>6921</S> wind,<S>6921</S> sprouted<S>6779</S> up after<S>310</S> them.


text:
And the thin<S>1851</S> ears<S>7641</S> swallowed<S>1104</S> up the seven<S>7651</S> plump<S>1277</S> and full<S>4392</S> ears.<S>7641</S> Then Pharaoh<S>6547</S> awoke,<S>3364</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> [it was] a dream.<S>2472</S>


text:
<pb/>Now it came<S>1961</S> about in the morning<S>1242</S> that his spirit<S>7307</S> was troubled,<S>6470</S> so he sent<S>7971</S> and called<S>7121</S> for all<S>3605</S> the magicians<S>2748</S> of Egypt,<S>4714</S> and all<S>3605</S> its wise<S>2450</S> men.<S>2450</S> And Pharaoh<S>6547</S> told<S>5608</S> them his dreams,<S>2472</S> but there<S>369</S> was no<S>369</S> one<S>369</S> who could interpret<S>6622</S> them to Pharaoh.<S>6547</S>


text:
Then the chief<S>8269</S> cupbearer<S>9307</S> spoke<S>1696</S> to Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> saying,<S>559</S> "I would make mention<S>2142</S> today<S>3117</S> of my [own] offenses.<S>2399</S>


text:
"Pharaoh<S>6547</S> was furious<S>7107</S> with his servants,<S>5650</S> and he put<S>5414</S> me in confinement<S>4929</S> in the house<S>1004</S> of the captain<S>8269</S> of the bodyguard,<S>2876</S> [both] me and the chief<S>8269</S> baker.<S>644</S>

"Now a Hebrew<S>5680</S> youth<S>5288</S> [was] with us there,<S>8033</S> a servant<S>5650</S> of the captain<S>8269</S> of the bodyguard,<S>2876</S> and we related<S>5608</S> [them] to him, and he interpreted<S>6622</S> our dreams<S>2472</S> for us.

"And it came<S>1961</S> about that just<S>9201</S> as he interpreted<S>6622</S> for us, so<S>3651</S> it happened;<S>1961</S> he restored<S>7725</S> me in my office,<S>3653</S> but he hanged<S>8518</S> him."


text:
<pb/>Then Pharaoh<S>6547</S> sent<S>7971</S> and called<S>7121</S> for Joseph,<S>3130</S> and they hurriedly<S>7323</S> brought<S>7323</S> him out of the dungeon;<S>953</S> and when he had shaved<S>1548</S> himself and changed<S>2498</S> his clothes,<S>8071</S> he came<S>935</S> to Pharaoh.<S>6547</S>


text:

Joseph<S>3130</S> then answered<S>6030</S> Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> saying,<S>559</S> "It is not in me; God<S>430</S> will give<S>6030</S> Pharaoh<S>6547</S> a favorable<S>7965</S> answer.<S>6030</S>"

So he gathered<S>6908</S> all<S>3605</S> the food<S>400</S> of [these] seven<S>7651</S> years<S>8141</S> which<S>834</S> occurred<S>1961</S> in the land<S>776</S> of Egypt,<S>4714</S> and placed<S>5414</S> the food<S>400</S> in the cities;<S>5892</S> he placed<S>5414</S> in every city<S>5892</S> the food<S>400</S> from its own surrounding<S>5439</S> fields.<S>7704</S>


text:
Thus Joseph<S>3130</S> stored<S>6651</S> up grain<S>1250</S> in great<S>3966</S> abundance<S>3966</S> like the sand<S>2344</S> of the sea,<S>3220</S> until<S>5704</S> <S>3588</S> he stopped<S>2308</S> measuring<S>5608</S> [it,] for it was beyond<S>369</S> measure.<S>4557</S>


text:
<pb/>Now before<S>2962</S> the year<S>8141</S> of famine<S>7458</S> came,<S>935</S> two<S>8147</S> sons<S>1121</S> were born<S>3205</S> to Joseph,<S>3130</S> whom<S>834</S> Asenath,<S>621</S> the daughter<S>1323</S> of Potiphera<S>6319</S> priest<S>3548</S> of On,<S>204</S> bore<S>3205</S> to him.


text:
And Joseph<S>3130</S> named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> the first-born Manasseh,<S>4519</S> "For," [he said,] "God<S>430</S> has made me forget<S>5382</S> all<S>3605</S> my trouble<S>5999</S> and all<S>3605</S> my father's household.<S>1004</S>"


text:
And he named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> the second<S>8145</S> Ephraim,<S>669</S> "For," [he said,] "God<S>430</S> has made<S>6509</S> me fruitful<S>6509</S> in the land<S>776</S> of my affliction.<S>6040</S>"


text:
<pb/>When the seven<S>7651</S> years<S>8141</S> of plenty<S>7647</S> which<S>834</S> had been<S>1961</S> in the land<S>776</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> came<S>3615</S> to an end,<S>3615</S>


text:
and the seven<S>7651</S> years<S>8141</S> of famine<S>7458</S> began<S>2490</S> to come,<S>935</S> just<S>9201</S> as Joseph<S>3130</S> had said,<S>559</S> then there was famine<S>7458</S> in all<S>3605</S> the lands;<S>776</S> but in all<S>3605</S> the land<S>776</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> there was bread.<S>3899</S>


text:
So when all<S>3605</S> the land<S>776</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> was famished,<S>7456</S> the people<S>5971</S> cried<S>6817</S> out to Pharaoh<S>6547</S> for bread;<S>3899</S> and Pharaoh<S>6547</S> said<S>559</S> to all<S>3605</S> the Egyptians,<S>4714</S> "Go<S>1980</S> to Joseph;<S>3130</S> whatever<S>834</S> he says<S>559</S> to you, you shall do.<S>6213</S>"


text:
<pb/>When the famine<S>7458</S> was [spread] over<S>5921</S> all<S>3605</S> the face<S>6440</S> of the earth,<S>776</S> then Joseph<S>3130</S> opened<S>6605</S> all<S>3605</S> the storehouses,<S>834</S> and sold<S>7666</S> to the Egyptians;<S>4714</S> and the famine<S>7458</S> was severe<S>2388</S> in the land<S>776</S> of Egypt.<S>4714</S>


text:
And [the people of] all<S>3605</S> the earth<S>776</S> came<S>935</S> to Egypt<S>4714</S> to buy<S>7666</S> grain<S>7666</S> from Joseph,<S>3130</S> because<S>3588</S> the famine<S>7458</S> was severe<S>2388</S> in all<S>3605</S> the earth.<S>776</S>


text:
<pb/>Now Jacob<S>3290</S> saw<S>7200</S> that there<S>3426</S> was grain<S>7668</S> in Egypt,<S>4714</S> and Jacob<S>3290</S> said<S>559</S> to his sons,<S>1121</S> "Why<S>4100</S> are you staring<S>7200</S> at one another?"


text:
And he said,<S>559</S> "Behold,<S>2009</S> I have heard<S>8085</S> that there<S>3426</S> is grain<S>7668</S> in Egypt;<S>4714</S> go<S>3381</S> down<S>3381</S> there<S>8033</S> and buy<S>7666</S> [some] for us from that place,<S>8033</S> so that we may live<S>2421</S> and not die.<S>4191</S>"


text:
<pb/>Then ten<S>6235</S> brothers<S>251</S> of Joseph<S>3130</S> went<S>3381</S> down<S>3381</S> to buy<S>7666</S> grain<S>1250</S> from Egypt.<S>4714</S>


text:
But Jacob<S>3290</S> did not send<S>7971</S> Joseph's brother<S>251</S> Benjamin<S>1144</S> with his brothers,<S>251</S> for he said,<S>559</S> "I am afraid that harm<S>611</S> may befall<S>7122</S> him."


text:
So the sons<S>1121</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> came<S>935</S> to buy<S>7666</S> grain<S>7666</S> among<S>8432</S> those who were coming,<S>935</S> for the famine<S>7458</S> was in the land<S>776</S> of Canaan<S>3667</S> [also.]


