rsv@Genesis:1:9 @ And God said, "Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear." And it was so.

rsv@Genesis:1:10 @ God called the dry land Earth, and the waters that were gathered together he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.

rsv@Genesis:1:11 @ And God said, "Let the earth put forth vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind, upon the earth." And it was so.

rsv@Genesis:1:12 @ The earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed according to their own kinds, and trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

rsv@Genesis:1:14 @ And God said, "Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to separate the day from the night; and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years,

rsv@Genesis:1:15 @ and let them be lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light upon the earth." And it was so.

rsv@Genesis:1:16 @ And God made the two great lights, the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night; he made the stars also.

rsv@Genesis:1:17 @ And God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light upon the earth,

rsv@Genesis:1:18 @ to rule over the day and over the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.

rsv@Genesis:1:21 @ So God created the great sea monsters and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarm, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

rsv@Genesis:1:24 @ And God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kinds: cattle and creeping things and beasts of the earth according to their kinds." And it was so.

rsv@Genesis:1:25 @ And God made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds and the cattle according to their kinds, and everything that creeps upon the ground according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

rsv@Genesis:1:28 @ And God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves upon the earth."

rsv@Genesis:1:30 @ And to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, everything that has the breath of life, I have given every green plant for food." And it was so.

rsv@Genesis:2:5 @ when no plant of the field was yet in the earth and no herb of the field had yet sprung up--for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was no man to till the ground;

rsv@Genesis:2:7 @ then the LORD God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

rsv@Genesis:2:9 @ And out of the ground the LORD God made to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food, the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

rsv@Genesis:2:10 @ A river flowed out of Eden to water the garden, and there it divided and became four rivers.

rsv@Genesis:2:12 @ and the gold of that land is good; bdellium and onyx stone are there.

rsv@Genesis:2:15 @ The LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to till it and keep it.

rsv@Genesis:2:19 @ So out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them; and whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name.

rsv@Genesis:2:20 @ The man gave names to all cattle, and to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for the man there was not found a helper fit for him.

rsv@Genesis:2:21 @ So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and while he slept took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh;

rsv@Genesis:2:22 @ and the rib which the LORD God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man.

rsv@Genesis:2:24 @ Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and cleaves to his wife, and they become one flesh.

rsv@Genesis:3:1 @ Now the serpent was more subtle than any other wild creature that the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God say, `You shall not eat of any tree of the garden'?"

rsv@Genesis:3:2 @ And the woman said to the serpent, "We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden;

rsv@Genesis:3:3 @ but God said, `You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.'"

rsv@Genesis:3:4 @ But the serpent said to the woman, "You will not die.

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

rsv@Genesis:3:7 @ Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves aprons.

rsv@Genesis:3:9 @ But the LORD God called to the man, and said to him, "Where are you?"

rsv@Genesis:3:11 @ He said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten of the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?"

rsv@Genesis:3:12 @ The man said, "The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me fruit of the tree, and I ate."

rsv@Genesis:3:13 @ Then the LORD God said to the woman, "What is this that you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent beguiled me, and I ate."

rsv@Genesis:3:14 @ The LORD God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this, cursed are you above all cattle, and above all wild animals; upon your belly you shall go, and dust you shall eat all the days of your life.

rsv@Genesis:3:16 @ To the woman he said, "I will greatly multiply your pain in childbearing; in pain you shall bring forth children, yet your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you."

rsv@Genesis:3:17 @ And to Adam he said, "Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten of the tree of which I commanded you, `You shall not eat of it,' cursed is the ground because of you; in toil you shall eat of it all the days of your life;

rsv@Genesis:3:18 @ thorns and thistles it shall bring forth to you; and you shall eat the plants of the field.

rsv@Genesis:3:19 @ In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; you are dust, and to dust you shall return."

rsv@Genesis:3:23 @ therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.

rsv@Genesis:3:24 @ He drove out the man; and at the east of the garden of Eden he placed the cherubim, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to guard the way to the tree of life.

rsv@Genesis:4:3 @ In the course of time Cain brought to the LORD an offering of the fruit of the ground,

rsv@Genesis:4:6 @ The LORD said to Cain, "Why are you angry, and why has your countenance fallen?

rsv@Genesis:4:8 @ Cain said to Abel his brother, "Let us go out to the field." And when they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel, and killed him.

rsv@Genesis:4:9 @ Then the LORD said to Cain, "Where is Abel your brother?" He said, "I do not know; am I my brother's keeper?"

rsv@Genesis:4:10 @ And the LORD said, "What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood is crying to me from the ground.

rsv@Genesis:4:11 @ And now you are cursed from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand.

rsv@Genesis:4:12 @ When you till the ground, it shall no longer yield to you its strength; you shall be a fugitive and a wanderer on the earth."

rsv@Genesis:4:13 @ Cain said to the LORD, "My punishment is greater than I can bear.

rsv@Genesis:4:15 @ Then the LORD said to him, "Not so! If any one slays Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold." And the LORD put a mark on Cain, lest any who came upon him should kill him.

rsv@Genesis:4:18 @ To Enoch was born Irad; and Irad was the father of Me-hu'ja-el, and Me-hu'ja-el the father of Me-thu'sha-el, and Me-thu'sha-el the father of Lamech.

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

rsv@Genesis:4:23 @ Lamech said to his wives: "Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; you wives of Lamech, hearken to what I say: I have slain a man for wounding me, a young man for striking me.

rsv@Genesis:4:26 @ To Seth also a son was born, and he called his name Enosh. At that time men began to call upon the name of the LORD.

rsv@Genesis:5:24 @ Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.

rsv@Genesis:5:29 @ and called his name Noah, saying, "Out of the ground which the LORD has cursed this one shall bring us relief from our work and from the toil of our hands."

rsv@Genesis:6:1 @ When men began to multiply on the face of the ground, and daughters were born to them,

rsv@Genesis:6:2 @ the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were fair; and they took to wife such of them as they chose.

rsv@Genesis:6:4 @ The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men, and they bore children to them. These were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown.

rsv@Genesis:6:6 @ And the LORD was sorry that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him to his heart.

rsv@Genesis:6:13 @ And God said to Noah, "I have determined to make an end of all flesh; for the earth is filled with violence through them; behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

rsv@Genesis:6:15 @ This is how you are to make it: the length of the ark three hundred cubits, its breadth fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits.

rsv@Genesis:6:16 @ Make a roof for the ark, and finish it to a cubit above; and set the door of the ark in its side; make it with lower, second, and third decks.

rsv@Genesis:6:17 @ For behold, I will bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life from under heaven; everything that is on the earth shall die.

rsv@Genesis:6:18 @ But I will establish my covenant with you; and you shall come into the ark, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons' wives with you.

rsv@Genesis:6:19 @ And of every living thing of all flesh, you shall bring two of every sort into the ark, to keep them alive with you; they shall be male and female.

rsv@Genesis:6:20 @ Of the birds according to their kinds, and of the animals according to their kinds, of every creeping thing of the ground according to its kind, two of every sort shall come in to you, to keep them alive.

rsv@Genesis:6:21 @ Also take with you every sort of food that is eaten, and store it up; and it shall serve as food for you and for them."

rsv@Genesis:7:1 @ Then the LORD said to Noah, "Go into the ark, you and all your household, for I have seen that you are righteous before me in this generation.

rsv@Genesis:7:3 @ and seven pairs of the birds of the air also, male and female, to keep their kind alive upon the face of all the earth.

rsv@Genesis:7:7 @ And Noah and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives with him went into the ark, to escape the waters of the flood.

rsv@Genesis:7:9 @ two and two, male and female, went into the ark with Noah, as God had commanded Noah.

rsv@Genesis:7:14 @ they and every beast according to its kind, and all the cattle according to their kinds, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth according to its kind, and every bird according to its kind, every bird of every sort.

rsv@Genesis:7:15 @ They went into the ark with Noah, two and two of all flesh in which there was the breath of life.

rsv@Genesis:8:4 @ and in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ark came to rest upon the mountains of Ar'arat.

rsv@Genesis:8:5 @ And the waters continued to abate until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.

rsv@Genesis:8:7 @ and sent forth a raven; and it went to and fro until the waters were dried up from the earth.

rsv@Genesis:8:8 @ Then he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters had subsided from the face of the ground;

rsv@Genesis:8:9 @ but the dove found no place to set her foot, and she returned to him to the ark, for the waters were still on the face of the whole earth. So he put forth his hand and took her and brought her into the ark with him.

rsv@Genesis:8:11 @ and the dove came back to him in the evening, and lo, in her mouth a freshly plucked olive leaf; so Noah knew that the waters had subsided from the earth.

rsv@Genesis:8:12 @ Then he waited another seven days, and sent forth the dove; and she did not return to him any more.

rsv@Genesis:8:15 @ Then God said to Noah,

rsv@Genesis:8:20 @ Then Noah built an altar to the LORD, and took of every clean animal and of every clean bird, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.

rsv@Genesis:9:1 @ And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth.

rsv@Genesis:9:2 @ The fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every bird of the air, upon everything that creeps on the ground and all the fish of the sea; into your hand they are delivered.

rsv@Genesis:9:8 @ Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him,

rsv@Genesis:9:11 @ I establish my covenant with you, that never again shall all flesh be cut off by the waters of a flood, and never again shall there be a flood to destroy the earth."

rsv@Genesis:9:15 @ I will remember my covenant which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.

rsv@Genesis:9:17 @ God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth."

rsv@Genesis:9:22 @ And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside.

rsv@Genesis:9:23 @ Then Shem and Japheth took a garment, laid it upon both their shoulders, and walked backward and covered the nakedness of their father; their faces were turned away, and they did not see their father's nakedness.

rsv@Genesis:9:24 @ When Noah awoke from his wine and knew what his youngest son had done to him,

rsv@Genesis:9:25 @ he said, "Cursed be Canaan; a slave of slaves shall he be to his brothers."

rsv@Genesis:10:1 @ These are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth; sons were born to them after the flood.

rsv@Genesis:10:3 @ The sons of Gomer: Ash'kenaz, Riphath, and Togar'mah.

rsv@Genesis:10:8 @ Cush became the father of Nimrod; he was the first on earth to be a mighty man.

rsv@Genesis:10:11 @ From that land he went into Assyria, and built Nin'eveh, Reho'both-Ir, Calah, and

rsv@Genesis:10:14 @ Pathru'sim, Caslu'him (whence came the Philistines), and Caph'torim.

rsv@Genesis:10:19 @ And the territory of the Canaanites extended from Sidon, in the direction of Gerar, as far as Gaza, and in the direction of Sodom, Gomor'rah, Admah, and Zeboi'im, as far as Lasha.

rsv@Genesis:10:21 @ To Shem also, the father of all the children of Eber, the elder brother of Japheth, children were born.

rsv@Genesis:10:25 @ To Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided, and his brother's name was Joktan.

rsv@Genesis:10:30 @ The territory in which they lived extended from Mesha in the direction of Sephar to the hill country of the east.

rsv@Genesis:10:32 @ These are the families of the sons of Noah, according to their genealogies, in their nations; and from these the nations spread abroad on the earth after the flood.

rsv@Genesis:11:3 @ And they said to one another, "Come, let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly." And they had brick for stone, and bitumen for mortar.

rsv@Genesis:11:4 @ Then they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth."

rsv@Genesis:11:5 @ And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the sons of men had built.

rsv@Genesis:11:6 @ And the LORD said, "Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language; and this is only the beginning of what they will do; and nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them.

rsv@Genesis:11:29 @ And Abram and Nahor took wives; the name of Abram's wife was Sar'ai, and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran the father of Milcah and Iscah.

