bbe@Genesis:1:2 @And the earth was waste and without form; and it was dark on the face of the deep: and the Spirit of God was moving on the face of the waters.

bbe@Genesis:1:4 @And God, looking on the light, saw that it was good: and God made a division between the light and the dark,

bbe@Genesis:1:7 @And God made the arch for a division between the waters which were under the arch and those which were over it: and it was so.

bbe@Genesis:1:8 @And God gave the arch the name of Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, the second day.

bbe@Genesis:1:9 @And God said, Let the waters under the heaven come together in one place, and let the dry land be seen: and it was so.

bbe@Genesis:1:11 @And God said, Let grass come up on the earth, and plants producing seed, and fruit-trees giving fruit, in which is their seed, after their sort: and it was so.

bbe@Genesis:1:12 @And grass came up on the earth, and every plant producing seed of its sort, and every tree producing fruit, in which is its seed, of its sort: and God saw that it was good.

bbe@Genesis:1:14 @And God said, Let there be lights in the arch of heaven, for a division between the day and the night, and let them be for signs, and for marking the changes of the year, and for days and for years:

bbe@Genesis:1:15 @And let them be for lights in the arch of heaven to give light on the earth: and it was so.

bbe@Genesis:1:17 @And God put them in the arch of heaven, to give light on the earth;

bbe@Genesis:1:18 @To have rule over the day and the night, and for a division between the light and the dark: and God saw that it was good.

bbe@Genesis:1:24 @And God said, Let the earth give birth to all sorts of living things, cattle and all things moving on the earth, and beasts of the earth after their sort: and it was so.

bbe@Genesis:1:25 @And God made the beast of the earth after its sort, and the cattle after their sort, and everything moving on the face of the earth after its sort: and God saw that it was good.

bbe@Genesis:1:26 @And God said, Let us make man in our image, like us: and let him have rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over the cattle and over all the earth and over every living thing which goes flat on the earth.

bbe@Genesis:1:28 @And God gave them his blessing and said to them, Be fertile and have increase, and make the earth full and be masters of it; be rulers over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing moving on the earth.

bbe@Genesis:1:29 @And God said, See, I have given you every plant producing seed, on the face of all the earth, and every tree which has fruit producing seed: they will be for your food:

bbe@Genesis:1:30 @And to every beast of the earth and to every bird of the air and every living thing moving on the face of the earth I have given every green plant for food: and it was so.

bbe@Genesis:2:2 @And on the seventh day God came to the end of all his work; and on the seventh day he took his rest from all the work which he had done.

bbe@Genesis:2:3 @And God gave his blessing to the seventh day and made it holy: because on that day he took his rest from all the work which he had made and done.

bbe@Genesis:2:4 @These are the generations of the heaven and the earth when they were made.

bbe@Genesis:2:5 @In the day when the Lord God made earth and heaven there were no plants of the field on the earth, and no grass had come up: for the Lord God had not sent rain on the earth and there was no man to do work on the land.

bbe@Genesis:2:11 @The name of the first is Pishon, which goes round about all the land of Havilah where there is gold.

bbe@Genesis:2:12 @And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone.

bbe@Genesis:2:13 @And the name of the second river is Gihon: this river goes round all the land of Cush.

bbe@Genesis:2:17 @But of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you may not take; for on the day when you take of it, death will certainly come to you.

bbe@Genesis:2:18 @And the Lord God said, It is not good for the man to be by himself: I will make one like himself as a help to him

bbe@Genesis:2:20 @And the man gave names to all cattle and to the birds of the air and to every beast of the field; but Adam had no one like himself as a help.

bbe@Genesis:2:21 @And the Lord God sent a deep sleep on the man, and took one of the bones from his side while he was sleeping, joining up the flesh again in its place:

bbe@Genesis:2:22 @And the bone which the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman, and took her to the man.

bbe@Genesis:2:23 @And the man said, This is now bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh: let her name be Woman because she was taken out of Man.

bbe@Genesis:2:24 @For this cause will a man go away from his father and his mother and be joined to his wife; and they will be one flesh.

bbe@Genesis:3:3 @But of the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden, God has said, If you take of it or put your hands on it, death will come to you.

bbe@Genesis:3:5 @For God sees that on the day when you take of its fruit, your eyes will be open, and you will be as gods, having knowledge of good and evil.

bbe@Genesis:3:6 @And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and a delight to the eyes, and to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit, and gave it to her husband.

bbe@Genesis:3:7 @And their eyes were open and they were conscious that they had no clothing and they made themselves coats of leaves stitched together.

bbe@Genesis:3:8 @And there came to them the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the evening wind: and the man and his wife went to a secret place among the trees of the garden, away from the eyes of the Lord God.

bbe@Genesis:3:13 @And the Lord God said to the woman, What have you done? And the woman said, I was tricked by the deceit of the snake and I took it.

bbe@Genesis:3:14 @And the Lord God said to the snake, Because you have done this you are cursed more than all cattle and every beast of the field; you will go flat on the earth, and dust will be your food all the days of your life:

bbe@Genesis:3:17 @And to Adam he said, Because you gave ear to the voice of your wife and took of the fruit of the tree which I said you were not to take, the earth is cursed on your account; in pain you will get your food from it all your life.

bbe@Genesis:3:22 @And the Lord God said, Now the man has become like one of us, having knowledge of good and evil; and now if he puts out his hand and takes of the fruit of the tree of life, he will go on living for ever.

bbe@Genesis:3:23 @So the Lord God sent him out of the garden of Eden to be a worker on the earth from which he was taken.

bbe@Genesis:3:24 @So he sent the man out; and at the east of the garden of Eden he put winged ones and a flaming sword turning every way to keep the way to the tree of life.

bbe@Genesis:4:1 @And the man had connection with Eve his wife, and she became with child and gave birth to Cain, and said, I have got a man from the Lord.

bbe@Genesis:4:7 @If you do well, will you not have honour? and if you do wrong, sin is waiting at the door, desiring to have you, but do not let it be your master.

bbe@Genesis:4:8 @And Cain said to his brother, Let us go into the field: and when they were in the field, Cain made an attack on his brother Abel and put him to death.

bbe@Genesis:4:10 @And he said, What have you done? the voice of your brother's blood is crying to me from the earth

bbe@Genesis:4:12 @No longer will the earth give you her fruit as the reward of your work; you will be a wanderer in flight over the earth.

bbe@Genesis:4:15 @And the Lord said, Truly, if Cain is put to death, seven lives will be taken for his. And the Lord put a mark on Cain so that no one might put him to death.

bbe@Genesis:4:16 @And Cain went away from before the face of the Lord, and made his living-place in the land of Nod on the east of Eden.

bbe@Genesis:4:17 @And Cain had connection with his wife and she became with child and gave birth to Enoch: and he made a town, and gave the town the name of Enoch after his son.

bbe@Genesis:4:18 @And Enoch had a son Irad: and Irad became the father of Mehujael: and Mehujael became the father of Methushael: and Methushael became the father of Lamech.

bbe@Genesis:4:19 @And Lamech had two wives; the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.

bbe@Genesis:4:21 @And his brother's name was Jubal: he was the father of all players on instruments of music.

bbe@Genesis:4:22 @And Zillah gave birth to Tubal-cain, who is the father of every maker of cutting instruments of brass and iron: and the sister of Tubal-cain was Naamah.

bbe@Genesis:4:23 @And Lamech said to his wives, Adah and Zillah, give ear to my voice; you wives of Lamech, give attention to my words, for I would put a man to death for a wound, and a young man for a blow;

bbe@Genesis:4:25 @And Adam had connection with his wife again, and she gave birth to a son to whom she gave the name of Seth: for she said, God has given me another seed in place of Abel, whom Cain put to death.

bbe@Genesis:4:26 @And Seth had a son, and he gave him the name of Enosh: at this time men first made use of the name of the Lord in worship.

bbe@Genesis:5:1 @This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day when God made man, he made him in the image of God;

bbe@Genesis:5:2 @Male and female he made them, naming them Man, and giving them his blessing on the day when they were made.

bbe@Genesis:5:3 @Adam had been living for a hundred and thirty years when he had a son like himself, after his image, and gave him the name of Seth:

bbe@Genesis:5:4 @And after the birth of Seth, Adam went on living for eight hundred years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:5:7 @And he went on living after the birth of Enosh for eight hundred and seven years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:5:10 @And after the birth of Kenan, Enosh went on living for eight hundred and fifteen years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:5:13 @And after the birth of Mahalalel, Kenan went on living for eight hundred and forty years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:5:16 @And after the birth of Jared, Mahalalel went on living for eight hundred and thirty years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:5:19 @And Jared went on living after the birth of Enoch for eight hundred years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:5:22 @And after the birth of Methuselah, Enoch went on in God's ways for three hundred years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:5:24 @And Enoch went on in God's ways: and he was not seen again, for God took him.

bbe@Genesis:5:26 @And after the birth of Lamech, Methuselah went on living for seven hundred and eighty-two years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:5:28 @And Lamech was a hundred and eighty-two years old when he had a son:

bbe@Genesis:5:30 @And after the birth of Noah, Lamech went on living for five hundred and ninety-five years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:6:1 @And after a time, when men were increasing on the earth, and had daughters,

bbe@Genesis:6:2 @The sons of God saw that the daughters of men were fair; and they took wives for themselves from those who were pleasing to them.

bbe@Genesis:6:3 @And the Lord said, My spirit will not be in man for ever, for he is only flesh; so the days of his life will be a hundred and twenty years.

bbe@Genesis:6:4 @There were men of great strength and size on the earth in those days; and after that, when the sons of God had connection with the daughters of men, they gave birth to children: these were the great men of old days, the men of great name.

bbe@Genesis:6:5 @And the Lord saw that the sin of man was great on the earth, and that all the thoughts of his heart were evil.

bbe@Genesis:6:6 @And the Lord had sorrow because he had made man on the earth, and grief was in his heart.

bbe@Genesis:6:7 @And the Lord said, I will take away man, whom I have made, from the face of the earth, even man and beast and that which goes on the earth and every bird of the air; for I have sorrow for having made them.

bbe@Genesis:6:9 @These are the generations of Noah. Noah was an upright man and without sin in his generation: he went in the ways of God.

bbe@Genesis:6:10 @And Noah had three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

bbe@Genesis:6:12 @And God, looking on the earth, saw that it was evil: for the way of all flesh had become evil on the earth.

bbe@Genesis:6:15 @And this is the way you are to make it: it is to be three hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide, and thirty cubits high.

bbe@Genesis:6:16 @You are to put a window in the ark, a cubit from the roof, and a door in the side of it, and you are to make it with a lower and second and third floors.

bbe@Genesis:6:17 @For truly, I will send a great flow of waters over the earth, for the destruction from under the heaven of all flesh in which is the breath of life; everything on the earth will come to an end.

bbe@Genesis:6:18 @But with you I will make an agreement; and you will come into the ark, you and your sons and your wife and your sons' wives with you.

bbe@Genesis:6:20 @Two of every sort of bird and cattle and of every sort of living thing which goes on the earth will you take with you to keep them from destruction.

bbe@Genesis:7:1 @And the Lord said to Noah, Take all your family and go into the ark, for you only in this generation have I seen to be upright.

bbe@Genesis:7:3 @And of the birds of the air, seven males and seven females, so that their seed may still be living on the face of the earth.

bbe@Genesis:7:4 @For after seven days I will send rain on the earth for forty days and forty nights, for the destruction of every living thing which I have made on the face of the earth.

bbe@Genesis:7:7 @And Noah, with his sons and his wife and his sons' wives, went into the ark because of the flowing of the waters.

bbe@Genesis:7:8 @Of clean beasts, and of beasts which are not clean, and of birds, and of everything which goes on the earth,

bbe@Genesis:7:11 @In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, all the fountains of the great deep came bursting through, and the windows of heaven were open;

bbe@Genesis:7:12 @And rain came down on the earth for forty days and forty nights.

bbe@Genesis:7:13 @On the same day Noah, with Shem, Ham, and Japheth, his sons, and his wife and his sons' wives, went into the ark;

bbe@Genesis:7:14 @And with them, every sort of beast and cattle, and every sort of thing which goes on the earth, and every sort of bird.

bbe@Genesis:7:18 @And the waters overcame everything and were increased greatly on the earth, and the ark was resting on the face of the waters.

bbe@Genesis:7:19 @And the waters overcame everything on the earth; and all the mountains under heaven were covered.

bbe@Genesis:7:21 @And destruction came on every living thing moving on the earth, birds and cattle and beasts and everything which went on the earth, and every man.

bbe@Genesis:7:22 @Everything on the dry land, in which was the breath of life, came to its end.

bbe@Genesis:7:23 @Every living thing on the face of all the earth, man and cattle and things moving on the face of the earth, and birds of the air, came to destruction: only Noah and those who were with him in the ark, were kept from death.

bbe@Genesis:8:4 @And on the seventeenth day of the seventh month the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat.

bbe@Genesis:8:5 @And still the waters went on falling, till on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains were seen.

bbe@Genesis:8:7 @Noah sent out a raven, which went this way and that till the waters were gone from the earth.

bbe@Genesis:8:8 @And he sent out a dove, to see if the waters had gone from the face of the earth;

bbe@Genesis:8:11 @And the dove came back at evening, and in her mouth was an olive-leaf broken off: so Noah was certain that the waters had gone down on the earth.

bbe@Genesis:8:13 @And in the six hundred and first year, on the first day of the first month, the waters were dry on the earth: and Noah took the cover off the ark and saw that the face of the earth was dry.

bbe@Genesis:8:14 @And on the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was dry.

bbe@Genesis:8:16 @Go out of the ark, you and your wife and your sons and your sons' wives.

bbe@Genesis:8:17 @Take out with you every living thing which is with you, birds and cattle and everything which goes on the earth, so that they may have offspring and be fertile and be increased on the earth.

bbe@Genesis:8:18 @And Noah went out with his sons and his wife and his sons' wives;

bbe@Genesis:8:19 @And every beast and bird and every living thing of every sort which goes on the earth, went out of the ark.

bbe@Genesis:8:20 @And Noah made an altar to the Lord, and from every clean beast and bird he made burned offerings on the altar.

bbe@Genesis:8:21 @And when the sweet smell came up to the Lord, he said in his heart, I will not again put a curse on the earth because of man, for the thoughts of man's heart are evil from his earliest days; never again will I send destruction on all living things as I have done.

bbe@Genesis:8:22 @While the earth goes on, seed time and the getting in of the grain, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, will not come to an end.

bbe@Genesis:9:1 @And God gave his blessing to Noah and his sons, and said, Be fertile, and have increase, and make the earth full.

bbe@Genesis:9:2 @And the fear of you will be strong in every beast of the earth and every bird of the air; everything which goes on the land, and all the fishes of the sea, are given into your hands.

bbe@Genesis:9:7 @And now, be fertile and have increase; have offspring on the earth and become great in number.

bbe@Genesis:9:8 @And God said to Noah and to his sons,

bbe@Genesis:9:11 @And I will make my agreement with you; never again will all flesh be cut off by the waters; never again will the waters come over all the earth for its destruction.

bbe@Genesis:9:12 @And God said, This is the sign of the agreement which I make between me and you and every living thing with you, for all future generations:

bbe@Genesis:9:15 @And I will keep in mind the agreement between me and you and every living thing; and never again will there be a great flow of waters causing destruction to all flesh.

bbe@Genesis:9:16 @And the bow will be in the cloud, and looking on it, I will keep in mind the eternal agreement between God and every living thing on the earth.

bbe@Genesis:9:17 @And God said to Noah, This is the sign of the agreement which I have made between me and all flesh on the earth.

bbe@Genesis:9:18 @And the sons of Noah who went out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth; and Ham is the father of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:9:19 @These three were the sons of Noah and from them all the earth was peopled.

bbe@Genesis:9:23 @And Shem and Japheth took a robe, and putting it on their backs went in with their faces turned away, and put it over their father so that they might not see him unclothed.

bbe@Genesis:9:24 @And, awaking from his wine, Noah saw what his youngest son had done to him, and he said,

bbe@Genesis:9:28 @And Noah went on living three hundred and fifty years after the great flow of waters;

bbe@Genesis:10:1 @Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: these are the sons which they had after the great flow of waters

bbe@Genesis:10:2 @The sons of Japheth: Gomer and Magog and Madai and Javan and Tubal and Meshech and Tiras.

bbe@Genesis:10:3 @And the sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz and Riphath and Togarmah.

bbe@Genesis:10:4 @And the sons of Javan: Elishah and Tarshish, the Kittim and the Dodanim.

bbe@Genesis:10:5 @From these came the nations of the sea-lands, with their different families and languages.

bbe@Genesis:10:6 @And the sons of Ham: Cush and Mizraim and Put and Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:10:7 @And the sons of Cush: Seba and Havilah and Sabtah and Raamah and Sabteca; and the sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.

bbe@Genesis:10:15 @And Canaan was the father of Zidon, who was his oldest son, and Heth,

bbe@Genesis:10:18 @And the Arvadite and the Zemarite and the Hamathite; after that the families of the Canaanites went far and wide in all directions;

bbe@Genesis:10:19 @Their country stretching from Zidon to Gaza, in the direction of Gerar; and to Lasha, in the direction of Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboiim.

bbe@Genesis:10:20 @All these, with their different families, languages, lands, and nations, are the offspring of Ham.

bbe@Genesis:10:21 @And Shem, the older brother of Japheth, the father of the children of Eber, had other sons in addition.

bbe@Genesis:10:22 @These are the sons of Shem: Elam and Asshur and Arpachshad and Lud and Aram.

bbe@Genesis:10:23 @And the sons of Aram: Uz and Hul and Gether and Mash.

bbe@Genesis:10:25 @And Eber had two sons: the name of the one was Peleg, because in his time the peoples of the earth became separate; and his brother's name was Joktan.

bbe@Genesis:10:29 @And Ophir and Havilah and Jobab; all these were the sons of Joktan.

bbe@Genesis:10:30 @And their country was from Mesha, in the direction of Sephar, the mountain of the east.

bbe@Genesis:10:31 @These, with their families and their languages and their lands and their nations, are the offspring of Shem.

bbe@Genesis:10:32 @These are the families of the sons of Noah, in the order of their generations and their nations: from these came all the nations of the earth after the great flow of waters.

bbe@Genesis:11:1 @And all the earth had one language and one tongue.

bbe@Genesis:11:3 @And they said one to another, Come, let us make bricks, burning them well. And they had bricks for stone, putting them together with sticky earth.

bbe@Genesis:11:6 @And the Lord said, See, they are all one people and have all one language; and this is only the start of what they may do: and now it will not be possible to keep them from any purpose of theirs.

bbe@Genesis:11:7 @Come, let us go down and take away the sense of their language, so that they will not be able to make themselves clear to one another.