text:
<pb/>Now Joseph<S>3130</S> was the ruler<S>7989</S> over<S>5921</S> the land;<S>776</S> he was the one who sold<S>7666</S> to all<S>3605</S> the people<S>5971</S> of the land.<S>776</S> And Joseph's brothers<S>251</S> came<S>935</S> and bowed<S>7812</S> down<S>7812</S> to him with [their] faces<S>639</S> to the ground.<S>776</S>


text:
When Joseph<S>3130</S> saw<S>7200</S> his brothers<S>251</S> he recognized<S>5234</S> them, but he disguised<S>9330</S> himself to them and spoke<S>1696</S> to them harshly.<S>7186</S> And he said<S>559</S> to them, "Where<S>370</S> have you come<S>935</S> from?" And they said,<S>559</S> "From the land<S>776</S> of Canaan,<S>3667</S> to buy<S>7666</S> food.<S>400</S>"


text:
<pb/>But Joseph<S>3130</S> had recognized<S>5234</S> his brothers,<S>251</S> although they did not recognize<S>5234</S> him.


text:
And Joseph<S>3130</S> remembered<S>2142</S> the dreams<S>2472</S> which<S>834</S> he had<S>2492</S> about them, and said<S>559</S> to them, "You are spies;<S>7270</S> you have come<S>935</S> to look<S>7200</S> at the undefended<S>6172</S> parts<S>6172</S> of our land.<S>776</S>"


text:
<pb/>Then they said<S>559</S> to him, "No,<S>3808</S> my lord,<S>113</S> but your servants<S>5650</S> have come<S>935</S> to buy<S>7666</S> food.<S>400</S>


text:
"We are all<S>3605</S> sons<S>1121</S> of one<S>259</S> man;<S>376</S> we are honest<S>9210</S> men,<S>9210</S> your servants<S>5650</S> are not spies.<S>7270</S>"


text:
<pb/>Yet he said<S>559</S> to them, "No,<S>3808</S> but you have come<S>935</S> to look<S>7200</S> at the undefended<S>6172</S> parts<S>6172</S> of our land!<S>776</S>"


text:
But they said,<S>559</S> "Your servants<S>5650</S> are twelve<S>8147</S> <S>6240</S> brothers<S>251</S> [in all,] the sons<S>1121</S> of one<S>259</S> man<S>376</S> in the land<S>776</S> of Canaan;<S>3667</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> the youngest<S>9512</S> is with our father today,<S>1</S> and one<S>3117</S> is no<S>259</S> more.<S>369</S>"


text:
<pb/>And Joseph<S>3130</S> said<S>559</S> to them, "It is as I said<S>1696</S> to you, you are spies;<S>7270</S>


text:
by this<S>2088</S> you will be tested:<S>974</S> by the life<S>2416</S> of Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> you shall not go<S>3318</S> from this<S>2088</S> place unless<S>3588</S> <S>518</S> your youngest<S>9512</S> brother<S>251</S> comes<S>935</S> here!<S>2008</S>


text:
"Send<S>7971</S> one<S>259</S> of you that he may get<S>3947</S> your brother,<S>251</S> while you remain confined,<S>631</S> that your words<S>1697</S> may be tested,<S>974</S> whether there is truth<S>571</S> in you. But if<S>518</S> not, by the life<S>2416</S> of Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> surely<S>3588</S> you are spies.<S>7270</S>"


text:
So he put<S>622</S> them all<S>622</S> together<S>622</S> in prison<S>4929</S> for three<S>7969</S> days.<S>3117</S>


text:
Now Joseph<S>3130</S> said<S>559</S> to them on the third<S>7992</S> day,<S>3117</S> "Do<S>6213</S> this<S>2088</S> and live,<S>2421</S> for I fear<S>3372</S> God: <S>430</S>

if<S>518</S> you are honest<S>9210</S> men,<S>9210</S> let one<S>259</S> of your brothers<S>251</S> be confined<S>631</S> in your prison<S>1004</S>;<S>4929</S> but as for [the rest of] you, go,<S>1980</S> carry<S>935</S> grain<S>7668</S> for the famine<S>7459</S> of your households,<S>1004</S>


text:
and bring<S>935</S> your youngest<S>9512</S> brother<S>251</S> to me, so your words<S>1697</S> may be verified,<S>539</S> and you will not die.<S>4191</S> "And they did<S>6213</S> so.<S>3651</S>


text:
<pb/>Then they said<S>559</S> to one<S>376</S> another,<S>251</S> "Truly<S>61</S> we are guilty<S>818</S> concerning<S>5921</S> our brother,<S>251</S> because<S>834</S> we saw<S>7200</S> the distress<S>6869</S> of his soul<S>5315</S> when he pleaded<S>2603</S> with us, yet we would not listen;<S>8085</S> therefore<S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> this<S>2088</S> distress<S>6869</S> has come<S>935</S> upon us."


text:
And Reuben<S>7205</S> answered<S>6030</S> them, saying,<S>559</S> "Did I not tell<S>559</S> you, 'Do not sin<S>2398</S> against the boy<S>3206</S>'; and you would not listen<S>8085</S>? Now<S>1571</S> <S>2009</S> comes<S>1875</S> the reckoning<S>1875</S> for his blood.<S>1818</S>"


text:
They did not know,<S>3045</S> however, that Joseph<S>3130</S> understood,<S>8085</S> for there was an interpreter<S>9238</S> between<S>996</S> them.


text:
And he turned<S>5437</S> away<S>5437</S> from them and wept.<S>1058</S> But when he returned<S>7725</S> to them and spoke<S>1696</S> to them, he took<S>3947</S> Simeon<S>8095</S> from them and bound<S>631</S> him before their eyes.<S>5869</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Joseph<S>3130</S> gave<S>6680</S> orders<S>6680</S> to fill<S>4390</S> their bags<S>3627</S> with grain<S>1250</S> and to restore<S>7725</S> every<S>376</S> man's money<S>3701</S> in his sack,<S>8242</S> and to give<S>5414</S> them provisions<S>6720</S> for the journey.<S>1870</S> And thus<S>3651</S> it was done<S>6213</S> for them.


text:
So they loaded<S>5375</S> their donkeys<S>2543</S> with their grain,<S>7668</S> and departed<S>1980</S> from there.<S>8033</S>


text:
<pb/>And as one<S>259</S> [of them] opened<S>6605</S> his sack<S>8242</S> to give<S>5414</S> his donkey<S>2543</S> fodder<S>4554</S> at the lodging<S>4411</S> place,<S>4411</S> he saw<S>7200</S> his money;<S>3701</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> it was in the mouth<S>6310</S> of his sack.<S>572</S>


text:
Then he said<S>559</S> to his brothers,<S>251</S> "My money<S>3701</S> has been returned,<S>7725</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> it is even<S>1571</S> in my sack.<S>572</S>" And their hearts<S>3820</S> sank,<S>3318</S> and they [turned] trembling<S>2729</S> to one<S>376</S> another,<S>251</S> saying,<S>559</S> "What<S>4100</S> is this<S>2088</S> that God<S>430</S> has done<S>6213</S> to us?"


text:
<pb/>When they came<S>935</S> to their father Jacob<S>1</S> in the land<S>3290</S> of Canaan,<S>776</S> they told<S>3667</S> him all<S>5046</S> that had happened<S>3605</S> to them, saying,<S>7136</S>


text:
"The man,<S>376</S> the lord<S>113</S> of the land,<S>776</S> spoke<S>1696</S> harshly<S>7186</S> with us, and took<S>5414</S> us for spies<S>7270</S> of the country.<S>776</S>


text:
"But we said<S>559</S> to him, 'We are honest<S>9210</S> men;<S>9210</S> we are not spies.<S>7270</S>


text:
'We are twelve<S>8147</S> <S>6240</S> brothers,<S>251</S> sons<S>1121</S> of our father; one<S>1</S> is no<S>259</S> more,<S>369</S> and the youngest<S>369</S> is with our father today<S>9512</S> in the land<S>1</S> of Canaan.<S>3117</S>'


text:
<pb/>"And the man,<S>376</S> the lord<S>113</S> of the land,<S>776</S> said<S>559</S> to us, 'By this<S>2088</S> I shall know<S>3045</S> that you are honest<S>9210</S> men:<S>9210</S> leave<S>5117</S> one<S>259</S> of your brothers<S>251</S> with me and take<S>3947</S> [grain for] the famine<S>7459</S> of your households,<S>1004</S> and go.<S>1980</S>


text:
'But bring<S>935</S> your youngest<S>9512</S> brother<S>251</S> to me that I may know<S>3045</S> that you are not spies,<S>7270</S> but honest<S>9210</S> men.<S>9210</S> I will give<S>5414</S> your brother<S>251</S> to you, and you may trade<S>5503</S> in the land.<S>776</S>' "


text:
<pb/>Now it came<S>1961</S> about as they were emptying<S>9553</S> their sacks,<S>8242</S> that behold,<S>2009</S> every<S>376</S> man's bundle<S>6872</S> of money<S>3701</S> [was] in his sack;<S>8242</S> and when they and their father saw<S>1</S> their bundles<S>7200</S> of money,<S>6872</S> they were dismayed.<S>3701</S>


text:
And their father Jacob<S>1</S> said<S>3290</S> to them, "You have bereaved<S>559</S> me of my children:<S>7921</S> Joseph<S>7921</S> is no<S>3130</S> more,<S>369</S> and Simeon<S>369</S> is no<S>8095</S> more,<S>369</S> and you would take<S>369</S> Benjamin;<S>3947</S> all<S>1144</S> these things are against<S>3605</S> me."