rsv@Genesis:11:31 @ Terah took Abram his son and Lot the son of Haran, his grandson, and Sar'ai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram's wife, and they went forth together from Ur of the Chalde'ans to go into the land of Canaan; but when they came to Haran, they settled there.

rsv@Genesis:12:1 @ Now the LORD said to Abram, "Go from your country and your kindred and your father's house to the land that I will show you.

rsv@Genesis:12:4 @ So Abram went, as the LORD had told him; and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed from Haran.

rsv@Genesis:12:5 @ And Abram took Sar'ai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their possessions which they had gathered, and the persons that they had gotten in Haran; and they set forth to go to the land of Canaan. When they had come to the land of Canaan,

rsv@Genesis:12:6 @ Abram passed through the land to the place at Shechem, to the oak of Moreh. At that time the Canaanites were in the land.

rsv@Genesis:12:7 @ Then the LORD appeared to Abram, and said, "To your descendants I will give this land." So he built there an altar to the LORD, who had appeared to him.

rsv@Genesis:12:8 @ Thence he removed to the mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east; and there he built an altar to the LORD and called on the name of the LORD.

rsv@Genesis:12:9 @ And Abram journeyed on, still going toward the Negeb.

rsv@Genesis:12:10 @ Now there was a famine in the land. So Abram went down to Egypt to sojourn there, for the famine was severe in the land.

rsv@Genesis:12:11 @ When he was about to enter Egypt, he said to Sar'ai his wife, "I know that you are a woman beautiful to behold;

rsv@Genesis:12:15 @ And when the princes of Pharaoh saw her, they praised her to Pharaoh. And the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.

rsv@Genesis:12:18 @ So Pharaoh called Abram, and said, "What is this you have done to me? Why did you not tell me that she was your wife?

rsv@Genesis:12:19 @ Why did you say, `She is my sister,' so that I took her for my wife? Now then, here is your wife, take her, and be gone."

rsv@Genesis:13:1 @ So Abram went up from Egypt, he and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the Negeb.

rsv@Genesis:13:3 @ And he journeyed on from the Negeb as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,

rsv@Genesis:13:4 @ to the place where he had made an altar at the first; and there Abram called on the name of the LORD.

rsv@Genesis:13:6 @ so that the land could not support both of them dwelling together; for their possessions were so great that they could not dwell together,

rsv@Genesis:13:8 @ Then Abram said to Lot, "Let there be no strife between you and me, and between your herdsmen and my herdsmen; for we are kinsmen.

rsv@Genesis:13:9 @ Is not the whole land before you? Separate yourself from me. If you take the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if you take the right hand, then I will go to the left."

rsv@Genesis:13:14 @ The LORD said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him, "Lift up your eyes, and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward;

rsv@Genesis:13:15 @ for all the land which you see I will give to you and to your descendants for ever.

rsv@Genesis:13:17 @ Arise, walk through the length and the breadth of the land, for I will give it to you."

rsv@Genesis:13:18 @ So Abram moved his tent, and came and dwelt by the oaks of Mamre, which are at Hebron; and there he built an altar to the LORD.

rsv@Genesis:14:7 @ then they turned back and came to Enmish'pat (that is, Kadesh), and subdued all the country of the Amal'ekites, and also the Amorites who dwelt in Haz'azon-ta'mar.

rsv@Genesis:14:10 @ Now the Valley of Siddim was full of bitumen pits; and as the kings of Sodom and Gomor'rah fled, some fell into them, and the rest fled to the mountain.

rsv@Genesis:14:11 @ So the enemy took all the goods of Sodom and Gomor'rah, and all their provisions, and went their way;

rsv@Genesis:14:12 @ they also took Lot, the son of Abram's brother, who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.

rsv@Genesis:14:13 @ Then one who had escaped came, and told Abram the Hebrew, who was living by the oaks of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol and of Aner; these were allies of Abram.

rsv@Genesis:14:15 @ And he divided his forces against them by night, he and his servants, and routed them and pursued them to Hobah, north of Damascus.

rsv@Genesis:14:17 @ After his return from the defeat of Ched-or-lao'mer and the kings who were with him, the king of Sodom went out to meet him at the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King's Valley).

rsv@Genesis:14:20 @ and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand!" And Abram gave him a tenth of everything.

rsv@Genesis:14:21 @ And the king of Sodom said to Abram, "Give me the persons, but take the goods for yourself."

rsv@Genesis:14:22 @ But Abram said to the king of Sodom, "I have sworn to the LORD God Most High, maker of heaven and earth,

rsv@Genesis:15:1 @ After these things the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision, "Fear not, Abram, I am your shield; your reward shall be very great."

rsv@Genesis:15:4 @ And behold, the word of the LORD came to him, "This man shall not be your heir; your own son shall be your heir."

rsv@Genesis:15:5 @ And he brought him outside and said, "Look toward heaven, and number the stars, if you are able to number them." Then he said to him, "So shall your descendants be."

rsv@Genesis:15:6 @ And he believed the LORD; and he reckoned it to him as righteousness.

rsv@Genesis:15:7 @ And he said to him, "I am the LORD who brought you from Ur of the Chalde'ans, to give you this land to possess."

rsv@Genesis:15:8 @ But he said, "O Lord GOD, how am I to know that I shall possess it?"

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:15:13 @ Then the LORD said to Abram, "Know of a surety that your descendants will be sojourners in a land that is not theirs, and will be slaves there, and they will be oppressed for four hundred years;

rsv@Genesis:15:15 @ As for yourself, you shall go to your fathers in peace; you shall be buried in a good old age.

rsv@Genesis:15:17 @ When the sun had gone down and it was dark, behold, a smoking fire pot and a flaming torch passed between these pieces.

rsv@Genesis:15:18 @ On that day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, "To your descendants I give this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphra'tes,

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:16:3 @ So, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, Sar'ai, Abram's wife, took Hagar the Egyptian, her maid, and gave her to Abram her husband as a wife.

rsv@Genesis:16:4 @ And he went in to Hagar, and she conceived; and when she saw that she had conceived, she looked with contempt on her mistress.

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:16:6 @ But Abram said to Sar'ai, "Behold, your maid is in your power; do to her as you please." Then Sar'ai dealt harshly with her, and she fled from her.

rsv@Genesis:16:7 @ The angel of the LORD found her by a spring of water in the wilderness, the spring on the way to Shur.

rsv@Genesis:16:9 @ The angel of the LORD said to her, "Return to your mistress, and submit to her."

rsv@Genesis:16:10 @ The angel of the LORD also said to her, "I will so greatly multiply your descendants that they cannot be numbered for multitude."

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 name Ish'mael; because the LORD has given heed to your affliction.

rsv@Genesis:16:13 @ So she called the name of the LORD who spoke to her, "Thou art a God of seeing"; for she said, "Have I really seen God and remained alive after seeing him?"

rsv@Genesis:16:16 @ Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ish'mael to Abram.

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 blameless.

rsv@Genesis:17:3 @ Then Abram fell on his face; and God said to him,

rsv@Genesis:17:7 @ And I will establish my covenant between me and you and your descendants after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and to your descendants after you.

rsv@Genesis:17:8 @ And I will give to you, and to your descendants after you, the land of your sojournings, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession; and I will be their God."

rsv@Genesis:17:9 @ And God said to Abraham, "As for you, you shall keep my covenant, you and your descendants after you throughout their generations.

rsv@Genesis:17:15 @ And God said to Abraham, "As for Sar'ai your wife, you shall not call her name Sar'ai, but Sarah shall be her name.

rsv@Genesis:17:17 @ Then Abraham fell on his face and laughed, and said to himself, "Shall a child be born to a man who is a hundred years old? Shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear a child?"

rsv@Genesis:17:18 @ And Abraham said to God, "O that Ish'mael might live in thy sight!"

rsv@Genesis:17:21 @ But I will establish my covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear to you at this season next year."

rsv@Genesis:17:23 @ Then Abraham took Ish'mael his son and all the slaves born in his house or bought with his money, every male among the men of Abraham's house, and he circumcised the flesh of their foreskins that very day, as God had said to him.

rsv@Genesis:18:1 @ And the LORD appeared to him by the oaks of Mamre, as he sat at the door of his tent in the heat of the day.

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 come 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:18:7 @ And Abraham ran to the herd, and took a calf, tender and good, and gave it to the servant, who hastened to prepare it.

rsv@Genesis:18:8 @ Then he took curds, and milk, and the calf which he had prepared, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree while they ate.

rsv@Genesis:18:9 @ They said to him, "Where is Sarah your wife?" And he said, "She is in the tent."

rsv@Genesis:18:10 @ The LORD said, "I will surely return to you in the spring, and Sarah your wife shall have a son." And Sarah was listening at the tent door behind him.

rsv@Genesis:18:11 @ Now Abraham and Sarah were old, advanced in age; it had ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.

rsv@Genesis:18:12 @ So Sarah laughed to herself, saying, "After I have grown old, and my husband is old, shall I have pleasure?"

rsv@Genesis:18:13 @ The LORD said to Abraham, "Why did Sarah laugh, and say, `Shall I indeed bear a child, now that I am old?'

rsv@Genesis:18:14 @ Is anything too hard for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you, in the spring, and Sarah shall have a son."

rsv@Genesis:18:16 @ Then the men set out from there, and they looked toward Sodom; and Abraham went with them to set them on their way.

rsv@Genesis:18:17 @ The LORD said, "Shall I hide from Abraham what I am about to do,

rsv@Genesis:18:19 @ No, for I have chosen him, that he may charge his children and his household after him to keep the way of the LORD by doing righteousness and justice; so that the LORD may bring to Abraham what he has promised him."

rsv@Genesis:18:21 @ I will go down to see whether they have done altogether according to the outcry which has come to me; and if not, I will know."

rsv@Genesis:18:22 @ So the men turned from there, and went toward Sodom; but Abraham still stood before the LORD.

rsv@Genesis:18:25 @ Far be it from thee to do such a thing, to slay the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous fare as the wicked! Far be that from thee! Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?"

rsv@Genesis:18:27 @ Abraham answered, "Behold, I have taken upon myself to speak to the Lord, I who am but dust and ashes.

rsv@Genesis:18:29 @ Again he spoke to him, and said, "Suppose forty are found there." He answered, "For the sake of forty I will not do it."

rsv@Genesis:18:31 @ He said, "Behold, I have taken upon myself to speak to the Lord. Suppose twenty are found there." He answered, "For the sake of twenty I will not destroy it."

rsv@Genesis:19:1 @ The two angels came to Sodom in the evening; and Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. When Lot saw them, he rose to meet them, and bowed himself with his face to the earth,

rsv@Genesis:19:2 @ and said, "My lords, turn aside, I pray you, to your servant's house and spend the night, and wash your feet; then you may rise up early and go on your way." They said, "No; we will spend the night in the street."

rsv@Genesis:19:3 @ But he urged them strongly; so they turned aside to him and entered his house; and he made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.

rsv@Genesis:19:4 @ But before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, both young and old, all the people to the last man, surrounded the house;

rsv@Genesis:19:5 @ and they called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us, that we may know them."

rsv@Genesis:19:6 @ Lot went out of the door to the men, shut the door after him,

rsv@Genesis:19:8 @ Behold, I have two daughters who have not known man; let me bring them out to you, and do to them as you please; only do nothing to these men, for they have come under the shelter of my roof."

rsv@Genesis:19:9 @ But they said, "Stand back!" And they said, "This fellow came to sojourn, and he would play the judge! Now we will deal worse with you than with them." Then they pressed hard against the man Lot, and drew near to break the door.

rsv@Genesis:19:10 @ But the men put forth their hands and brought Lot into the house to them, and shut the door.

rsv@Genesis:19:12 @ Then the men said to Lot, "Have you any one else here? Sons-in-law, sons, daughters, or any one you have in the city, bring them out of the place;

rsv@Genesis:19:13 @ for we are about to destroy this place, because the outcry against its people has become great before the LORD, and the LORD has sent us to destroy it."

rsv@Genesis:19:14 @ So Lot went out and said to his sons-in-law, who were to marry his daughters, "Up, get out of this place; for the LORD is about to destroy the city." But he seemed to his sons-in-law to be jesting.

rsv@Genesis:19:16 @ But he lingered; so the men seized him and his wife and his two daughters by the hand, the LORD being merciful to him, and they brought him forth and set him outside the city.

