lesserot - Genesis:12-14

lesserot@Genesis:12:1 @ Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and out of thy birthplace, and from thy fathers house, unto the land that I will show thee.

lesserot@Genesis:12:2 @ And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:

lesserot@Genesis:12:3 @ And I will bless those that bless thee, and him that curseth thee, will I curse; and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

lesserot@Genesis:12:4 @ So Abram departed, as the Lord had spoken unto him, and Lot went with him; and Abram was seventy and five years old at his departure out of Charan.

lesserot@Genesis:12:5 @ And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brothers son, and all their substance that they had acquired, and the persons that they had obtained in Charan; and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and they came into the land of Canaan.

lesserot@Genesis:12:6 @ And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Shechem, unto the plain of Moreh; and the Canaanite was then in the land.

lesserot@Genesis:12:7 @ And the Lord appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land. And he built there an altar unto the Lord, who had appeared unto him.

lesserot@Genesis:12:8 @ And he removed from there unto the mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Ai on the east; and he built there an altar unto the Lord, and called upon the name of the Lord.

lesserot@Genesis:12:9 @ And Abram journeyed farther, still going on toward the south.

lesserot@Genesis:12:10 @ And there arose a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was grievous in the land.

lesserot@Genesis:12:11 @ And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou art a woman of handsome appearance:

lesserot@Genesis:12:12 @ And it may come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see thee, that they will say, This is his wife; and they may kill me, but thee they will save alive.

lesserot@Genesis:12:13 @ Say then, I pray thee, thou art my sister, that it may go well with me for thy sake, and my soul live because of thee.

lesserot@Genesis:12:14 @ And it came to pass, when Abram was come into Egypt, that the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair.

lesserot@Genesis:12:15 @ The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her to Pharaoh; and the woman was taken into Pharaohs house.

lesserot@Genesis:12:16 @ And he did well to Abram for her sake; and he received sheep, and oxen, and heasses, and menservants, and maidservants, and sheasses, and camels.

lesserot@Genesis:12:17 @ But the Lord plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai, Abrams wife.

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

lesserot@Genesis:12:19 @ Why saidst thou, She is my sister? and so I took her to me for a wife; now, therefore, behold, here is thy wife, take her, and go thy way.

lesserot@Genesis:12:20 @ And Pharaoh commanded some men concerning him, who accompanied him and his wife, and all that he had.

lesserot@Genesis:13:1 @ And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.

lesserot@Genesis:13:2 @ And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.

lesserot@Genesis:13:3 @ And he went on his journeys from the south even to Bethel, unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai;

lesserot@Genesis:13:4 @ Unto the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first; and Abram called there on the name of the Lord.

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

lesserot@Genesis:13:6 @ And the land was not able to bear them, that they might dwell together; for their substance was great, so that they could not dwell together.

lesserot@Genesis:13:7 @ And there arose a strife between the herdmen of Abrams cattle, and the herdmen of Lots cattle; and the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelled then in the land.

lesserot@Genesis:13:8 @ And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we are near relatives.

lesserot@Genesis:13:9 @ Is not the whole land before thee? Separate thyself, I pray thee, from me: if thou wilt take the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if thou depart to the right, then I will go to the left.

lesserot@Genesis:13:10 @ And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere; before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt, till thou comest unto Zoar.

lesserot@Genesis:13:11 @ Then Lot chose himself all the plain of Jordan; and Lot journeyed east; and they separated themselves the one from the other.

lesserot@Genesis:13:12 @ Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan; and Lot dwelt in the cities of the plain, and pitched his tents, till close to Sodom.

lesserot@Genesis:13:13 @ But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the Lord exceedingly.

lesserot@Genesis:13:14 @ And the Lord said unto Abram, after Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thy eyes, and look from the place where thou art, northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward;

lesserot@Genesis:13:15 @ For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed forever.

lesserot@Genesis:13:16 @ And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth; so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered.

lesserot@Genesis:13:17 @ Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for unto thee will I give it.

lesserot@Genesis:13:18 @ Then Abram pitched his tent, and came and dwelt in the grove of Mamre, which is in Hebron; and he built there an altar unto the Lord.

lesserot@Genesis:14:1 @ And it came to pass, in the day of Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Kedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goyim;

lesserot@Genesis:14:2 @ That these made war with Bera king of Sodom, and with Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, and Shemeber king of Zeboyim, and the king of Bela, which is Zoar.

lesserot@Genesis:14:3 @ All these joined together in the vale of Siddim, which is now the salt sea.

lesserot@Genesis:14:4 @ Twelve years had they served Kedorlaomer, but in the thirteenth year they rebelled.

lesserot@Genesis:14:5 @ And in the fourteenth year came Kedorlaomer, and the kings that were with him, and they smote the Rephaim in Ashterothkarnayim, and the Zuzim in Ham, and the Emim in Shavehkiriathayim,

lesserot@Genesis:14:6 @ And the Horites in their mountain Seir, unto Elparan, which is by the wilderness.

lesserot@Genesis:14:7 @ And they returned and came to Enmishpat, which is Kadesh, and smote all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Emorites, that dwelt in Hazezontamar.

lesserot@Genesis:14:8 @ And then went out the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboyim, and the king of Bela, and they joined battle with them in the vale of Siddim;

lesserot@Genesis:14:9 @ With Kedorlaomer king of Elam, and with Tidal king of Goyim, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings with five.

lesserot@Genesis:14:10 @ And the vale of Siddim was full of slimepits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell therein; and they that remained fled to the mountain.

lesserot@Genesis:14:11 @ And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their victuals, and went their way.

lesserot@Genesis:14:12 @ And they took Lot, Abrams brothers son, who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.

lesserot@Genesis:14:13 @ And there came one that had escaped, and told it to Abram the Hebrew; but he dwelt in the grove of Mamre the Emorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner, and these were confederates of Abram.

lesserot@Genesis:14:14 @ And when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he armed his trained servants; born in his own house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued them into Daniel.

lesserot@Genesis:14:15 @ And he divided himself against them, he and his servants, by night, and smote them, and pursued them unto Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus.

lesserot@Genesis:14:16 @ And he brought back all the goods; and he also brought again his brother Lot, and his goods, and also the women, and the people.

lesserot@Genesis:14:17 @ And the king of Sodom went out to meet him at the valley of Shaveh, which is the kings dale.

lesserot@Genesis:14:18 @ And Malkizidek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine; and he was a priest of the most high God.

lesserot@Genesis:14:19 @ And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth.

lesserot@Genesis:14:20 @ And blessed he the most high God, who hath delivered thy enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.

lesserot@Genesis:14:21 @ And the king of Sodom said unto Abram, Give me the persons, and the goods take to thyself.

lesserot@Genesis:14:22 @ And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lifted up my hand unto the Lord, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth,

lesserot@Genesis:14:23 @ That I will not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine; lest thou shouldst say, I have made Abram rich:

lesserot@Genesis:14:24 @ Save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men who went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamrethese may take their portion.

lesserot@Genesis:15:1 @ After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not Abram; I am thy shield, thy reward shall be exceedingly great.
