dby@Genesis:1:17 @ And God set them in the expanse of the heavens, to give light on the earth,

dby@Genesis:1:18 @ and to rule during the day and during the night, and to divide between the light and the darkness. And God saw that it was good.

dby@Genesis:11:3 @ And they said one to another, Come on, let us make bricks, and burn [them] thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and they had asphalt for mortar.

dby@Genesis:11:4 @ And they said, Come on, let us build ourselves a city and a tower, the top of which [may reach] to the heavens; and let us make ourselves a name, lest we be scattered over the face of the whole earth.

dby@Genesis:11:5 @ And Jehovah came down to see the city and the tower which the children of men built.

dby@Genesis:11:6 @ And Jehovah said, Behold, the people is one, and have all one language; and this have they begun to do. And now will they be hindered in nothing that they meditate doing.

dby@Genesis:11:7 @ Come, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.

dby@Genesis:11:8 @ And Jehovah scattered them thence over the face of the whole earth. And they left off building the city.

dby@Genesis:11:9 @ Therefore was its name called Babel; because Jehovah there confounded the language of the whole earth. And Jehovah scattered them thence over the face of the whole earth.

dby@Genesis:12:9 @ And Abram moved onward, going on still toward the south.

dby@Genesis:12:10 @ And there was a famine in the land. And Abram went down to Egypt to sojourn there, for the famine was grievous in the land.

dby@Genesis:12:11 @ And it came to pass when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said to Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou art a woman fair to look upon.

dby@Genesis:12:12 @ And it will come to pass when the Egyptians see thee, that they will say, She is his wife; and they will slay me, and save thee alive.

dby@Genesis:12:13 @ Say, I pray thee, thou art my sister, that it may be well with me on thy account, and my soul may live because of thee.

dby@Genesis:12:18 @ And Pharaoh called Abram, and said, What is this thou hast done to me? Why didst thou not tell me that she was thy wife?

dby@Genesis:12:19 @ Why didst thou say, She is my sister, so that I took her as my wife. And now, behold, there is thy wife: take [her], and go away.

dby@Genesis:12:20 @ And Pharaoh commanded [his] men concerning him, and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had.

dby@Genesis:13:4 @ to the place of the altar that he had made there at the first. And there Abram called on the name of Jehovah.

dby@Genesis:13:5 @ And Lot also who went with Abram had flocks, and herds, and tents.

dby@Genesis:13:6 @ And the land could not support them, that they might dwell together, for their property was great; and they could not dwell together.

dby@Genesis:13:7 @ And there was strife between the herdsmen of Abram's cattle and the herdsmen of Lot's cattle. And the Canaanite and the Perizzite were dwelling then in the land.

dby@Genesis:13:8 @ And Abram said to Lot, I pray thee let there be no contention between me and thee, and between my herdsmen and thy herdsmen, for we are brethren.

dby@Genesis:13:9 @ Is not the whole land before thee? Separate thyself, I pray thee, from me: if to the left, then I will take the right; and if to the right, then I will take the left.

dby@Genesis:13:10 @ And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of the Jordan that it was thoroughly watered, before Jehovah had destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah; as the garden of Jehovah, like the land of Egypt, as one goes to Zoar.

dby@Genesis:13:11 @ And Lot chose for himself all the plain of the Jordan; and Lot went toward the east. And they separated the one from the other:

dby@Genesis:13:12 @ Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan; and Lot dwelt in the cities of the plain, and pitched tents as far as Sodom.

dby@Genesis:13:13 @ And the people of Sodom were wicked, and great sinners before Jehovah.

dby@Genesis:13:14 @ And Jehovah said to Abram, after that Lot had separated himself from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art, northward and southward and eastward and westward;

dby@Genesis:13:15 @ for all the land that thou seest will I give to thee, and to thy seed for ever.

dby@Genesis:13:16 @ And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth, so that if any one can number the dust of the earth, thy seed also will be numbered.

dby@Genesis:13:17 @ Arise, walk through the land according to the length of it and according to the breadth of it; for I will give it to thee.

dby@Genesis:14:9 @ with Chedorlaomer the king of Elam, and Tidal the king of nations, and Amraphel the king of Shinar, and Arioch the king of Ellasar -- four kings with the five.

dby@Genesis:14:10 @ And the vale of Siddim was full of pits of asphalt. And the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there: and they that remained fled to the mountain.

dby@Genesis:14:12 @ And they took Lot and his property, Abram's brother's son, and departed. For he dwelt in Sodom.

dby@Genesis:14:13 @ And one who had escaped came and told Abram the Hebrew. And he dwelt by the oaks of Mamre the Amorite, the brother of Eshcol, and the brother of Aner. And these were Abram's allies.

