rotherham@Genesis:10:9 @ he, became a hero of hunting before Yahweh, for this cause, it is said. Like Nimrod, a hero of hunting before Yahweh.

rotherham@Genesis:10:10 @ So the beginning of his kingdom came to be Babel, and Erech, and Accad and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

rotherham@Genesis:10:32 @ These, are the families of the sons of Noah, by their generations in their nations, and from these, were dispersed the nations in the earth after the flood.

rotherham@Genesis:11:1 @ So it came to pass that, all the earth, was of one manner of speech, and of one stock of words.

rotherham@Genesis:11:2 @ And it came to pass as they brake away onwards, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and dwelt there.

rotherham@Genesis:11:3 @ Then said they, each man to his friend, Come on! let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly, So the bricks, served them for stone, and bitumen, served them for mortar,

rotherham@Genesis:11:4 @ And they said Come on! let us build for ourselves a city, and a tower with its head in the heavens, so let us make for ourselves a name, lest we be scattered abroad over the face of all the earth.

rotherham@Genesis:11:5 @ And Yahweh came down, to behold the city, and the tower, which the sons of men had built.

rotherham@Genesis:11:6 @ Then said Yahweh: Lo! one people and one manner of speech, have they all, this, then is what they have begun to do, now, therefore, nothing will be withholden from them which they may plan to do.

rotherham@Genesis:11:7 @ Come on! let us go down, and there confuse their speech, that they may not under-stand, each man the speech of his friend.

rotherham@Genesis:11:8 @ So Yahweh scattered them from thence over the face of all the earth, and so they left off building the city.

rotherham@Genesis:11:9 @ For this cause, was the name thereof called Babel; because there, did Yahweh confuse the speech of all the earth, and, from thence, did Yahweh scatter them abroad, over the face of all the earth. \fs15

rotherham@Genesis:12:4 @ And Abram came on his way, according to that which Yahweh had spoken unto him, and Lot came with him, now, Abram, was seventy-five years old, when he came forth out of Haran.

rotherham@Genesis:12:5 @ And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brothers son, with all the goods that they bad gathered and the souls that they had gained in Haran, and they came forth to go towards the land of Canaan, and came in to the land of Canaan.

rotherham@Genesis:12:6 @ And Abram passed along throughout the land, as far as the place of Shechem as far as the Teachers Terebinth, the Canaanite being then in the land.

rotherham@Genesis:12:7 @ And Yahweh appeared unto Abram, and said: To thy seed, will I give this land, And he built there an altar, unto Yahweh who appeared unto him.

rotherham@Genesis:12:8 @ And he moved on from thence towards the hill country, on the east of Bethel and pitched his tent, with Bethel on the west, and Ai on the east, and bulk there an altar to Yahweh, and called on the name of Yahweh.

rotherham@Genesis:12:9 @ Thus Abram brake up, again and again, towards the South.

rotherham@Genesis:12:10 @ And it came to pass that there was a famine, in the land, so Abram went down towards Egypt, to sojourn there, because grievous, was the famine in the land.

rotherham@Genesis:12:11 @ And it came to pass when he had come near to enter into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife: Behold! I beseech thee I know that a woman fair to look on, thou art:

rotherham@Genesis:12:12 @ so will it come to pass when the Egyptians behold thee, that they will say, His wife, this! and will slay me while thee, they preserve alive.

rotherham@Genesis:12:13 @ Say, I beseech thee that my sister, art thou, to the end it may be well with me for thy sake, so shall my soul be preserved alive because of thee.

rotherham@Genesis:12:15 @ And the princes of Pharaoh beheld her, and praised her unto Pharaoh, so the woman was taken to the house of Pharaoh;

rotherham@Genesis:12:16 @ and with Abram, dealt he well for her sake, so that he came to have flocks and herds and he-asses, and men-servants, and maid-servants, and she-asses and camels.

rotherham@Genesis:12:17 @ And Yahweh plagued Pharaoh with great plagues, also his house, for the matter of Sarai, wife of Abram.

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

rotherham@Genesis:12:19 @ Wherefore saidst thou My sister, she; and so I was about to take her to me, to wife? But now, lo! thy wife take her and go thy way.

rotherham@Genesis:12:20 @ And Pharaoh gave command concerning him unto certain men, and sent him away, with his wife and all that he had.

rotherham@Genesis:13:1 @ So Abram came up out of Egypt he and his wife and all that he had and Lot with him, towards the South.

