rsv@Genesis:15:2 @ But Abram said, "O Lord GOD, what wilt thou give me, for I continue childless, and the heir of my house is Elie'zer of Damascus?"
rsv@Genesis:15:3 @ And Abram said, "Behold, thou hast given me no offspring; and a slave born in my house will be my heir."
rsv@Genesis:15:4 @ And behold, the word of the LORD ca me to him, "This man shall not be your heir; your own son shall be your heir."
rsv@Genesis:15:9 @ He said to him, "Bring me a heifer three years old, a she-goat three years old, a ram three years old, a turtledove, and a young pigeon."
rsv@Genesis:15:11 @ And when birds of prey ca me down upon the carcasses, Abram drove them away.

rsv@Genesis:15:16 @ And they shall co me back here in the fourth generation; for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet complete."
rsv@Genesis:16:1 @ Now Sar'ai, Abram's wife, bore him no children. She had an Egyptian maid whose na me was Hagar;
rsv@Genesis:16:2 @ and Sar'ai said to Abram, "Behold now, the LORD has prevented me from bearing children; go in to my maid; it may be that I shall obtain children by her." And Abram hearkened to the voice of Sar'ai.
rsv@Genesis:16:5 @ And Sar'ai said to Abram, "May the wrong done to me be on you! I gave my maid to your embrace, and when she saw that she had conceived, she looked on me with contempt. May the LORD judge between you and me!"
rsv@Genesis:16:8 @ And he said, "Hagar, maid of Sar'ai, where have you co me from and where are you going?" She said, "I am fleeing from my mistress Sar'ai."
rsv@Genesis:16:11 @ And the angel of the LORD said to her, "Behold, you are with child, and shall bear a son; you shall call his na me Ish'mael; because the LORD has given heed to your affliction.
rsv@Genesis:16:12 @ He shall be a wild ass of a man, his hand against every man and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell over against all his kins men."

rsv@Genesis:17:1 @ When Abram was ninety-nine years old the LORD appeared to Abram, and said to him, "I am God Almighty; walk before me, and be bla meless.
rsv@Genesis:17:2 @ And I will make my covenant between me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly."
rsv@Genesis:17:5 @ No longer shall your na me be Abram, but your na me shall be Abraham; for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations.

rsv@Genesis:17:27 @ and all the men of his house, those born in the house and those bought with money from a foreigner, were circumcised with him.
rsv@Genesis:18:2 @ He lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, three men stood in front of him. When he saw them, he ran from the tent door to meet them, and bowed himself to the earth,
rsv@Genesis:18:5 @ while I fetch a morsel of bread, that you may refresh yourselves, and after that you may pass on--since you have co me to your servant." So they said, "Do as you have said."
rsv@Genesis:18:6 @ And Abraham hastened into the tent to Sarah, and said, "Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes."

rsv@Genesis:19:17 @ And when they had brought them forth, they said, "Flee for your life; do not look back or stop anywhere in the valley; flee to the hills, lest you be consu med."
rsv@Genesis:19:19 @ behold, your servant has found favor in your sight, and you have shown me great kindness in saving my life; but I cannot flee to the hills, lest the disaster overtake me, and I die.
rsv@Genesis:19:20 @ Behold, yonder city is near enough to flee to, and it is a little one. Let me escape there--is it not a little one?--and my life will be saved!"
rsv@Genesis:19:22 @ Make haste, escape there; for I can do nothing till you arrive there." Therefore the na me of the city was called Zo'ar.
rsv@Genesis:19:23 @ The sun had risen on the earth when Lot ca me to Zo'ar.
rsv@Genesis:19:26 @ But Lot's wife behind him looked back, and she beca me a pillar of salt.
rsv@Genesis:19:29 @ So it was that, when God destroyed the cities of the valley, God re membered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in which Lot dwelt.
rsv@Genesis:19:31 @ And the first-born said to the younger, "Our father is old, and there is not a man on earth to co me in to us after the manner of all the earth.
rsv@Genesis:19:32 @ Co me, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve offspring through our father."
rsv@Genesis:19:37 @ The first-born bore a son, and called his na me Moab; he is the father of the Moabites to this day.