text:
<pb/>Then Reuben<S>7205</S> spoke<S>559</S> to his father, saying,<S>1</S> "You may put<S>559</S> my two<S>4191</S> sons<S>8147</S> to death<S>1121</S> if<S>4191</S> I do not bring<S>518</S> him [back] to you; put<S>935</S> him in my care,<S>5414</S> and I will return<S>3027</S> him to you."


text:
But Jacob said,<S>559</S> "My son<S>1121</S> shall not go<S>3381</S> down<S>3381</S> with you; for his brother<S>251</S> is dead,<S>4191</S> and he alone<S>905</S> is left.<S>7604</S> If harm<S>611</S> should befall<S>7122</S> him on the journey<S>1870</S> you are taking,<S>1980</S> then you will bring<S>3381</S> my gray<S>7872</S> hair<S>7872</S> down<S>3381</S> to Sheol<S>7585</S> in sorrow.<S>3015</S>"


text:
So it came<S>1961</S> about when<S>9201</S> they had finished<S>3615</S> eating<S>398</S> the grain<S>7668</S> which<S>834</S> they had brought<S>935</S> from Egypt,<S>4714</S> that their father said<S>1</S> to them, "Go<S>559</S> back,<S>7725</S> buy<S>7725</S> us a little<S>7666</S> food.<S>4592</S>"


text:
<pb/>Judah<S>3063</S> spoke<S>559</S> to him, however, saying,<S>559</S> "The man<S>376</S> solemnly<S>5749</S> warned<S>5749</S> us, 'You shall not see<S>7200</S> my face<S>6440</S> unless<S>1115</S> your brother<S>251</S> is with you.'


text:
"If<S>518</S> you send<S>7971</S> our brother<S>251</S> with us, we will go<S>3381</S> down<S>3381</S> and buy<S>7666</S> you food.<S>400</S>


text:
"But if<S>518</S> you do not send<S>7971</S> [him,] we will not go<S>3381</S> down;<S>3381</S> for the man<S>376</S> said<S>559</S> to us, 'You shall not see<S>7200</S> my face<S>6440</S> unless<S>1115</S> your brother<S>251</S> is with you.'"


text:
<pb/>Then Israel<S>3478</S> said,<S>559</S> "Why<S>4100</S> did you treat<S>7489</S> me so badly<S>7489</S> by telling<S>5046</S> the man<S>376</S> whether you still<S>5750</S> had [another] brother<S>251</S>?"


text:
<pb/>But they said,<S>559</S> "The man<S>376</S> questioned<S>7592</S> particularly<S>7592</S> about us and our relatives,<S>4138</S> saying,<S>559</S> 'Is your father still<S>1</S> alive<S>5750</S>?

So we answered<S>251</S> his questions.<S>5046</S> Could we possibly<S>1697</S> know<S>3045</S> that he would say,<S>3045</S> 'Bring<S>559</S> your brother<S>3381</S> down<S>251</S>'?"


text:
<pb/>And Judah<S>3063</S> said<S>559</S> to his father Israel,<S>1</S> "Send<S>3478</S> the lad<S>7971</S> with me, and we will arise<S>5288</S> and go,<S>6965</S> that we may live<S>1980</S> and not die,<S>2421</S> we as well<S>4191</S> as you and our little<S>1571</S> ones.<S>2945</S>

<pb/>Then their father Israel<S>1</S> said<S>3478</S> to them, "If<S>559</S> [it must be] so,<S>518</S> then<S>3651</S> do<S>645</S> this:<S>6213</S> take<S>2088</S> some<S>3947</S> of the best<S>4480</S> products<S>2173</S> of the land<S>2173</S> in your bags,<S>776</S> and carry<S>3627</S> down<S>3381</S> to the man<S>3381</S> as a present,<S>376</S> a little<S>4503</S> balm<S>4592</S> and a little<S>6875</S> honey,<S>4592</S> aromatic<S>1706</S> gum<S>5219</S> and myrrh,<S>5219</S> pistachio<S>3910</S> nuts<S>992</S> and almonds.<S>992</S>

<pb/>So the men<S>376</S> took<S>3947</S> this<S>2088</S> present,<S>4503</S> and they took<S>3947</S> double<S>4932</S> [the] money<S>3701</S> in their hand,<S>3027</S> and Benjamin;<S>1144</S> then they arose<S>6965</S> and went<S>3381</S> down<S>3381</S> to Egypt<S>4714</S> and stood<S>5975</S> before<S>6440</S> Joseph.<S>3130</S>


text:
When Joseph<S>3130</S> saw<S>7200</S> Benjamin<S>1144</S> with them, he said<S>559</S> to his house<S>1004</S> steward,<S>834</S> <S>5921</S> "Bring<S>935</S> the men<S>376</S> into the house,<S>1004</S> and slay<S>2873</S> [an animal] and make<S>3559</S> ready;<S>3559</S> for the men<S>376</S> are to dine<S>398</S> with me at noon.<S>6672</S>"

So the man<S>376</S> did<S>6213</S> as Joseph<S>3130</S> said,<S>559</S> and brought<S>935</S> the men<S>376</S> to Joseph's house.<S>1004</S>


text:
<pb/>Now the men<S>376</S> were afraid,<S>3372</S> because<S>3588</S> they were brought<S>935</S> to Joseph's house;<S>1004</S> and they said,<S>559</S> "[It is] because<S>5921</S> <S>1697</S> of the money<S>3701</S> that was returned<S>7725</S> in our sacks<S>572</S> the first<S>8462</S> time<S>8462</S> that we are being brought<S>935</S> in, that he may seek<S>1556</S> occasion<S>1556</S> against<S>5921</S> us and fall<S>5307</S> upon us, and take<S>3947</S> us for slaves<S>5650</S> with our donkeys.<S>2543</S>"


text:
So they came<S>5066</S> near<S>5066</S> to Joseph's house<S>1004</S> steward<S>376</S>,<S>834</S> <S>5921</S> and spoke<S>1696</S> to him at the entrance<S>6607</S> of the house,<S>1004</S>


text:
and said,<S>559</S> "Oh,<S>994</S> my lord,<S>113</S> we indeed<S>3381</S> came<S>3381</S> down<S>3381</S> the first<S>8462</S> time<S>8462</S> to buy<S>7666</S> food,<S>400</S>


text:
and it came<S>1961</S> about when<S>3588</S> we came<S>935</S> to the lodging<S>4411</S> place,<S>4411</S> that we opened<S>6605</S> our sacks,<S>572</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> each<S>376</S> man's money<S>3701</S> was in the mouth<S>6310</S> of his sack,<S>572</S> our money<S>3701</S> in full.<S>4948</S> So we have brought<S>7725</S> it back<S>7725</S> in our hand.<S>3027</S>

"We have also brought<S>3381</S> down<S>3381</S> other<S>312</S> money<S>3701</S> in our hand<S>3027</S> to buy<S>7666</S> food;<S>400</S> we do not know<S>3045</S> who<S>4310</S> put<S>7760</S> our money<S>3701</S> in our sacks.<S>572</S>"


text:
<pb/>And he said,<S>559</S> "Be at ease,<S>7965</S> do not be afraid.<S>3372</S> Your God<S>430</S> and the God<S>430</S> of your father has given<S>1</S> you treasure<S>5414</S> in your sacks;<S>4301</S> I had<S>572</S> your money.<S>935</S>" Then he brought<S>3701</S> Simeon<S>3318</S> out to them.