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 consumed."

rsv@Genesis:19:30 @ Now Lot went up out of Zo'ar, and dwelt in the hills with his two daughters, for he was afraid to dwell in Zo'ar; so he dwelt in a cave with his two daughters.

rsv@Genesis:19:38 @ The younger also bore a son, and called his name Ben-ammi; he is the father of the Ammonites to this day.

rsv@Genesis:20:1 @ From there Abraham journeyed toward the territory of the Negeb, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur; and he sojourned in Gerar.

rsv@Genesis:21:3 @ Abraham called the name of his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore him, Isaac.

rsv@Genesis:21:5 @ Abraham was a hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him.

rsv@Genesis:21:7 @ And she said, "Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would suckle children? Yet I have borne him a son in his old age."

rsv@Genesis:21:9 @ But Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, playing with her son Isaac.

rsv@Genesis:21:10 @ So she said to Abraham, "Cast out this slave woman with her son; for the son of this slave woman shall not be heir with my son Isaac."

rsv@Genesis:21:11 @ And the thing was very displeasing to Abraham on account of his son.

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 named.

rsv@Genesis:21:14 @ So Abraham rose early in the morning, and took bread and a skin of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, along with the child, and sent her away. And she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beer-sheba.

rsv@Genesis:21:17 @ And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God called to Hagar from heaven, and said to her, "What troubles you, Hagar? Fear not; for God has heard the voice of the lad where he is.

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:21:32 @ So they made a covenant at Beer-sheba. Then Abim'elech and Phicol the commander of his army rose up and returned to the land of the Philistines.

rsv@Genesis:22:2 @ He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Mori'ah, and offer him there as a burnt offering upon one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

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 come again to you."

rsv@Genesis:22:6 @ And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it on Isaac his son; and he took in his hand the fire and the knife. So they went both of them together.

rsv@Genesis:22:7 @ And Isaac said to his father Abraham, "My father!" And he said, "Here am I, my son." He said, "Behold, the fire and the wood; but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?"

rsv@Genesis:22:8 @ Abraham said, "God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son." So they went both of them together.

rsv@Genesis:22:9 @ When they came 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:22:10 @ Then Abraham put forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.

rsv@Genesis:22:11 @ But the angel of the LORD called to him from heaven, and said, "Abraham, Abraham!" And he said, "Here am I."

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:22:13 @ And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him was a ram, caught in a thicket by his horns; and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son.

rsv@Genesis:22:14 @ So Abraham called the name 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 time from heaven,

rsv@Genesis:22:19 @ So Abraham returned to his young men, and they arose and went together to Beer-sheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beer-sheba.

rsv@Genesis:22:20 @ Now after these things it was told Abraham, "Behold, Milcah also has borne children to your brother Nahor:

rsv@Genesis:23:2 @ And Sarah died at Kir'iath-ar'ba (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan; and Abraham went in to mourn for Sarah and to weep for her.

rsv@Genesis:23:3 @ And Abraham rose up from before his dead, and said to the Hittites,

rsv@Genesis:23:7 @ Abraham rose and bowed to the Hittites, the people of the land.

rsv@Genesis:23:8 @ And he said to them, "If you are willing that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hear me, and entreat for me Ephron the son of Zohar,

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 named in the hearing of the Hittites, four hundred shekels of silver, according to the weights current among the merchants.

rsv@Genesis:23:17 @ So the field of Ephron in Mach-pe'lah, which was to the east of Mamre, the field with the cave which was in it and all the trees that were in the field, throughout its whole area, was made over

rsv@Genesis:23:18 @ to Abraham as a possession in the presence of the Hittites, before all who went in at the gate of his city.

rsv@Genesis:23:20 @ The field and the cave that is in it were made over to Abraham as a possession for a burying place by the Hittites.

rsv@Genesis:24:2 @ And Abraham said to his servant, the oldest of his house, who had charge of all that he had, "Put your hand under my thigh,

rsv@Genesis:26:3 @ Sojourn in this land, and I will be with you, and will bless you; for to you and to your descendants I will give all these lands, and I will fulfil the oath which I swore to Abraham your father.

rsv@Genesis:26:4 @ I will multiply your descendants as the stars of heaven, and will give to your descendants all these lands; and by your descendants all the nations of the earth shall bless themselves:

rsv@Genesis:26:7 @ When the men of the place asked him about his wife, he said, "She is my sister"; for he feared to say, "My wife," thinking, "lest the men of the place should kill me for the sake of Rebekah"; because she was fair to look upon.

rsv@Genesis:26:9 @ So Abim'elech called Isaac, and said, "Behold, she is your wife; how then could you say, `She is my sister'?" Isaac said to him, "Because I thought, `Lest I die because of her.'"

rsv@Genesis:26:10 @ Abim'elech said, "What is this you have done to us? One of the people might easily have lain with your wife, and you would have brought guilt upon us."

rsv@Genesis:26:11 @ So Abim'elech warned all the people, saying, "Whoever touches this man or his wife shall be put to death."

rsv@Genesis:26:15 @ (Now the Philistines had stopped and filled with earth all the wells which his father's servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father.)

rsv@Genesis:26:16 @ And Abim'elech said to Isaac, "Go away from us; for you are much mightier than we."

rsv@Genesis:26:18 @ And Isaac dug again the wells of water which had been dug in the days of Abraham his father; for the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham; and he gave them the names which his father had given them.

rsv@Genesis:26:23 @ From there he went up to Beer-sheba.

rsv@Genesis:26:24 @ And the LORD appeared to him the same night and said, "I am the God of Abraham your father; fear not, for I am with you and will bless you and multiply your descendants for my servant Abraham's sake."

rsv@Genesis:26:26 @ Then Abim'elech went to him from Gerar with Ahuz'zath his adviser and Phicol the commander of his army.

rsv@Genesis:26:27 @ Isaac said to them, "Why have you come to me, seeing that you hate me and have sent me away from you?"

rsv@Genesis:26:29 @ that you will do us no harm, just as we have not touched you and have done to you nothing but good and have sent you away in peace. You are now the blessed of the LORD."

rsv@Genesis:26:31 @ In the morning they rose early and took oath with one another; and Isaac set them on their way, and they departed from him in peace.

rsv@Genesis:26:32 @ That same day Isaac's servants came and told him about the well which they had dug, and said to him, "We have found water."

rsv@Genesis:26:33 @ He called it Shibah; therefore the name of the city is Beer-sheba to this day.

rsv@Genesis:26:34 @ When Esau was forty years old, he took to wife Judith the daughter of Be-e'ri the Hittite, and Bas'emath the daughter of Elon the Hittite;

rsv@Genesis:27:1 @ When Isaac was old and his eyes were dim so that he could not see, he called Esau his older son, and said to him, "My son"; and he answered, "Here I am."

rsv@Genesis:27:3 @ Now then, take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field, and hunt game for me,

rsv@Genesis:27:4 @ and prepare for me savory food, such as I love, and bring it to me that I may eat; that I may bless you before I die."

rsv@Genesis:27:5 @ Now Rebekah was listening when Isaac spoke to his son Esau. So when Esau went to the field to hunt for game and bring it,

rsv@Genesis:27:6 @ Rebekah said to her son Jacob, "I heard your father speak to your brother Esau,

rsv@Genesis:27:9 @ Go to the flock, and fetch me two good kids, that I may prepare from them savory food for your father, such as he loves;

rsv@Genesis:27:10 @ and you shall bring it to your father to eat, so that he may bless you before he dies."

rsv@Genesis:27:11 @ But Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, "Behold, my brother Esau is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man.

rsv@Genesis:27:12 @ Perhaps my father will feel me, and I shall seem to be mocking him, and bring a curse upon myself and not a blessing."

rsv@Genesis:27:13 @ His mother said to him, "Upon me be your curse, my son; only obey my word, and go, fetch them to me."

rsv@Genesis:27:14 @ So he went and took them and brought them to his mother; and his mother prepared savory food, such as his father loved.

rsv@Genesis:27:15 @ Then Rebekah took the best garments of Esau her older son, which were with her in the house, and put them on Jacob her younger son;

rsv@Genesis:27:17 @ and she gave the savory food and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.

rsv@Genesis:27:18 @ So he went in to his father, and said, "My father"; and he said, "Here I am; who are you, my son?"

rsv@Genesis:27:19 @ Jacob said to his father, "I am Esau your first-born. I have done as you told me; now sit up and eat of my game, that you may bless me."

rsv@Genesis:27:20 @ But Isaac said to his son, "How is it that you have found it so quickly, my son?" He answered, "Because the LORD your God granted me success."

rsv@Genesis:27:21 @ Then Isaac said to Jacob, "Come near, that I may feel you, my son, to know whether you are really my son Esau or not."

rsv@Genesis:27:22 @ So Jacob went near to Isaac his father, who felt him and said, "The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau."

rsv@Genesis:27:25 @ Then he said, "Bring it to me, that I may eat of my son's game and bless you." So he brought it to him, and he ate; and he brought him wine, and he drank.

rsv@Genesis:27:26 @ Then his father Isaac said to him, "Come near and kiss me, my son."

rsv@Genesis:27:29 @ Let peoples serve you, and nations bow down to you. Be lord over your brothers, and may your mother's sons bow down to you. Cursed be every one who curses you, and blessed be every one who blesses you!"

rsv@Genesis:27:31 @ He also prepared savory food, and brought it to his father. And he said to his father, "Let my father arise, and eat of his son's game, that you may bless me."

rsv@Genesis:27:32 @ His father Isaac said to him, "Who are you?" He answered, "I am your son, your first-born, Esau."

rsv@Genesis:27:33 @ Then Isaac trembled violently, and said, "Who was it then that hunted game and brought it to me, and I ate it all before you came, and I have blessed him?--yes, and he shall be blessed."

rsv@Genesis:27:34 @ When Esau heard the words of his father, he cried out with an exceedingly great and bitter cry, and said to his father, "Bless me, even me also, O my father!"

rsv@Genesis:27:36 @ Esau said, "Is he not rightly named Jacob? For he has supplanted me these two times. He took away my birthright; and behold, now he has taken away my blessing." Then he said, "Have you not reserved a blessing for me?"

rsv@Genesis:27:37 @ Isaac answered Esau, "Behold, I have made him your lord, and all his brothers I have given to him for servants, and with grain and wine I have sustained him. What then can I do for you, my son?"

rsv@Genesis:27:38 @ Esau said to his father, "Have you but one blessing, my father? Bless me, even me also, O my father." And Esau lifted up his voice and wept.

rsv@Genesis:27:41 @ Now Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father had blessed him, and Esau said to himself, "The days of mourning for my father are approaching; then I will kill my brother Jacob."

rsv@Genesis:27:42 @ But the words of Esau her older son were told to Rebekah; so she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said to him, "Behold, your brother Esau comforts himself by planning to kill you.