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

rotherham@Genesis:13:3 @ And he went his way, by his removals, from the South even as far as to Bethel, as far as the place where his tent was at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai:

rotherham@Genesis:13:4 @ unto the place of the altar, which he made there at first, and Abram called there, on the name of Yahweh.

rotherham@Genesis:13:5 @ Now, Lot also, who was going with Abram, had flocks and herds and tents.

rotherham@Genesis:13:6 @ And the land suffered them not to dwell together, because their substance had become, great, so that they could not dwell together.

rotherham@Genesis:13:7 @ And there arose a strife betwixt the herdmen of Abram, and the herdmen of Lot. Now the Canaanite and the Perizzite, were then dwelling in the land.

rotherham@Genesis:13:8 @ So then Abram said unto Lot Pray let not cause of strife arise betwixt me and thee, or betwixt my herdmen and thy herdmen; for brethren, are we.

rotherham@Genesis:13:9 @ Is not, all the land, before thee? I pray thee, separate thyself from me, if to the left hand, then I will go to the right, if to the right hand, then I will go to the left.

rotherham@Genesis:13:10 @ So Lot lifted up his eyes and beheld all the circuit of the Jordan, that the whole of it, was well-watered, before Yahweh destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the Garden of Yahweh, like the land of Egypt, as thou enterest into Zoar.

rotherham@Genesis:13:11 @ And Lot chose for himself all the circuit of the Jordan, so Lot brake up eastwards, and they separated themselves, each man from his brother:

rotherham@Genesis:13:12 @ Abram, fixed his dwelling in the land of Canaan, but, Lot, fixed his dwelling among the cities, of the circuit, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.

rotherham@Genesis:13:13 @ Now, the men of Sodom were base and sinful, against Yahweh, exceedingly.

rotherham@Genesis:13:14 @ And, Yahweh, said unto Abram after that Lot had separated himself from him, Lift up, I pray thee thine eyes and look, from the place where thou art, northward and southward and eastward and westward;

rotherham@Genesis:13:15 @ for all the land which thou art beholdingto thee, will I give it, and to thy seed unto times age-abiding;

rotherham@Genesis:13:16 @ and I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth, so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, thy seed also, may be numbered.

rotherham@Genesis:13:17 @ Rise! go up and down in the land, to the length thereof and to the breadth thereof, for to thee, will I give it.

rotherham@Genesis:13:18 @ So Abram moved his tent and came in and dwelt among the oaks of Mamre, which were in Hebron, and built there an altar to Yahweh.

rotherham@Genesis:14:1 @ And it came to pass, in the days of Amraphel, king of Shinar, Arioch, king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goim,

rotherham@Genesis:14:2 @ that they made war, with Bera, king of Sodom, and with Birsha, king of Gomorrah, Shinab, king of Admah, and Shemeber, king of Zeboim, and the king of Belathe same, is Zoar.

rotherham@Genesis:14:3 @ All these, joined together in the valley of the open fields, the same, is the Salt Sea.

rotherham@Genesis:14:4 @ Twelve years, had they served Chedorlaomer, but in the thirteenth year had they rebelled;

rotherham@Genesis:14:5 @ and in the fourteenth year, had Chedorlaomer come in and the kings who were with him, so they smote the Rephaim in Ashteroth-karnaim, and the Zuzim in Ham, and the Emim, in Shaveh-kiriathaim;

rotherham@Genesis:14:6 @ and the Horites in their Mount Seir, as far as El-paran, which is by the desert.

rotherham@Genesis:14:7 @ So they returned and came in unto En-mishpat, the same, is Kadish, and smote all the field of the Amalekites, and the Amorites also that dwelt in Hazazon-tamar,

rotherham@Genesis:14:8 @ Thus then went forth the King of Sodom and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah and the king of Zeboim, and the king of Bela the same, is Zoarand set themselves in array against them for battle, in the valley of the open fields:

rotherham@Genesis:14:9 @ against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goim, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar, four kings against five.

rotherham@Genesis:14:10 @ Now, the valley of the open fields, had many pits of bitumen, so the king of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there, while, they who remained, towards a mountain, fled.

rotherham@Genesis:14:11 @ And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah and all their food and went their way.

rotherham@Genesis:14:12 @ And they took Lot, Abrams brothers son with his goods, and went their way, he, being a dweller in Sodom.

rotherham@Genesis:14:13 @ Then came in a fugitive, and told Abram the Hebrew, he, having his dwelling among the oaks of Mature the Amorite brother of Eshcol and brother of Aner, they, also having a covenant with Abram.

rotherham@Genesis:14:14 @ So Abram, hearing that his brother had been taken captive, drew forth his trained men born in his house three hundred and eighteen, and pursued as far as Daniel.

rotherham@Genesis:14:15 @ And he divided himself against them by night, he, and his servants, and smote them, and pursued them as far as Hobah, which was on the left of Damascus.

rotherham@Genesis:14:16 @ So he brought back all the goods, yea Lot also his brother with his goods, did he bring back, and the women also, and the people.