bbe@Genesis:11:10 @These are the generations of Shem. Shem was a hundred years old when he became the father of Arpachshad, two years after the great flow of waters;

bbe@Genesis:11:11 @And after the birth of Arpachshad, Shem went on living for five hundred years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:13 @And after the birth of Shelah, Arpachshad went on living for four hundred and three years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:15 @And after the birth of Eber, Shelah went on living for four hundred and three years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:17 @And after the birth of Peleg, Eber went on living for four hundred and thirty years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:19 @And after the birth of Reu, Peleg went on living for two hundred and nine years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:21 @And after the birth of Serug, Reu went on living for two hundred and seven years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:23 @And after the birth of Nahor, Serug went on living for two hundred years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:25 @And after the birth of Terah, Nahor went on living for a hundred and nineteen years, and had sons and daughters:

bbe@Genesis:11:27 @These are the generations of Terah: Terah was the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran was the father of Lot.

bbe@Genesis:11:31 @And Terah took Abram, his son, and Lot, the son of Haran, and Sarai, his daughter-in-law, the wife of his son Abram and they went out from Ur of the Chaldees, to go to the land of Canaan; and they came to Haran, and were there for some time.

bbe@Genesis:12:2 @And I will make of you a great nation, blessing you and making your name great; and you will be a blessing:

bbe@Genesis:12:3 @To them who are good to you will I give blessing, and on him who does you wrong will I put my curse: and you will become a name of blessing to all the families of the earth.

bbe@Genesis:12:5 @And Abram took Sarai, his wife, and Lot, his brother's son, and all their goods and the servants which they had got in Haran, and they went out to go to the land of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:12:8 @And moving on from there to the mountain on the east of Beth-el, he put up his tent, having Beth-el on the west and Ai on the east: and there he made an altar and gave worship to the name of the Lord.

bbe@Genesis:12:9 @And he went on, journeying still to the South.

bbe@Genesis:12:13 @Say, then, that you are my sister, and so it will be well with me because of you, and my life will be kept safe on your account

bbe@Genesis:12:14 @And so it was that when Abram came into Egypt, the men of Egypt, looking on the woman, saw that she was fair.

bbe@Genesis:12:17 @And the Lord sent great troubles on Pharaoh's house because of Sarai, Abram's wife.

bbe@Genesis:12:18 @Then Pharaoh sent for Abram, and said, What have you done to me? why did you not say that she was your wife?

bbe@Genesis:12:19 @Why did you say that she was your sister? so that I took her for my wife: now, take your wife and go on your way.

bbe@Genesis:12:20 @And Pharaoh gave orders to his men, and they sent him on his way, with his wife and all he had.

bbe@Genesis:13:3 @And travelling on from the South, he came to Beth-el, to the place where his tent had been before, between Beth-el and Ai;

bbe@Genesis:13:10 @And Lot, lifting up his eyes and looking an the valley of Jordan, saw that it was well watered everywhere, before the Lord had sent destruction on Sodom and Gomorrah; it was like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt, on the way to Zoar.

bbe@Genesis:13:11 @So Lot took for himself all the valley of Jordan, and went to the east, and they were parted from one another.

bbe@Genesis:13:12 @Abram went on living in the land of Canaan, and Lot went to the lowland towns, moving his tent as far as Sodom.

bbe@Genesis:13:17 @Come, go through all the land from one end to the other for I will give it to you.

bbe@Genesis:13:18 @And Abram, moving his tent, came and made his living-place by the holy tree of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and made an altar there to the Lord.

bbe@Genesis:14:4 @For twelve years they were under the rule of Chedorlaomer, but in the thirteenth year they put off his control.

bbe@Genesis:14:5 @And in the fourteenth year, Chedorlaomer and the kings who were on his side, overcame the Rephaim in Ashteroth-karnaim, and the Zuzim in Ham, and the Emim in Shaveh-kiriathaim,

bbe@Genesis:14:7 @Then they came back to En-mishpat (which is Kadesh), making waste all the country of the Amalekites and of the Amorites living in Hazazon-tamar.

bbe@Genesis:14:8 @And the king of Sodom with the king of Gomorrah and the king of Admah and the king of Zeboiim and the king of Bela (that is Zoar), went out, and put their forces in position in the valley of Siddim,

bbe@Genesis:14:11 @And the four kings took all the goods and food from Sodom and Gomorrah and went on their way.

bbe@Genesis:14:12 @And in addition they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who was living in Sodom, and all his goods.

bbe@Genesis:14:13 @And one who had got away from the fight came and gave word of it to Abram the Hebrew, who was living by the holy tree of Mamre, the Amorite, the brother of Eshcol and Aner, who were friends of Abram.

bbe@Genesis:14:14 @And Abram, hearing that his brother's son had been made a prisoner, took a band of his trained men, three hundred and eighteen of them, sons of his house, and went after them as far as Dan.

bbe@Genesis:14:15 @And separating his forces by night, he overcame them, putting them to flight and going after them as far as Hobah, which is on the north side of Damascus.

bbe@Genesis:14:16 @And he got back all the goods, and Lot, his brother's son, with his goods and the women and the people.

bbe@Genesis:14:19 @And blessing him, said, May the blessing of the Most High God, maker of heaven and earth, be on Abram:

bbe@Genesis:14:21 @And the king of Sodom said to Abram, Give me the prisoners and take the goods for yourself.

bbe@Genesis:15:1 @After these things, the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision, saying, Have no fear, Abram: I will keep you safe, and great will be your reward.

bbe@Genesis:15:4 @Then said the Lord, This man will not get the heritage, but a son of your body will have your property after you.

bbe@Genesis:15:9 @And he said, Take a young cow of three years old, and a she-goat of three years old, and a sheep of three years old, and a dove and a young pigeon.

bbe@Genesis:15:10 @All these he took, cutting them in two and putting one half opposite the other, but not cutting the birds in two.

bbe@Genesis:15:11 @And evil birds came down on the bodies, but Abram sent them away.

bbe@Genesis:15:12 @Now when the sun was going down, a deep sleep came on Abram, and a dark cloud of fear.

bbe@Genesis:15:14 @But I will be the judge of that nation whose servants they are, and they will come out from among them with great wealth.

bbe@Genesis:15:15 @As for you, you will go to your fathers in peace; at the end of a long life you will be put in your last resting-place.

bbe@Genesis:15:16 @And in the fourth generation they will come back here; for at present the sin of the Amorite is not full.

bbe@Genesis:15:19 @The Kenite, the Kenizzite, and the Kadmonite,

bbe@Genesis:16:4 @And he went in to Hagar and she became with child, and when she saw that she was with child, she no longer had any respect for her master's wife.

bbe@Genesis:16:5 @And Sarai said to Abram, May my wrong be on you: I gave you my servant for your wife and when she saw that she was with child, she no longer had any respect for me: may the Lord be judge between you and me.

bbe@Genesis:16:7 @And an angel of the Lord came to her by a fountain of water in the waste land, by the fountain on the way to Shur.

bbe@Genesis:16:11 @And the angel of the Lord said, See, you are with child and will give birth to a son, to whom you will give the name Ishmael, because the ears of the Lord were open to your sorrow.

bbe@Genesis:16:12 @And he will be like a mountain ass among men; his hand will be against every man and every man's hand against him, and he will keep his place against all his brothers.

bbe@Genesis:16:13 @And to the Lord who was talking with her she gave this name, You are a God who is seen; for she said, Have I not even here in the waste land had a vision of God and am still living?

bbe@Genesis:16:14 @So that fountain was named, Fountain of Life and Vision: it is between Kadesh and Bered.

bbe@Genesis:16:15 @And Hagar gave birth to a child, the son of Abram, to whom Abram gave the name of Ishmael.

bbe@Genesis:17:3 @And Abram went down on his face on the earth, and the Lord God went on talking with him, and said,

bbe@Genesis:17:4 @As for me, my agreement is made with you, and you will be the father of nations without end.

bbe@Genesis:17:5 @No longer will your name be Abram, but Abraham, for I have made you the father of a number of nations.

bbe@Genesis:17:6 @I will make you very fertile, so that nations will come from you and kings will be your offspring.

bbe@Genesis:17:7 @And I will make between me and you and your seed after you through all generations, an eternal agreement to be a God to you and to your seed after you.

bbe@Genesis:17:9 @And God said to Abraham, On your side, you are to keep the agreement, you and your seed after you through all generations.

bbe@Genesis:17:10 @And this is the agreement which you are to keep with me, you and your seed after you: every male among you is to undergo circumcision.

bbe@Genesis:17:12 @Every male among you, from one generation to another, is to undergo circumcision when he is eight days old, with every servant whose birth takes place in your house, or for whom you gave money to someone of another country, and not of your seed.

bbe@Genesis:17:13 @He who comes to birth in your house and he who is made yours for a price, all are to undergo circumcision; so that my agreement may be marked in your flesh, an agreement for all time.

bbe@Genesis:17:14 @And any male who does not undergo circumcision will be cut off from his people: my agreement has been broken by him.

bbe@Genesis:17:16 @And I will give her a blessing so that you will have a son by her: truly my blessing will be on her, and she will be the mother of nations: kings of peoples will be her offspring.

bbe@Genesis:17:17 @Then Abraham went down on his face, and laughing, said in his heart, May a man a hundred years old have a child? will Sarah, at ninety years old, give birth?

bbe@Genesis:17:18 @And Abraham said to God, If only Ishmael's life might be your care!

bbe@Genesis:17:19 @And God said, Not so; but Sarah, your wife, will have a son, and you will give him the name Isaac, and I will make my agreement with him for ever and with his seed after him.

bbe@Genesis:17:20 @As for Ishmael, I have given ear to your prayer: truly I have given him my blessing and I will make him fertile and give him great increase; he will be the father of twelve chiefs, and I will make him a great nation.

bbe@Genesis:17:23 @And Abraham took Ishmael, his son, and all whose birth had taken place in his house, and all his servants whom he had made his for a price, every male of his house, and on that very day he gave them circumcision in the flesh of their private parts as God had said to him

bbe@Genesis:17:24 @Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he underwent circumcision.

bbe@Genesis:17:25 @And Ishmael, his son, was thirteen years old when he underwent circumcision.

bbe@Genesis:17:26 @Abraham and Ishmael, his son, underwent circumcision on that very day.

bbe@Genesis:17:27 @And all the men of his house, those whose birth had taken place in the house and those whom he had got for money from men of other lands, underwent circumcision with him.

bbe@Genesis:18:2 @And lifting up his eyes, he saw three men before him; and seeing them, he went quickly to them from the door of the tent, and went down on his face to the earth;

bbe@Genesis:18:5 @And let me get a bit of bread to keep up your strength, and after that you may go on your way: for this is why you have come to your servant. And they said, Let it be so.

bbe@Genesis:18:10 @And he said, I will certainly come back to you in the spring, and Sarah your wife will have a son

bbe@Genesis:18:14 @Is there any wonder which the Lord is not able to do? At the time I said, in the spring, I will come back to you, and Sarah will have a child.

bbe@Genesis:18:16 @And the men went on from there in the direction of Sodom; and Abraham went with them on their way.

bbe@Genesis:18:18 @Seeing that Abraham will certainly become a great and strong nation, and his name will be used by all the nations of the earth as a blessing?

bbe@Genesis:18:22 @And the men, turning from that place, went on to Sodom: but Abraham was still waiting before the Lord.

bbe@Genesis:18:23 @And Abraham came near, and said, Will you let destruction come on the upright with the sinners?

bbe@Genesis:18:24 @If by chance there are fifty upright men in the town, will you give the place to destruction and not have mercy on it because of the fifty upright men?

bbe@Genesis:18:26 @And the Lord said, If there are fifty upright men in the town, I will have mercy on it because of them.

bbe@Genesis:18:27 @And Abraham answering said, Truly, I who am only dust, have undertaken to put my thoughts before the Lord:

bbe@Genesis:18:28 @If by chance there are five less than fifty upright men, will you give up all the town to destruction because of these five? And he said, I will not give it to destruction if there are forty-five.

bbe@Genesis:18:32 @And he said, O let not the Lord be angry and I will say only one word more: by chance there may be ten there. And he said, I will have mercy because of the ten.

bbe@Genesis:18:33 @And the Lord went on his way when his talk with Abraham was ended, and Abraham went back to his place.

bbe@Genesis:19:1 @And at nightfall the two angels came to Sodom; and Lot was seated at the way into the town: and when he saw them he got up and came before them, falling down on his face to the earth.

bbe@Genesis:19:2 @And he said, My masters, come now into your servant's house and take your rest there for the night, and let your feet be washed; and early in the morning you may go on your way. And they said, Not so, but we will take our night's rest in the street.

bbe@Genesis:19:3 @But he made his request more strongly, so they went with him into his house; and he got food ready for them, and made unleavened bread, of which they took.

bbe@Genesis:19:4 @But before they had gone to bed, the men of the town, all the men of Sodom, came round the house, young and old, from every part of the town;

bbe@Genesis:19:8 @See now, I have two unmarried daughters; I will send them out to you so that you may do to them whatever seems good to you: only do nothing to these men, for this is why they have come under the shade of my roof.

bbe@Genesis:19:9 @And they said, Give way there. This one man, they said, came here from a strange country, and will he now be our judge? now we will do worse to you than to them; and pushing violently against Lot, they came near to get the door broken in.

bbe@Genesis:19:12 @Then the men said to Lot, Are there any others of your family here? sons-in-law or sons or daughters, take them all out of this place;

bbe@Genesis:19:13 @For we are about to send destruction on this place, because a great outcry against them has come to the ears of the Lord; and the Lord has sent us to put an end to the town.

bbe@Genesis:19:14 @And Lot went out and said to his sons-in-law, who were married to his daughters, Come, let us go out of this place, for the Lord is about to send destruction on the town. But his sons-in-law did not take him seriously.

bbe@Genesis:19:15 @And when morning came, the angels did all in their power to make Lot go, saying, Get up quickly and take your wife and your two daughters who are here, and go, for fear that you come to destruction in the punishment of the town.

bbe@Genesis:19:16 @But while he was waiting, the men took him and his wife and his daughters by the hand, for the Lord had mercy on them, and put them outside the town.

bbe@Genesis:19:17 @And when they had put them out, he said, Go for your life, without looking back or waiting in the lowland; go quickly to the mountain or you will come to destruction.

bbe@Genesis:19:19 @See now, your servant has had grace in your eyes and great is your mercy in keeping my life from destruction, but I am not able to get as far as the mountain before evil overtakes me and death;

bbe@Genesis:19:20 @This town, now, is near, and it is a little one: O, let me go there (is it not a little one?) so that my life may be safe.

bbe@Genesis:19:21 @And he said, See, I have given you your request in this one thing more: I will not send destruction on this town.

bbe@Genesis:19:22 @Go there quickly, for I am not able to do anything till you have come there. For this reason, the town was named Zoar.

bbe@Genesis:19:24 @Then the Lord sent fire and flaming smoke raining down from heaven on Sodom and Gomorrah.

bbe@Genesis:19:25 @And he sent destruction on those towns, with all the lowland and all the people of those towns and every green thing in the land.

bbe@Genesis:19:28 @And looking in the direction of Sodom and Gomorrah and the lowland, he saw the smoke of the land going up like the smoke of an oven.

bbe@Genesis:19:29 @So it came about that when God sent destruction on the towns of the lowland, he kept his word to Abraham, and sent Lot safely away when he put an end to the towns where he was living.

bbe@Genesis:19:34 @And on the day after, the older daughter said to the younger, Last night I was with my father; let us make him take much wine this night again, and do you go to him, so that we may have offspring by our father.

bbe@Genesis:19:37 @And the older daughter had a son, and she gave him the name Moab: he is the father of the Moabites to this day.

bbe@Genesis:19:38 @And the younger had a son and gave him the name Ben-ammi: from him come the children of Ammon to this day.

bbe@Genesis:20:1 @And Abraham went on his way from there to the land of the South, and was living between Kadesh and Shur, in Gerar.

bbe@Genesis:20:4 @Now Abimelech had not come near her; and he said, Lord, will you put to death an upright nation?

bbe@Genesis:20:5 @Did he not say to me himself, She is my sister? and she herself said, He is my brother: with an upright heart and clean hands have I done this.

bbe@Genesis:20:6 @And God said to him in the dream, I see that you have done this with an upright heart, and I have kept you from sinning against me: for this reason I did not let you come near her.

bbe@Genesis:20:9 @Then Abimelech sent for Abraham, and said, What have you done to us? what wrong have I done you that you have put on me and on my kingdom so great a sin? You have done to me things which are not to be done.

bbe@Genesis:20:16 @And he said to Sarah, See, I have given to your brother a thousand bits of silver so that your wrong may be put right; now your honour is clear in the eyes of all.

bbe@Genesis:21:2 @And Sarah became with child, and gave Abraham a son when he was old, at the time named by God.

bbe@Genesis:21:3 @And Abraham gave to his son, to whom Sarah had given birth, the name Isaac.

bbe@Genesis:21:4 @And when his son Isaac was eight days old, Abraham made him undergo circumcision, as God had said to him.

bbe@Genesis:21:6 @And Sarah said, God has given me cause for laughing, and everyone who has news of it will be laughing with me.

bbe@Genesis:21:7 @And she said, Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would have a child at her breast? for see, I have given him a son now when he is old.

bbe@Genesis:21:9 @And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian playing with Isaac.

bbe@Genesis:21:10 @So she said to Abraham, Send away that woman and her son: for the son of that woman is not to have a part in the heritage with my son Isaac.

bbe@Genesis:21:11 @And this was a great grief to Abraham because of his son.

bbe@Genesis:21:13 @And I will make a nation of the son of your servant-woman, because he is your seed.

bbe@Genesis:21:14 @And early in the morning Abraham got up, and gave Hagar some bread and a water-skin, and put the boy on her back, and sent her away: and she went, wandering in the waste land of Beer-sheba

bbe@Genesis:21:16 @And she went some distance away, about an arrow flight, and seating herself on the earth, she gave way to bitter weeping, saying, Let me not see the death of my child.

bbe@Genesis:21:18 @Come, take your child in your arms, for I will make of him a great nation.

bbe@Genesis:21:20 @And God was with the boy, and he became tall and strong, and he became a bowman, living in the waste land.

bbe@Genesis:21:23 @Now, then, give me your oath, in the name of God, that you will not be false to me or to my sons after me, but that as I have been good to you, so you will be to me and to this land where you have been living.

bbe@Genesis:21:26 @But Abimelech said, I have no idea who has done this thing; you never gave me word of it, and I had no knowledge of it till this day.

bbe@Genesis:21:28 @And Abraham put seven young lambs of the flock on one side by themselves.

bbe@Genesis:21:29 @Then Abimelech said, What are these seven lambs which you have put on one side?

bbe@Genesis:21:34 @And Abraham went on living in the land of the Philistines as in a strange country.

bbe@Genesis:22:2 @And he said to him, Take your son, your dearly loved only son Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah and give him as a burned offering on one of the mountains of which I will give you knowledge.

bbe@Genesis:22:3 @And Abraham got up early in the morning, and made ready his ass, and took with him two of his young men and Isaac, his son, and after the wood for the burned offering had been cut, he went on his way to the place of which God had given him word.

bbe@Genesis:22:4 @And on the third day, Abraham, lifting up his eyes, saw the place a long way off.

bbe@Genesis:22:5 @Then he said to his young men, Keep here with the ass; and I and the boy will go on and give worship and come back again to you.

bbe@Genesis:22:6 @And Abraham put the wood for the burned offering on his son's back, and he himself took the fire and the knife in his hand, and the two of them went on together.