rsv@Genesis:27:43 @ Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; arise, flee to Laban my brother in Haran,

rsv@Genesis:27:45 @ until your brother's anger turns away, and he forgets what you have done to him; then I will send, and fetch you from there. Why should I be bereft of you both in one day?"

rsv@Genesis:27:46 @ Then Rebekah said to Isaac, "I am weary of my life because of the Hittite women. If Jacob marries one of the Hittite women such as these, one of the women of the land, what good will my life be to me?"

rsv@Genesis:28:2 @ Arise, go to Paddan-aram to the house of Bethu'el your mother's father; and take as wife from there one of the daughters of Laban your mother's brother.

rsv@Genesis:28:4 @ May he give the blessing of Abraham to you and to your descendants with you, that you may take possession of the land of your sojournings which God gave to Abraham!"

rsv@Genesis:28:5 @ Thus Isaac sent Jacob away; and he went to Paddan-aram to Laban, the son of Bethu'el the Aramean, the brother of Rebekah, Jacob's and Esau's mother.

rsv@Genesis:28:6 @ Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan-aram to take a wife from there, and that as he blessed him he charged him, "You shall not marry one of the Canaanite women,"

rsv@Genesis:28:7 @ and that Jacob had obeyed his father and his mother and gone to Paddan-aram.

rsv@Genesis:28:9 @ Esau went to Ish'mael and took to wife, besides the wives he had, Ma'halath the daughter of Ish'mael Abraham's son, the sister of Neba'ioth.

rsv@Genesis:28:10 @ Jacob left Beer-sheba, and went toward Haran.

rsv@Genesis:28:11 @ And he came to a certain place, and stayed there that night, because the sun had set. Taking one of the stones of the place, he put it under his head and lay down in that place to sleep.

rsv@Genesis:28:12 @ And he dreamed that there was a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven; and behold, the angels of God were ascending and descending on it!

rsv@Genesis:28:13 @ And behold, the LORD stood above it and said, "I am the LORD, the God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie I will give to you and to your descendants;

rsv@Genesis:28:14 @ and your descendants shall be like the dust of the earth, and you shall spread abroad to the west and to the east and to the north and to the south; and by you and your descendants shall all the families of the earth bless themselves.

rsv@Genesis:28:15 @ Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done that of which I have spoken to you."

rsv@Genesis:28:18 @ So Jacob rose early in the morning, and he took the stone which he had put under his head and set it up for a pillar and poured oil on the top of it.

rsv@Genesis:28:20 @ Then Jacob made a vow, saying, "If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat and clothing to wear,

rsv@Genesis:28:21 @ so that I come again to my father's house in peace, then the LORD shall be my God,

rsv@Genesis:28:22 @ and this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, shall be God's house; and of all that thou givest me I will give the tenth to thee."

rsv@Genesis:29:1 @ Then Jacob went on his journey, and came to the land of the people of the east.

rsv@Genesis:29:2 @ As he looked, he saw a well in the field, and lo, three flocks of sheep lying beside it; for out of that well the flocks were watered. The stone on the well's mouth was large,

rsv@Genesis:29:3 @ and when all the flocks were gathered there, the shepherds would roll the stone from the mouth of the well, and water the sheep, and put the stone back in its place upon the mouth of the well.

rsv@Genesis:29:4 @ Jacob said to them, "My brothers, where do you come from?" They said, "We are from Haran."

rsv@Genesis:29:5 @ He said to them, "Do you know Laban the son of Nahor?" They said, "We know him."

rsv@Genesis:29:6 @ He said to them, "Is it well with him?" They said, "It is well; and see, Rachel his daughter is coming with the sheep!"

rsv@Genesis:29:7 @ He said, "Behold, it is still high day, it is not time for the animals to be gathered together; water the sheep, and go, pasture them."

rsv@Genesis:29:8 @ But they said, "We cannot until all the flocks are gathered together, and the stone is rolled from the mouth of the well; then we water the sheep."

rsv@Genesis:29:10 @ Now when Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban his mother's brother, and the sheep of Laban his mother's brother, Jacob went up and rolled the stone from the well's mouth, and watered the flock of Laban his mother's brother.

rsv@Genesis:29:12 @ And Jacob told Rachel that he was her father's kinsman, and that he was Rebekah's son; and she ran and told her father.

rsv@Genesis:29:13 @ When Laban heard the tidings of Jacob his sister's son, he ran to meet him, and embraced him and kissed him, and brought him to his house. Jacob told Laban all these things,

rsv@Genesis:29:14 @ and Laban said to him, "Surely you are my bone and my flesh!" And he stayed with him a month.

rsv@Genesis:29:15 @ Then Laban said to Jacob, "Because you are my kinsman, should you therefore serve me for nothing? Tell me, what shall your wages be?"

rsv@Genesis:29:19 @ Laban said, "It is better that I give her to you than that I should give her to any other man; stay with me."

rsv@Genesis:29:20 @ So Jacob served seven years for Rachel, and they seemed to him but a few days because of the love he had for her.

rsv@Genesis:29:21 @ Then Jacob said to Laban, "Give me my wife that I may go in to her, for my time is completed."

rsv@Genesis:29:22 @ So Laban gathered together all the men of the place, and made a feast.

rsv@Genesis:29:23 @ But in the evening he took his daughter Leah and brought her to Jacob; and he went in to her.

rsv@Genesis:29:24 @ (Laban gave his maid Zilpah to his daughter Leah to be her maid.)

rsv@Genesis:29:25 @ And in the morning, behold, it was Leah; and Jacob said to Laban, "What is this you have done to me? Did I not serve with you for Rachel? Why then have you deceived me?"

rsv@Genesis:29:26 @ Laban said, "It is not so done in our country, to give the younger before the first-born.

rsv@Genesis:29:28 @ Jacob did so, and completed her week; then Laban gave him his daughter Rachel to wife.

rsv@Genesis:29:29 @ (Laban gave his maid Bilhah to his daughter Rachel to be her maid.)

rsv@Genesis:29:30 @ So Jacob went in to Rachel also, and he loved Rachel more than Leah, and served Laban for another seven years.

rsv@Genesis:29:34 @ Again she conceived and bore a son, and said, "Now this time my husband will be joined to me, because I have borne him three sons"; therefore his name was called Levi.

rsv@Genesis:30:1 @ When Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, she envied her sister; and she said to Jacob, "Give me children, or I shall die!"

rsv@Genesis:30:3 @ Then she said, "Here is my maid Bilhah; go in to her, that she may bear upon my knees, and even I may have children through her."

rsv@Genesis:30:4 @ So she gave him her maid Bilhah as a wife; and Jacob went in to her.

rsv@Genesis:30:9 @ When Leah saw that she had ceased bearing children, she took her maid Zilpah and gave her to Jacob as a wife.

rsv@Genesis:30:14 @ In the days of wheat harvest Reuben went and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, "Give me, I pray, some of your son's mandrakes."

rsv@Genesis:30:15 @ But she said to her, "Is it a small matter that you have taken away my husband? Would you take away my son's mandrakes also?" Rachel said, "Then he may lie with you tonight for your son's mandrakes."

rsv@Genesis:30:16 @ When Jacob came from the field in the evening, Leah went out to meet him, and said, "You must come in to me; for I have hired you with my son's mandrakes." So he lay with her that night.

rsv@Genesis:30:17 @ And God hearkened to Leah, and she conceived and bore Jacob a fifth son.

rsv@Genesis:30:18 @ Leah said, "God has given me my hire because I gave my maid to my husband"; so she called his name Is'sachar.

rsv@Genesis:30:22 @ Then God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her and opened her womb.

rsv@Genesis:30:24 @ and she called his name Joseph, saying, "May the LORD add to me another son!"

rsv@Genesis:30:25 @ When Rachel had borne Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, "Send me away, that I may go to my own home and country.

rsv@Genesis:30:27 @ But Laban said to him, "If you will allow me to say so, I have learned by divination that the LORD has blessed me because of you;

rsv@Genesis:30:29 @ Jacob said to him, "You yourself know how I have served you, and how your cattle have fared with me.

rsv@Genesis:30:32 @ let me pass through all your flock today, removing from it every speckled and spotted sheep and every black lamb, and the spotted and speckled among the goats; and such shall be my wages.

rsv@Genesis:30:33 @ So my honesty will answer for me later, when you come to look into my wages with you. Every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats and black among the lambs, if found with me, shall be counted stolen."

rsv@Genesis:30:37 @ Then Jacob took fresh rods of poplar and almond and plane, and peeled white streaks in them, exposing the white of the rods.

rsv@Genesis:30:38 @ He set the rods which he had peeled in front of the flocks in the runnels, that is, the watering troughs, where the flocks came to drink. And since they bred when they came to drink,

rsv@Genesis:30:40 @ And Jacob separated the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the striped and all the black in the flock of Laban; and he put his own droves apart, and did not put them with Laban's flock.

rsv@Genesis:31:3 @ Then the LORD said to Jacob, "Return to the land of your fathers and to your kindred, and I will be with you."

rsv@Genesis:31:4 @ So Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah into the field where his flock was,

rsv@Genesis:31:5 @ and said to them, "I see that your father does not regard me with favor as he did before. But the God of my father has been with me.

rsv@Genesis:31:7 @ yet your father has cheated me and changed my wages ten times, but God did not permit him to harm me.

rsv@Genesis:31:9 @ Thus God has taken away the cattle of your father, and given them to me.

rsv@Genesis:31:11 @ Then the angel of God said to me in the dream, `Jacob,' and I said, `Here I am!'

rsv@Genesis:31:12 @ And he said, `Lift up your eyes and see, all the goats that leap upon the flock are striped, spotted, and mottled; for I have seen all that Laban is doing to you.

rsv@Genesis:31:13 @ I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed a pillar and made a vow to me. Now arise, go forth from this land, and return to the land of your birth.'"

rsv@Genesis:31:14 @ Then Rachel and Leah answered him, "Is there any portion or inheritance left to us in our father's house?

rsv@Genesis:31:16 @ All the property which God has taken away from our father belongs to us and to our children; now then, whatever God has said to you, do."

rsv@Genesis:31:18 @ and he drove away all his cattle, all his livestock which he had gained, the cattle in his possession which he had acquired in Paddan-aram, to go to the land of Canaan to his father Isaac.

rsv@Genesis:31:19 @ Laban had gone to shear his sheep, and Rachel stole her father's household gods.

rsv@Genesis:31:20 @ And Jacob outwitted Laban the Aramean, in that he did not tell him that he intended to flee.

rsv@Genesis:31:21 @ He fled with all that he had, and arose and crossed the Euphra'tes, and set his face toward the hill country of Gilead.

rsv@Genesis:31:22 @ When it was told Laban on the third day that Jacob had fled,

rsv@Genesis:31:23 @ he took his kinsmen with him and pursued him for seven days and followed close after him into the hill country of Gilead.

rsv@Genesis:31:24 @ But God came to Laban the Aramean in a dream by night, and said to him, "Take heed that you say not a word to Jacob, either good or bad."

rsv@Genesis:31:25 @ And Laban overtook Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the hill country, and Laban with his kinsmen encamped in the hill country of Gilead.

rsv@Genesis:31:26 @ And Laban said to Jacob, "What have you done, that you have cheated me, and carried away my daughters like captives of the sword?

rsv@Genesis:31:28 @ And why did you not permit me to kiss my sons and my daughters farewell? Now you have done foolishly.

rsv@Genesis:31:29 @ It is in my power to do you harm; but the God of your father spoke to me last night, saying, `Take heed that you speak to Jacob neither good nor bad.'

