*
Now the Lord had said unto Abram ,
Get thee out of thy country ,
and out of thy birthplace ,
and from thy father
s house ,
unto the land that I will show thee .
*
And I will make of thee a great nation ,
and I will bless thee ,
and make thy name great ;
and thou shalt be a blessing :
*
And I will bless those that bless thee ,
and him that curseth thee ,
will I curse ;
and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed .
*
So Abram departed ,
as the Lord had spoken unto him ,
and Lot went with him ;
and Abram was seventy and five years old at his departure out of Charan .
*
And Abram took Sarai his wife ,
and Lot his brother
s son ,
and all their substance that they had acquired ,
and the persons that they had obtained in Charan ;
and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan ;
and they came into the land of Canaan .
*
And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Shechem ,
unto the plain of Moreh ;
and the Canaanite was then in the land .
*
And the Lord appeared unto Abram ,
and said ,
Unto thy seed will I give this land .
And he built there an altar unto the Lord ,
who had appeared unto him .
*
And he removed from there unto the mountain on the east of Beth
el ,
and pitched his tent ,
having Beth
el on the west ,
and
Ai on the east ;
and he built there an altar unto the Lord ,
and called upon the name of the Lord .