dby@Genesis:14:21 @ And the king of Sodom said to Abram, Give me the souls, and take the property for thyself.

dby@Genesis:14:22 @ And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lifted up my hand to Jehovah, the Most High �God, possessor of heavens and earth,

dby@Genesis:14:23 @ if from a thread even to a sandal-thong, yes, if of all that is thine, I take [anything]...; that thou mayest not say, I have made Abram rich;

dby@Genesis:14:24 @ save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men that went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre, let them take their portion.

dby@Genesis:15:1 @ After these things the word of Jehovah came to Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram; I am thy shield, thy exceeding great reward.

dby@Genesis:15:2 @ And Abram said, Lord Jehovah, what wilt thou give me? seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus.

dby@Genesis:15:3 @ And Abram said, Lo, to me thou hast given no seed, and behold, a son of my house will be mine heir.

dby@Genesis:15:4 @ And behold, the word of Jehovah [came] to him, saying, This shall not be thine heir, but he that will come forth out of thy body shall be thine heir.

dby@Genesis:15:12 @ And as the sun was just going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and behold, a horror, a great darkness, fell upon him.

dby@Genesis:15:13 @ And he said to Abram, Know assuredly that thy seed will be a sojourner in a land [that is] not theirs, and they shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years.

dby@Genesis:15:14 @ But also that nation which they shall serve I will judge; and afterwards they shall come out with great property.

dby@Genesis:15:15 @ And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.

dby@Genesis:15:16 @ And [in the] fourth generation they shall come hither again; for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.

dby@Genesis:16:5 @ And Sarai said to Abram, My wrong be on thee! I have given my maidservant into thy bosom; and now she sees that she has conceived, I am lightly esteemed in her eyes. Jehovah judge between me and thee!

dby@Genesis:17:3 @ And Abram fell on his face; and God talked with him, saying,

dby@Genesis:17:4 @ It is I: behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of a multitude of nations.

dby@Genesis:17:5 @ And thy name shall no more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of a multitude of nations have I made thee.

dby@Genesis:17:6 @ And I will make thee exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.

dby@Genesis:17:7 @ And I will establish my covenant between me and thee, and thy seed after thee in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to thee, and to thy seed after thee.

dby@Genesis:17:8 @ And I give to thee, and to thy seed after thee, the land of thy sojourning, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be a God to them.

dby@Genesis:17:9 @ And God said to Abraham, And [as for] thee, thou shalt keep my covenant, thou and thy seed after thee in their generations.

dby@Genesis:17:10 @ This is my covenant which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee -- that every male among you be circumcised.

dby@Genesis:17:11 @ And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and [that] shall be a sign of the covenant between me and you.

dby@Genesis:17:12 @ And at eight days old shall every male in your generations be circumcised among you -- he who is born in the house, and he who is bought with money, any stranger who is not of thy seed.

dby@Genesis:17:13 @ He who is born in thy house, and he who is bought with thy money, must be circumcised; and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.

dby@Genesis:17:14 @ And the uncircumcised male who hath not been circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that soul shall be cut off from his peoples: he hath broken my covenant.

dby@Genesis:17:15 @ And God said to Abraham, [As to] Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall be her name.

dby@Genesis:17:16 @ And I will bless her, and I will give thee a son also of her; and I will bless her, and she shall become nations: kings of peoples shall be of her.

dby@Genesis:17:17 @ And Abraham fell on his face and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall [a child] be born to him that is a hundred years old? and shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear?

dby@Genesis:17:18 @ And Abraham said to God, Oh that Ishmael might live before thee!

dby@Genesis:17:19 @ And God said, Sarah thy wife shall indeed bear thee a son; and thou shalt call his name Isaac; and I will establish my covenant with him, for an everlasting covenant for his seed after him.

dby@Genesis:17:20 @ And for Ishmael I have heard thee: behold, I will bless him, and will make him fruitful, and will very greatly multiply him; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.

dby@Genesis:17:21 @ But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear to thee at this appointed time in the next year.

dby@Genesis:17:22 @ And he left off talking with him; and God went up from Abraham.

dby@Genesis:17:23 @ And Abraham took Ishmael his son, and all who were born in his house, and all who were bought with his money -- every male among the people of Abraham's house -- and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin on that same day, as God had said to him.

dby@Genesis:17:24 @ And Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

dby@Genesis:17:25 @ And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

dby@Genesis:17:26 @ In the selfsame day was Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his son;

dby@Genesis:17:27 @ and all the men of his house, born in his house, or bought with money of the stranger, were circumcised with him.

dby@Genesis:18:1 @ And Jehovah appeared to him by the oaks of Mamre. And he sat at the tent-door in the heat of the day.