rsv@Genesis:20:3 @ But God ca me to Abim'elech in a dream by night, and said to him, "Behold, you are a dead man, because of the woman whom you have taken; for she is a man's wife."
rsv@Genesis:20:5 @ Did he not himself say to me, `She is my sister'? And she herself said, `He is my brother.' In the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands I have done this."
rsv@Genesis:20:6 @ Then God said to him in the dream, "Yes, I know that you have done this in the integrity of your heart, and it was I who kept you from sinning against me; therefore I did not let you touch her.
rsv@Genesis:20:8 @ So Abim'elech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told them all these things; and the men were very much afraid.
rsv@Genesis:20:9 @ Then Abim'elech called Abraham, and said to him, "What have you done to us? And how have I sinned against you, that you have brought on me and my kingdom a great sin? You have done to me things that ought not to be done."
rsv@Genesis:20:11 @ Abraham said, "I did it because I thought, There is no fear of God at all in this place, and they will kill me because of my wife.
rsv@Genesis:20:12 @ Besides she is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father but not the daughter of my mother; and she beca me my wife.
rsv@Genesis:20:13 @ And when God caused me to wander from my father's house, I said to her, `This is the kindness you must do me: at every place to which we co me, say of me, He is my brother.'"
rsv@Genesis:21:2 @ And Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age at the ti me of which God had spoken to him.
rsv@Genesis:21:3 @ Abraham called the na me of his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore him, Isaac.
rsv@Genesis:21:6 @ And Sarah said, "God has made laughter for me; every one who hears will laugh over me."
rsv@Genesis:21:12 @ But God said to Abraham, "Be not displeased because of the lad and because of your slave woman; whatever Sarah says to you, do as she tells you, for through Isaac shall your descendants be na med.
rsv@Genesis:21:16 @ Then she went, and sat down over against him a good way off, about the distance of a bowshot; for she said, "Let me not look upon the death of the child." And as she sat over against him, the child lifted up his voice and wept.
rsv@Genesis:21:20 @ And God was with the lad, and he grew up; he lived in the wilderness, and beca me an expert with the bow.
rsv@Genesis:21:22 @ At that ti me Abim'elech and Phicol the commander of his army said to Abraham, "God is with you in all that you do;
rsv@Genesis:21:23 @ now therefore swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me or with my offspring or with my posterity, but as I have dealt loyally with you, you will deal with me and with the land where you have sojourned."
rsv@Genesis:21:26 @ Abim'elech said, "I do not know who has done this thing; you did not tell me, and I have not heard of it until today."
rsv@Genesis:21:27 @ So Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them to Abim'elech, and the two men made a covenant.
rsv@Genesis:21:29 @ And Abim'elech said to Abraham, "What is the meaning of these seven ewe lambs which you have set apart?"
rsv@Genesis:21:30 @ He said, "These seven ewe lambs you will take from my hand, that you may be a witness for me that I dug this well."

rsv@Genesis:22:3 @ So Abraham rose early in the morning, saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and his son Isaac; and he cut the wood for the burnt offering, and arose and went to the place of which God had told him.
rsv@Genesis:22:5 @ Then Abraham said to his young men, "Stay here with the ass; I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and co me again to you."
rsv@Genesis:22:9 @ When they ca me to the place of which God had told him, Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, upon the wood.
rsv@Genesis:22:12 @ He said, "Do not lay your hand on the lad or do anything to him; for now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me."
rsv@Genesis:22:14 @ So Abraham called the na me of that place The LORD will provide; as it is said to this day, "On the mount of the LORD it shall be provided."
rsv@Genesis:22:15 @ And the angel of the LORD called to Abraham a second ti me from heaven,

rsv@Genesis:23:9 @ that he may give me the cave of Mach-pe'lah, which he owns; it is at the end of his field. For the full price let him give it to me in your presence as a possession for a burying place."
rsv@Genesis:23:11 @ "No, my lord, hear me; I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it; in the presence of the sons of my people I give it to you; bury your dead."
rsv@Genesis:23:13 @ And he said to Ephron in the hearing of the people of the land, "But if you will, hear me; I will give the price of the field; accept it from me, that I may bury my dead there."
rsv@Genesis:23:15 @ "My lord, listen to me; a piece of land worth four hundred shekels of silver, what is that between you and me? Bury your dead."
rsv@Genesis:23:16 @ Abraham agreed with Ephron; and Abraham weighed out for Ephron the silver which he had na med in the hearing of the Hittites, four hundred shekels of silver, according to the weights current among the merchants.
rsv@Genesis:24:5 @ The servant said to him, "Perhaps the woman may not be willing to follow me to this land; must I then take your son back to the land from which you ca me?"
rsv@Genesis:24:7 @ The LORD, the God of heaven, who took me from my father's house and from the land of my birth, and who spoke to me and swore to me, `To your descendants I will give this land,' he will send his angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from there.

rsv@Genesis:24:14 @ Let the maiden to whom I shall say, `Pray let down your jar that I may drink,' and who shall say, `Drink, and I will water your ca mels'--let her be the one whom thou hast appointed for thy servant Isaac. By this I shall know that thou hast shown steadfast love to my master."
rsv@Genesis:24:15 @ Before he had done speaking, behold, Rebekah, who was born to Bethu'el the son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, ca me out with her water jar upon her shoulder.
rsv@Genesis:24:16 @ The maiden was very fair to look upon, a virgin, whom no man had known. She went down to the spring, and filled her jar, and ca me up.