bbe@Genesis:22:7 @Then Isaac said to Abraham, My father; and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, We have wood and fire here, but where is the lamb for the burned offering?

bbe@Genesis:22:8 @And Abraham said, God himself will give the lamb for the burned offering: so they went on together.

bbe@Genesis:22:9 @And they came to the place of which God had given him knowledge; and there Abraham made the altar and put the wood in place on it, and having made tight the bands round Isaac his son, he put him on the wood on the altar.

bbe@Genesis:22:10 @And stretching out his hand, Abraham took the knife to put his son to death.

bbe@Genesis:22:12 @And he said, Let not your hand be stretched out against the boy to do anything to him; for now I am certain that the fear of God is in your heart, because you have not kept back your son, your only son, from me.

bbe@Genesis:22:13 @And lifting up his eyes, Abraham saw a sheep fixed by its horns in the brushwood: and Abraham took the sheep and made a burned offering of it in place of his son.

bbe@Genesis:22:15 @And the voice of the angel of the Lord came to Abraham a second time from heaven,

bbe@Genesis:22:16 @Saying, I have taken an oath by my name, says the Lord, because you have done this and have not kept back from me your dearly loved only son,

bbe@Genesis:22:18 @And your seed will be a blessing to all the nations of the earth, because you have done what I gave you orders to do.

bbe@Genesis:23:2 @And Sarah's death took place in Kiriath-arba, that is, Hebron, in the land of Canaan: and Abraham went into his house, weeping and sorrowing for Sarah.

bbe@Genesis:23:4 @I am living among you as one from a strange country: give me some land here as my property, so that I may put my dead to rest.

bbe@Genesis:23:6 @My lord, truly you are a great chief among us; take the best of our resting-places for your dead; not one of us will keep back from you a place where you may put your dead to rest.

bbe@Genesis:23:7 @And Abraham got up and gave honour to the children of Heth, the people of that land.

bbe@Genesis:23:8 @And he said to them, If you will let me put my dead to rest here, make a request for me to Ephron, the son of Zohar,

bbe@Genesis:23:9 @That he will give me the hollow in the rock named Machpelah, which is his property at the end of his field; let him give it to me for its full price as a resting-place for my dead among you.

bbe@Genesis:23:10 @Now Ephron was seated among the children of Heth: and Ephron the Hittite gave Abraham his answer in the hearing of the children of Heth, and of all those who came into his town, saying,

bbe@Genesis:23:12 @And Abraham went down on his face before the people of the land.

bbe@Genesis:23:13 @And Abraham said to Ephron, in the hearing of the people of the land, If only you will give ear to me, I will give you the price of the field; take it, and let me put my dead to rest there.

bbe@Genesis:23:14 @So Ephron said to Abraham,

bbe@Genesis:23:16 @And Abraham took note of the price fixed by Ephron in the hearing of the children of Heth, and gave him four hundred shekels in current money.

bbe@Genesis:23:17 @So Ephron's field at Machpelah near Mamre, with the hollow in the rock and all the trees in the field and round it,

bbe@Genesis:23:19 @Then Abraham put Sarah his wife to rest in the hollow rock in the field of Machpelah near Mamre, that is, Hebron in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:24:1 @Now Abraham was old and far on in years: and the Lord had given him everything in full measure.

bbe@Genesis:24:3 @And take an oath by the Lord, the God of heaven and the God of the earth, that you will not get a wife for my son Isaac from the daughters of the Canaanites among whom I am living;

bbe@Genesis:24:4 @But that you will go into my country and to my relations and get a wife there for my son Isaac.

bbe@Genesis:24:5 @And the servant said, If by chance the woman will not come with me into this land, am I to take your son back again to the land from which you came?

bbe@Genesis:24:6 @And Abraham said, Take care that you do not let my son go back to that land.

bbe@Genesis:24:7 @The Lord God of heaven, who took me from my father's house and from the land of my birth, and made an oath to me, saying, To your seed I will give this land: he will send his angel before you and give you a wife for my son in that land.

bbe@Genesis:24:8 @And if the woman will not come with you, then you are free from this oath; only do not take my son back there.

bbe@Genesis:24:14 @Now, may the girl to whom I say, Let down your vessel and give me a drink, and who says in answer, Here is a drink for you and let me give water to your camels: may she be the one marked out by you for your servant Isaac: so may I be certain that you have been good to my master Abraham.

bbe@Genesis:24:15 @And even before his words were ended, Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel, the son of Milcah, who was the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, came out with her water-vessel on her arm.

bbe@Genesis:24:18 @And she said, Take a drink, my lord: and quickly letting down her vessel onto her hand, she gave him a drink.

bbe@Genesis:24:19 @And having done so, she said, I will get water for your camels till they have had enough.

bbe@Genesis:24:24 @And she said to him, I am the daughter of Bethuel, the son of Milcah, Nahor's wife.

bbe@Genesis:24:30 @And when he saw the nose-ring and the ornaments on his sister's hands, and when she gave him word of what the man had said to her, then he went out to the man who was waiting with the camels by the water-spring.

bbe@Genesis:24:31 @And he said to him, Come in, you on whom is the blessing of the Lord; why are you waiting outside? for I have made the house ready for you, and a place for the camels.

bbe@Genesis:24:36 @And when Sarah, my master's wife, was old, she gave birth to a son, to whom he has given all he has.

bbe@Genesis:24:37 @And my master made me take an oath, saying, Do not get a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites among whom I am living;

bbe@Genesis:24:38 @But go to my father's house and to my relations for a wife for my son.

bbe@Genesis:24:40 @And he said, The Lord, whom I have ever kept before me, will send his angel with you, who will make it possible for you to get a wife for my son from my relations and my father's house;

bbe@Genesis:24:44 @Take a drink, and I will get water for your camels; let her be the woman marked out by the Lord for my master's son.

bbe@Genesis:24:45 @And even while I was saying this to myself, Rebekah came out with her vessel on her arm; and she went down to the spring to get water; and I said to her, Give me a drink.

bbe@Genesis:24:47 @And questioning her, I said, Whose daughter are you? And she said, The daughter of Bethuel, the son of Nahor, and Milcah his wife. Then I put the ring on her nose and the ornaments on her hands.

bbe@Genesis:24:48 @And with bent head I gave worship and praise to the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, by whom I had been guided in the right way, to get the daughter of my master's brother for his son.

bbe@Genesis:24:51 @See, here is Rebekah: take her and go, and let her be your master's son's wife, as the Lord has said.

bbe@Genesis:24:52 @And at these words, Abraham's servant went down on his face and gave praise to the Lord.

bbe@Genesis:24:57 @And they said, We will send for the girl, and let her make the decision.

bbe@Genesis:24:61 @So Rebekah and her servant-women went with the man, seated on the camels; and so the servant took Rebekah and went on his way.

bbe@Genesis:24:66 @Then the servant gave Isaac the story of all he had done.

bbe@Genesis:25:6 @But to the sons of his other women he gave offerings, and sent them away, while he was still living, into the east country.

bbe@Genesis:25:9 @And Isaac and Ishmael, his sons, put him to rest in the hollow rock of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron, the son of Zohar the Hittite, near Mamre;

bbe@Genesis:25:11 @Now after the death of Abraham, the blessing of God was with Isaac, his son.

bbe@Genesis:25:12 @Now these are the generations of Ishmael, the son of Abraham, whose mother was Hagar the Egyptian, the servant of Sarah:

bbe@Genesis:25:13 @These are the names of the sons of Ishmael by their generations: Ishmael's first son was Nebaioth; then Kedar and Adbeel and Mibsam

bbe@Genesis:25:16 @These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names in their towns and their tent-circles; twelve chiefs with their peoples.

bbe@Genesis:25:19 @Now these are the generations of Abraham's son Isaac:

bbe@Genesis:25:22 @And the children were fighting together inside her, and she said, If it is to be so, why am I like this? So she went to put her question to the Lord.

bbe@Genesis:25:23 @And the Lord said to her, Two nations are in your body, and two peoples will come to birth from you: the one will be stronger than the other, and the older will be the servant of the younger.

bbe@Genesis:25:29 @And one day Jacob was cooking some soup when Esau came in from the fields in great need of food;

bbe@Genesis:25:30 @And Esau said to Jacob, Give me a full meal of that red soup, for I am overcome with need for food: for this reason he was named Edom.

bbe@Genesis:26:2 @And the Lord came to him in a vision and said, Do not go down to Egypt; keep in the land of which I will give you knowledge:

bbe@Genesis:26:4 @I will make your seed like the stars of heaven in number, and will give them all these lands, and your seed will be a blessing to all the nations of the earth;

bbe@Genesis:26:6 @So Isaac went on living in Gerar;

bbe@Genesis:26:7 @And when he was questioned by the men of the place about his wife, he said, She is my sister; fearing to say, She is my wife; for, he said, the men of the place may put me to death on account of Rebekah; because she is very beautiful.

bbe@Genesis:26:10 @Then Abimelech said, What have you done to us? one of the people might well have had connection with your wife, and the sin would have been ours.

bbe@Genesis:26:11 @And Abimelech gave orders to his people that anyone touching Isaac or his wife was to be put to death

bbe@Genesis:26:12 @Now Isaac, planting seed in that land, got in the same year fruit a hundred times as much, for the blessing of the Lord was on him.

bbe@Genesis:26:16 @And Abimelech said to Isaac, Go away from us, for you are stronger than we are.

bbe@Genesis:26:23 @And from there he went on to Beer-sheba.

bbe@Genesis:26:24 @That night the Lord came to him in a vision, and said, I am the God of your father Abraham: have no fear for I am with you, blessing you, and your seed will be increased because of my servant Abraham.

bbe@Genesis:26:29 @That you will do us no damage, even as we put no hand on you, and did you nothing but good, and sent you away in peace: and now the blessing of the Lord is on you.

bbe@Genesis:26:31 @And early in the morning they took an oath one to the other: then Isaac sent them away and they went on their way in peace.

bbe@Genesis:26:34 @And when Esau was forty years old, he took as his wives Judith, the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Basemath, the daughter of Elon the Hittite:

bbe@Genesis:27:1 @Now when Isaac was old and his eyes had become clouded so that he was not able to see, he sent for Esau, his first son, and said to him, My son: and he said, Here am I.

bbe@Genesis:27:5 @Now Isaac's words to his son were said in Rebekah's hearing. Then Esau went out to get the meat.

bbe@Genesis:27:6 @And Rebekah said to Jacob, her son, Your father said to your brother Esau in my hearing,

bbe@Genesis:27:8 @Now, my son, do what I say.

bbe@Genesis:27:12 @If by chance my father puts his hand on me, it will seem to him that I am tricking him, and he will put a curse on me in place of a blessing.

bbe@Genesis:27:13 @And his mother said, Let the curse be on me, my son: only do as I say, and go and get them for me

bbe@Genesis:27:15 @And Rebekah took the fair robes of her oldest son, which were with her in the house, and put them on Jacob, her younger son:

bbe@Genesis:27:16 @And she put the skins of the young goats on his hands and on the smooth part of his neck:

bbe@Genesis:27:17 @And she gave into the hand of Jacob, her son, the meat and the bread which she had made ready.

bbe@Genesis:27:18 @And he came to his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I: who are you, my son?

bbe@Genesis:27:19 @And Jacob said, I am Esau, your oldest son; I have done as you said: come now, be seated and take of my meat, so that you may give me a blessing.

bbe@Genesis:27:20 @And Isaac said, How is it that you have got it so quickly, my son? And he said, Because the Lord your God made it come my way.

bbe@Genesis:27:21 @And Isaac said, Come near so that I may put my hand on you, my son, and see if you are truly my son Esau or not.

bbe@Genesis:27:22 @And Jacob went near his father Isaac: and he put his hands on him; and he said, The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.

bbe@Genesis:27:24 @And he said, Are you truly my son Esau? And he said, I am.

bbe@Genesis:27:25 @And he said, Put it before me and I will take of my son's meat, so that I may give you a blessing. And he put it before him and he took it; and he gave him wine, and he had a drink.

bbe@Genesis:27:26 @And his father Isaac said to him, Come near now, my son, and give me a kiss.

bbe@Genesis:27:27 @And he came near and gave him a kiss; and smelling the smell of his clothing, he gave him a blessing, and said, See, the smell of my son is like the smell of a field on which the blessing of the Lord has come:

bbe@Genesis:27:29 @Let peoples be your servants, and nations go down before you: be lord over your brothers, and let your mother's sons go down before you: a curse be on everyone by whom you are cursed, and a blessing on those who give you a blessing.

bbe@Genesis:27:30 @And when Isaac had come to the end of blessing Jacob, and Jacob had not long gone away from Isaac his father, Esau came in from the field.

bbe@Genesis:27:31 @And he made ready a meal, good to the taste, and took it to his father, and said to him, Let my father get up and take of his son's meat, so that you may give me a blessing.

bbe@Genesis:27:32 @And Isaac his father said to him, Who are you? And he said, I am your oldest son, Esau.

bbe@Genesis:27:37 @And Isaac answering said, But I have made him your master, and have given him all his brothers for servants; I have made him strong with grain and wine: what then am I to do for you, my son?

bbe@Genesis:27:38 @And Esau said to his father, Is that the only blessing you have, my father? give a blessing to me, even me! And Esau was overcome with weeping.

bbe@Genesis:27:39 @Then Isaac his father made answer and said to him, Far from the fertile places of the earth, and far from the dew of heaven on high will your living-place be:

bbe@Genesis:27:42 @Then Rebekah, hearing what Esau had said, sent for Jacob, her younger son, and said to him, It seems that your brother Esau is purposing to put you to death.

bbe@Genesis:27:43 @So now, my son, do what I say: go quickly to Haran, to my brother Laban;

bbe@Genesis:27:45 @Till the memory of what you have done to him is past and he is no longer angry: then I will send word for you to come back; are the two of you to be taken from me in one day?

bbe@Genesis:27:46 @Then Rebekah said to Isaac, My life is a weariness to me because of the daughters of Heth: if Jacob takes a wife from among the daughters of Heth, such as these, the women of this land, of what use will my life be to me?

bbe@Genesis:28:1 @Then Isaac sent for Jacob, and blessing him, said, Do not take a wife from among the women of Canaan;

bbe@Genesis:28:5 @So Isaac sent Jacob away: and he went to Paddan-aram, to Laban, son of Bethuel the Aramaean, the brother of Rebekah, the mother of Jacob and Esau.

bbe@Genesis:28:6 @So when Esau saw that Isaac had given Jacob his blessing, and sent him away to Paddan-aram to get a wife for himself there, blessing him and saying to him, Do not take a wife from among the women of Canaan;

bbe@Genesis:28:7 @And that Jacob had done as his father and mother said and had gone to Paddan-aram;

bbe@Genesis:28:9 @So Esau went to Ishmael and took Mahalath, the daughter of Abraham's son Ishmael, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife in addition to the wives he had.

bbe@Genesis:28:11 @And coming to a certain place, he made it his resting-place for the night, for the sun had gone down; and he took one of the stones which were there, and putting it under his head he went to sleep in that place.

bbe@Genesis:28:12 @And he had a dream, and in his dream he saw steps stretching from earth to heaven, and the angels of God were going up and down on them.

bbe@Genesis:28:13 @And he saw the Lord by his side, saying, I am the Lord, the God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac: I will give to you and to your seed this land on which you are sleeping.

bbe@Genesis:28:15 @And truly, I will be with you, and will keep you wherever you go, guiding you back again to this land; and I will not give you up till I have done what I have said to you

bbe@Genesis:28:16 @And Jacob, awaking from his sleep, said, Truly, the Lord is in this place and I was not conscious of it.

bbe@Genesis:28:17 @And fear came on him, and he said, This is a holy place; this is nothing less than the house of God and the doorway of heaven.

bbe@Genesis:28:18 @And early in the morning Jacob took the stone which had been under his head, and put it up as a pillar and put oil on it.

bbe@Genesis:28:20 @Then Jacob took an oath, and said, If God will be with me, and keep me safe on my journey, and give me food and clothing to put on,

bbe@Genesis:28:22 @And this stone which I have put up for a pillar will be God's house: and of all you give me, I will give a tenth part to you.

bbe@Genesis:29:1 @Then Jacob went on his journey till he came to the land of the children of the East.

bbe@Genesis:29:2 @And there he saw a water-hole in a field, and by the side of it three flocks of sheep, for there they got water for the sheep: and on the mouth of the water-hole there was a great stone.

bbe@Genesis:29:3 @And all the flocks would come together there, and when the stone had been rolled away, they would give the sheep water, and put the stone back again in its place on the mouth of the water-hole.

bbe@Genesis:29:5 @And he said to them, Have you any knowledge of Laban, the son of Nahor? And they said, We have.

bbe@Genesis:29:8 @And they said, We are not able to do so till all the flocks have come together and the stone has been rolled away from the mouth of the water-hole; then we will get water for the sheep.

bbe@Genesis:29:10 @Then when Jacob saw Rachel, the daughter of Laban, his mother's brother, coming with Laban's sheep, he came near, and rolling the stone away from the mouth of the hole, he got water for Laban's flock.

bbe@Genesis:29:12 @And Rachel, hearing from Jacob that he was her father's relation and that he was the son of Rebekah, went running to give her father news of it.

bbe@Genesis:29:13 @And Laban, hearing news of Jacob, his sister's son, came running, and took Jacob in his arms, and kissing him, made him come into his house. And Jacob gave him news of everything.

bbe@Genesis:29:14 @And Laban said to him, Truly, you are my bone and my flesh. And he kept Jacob with him for the space of a month.

bbe@Genesis:29:19 @And Laban said, It is better for you to have her than another man: go on living here with me.

bbe@Genesis:29:20 @And Jacob did seven years' work for Rachel; and because of his love for her it seemed to him only a very little time.

bbe@Genesis:29:25 @And in the morning Jacob saw that it was Leah: and he said to Laban, What have you done to me? was I not working for you so that I might have Rachel? why have you been false to me?

bbe@Genesis:29:27 @Let the week of the bride-feast come to its end and then we will give you the other in addition, if you will be my servant for another seven years.

bbe@Genesis:29:30 @Then Jacob took Rachel as his wife, and his love for her was greater than his love for Leah; and he went on working for Laban for another seven years.

bbe@Genesis:29:32 @And Leah was with child, and gave birth to a son to whom she gave the name Reuben: for she said, The Lord has seen my sorrow; now my husband will have love for me.

bbe@Genesis:29:33 @Then she became with child again, and gave birth to a son; and said, Because it has come to the Lord's ears that I am not loved, he has given me this son in addition: and she gave him the name Simeon.

bbe@Genesis:29:34 @And she was with child again, and gave birth to a son; and said, Now at last my husband will be united to me, because I have given him three sons: so he was named Levi.

bbe@Genesis:29:35 @And she was with child again, and gave birth to a son: and she said, This time I will give praise to the Lord: so he was named Judah; after this she had no more children for a time.

bbe@Genesis:30:1 @Now Rachel, because she had no children, was full of envy of her sister; and she said to Jacob, If you do not give me children I will not go on living.

bbe@Genesis:30:3 @Then she said, Here is my servant Bilhah, go in to her, so that she may have a child on my knees, and I may have a family by her.

bbe@Genesis:30:5 @And Bilhah became with child, and gave birth to a son.