rotherham@Genesis:14:17 @ Then came forth the king of Sodom to meet him, after his return from the smiting of Chedorlaomer, and the kings who were with him, into the vale of Shaveh the same, was the vale of the king.

rotherham@Genesis:14:18 @ flow Melchizedek king of Salem, had brought forth bread and wine, he, being priest of GOD Most High.

rotherham@Genesis:14:19 @ So he blessed him and said, Blessed be Abram of GOD Most High, possessor of heavens and earth;

rotherham@Genesis:14:20 @ And blessed be GOD Most High, who hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. So he gave unto him a tenth of all.

rotherham@Genesis:14:21 @ Then said the king of Sodom unto Abram, Give unto me the persons, but the goods, take thou for thyself.

rotherham@Genesis:14:22 @ And Abram said unto the king of Sodom, I have lifted up my hand unto Yahweh GOD Most High, possessor of heavens and earth:

rotherham@Genesis:14:23 @ That not from a thread even unto a sandal-thong, will I take, anything, that is thine, Lest thou shouldst say, I, enriched Abram!

rotherham@Genesis:14:24 @ Save only what the young men have eaten, and the share of the men who went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre, they may rake their share.

rotherham@Genesis:15:1 @ After these things, came the word of Yahweh unto Abram, in a vision saying, Do not fear Abram, am a shield to thee, thine exceeding great reward.

rotherham@Genesis:15:2 @ And Abram said My Lord Yahweh, what canst thou give me, when, I, am going on childless, and the heir of my house, is Eliezer, of Damascus,

rotherham@Genesis:15:3 @ And Abram said Lo, to me, hast thou not given seed,

rotherham@Genesis:15:4 @ And lo! a son of my household, is mine heir! And lo! the word of Yahweh unto him, saying, This one, shall not be thine heir: But one who cometh forth of thy bodyhe shall be thine heir.

rotherham@Genesis:15:5 @ And he brought him forth abroad and said Look steadfastly. I pray thee towards the heavens, and number the stars, if thou be able to number, them, And he said to him, Thus, shall be thy seed.

rotherham@Genesis:15:6 @ And he had faith in Yahweh, so he reckoned it to him as righteousness.

rotherham@Genesis:15:7 @ And he said unto him, I, am Yahweh, who brought thee forth out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.

rotherham@Genesis:15:8 @ And he said, My Lord Yahweh, whereby, can I know that I shall inherit it?

rotherham@Genesis:15:9 @ And he said unto him, Take for me a heifer three years old, and a she-goat three years old, and a ram three years old, and a turtle-dove and a young pigeon.

rotherham@Genesis:15:10 @ So he took for him all these, and divided them, in the midst, and placed each piece over against its fellow, hut the birds, divided he not.

rotherham@Genesis:15:11 @ Then came down the birds of prey upon the carcass, and Abram drove them away.

rotherham@Genesis:15:12 @ And it came to pass when, the sun, was shout to go in. and a deep sleep, had fallen upon Abram, lo! a terror a great darkness, was falling upon him.

rotherham@Genesis:15:13 @ And he said to Abram Thou must surely know, that, sojourners, will thy seed become in a land not theirs, and shall serve them and they will humble them, four hundred years;

rotherham@Genesis:15:14 @ moreover also, the nation whom they will serve, I, am going to judge, and after that, shall they come forth with great substance.

rotherham@Genesis:15:15 @ But, thou, shalt go in unto thy fathers in peace, thou shalt be buried in a good old age.

rotherham@Genesis:15:16 @ And, in the fourth generation, shall they return hither, for not complete, is the iniquity of the Amorites, as yet,

rotherham@Genesis:15:17 @ So it came to pass when, the sun, had gone in, and Ira thick darkness, had come on, that lo there was a smoking hearth and torch of fire, which passed through between these pieces.

rotherham@Genesis:15:18 @ In that day, did Yahweh solemnise with Abram a covenant, saying, To thy seed, have I given this land, from the river of Egypt as far as the great riverthe river Euphrates:

rotherham@Genesis:16:1 @ But Sarai, Abrams wife, had borne him no children, she had, however, an Egyptian handmaid, whose name was Hagar.

rotherham@Genesis:16:2 @ So then Sarai said unto Abram Behold, I pray thee, Yahweh hath restrained me, from bearing, go in I pray thee unto, my handmaid, peradventure I may be built up from, her, And Abram hearkened to the voice of Sarai.

rotherham@Genesis:16:3 @ So Sarai, Abrams wife, took Hagar the Egyptian. her handmaid, at the end of ten years of Abrams dwelling in the land of Canaan, and gave her to Abram her husband, to be to him as a wife.