dby@Genesis:18:2 @ And he lifted up his eyes and saw, and behold, three men standing near him. And when he saw [them], he ran to meet them from the tent-door, and bowed himself to the earth,

dby@Genesis:18:3 @ and said, Lord, if now I have found favour in thine eyes, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant.

dby@Genesis:18:4 @ Let now a little water be fetched, that ye may wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree.

dby@Genesis:18:5 @ And I will fetch a morsel of bread; and refresh yourselves; after that ye shall pass on; for therefore have ye passed on towards your servant. And they said, So do as thou hast said.

dby@Genesis:18:6 @ And Abraham hastened into the tent to Sarah, and said, Knead quickly three seahs of wheaten flour, and make cakes.

dby@Genesis:18:7 @ And Abraham ran to the herd, and took a calf tender and good, and gave [it] to the attendant; and he hasted to dress it.

dby@Genesis:18:8 @ And he took thick and sweet milk, and the calf that he had dressed, and set [it] before them; and he stood before them under the tree, and they ate.

dby@Genesis:18:9 @ And they said to him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent.

dby@Genesis:18:10 @ And he said, I will certainly return to thee at [this] time of the year, and behold, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah was listening at the tent-door, which was behind him.

dby@Genesis:18:11 @ Now Abraham and Sarah were old [and] advanced in age: it had ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.

dby@Genesis:18:12 @ And Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am become old, shall I have pleasure, and my lord old?

dby@Genesis:18:13 @ And Jehovah said to Abraham, Why is this, that Sarah laughs, saying, Shall I indeed bear, when I am become old?

dby@Genesis:18:14 @ Is [any] matter too wonderful for Jehovah? At the time appointed I will return to thee, at [this] time of the year, and Sarah shall have a son.

dby@Genesis:18:15 @ And Sarah denied, saying, I did not laugh; for she was afraid. And he said, No; but thou didst laugh.

dby@Genesis:18:16 @ And the men rose up thence, and looked toward Sodom; and Abraham went with them to conduct them.

dby@Genesis:18:17 @ And Jehovah said, Shall I hide from Abraham what I am doing?

dby@Genesis:18:18 @ Since Abraham shall indeed become a great and mighty nation; and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him.

dby@Genesis:18:19 @ For I know him that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of Jehovah, to do righteousness and justice, in order that Jehovah may bring upon Abraham what he hath spoken of him.

dby@Genesis:18:20 @ And Jehovah said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great and their sin is very grievous,

dby@Genesis:18:21 @ I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come to me; and if not, I will know [it].

dby@Genesis:18:22 @ And the men turned thence, and went towards Sodom; and Abraham remained yet standing before Jehovah.

dby@Genesis:18:23 @ And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also cause the righteous to perish with the wicked?

dby@Genesis:18:24 @ There are perhaps fifty righteous within the city: wilt thou also destroy and not forgive the place for the sake of the fifty righteous that are therein?

dby@Genesis:18:25 @ Far be it from thee to do so, to slay the righteous with the wicked, that the righteous should be as the wicked -- far be it from thee! Will not the Judge of all the earth do right?

dby@Genesis:18:26 @ And Jehovah said, If I find at Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will forgive all the place for their sakes.

dby@Genesis:18:27 @ And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I have ventured to speak unto the Lord; I, who am dust and ashes.

dby@Genesis:18:28 @ Perhaps there may want five of the fifty righteous: wilt thou destroy all the city on account of the five? And he said, If I shall find forty-five there, I will not destroy [it].

dby@Genesis:18:29 @ And he continued yet to speak with him, and said, Perhaps there may be forty found there. And he said, I will not do it for the forty's sake.

dby@Genesis:18:30 @ And he said, Oh, let not the Lord be angry that I speak! Perhaps there may be thirty found there. And he said, I will not do it if I find thirty there.

dby@Genesis:18:31 @ And he said, Behold now, I have ventured to speak with the Lord. Perhaps there may be twenty found there. And he said, I will not destroy [it] for the twenty's sake.

dby@Genesis:18:32 @ And he said, Oh, let not the Lord be angry, that I speak yet but this time! Perhaps there may be ten found there. And he said, I will not destroy [it] for the ten's sake.

dby@Genesis:18:33 @ And Jehovah went away when he had ended speaking to Abraham; and Abraham returned to his place.

dby@Genesis:19:1 @ And the two angels came to Sodom at even. And Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. And Lot saw them, and rose up to meet them; and he bowed down, the face toward the ground,

dby@Genesis:19:2 @ and he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and lodge, and wash your feet; and ye shall rise up early, and go on your way. And they said, No; but we will pass the night in the open place.

dby@Genesis:19:3 @ And he urged them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house. And he made them a repast, and baked unleavened cakes; and they ate.