bbe@Genesis:30:6 @Then Rachel said, God has been my judge, and has given ear to my voice, and has given me a son; so he was named Dan.

bbe@Genesis:30:7 @And again Bilhah, Rachel's servant, was with child, and gave birth to a second son.

bbe@Genesis:30:10 @And Zilpah, Leah's servant, gave birth to a son.

bbe@Genesis:30:11 @And Leah said, It has gone well for me: and she gave him the name Gad.

bbe@Genesis:30:12 @And Zilpah, Leah's servant, gave birth to a second son.

bbe@Genesis:30:14 @Now at the time of the grain-cutting, Reuben saw some love-fruits in the field, and took them to his mother Leah. And Rachel said to her, Let me have some of your son's love-fruits.

bbe@Genesis:30:15 @But Leah said to her, Is it a small thing that you have taken my husband from me? and now would you take my son's love-fruits? Then Rachel said, You may have him tonight in exchange for your son's love-fruits.

bbe@Genesis:30:16 @In the evening, when Jacob came in from the field, Leah went out to him and said, Tonight you are to come to me, for I have given my son's love-fruits as a price for you. And he went in to her that night.

bbe@Genesis:30:17 @And God gave ear to her and she became with child, and gave Jacob a fifth son.

bbe@Genesis:30:18 @Then Leah said, God has made payment to me for giving my servant-girl to my husband: so she gave her son the name Issachar.

bbe@Genesis:30:19 @And again Leah became with child, and she gave Jacob a sixth son

bbe@Genesis:30:20 @And she said, God has given me a good bride-price; now at last will I have my husband living with me, for I have given him six sons: and she gave him the name Zebulun.

bbe@Genesis:30:23 @And she was with child, and gave birth to a son: and she said, God has taken away my shame.

bbe@Genesis:30:24 @And she gave him the name Joseph, saying, May the Lord give me another son.

bbe@Genesis:30:26 @Give me my wives and my children, for whom I have been your servant, and let me go: for you have knowledge of all the work I have done for you.

bbe@Genesis:30:29 @Then Jacob said, You have seen what I have done for you, and how your cattle have done well under my care.

bbe@Genesis:30:30 @For before I came you had little, and it has been greatly increased; and the Lord has given you a blessing in everything I have done; but when am I to do something for my family?

bbe@Genesis:30:31 @And Laban said, What am I to give you? And Jacob said, Do not give me anything; but I will again take up the care of your flock if you will only do this for me:

bbe@Genesis:30:32 @Let me go through all your flock today, taking out from among them all the sheep which are marked or coloured or black, and all the marked or coloured goats: these will be my payment.

bbe@Genesis:30:33 @And so you will be able to put my honour to the test in time to come; if you see among my flocks any goats which are not marked or coloured, or any sheep which is not black, you may take me for a thief.

bbe@Genesis:30:35 @So that day he took all the he-goats which were banded or coloured, and all the she-goats which were marked or coloured or had white marks, and all the black sheep, and gave them into the care of his sons;

bbe@Genesis:30:41 @And whenever the stronger ones of the flock became with young, Jacob put the sticks in front of them in the drinking-places, so that they might become with young when they saw the sticks.

bbe@Genesis:30:42 @But when the flocks were feeble, he did not put the sticks before them; so that the feebler flocks were Laban's and the stronger were Jacob's.

bbe@Genesis:31:1 @Now it came to the ears of Jacob that Laban's sons were saying, Jacob has taken away all our father's property, and in this way he has got all this wealth.

bbe@Genesis:31:2 @And Jacob saw that Laban's feeling for him was no longer what it had been before.

bbe@Genesis:31:3 @Then the Lord said to Jacob, Go back to the land of your fathers, and to your relations, and I will be with you.

bbe@Genesis:31:4 @And Jacob sent for Rachel and Leah to come to him in the field among his flock.

bbe@Genesis:31:5 @And he said to them, It is clear to me that your father's feeling is no longer what it was to me; but the God of my father has been with me

bbe@Genesis:31:6 @And you have seen how I have done all in my power for your father,

bbe@Genesis:31:8 @If he said, All those in the flock which have marks are to be yours, then all the flock gave birth to marked young; and if he said, All the banded ones are to be yours, then all the flock had banded young.

bbe@Genesis:31:12 @And he said, See how all the he-goats are banded and marked and coloured: for I have seen what Laban has done to you.

bbe@Genesis:31:13 @I am the God of Beth-el, where you put oil on the pillar and took an oath to me: now then, come out of this land and go back to the country of your birth.

bbe@Genesis:31:17 @Then Jacob put his wives and his sons on camels;

bbe@Genesis:31:18 @And sending on before him all his cattle and his property which he had got together in Paddan-aram, he made ready to go to Isaac his father in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:31:19 @Now Laban had gone to see to the cutting of the wool of his sheep; so Rachel secretly took the images of the gods of her father's house.

bbe@Genesis:31:21 @So he went away with all he had, and went across the River in the direction of the hill-country of Gilead

bbe@Genesis:31:22 @And on the third day Laban had news of Jacob's flight.

bbe@Genesis:31:26 @And Laban said to Jacob, Why did you go away secretly, taking my daughters away like prisoners of war?

bbe@Genesis:31:27 @Why did you make a secret of your flight, not giving me word of it, so that I might have sent you away with joy and songs, with melody and music?

bbe@Genesis:31:28 @You did not even let me give a kiss to my sons and my daughters. This was a foolish thing to do.

bbe@Genesis:31:32 @As for your gods, if anyone of us has them, let him be put to death: make search before us all for what is yours, and take it. For Jacob had no knowledge that Rachel had taken them.

bbe@Genesis:31:34 @Now Rachel had taken the images, and had put them in the camels' basket, and was seated on them. And Laban, searching through all the tent, did not come across them.

bbe@Genesis:31:35 @And she said to her father, Let not my lord be angry because I do not get up before you, for I am in the common condition of women. And with all his searching, he did not come across the images.

bbe@Genesis:31:36 @Then Jacob was angry with Laban, and said, What crime or sin have I done that you have come after me with such passion?

bbe@Genesis:31:38 @These twenty years I have been with you; your sheep and your goats have had young without loss, not one of your he-goats have I taken for food.

bbe@Genesis:31:39 @Anything which was wounded by beasts I did not take to you, but myself made up for the loss of it; you made me responsible for whatever was taken by thieves, by day or by night.

bbe@Genesis:31:40 @This was my condition, wasted by heat in the day and by the bitter cold at night; and sleep went from my eyes.

bbe@Genesis:31:45 @Then Jacob took a stone and put it up as a pillar.

bbe@Genesis:31:46 @And Jacob said to his people, Get stones together; and they did so; and they had a meal there by the stones.

bbe@Genesis:31:48 @And Laban said, These stones are a witness between you and me today. For this reason its name was Galeed,

bbe@Genesis:31:49 @And Mizpah, for he said, May the Lord keep watch on us when we are unable to see one another's doings.

bbe@Genesis:31:50 @If you are cruel to my daughters, or if you take other wives in addition to my daughters, then though no man is there to see, God will be the witness between us.

bbe@Genesis:31:51 @And Laban said, See these stones and this pillar which I have put between you and me;

bbe@Genesis:31:52 @They will be witness that I will not go over these stones to you, and you will not go over these stones or this pillar to me, for any evil purpose.

bbe@Genesis:31:54 @And Jacob made an offering on the mountain, and gave orders to his people to take food: so they had a meal and took their rest that night on the mountain.

bbe@Genesis:31:55 @And early in the morning Laban, after kissing and blessing his daughters, went on his way back to his country.

bbe@Genesis:32:1 @And on his way Jacob came face to face with the angels of God.

bbe@Genesis:32:8 @And said, If Esau, meeting one group, makes an attack on them, the others will get away safely.

bbe@Genesis:32:10 @I am less than nothing in comparison with all your mercies and your faith to me your servant; for with only my stick in my hand I went across Jordan, and now I have become two armies.

bbe@Genesis:32:11 @Be my saviour from the hand of Esau, my brother: for my fear is that he will make an attack on me, putting to death mother and child.

bbe@Genesis:32:13 @Then he put up his tent there for the night; and from among his goods he took, as an offering for his brother Esau,

bbe@Genesis:32:15 @Thirty camels with their young ones, forty cows, ten oxen, twenty asses, and ten young asses.

bbe@Genesis:32:16 @These he gave to his servants, every herd by itself, and he said to his servants, Go on before me, and let there be a space between one herd and another.

bbe@Genesis:32:19 @And he gave the same orders to the second and the third and to all those who were with the herds, saying, This is what you are to say to Esau when you see him;

bbe@Genesis:32:20 @And you are to say further, Jacob, your servant, is coming after us. For he said to himself, I will take away his wrath by the offering which I have sent on, and then I will come before him: it may be that I will have grace in his eyes.

bbe@Genesis:32:21 @So the servants with the offerings went on in front, and he himself took his rest that night in the tents with his people.

bbe@Genesis:32:28 @And he said, Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel: for in your fight with God and with men you have overcome.

bbe@Genesis:32:32 @For this reason the children of Israel, even today, never take that muscle in the hollow of the leg as food, because the hollow of Jacob's leg was touched.

bbe@Genesis:33:1 @Then Jacob, lifting up his eyes, saw Esau coming with his four hundred men. So he made a division of the children between Leah and Rachel and the two women-servants.

bbe@Genesis:33:2 @He put the servants and their children in front, Leah and her children after them, and Rachel and Joseph at the back.

bbe@Genesis:33:3 @And he himself, going before them, went down on his face to the earth seven times till he came near his brother.

bbe@Genesis:33:6 @Then the servants and their children came near, and went down on their faces.

bbe@Genesis:33:8 @And he said, What were all those herds which I saw on the way? And Jacob said, They were an offering so that I might have grace in my lord's eyes.

bbe@Genesis:33:10 @And Jacob said, Not so; but if I have grace in your eyes, take them as a sign of my love, for I have seen your face as one may see the face of God, and you have been pleased with me.

bbe@Genesis:33:11 @Take my offering then, with my blessing; for God has been very good to me and I have enough: so at his strong request, he took it.

bbe@Genesis:33:12 @And he said, Let us go on our journey together, and I will go in front.

bbe@Genesis:33:13 @But Jacob said, My lord may see that the children are only small, and there are young ones in my flocks and herds: one day's over-driving will be the destruction of all the flock.

bbe@Genesis:33:14 @Do you, my lord, go on before your servant; I will come on slowly, at the rate at which the cattle and the children are able to go, till I come to my lord at Seir.

bbe@Genesis:33:16 @So Esau, turning back that day, went on his way to Seir.

bbe@Genesis:33:17 @And Jacob went on to Succoth, where he made a house for himself and put up tents for his cattle: for this reason the place was named Succoth.

bbe@Genesis:33:19 @And for a hundred bits of money he got from the children of Hamor, the builder of Shechem, the field in which he had put up his tents.

bbe@Genesis:34:2 @And when Shechem, the son of Hamor the Hivite who was the chief of that land, saw her, he took her by force and had connection with her.

bbe@Genesis:34:5 @Now Jacob had word of what Shechem had done to his daughter; but his sons were in the fields with the cattle, and Jacob said nothing till they came.

bbe@Genesis:34:7 @Now the sons of Jacob came in from the fields when they had news of it, and they were wounded and very angry because of the shame he had done in Israel by having connection with Jacob's daughter; and they said, Such a thing is not to be done.

bbe@Genesis:34:8 @But Hamor said to them, Shechem, my son, is full of desire for your daughter: will you then give her to him for a wife?

bbe@Genesis:34:10 @Go on living with us, and the country will be open to you; do trade and get property there.

bbe@Genesis:34:12 @However great you make the bride-price and payment, I will give it; only let me have the girl for my wife.

bbe@Genesis:34:13 @But the sons of Jacob gave a false answer to Shechem and Hamor his father, because of what had been done to Dinah their sister.

bbe@Genesis:34:14 @And they said, It is not possible for us to give our sister to one who is without circumcision, for that would be a cause of shame to us:

bbe@Genesis:34:15 @But on this condition only will we come to an agreement with you: if every male among you becomes like us and undergoes circumcision;

bbe@Genesis:34:16 @Then we will give our daughters to you and take your daughters to us and go on living with you as one people.

bbe@Genesis:34:17 @But if you will not undergo circumcision as we say, then we will take our daughter and go.

bbe@Genesis:34:18 @And their words were pleasing to Hamor and his son Shechem.

bbe@Genesis:34:20 @Then Hamor and Shechem, his son, went to the meeting-place of their town, and said to the men of the town,

bbe@Genesis:34:21 @It is the desire of these men to be at peace with us; let them then go on living in this country and doing trade here, for the country is wide open before them; let us take their daughters as wives and let us give them our daughters.

bbe@Genesis:34:22 @But these men will make an agreement with us to go on living with us and to become one people, only on the condition that every male among us undergoes circumcision as they have done.

bbe@Genesis:34:23 @Then will not their cattle and their goods and all their beasts be ours? so let us come to an agreement with them so that they may go on living with us.

bbe@Genesis:34:24 @Then all the men of the town gave ear to the words of Hamor and Shechem his son; and every male in the town underwent circumcision.

bbe@Genesis:34:25 @But on the third day after, before the wounds were well, two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, took their swords and came into the town by surprise and put all the males to death.

bbe@Genesis:34:26 @And Hamor and his son they put to death with the sword, and they took Dinah from Shechem's house and went away.

bbe@Genesis:34:27 @And the sons of Jacob came on them when they were wounded and made waste the town because of what had been done to their sister;

bbe@Genesis:34:29 @And all their wealth and all their little ones and their wives; everything in their houses they took and made them waste.

bbe@Genesis:34:30 @And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, You have made trouble for me and given me a bad name among the people of this country, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites: and because we are small in number they will come together against me and make war on me; and it will be the end of me and all my people.

bbe@Genesis:35:2 @Then Jacob said to all his people, Put away the strange gods which are among you, and make yourselves clean, and put on a change of clothing:

bbe@Genesis:35:5 @So they went on their journey: and the fear of God was on the towns round about, so that they made no attack on the sons of Jacob.

bbe@Genesis:35:7 @And there he made an altar, naming the place El-beth-el: because it was there he had the vision of God when he was in flight from his brother.

bbe@Genesis:35:8 @And Deborah, the servant who had taken care of Rebekah from her birth, came to her end, and was put to rest near Beth-el, under the holy tree: and they gave it the name of Allon-bacuth.

bbe@Genesis:35:9 @Now when Jacob was on his way from Paddan-aram, God came to him again and, blessing him, said,

bbe@Genesis:35:10 @Jacob is your name, but it will be so no longer; from now your name will be Israel; so he was named Israel.

bbe@Genesis:35:11 @And God said to him, I am God, the Ruler of all: be fertile, and have increase; a nation, truly a group of nations, will come from you, and kings will be your offspring;

bbe@Genesis:35:14 @And Jacob put up a pillar in the place where he had been talking with God, and put a drink offering on it, and oil.

bbe@Genesis:35:16 @So they went on from Beth-el; and while they were still some distance from Ephrath, the pains of birth came on Rachel and she had a hard time.

bbe@Genesis:35:17 @And when her pain was very great, the woman who was helping her said, Have no fear; for now you will have another son.

bbe@Genesis:35:18 @And in the hour when her life went from her (for death came to her), she gave the child the name Ben-oni: but his father gave him the name of Benjamin.

bbe@Genesis:35:19 @So Rachel came to her end and was put to rest on the road to Ephrath (which is Beth-lehem).

bbe@Genesis:35:20 @And Jacob put up a pillar on her resting-place; which is named, The Pillar of the resting-place of Rachel, to this day.

bbe@Genesis:35:21 @And Israel went journeying on and put up his tents on the other side of the tower of the flock.

bbe@Genesis:35:22 @Now while they were living in that country, Reuben had connection with Bilhah, his father's servant-woman: and Israel had news of it.

bbe@Genesis:35:23 @Now Jacob had twelve sons: the sons of Leah: Reuben, Jacob's first son, and Simeon and Levi and Judah and Issachar and Zebulun;

bbe@Genesis:35:24 @The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin;

bbe@Genesis:35:25 @The sons of Bilhah, Rachel's servant: Dan and Naphtali;

bbe@Genesis:35:26 @The sons of Zilpah, Leah's servant: Gad and Asher; these are the sons whom Jacob had in Paddan-aram.

bbe@Genesis:35:27 @And Jacob came to his father Isaac at Mamre, at Kiriath-arba, that is, Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac had been living.

bbe@Genesis:35:29 @Then Isaac came to his end and was put to rest with his father's people, an old man after a long life: and Jacob and Esau, his sons, put him in his last resting-place.

bbe@Genesis:36:1 @Now these are the generations of Esau, that is to say, Edom.

bbe@Genesis:36:2 @Esau's wives were women of Canaan: Adah, the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite,

bbe@Genesis:36:4 @Adah had a son Eliphaz; and Basemath was the mother of Reuel;

bbe@Genesis:36:5 @Oholibamah was the mother of Jeush, Jalam, and Korah; these are the sons of Esau, whose birth took place in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:36:6 @Esau took his wives and his sons and his daughters, and all the people of his house, and his beasts and his cattle and all his goods which he had got together in the land of Canaan, and went into the land of Seir, away from his brother Jacob.

bbe@Genesis:36:9 @And these are the generations of Esau, the father of the Edomites in the hill-country of Seir:

bbe@Genesis:36:10 @These are the names of Esau's sons: Eliphaz, the son of Esau's wife Adah, and Reuel, the son of Esau's wife Basemath.

bbe@Genesis:36:11 @The sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz.

bbe@Genesis:36:12 @And Eliphaz, the son of Esau, had connection with a woman named Timna, who gave birth to Amalek: all these were the children of Esau's wife Adah.

bbe@Genesis:36:13 @And these are the sons of Reuel: Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah: they were the children of Esau's wife Basemath.

bbe@Genesis:36:14 @And these are the sons of Esau's wife Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon: she was the mother of Jeush, Jalam, and Korah.

bbe@Genesis:36:15 @These were the chiefs among the sons of Esau: the sons of Eliphaz, Esau's first son: Teman, Omar, Zepho, Kenaz,

bbe@Genesis:36:17 @And these are the sons of Esau's son Reuel: Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, Mizzah: these were the chiefs of Reuel in the land of Edom, the children of Esau's wife Basemath.

bbe@Genesis:36:18 @And these are the sons of Esau's wife Oholibamah: Jeush, Jalam, and Korah: these were the chiefs who came from Esau's wife Oholibamah, daughter of Anah.

bbe@Genesis:36:19 @These were the sons of Esau (that is, Edom), and these were their chiefs.

bbe@Genesis:36:20 @These are the sons of Seir the Horite who were living in that country; Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah,

bbe@Genesis:36:21 @Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan: these are the chiefs of the Horites, offspring of Seir in the land of Edom.

bbe@Genesis:36:23 @And these are the children of Shobal: Alvan, Manahath, Ebal, Shepho, and Onam.

bbe@Genesis:36:24 @And these are the children of Zibeon: Aiah and Anah; that same Anah who made the discovery of the water-springs in the waste land, when he was looking after the asses of his father Zibeon.

bbe@Genesis:36:25 @And these are the children of Anah: Dishon and Oholibamah his daughter.