rsv@Genesis:31:32 @ Any one with whom you find your gods shall not live. In the presence of our kinsmen point out what I have that is yours, and take it." Now Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen them.

rsv@Genesis:31:33 @ So Laban went into Jacob's tent, and into Leah's tent, and into the tent of the two maidservants, but he did not find them. And he went out of Leah's tent, and entered Rachel's.

rsv@Genesis:31:35 @ And she said to her father, "Let not my lord be angry that I cannot rise before you, for the way of women is upon me." So he searched, but did not find the household gods.

rsv@Genesis:31:36 @ Then Jacob became angry, and upbraided Laban; Jacob said to Laban, "What is my offense? What is my sin, that you have hotly pursued me?

rsv@Genesis:31:39 @ That which was torn by wild beasts I did not bring to you; I bore the loss of it myself; of my hand you required it, whether stolen by day or stolen by night.

rsv@Genesis:31:43 @ Then Laban answered and said to Jacob, "The daughters are my daughters, the children are my children, the flocks are my flocks, and all that you see is mine. But what can I do this day to these my daughters, or to their children whom they have borne?

rsv@Genesis:31:45 @ So Jacob took a stone, and set it up as a pillar.

rsv@Genesis:31:46 @ And Jacob said to his kinsmen, "Gather stones," and they took stones, and made a heap; and they ate there by the heap.

rsv@Genesis:31:48 @ Laban said, "This heap is a witness between you and me today." Therefore he named it Galeed,

rsv@Genesis:31:51 @ Then Laban said to Jacob, "See this heap and the pillar, which I have set between you and me.

rsv@Genesis:31:52 @ This heap is a witness, and the pillar is a witness, that I will not pass over this heap to you, and you will not pass over this heap and this pillar to me, for harm.

rsv@Genesis:31:54 @ and Jacob offered a sacrifice on the mountain and called his kinsmen to eat bread; and they ate bread and tarried all night on the mountain.

rsv@Genesis:32:3 @ And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother in the land of Se'ir, the country of Edom,

rsv@Genesis:32:4 @ instructing them, "Thus you shall say to my lord Esau: Thus says your servant Jacob, `I have sojourned with Laban, and stayed until now;

rsv@Genesis:32:5 @ and I have oxen, asses, flocks, menservants, and maidservants; and I have sent to tell my lord, in order that I may find favor in your sight.'"

rsv@Genesis:32:6 @ And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, "We came to your brother Esau, and he is coming to meet you, and four hundred men with him."

rsv@Genesis:32:7 @ Then Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed; and he divided the people that were with him, and the flocks and herds and camels, into two companies,

rsv@Genesis:32:8 @ thinking, "If Esau comes to the one company and destroys it, then the company which is left will escape."

rsv@Genesis:32:9 @ And Jacob said, "O God of my father Abraham and God of my father Isaac, O LORD who didst say to me, `Return to your country and to your kindred, and I will do you good,'

rsv@Genesis:32:10 @ I am not worthy of the least of all the steadfast love and all the faithfulness which thou hast shown to thy servant, for with only my staff I crossed this Jordan; and now I have become two companies.

rsv@Genesis:32:13 @ So he lodged there that night, and took from what he had with him a present for his brother Esau,

rsv@Genesis:32:16 @ These he delivered into the hand of his servants, every drove by itself, and said to his servants, "Pass on before me, and put a space between drove and drove."

rsv@Genesis:32:17 @ He instructed the foremost, "When Esau my brother meets you, and asks you, `To whom do you belong? Where are you going? And whose are these before you?'

rsv@Genesis:32:18 @ then you shall say, `They belong to your servant Jacob; they are a present sent to my lord Esau; and moreover he is behind us.'"

rsv@Genesis:32:19 @ He likewise instructed the second and the third and all who followed the droves, "You shall say the same thing to Esau when you meet him,

rsv@Genesis:32:22 @ The same night he arose and took his two wives, his two maids, and his eleven children, and crossed the ford of the Jabbok.

rsv@Genesis:32:23 @ He took them and sent them across the stream, and likewise everything that he had.

rsv@Genesis:32:25 @ When the man saw that he did not prevail against Jacob, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and Jacob's thigh was put out of joint as he wrestled with him.

rsv@Genesis:32:27 @ And he said to him, "What is your name?" And he said, "Jacob."

rsv@Genesis:32:30 @ So Jacob called the name of the place Peni'el, saying, "For I have seen God face to face, and yet my life is preserved."

rsv@Genesis:32:32 @ Therefore to this day the Israelites do not eat the sinew of the hip which is upon the hollow of the thigh, because he touched the hollow of Jacob's thigh on the sinew of the hip.

rsv@Genesis:33:3 @ He himself went on before them, bowing himself to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother.

rsv@Genesis:33:4 @ But Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck and kissed him, and they wept.

rsv@Genesis:33:8 @ Esau said, "What do you mean by all this company which I met?" Jacob answered, "To find favor in the sight of my lord."

rsv@Genesis:33:10 @ Jacob said, "No, I pray you, if I have found favor in your sight, then accept my present from my hand; for truly to see your face is like seeing the face of God, with such favor have you received me.

rsv@Genesis:33:11 @ Accept, I pray you, my gift that is brought to you, because God has dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough." Thus he urged him, and he took it.

rsv@Genesis:33:13 @ But Jacob said to him, "My lord knows that the children are frail, and that the flocks and herds giving suck are a care to me; and if they are overdriven for one day, all the flocks will die.

rsv@Genesis:33:14 @ Let my lord pass on before his servant, and I will lead on slowly, according to the pace of the cattle which are before me and according to the pace of the children, until I come to my lord in Se'ir."

rsv@Genesis:33:16 @ So Esau returned that day on his way to Se'ir.

rsv@Genesis:33:17 @ But Jacob journeyed to Succoth, and built himself a house, and made booths for his cattle; therefore the name of the place is called Succoth.

rsv@Genesis:33:18 @ And Jacob came safely to the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, on his way from Paddan-aram; and he camped before the city.

rsv@Genesis:34:1 @ Now Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob, went out to visit the women of the land;

rsv@Genesis:34:3 @ And his soul was drawn to Dinah the daughter of Jacob; he loved the maiden and spoke tenderly to her.

rsv@Genesis:34:4 @ So Shechem spoke to his father Hamor, saying, "Get me this maiden for my wife."

rsv@Genesis:34:6 @ And Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him.

rsv@Genesis:34:7 @ The sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard of it; and the men were indignant and very angry, because he had wrought folly in Israel by lying with Jacob's daughter, for such a thing ought not to be done.

rsv@Genesis:34:8 @ But Hamor spoke with them, saying, "The soul of my son Shechem longs for your daughter; I pray you, give her to him in marriage.

rsv@Genesis:34:9 @ Make marriages with us; give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves.

rsv@Genesis:34:10 @ You shall dwell with us; and the land shall be open to you; dwell and trade in it, and get property in it."

rsv@Genesis:34:11 @ Shechem also said to her father and to her brothers, "Let me find favor in your eyes, and whatever you say to me I will give.

rsv@Genesis:34:12 @ Ask of me ever so much as marriage present and gift, and I will give according as you say to me; only give me the maiden to be my wife."

rsv@Genesis:34:14 @ They said to them, "We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one who is uncircumcised, for that would be a disgrace to us.

rsv@Genesis:34:15 @ Only on this condition will we consent to you: that you will become as we are and every male of you be circumcised.

rsv@Genesis:34:16 @ Then we will give our daughters to you, and we will take your daughters to ourselves, and we will dwell with you and become one people.

rsv@Genesis:34:17 @ But if you will not listen to us and be circumcised, then we will take our daughter, and we will be gone."

rsv@Genesis:34:19 @ And the young man did not delay to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter. Now he was the most honored of all his family.

rsv@Genesis:34:20 @ So Hamor and his son Shechem came to the gate of their city and spoke to the men of their city, saying,

rsv@Genesis:34:22 @ Only on this condition will the men agree to dwell with us, to become one people: that every male among us be circumcised as they are circumcised.

rsv@Genesis:34:24 @ And all who went out of the gate of his city hearkened to Hamor and his son Shechem; and every male was circumcised, all who went out of the gate of his city.

rsv@Genesis:34:25 @ On the third day, when they were sore, two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, took their swords and came upon the city unawares, and killed all the males.

rsv@Genesis:34:26 @ They slew Hamor and his son Shechem with the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem's house, and went away.

rsv@Genesis:34:28 @ they took their flocks and their herds, their asses, and whatever was in the city and in the field;

rsv@Genesis:34:30 @ Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, "You have brought trouble on me by making me odious to the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites and the Per'izzites; my numbers are few, and if they gather themselves against me and attack me, I shall be destroyed, both I and my household."

rsv@Genesis:35:1 @ God said to Jacob, "Arise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there; and make there an altar to the God who appeared to you when you fled from your brother Esau."

rsv@Genesis:35:2 @ So Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him, "Put away the foreign gods that are among you, and purify yourselves, and change your garments;

rsv@Genesis:35:3 @ then let us arise and go up to Bethel, that I may make there an altar to the God who answered me in the day of my distress and has been with me wherever I have gone."

rsv@Genesis:35:4 @ So they gave to Jacob all the foreign gods that they had, and the rings that were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was near Shechem.

rsv@Genesis:35:6 @ And Jacob came to Luz (that is, Bethel), which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him,

rsv@Genesis:35:7 @ and there he built an altar, and called the place El-bethel, because there God had revealed himself to him when he fled from his brother.

rsv@Genesis:35:9 @ God appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Paddan-aram, and blessed him.

rsv@Genesis:35:10 @ And God said to him, "Your name is Jacob; no longer shall your name be called Jacob, but Israel shall be your name." So his name was called Israel.

rsv@Genesis:35:11 @ And God said to him, "I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall come from you, and kings shall spring from you.

rsv@Genesis:35:12 @ The land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac I will give to you, and I will give the land to your descendants after you."

rsv@Genesis:35:14 @ And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where he had spoken with him, a pillar of stone; and he poured out a drink offering on it, and poured oil on it.

rsv@Genesis:35:17 @ And when she was in her hard labor, the midwife said to her, "Fear not; for now you will have another son."

rsv@Genesis:35:19 @ So Rachel died, and she was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem),

rsv@Genesis:36:6 @ Then Esau took his wives, his sons, his daughters, and all the members of his household, his cattle, all his beasts, and all his property which he had acquired in the land of Canaan; and he went into a land away from his brother Jacob.

rsv@Genesis:37:2 @ This is the history of the family of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was shepherding the flock with his brothers; he was a lad with the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father's wives; and Joseph brought an ill report of them to their father.

rsv@Genesis:37:4 @ But when his brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, they hated him, and could not speak peaceably to him.

rsv@Genesis:37:5 @ Now Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers they only hated him the more.

rsv@Genesis:37:6 @ He said to them, "Hear this dream which I have dreamed:

rsv@Genesis:37:7 @ behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and lo, my sheaf arose and stood upright; and behold, your sheaves gathered round it, and bowed down to my sheaf."

rsv@Genesis:37:8 @ His brothers said to him, "Are you indeed to reign over us? Or are you indeed to have dominion over us?" So they hated him yet more for his dreams and for his words.

rsv@Genesis:37:9 @ Then he dreamed another dream, and told it to his brothers, and said, "Behold, I have dreamed another dream; and behold, the sun, the moon, and eleven stars were bowing down to me."

rsv@Genesis:37:10 @ But when he told it to his father and to his brothers, his father rebuked him, and said to him, "What is this dream that you have dreamed? Shall I and your mother and your brothers indeed come to bow ourselves to the ground before you?"