text:
<pb/>Then the man<S>376</S> brought<S>935</S> the men<S>376</S> into Joseph's house<S>1004</S> and gave<S>5414</S> them water,<S>4325</S> and they washed<S>7364</S> their feet;<S>7272</S> and he gave<S>5414</S> their donkeys<S>2543</S> fodder.<S>4554</S>


text:
So they prepared<S>3559</S> the present<S>4503</S> for Joseph's coming<S>935</S> at noon;<S>6672</S> for they had heard<S>8085</S> that they were to eat<S>398</S> a meal<S>3899</S> there.<S>8033</S>


text:
<pb/>When Joseph<S>3130</S> came<S>935</S> home,<S>1004</S> they brought<S>935</S> into the house<S>1004</S> to him the present<S>4503</S> which<S>834</S> was in their hand<S>3027</S> and bowed<S>7812</S> to the ground<S>776</S> before him.


text:
Then he asked<S>7592</S> them about their welfare,<S>7965</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Is your old<S>2205</S> father well,<S>1</S> of whom<S>7965</S> you spoke<S>834</S>? Is he still<S>559</S> alive<S>5750</S>?"


text:
And they said,<S>559</S> "Your servant<S>5650</S> our father is well;<S>1</S> he is still<S>7965</S> alive.<S>5750</S>" And they bowed<S>2416</S> down<S>6915</S> in homage.<S>7812</S>


text:
<pb/>As he lifted<S>5375</S> his eyes<S>5869</S> and saw<S>7200</S> his brother<S>251</S> Benjamin,<S>1144</S> his mother's son,<S>1121</S> he said,<S>559</S> "Is this<S>2088</S> your youngest<S>9512</S> brother,<S>251</S> of whom<S>834</S> you spoke<S>559</S> to me?" And he said,<S>559</S> "May God<S>430</S> be gracious<S>2603</S> to you, my son.<S>1121</S>"


text:
And Joseph<S>3130</S> hurried<S>4116</S> [out] for he was deeply<S>7356</S> stirred<S>3648</S> over<S>413</S> his brother,<S>251</S> and he sought<S>1245</S> [a place] to weep;<S>1058</S> and he entered<S>935</S> his chamber<S>2315</S> and wept<S>1058</S> there.<S>8033</S>


text:
<pb/>Then he washed<S>7364</S> his face,<S>6440</S> and came<S>3318</S> out; and he controlled<S>662</S> himself and said,<S>559</S> "Serve<S>7760</S> the meal.<S>3899</S>"


text:
So they served<S>7760</S> him by himself,<S>905</S> and them by themselves,<S>905</S> and the Egyptians,<S>4713</S> who ate<S>398</S> with him, by themselves;<S>905</S> because<S>3588</S> the Egyptians<S>4713</S> could<S>3201</S> not eat<S>398</S> bread<S>3899</S> with the Hebrews,<S>5680</S> for that is loathsome<S>8441</S> to the Egyptians.<S>4714</S>


text:
Now they were seated<S>3427</S> before<S>6440</S> him, the first-born according to his birthright<S>1062</S> and the youngest<S>6810</S> according to his youth,<S>6812</S> and the men<S>376</S> looked<S>8539</S> at one<S>376</S> another<S>7453</S> in astonishment.<S>8539</S>


text:
And he took<S>5375</S> portions<S>4864</S> to them from his own table;<S>6440</S> but Benjamin's portion<S>4864</S> was five<S>2568</S> times<S>3027</S> as much<S>7235</S> as any<S>3605</S> of theirs. So they feasted<S>8354</S> and drank<S>7937</S> freely<S>7937</S> with him.


text:
<pb/>Then he commanded<S>6680</S> his house<S>1004</S> steward,<S>834</S> <S>5921</S> saying,<S>559</S> "Fill<S>4390</S> the men's sacks<S>572</S> with food,<S>400</S> as much<S>9201</S> as they can<S>3201</S> carry,<S>5375</S> and put<S>7760</S> each<S>376</S> man's money<S>3701</S> in the mouth<S>6310</S> of his sack.<S>572</S>


text:
"And put<S>7760</S> my cup,<S>1375</S> the silver<S>3701</S> cup,<S>1375</S> in the mouth<S>6310</S> of the sack<S>572</S> of the youngest,<S>9512</S> and his money<S>3701</S> for the grain.<S>7668</S>" And he did<S>6213</S> as Joseph<S>3130</S> had told<S>1696</S> [him].


text:
<pb/>As soon<S>1242</S> as it was light,<S>215</S> the men<S>376</S> were sent<S>7971</S> away,<S>7971</S> they with their donkeys.<S>2543</S>


text:
They had [just] gone<S>3318</S> out of the city,<S>5892</S> [and] were not far<S>7368</S> off, when Joseph<S>3130</S> said<S>559</S> to his house<S>1004</S> steward,<S>834</S> <S>5921</S> "Up, follow<S>7291</S> <S>310</S> the men;<S>376</S> and when you overtake<S>5381</S> them, say<S>559</S> to them, 'Why<S>4100</S> have you repaid<S>9608</S> evil<S>9567</S> for good<S>9186</S>?


text:
'Is not this<S>2088</S> the one from which<S>834</S> my lord<S>113</S> drinks,<S>8354</S> and which he indeed<S>5172</S> uses<S>5172</S> for divination<S>5172</S>? You have done<S>7489</S> wrong<S>7489</S> in doing<S>6213</S> this.<S>834</S>' "


text:
And they said<S>559</S> to him, "Why<S>4100</S> does my lord<S>113</S> speak<S>1696</S> such words<S>1697</S> as these<S>428</S>? Far<S>2486</S> be it from your servants<S>5650</S> to do<S>6213</S> such<S>2088</S> a thing.<S>1697</S>


text:
"Behold,<S>2005</S> the money<S>3701</S> which<S>834</S> we found<S>4672</S> in the mouth<S>6310</S> of our sacks<S>572</S> we have brought<S>7725</S> back<S>7725</S> to you from the land<S>776</S> of Canaan.<S>3667</S> How<S>349</S> then could we steal<S>1589</S> silver<S>3701</S> or<S>176</S> gold<S>2091</S> from your lord's house<S>1004</S>?


text:
"With whomever<S>834</S> of your servants<S>5650</S> it is found,<S>4672</S> let him die,<S>4191</S> and we also<S>1571</S> will be my lord's slaves.<S>5650</S>"


text:
<pb/>So he said,<S>559</S> "Now<S>6258</S> let it also<S>1571</S> be according to your words;<S>1697</S> he with whom<S>834</S> it is found<S>4672</S> shall be my slave,<S>5650</S> and [the rest of] you shall be innocent.<S>9345</S>"


text:
Then they hurried,<S>4116</S> each<S>376</S> man<S>376</S> lowered<S>3381</S> his sack<S>572</S> to the ground,<S>776</S> and each<S>376</S> man<S>376</S> opened<S>6605</S> his sack.<S>572</S>


text:
And he searched,<S>2664</S> beginning<S>2490</S> with the oldest<S>1419</S> and ending<S>3615</S> with the youngest,<S>9512</S> and the cup<S>1375</S> was found<S>4672</S> in Benjamin's sack.<S>572</S>


text:
Then they tore<S>7167</S> their clothes,<S>8071</S> and when each<S>376</S> man<S>376</S> loaded<S>6006</S> his donkey,<S>2543</S> they returned<S>7725</S> to the city.<S>5892</S>


text:
<pb/>When Judah<S>3063</S> and his brothers<S>251</S> came<S>935</S> to Joseph's house,<S>1004</S> he was still<S>5750</S> there,<S>8033</S> and they fell<S>5307</S> to the ground<S>776</S> before<S>6440</S> him.


text:
And Joseph<S>3130</S> said<S>559</S> to them, "What<S>4100</S> is this<S>2088</S> deed<S>4639</S> that you have done<S>6213</S>? Do you not know<S>3045</S> that such<S>3644</S> a man<S>376</S> as I can indeed<S>5172</S> practice<S>5172</S> divination<S>5172</S>?"


text:
<pb/>So Judah<S>3063</S> said,<S>559</S> "What<S>4100</S> can we say<S>559</S> to my lord<S>113</S>? What<S>4100</S> can we speak<S>1696</S>? And how<S>4100</S> can we justify<S>6663</S> ourselves?