bbe@Genesis:36:26 @These are the children of Dishon: Hemdan, Eshban, Ithran, and Keran.

bbe@Genesis:36:29 @These were the Horite chiefs: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah,

bbe@Genesis:36:30 @Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. Such were the Horite chiefs in their order in the land of Seir.

bbe@Genesis:36:32 @Bela, son of Beor, was king in Edom, and the name of his chief town was Dinhabah.

bbe@Genesis:36:33 @At his death, Jobab, son of Zerah of Bozrah, became king in his place.

bbe@Genesis:36:35 @And at the death of Husham, Hadad, son of Bedad, who overcame the Midianites in the field of Moab, became king; his chief town was named Avith.

bbe@Genesis:36:38 @And at the death of Shaul, Baal-hanan, son of Achbor, became king.

bbe@Genesis:36:41 @Oholibamah, Elah, Pinon,

bbe@Genesis:37:2 @These are the generations of Jacob: Joseph, a boy seventeen years old, was looking after the flock, together with his brothers, the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father's wives; and Joseph gave their father a bad account of them.

bbe@Genesis:37:3 @Now the love which Israel had for Joseph was greater than his love for all his other children, because he got him when he was an old man: and he had a long coat made for him.

bbe@Genesis:37:7 @We were in the field, getting the grain stems together, and my grain kept upright, and yours came round and went down on the earth before mine.

bbe@Genesis:37:9 @Then he had another dream, and gave his brothers an account of it, saying, I have had another dream: the sun and the moon and eleven stars gave honour to me.

bbe@Genesis:37:10 @And he gave word of it to his father and his brothers; but his father protesting said, What sort of a dream is this? am I and your mother and your brothers to go down on our faces to the earth before you?

bbe@Genesis:37:14 @And he said to him, Go now, and see if your brothers are well and how the flock is; then come back and give me word. So he sent him out of the valley of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.

bbe@Genesis:37:17 @And the man said, They have gone away from here, for they said in my hearing, Let us go to Dothan. So Joseph went after them and came up with them at Dothan.

bbe@Genesis:37:18 @But they saw him when he was a long way off, and before he came near them they made a secret design against him to put him to death;

bbe@Genesis:37:19 @Saying to one another, See, here comes this dreamer.

bbe@Genesis:37:20 @Let us now put him to death and put his body into one of these holes, and we will say, An evil beast has put him to death: then we will see what becomes of his dreams.

bbe@Genesis:37:22 @Do not put him to a violent death, but let him be placed in one of the holes; this he said to keep him safe from their hands, with the purpose of taking him back to his father again.

bbe@Genesis:37:23 @So when Joseph came to his brothers, they took off his long coat which he had on;

bbe@Genesis:37:25 @Then seating themselves, they took their meal: and looking up, they saw a travelling band of Ishmaelites, coming from Gilead on their way to Egypt, with spices and perfumes on their camels.

bbe@Genesis:37:27 @Let us give him to these Ishmaelites for a price, and let us not put violent hands on him, for he is our brother, our flesh. And his brothers gave ear to him.

bbe@Genesis:37:30 @He went back to his brothers, and said, The child is gone; what am I to do?

bbe@Genesis:37:31 @Then they took Joseph's coat, and put on it some of the blood from a young goat which they had put to death,

bbe@Genesis:37:32 @And they took the coat to their father, and said, We came across this; is it your son's coat or not?

bbe@Genesis:37:33 @And he saw that it was, and said, It is my son's coat; an evil beast has put him to death; without doubt Joseph has come to a cruel end.

bbe@Genesis:37:34 @Then Jacob, giving signs of grief, put on haircloth, and went on weeping for his son day after day.

bbe@Genesis:37:35 @And all his sons and all his daughters came to give him comfort, but he would not be comforted, saying with weeping, I will go down to the underworld to my son. So great was his father's sorrow for him.

bbe@Genesis:37:36 @And in Egypt the men of Midian gave him for a price to Potiphar, a captain of high position in Pharaoh's house.

bbe@Genesis:38:3 @And she gave birth to a son, and he gave him the name Er.

bbe@Genesis:38:4 @And again she gave birth to a son, and he gave him the name Onan.

bbe@Genesis:38:5 @Then she had another son, to whom she gave the name Shelah; she was at Chezib when the birth took place.

bbe@Genesis:38:6 @And Judah took a wife for his first son Er, and her name was Tamar.

bbe@Genesis:38:7 @Now Er, Judah's first son, did evil in the eyes of the Lord, so that he put him to death.

bbe@Genesis:38:8 @Then Judah said to Onan, Go in to your brother's wife and do what it is right for a husband's brother to do; make her your wife and get offspring for your brother.

bbe@Genesis:38:9 @But Onan, seeing that the offspring would not be his, went in to his brother's wife, but let his seed go on to the earth, so that he might not get offspring for his brother.

bbe@Genesis:38:11 @Then Judah said to Tamar, his daughter-in-law, Go back to your father's house and keep yourself as a widow till my son Shelah becomes a man: for he had in his mind the thought that death might come to him as it had come to his brothers. So Tamar went back to her father's house.

bbe@Genesis:38:14 @She took off her widow's clothing, and covering herself with her veil, she took her seat near Enaim on the road to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was now a man, but she had not been made his wife.

bbe@Genesis:38:19 @Then she got up and went away and took off her veil and put on her widow's clothing.

bbe@Genesis:38:21 @And he put questions to the men of the place, saying, Where is the loose woman who was in Enaim by the wayside? And they said, There was no such woman there.

bbe@Genesis:38:24 @Now about three months after this, word came to Judah that Tamar, his daughter-in-law, had been acting like a loose woman and was with child. And Judah said, Take her out and let her be burned.

bbe@Genesis:38:26 @Then Judah said openly that they were his, and said, She is more upright than I am, for I did not give her to Shelah my son. And he had no more connection with her.

bbe@Genesis:38:28 @And while she was in the act of giving birth, one of them put out his hand; and the woman who was with her put a red thread round his hand, saying, This one came out first.

bbe@Genesis:39:1 @Now Joseph was taken down to Egypt; and Potiphar the Egyptian, a captain of high position in Pharaoh's house, got him for a price from the Ishmaelites who had taken him there.

bbe@Genesis:39:4 @And having a high opinion of Joseph as his servant, he made him the overseer of his house and gave him control over all he had.

bbe@Genesis:39:5 @And from the time when he made him overseer and gave him control of all his property, the blessing of the Lord was with the Egyptian, because of Joseph; the blessing of the Lord was on all he had, in the house and in the field.

bbe@Genesis:39:6 @And he gave Joseph control of all his property, keeping no account of anything, but only the food which was put before him. Now Joseph was very beautiful in form and face.

bbe@Genesis:39:7 @And after a time, his master's wife, looking on Joseph with desire, said to him, Be my lover.

bbe@Genesis:39:8 @But he would not, and said to her, You see that my master keeps no account of what I do in his house, and has put all his property in my control;

bbe@Genesis:39:9 @So that no one has more authority in this house than I have; he has kept nothing back from me but you, because you are his wife; how then may I do this great wrong, sinning against God?

bbe@Genesis:39:10 @And day after day she went on requesting Joseph to come to her and be her lover, but he would not give ear to her.

bbe@Genesis:39:11 @Now one day he went into the house to do his work; and not one of the men of the house was inside.

bbe@Genesis:39:19 @And hearing his wife's account of what his servant had done, he became very angry.

bbe@Genesis:39:20 @And Joseph's master took him and put him in prison, in the place where the king's prisoners were kept in chains, and he was there in the prison-house.

bbe@Genesis:39:21 @But the Lord was with Joseph, and was good to him, and made the keeper of the prison his friend.

bbe@Genesis:39:22 @And the keeper of the prison put all the prisoners under Joseph's control, and he was responsible for whatever was done there.

bbe@Genesis:39:23 @And the keeper of the prison gave no attention to anything which was under his care, because the Lord was with him; and the Lord made everything he did go well.

bbe@Genesis:40:3 @And he put them in prison under the care of the captain of the army, in the same prison where Joseph himself was shut up.

bbe@Genesis:40:4 @And the captain put them in Joseph's care, and he did what was needed for them; and they were kept in prison for some time.

bbe@Genesis:40:5 @And these two had a dream on the same night; the chief wine-servant and the chief bread-maker of the king of Egypt, who were in prison, the two of them had dreams with a special sense.

bbe@Genesis:40:7 @And he said to the servants of Pharaoh who were in prison with him, Why are you looking so sad?

bbe@Genesis:40:8 @Then they said to him, We have had a dream, and no one is able to give us the sense. And Joseph said, Does not the sense of dreams come from God? what was your dream?

bbe@Genesis:40:10 @And on the vine were three branches; and it seemed as if it put out buds and flowers, and from them came grapes ready for cutting.

bbe@Genesis:40:13 @After three days Pharaoh will give you honour, and put you back into your place, and you will give him his cup as you did before, when you were his wine-servant.

bbe@Genesis:40:14 @But keep me in mind when things go well for you, and be good to me and say a good word for me to Pharaoh and get me out of this prison:

bbe@Genesis:40:15 @For truly I was taken by force from the land of the Hebrews; and I have done nothing for which I might be put in prison.

bbe@Genesis:40:16 @Now when the chief bread-maker saw that the first dream had a good sense, he said to Joseph, I had a dream; and in my dream there were three baskets of white bread on my head;

bbe@Genesis:40:17 @And in the top basket were all sorts of cooked meats for Pharaoh; and the birds were taking them out of the baskets on my head.

bbe@Genesis:40:19 @After three days Pharaoh will take you out of prison, hanging you on a tree, so that your flesh will be food for birds.

bbe@Genesis:40:20 @Now the third day was Pharaoh's birthday, and he gave a feast for all his servants; and he gave honour to the chief wine-servant and the chief bread-maker among the others.

bbe@Genesis:41:1 @Now after two years had gone by, Pharaoh had a dream; and in his dream he was by the side of the Nile;

bbe@Genesis:41:5 @But he went to sleep again and had a second dream, in which he saw seven heads of grain, full and good, all on one stem.

bbe@Genesis:41:8 @And in the morning his spirit was troubled; and he sent for all the wise men of Egypt and all the holy men, and put his dream before them, but no one was able to give him the sense of it.

bbe@Genesis:41:10 @Pharaoh had been angry with his servants, and had put me in prison in the house of the captain of the army, together with the chief bread-maker;

bbe@Genesis:41:11 @And we had a dream on the same night, the two of us, and the dreams had a special sense.

bbe@Genesis:41:14 @Then Pharaoh sent for Joseph, and they took him quickly out of prison; and when his hair had been cut and his dress changed, he came before Pharaoh.

bbe@Genesis:41:15 @And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I have had a dream, and no one is able to give me the sense of it; now it has come to my ears that you are able to give the sense of a dream when it is put before you.

bbe@Genesis:41:22 @And again in a dream I saw seven heads of grain, full and good, coming up on one stem:

bbe@Genesis:41:24 @And the seven thin heads made a meal of the seven good heads; and I put this dream before the wise men, but not one of them was able to give me the sense of it.

bbe@Genesis:41:35 @And let them get together all the food in those good years and make a store of grain under Pharaoh's control for the use of the towns, and let them keep it.

bbe@Genesis:41:36 @And let that food be kept in store for the land till the seven bad years which are to come in Egypt; so that the land may not come to destruction through need of food.

bbe@Genesis:41:40 @You, then, are to be over my house, and all my people will be ruled by your word: only as king will I be greater than you.

bbe@Genesis:41:42 @Then Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand and put it on Joseph's hand, and he had him clothed with the best linen, and put a chain of gold round his neck;

bbe@Genesis:41:43 @And he made him take his seat in the second of his carriages; and they went before him crying, Make way! So he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:41:45 @And Pharaoh gave Joseph the name of Zaphnath-paaneah; and he gave him Asenath, the daughter of Poti-phera, the priest of On, to be his wife. So Joseph went through all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:41:50 @And before the time of need, Joseph had two sons, to whom Asenath, the daughter of Poti-phera, priest of On, gave birth.

bbe@Genesis:41:52 @And to the second he gave the name Ephraim, for he said, God has given me fruit in the land of my sorrow.

bbe@Genesis:41:56 @And everywhere on the earth they were short of food; then Joseph, opening all his store-houses, gave the people of Egypt grain for money; so great was the need of food in the land of Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:42:1 @Now Jacob, hearing that there was grain in Egypt, said to his sons, Why are you looking at one another?

bbe@Genesis:42:5 @And the sons of Israel came with all the others to get grain: for they were very short of food in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:42:6 @Now Joseph was ruler over all the land, and it was he who gave out the grain to all the people of the land; and Joseph's brothers came before him and went down on their faces to the earth.

bbe@Genesis:42:10 @And they said to him, Not so, my lord: your servants have come with money to get food.

bbe@Genesis:42:11 @We are all one man's sons, we are true men; we have not come with any secret purpose.

bbe@Genesis:42:13 @Then they said, We your servants are twelve brothers, sons of one man in the land of Canaan; the youngest of us is now with our father, and one is dead.

bbe@Genesis:42:16 @Send one of your number to get your brother, and the rest of you will be kept in prison, so that your words may be tested to see if you are true; if not, by the life of Pharaoh, your purpose is certainly secret.

bbe@Genesis:42:17 @So he put them in prison for three days.

bbe@Genesis:42:18 @And on the third day Joseph said to them, Do this, if you would keep your lives: for I am a god-fearing man:

bbe@Genesis:42:19 @If you are true men, let one of you be kept in prison, while you go and take grain for the needs of your families;

bbe@Genesis:42:21 @And they said to one another, Truly, we did wrong to our brother, for we saw his grief of mind, and we did not give ear to his prayers; that is why this trouble has come on us.

bbe@Genesis:42:22 @And Reuben said to them, Did I not say to you, Do the child no wrong? but you gave no attention; so now, punishment has come on us for his blood.

bbe@Genesis:42:23 @They were not conscious that the sense of their words was clear to Joseph, for he had been talking to them through one who had knowledge of their language.

bbe@Genesis:42:24 @And turning away from them, he was overcome with weeping; then he went on talking to them again and took Simeon and put chains on him before their eyes.

bbe@Genesis:42:25 @Then Joseph gave orders for their bags to be made full of grain, and for every man's money to be put back into his bag, and for food to be given them for the journey: which was done.

bbe@Genesis:42:26 @Then they put the bags of grain on their asses and went away.

bbe@Genesis:42:27 @Now at their night's resting-place one of them, opening his bag to give his ass some food, saw his money in the mouth of the bag.

bbe@Genesis:42:28 @And he said to his brothers, My money has been given back: it is in my bag; then their hearts became full of fear, and turning to one another they said, What is this which God has done to us?

bbe@Genesis:42:30 @The man who is the ruler of the country was rough with us and put us in prison, saying that we had come with a secret evil purpose.

bbe@Genesis:42:32 @We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is dead, and the youngest is now with our father in the land of Canaan.

bbe@Genesis:42:33 @And the ruler of the land said, In this way I may be certain that you are true men; let one of you be kept here with me, while you go and take grain for the needs of your families;

bbe@Genesis:42:35 @And when they took the grain out of their bags, it was seen that every man's parcel of money was in his bag; and when they and their father saw the money, they were full of fear.

bbe@Genesis:42:36 @And Jacob their father said to them, You have taken my children from me: Joseph is gone and Simeon is gone, and now you would take Benjamin away; all these things have come on me.

bbe@Genesis:42:37 @And Reuben said, Put my two sons to death if I do not come back to you with him; let him be in my care and I will give him safely back to you.

bbe@Genesis:42:38 @And he said, I will not let my son go down with you; for his brother is dead and he is all I have: if evil overtakes him on the journey, then through you will my grey head go down to the underworld in sorrow.

bbe@Genesis:43:7 @And they said, The man put a number of questions to us about ourselves and our family, saying, Is your father still living? have you another brother? And we had to give him answers; how were we to have any idea that he would say, Come back with your brother?

bbe@Genesis:43:8 @Then Judah said to Israel, his father, Send the boy with me, and let us be up and going, so that we and you and our little ones may not come to destruction.

bbe@Genesis:43:9 @Put him into my care and make me responsible for him: if I do not give him safely back to you, let mine be the sin for ever.

bbe@Genesis:43:11 @Then their father Israel said to them, If it has to be so, then do this: take of the best fruits of the land in your vessels to give the man, perfumes and honey and spices and nuts:

bbe@Genesis:43:12 @And take twice as much money with you; that is to say, take back the money which was put in your bags, for it may have been an error;

bbe@Genesis:43:15 @So they took what their father said for the man, and twice as much money in their hands, and Benjamin, and went on their journey to Egypt, and came before Joseph.

bbe@Genesis:43:18 @Now the men were full of fear because they had been taken into Joseph's house and they said, It is because of the money which was put back in our bags the first time; he is looking for something against us, so that he may come down on us and take us and our asses for his use.

bbe@Genesis:43:20 @And said, O my lord, we only came down the first time to get food;

bbe@Genesis:43:21 @And when we came to our night's resting-place, on opening our bags we saw that every man's money was in the mouth of his bag, all our money in full weight: and we have it with us to give it back;

bbe@Genesis:43:22 @As well as more money, with which to get food: we have no idea who put our money in our bags.

bbe@Genesis:43:23 @Then the servant said, Peace be with you: have no fear: your God, even the God of your father, has put wealth in your bags for you: I had your money. Then he let Simeon come out to them.

bbe@Genesis:43:28 @And they said, Your servant, our father, is well, he is still living. And they went down on their faces before him.

bbe@Genesis:43:29 @Then, lifting up his eyes, he saw Benjamin, his brother, his mother's son, and he said, Is this your youngest brother of whom you gave me word? And he said, God be good to you, my son.

bbe@Genesis:43:31 @Then, after washing his face, he came out, and controlling his feelings said, Put food before us.

bbe@Genesis:43:33 @And they were all given their seats before him in order of birth, from the oldest to the youngest: so that they were looking at one another in wonder.

bbe@Genesis:44:1 @Then he gave orders to the servant who was over his house, saying, Put as much food into the men's bags as will go into them, and put every man's money in the mouth of his bag;

bbe@Genesis:44:2 @And put my cup, my silver cup, in the youngest one's bag, with his money. So he did as Joseph said.

bbe@Genesis:44:4 @And when they had gone only a little way out of the town, Joseph said to the servant who was over his house, Go after them; and when you overtake them, say to them, Why have you done evil in reward for good?

bbe@Genesis:44:5 @Is not this the cup from which my lord takes wine and by which he gets knowledge of the future? Truly, you have done evil.

bbe@Genesis:44:8 @See, the money which was in the mouth of our bags we gave back to you when we came again from Canaan: how then might we take silver or gold from your lord's house?

bbe@Genesis:44:9 @If it comes to light that any of your servants has done this, let him be put to death, and we will be your lord's servants.

bbe@Genesis:44:10 @And he said, Let it be as you say: he in whose bag it is seen will become my servant; and you will not be responsible.

bbe@Genesis:44:13 @Then in bitter grief they put the bags on the asses again and went back to the town.

bbe@Genesis:44:14 @So Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house; and he was still there: and they went down on their faces before him.