rsv@Genesis:37:12 @ Now his brothers went to pasture their father's flock near Shechem.

rsv@Genesis:37:13 @ And Israel said to Joseph, "Are not your brothers pasturing the flock at Shechem? Come, I will send you to them." And he said to him, "Here I am."

rsv@Genesis:37:14 @ So he said to him, "Go now, see if it is well with your brothers, and with the flock; and bring me word again." So he sent him from the valley of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.

rsv@Genesis:37:17 @ And the man said, "They have gone away, for I heard them say, `Let us go to Dothan.'" So Joseph went after his brothers, and found them at Dothan.

rsv@Genesis:37:18 @ They saw him afar off, and before he came near to them they conspired against him to kill him.

rsv@Genesis:37:19 @ They said to one another, "Here comes this dreamer.

rsv@Genesis:37:20 @ Come now, let us kill him and throw him into one of the pits; then we shall say that a wild beast has devoured him, and we shall see what will become of his dreams."

rsv@Genesis:37:22 @ And Reuben said to them, "Shed no blood; cast him into this pit here in the wilderness, but lay no hand upon him"--that he might rescue him out of their hand, to restore him to his father.

rsv@Genesis:37:23 @ So when Joseph came to his brothers, they stripped him of his robe, the long robe with sleeves that he wore;

rsv@Genesis:37:24 @ and they took him and cast him into a pit. The pit was empty, there was no water in it.

rsv@Genesis:37:25 @ Then they sat down to eat; and looking up they saw a caravan of Ish'maelites coming from Gilead, with their camels bearing gum, balm, and myrrh, on their way to carry it down to Egypt.

rsv@Genesis:37:26 @ Then Judah said to his brothers, "What profit is it if we slay our brother and conceal his blood?

rsv@Genesis:37:27 @ Come, let us sell him to the Ish'maelites, and let not our hand be upon him, for he is our brother, our own flesh." And his brothers heeded him.

rsv@Genesis:37:28 @ Then Mid'ianite traders passed by; and they drew Joseph up and lifted him out of the pit, and sold him to the Ish'maelites for twenty shekels of silver; and they took Joseph to Egypt.

rsv@Genesis:37:29 @ When Reuben returned to the pit and saw that Joseph was not in the pit, he rent his clothes

rsv@Genesis:37:30 @ and returned to his brothers, and said, "The lad is gone; and I, where shall I go?"

rsv@Genesis:37:31 @ Then they took Joseph's robe, and killed a goat, and dipped the robe in the blood;

rsv@Genesis:37:32 @ and they sent the long robe with sleeves and brought it to their father, and said, "This we have found; see now whether it is your son's robe or not."

rsv@Genesis:37:33 @ And he recognized it, and said, "It is my son's robe; a wild beast has devoured him; Joseph is without doubt torn to pieces."

rsv@Genesis:37:35 @ All his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him; but he refused to be comforted, and said, "No, I shall go down to Sheol to my son, mourning." Thus his father wept for him.

rsv@Genesis:37:36 @ Meanwhile the Mid'ianites had sold him in Egypt to Pot'i-phar, an officer of Pharaoh, the captain of the guard.

rsv@Genesis:38:1 @ It happened at that time that Judah went down from his brothers, and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.

rsv@Genesis:38:2 @ There Judah saw the daughter of a certain Canaanite whose name was Shua; he married her and went in to her,

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

rsv@Genesis:38:8 @ Then Judah said to Onan, "Go in to your brother's wife, and perform the duty of a brother-in-law to her, and raise up offspring for your brother."

rsv@Genesis:38:9 @ But Onan knew that the offspring would not be his; so when he went in to his brother's wife he spilled the semen on the ground, lest he should give offspring to his brother.

rsv@Genesis:38:11 @ Then Judah said to Tamar his daughter-in-law, "Remain a widow in your father's house, till Shelah my son grows up"--for he feared that he would die, like his brothers. So Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house.

rsv@Genesis:38:12 @ In course of time the wife of Judah, Shua's daughter, died; and when Judah was comforted, he went up to Timnah to his sheepshearers, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.

rsv@Genesis:38:13 @ And when Tamar was told, "Your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep,"

rsv@Genesis:38:14 @ she put off her widow's garments, and put on a veil, wrapping herself up, and sat at the entrance to Enaim, which is on the road to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she had not been given to him in marriage.

rsv@Genesis:38:15 @ When Judah saw her, he thought her to be a harlot, for she had covered her face.

rsv@Genesis:38:16 @ He went over to her at the road side, and said, "Come, let me come in to you," for he did not know that she was his daughter-in-law. She said, "What will you give me, that you may come in to me?"

rsv@Genesis:38:18 @ He said, "What pledge shall I give you?" She replied, "Your signet and your cord, and your staff that is in your hand." So he gave them to her, and went in to her, and she conceived by him.

rsv@Genesis:38:20 @ When Judah sent the kid by his friend the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the woman's hand, he could not find her.

rsv@Genesis:38:22 @ So he returned to Judah, and said, "I have not found her; and also the men of the place said, `No harlot has been here.'"

rsv@Genesis:38:24 @ About three months later Judah was told, "Tamar your daughter-in-law has played the harlot; and moreover she is with child by harlotry." And Judah said, "Bring her out, and let her be burned."

rsv@Genesis:38:25 @ As she was being brought out, she sent word to her father-in-law, "By the man to whom these belong, I am with child." And she said, "Mark, I pray you, whose these are, the signet and the cord and the staff."

rsv@Genesis:38:26 @ Then Judah acknowledged them and said, "She is more righteous than I, inasmuch as I did not give her to my son Shelah." And he did not lie with her again.

rsv@Genesis:38:28 @ And when she was in labor, one put out a hand; and the midwife took and bound on his hand a scarlet thread, saying, "This came out first."

rsv@Genesis:39:1 @ Now Joseph was taken down to Egypt, and Pot'i-phar, an officer of Pharaoh, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the Ish'maelites who had brought him down there.

rsv@Genesis:39:3 @ and his master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD caused all that he did to prosper in his hands.

rsv@Genesis:39:8 @ But he refused and said to his master's wife, "Lo, having me my master has no concern about anything in the house, and he has put everything that he has in my hand;

rsv@Genesis:39:10 @ And although she spoke to Joseph day after day, he would not listen to her, to lie with her or to be with her.

rsv@Genesis:39:11 @ But one day, when he went into the house to do his work and none of the men of the house was there in the house,

rsv@Genesis:39:14 @ she called to the men of her household and said to them, "See, he has brought among us a Hebrew to insult us; he came in to me to lie with me, and I cried out with a loud voice;

rsv@Genesis:39:17 @ and she told him the same story, saying, "The Hebrew servant, whom you have brought among us, came in to me to insult me;

rsv@Genesis:39:19 @ When his master heard the words which his wife spoke to him, "This is the way your servant treated me," his anger was kindled.

rsv@Genesis:39:20 @ And Joseph's master took him and put him into the prison, the place where the king's prisoners were confined, and he was there in prison.

rsv@Genesis:39:22 @ And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's care all the prisoners who were in the prison; and whatever was done there, he was the doer of it;

rsv@Genesis:39:23 @ the keeper of the prison paid no heed to anything that was in Joseph's care, because the LORD was with him; and whatever he did, the LORD made it prosper.

rsv@Genesis:40:3 @ and he put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, in the prison where Joseph was confined.

rsv@Genesis:40:4 @ The captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he waited on them; and they continued for some time in custody.

rsv@Genesis:40:6 @ When Joseph came to them in the morning and saw them, they were troubled.

rsv@Genesis:40:7 @ So he asked Pharaoh's officers who were with him in custody in his master's house, "Why are your faces downcast today?"

rsv@Genesis:40:8 @ They said to him, "We have had dreams, and there is no one to interpret them." And Joseph said to them, "Do not interpretations belong to God? Tell them to me, I pray you."

rsv@Genesis:40:9 @ So the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, "In my dream there was a vine before me,

rsv@Genesis:40:10 @ and on the vine there were three branches; as soon as it budded, its blossoms shot forth, and the clusters ripened into grapes.

rsv@Genesis:40:11 @ Pharaoh's cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand."

rsv@Genesis:40:12 @ Then Joseph said to him, "This is its interpretation: the three branches are three days;

rsv@Genesis:40:13 @ within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore you to your office; and you shall place Pharaoh's cup in his hand as formerly, when you were his butler.

rsv@Genesis:40:14 @ But remember me, when it is well with you, and do me the kindness, I pray you, to make mention of me to Pharaoh, and so get me out of this house.

rsv@Genesis:40:15 @ For I was indeed stolen out of the land of the Hebrews; and here also I have done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon."

rsv@Genesis:40:16 @ When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was favorable, he said to Joseph, "I also had a dream: there were three cake baskets on my head,

rsv@Genesis:40:21 @ He restored the chief butler to his butlership, and he placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand;

rsv@Genesis:40:22 @ but he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them.

rsv@Genesis:41:3 @ And behold, seven other cows, gaunt and thin, came up out of the Nile after them, and stood by the other cows on the bank of the Nile.

rsv@Genesis:41:8 @ So in the morning his spirit was troubled; and he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt and all its wise men; and Pharaoh told them his dream, but there was none who could interpret it to Pharaoh.

rsv@Genesis:41:9 @ Then the chief butler said to Pharaoh, "I remember my faults today.

rsv@Genesis:41:10 @ When Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and put me and the chief baker in custody in the house of the captain of the guard,

rsv@Genesis:41:12 @ A young Hebrew was there with us, a servant of the captain of the guard; and when we told him, he interpreted our dreams to us, giving an interpretation to each man according to his dream.

rsv@Genesis:41:13 @ And as he interpreted to us, so it came to pass; I was restored to my office, and the baker was hanged."

rsv@Genesis:41:15 @ And Pharaoh said to Joseph, "I have had a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it; and I have heard it said of you that when you hear a dream you can interpret it."

rsv@Genesis:41:17 @ Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Behold, in my dream I was standing on the banks of the Nile;

rsv@Genesis:41:24 @ and the thin ears swallowed up the seven good ears. And I told it to the magicians, but there was no one who could explain it to me."

rsv@Genesis:41:25 @ Then Joseph said to Pharaoh, "The dream of Pharaoh is one; God has revealed to Pharaoh what he is about to do.

rsv@Genesis:41:28 @ It is as I told Pharaoh, God has shown to Pharaoh what he is about to do.

rsv@Genesis:41:32 @ And the doubling of Pharaoh's dream means that the thing is fixed by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.

rsv@Genesis:41:34 @ Let Pharaoh proceed to appoint overseers over the land, and take the fifth part of the produce of the land of Egypt during the seven plenteous years.

rsv@Genesis:41:36 @ That food shall be a reserve for the land against the seven years of famine which are to befall the land of Egypt, so that the land may not perish through the famine."

rsv@Genesis:41:37 @ This proposal seemed good to Pharaoh and to all his servants.

rsv@Genesis:41:38 @ And Pharaoh said to his servants, "Can we find such a man as this, in whom is the Spirit of God?"

rsv@Genesis:41:39 @ So Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Since God has shown you all this, there is none so discreet and wise as you are;

rsv@Genesis:41:41 @ And Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Behold, I have set you over all the land of Egypt."

rsv@Genesis:41:42 @ Then Pharaoh took his signet ring from his hand and put it on Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in garments of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck;

rsv@Genesis:41:43 @ and he made him to ride in his second chariot; and they cried before him, "Bow the knee!" Thus he set him over all the land of Egypt.