<pb/>But he said,<S>559</S> "Far<S>2486</S> be it from me to do<S>6213</S> this.<S>2088</S> The man<S>376</S> in whose<S>834</S> possession<S>3027</S> the cup<S>1375</S> has been found,<S>4672</S> he shall be my slave;<S>5650</S> but as for you, go<S>5927</S> up in peace<S>7965</S> to your father."


text:
<pb/>Then Judah<S>3063</S> approached<S>5066</S> him, and said,<S>559</S> "Oh<S>994</S> my lord,<S>113</S> may your servant<S>5650</S> please<S>4994</S> speak<S>1696</S> a word<S>1697</S> in my lord's ears,<S>241</S> and do not be angry<S>639</S> <S>2734</S> with your servant;<S>5650</S> for you are equal to Pharaoh.<S>6547</S>

"My lord<S>113</S> asked<S>7592</S> his servants,<S>5650</S> saying,<S>559</S> 'Have<S>3426</S> you a father or<S>1</S> a brother<S>176</S>?'

"But we said<S>559</S> to my lord,<S>113</S> 'The lad<S>5288</S> cannot<S>3201</S> <S>3808</S> leave<S>5800</S> his father, for if he should leave<S>1</S> his father, his father would die.<S>5800</S>'

To each<S>3605</S> <S>376</S> of them he gave<S>5414</S> changes<S>2487</S> of garments,<S>8071</S> but to Benjamin<S>1144</S> he gave<S>5414</S> three<S>7969</S> hundred<S>3967</S> [pieces of] silver<S>3701</S> and five<S>2568</S> changes<S>2487</S> of garments.<S>8071</S>

<pb/>Now he sent<S>7971</S> Judah<S>3063</S> before<S>6440</S> him to Joseph,<S>3130</S> to point<S>3384</S> out [the way] before<S>6440</S> him to Goshen;<S>1657</S> and they came<S>935</S> into the land<S>776</S> of Goshen.<S>1657</S>


text:
And Joseph<S>3130</S> prepared<S>631</S> his chariot<S>4818</S> and went<S>5927</S> up to Goshen<S>1657</S> to meet<S>7122</S> his father Israel;<S>1</S> as soon as he appeared<S>3478</S> before<S>7200</S> him, he fell<S>413</S> on his neck<S>5307</S> and wept<S>6677</S> on his neck<S>1058</S> a long<S>6677</S> time.<S>5750</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Israel<S>3478</S> said<S>559</S> to Joseph,<S>3130</S> "Now<S>6471</S> let me die,<S>4191</S> since<S>310</S> I have seen<S>7200</S> your face,<S>6440</S> that you are still<S>5750</S> alive.<S>2416</S>"


text:
And Joseph<S>3130</S> said<S>559</S> to his brothers<S>251</S> and to his father's household,<S>1004</S> "I will go<S>5927</S> up and tell<S>5046</S> Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> and will say<S>559</S> to him, 'My brothers<S>251</S> and my father's household,<S>1004</S> who<S>834</S> [were] in the land<S>776</S> of Canaan,<S>3667</S> have come<S>935</S> to me;

and the men<S>376</S> are shepherds,<S>7462</S> for they have been<S>1961</S> keepers<S>376</S> of livestock;<S>4735</S> and they have brought<S>935</S> their flocks<S>6629</S> and their herds<S>1241</S> and all<S>3605</S> that they have.'


text:
"And it shall come<S>1961</S> about when<S>3588</S> Pharaoh<S>6547</S> calls<S>7121</S> you and says,<S>559</S> 'What<S>4100</S> is your occupation<S>4639</S>?'

that you shall say,<S>559</S> 'Your servants<S>5650</S> have been<S>1961</S> keepers<S>376</S> of livestock<S>4735</S> from our youth<S>5271</S> even until<S>5704</S> now,<S>6258</S> both<S>1571</S> we and our fathers,' that you may live<S>1</S> in the land<S>3427</S> of Goshen;<S>776</S> for every<S>1657</S> shepherd<S>3605</S> is loathsome<S>7462</S> to the Egyptians.<S>8441</S> "


text:
<pb/>Then Joseph<S>3130</S> went<S>935</S> in and told<S>5046</S> Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> and said,<S>559</S> "My father and my brothers<S>1</S> and their flocks<S>251</S> and their herds<S>6629</S> and all<S>1241</S> that they have, have come<S>3605</S> out of the land<S>935</S> of Canaan;<S>776</S> and behold,<S>3667</S> they are in the land<S>2009</S> of Goshen.<S>776</S>"


text:
And he took<S>3947</S> five<S>2568</S> men<S>376</S> from among<S>7097</S> his brothers,<S>251</S> and presented<S>3322</S> <S>6440</S> them to Pharaoh.<S>6547</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Pharaoh<S>6547</S> said<S>559</S> to his brothers,<S>251</S> "What<S>4100</S> is your occupation<S>4639</S>?" So they said<S>559</S> to Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> "Your servants<S>5650</S> are shepherds,<S>7462</S> both<S>1571</S> we and our fathers."


text:
And they said<S>559</S> to Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> "We have come<S>935</S> to sojourn<S>1481</S> in the land,<S>776</S> for there<S>369</S> is no<S>369</S> pasture<S>4829</S> for your servants<S>5650</S>' flocks,<S>6629</S> for the famine<S>7458</S> is severe<S>3515</S> in the land<S>776</S> of Canaan.<S>3667</S> Now,<S>6258</S> therefore, please<S>4994</S> let your servants live<S>3427</S> in the land<S>776</S> of Goshen.<S>1657</S>"


text:
<pb/>Then Pharaoh<S>6547</S> said<S>559</S> to Joseph,<S>3130</S> "Your father and your brothers<S>1</S> have come<S>251</S> to you.

<pb/>Then Joseph<S>3130</S> brought<S>935</S> his father Jacob<S>1</S> and presented<S>3290</S> <S>5975</S> him to Pharaoh;<S>6440</S> and Jacob<S>6547</S> blessed<S>3290</S> Pharaoh.<S>1288</S>


text:
And Pharaoh<S>6547</S> said<S>559</S> to Jacob,<S>3290</S> "How<S>4100</S> many<S>4100</S> years<S>8141</S> have you lived<S>9132</S>?"


text:
So Jacob<S>3290</S> said<S>559</S> to Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> "The years<S>8141</S> of my sojourning<S>4033</S> are one hundred<S>3967</S> and thirty;<S>7970</S> few<S>4592</S> and unpleasant<S>7451</S> have been<S>1961</S> the years<S>8141</S> of my life,<S>9132</S> nor<S>3808</S> have they attained<S>5381</S> the years<S>8141</S> that my fathers lived<S>1</S> during the days<S>9132</S> of their sojourning.<S>3117</S>"


text:
And Jacob<S>3290</S> blessed<S>1288</S> Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> and went<S>3318</S> out from his presence.<S>6440</S>


text:
<pb/>So Joseph<S>3130</S> settled<S>3427</S> his father and his brothers,<S>1</S> and gave<S>251</S> them a possession<S>5414</S> in the land<S>272</S> of Egypt,<S>776</S> in the best<S>4714</S> of the land,<S>4315</S> in the land<S>776</S> of Rameses,<S>776</S> as Pharaoh<S>7486</S> had ordered.<S>6547</S>