bbe@Genesis:44:15 @And Joseph said, What is this thing which you have done? had you no thought that such a man as I would have power to see what is secret?

bbe@Genesis:44:20 @And we said to my lord, We have an old father and a young child, whom he had when he was old; his brother is dead and he is the only son of his mother, and is very dear to his father.

bbe@Genesis:44:26 @And we said, Only if our youngest brother goes with us will we go down; for we may not see the man's face again if our youngest brother is not with us.

bbe@Genesis:44:27 @And our father said to us, You have knowledge that my wife gave me two sons;

bbe@Genesis:44:28 @The one went away from me, and I said, Truly he has come to a violent death; and from that time I have not seen him,

bbe@Genesis:44:29 @If now you take this one from me, and some evil comes to him, you will make my grey head go down in sorrow to the underworld.

bbe@Genesis:44:30 @If then I go back to your servant, my father, without the boy, because his life and the boy's life are one,

bbe@Genesis:44:32 @For I made myself responsible for the boy to my father, saying, If I do not give him safely back to you, let mine be the sin for ever.

bbe@Genesis:44:34 @For how may I go back to my father without the boy, and see the evil which will come on my father?

bbe@Genesis:45:1 @Then Joseph, unable to keep back his feelings before those who were with him, gave orders for everyone to be sent away, and no one was present when he made clear to his brothers who he was.

bbe@Genesis:45:7 @God sent me before you to keep you and yours living on earth so that you might become a great nation.

bbe@Genesis:45:9 @Now go quickly to my father, and say to him, Your son Joseph says, God has made me ruler over all the land of Egypt: come down to me straight away:

bbe@Genesis:45:14 @Then, weeping, he took Benjamin in his arms, and Benjamin himself was weeping on Joseph's neck.

bbe@Genesis:45:17 @And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Say to your brothers, Put your goods on your beasts and go back to the land of Canaan;

bbe@Genesis:45:19 @And say to them, This you are to do: take carts from the land of Egypt for your little ones and for your wives, and get your father and come back.

bbe@Genesis:45:22 @To every one of them he gave three changes of clothing; but to Benjamin he gave three hundred bits of silver and five changes of clothing.

bbe@Genesis:45:23 @And to his father he sent ten asses with good things from Egypt on their backs, and ten she-asses with grain and bread and food for his father on the journey.

bbe@Genesis:45:24 @And he sent his brothers on their way, and said to them, See that you have no argument on the road.

bbe@Genesis:45:28 @And Israel said, It is enough: Joseph my son is still living; I will go and see him before my death.

bbe@Genesis:46:1 @And Israel went on his journey with all he had, and came to Beer-sheba, where he made offerings to the God of his father Isaac.

bbe@Genesis:46:2 @And God said to Israel in a night-vision, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here am I.

bbe@Genesis:46:3 @And he said, I am God, the God of your father: go down to Egypt without fear, for I will make a great nation of you there:

bbe@Genesis:46:4 @I will go down with you to Egypt, and I will see that you come back again, and at your death Joseph will put his hands on your eyes.

bbe@Genesis:46:5 @Then Jacob went on from Beer-sheba; and the sons of Jacob took their father and their little ones and their wives in the carts which Pharaoh had sent for them.

bbe@Genesis:46:7 @His sons and his sons' sons, his daughters and his daughters' sons and all his family he took with him into Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:46:8 @And these are the names of the children of Israel who came into Egypt, even Jacob and all his sons: Reuben, Jacob's oldest son;

bbe@Genesis:46:9 @And the sons of Reuben: Hanoch and Pallu and Hezron and Carmi;

bbe@Genesis:46:10 @And the sons of Simeon: Jemuel and Jamin and Ohad and Jachin and Zohar and Shaul, the son of a woman of Canaan;

bbe@Genesis:46:11 @And the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari;

bbe@Genesis:46:12 @And the sons of Judah: Er and Onan and Shelah and Perez and Zerah: but Er and Onan had come to their death in the land of Canaan; and the sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul.

bbe@Genesis:46:13 @And the sons of Issachar: Tola and Puah and Job and Shimron;

bbe@Genesis:46:14 @And the sons of Zebulun: Sered and Elon and Jahleel;

bbe@Genesis:46:16 @And the sons of Gad: Ziphion and Haggi, Shuni and Ezbon, Eri and Arodi and Areli;

bbe@Genesis:46:17 @And the sons of Asher: Jimnah and Ishvah and Ishvi and Beriah, and Sarah, their sister; and the sons of Beriah: Heber and Malchiel.

bbe@Genesis:46:19 @The sons of Jacob's wife Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.

bbe@Genesis:46:20 @And Joseph had Manasseh and Ephraim in the land of Egypt, by Asenath, the daughter of Poti-phera, priest of On.

bbe@Genesis:46:21 @And the sons of Benjamin were Belah and Becher and Ashbel, Gera and Naaman, Ehi and Rosh, Muppim and Huppim and Ard.

bbe@Genesis:46:22 @All these were the children of Rachel whom Jacob had by her, fourteen persons.

bbe@Genesis:46:23 @And the son of Dan was Hushim.

bbe@Genesis:46:24 @And the sons of Naphtali: Jahzeel and Guni and Jezer and Shillem.

bbe@Genesis:46:25 @These were the children of Bilhah, whom Laban gave to his daughter Rachel, seven persons.

bbe@Genesis:46:26 @All the persons who came with Jacob into Egypt, the offspring of his body, were sixty-six, without taking into account the wives of Jacob's sons.

bbe@Genesis:46:27 @And the sons of Joseph whom he had in Egypt were two. Seventy persons of the family of Jacob came into Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:47:5 @And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Let them have the land of Goshen; and if there are any able men among them, put them over my cattle.

bbe@Genesis:47:6 @And Jacob and his sons came to Joseph in Egypt, and when word of it came to the ears of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, he said to Joseph, Your father and brothers have come to you; all the land of Egypt is before you; let your father and your brothers have the best of the land for their resting-place.

bbe@Genesis:47:14 @And all the money in Egypt and in the land of Canaan which had been given for grain, came into the hands of Joseph: and he put it in Pharaoh's house.

bbe@Genesis:47:15 @And when all the money in Egypt and Canaan was gone, the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, Give us bread; would you have us come to destruction before your eyes? for we have no more money.

bbe@Genesis:47:16 @And Joseph said, Give me your cattle; I will give you grain in exchange for your cattle if your money is all gone.

bbe@Genesis:47:18 @And when that year was ended, they came to him in the second year, and said, We may not keep it from our lord's knowledge that all our money is gone, and all the herds of cattle are my lord's; there is nothing more to give my lord but our bodies and our land;

bbe@Genesis:47:19 @Are we to come to destruction before your eyes, we and our land? take us and our land and give us bread; and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh; and give us seed so that we may have life and the land may not become waste.

bbe@Genesis:47:21 @And as for the people, he made servants of them, town by town, from one end of Egypt to the other.

bbe@Genesis:47:22 @Only he did not take the land of the priests, for the priests had their food given them by Pharaoh, and having what Pharaoh gave them, they had no need to give up their land.

bbe@Genesis:47:24 @And when the grain is cut, you are to give a fifth part to Pharaoh, and four parts will be yours for seed and food, and for your families and your little ones.

bbe@Genesis:47:26 @Then Joseph made a law which is in force to this day, that Pharaoh was to have the fifth part; only the land of the priests did not become his.

bbe@Genesis:47:27 @And so Israel was living among the Egyptians in the land of Goshen; and they got property there, and became very great in numbers and in wealth.

bbe@Genesis:47:29 @And the time of his death came near, and he sent for his son Joseph and said to him, If now I am dear to you, put your hand under my leg and take an oath that you will not put me to rest in Egypt;

bbe@Genesis:47:31 @And he said, Take an oath to me; and he took an oath to him: and Israel gave worship on the bed's head.

bbe@Genesis:48:1 @Now after these things, word came to Joseph that his father was ill: and he took with him his sons Manasseh and Ephraim.

bbe@Genesis:48:2 @And when they said to Jacob, Your son Joseph is coming to see you: then Israel, getting all his strength together, had himself lifted up in his bed.

bbe@Genesis:48:3 @And Jacob said to Joseph, God, the Ruler of all, came to me in a vision at Luz in the land of Canaan, and gave me his blessing,

bbe@Genesis:48:4 @And said to me, Truly, I will make you fertile and give you increase and will make of you a great family of nations: and I will give this land to your seed after you to be their heritage for ever.

bbe@Genesis:48:5 @And now your two sons who came to birth in Egypt before I came to you here, are mine; Ephraim and Manasseh will be mine, in the same way as Reuben and Simeon are.

bbe@Genesis:48:7 @And as for me, when I came from Paddan, death overtook Rachel on the way, when we were still some distance from Ephrath; and I put her to rest there on the road to Ephrath, which is Beth-lehem.

bbe@Genesis:48:8 @Then Israel, looking at Joseph's sons, said, Who are these?

bbe@Genesis:48:9 @And Joseph said to his father, They are my sons, whom God has given me in this land. And he said, Let them come near me, and I will give them a blessing.

bbe@Genesis:48:10 @Now because Israel was old, his eyes were no longer clear, and he was not able to see. So he made them come near to him, and he gave them a kiss, folding them in his arms.

bbe@Genesis:48:12 @Then Joseph took them from between his knees, and went down on his face to the earth.

bbe@Genesis:48:14 @And Israel, stretching out his right hand, put it on the head of Ephraim, the younger, and his left hand on the head of Manasseh, crossing his hands on purpose, for Manasseh was the older.

bbe@Genesis:48:16 @The angel who has been my saviour from all evil, send his blessing on these children: and let my name and the name of my fathers, Abraham and Isaac, be given to them; and let them become a great nation in the earth.

bbe@Genesis:48:17 @Now when Joseph saw that his father had put his right hand on the head of Ephraim, it did not seem right to him; and lifting his father's hand he would have put it on the head of Manasseh.

bbe@Genesis:48:18 @And Joseph said to his father, Not so, my father, for this is the older; put your right hand on his head.

bbe@Genesis:48:19 @But his father would not, saying, I am doing it on purpose, my son; he will certainly become a nation and a great one; but his younger brother will be greater than he, and his seed will become a great family of nations.

bbe@Genesis:49:1 @And Jacob sent for his sons, and said, Come together, all of you, so that I may give you news of your fate in future times.

bbe@Genesis:49:2 @Come near, O sons of Jacob, and give ear to the words of Israel your father.

bbe@Genesis:49:3 @Reuben, you are my oldest son, the first-fruit of my strength, first in pride and first in power:

bbe@Genesis:49:4 @But because you were uncontrolled, the first place will not be yours; for you went up to your father's bed, even his bride-bed, and made it unclean.

bbe@Genesis:49:5 @Simeon and Levi are brothers; deceit and force are their secret designs.

bbe@Genesis:49:7 @A curse on their passion for it was bitter; and on their wrath for it was cruel. I will let their heritage in Jacob be broken up, driving them from their places in Israel.

bbe@Genesis:49:8 @To you, Judah, will your brothers give praise: your hand will be on the neck of your haters; your father's sons will go down to the earth before you.

bbe@Genesis:49:9 @Judah is a young lion; like a lion full of meat you have become great, my son; now he takes his rest like a lion stretched out and like an old lion; by whom will his sleep be broken?

bbe@Genesis:49:13 @The resting-place of Zebulun will be by the sea, and he will be a harbour for ships; the edge of his land will be by Zidon.

bbe@Genesis:49:14 @Issachar is a strong ass stretched out among the flocks:

bbe@Genesis:49:15 @And he saw that rest was good and the land was pleasing; so he let them put weights on his back and became a servant.

bbe@Genesis:49:16 @Dan will be the judge of his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.

bbe@Genesis:49:18 @I have been waiting for your salvation, O Lord.

bbe@Genesis:49:19 @Gad, an army will come against him, but he will come down on them in their flight.

bbe@Genesis:49:21 @Naphtali is a roe let loose, giving fair young ones.

bbe@Genesis:49:24 @But their bows were broken by a strong one, and the cords of their arms were cut by the Strength of Jacob, by the name of the Stone of Israel:

bbe@Genesis:49:25 @Even by the God of your father, who will be your help, and by the Ruler of all, who will make you full with blessings from heaven on high, blessings of the deep stretched out under the earth, blessings of the breasts and of the fertile body:

bbe@Genesis:49:26 @Blessings of sons, old and young, to the father: blessings of the oldest mountains and the fruit of the eternal hills: let them come on the head of Joseph, on the crown of him who was separate from his brothers.

bbe@Genesis:49:27 @Benjamin is a wolf, searching for meat: in the morning he takes his food, and in the evening he makes division of what he has taken.

bbe@Genesis:49:28 @These are the twelve tribes of Israel: and these are the words their father said to them, blessing them; to every one he gave his blessing.

bbe@Genesis:49:29 @And he gave orders to them, saying, Put me to rest with my people and with my fathers, in the hollow of the rock in the field of Ephron the Hittite,

bbe@Genesis:49:30 @In the rock in the field of Machpelah, near Mamre in the land of Canaan, which Abraham got from Ephron the Hittite, to be his resting-place.

bbe@Genesis:49:33 @And when Jacob had come to the end of these words to his sons, stretching himself on his bed, he gave up his spirit, and went the way of his people.

bbe@Genesis:50:1 @And Joseph put his head down on his father's face, weeping and kissing him.

bbe@Genesis:50:3 @And the forty days needed for making the body ready went by: and there was weeping for him among the Egyptians for seventy days.

bbe@Genesis:50:8 @And all the family of Joseph, and his brothers and his father's people: only their little ones and their flocks and herds they did not take with them from the land of Goshen.

bbe@Genesis:50:10 @And they came to the grain-floor of Atad on the other side of Jordan, and there they gave the last honours to Jacob, with great and bitter sorrow, weeping for their father for seven days.

bbe@Genesis:50:11 @And when the people of the land, the people of Canaan, at the grain-floor of Atad, saw their grief, they said, Great is the grief of the Egyptians: so the place was named Abel-mizraim, on the other side of Jordan.

bbe@Genesis:50:12 @So his sons did as he had given them orders to do:

bbe@Genesis:50:13 @For they took him into the land of Canaan and put him to rest in the hollow rock in the field of Machpelah, which Abraham got with the field, for a resting-place, from Ephron the Hittite at Mamre.

bbe@Genesis:50:14 @And when his father had been put to rest, Joseph and his brothers and all who had gone with him, went back to Egypt.

bbe@Genesis:50:17 @You are to say to Joseph, Let the wrongdoing of your brothers be overlooked, and the evil they did to you: now, if it is your pleasure, let the sin of the servants of your father's God have forgiveness. And at these words, Joseph was overcome with weeping.

bbe@Genesis:50:20 @As for you, it was in your mind to do me evil, but God has given a happy outcome, the salvation of numbers of people, as you see today.

bbe@Genesis:50:21 @So now, have no fear: for I will take care of you and your little ones. So he gave them comfort with kind words.

bbe@Genesis:50:22 @Now Joseph and all his father's family went on living in Egypt: and the years of Joseph's life were a hundred and ten.

bbe@Genesis:50:23 @And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third generation: and the children of Machir, the son of Manasseh, came to birth on Joseph's knees.

bbe@Genesis:50:25 @Then Joseph made the children of Israel take an oath, saying, God will certainly give effect to his word, and you are to take my bones away from here.

bbe@Exodus:1:1 @Now these are the names of the sons of Israel who came into Egypt; every man and his family came with Jacob.

bbe@Exodus:1:2 @Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah;

bbe@Exodus:1:5 @All the offspring of Jacob were seventy persons: and Joseph had come to Egypt before them.

bbe@Exodus:1:6 @Then Joseph came to his end, and all his brothers, and all that generation.

bbe@Exodus:1:10 @Let us take care for fear that their numbers may become even greater, and if there is a war, they may be joined with those who are against us, and make an attack on us, and go up out of the land.

bbe@Exodus:1:14 @And made their lives bitter with hard work, making building-material and bricks, and doing all sorts of work in the fields under the hardest conditions.

bbe@Exodus:1:15 @And the king of Egypt said to the Hebrew women who gave help at the time of childbirth (the name of the one was Shiphrah and the name of the other Puah),

bbe@Exodus:1:16 @When you are looking after the Hebrew women in childbirth, if it is a son you are to put him to death; but if it is a daughter, she may go on living.

bbe@Exodus:1:17 @But the women had the fear of God, and did not do as the king of Egypt said, but let the male children go on living.

bbe@Exodus:1:18 @And the king of Egypt sent for the women, and said to them, Why have you done this, and let the male children go on living?

bbe@Exodus:1:19 @And they said to Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women, for they are strong, and the birth takes place before we come to them.

bbe@Exodus:1:20 @And the blessing of God was on these women: and the people were increased in number and became very strong.

bbe@Exodus:1:22 @And Pharaoh gave orders to all his people, saying, Every son who comes to birth is to be put into the river, but every daughter may go on living.

bbe@Exodus:2:2 @And she became with child and gave birth to a Son; and when she saw that he was a beautiful child, she kept him secretly for three months.

bbe@Exodus:2:3 @And when she was no longer able to keep him secret, she made him a basket out of the stems of water-plants, pasting sticky earth over it to keep the water out; and placing the baby in it she put it among the plants by the edge of the Nile.

bbe@Exodus:2:5 @Now Pharaoh's daughter came down to the Nile to take a bath, while her women were walking by the riverside; and she saw the basket among the river-plants, and sent her servant-girl to get it.

bbe@Exodus:2:6 @And opening it, she saw the child, and he was crying. And she had pity on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children.

bbe@Exodus:2:7 @Then his sister said to Pharaoh's daughter, May I go and get you one of the Hebrew women to give him the breast?

bbe@Exodus:2:10 @And when the child was older, she took him to Pharaoh's daughter and he became her son, and she gave him the name Moses, Because, she said, I took him out of the water.

bbe@Exodus:2:11 @Now when Moses had become a man, one day he went out to his people and saw how hard their work was; and he saw an Egyptian giving blows to a Hebrew, one of his people.

bbe@Exodus:2:12 @And turning this way and that, and seeing no one, he put the Egyptian to death, covering his body with sand.

bbe@Exodus:2:13 @And he went out the day after and saw two of the Hebrews fighting: and he said to him who was in the wrong, Why are you fighting your brother?

bbe@Exodus:2:21 @And Moses was happy to go on living with the man; and he gave his daughter Zipporah to Moses.

bbe@Exodus:2:22 @And she gave birth to a son, to whom he gave the name Gershom: for he said, I have been living in a strange land.

bbe@Exodus:2:23 @Now after a long time the king of Egypt came to his end: and the children of Israel were crying in their grief under the weight of their work, and their cry for help came to the ears of God.

bbe@Exodus:3:2 @And the angel of the Lord was seen by him in a flame of fire coming out of a thorn-tree: and he saw that the tree was on fire, but it was not burned up.

bbe@Exodus:3:4 @And when the Lord saw him turning to one side to see, God said his name out of the tree, crying, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I.

bbe@Exodus:3:6 @And he said, I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses kept his face covered for fear of looking on God.

bbe@Exodus:3:8 @And I have come down to take them out of the hands of the Egyptians, guiding them out of that land into a good land and wide, into a land flowing with milk and honey; into the place of the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Amorite and the Perizzite and the Hivite and the Jebusite.