dby@Genesis:19:4 @ Before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, surrounded the house, from the youngest to the oldest -- all the people from every quarter.

dby@Genesis:19:5 @ And they called to Lot, and said to him, Where are the men that have come in to thee to-night? bring them out to us that we may know them.

dby@Genesis:19:6 @ And Lot went out to them to the entrance, and shut the door after him,

dby@Genesis:19:7 @ and said, I pray you, my brethren, do not wickedly!

dby@Genesis:19:8 @ Behold now, I have two daughters who have not known a man: let me now bring them out to you; and do to them as is good in your sight: only, to these men do nothing; for therefore have they come under the shadow of my roof.

dby@Genesis:19:9 @ And they said, Back there! And they said [again], This one came to sojourn, and he must be a judge? Now we will deal worse with thee than with them. And they pressed hard on the man -- on Lot; and drew near to break the door.

dby@Genesis:19:10 @ And the men stretched out their hand, and brought Lot into the house to them, and shut the door.

dby@Genesis:19:11 @ And they smote the men that were at the entrance of the house with blindness, from the smallest to the greatest; and they wearied themselves to find the entrance.

dby@Genesis:19:12 @ And the men said to Lot, Whom hast thou here besides? a son-in-law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and all whom thou hast in the city -- bring [them] out of the place.

dby@Genesis:19:13 @ For we are going to destroy this place, because the cry of them is great before Jehovah, and Jehovah has sent us to destroy it.

dby@Genesis:19:14 @ And Lot went out, and spoke to his sons-in-law, who had married his daughters, and said, Up, go out of this place, for Jehovah will destroy the city. But he was as if he jested, in the sight of his sons-in-law.

dby@Genesis:19:15 @ And as the dawn arose, the angels urged Lot, saying, Up, take thy wife and thy two daughters who are present, lest thou perish in the iniquity of the city.

dby@Genesis:19:16 @ And as he lingered, the men laid hold on his hand, and on the hand of his wife, and on the hand of his two daughters, Jehovah being merciful to him; and they led him out, and set him without the city.

dby@Genesis:19:17 @ And it came to pass when they had brought them outside, that he said, Escape for thy life: look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain: escape to the mountain, lest thou perish.

dby@Genesis:19:18 @ And Lot said to them, Not [so], I pray thee, Lord;

dby@Genesis:19:19 @ behold now, thy servant has found favour in thine eyes, and thou hast magnified thy goodness, which thou hast shewn to me in preserving my soul alive; but I cannot escape to the mountain, lest calamity lay hold on me, that I die.

dby@Genesis:19:20 @ Behold now, this city is near to flee to, and it is small: I pray thee, let me escape thither -- is it not small? -- and my soul shall live.

dby@Genesis:19:21 @ And he said to him, Behold, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow the city of which thou hast spoken.

dby@Genesis:19:22 @ Haste, escape thither; for I cannot do anything until thou art come there. Therefore the name of the city is called Zoar.

dby@Genesis:19:23 @ The sun rose upon the earth when Lot came to Zoar.

dby@Genesis:19:24 @ And Jehovah rained on Sodom and Gomorrah brimstone and fire from Jehovah out of heaven,

dby@Genesis:19:25 @ and overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew upon the ground.

dby@Genesis:19:26 @ And his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

dby@Genesis:19:27 @ And Abraham rose early in the morning [and went] to the place where he had stood before Jehovah;

dby@Genesis:19:28 @ and he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and lo, a smoke went up from the land as the smoke of a furnace.

dby@Genesis:19:29 @ And it came to pass when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in which Lot dwelt.

dby@Genesis:19:30 @ And Lot went up from Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar. And he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.

dby@Genesis:19:31 @ And the first-born said to the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the land to come in to us after the manner of all the earth:

dby@Genesis:19:32 @ come, let us give our father wine to drink, and let us lie with him, that we may preserve seed alive of our father.

dby@Genesis:19:33 @ And they gave their father wine to drink that night. And the first-born went in, and lay with her father, and he did not know of her lying down, nor of her rising.

dby@Genesis:19:34 @ And it came to pass on the next day that the first-born said to the younger, Lo, I lay last night with my father: let us give him wine to drink to-night also, and go thou in, lie with him, that we may preserve seed alive of our father.

dby@Genesis:19:35 @ And they gave their father wine to drink that night also. And the younger arose, and lay with him; and he did not know of her lying down, nor of her rising.

dby@Genesis:19:36 @ And both the daughters of Lot were with child by their father.

dby@Genesis:19:37 @ And the first-born bore a son, and called his name Moab: the same is the father of the Moabites to this day.

dby@Genesis:19:38 @ And the younger, she also bore a son, and called his name Ben-ammi; the same is the father of the children of Ammon to this day.