And Joseph<S>3130</S> provided<S>3557</S> his father and his brothers<S>1</S> and all<S>251</S> his father's household<S>3605</S> with food,<S>1004</S> according<S>3899</S> to their little<S>6310</S> ones.<S>2945</S>


text:
<pb/>Now there<S>369</S> was no<S>369</S> food<S>3899</S> in all<S>3605</S> the land,<S>776</S> because<S>3588</S> the famine<S>7458</S> was very<S>3966</S> severe,<S>3515</S> so that the land<S>776</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> and the land<S>776</S> of Canaan<S>3667</S> languished<S>3856</S> because<S>4480</S> <S>6440</S> of the famine.<S>7458</S>


text:
And Joseph<S>3130</S> gathered<S>3950</S> all<S>3605</S> the money<S>3701</S> that was found<S>4672</S> in the land<S>776</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> and in the land<S>776</S> of Canaan<S>3667</S> for the grain<S>7668</S> which<S>834</S> they bought,<S>7666</S> and Joseph<S>3130</S> brought<S>935</S> the money<S>3701</S> into Pharaoh's house.<S>1004</S>


text:
And when the money<S>3701</S> was all<S>8552</S> spent<S>8552</S> in the land<S>776</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> and in the land<S>776</S> of Canaan,<S>3667</S> all<S>3605</S> the Egyptians<S>4714</S> came<S>935</S> to Joseph<S>3130</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Give<S>3051</S> us food,<S>3899</S> for why<S>4100</S> should we die<S>4191</S> in your presence<S>5048</S>? For [our] money<S>3701</S> is gone.<S>656</S>"


text:
<pb/>Then Joseph<S>3130</S> said,<S>559</S> "Give<S>3051</S> up your livestock,<S>4735</S> and I will give<S>5414</S> you [food] for your livestock,<S>4735</S> since<S>518</S> [your] money<S>3701</S> is gone.<S>656</S>"


text:
So they brought<S>935</S> their livestock<S>4735</S> to Joseph,<S>3130</S> and Joseph<S>3130</S> gave<S>5414</S> them food<S>3899</S> in exchange for the horses<S>5483</S> and the flocks<S>6629</S> and the herds<S>1241</S> and the donkeys;<S>2543</S> and he fed<S>5095</S> them with food<S>3899</S> in exchange for all<S>3605</S> their livestock<S>4735</S> that year.<S>8141</S>


text:
<pb/>And when that year<S>8141</S> was ended,<S>8552</S> they came<S>935</S> to him the next<S>8145</S> year<S>8141</S> and said<S>559</S> to him, "We will not hide<S>3582</S> from my lord<S>113</S> that our money<S>3701</S> is all<S>8552</S> spent,<S>8552</S> and the cattle<S>4735</S> <S>929</S> are my lord<S>113</S>'s.

text:
"Why<S>4100</S> should we die<S>4191</S> before your eyes,<S>5869</S> both<S>1571</S> we and our land<S>127</S>? Buy<S>7069</S> us and our land<S>127</S> for food,<S>3899</S> and we and our land<S>127</S> will be slaves<S>5650</S> to Pharaoh.<S>6547</S> So give<S>5414</S> us seed,<S>2233</S> that we may live<S>2421</S> and not die,<S>4191</S> and that the land<S>127</S> may not be desolate.<S>3456</S>"


text:
<pb/>So Joseph<S>3130</S> bought<S>7069</S> all<S>3605</S> the land<S>127</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> for Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> for every<S>376</S> Egyptian<S>4714</S> sold<S>4376</S> his field,<S>7704</S> because<S>3588</S> the famine<S>7458</S> was severe<S>2388</S> upon them. Thus the land<S>776</S> became<S>1961</S> Pharaoh's.


text:
And as for the people,<S>5971</S> he removed<S>5674</S> them to the cities<S>5892</S> from one end<S>7097</S> of Egypt's border<S>1366</S> to the other.<S>7097</S>


text:
Only<S>7534</S> the land<S>127</S> of the priests<S>3548</S> he did not buy,<S>7069</S> for the priests<S>3548</S> had an allotment<S>2706</S> from Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> and they lived<S>398</S> off<S>398</S> the allotment<S>2706</S> which<S>834</S> Pharaoh<S>6547</S> gave<S>5414</S> them. Therefore,<S>5921</S> <S>3651</S> they did not sell<S>4376</S> their land.<S>127</S>


text:
<pb/>Then Joseph<S>3130</S> said<S>559</S> to the people,<S>5971</S> "Behold,<S>2005</S> I have today<S>3117</S> bought<S>7069</S> you and your land<S>127</S> for Pharaoh;<S>6547</S> now,<S>1887</S> [here] is seed<S>2233</S> for you, and you may sow<S>2232</S> the land.<S>127</S>


text:
"And at the harvest<S>8393</S> you shall give<S>5414</S> a fifth<S>2549</S> to Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> and four-fifths shall be your own for seed<S>2233</S> of the field<S>7704</S> and for your food<S>400</S> and for those of your households<S>1004</S> and as food<S>398</S> for your little<S>2945</S> ones.<S>2945</S>"


text:
So they said,<S>559</S> "You have saved<S>2421</S> our lives!<S>2421</S> Let us find<S>4672</S> favor<S>2580</S> in the sight<S>5869</S> of my lord,<S>113</S> and we will be Pharaoh's slaves.<S>5650</S>"


text:
<pb/>And Joseph<S>3130</S> made<S>7760</S> it a statute<S>2706</S> concerning<S>5921</S> the land<S>127</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> [valid] to this<S>2088</S> day,<S>3117</S> that Pharaoh<S>6547</S> should have the fifth;<S>2569</S> only<S>7534</S> the land<S>127</S> of the priests<S>3548</S> did not become<S>1961</S> Pharaoh's.


text:
<pb/>Now Israel<S>3478</S> lived<S>3427</S> in the land<S>776</S> of Egypt,<S>4714</S> in Goshen,<S>1657</S> and they acquired<S>270</S> property<S>270</S> in it and were fruitful<S>6509</S> and became<S>7235</S> very<S>3966</S> numerous.<S>7235</S>

<pb/>And Jacob<S>3290</S> lived<S>2421</S> in the land<S>776</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> seventeen<S>7651</S> <S>6240</S> years;<S>8141</S> so the length<S>3117</S> of Jacob's life<S>9132</S> was one hundred<S>3967</S> and forty-seven years.<S>8141</S>


text:
When the time<S>3117</S> for Israel<S>3478</S> to die<S>4191</S> drew<S>7126</S> near,<S>7126</S> he called<S>7121</S> his son<S>1121</S> Joseph<S>3130</S> and said<S>559</S> to him, "Please,<S>4994</S> if<S>518</S> I have found<S>4672</S> favor<S>2580</S> in your sight,<S>5869</S> place<S>7760</S> now<S>4994</S> your hand<S>3027</S> under<S>8478</S> my thigh<S>3409</S> and deal<S>6213</S> with me in kindness<S>2617</S> and faithfulness.<S>571</S> Please<S>4994</S> do not bury<S>6912</S> me in Egypt,<S>4714</S>


text:
but when I lie<S>7901</S> down<S>7901</S> with my fathers, you shall carry<S>1</S> me out of Egypt<S>5375</S> and bury<S>4714</S> me in their burial<S>6912</S> place.<S>6900</S> "And he said,<S>6900</S> "I will do<S>559</S> as you have said.<S>6213</S> "


text:
<pb/>And he said,<S>559</S> "Swear<S>7650</S> to me." So he swore<S>7650</S> to him. Then Israel<S>3478</S> bowed<S>7812</S> [in worship] at the head<S>7218</S> of the bed.<S>4296</S>


text:
<pb/>Now it came<S>1961</S> about after<S>310</S> these<S>428</S> things<S>1697</S> that Joseph<S>3130</S> was told,<S>559</S> "Behold,<S>2009</S> your father is sick.<S>1</S>" So he took<S>2470</S> his two<S>3947</S> sons<S>8147</S> Manasseh<S>1121</S> and Ephraim<S>4519</S> with him.


text:
When it was told<S>5046</S> to Jacob,<S>3290</S> "Behold,<S>2009</S> your son<S>1121</S> Joseph<S>3130</S> has come<S>935</S> to you," Israel<S>3478</S> collected<S>2388</S> his strength<S>2388</S> and sat<S>3427</S> up in the bed.<S>4296</S>

Then Jacob<S>3290</S> said<S>559</S> to Joseph,<S>3130</S> "God<S>410</S> Almighty<S>7706</S> appeared<S>7200</S> to me at Luz<S>3870</S> in the land<S>776</S> of Canaan<S>3667</S> and blessed<S>1288</S> me,

"But your offspring<S>4138</S> that have been born<S>3205</S> after<S>310</S> them shall be yours; they shall be called<S>7121</S> by the names<S>8034</S> of their brothers<S>251</S> in their inheritance.<S>5159</S>

"Now as for me, when I came<S>935</S> from Paddan,<S>6307</S> Rachel<S>7354</S> died,<S>4191</S> to my sorrow,<S>5921</S> in the land<S>776</S> of Canaan<S>3667</S> on the journey,<S>1870</S> when there was still<S>5750</S> some<S>3530</S> distance<S>3530</S> <S>776</S> to go<S>935</S> to Ephrath;<S>672</S> and I buried<S>6912</S> her there<S>8033</S> on the way<S>1870</S> to Ephrath<S>672</S> (that is, Bethlehem<S>1035</S>)."