bbe@Exodus:3:12 @And he said, Truly I will be with you; and this will be the sign to you that I have sent you: when you have taken the children of Israel out of Egypt, you will give worship to God on this mountain.

bbe@Exodus:3:15 @And God went on to say to Moses, Say to the children of Israel, The Lord, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has sent me to you: this is my name for ever, and this is my sign to all generations.

bbe@Exodus:3:16 @Go and get together the chiefs of the children of Israel, and say to them, The Lord, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has been seen by me, and has said, Truly I have taken up your cause, because of what is done to you in Egypt;

bbe@Exodus:3:17 @And I have said, I will take you up out of the sorrows of Egypt into the land of the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Amorite and the Perizzite and the Hivite and the Jebusite, into a land flowing with milk and honey.

bbe@Exodus:3:20 @But I will put out my hand and overcome Egypt with all the wonders which I will do among them: and after that he will let you go.

bbe@Exodus:3:22 @For every woman will get from her neighbour and from the woman living in her house, ornaments of silver and gold, and clothing; and you will put them on your sons and your daughters; you will take the best of their goods from the Egyptians.

bbe@Exodus:4:3 @And he said, Put it down on the earth. And he put it down on the earth and it became a snake; and Moses went running from it.

bbe@Exodus:4:8 @And if they do not have faith in you or give ear to the voice of the first sign, they will have faith in the second sign.

bbe@Exodus:4:9 @And if they have no faith even in these two signs and will not give ear to your voice, then you are to take the water of the Nile and put it on the dry land: and the water you take out of the river will become blood on the dry land.

bbe@Exodus:4:10 @And Moses said to the Lord, O Lord, I am not a man of words; I have never been so, and am not now, even after what you have said to your servant: for talking is hard for me, and I am slow of tongue

bbe@Exodus:4:13 @And he said, O Lord, send, if you will, by the hand of anyone whom it seems good to you to send.

bbe@Exodus:4:14 @And the Lord was angry with Moses, and said, Is there not Aaron, your brother, the Levite? To my knowledge he is good at talking. And now he is coming out to you: and when he sees you he will be glad in his heart.

bbe@Exodus:4:18 @And Moses went back to Jethro, his father-in-law, and said to him, Let me go back now to my relations in Egypt and see if they are still living. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace.

bbe@Exodus:4:20 @And Moses took his wife and his sons and put them on an ass and went back to the land of Egypt: and he took the rod of God in his hand.

bbe@Exodus:4:21 @And the Lord said to Moses, When you go back to Egypt, see that you do before Pharaoh all the wonders which I have given you power to do: but I will make his heart hard and he will not let the people go.

bbe@Exodus:4:22 @And you are to say to Pharaoh, The Lord says, Israel is the first of my sons:

bbe@Exodus:4:23 @And I said to you, Let my son go, so that he may give me worship; and you did not let him go: so now I will put the first of your sons to death.

bbe@Exodus:4:24 @Now on the journey, at the night's resting-place, the Lord came in his way and would have put him to death.

bbe@Exodus:4:25 @Then Zipporah took a sharp stone, and cutting off the skin of her son's private parts, and touching his feet with it, she said, Truly you are a husband of blood to me.

bbe@Exodus:4:26 @So he let him go. Then she said, You are a husband of blood because of the circumcision.

bbe@Exodus:4:27 @And the Lord said to Aaron, Go into the waste land and you will see Moses. So he went and came across Moses at the mountain of God, and gave him a kiss.

bbe@Exodus:4:28 @And Moses gave Aaron an account of all the words of the Lord which he had sent him to say, and of all the signs which he had given him orders to do.

bbe@Exodus:4:29 @Then Moses and Aaron went and got together all the chiefs of the children of Israel:

bbe@Exodus:4:30 @And Aaron said to them all the words the Lord had said to Moses, and did the signs before all the people.

bbe@Exodus:5:1 @And after that, Moses and Aaron came to Pharaoh, and said, The Lord, the God of Israel, says, Let my people go so that they may keep a feast to me in the waste land.

bbe@Exodus:5:3 @And they said, The God of the Hebrews has come to us: let us then go three days' journey into the waste land to make an offering to the Lord our God, so that he may not send death on us by disease or the sword.

bbe@Exodus:5:4 @And the king of Egypt said to them, Why do you, Moses and Aaron, take the people away from their work? get back to your work.

bbe@Exodus:5:6 @The same day Pharaoh gave orders to the overseers and those who were responsible for the work, saying,

bbe@Exodus:5:9 @Give the men harder work, and see that they do it; let them not give attention to false words.

bbe@Exodus:5:10 @And the overseers of the people and their responsible men went out and said to the people, Pharaoh says, I will give you no more dry stems.

bbe@Exodus:5:12 @So the people were sent in all directions through the land of Egypt to get dry grass for stems

bbe@Exodus:5:13 @And the overseers went on driving them and saying, Do your full day's work as before when there were dry stems for you.

bbe@Exodus:5:14 @And the responsible men of the children of Israel, whom Pharaoh's overseers had put over them, were given blows, and they said to them, Why have you not done your regular work, in making bricks as before?

bbe@Exodus:5:15 @Then the responsible men of the children of Israel came to Pharaoh, protesting and saying, Why are you acting in this way to your servants?

bbe@Exodus:5:16 @They give us no dry stems and they say to us, Make bricks: and they give your servants blows; but it is your people who are in the wrong.

bbe@Exodus:5:19 @Then the responsible men of the children of Israel saw that they were purposing evil when they said, The number of bricks which you have to make every day will be no less than before.

bbe@Exodus:5:20 @And they came face to face with Moses and Aaron, who were in their way when they came out from Pharaoh:

bbe@Exodus:5:21 @And they said to them, May the Lord take note of you and be your judge; for you have given Pharaoh and his servants a bad opinion of us, putting a sword in their hands for our destruction.

bbe@Exodus:5:22 @And Moses went back to the Lord and said, Lord, why have you done evil to this people? why have you sent me?

bbe@Exodus:5:23 @For from the time when I came to Pharaoh to put your words before him, he has done evil to this people, and you have given them no help.

bbe@Exodus:6:1 @And the Lord said to Moses, Now you will see what I am about to do to Pharaoh; for by a strong hand he will be forced to let them go, driving them out of his land because of my outstretched arm.

bbe@Exodus:6:9 @And Moses said these words to the children of Israel, but they gave no attention to him, because of the grief of their spirit and the cruel weight of their work.

bbe@Exodus:6:13 @And the word of the Lord came to Moses and Aaron, with orders for the children of Israel and for Pharaoh, king of Egypt, to take the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:6:14 @These are the heads of their fathers' families: the sons of Reuben the oldest son of Israel: Hanoch and Pallu, Hezron and Carmi: these are the families of Reuben

bbe@Exodus:6:15 @And the sons of Simeon: Jemuel and Jamin and Ohad and Jachin and Zohar and Shaul, the son of a woman of Canaan: these are the families of Simeon.

bbe@Exodus:6:16 @And these are the names of the sons of Levi in the order of their generations: Gershon and Kohath and Merari: and the years of Levi's life were a hundred and thirty-seven.

bbe@Exodus:6:17 @The sons of Gershon: Libni and Shimei, in the order of their families.

bbe@Exodus:6:18 @And the sons of Kohath: Amram and Izhar and Hebron and Uzziel: and the years of Kohath's life were a hundred and thirty-three.

bbe@Exodus:6:19 @And the sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi: these are the families of the Levites, in the order of their generations.

bbe@Exodus:6:20 @And Amram took Jochebed, his father's sister, as wife; and she gave birth to Aaron and Moses: and the years of Amram's life were a hundred and thirty-seven.

bbe@Exodus:6:21 @And the sons of Izhar: Korah and Nepheg and Zichri.

bbe@Exodus:6:22 @And the sons of Uzziel: Mishael and Elzaphan and Sithri.

bbe@Exodus:6:23 @And Aaron took as his wife Elisheba, the daughter of Amminadab, the sister of Nahshon; and she gave birth to Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.

bbe@Exodus:6:24 @And the sons of Korah: Assir and Elkanah and Abiasaph: these are the families of the Korahites.

bbe@Exodus:6:25 @And Eleazar, Aaron's son, took as his wife one of the daughters of Putiel; and she gave birth to Phinehas. These are the heads of the families of the Levites, in the order of their families.

bbe@Exodus:6:26 @These are the same Aaron and Moses to whom the Lord said, Take the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt in their armies.

bbe@Exodus:6:27 @These are the men who gave orders to Pharaoh to let the children of Israel go out of Egypt: these are the same Moses and Aaron.

bbe@Exodus:6:28 @And on the day when the word of the Lord came to Moses in the land of Egypt,

bbe@Exodus:7:1 @And the Lord said to Moses, See I have made you a god to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother will be your prophet.

bbe@Exodus:7:2 @Say whatever I give you orders to say: and Aaron your brother will give word to Pharaoh to let the children of Israel go out of his land.

bbe@Exodus:7:3 @And I will make Pharaoh's heart hard, and my signs and wonders will be increased in the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:7:4 @But Pharaoh will not give ear to you, and I will put my hand on Egypt, and take my armies, my people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt, after great punishments.

bbe@Exodus:7:5 @And the Egyptians will see that I am the Lord, when my hand is stretched out over Egypt, and I take the children of Israel out from among them.

bbe@Exodus:7:6 @And Moses and Aaron did so: as the Lord gave them orders, so they did.

bbe@Exodus:7:7 @And Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three years old, when they gave the Lord's word to Pharaoh.

bbe@Exodus:7:8 @And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron,

bbe@Exodus:7:9 @If Pharaoh says to you, Let me see a wonder: then say to Aaron, Take your rod and put it down on the earth before Pharaoh so that it may become a snake.

bbe@Exodus:7:10 @Then Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh and they did as the Lord had said: and Aaron put his rod down on the earth before Pharaoh and his servants, and it became a snake.

bbe@Exodus:7:11 @Then Pharaoh sent for the wise men and the wonder-workers, and they, the wonder-workers of Egypt, did the same with their secret arts.

bbe@Exodus:7:12 @For every one of them put down his rod on the earth, and they became snakes: but Aaron's rod made a meal of their rods.

bbe@Exodus:7:14 @And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, Pharaoh's heart is unchanged; he will not let the people go.

bbe@Exodus:7:18 @And the fish in the Nile will come to destruction, and the river will send up a bad smell, and the Egyptians will not be able, for disgust, to make use of the water of the Nile for drinking.

bbe@Exodus:7:19 @And the Lord said, Say to Aaron, Let the rod in your hand be stretched out over the waters of Egypt, and over the rivers and the streams and the pools, and over every stretch of water, so that they may be turned to blood; and there will be blood through all the land of Egypt, in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.

bbe@Exodus:7:20 @And Moses and Aaron did as the Lord had said; and when his rod had been lifted up and stretched out over the waters of the Nile before the eyes of Pharaoh and his servants, all the water in the Nile was turned to blood;

bbe@Exodus:7:21 @And the fish in the Nile came to destruction, and a bad smell went up from the river, and the Egyptians were not able to make use of the water of the Nile for drinking; and there was blood through all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:7:22 @And the wonder-workers of Egypt did the same with their secret arts: but Pharaoh's heart was made hard, and he would not give ear to them, as the Lord had said.

bbe@Exodus:7:25 @And seven days went past, after the Lord had put his hand on the Nile.

bbe@Exodus:8:3 @The Nile will be full of frogs, and they will come up into your house and into your bedrooms and on your bed, and into the houses of your servants and your people, and into your ovens and into your bread-basins.

bbe@Exodus:8:5 @And the Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Let the rod in your hand be stretched out over the streams and the waterways and the pools, causing frogs to come up on the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:8:6 @And when Aaron put out his hand over the waters of Egypt, the frogs came up and all the land of Egypt was covered with them.

bbe@Exodus:8:7 @And the wonder-workers did the same with their secret arts, making frogs come up over the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:8:8 @Then Pharaoh sent for Moses and Aaron and said, Make prayer to the Lord that he will take away these frogs from me and my people; and I will let the people go and make their offering to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:8:9 @And Moses said, I will let you have the honour of saying when I am to make prayer for you and your servants and your people, that the frogs may be sent away from you and your houses, and be only in the Nile.

bbe@Exodus:8:11 @And the frogs will be gone from you and from your houses and from your servants and from your people and will be only in the Nile.

bbe@Exodus:8:12 @Then Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh; and Moses made prayer to the Lord about the frogs which he had sent on Pharaoh.

bbe@Exodus:8:16 @And the Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Let your rod be stretched out over the dust of the earth so that it may become insects through all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:8:17 @And they did so; and Aaron, stretching out the rod in his hand, gave a touch to the dust of the earth, and insects came on man and on beast; all the dust of the earth was changed into insects through all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:8:18 @And the wonder-workers with their secret arts, attempting to make insects, were unable to do so: and there were insects on man and on beast

bbe@Exodus:8:19 @Then the wonder-workers said to Pharaoh, This is the finger of God: but Pharaoh's heart was hard, and he did not give ear to them, as the Lord had said.

bbe@Exodus:8:21 @For if you do not let my people go, see, I will send clouds of flies on you and on your servants and on your people and into their houses; and the houses of the Egyptians and the land where they are will be full of flies.

bbe@Exodus:8:22 @And at that time I will make a division between your land and the land of Goshen where my people are, and no flies will be there; so that you may see that I am the Lord over all the earth.

bbe@Exodus:8:23 @And I will put a division between my people and your people; tomorrow this sign will be seen.

bbe@Exodus:8:25 @And Pharaoh sent for Moses and Aaron and said, Go and make your offering to your God here in the land.

bbe@Exodus:8:26 @And Moses said, It is not right to do so; for we make our offerings of that to which the Egyptians give worship; and if we do so before their eyes, certainly we will be stoned.

bbe@Exodus:8:29 @And Moses said, When I go out from you I will make prayer to the Lord that the cloud of flies may go away from Pharaoh and from his people and from his servants tomorrow: only let Pharaoh no longer by deceit keep back the people from making their offering to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:8:31 @And the Lord did as Moses said, and took away the cloud of flies from Pharaoh and from his servants and from his people; not one was to be seen.

bbe@Exodus:9:3 @Then the hand of the Lord will put on your cattle in the field, on the horses and the asses and the camels, on the herds and the flocks, a very evil disease.

bbe@Exodus:9:4 @And the Lord will make a division between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt; there will be no loss of any of the cattle of Israel.

bbe@Exodus:9:6 @And on the day after, the Lord did as he had said, causing the death of all the cattle of Egypt, but there was no loss of any of the cattle of Israel.

bbe@Exodus:9:8 @And the Lord said to Moses and to Aaron, Take in your hand a little dust from the fire and let Moses send it in a shower up to heaven before the eyes of Pharaoh.

bbe@Exodus:9:9 @And it will become small dust over all the land of Egypt, and will be a skin-disease bursting out in wounds on man and beast through all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:9:10 @So they took some dust from the fire, and placing themselves before Pharaoh, Moses sent it out in a shower up to heaven; and it became a skin-disease bursting out on man and on beast.

bbe@Exodus:9:11 @And the wonder-workers were not able to take their places before Moses, because of the disease; for the disease was on the wonder-workers and on all the Egyptians.

bbe@Exodus:9:14 @For this time I will send all my punishments on yourself and on your servants and on your people; so that you may see that there is no other like me in all the earth.

bbe@Exodus:9:15 @For if I had put the full weight of my hand on you and your people, you would have been cut off from the earth:

bbe@Exodus:9:16 @But, for this very reason, I have kept you from destruction, to make clear to you my power, and so that my name may be honoured through all the earth.

bbe@Exodus:9:19 @Then send quickly and get in your cattle and all you have from the fields; for if any man or beast in the field has not been put under cover, the ice-storm will come down on them with destruction.

bbe@Exodus:9:20 @Then everyone among the servants of Pharaoh who had the fear of the Lord, made his servants and his cattle come quickly into the house:

bbe@Exodus:9:21 @And he who gave no attention to the word of the Lord, kept his servants and his cattle in the field.

bbe@Exodus:9:22 @And the Lord said to Moses, Now let your hand be stretched out to heaven so that there may be an ice-storm on all the land of Egypt, on man and on beast and on every plant of the field through all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:9:23 @And Moses put out his rod to heaven: and the Lord sent thunder, and an ice-storm, and fire running down on the earth; the Lord sent an ice-storm on the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:9:24 @So there was an ice-storm with fire running through it, coming down with great force, such as never was in all the land of Egypt from the time when it became a nation.

bbe@Exodus:9:25 @And through all the land of Egypt the ice-storm came down on everything which was in the fields, on man and on beast; and every green plant was crushed and every tree of the field broken.

bbe@Exodus:9:26 @Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, there was no ice-storm.

bbe@Exodus:9:27 @Then Pharaoh sent for Moses and Aaron, and said to them, I have done evil this time: the Lord is upright, and I and my people are sinners.

bbe@Exodus:9:28 @Make prayer to the Lord; for there has been enough of these thunderings of God and this ice-storm; and I will let you go and will keep you no longer.

bbe@Exodus:9:29 @And Moses said, When I am gone outside the town, my hands will be stretched out to the Lord; the thunders and the ice-storm will come to an end, so that you may see that the earth is the Lord's.

bbe@Exodus:9:34 @But when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the ice-storm and the thunders were ended, he went on sinning, and made his heart hard, he and his servants.

bbe@Exodus:10:1 @And the Lord said to Moses, Go in to Pharaoh: for I have made his heart and the hearts of his servants hard, so that I may let my signs be seen among them:

bbe@Exodus:10:2 @And so that you may be able to give to your son and to your son's son the story of my wonders in Egypt, and the signs which I have done among them; so that you may see that I am the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:10:3 @Then Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and said to him, This is what the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says: How long will you be lifted up in your pride before me? let my people go so that they may give me worship.

bbe@Exodus:10:5 @And the face of the earth will be covered with them, so that you will not be able to see the earth: and they will be the destruction of everything which up to now has not been damaged, everything which was not crushed by the ice-storm, and every tree still living in your fields.

bbe@Exodus:10:6 @And your houses will be full of them, and the houses of your servants and of all the Egyptians; it will be worse than anything your fathers have seen or their fathers, from the day when they were living on the earth till this day. And so he went out from Pharaoh.

bbe@Exodus:10:7 @And Pharaoh's servants said to him, How long is this man to be the cause of evil to us? let the men go so that they may give worship to the Lord their God: are you not awake to Egypt's danger?

bbe@Exodus:10:8 @Then Moses and Aaron came in again before Pharaoh: and he said to them, Go and give worship to the Lord your God: but which of you are going?

bbe@Exodus:10:9 @And Moses said, We will go with our young and our old, with our sons and our daughters, with our flocks and our herds; for we are to keep a feast to the Lord

bbe@Exodus:10:10 @And he said to them, May the Lord be with you, if I will let you and your little ones go! take care, for your purpose clearly is evil.

bbe@Exodus:10:12 @And the Lord said to Moses, Let your hand be stretched out over the land of Egypt so that the locusts may come up on the land for the destruction of every green plant in the land, even everything untouched by the ice-storm.