rsv@Genesis:41:44 @ Moreover Pharaoh said to Joseph, "I am Pharaoh, and without your consent no man shall lift up hand or foot in all the land of Egypt."

rsv@Genesis:41:48 @ and he gathered up all the food of the seven years when there was plenty in the land of Egypt, and stored up food in the cities; he stored up in every city the food from the fields around it.

rsv@Genesis:41:49 @ And Joseph stored up grain in great abundance, like the sand of the sea, until he ceased to measure it, for it could not be measured.

rsv@Genesis:41:50 @ Before the year of famine came, Joseph had two sons, whom As'enath, the daughter of Poti'phera priest of On, bore to him.

rsv@Genesis:41:53 @ The seven years of plenty that prevailed in the land of Egypt came to an end;

rsv@Genesis:41:54 @ and the seven years of famine began to come, as Joseph had said. There was famine in all lands; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.

rsv@Genesis:41:55 @ When all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread; and Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, "Go to Joseph; what he says to you, do."

rsv@Genesis:41:56 @ So when the famine had spread over all the land, Joseph opened all the storehouses, and sold to the Egyptians, for the famine was severe in the land of Egypt.

rsv@Genesis:41:57 @ Moreover, all the earth came to Egypt to Joseph to buy grain, because the famine was severe over all the earth.

rsv@Genesis:42:1 @ When Jacob learned that there was grain in Egypt, he said to his sons, "Why do you look at one another?"

rsv@Genesis:42:3 @ So ten of Joseph's brothers went down to buy grain in Egypt.

rsv@Genesis:42:5 @ Thus the sons of Israel came to buy among the others who came, for the famine was in the land of Canaan.

rsv@Genesis:42:6 @ Now Joseph was governor over the land; he it was who sold to all the people of the land. And Joseph's brothers came, and bowed themselves before him with their faces to the ground.

rsv@Genesis:42:7 @ Joseph saw his brothers, and knew them, but he treated them like strangers and spoke roughly to them. "Where do you come from?" he said. They said, "From the land of Canaan, to buy food."

rsv@Genesis:42:9 @ And Joseph remembered the dreams which he had dreamed of them; and he said to them, "You are spies, you have come to see the weakness of the land."

rsv@Genesis:42:10 @ They said to him, "No, my lord, but to buy food have your servants come.

rsv@Genesis:42:12 @ He said to them, "No, it is the weakness of the land that you have come to see."

rsv@Genesis:42:14 @ But Joseph said to them, "It is as I said to you, you are spies.

rsv@Genesis:42:17 @ And he put them all together in prison for three days.

rsv@Genesis:42:18 @ On the third day Joseph said to them, "Do this and you will live, for I fear God:

rsv@Genesis:42:20 @ and bring your youngest brother to me; so your words will be verified, and you shall not die." And they did so.

rsv@Genesis:42:21 @ Then they said to one another, "In truth we are guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the distress of his soul, when he besought us and we would not listen; therefore is this distress come upon us."

rsv@Genesis:42:22 @ And Reuben answered them, "Did I not tell you not to sin against the lad? But you would not listen. So now there comes a reckoning for his blood."

rsv@Genesis:42:23 @ They did not know that Joseph understood them, for there was an interpreter between them.

rsv@Genesis:42:24 @ Then he turned away from them and wept; and he returned to them and spoke to them. And he took Simeon from them and bound him before their eyes.

rsv@Genesis:42:25 @ And Joseph gave orders to fill their bags with grain, and to replace every man's money in his sack, and to give them provisions for the journey. This was done for them.

rsv@Genesis:42:27 @ And as one of them opened his sack to give his ass provender at the lodging place, he saw his money in the mouth of his sack;

rsv@Genesis:42:28 @ and he said to his brothers, "My money has been put back; here it is in the mouth of my sack!" At this their hearts failed them, and they turned trembling to one another, saying, "What is this that God has done to us?"

rsv@Genesis:42:29 @ When they came to Jacob their father in the land of Canaan, they told him all that had befallen them, saying,

rsv@Genesis:42:30 @ "The man, the lord of the land, spoke roughly to us, and took us to be spies of the land.

rsv@Genesis:42:36 @ And Jacob their father said to them, "You have bereaved me of my children: Joseph is no more, and Simeon is no more, and now you would take Benjamin; all this has come upon me."

rsv@Genesis:42:37 @ Then Reuben said to his father, "Slay my two sons if I do not bring him back to you; put him in my hands, and I will bring him back to you."

rsv@Genesis:43:7 @ They replied, "The man questioned us carefully about ourselves and our kindred, saying, `Is your father still alive? Have you another brother?' What we told him was in answer to these questions; could we in any way know that he would say, `Bring your brother down'?"

rsv@Genesis:43:8 @ And Judah said to Israel his father, "Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go, that we may live and not die, both we and you and also our little ones.

rsv@Genesis:43:9 @ I will be surety for him; of my hand you shall require him. If I do not bring him back to you and set him before you, then let me bear the blame for ever;

rsv@Genesis:43:15 @ So the men took the present, and they took double the money with them, and Benjamin; and they arose and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.

rsv@Genesis:43:16 @ When Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the steward of his house, "Bring the men into the house, and slaughter an animal and make ready, for the men are to dine with me at noon."

rsv@Genesis:43:17 @ The man did as Joseph bade him, and brought the men to Joseph's house.

rsv@Genesis:43:18 @ And the men were afraid because they were brought to Joseph's house, and they said, "It is because of the money, which was replaced in our sacks the first time, that we are brought in, so that he may seek occasion against us and fall upon us, to make slaves of us and seize our asses."

rsv@Genesis:43:19 @ So they went up to the steward of Joseph's house, and spoke with him at the door of the house,

rsv@Genesis:43:20 @ and said, "Oh, my lord, we came down the first time to buy food;

rsv@Genesis:43:21 @ and when we came to the lodging place we opened our sacks, and there was every man's money in the mouth of his sack, our money in full weight; so we have brought it again with us,

rsv@Genesis:43:23 @ He replied, "Rest assured, do not be afraid; your God and the God of your father must have put treasure in your sacks for you; I received your money." Then he brought Simeon out to them.

rsv@Genesis:43:26 @ When Joseph came home, they brought into the house to him the present which they had with them, and bowed down to him to the ground.

rsv@Genesis:43:29 @ And he lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, and said, "Is this your youngest brother, of whom you spoke to me? God be gracious to you, my son!"

rsv@Genesis:43:30 @ Then Joseph made haste, for his heart yearned for his brother, and he sought a place to weep. And he entered his chamber and wept there.

rsv@Genesis:43:32 @ They served him by himself, and them by themselves, and the Egyptians who ate with him by themselves, because the Egyptians might not eat bread with the Hebrews, for that is an abomination to the Egyptians.

rsv@Genesis:43:33 @ And they sat before him, the first-born according to his birthright and the youngest according to his youth; and the men looked at one another in amazement.

rsv@Genesis:43:34 @ Portions were taken to them from Joseph's table, but Benjamin's portion was five times as much as any of theirs. So they drank and were merry with him.

rsv@Genesis:44:2 @ and put my cup, the silver cup, in the mouth of the sack of the youngest, with his money for the grain." And he did as Joseph told him.

rsv@Genesis:44:4 @ When they had gone but a short distance from the city, Joseph said to his steward, "Up, follow after the men; and when you overtake them, say to them, `Why have you returned evil for good? Why have you stolen my silver cup?

rsv@Genesis:44:6 @ When he overtook them, he spoke to them these words.

rsv@Genesis:44:7 @ They said to him, "Why does my lord speak such words as these? Far be it from your servants that they should do such a thing!

rsv@Genesis:44:8 @ Behold, the money which we found in the mouth of our sacks, we brought back to you from the land of Canaan; how then should we steal silver or gold from your lord's house?

rsv@Genesis:44:11 @ Then every man quickly lowered his sack to the ground, and every man opened his sack.

rsv@Genesis:44:13 @ Then they rent their clothes, and every man loaded his ass, and they returned to the city.

rsv@Genesis:44:14 @ When Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house, he was still there; and they fell before him to the ground.

rsv@Genesis:44:17 @ But he said, "Far be it from me that I should do so! Only the man in whose hand the cup was found shall be my slave; but as for you, go up in peace to your father."

rsv@Genesis:44:18 @ Then Judah went up to him and said, "O my lord, let your servant, I pray you, speak a word in my lord's ears, and let not your anger burn against your servant; for you are like Pharaoh himself.

rsv@Genesis:44:20 @ And we said to my lord, `We have a father, an old man, and a young brother, the child of his old age; and his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother's children; and his father loves him.'

rsv@Genesis:44:21 @ Then you said to your servants, `Bring him down to me, that I may set my eyes upon him.'

rsv@Genesis:44:22 @ We said to my lord, `The lad cannot leave his father, for if he should leave his father, his father would die.'

rsv@Genesis:44:23 @ Then you said to your servants, `Unless your youngest brother comes down with you, you shall see my face no more.'

rsv@Genesis:44:24 @ When we went back to your servant my father we told him the words of my lord.

rsv@Genesis:44:27 @ Then your servant my father said to us, `You know that my wife bore me two sons;

rsv@Genesis:44:28 @ one left me, and I said, Surely he has been torn to pieces; and I have never seen him since.

rsv@Genesis:44:29 @ If you take this one also from me, and harm befalls him, you will bring down my gray hairs in sorrow to Sheol.'

rsv@Genesis:44:30 @ Now therefore, when I come to your servant my father, and the lad is not with us, then, as his life is bound up in the lad's life,

rsv@Genesis:44:31 @ when he sees that the lad is not with us, he will die; and your servants will bring down the gray hairs of your servant our father with sorrow to Sheol.

rsv@Genesis:44:32 @ For your servant became surety for the lad to my father, saying, `If I do not bring him back to you, then I shall bear the blame in the sight of my father all my life.'

rsv@Genesis:44:33 @ Now therefore, let your servant, I pray you, remain instead of the lad as a slave to my lord; and let the lad go back with his brothers.

rsv@Genesis:44:34 @ For how can I go back to my father if the lad is not with me? I fear to see the evil that would come upon my father."

rsv@Genesis:45:1 @ Then Joseph could not control himself before all those who stood by him; and he cried, "Make every one go out from me." So no one stayed with him when Joseph made himself known to his brothers.

rsv@Genesis:45:3 @ And Joseph said to his brothers, "I am Joseph; is my father still alive?" But his brothers could not answer him, for they were dismayed at his presence.

rsv@Genesis:45:4 @ So Joseph said to his brothers, "Come near to me, I pray you." And they came near. And he said, "I am your brother, Joseph, whom you sold into Egypt.

rsv@Genesis:45:5 @ And now do not be distressed, or angry with yourselves, because you sold me here; for God sent me before you to preserve life.

rsv@Genesis:45:7 @ And God sent me before you to preserve for you a remnant on earth, and to keep alive for you many survivors.

rsv@Genesis:45:8 @ So it was not you who sent me here, but God; and he has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house and ruler over all the land of Egypt.

rsv@Genesis:45:20 @ Give no thought to your goods, for the best of all the land of Egypt is yours.'"

rsv@Genesis:45:21 @ The sons of Israel did so; and Joseph gave them wagons, according to the command of Pharaoh, and gave them provisions for the journey.

rsv@Genesis:45:22 @ To each and all of them he gave festal garments; but to Benjamin he gave three hundred shekels of silver and five festal garments.

rsv@Genesis:45:23 @ To his father he sent as follows: ten asses loaded with the good things of Egypt, and ten she-asses loaded with grain, bread, and provision for his father on the journey.