<pb/>When Israel<S>3478</S> saw<S>7200</S> Joseph's sons,<S>1121</S> he said,<S>559</S> "Who<S>4310</S> are these<S>428</S>?"

Now the eyes<S>5869</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> were [so] dim<S>3513</S> from age<S>2207</S> [that] he could<S>3201</S> not see.<S>7200</S> Then Joseph brought<S>5066</S> them close<S>5066</S> to him, and he kissed<S>5401</S> them and embraced<S>2263</S> them.

And Israel<S>3478</S> said<S>559</S> to Joseph,<S>3130</S> "I never<S>3808</S> expected<S>6419</S> to see<S>7200</S> your face,<S>6440</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> God<S>430</S> has let me see<S>7200</S> your children<S>2233</S> as well.<S>1571</S>"

And after<S>310</S> he had buried<S>6912</S> his father, Joseph<S>1</S> returned<S>3130</S> to Egypt,<S>7725</S> he and his brothers,<S>4714</S> and all<S>251</S> who had gone<S>3605</S> up with him to bury<S>5927</S> his father.


text:
<pb/>When Joseph<S>3130</S>'s brothers<S>251</S> saw<S>7200</S> that their father was dead,<S>1</S> they said,<S>4191</S> "What if Joseph should bear<S>559</S> a grudge<S>7852</S> against<S>7852</S> us and pay<S>7852</S> us back<S>7725</S> in full<S>7725</S> for all<S>7725</S> the wrong<S>3605</S> which<S>9567</S> we did<S>834</S> to him!"


text:
So they sent<S>6680</S> [a message] to Joseph,<S>3130</S> saying,<S>559</S> "Your father charged<S>1</S> before<S>6680</S> he died,<S>6440</S> saying,<S>4194</S>


text:
'Thus<S>3541</S> you shall say<S>559</S> to Joseph,<S>3130</S> "Please<S>4994</S> forgive,<S>5375</S> I beg<S>577</S> you, the transgression<S>6588</S> of your brothers<S>251</S> and their sin,<S>9128</S> for they did<S>1580</S> you wrong.<S>9567</S>"' And now,<S>6258</S> please<S>4994</S> forgive<S>5375</S> the transgression<S>6588</S> of the servants<S>5650</S> of the God<S>430</S> of your father. "And Joseph<S>1</S> wept<S>3130</S> when they spoke<S>1058</S> to him.


text:
Then his brothers<S>251</S> also<S>1571</S> came<S>1980</S> and fell<S>5307</S> down<S>5307</S> before<S>6440</S> him and said,<S>559</S> "Behold,<S>2009</S> we are your servants.<S>5650</S>"


text:
But Joseph<S>3130</S> said<S>559</S> to them, "Do not be afraid,<S>3372</S> for am I in God's place<S>8478</S>?


text:
"And as for you, you meant<S>2803</S> evil<S>9567</S> against<S>5921</S> me, [but] God<S>430</S> meant<S>2803</S> it for good<S>9186</S> in order<S>4616</S> to bring<S>6213</S> about<S>6213</S> this<S>2088</S> present<S>3117</S> result, to preserve<S>2421</S> many<S>7227</S> people<S>5971</S> alive.<S>2421</S>


text:
"So<S>6258</S> therefore, do not be afraid;<S>3372</S> I will provide<S>3557</S> for you and your little<S>2945</S> ones.<S>2945</S>" So he comforted<S>5162</S> them and spoke<S>1696</S> kindly<S>3820</S> to them.


text:
<pb/>Now Joseph<S>3130</S> stayed<S>3427</S> in Egypt,<S>4714</S> he and his father's household,<S>1004</S> and Joseph<S>3130</S> lived<S>2421</S> one hundred<S>3967</S> and ten<S>6235</S> years.<S>8141</S>


text:
And Joseph<S>3130</S> saw<S>7200</S> the third<S>8029</S> generation of Ephraim's sons;<S>1121</S> also<S>1571</S> the sons<S>1121</S> of Machir,<S>4353</S> the son<S>1121</S> of Manasseh,<S>4519</S> were born<S>3205</S> on Joseph's knees.<S>1290</S>


text:
And Joseph<S>3130</S> said<S>559</S> to his brothers,<S>251</S> "I am about to die,<S>4191</S> but God<S>430</S> will surely<S>6485</S> take<S>6485</S> care<S>6485</S> of you, and bring<S>5927</S> you up from this<S>2088</S> land<S>776</S> to the land<S>776</S> which<S>834</S> He promised<S>7650</S> on oath<S>7650</S> to Abraham,<S>85</S> to Isaac<S>3327</S> and to Jacob.<S>3290</S>"


text:
Then Joseph<S>3130</S> made the sons<S>1121</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> swear,<S>7650</S> saying,<S>559</S> "God<S>430</S> will surely<S>6485</S> take<S>6485</S> care<S>6485</S> of you, and you shall carry<S>5927</S> my bones<S>6106</S> up from here.<S>2088</S>"


text:
So Joseph<S>3130</S> died<S>4191</S> at the age<S>1121</S> of one hundred<S>3967</S> and ten<S>6235</S> years;<S>8141</S> and he was embalmed<S>2590</S> and placed<S>7760</S> in a coffin<S>727</S> in Egypt.<S>4714</S>


text:
<pb/>Now these<S>428</S> are the names<S>8034</S> of the sons<S>1121</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> who came<S>935</S> to Egypt<S>4714</S> with Jacob;<S>3290</S> they came<S>935</S> each<S>376</S> one<S>376</S> with his household: <S>1004</S>


text:
And all<S>3605</S> the persons<S>5315</S> who came<S>3318</S> from the loins<S>3409</S> of Jacob<S>3290</S> were seventy<S>7657</S> in number,<S>5315</S> but Joseph<S>3130</S> was [already] in Egypt.<S>4714</S>


text:
And Joseph<S>3130</S> died,<S>4191</S> and all<S>3605</S> his brothers<S>251</S> and all<S>3605</S> that generation.


text:
But the sons<S>1121</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> were fruitful<S>6509</S> and increased<S>8317</S> greatly,<S>8317</S> and multiplied,<S>7235</S> and became<S>6105</S> exceedingly<S>3966</S> mighty,<S>6105</S> so that the land<S>776</S> was filled<S>4390</S> with them.


text:
<pb/>Now a new<S>2319</S> king<S>4428</S> arose<S>6965</S> over<S>5921</S> Egypt,<S>4714</S> who<S>834</S> did not know<S>3045</S> Joseph.<S>3130</S>


text:
And he said<S>559</S> to his people,<S>5971</S> "Behold,<S>2009</S> the people<S>5971</S> of the sons<S>1121</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> are more<S>7227</S> and mightier<S>6099</S> than<S>4480</S> we.


text:
"Come,<S>3051</S> let us deal<S>2449</S> wisely<S>2449</S> with them, lest<S>6435</S> they multiply<S>7235</S> and in the event<S>1961</S> <S>3588</S> <S>7122</S> of war,<S>4421</S> they also<S>1571</S> join<S>3254</S> themselves to those who<S>834</S> hate<S>8130</S> us, and fight<S>3898</S> against us, and depart<S>5927</S> from the land.<S>776</S>"


text:
<pb/>So they appointed<S>7760</S> taskmasters<S>8269</S> <S>4522</S> over<S>5921</S> them to afflict<S>6031</S> them with hard<S>5450</S> labor.<S>5450</S> And they built<S>1129</S> for Pharaoh<S>6547</S> storage<S>4543</S> cities,<S>5892</S> Pithom<S>6619</S> and Raamses.<S>7486</S>


text:
But the more<S>9201</S> they afflicted<S>6031</S> them, the more<S>3651</S> they multiplied<S>7235</S> and the more<S>3651</S> they spread<S>6555</S> out, so that they were in dread<S>6973</S> of the sons<S>1121</S> of Israel.<S>3478</S>


text:
And the Egyptians<S>4714</S> compelled the sons<S>1121</S> of Israel<S>3478</S> to labor<S>5647</S> rigorously;<S>6531</S>


text:
and they made<S>4843</S> their lives<S>9132</S> bitter<S>4843</S> with hard<S>7186</S> labor<S>5656</S> in mortar<S>2563</S> and bricks<S>3843</S> and at all<S>3605</S> [kinds] of labor<S>5656</S> in the field,<S>7704</S> all<S>3605</S> their labors<S>5656</S> which<S>834</S> they rigorously<S>6531</S> imposed<S>5647</S> on them.