bbe@Exodus:10:14 @And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, resting on every part of the land, in very great numbers; such an army of locusts had never been seen before, and never will be again.

bbe@Exodus:10:15 @For all the face of the earth was covered with them, so that the land was black; and every green plant and all the fruit of the trees which was untouched by the ice-storm they took for food: not one green thing, no plant or tree, was to be seen in all the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:10:16 @Then Pharaoh quickly sent for Moses and Aaron, and said, I have done evil against the Lord your God and against you.

bbe@Exodus:10:17 @Let me now have forgiveness for my sin this time only, and make prayer to the Lord your God that he will take away from me this death only.

bbe@Exodus:10:19 @And the Lord sent a very strong west wind, which took up the locusts, driving them into the Red Sea; not one locust was to be seen in any part of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:10:23 @They were not able to see one another, and no one got up from his place for three days: but where the children of Israel were living it was light.

bbe@Exodus:10:24 @Then Pharaoh sent for Moses, and said, Go and give worship to the Lord; only let your flocks and your herds be kept here: your little ones may go with you.

bbe@Exodus:10:26 @So our cattle will have to go with us, not one may be kept back; for they are needed for the worship of the Lord our God; we have no knowledge what offering we have to give till we come to the place.

bbe@Exodus:11:1 @And the Lord said to Moses, I will send one more punishment on Pharaoh and on Egypt; after that he will let you go; and when he does let you go, he will not keep one of you back, but will send you out by force.

bbe@Exodus:11:3 @And the Lord gave the people grace in the eyes of the Egyptians. For the man Moses was highly honoured in the land of Egypt, by Pharaoh's servants and the people.

bbe@Exodus:11:5 @And death will come to every mother's first male child in all the land of Egypt, from the child of Pharaoh on his seat of power, to the child of the servant-girl crushing the grain; and the first births of all the cattle.

bbe@Exodus:11:7 @But against the children of Israel, man or beast, not so much as the tongue of a dog will be moved: so that you may see how the Lord makes a division between Israel and the Egyptians.

bbe@Exodus:11:8 @And all these your servants will come to me, going down on their faces before me and saying, Go out, and all your people with you: and after that I will go out. And he went away from Pharaoh burning with wrath.

bbe@Exodus:11:9 @And the Lord said to Moses, Pharaoh will not give ear to you, so that my wonders may be increased in the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:11:10 @All these wonders Moses and Aaron did before Pharaoh: but the Lord made Pharaoh's heart hard, and he did not let the children of Israel go out of his land.

bbe@Exodus:12:1 @And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt,

bbe@Exodus:12:2 @Let this month be to you the first of months, the first month of the year.

bbe@Exodus:12:3 @Say to all the children of Israel when they are come together, In the tenth day of this month every man is to take a lamb, by the number of their fathers' families, a lamb for every family:

bbe@Exodus:12:4 @And if the lamb is more than enough for the family, let that family and its nearest neighbour have a lamb between them, taking into account the number of persons and how much food is needed for every man.

bbe@Exodus:12:5 @Let your lamb be without a mark, a male in its first year: you may take it from among the sheep or the goats:

bbe@Exodus:12:6 @Keep it till the fourteenth day of the same month, when everyone who is of the children of Israel is to put it to death between sundown and dark.

bbe@Exodus:12:7 @Then take some of the blood and put it on the two sides of the door and over the door of the house where the meal is to be taken.

bbe@Exodus:12:11 @And take your meal dressed as if for a journey, with your shoes on your feet and your sticks in your hands: take it quickly: it is the Lord's Passover.

bbe@Exodus:12:12 @For on that night I will go through the land of Egypt, sending death on every first male child, of man and of beast, and judging all the gods of Egypt: I am the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:12:13 @And the blood will be a sign on the houses where you are: when I see the blood I will go over you, and no evil will come on you for your destruction, when my hand is on the land of Egypt

bbe@Exodus:12:14 @And this day is to be kept in your memories: you are to keep it as a feast to the Lord through all your generations, as an order for ever.

bbe@Exodus:12:16 @And on the first day there is to be a holy meeting and on the seventh day a holy meeting; no sort of work may be done on those days but only to make ready what is necessary for everyone's food.

bbe@Exodus:12:17 @So keep the feast of unleavened bread; for on this very day I have taken your armies out of the land of Egypt: this day, then, is to be kept through all your generations by an order for ever.

bbe@Exodus:12:18 @In the first month, from the evening of the fourteenth day, let your food be unleavened bread till the evening of the twenty-first day of the month.

bbe@Exodus:12:22 @And take some hyssop and put it in the blood in the basin, touching the two sides and the top of the doorway with the blood from the basin; and let not one of you go out of his house till the morning.

bbe@Exodus:12:23 @For the Lord will go through the land, sending death on the Egyptians; and when he sees the blood on the two sides and the top of the door, the Lord will go over your door and will not let death come in for your destruction.

bbe@Exodus:12:24 @And you are to keep this as an order to you and to your sons for ever.

bbe@Exodus:12:26 @And when your children say to you, What is the reason of this act of worship?

bbe@Exodus:12:27 @Then you will say, This is the offering of the Lord's Passover; for he went over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he sent death on the Egyptians, and kept our families safe. And the people gave worship with bent heads.

bbe@Exodus:12:28 @And the children of Israel went and did so; as the Lord had given orders to Moses and Aaron, so they did.

bbe@Exodus:12:29 @And in the middle of the night the Lord sent death on every first male child in the land of Egypt, from the child of Pharaoh on his seat of power to the child of the prisoner in the prison; and the first births of all the cattle.

bbe@Exodus:12:30 @Then Pharaoh got up in the night, he and all his servants and all the Egyptians; and a great cry went up from Egypt; for there was not a house where someone was not dead.

bbe@Exodus:12:31 @And he sent for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, Get up and go out from among my people, you and the children of Israel; go and give worship to the Lord as you have said.

bbe@Exodus:12:32 @And take your flocks and your herds as you have said, and be gone; and give me your blessing.

bbe@Exodus:12:33 @And the Egyptians were forcing the people on, to get them out of the land quickly; for they said, We are all dead men.

bbe@Exodus:12:34 @And the people took their bread-paste before it was leavened, putting their basins in their clothing on their backs.

bbe@Exodus:12:35 @And the children of Israel had done as Moses had said; and they got from the Egyptians ornaments of silver and of gold, and clothing:

bbe@Exodus:12:37 @And the children of Israel made the journey from Rameses to Succoth; there were about six hundred thousand men on foot, as well as children.

bbe@Exodus:12:42 @It is a watch-night before the Lord who took them out of the land of Egypt: this same night is a watch-night to the Lord for all the children of Israel, through all their generations.

bbe@Exodus:12:43 @And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, This is the law of the Passover: no man who is not an Israelite is to take of it:

bbe@Exodus:12:44 @But every man's servant, whom he has got for money, may take of it, when he has had circumcision.

bbe@Exodus:12:45 @A man from a strange country living among you, and a servant working for payment, may not take part in it.

bbe@Exodus:12:46 @It is to be taken in one house; not a bit of the flesh is to be taken out of the house, and no bone of it may be broken.

bbe@Exodus:12:48 @And if a man from another country is living with you, and has a desire to keep the Passover to the Lord, let all the males of his family undergo circumcision, and then let him come near and keep it; for he will then be as one of your people; but no one without circumcision may keep it.

bbe@Exodus:12:50 @So the children of Israel did as the Lord gave orders to Moses and Aaron.

bbe@Exodus:12:51 @And on that very day the Lord took the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies.

bbe@Exodus:13:2 @Let the first male child of every mother among the children of Israel be kept holy for me, even the first male birth among man or beast; for it is mine.

bbe@Exodus:13:3 @And Moses said to the people, Let this day, on which you came out of Egypt, out of your prison-house, be kept for ever in memory; for by the strength of his hand the Lord has taken you out from this place; let no leavened bread be used.

bbe@Exodus:13:4 @On this day, in the month Abib, you are going out.

bbe@Exodus:13:5 @And it will be that, when the Lord takes you into the land of the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Amorite and the Hivite and the Jebusite, the land which he made an oath to your fathers that he would give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, you will do this act of worship in this month.

bbe@Exodus:13:6 @For seven days let your food be unleavened cakes; and on the seventh day there is to be a feast to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:13:7 @Unleavened cakes are to be your food through all the seven days; let no leavened bread be seen among you, or any leaven, in any part of your land.

bbe@Exodus:13:8 @And you will say to your son in that day, It is because of what the Lord did for me when I came out of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:13:9 @And this will be for a sign to you on your hand and for a mark on your brow, so that the law of the Lord may be in your mouth: for with a strong hand the Lord took you out of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:13:12 @You are to put on one side for the Lord every mother's first male child, the first-fruit of her body, and the first young one of every beast; every male is holy to the Lord.

bbe@Exodus:13:13 @And for the young of an ass you may give a lamb in payment, or if you will not make payment for it, its neck is to be broken; but for all the first sons among your children, let payment be made.

bbe@Exodus:13:14 @And when your son says to you in time to come, What is the reason for this? say to him, By the strength of his hand the Lord took us out of Egypt, out of the prison-house:

bbe@Exodus:13:15 @And when Pharaoh made his heart hard and would not let us go, the Lord sent death on all the first sons in Egypt, of man and of beast: and so every first male who comes to birth is offered to the Lord; but for all the first of my sons I give a price

bbe@Exodus:13:16 @And this will be for a sign on your hand and for a mark on your brow: for by the strength of his hand the Lord took us out of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:13:19 @And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him, for Joseph had made the children of Israel take an oath, saying, God will certainly keep you in mind; and you are to take my bones away with you.

bbe@Exodus:13:20 @Then they went on their journey from Succoth, and put up their tents in Etham at the edge of the waste land.

bbe@Exodus:13:21 @And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, guiding them on their way; and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light: so that they were able to go on day and night:

bbe@Exodus:14:2 @Give orders to the children of Israel to go back and put up their tents before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, in front of Baal-zephon, opposite to which you are to put up your tents by the sea.

bbe@Exodus:14:3 @And Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are wandering without direction, they are shut in by the waste land.

bbe@Exodus:14:4 @And I will make Pharaoh's heart hard, and he will come after them and I will be honoured over Pharaoh and all his army, so that the Egyptians may see that I am the Lord. And they did so.

bbe@Exodus:14:8 @And the Lord made the heart of Pharaoh hard, and he went after the children of Israel: for the children of Israel had gone out without fear.

bbe@Exodus:14:9 @But the Egyptians went after them, all the horses and carriages of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them in their tents by the sea, by Pihahiroth, before Baal-zephon.

bbe@Exodus:14:13 @But Moses said, Keep where you are and have no fear; now you will see the salvation of the Lord which he will give you today; for the Egyptians whom you see today you will never see again.

bbe@Exodus:14:14 @The Lord will make war for you, you have only to keep quiet.

bbe@Exodus:14:16 @And let your rod be lifted up and your hand stretched out over the sea, and it will be parted in two; and the children of Israel will go through on dry land.

bbe@Exodus:14:17 @And I will make the heart of the Egyptians hard, and they will go in after them: and I will be honoured over Pharaoh and over his army, his war-carriages, and his horsemen

bbe@Exodus:14:18 @And the Egyptians will see that I am the Lord, when I get honour over Pharaoh and his war-carriages and his horsemen.

bbe@Exodus:14:20 @And it came between the army of Egypt and the army of Israel; and there was a dark cloud between them, and they went on through the night; but the one army came no nearer to the other all the night.

bbe@Exodus:14:21 @And when Moses' hand was stretched out over the sea, the Lord with a strong east wind made the sea go back all night, and the waters were parted in two and the sea became dry land.

bbe@Exodus:14:22 @And the children of Israel went through the sea on dry land: and the waters were a wall on their right side and on their left.

bbe@Exodus:14:24 @And in the morning watch, the Lord, looking out on the armies of the Egyptians from the pillar of fire and cloud, sent trouble on the army of the Egyptians;

bbe@Exodus:14:26 @And the Lord said to Moses, Let your hand be stretched out over the sea, and the waters will come back again on the Egyptians, and on their war-carriages and on their horsemen.

bbe@Exodus:14:27 @And when Moses' hand was stretched out over the sea, at dawn the sea came flowing back, meeting the Egyptians in their flight, and the Lord sent destruction on the Egyptians in the middle of the sea.

bbe@Exodus:14:28 @And the waters came back, covering the war-carriages and the horsemen and all the army of Pharaoh which went after them into the middle of the sea; not one of them was to be seen.

bbe@Exodus:14:29 @But the children of Israel went through the sea walking on dry land, and the waters were a wall on their right side and on their left.

bbe@Exodus:14:30 @So that day the Lord gave Israel salvation from the hands of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the sea's edge.

bbe@Exodus:14:31 @And Israel saw the great work which the Lord had done against the Egyptians, and the fear of the Lord came on the people and they had faith in the Lord and in his servant Moses.

bbe@Exodus:15:1 @Then Moses and the children of Israel made this song to the Lord, and said, I will make a song to the Lord, for he is lifted up in glory: the horse and the horseman he has sent down into the sea.

bbe@Exodus:15:2 @The Lord is my strength and my strong helper, he has become my salvation: he is my God and I will give him praise; my father's God and I will give him glory.

bbe@Exodus:15:4 @Pharaoh's war-carriages and his army he has sent down into the sea: the best of his captains have gone down into the Red Sea.

bbe@Exodus:15:5 @They were covered by the deep waters: like a stone they went down under the waves.

bbe@Exodus:15:9 @Egypt said, I will go after them, I will overtake, I will make division of their goods: my desire will have its way with them; my sword will be uncovered, my hand will send destruction on them.

bbe@Exodus:15:11 @Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods? who is like you, in holy glory, to be praised with fear, doing wonders?

bbe@Exodus:15:15 @The chiefs of Edom were troubled in heart; the strong men of Moab were in the grip of fear: all the people of Canaan became like water.

bbe@Exodus:15:16 @Fear and grief came on them; by the strength of your arm they were turned to stone; till your people went over, O Lord, till the people went over whom you have made yours.

bbe@Exodus:15:19 @For the horses of Pharaoh, with his war-carriages and his horsemen, went into the sea, and the Lord sent the waters of the sea back over them; but the children of Israel went through the sea on dry land

bbe@Exodus:15:20 @And Miriam, the woman prophet, the sister of Aaron, took an instrument of music in her hand; and all the women went after her with music and dances.

bbe@Exodus:15:21 @And Miriam, answering, said, Make a song to the Lord, for he is lifted up in glory; the horse and the horseman he has sent into the sea.

bbe@Exodus:15:26 @And he said, If with all your heart you will give attention to the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right in his eyes, giving ear to his orders and keeping his laws, I will not put on you any of the diseases which I put on the Egyptians: for I am the Lord your life-giver.

bbe@Exodus:16:1 @And they went on their way from Elim, and all the children of Israel came into the waste land of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after they went out of the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:16:2 @And all the children of Israel were crying out against Moses and Aaron in the waste land:

bbe@Exodus:16:5 @And on the sixth day they are to make ready what they get in, and it will be twice as much as they get on the other days.

bbe@Exodus:16:6 @And Moses and Aaron said to all the children of Israel, This evening it will be clear to you that it is the Lord who has taken you out of the land of Egypt:

bbe@Exodus:16:9 @And Moses said to Aaron, Say to all the people of Israel, Come near before the Lord for he has given ear to your outcry.

bbe@Exodus:16:10 @And while Aaron was talking to the children of Israel, their eyes were turned in the direction of the waste land, and they saw the glory of the Lord shining in the cloud.

bbe@Exodus:16:14 @And when the dew was gone, on the face of the earth was a small round thing, like small drops of ice on the earth.

bbe@Exodus:16:15 @And when the children of Israel saw it, they said to one another, What is it? for they had no idea what it was. And Moses said to them, It is the bread which the Lord has given you for your food.

bbe@Exodus:16:16 @This is what the Lord has said, Let every man take up as much as he has need of; at the rate of one omer for every person, let every man take as much as is needed for his family.

bbe@Exodus:16:20 @But they gave no attention to Moses, and some of them kept it till the morning and there were worms in it and it had an evil smell: and Moses was angry with them.

bbe@Exodus:16:21 @And they took it up morning by morning, every man as he had need: and when the sun was high it was gone

bbe@Exodus:16:22 @And on the sixth day they took up twice as much of the bread, two omers for every person: and all the rulers of the people gave Moses word of it.

bbe@Exodus:16:23 @And he said, This is what the Lord has said, Tomorrow is a day of rest, a holy Sabbath to the Lord: what has to be cooked may be cooked; and what is over, put on one side to be kept till the morning.

bbe@Exodus:16:26 @For six days you will get it, but on the seventh day, the Sabbath, there will not be any.

bbe@Exodus:16:27 @But still on the seventh day some of the people went out to get it, and there was not any.

bbe@Exodus:16:28 @And the Lord said to Moses, How long will you go against my orders and my laws?

bbe@Exodus:16:29 @See, because the Lord has given you the Sabbath, he gives you on the sixth day bread enough for two days; let every man keep where he is; let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.

bbe@Exodus:16:30 @So the people took their rest on the seventh day.

bbe@Exodus:16:31 @And this bread was named manna by Israel: it was white, like a grain seed, and its taste was like cakes made with honey.

bbe@Exodus:16:32 @And Moses said, This is the order which the Lord has given: Let one omer of it be kept for future generations, so that they may see the bread which I gave you for your food in the waste land, when I took you out from the land of Egypt.

bbe@Exodus:16:33 @And Moses said to Aaron, Take a pot and put one omer of manna in it, and put it away before the Lord, to be kept for future generations.

bbe@Exodus:16:34 @So Aaron put it away in front of the holy chest to be kept, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

bbe@Exodus:17:1 @And the children of Israel went on from the waste land of Sin, by stages as the Lord gave them orders, and put up their tents in Rephidim: and there was no drinking-water for the people.

bbe@Exodus:17:3 @And the people were in great need of water; and they made an outcry against Moses, and said, Why have you taken us out of Egypt to send death on us and our children and our cattle through need of water?

bbe@Exodus:17:4 @And Moses, crying out to the Lord, said, What am I to do to this people? they are almost ready to put me to death by stoning.

bbe@Exodus:17:5 @And the Lord said to Moses, Go on before the people, and take some of the chiefs of Israel with you, and take in your hand the rod which was stretched out over the Nile, and go.

bbe@Exodus:17:6 @See, I will take my place before you on the rock in Horeb; and when you give the rock a blow, water will come out of it, and the people will have drink. And Moses did so before the eyes of the chiefs of Israel.

bbe@Exodus:17:8 @Then Amalek came and made war on Israel in Rephidim.

bbe@Exodus:17:9 @And Moses said to Joshua, Get together a band of men for us and go out, make war on Amalek: tomorrow I will take my place on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand.

bbe@Exodus:17:10 @So Joshua did as Moses said to him, and went to war with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.

bbe@Exodus:17:11 @Now while Moses' hand was lifted up, Israel was the stronger: but when he let his hand go down, Amalek became the stronger.

bbe@Exodus:17:12 @But Moses' hands became tired; so they put a stone under him and he took his seat on it, Aaron and Hur supporting his hands, one on one side and one on the other; so his hands were kept up without falling till the sun went down.