rsv@Genesis:45:24 @ Then he sent his brothers away, and as they departed, he said to them, "Do not quarrel on the way."

rsv@Genesis:45:25 @ So they went up out of Egypt, and came to the land of Canaan to their father Jacob.

rsv@Genesis:45:26 @ And they told him, "Joseph is still alive, and he is ruler over all the land of Egypt." And his heart fainted, for he did not believe them.

rsv@Genesis:45:27 @ But when they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said to them, and when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of their father Jacob revived;

rsv@Genesis:46:1 @ So Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came to Beer-sheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.

rsv@Genesis:46:2 @ And God spoke to Israel in visions of the night, and said, "Jacob, Jacob." And he said, "Here am I."

rsv@Genesis:46:15 @ (these are the sons of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob in Paddan-aram, together with his daughter Dinah; altogether his sons and his daughters numbered thirty-three).

rsv@Genesis:46:18 @ (these are the sons of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to Leah his daughter; and these she bore to Jacob--sixteen persons).

rsv@Genesis:46:20 @ And to Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manas'seh and E'phraim, whom As'enath, the daughter of Poti'phera the priest of On, bore to him.

rsv@Genesis:46:22 @ (these are the sons of Rachel, who were born to Jacob--fourteen persons in all).

rsv@Genesis:46:25 @ (these are the sons of Bilhah, whom Laban gave to Rachel his daughter, and these she bore to Jacob--seven persons in all).

rsv@Genesis:46:26 @ All the persons belonging to Jacob who came into Egypt, who were his own offspring, not including Jacob's sons' wives, were sixty-six persons in all;

rsv@Genesis:46:28 @ He sent Judah before him to Joseph, to appear before him in Goshen; and they came into the land of Goshen.

rsv@Genesis:46:29 @ Then Joseph made ready his chariot and went up to meet Israel his father in Goshen; and he presented himself to him, and fell on his neck, and wept on his neck a good while.

rsv@Genesis:46:30 @ Israel said to Joseph, "Now let me die, since I have seen your face and know that you are still alive."

rsv@Genesis:47:2 @ And from among his brothers he took five men and presented them to Pharaoh.

rsv@Genesis:47:3 @ Pharaoh said to his brothers, "What is your occupation?" And they said to Pharaoh, "Your servants are shepherds, as our fathers were."

rsv@Genesis:47:5 @ Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Your father and your brothers have come to you.

rsv@Genesis:47:8 @ And Pharaoh said to Jacob, "How many are the days of the years of your life?"

rsv@Genesis:47:9 @ And Jacob said to Pharaoh, "The days of the years of my sojourning are a hundred and thirty years; few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their sojourning."

rsv@Genesis:47:12 @ And Joseph provided his father, his brothers, and all his father's household with food, according to the number of their dependents.

rsv@Genesis:47:14 @ And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, for the grain which they bought; and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house.

rsv@Genesis:47:15 @ And when the money was all spent in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, "Give us food; why should we die before your eyes? For our money is gone."

rsv@Genesis:47:17 @ So they brought their cattle to Joseph; and Joseph gave them food in exchange for the horses, the flocks, the herds, and the asses: and he supplied them with food in exchange for all their cattle that year.

rsv@Genesis:47:18 @ And when that year was ended, they came to him the following year, and said to him, "We will not hide from my lord that our money is all spent; and the herds of cattle are my lord's; there is nothing left in the sight of my lord but our bodies and our lands.

rsv@Genesis:47:19 @ Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for food, and we with our land will be slaves to Pharaoh; and give us seed, that we may live, and not die, and that the land may not be desolate."

rsv@Genesis:47:21 @ and as for the people, he made slaves of them from one end of Egypt to the other.

rsv@Genesis:47:23 @ Then Joseph said to the people, "Behold, I have this day bought you and your land for Pharaoh. Now here is seed for you, and you shall sow the land.

rsv@Genesis:47:24 @ And at the harvests you shall give a fifth to Pharaoh, and four fifths shall be your own, as seed for the field and as food for yourselves and your households, and as food for your little ones."

rsv@Genesis:47:25 @ And they said, "You have saved our lives; may it please my lord, we will be slaves to Pharaoh."

rsv@Genesis:47:26 @ So Joseph made it a statute concerning the land of Egypt, and it stands to this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth; the land of the priests alone did not become Pharaoh's.

rsv@Genesis:47:29 @ And when the time drew near that Israel must die, he called his son Joseph and said to him, "If now I have found favor in your sight, put your hand under my thigh, and promise to deal loyally and truly with me. Do not bury me in Egypt,

rsv@Genesis:47:31 @ And he said, "Swear to me"; and he swore to him. Then Israel bowed himself upon the head of his bed.

rsv@Genesis:48:1 @ After this Joseph was told, "Behold, your father is ill"; so he took with him his two sons, Manas'seh and E'phraim.

rsv@Genesis:48:2 @ And it was told to Jacob, "Your son Joseph has come to you"; then Israel summoned his strength, and sat up in bed.

rsv@Genesis:48:3 @ And Jacob said to Joseph, "God Almighty appeared to me at Luz in the land of Canaan and blessed me,

rsv@Genesis:48:7 @ For when I came from Paddan, Rachel to my sorrow died in the land of Canaan on the way, when there was still some distance to go to Ephrath; and I buried her there on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem)."

rsv@Genesis:48:17 @ When Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand upon the head of E'phraim, it displeased him; and he took his father's hand, to remove it from E'phraim's head to Manas'seh's head.

rsv@Genesis:48:18 @ And Joseph said to his father, "Not so, my father; for this one is the first-born; put your right hand upon his head."

rsv@Numbers:8:24 @ "This is what pertains to the Levites: from twenty-five years old and upward they shall go in to perform the work in the service of the tent of meeting;

rsv@Numbers:8:26 @ but minister to their brethren in the tent of meeting, to keep the charge, and they shall do no service. Thus shall you do to the Levites in assigning their duties."

rsv@Numbers:9:3 @ On the fourteenth day of this month, in the evening, you shall keep it at its appointed time; according to all its statutes and all its ordinances you shall keep it."

rsv@Numbers:9:4 @ So Moses told the people of Israel that they should keep the passover.

rsv@Numbers:9:5 @ And they kept the passover in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, in the wilderness of Sinai; according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so the people of Israel did.

rsv@Numbers:9:6 @ And there were certain men who were unclean through touching the dead body of a man, so that they could not keep the passover on that day; and they came before Moses and Aaron on that day;

rsv@Numbers:9:7 @ and those men said to him, "We are unclean through touching the dead body of a man; why are we kept from offering the LORD's offering at its appointed time among the people of Israel?"

rsv@Numbers:9:8 @ And Moses said to them, "Wait, that I may hear what the LORD will command concerning you."

rsv@Numbers:9:9 @ The LORD said to Moses,

rsv@Numbers:9:10 @ "Say to the people of Israel, If any man of you or of your descendants is unclean through touching a dead body, or is afar off on a journey, he shall still keep the passover to the LORD.

rsv@Numbers:9:12 @ They shall leave none of it until the morning, nor break a bone of it; according to all the statute for the passover they shall keep it.

rsv@Numbers:9:14 @ And if a stranger sojourns among you, and will keep the passover to the LORD, according to the statute of the passover and according to its ordinance, so shall he do; you shall have one statute, both for the sojourner and for the native."

rsv@Numbers:9:20 @ Sometimes the cloud was a few days over the tabernacle, and according to the command of the LORD they remained in camp; then according to the command of the LORD they set out.

rsv@Numbers:10:1 @ The LORD said to Moses,

rsv@Numbers:10:3 @ And when both are blown, all the congregation shall gather themselves to you at the entrance of the tent of meeting.

rsv@Numbers:10:4 @ But if they blow only one, then the leaders, the heads of the tribes of Israel, shall gather themselves to you.

rsv@Numbers:10:6 @ And when you blow an alarm the second time, the camps that are on the south side shall set out. An alarm is to be blown whenever they are to set out.

rsv@Numbers:10:7 @ But when the assembly is to be gathered together, you shall blow, but you shall not sound an alarm.

rsv@Numbers:10:8 @ And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets. The trumpets shall be to you for a perpetual statute throughout your generations.

rsv@Numbers:10:9 @ And when you go to war in your land against the adversary who oppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets, that you may be remembered before the LORD your God, and you shall be saved from your enemies.

rsv@Numbers:10:28 @ This was the order of march of the people of Israel according to their hosts, when they set out.

rsv@Numbers:10:29 @ And Moses said to Hobab the son of Reu'el the Mid'ianite, Moses' father-in-law, "We are setting out for the place of which the LORD said, `I will give it to you'; come with us, and we will do you good; for the LORD has promised good to Israel."

rsv@Numbers:10:30 @ But he said to him, "I will not go; I will depart to my own land and to my kindred."

rsv@Numbers:10:33 @ So they set out from the mount of the LORD three days' journey; and the ark of the covenant of the LORD went before them three days' journey, to seek out a resting place for them.

rsv@Numbers:10:36 @ And when it rested, he said, "Return, O LORD, to the ten thousand thousands of Israel."

rsv@Numbers:11:2 @ Then the people cried to Moses; and Moses prayed to the LORD, and the fire abated.

rsv@Numbers:11:4 @ Now the rabble that was among them had a strong craving; and the people of Israel also wept again, and said, "O that we had meat to eat!

rsv@Numbers:11:6 @ but now our strength is dried up, and there is nothing at all but this manna to look at."

rsv@Numbers:11:11 @ Moses said to the LORD, "Why hast thou dealt ill with thy servant? And why have I not found favor in thy sight, that thou dost lay the burden of all this people upon me?

rsv@Numbers:11:12 @ Did I conceive all this people? Did I bring them forth, that thou shouldst say to me, `Carry them in your bosom, as a nurse carries the sucking child, to the land which thou didst swear to give their fathers?'

rsv@Numbers:11:13 @ Where am I to get meat to give to all this people? For they weep before me and say, `Give us meat, that we may eat.'

rsv@Numbers:11:14 @ I am not able to carry all this people alone, the burden is too heavy for me.

rsv@Numbers:11:16 @ And the LORD said to Moses, "Gather for me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom you know to be the elders of the people and officers over them; and bring them to the tent of meeting, and let them take their stand there with you.

rsv@Numbers:11:18 @ And say to the people, `Consecrate yourselves for tomorrow, and you shall eat meat; for you have wept in the hearing of the LORD, saying, "Who will give us meat to eat? For it was well with us in Egypt." Therefore the LORD will give you meat, and you shall eat.

rsv@Numbers:11:24 @ So Moses went out and told the people the words of the LORD; and he gathered seventy men of the elders of the people, and placed them round about the tent.

rsv@Numbers:11:25 @ Then the LORD came down in the cloud and spoke to him, and took some of the spirit that was upon him and put it upon the seventy elders; and when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied. But they did so no more.

rsv@Numbers:11:26 @ Now two men remained in the camp, one named Eldad, and the other named Medad, and the spirit rested upon them; they were among those registered, but they had not gone out to the tent, and so they prophesied in the camp.

rsv@Numbers:11:30 @ And Moses and the elders of Israel returned to the camp.

rsv@Numbers:11:35 @ From Kib'roth-hatta'avah the people journeyed to Haze'roth; and they remained at Haze'roth.

rsv@Numbers:12:4 @ And suddenly the LORD said to Moses and to Aaron and Miriam, "Come out, you three, to the tent of meeting." And the three of them came out.

rsv@Numbers:12:5 @ And the LORD came down in a pillar of cloud, and stood at the door of the tent, and called Aaron and Miriam; and they both came forward.