text:
<pb/>Then the king<S>4428</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> spoke<S>559</S> to the Hebrew<S>5680</S> midwives,<S>3205</S> one<S>259</S> of whom<S>834</S> was named<S>8034</S> Shiphrah,<S>8236</S> and the other<S>8145</S> was named<S>8034</S> Puah;<S>6326</S>


text:
and he said,<S>559</S> "When you are helping the Hebrew<S>5680</S> women<S>5680</S> to give<S>3205</S> birth<S>3205</S> and see<S>7200</S> [them] upon the birthstool,<S>70</S> if<S>518</S> it is a son,<S>1121</S> then you shall put<S>4191</S> him to death;<S>4191</S> but if<S>518</S> it is a daughter,<S>1323</S> then she shall live.<S>2421</S>"


text:
But the midwives<S>3205</S> feared<S>3372</S> God,<S>430</S> and did not do<S>6213</S> as the king<S>4428</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> had commanded<S>1696</S> them, but let the boys<S>3206</S> live.<S>2421</S>


text:
<pb/>So the king<S>4428</S> of Egypt<S>4714</S> called<S>7121</S> for the midwives,<S>3205</S> and said<S>559</S> to them, "Why<S>4069</S> have you done<S>6213</S> this<S>2088</S> thing,<S>1697</S> and let the boys<S>3206</S> live<S>2421</S>?"


text:
And the midwives<S>3205</S> said<S>559</S> to Pharaoh,<S>6547</S> "Because<S>3588</S> the Hebrew<S>5680</S> women<S>5680</S> are not as the Egyptian<S>4713</S> women;<S>802</S> for they are vigorous,<S>2422</S> and they give<S>3205</S> birth<S>3205</S> before<S>2962</S> the midwife<S>3205</S> can<S>935</S> get<S>935</S> to them."


text:
So God<S>430</S> was good<S>3190</S> to the midwives,<S>3205</S> and the people<S>5971</S> multiplied,<S>7235</S> and became<S>6105</S> very<S>3966</S> mighty.<S>6105</S>


text:
And it came<S>1961</S> about because<S>3588</S> the midwives<S>3205</S> feared<S>3372</S> God,<S>430</S> that He established<S>6213</S> households<S>1004</S> for them.


text:
<pb/>Then Pharaoh<S>6547</S> commanded<S>6680</S> all<S>3605</S> his people,<S>5971</S> saying,<S>559</S> "Every<S>3605</S> son<S>1121</S> who is born<S>3209</S> you are to cast<S>7993</S> into the Nile,<S>2975</S> and every<S>3605</S> daughter<S>1323</S> you are to keep<S>2421</S> alive.<S>2421</S>"


text:
<pb/>Now a man<S>376</S> from the house<S>1004</S> of Levi<S>3878</S> went<S>1980</S> and married<S>3947</S> a daughter<S>1323</S> of Levi.<S>3878</S>


text:
And the woman<S>802</S> conceived<S>2029</S> and bore<S>3205</S> a son;<S>1121</S> and when she saw<S>7200</S> that he was beautiful,<S>2896</S> she hid<S>6845</S> him for three<S>7969</S> months.<S>3391</S>


text:
But when she could<S>3201</S> hide<S>6845</S> him no<S>3808</S> longer,<S>5750</S> she got<S>3947</S> him a wicker<S>1573</S> basket<S>8392</S> and covered<S>9146</S> it over with tar<S>2564</S> and pitch.<S>2203</S> Then she put<S>7760</S> the child<S>3206</S> into it, and set<S>7760</S> [it] among the reeds<S>5488</S> by the bank<S>8193</S> of the Nile.<S>2975</S>


text:
And his sister<S>269</S> stood<S>3320</S> at a distance<S>7350</S> to find<S>3045</S> out what<S>4100</S> would happen<S>6213</S> to him.


text:
<pb/>Then the daughter<S>1323</S> of Pharaoh<S>6547</S> came<S>3381</S> down<S>3381</S> to bathe<S>7364</S> at the Nile,<S>2975</S> with her maidens<S>5291</S> walking<S>1980</S> alongside<S>5921</S> <S>3027</S> the Nile;<S>2975</S> and she saw<S>7200</S> the basket<S>8392</S> among<S>8432</S> the reeds<S>5488</S> and sent<S>7971</S> her maid,<S>519</S> and she brought<S>3947</S> it [to her.]


text:
When she opened<S>6605</S> [it,] she saw<S>7200</S> the child,<S>3206</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> [the] boy<S>5288</S> was crying.<S>1058</S> And she had<S>2550</S> pity<S>2550</S> on him and said,<S>559</S> "This<S>2088</S> is one<S>4480</S> of the Hebrews' children.<S>3206</S>"


text:
<pb/>Then his sister<S>269</S> said<S>559</S> to Pharaoh's daughter,<S>1323</S> "Shall I go<S>1980</S> and call<S>7121</S> a nurse<S>3243</S> for you from the Hebrew<S>5680</S> women,<S>5680</S> that she may nurse<S>3243</S> the child<S>3206</S> for you?"


text:
And Pharaoh's daughter<S>1323</S> said<S>559</S> to her, "Go<S>1980</S> [ahead]." So the girl<S>5959</S> went<S>1980</S> and called<S>7121</S> the child's mother.<S>517</S>


text:
Then Pharaoh's daughter<S>1323</S> said<S>559</S> to her, "Take<S>1980</S> this<S>2088</S> child<S>3206</S> away and nurse<S>3243</S> him for me and I shall give<S>5414</S> [you] your wages.<S>7939</S>" So the woman<S>802</S> took<S>3947</S> the child<S>3206</S> and nursed<S>5134</S> him.


text:
<pb/>And the child<S>3206</S> grew,<S>1431</S> and she brought<S>935</S> him to Pharaoh's daughter,<S>1323</S> and he became<S>1961</S> her son.<S>1121</S> And she named<S>7121</S> <S>8034</S> him Moses,<S>4872</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Because<S>3588</S> I drew<S>4871</S> him out of the water.<S>4325</S>"


text:
Now it came<S>1961</S> about in those<S>1992</S> days,<S>3117</S> when Moses<S>4872</S> had grown<S>1431</S> up, that he went<S>3318</S> out to his brethren<S>251</S> and looked<S>7200</S> on their hard<S>5450</S> labors;<S>5450</S> and he saw<S>7200</S> an Egyptian<S>4713</S> beating<S>5221</S> a Hebrew,<S>5680</S> one<S>4480</S> of his brethren.<S>251</S>


text:
So he looked<S>6437</S> this<S>3541</S> way<S>3541</S> and that, and when he saw<S>7200</S> there<S>369</S> was no<S>369</S> one<S>376</S> [around,] he struck<S>5221</S> down<S>5221</S> the Egyptian<S>4713</S> and hid<S>2934</S> him in the sand.<S>2344</S>


text:
And he went<S>3318</S> out the next<S>8145</S> day,<S>3117</S> and behold,<S>2009</S> two<S>8147</S> Hebrews<S>5680</S> were fighting<S>5327</S> with each other; and he said<S>559</S> to the offender,<S>7563</S> "Why<S>4100</S> are you striking<S>5221</S> your companion<S>7453</S>?"


text:
<pb/>But he said,<S>559</S> "Who<S>4310</S> made<S>7760</S> you a prince<S>8269</S> or a judge<S>8199</S> over<S>5921</S> us? Are you intending<S>559</S> to kill<S>2026</S> me, as you killed<S>2026</S> the Egyptian<S>4713</S>?" Then Moses<S>4872</S> was afraid,<S>3372</S> and said,<S>559</S> "Surely<S>403</S> the matter<S>1697</S> has become known.<S>3045</S>"
