To Machir the family of the Machirites; and Machir begot Galaad: to Galaad, the family of the Galaadites. ³⁴ And these [are] the sons of Galaad; to Achiezer, the family of the Achiezerites; to Cheleg, the family of the Chelegites. ³⁵ To Esriel, the family of the Esrielites; to Sychem, the family of the Sychemites. ³⁶ To Symaer, the family of the Symaerites; and to Opher, the family of the Opherites. ³⁷ And to Salpaad the son of Opher there were no sons, but daughters: and these [were] the names of the daughters of Salpaad; Mala, and Nua, and Egla, and Melcha, and Thersa. ³⁸ These [are] the families of Manasse according to their numbering, fifty-two thousand and seven hundred. ³⁹ And these [are] the children of Ephraim; to Suthala, the family of the Suthalanites; to Tanach, the family of the Tanachites. ⁴⁰ These [are] the sons of Suthala; to Eden, the family of the Edenites. ⁴¹ These [are] the families of Ephraim according to their numbering, thirty-two thousand and five hundred: these [are] the families of the children of Joseph according to their families. ⁴² The sons of Benjamin according to their families; to Bale, the family of the Balites; to Asyber, the family of the Asyberites; to Jachiran, the family of the Jachiranites. ⁴³ To Sophan, the family of the Sophanites. ⁴⁴ And the sons of Bale were Adar and Noeman; to Adar, the family of the Adarites; and to Noeman, the family of the Noemanites. ⁴⁵ These [are] the sons of Benjamin by their families according to their numbering, thirty-five thousand and five hundred. ⁴⁶ And the sons of Dan according to their families; to Same, the family of the Sameites; these [are] the families of Dan according to their families. ⁴⁷ All the families of Samei according to their numbering, sixty-four thousand and four hundred. ⁴⁸ The sons of Nephthali according to their families; to Asiel, the family of the Asielites; to Gauni, the family of the Gaunites. ⁴⁹ To Jeser, the family of the Jeserites; to Sellem, the family of the Sellemites. ⁵⁰ These [are] the families of Nephthali, according to their numbering, forty thousand and three hundred. ⁵¹ This [is] the numbering of the children of Israel, six hundred and one thousand and seven hundred and thirty. ⁵² And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ⁵³ To these the land shall be divided, so that they may inherit according to the number of the names. ⁵⁴ To the greater number you shall give the greater inheritance, and to the less number you shall give the less inheritance: to each one, as they have been numbered, shall their inheritance be given. ⁵⁵ The land shall be divided to the names by lot, they shall inherit according to the tribes of their families. ⁵⁶ You shall divide their inheritance by lot between the many and the few. ⁵⁷ And the sons of Levi according to their families; to Gedson, the family of the Gedsonites; to Caath, the family of the Caathites; to Merari, the family of the Merarites. ⁵⁸ These [are] the families of the sons of Levi; the family of the Lobenites, the family of the Chebronites, the family of the Coreites, and the family of the Musites; and Caath begot Amram. ⁵⁹ And the name of his wife [was] Jochabed, daughter of Levi, who bore these to Levi in Egypt, and she bore to Amram, Aaron and Moses, and Mariam their sister. ⁶⁰ And to Aaron were born both Nadab and Abiud, and Eleazar, and Ithamar. ⁶¹ And Nadab and Abiud died when they offered strange fire before the Lord in the wilderness of Sina. ⁶² And there were according to their numbering, twenty-three thousand, every male from a month old and upward; for they were not numbered among the children of Israel, because they have no inheritance in the midst of the children of Israel. ⁶³ And this [is] the numbering of Moses and Eleazar the priest, who numbered the children of Israel in Araboth of Moab, at Jordan by Jericho. ⁶⁴ And among these there was not a man numbered by Moses and Aaron, whom, [even] the children of Israel, they numbered in the wilderness of Sinai. ⁶⁵ For the Lord said to them, They shall surely die in the wilderness; and there was not left even one of them, except Chaleb the son of Jephonne, and Joshua the [son] of Naue.

¹⁵ And God said to Abraam, Sara your wife—her name shall not be called Sara, Sarrha shall be her name.

²⁸ And he said to him, Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel shall be your name; for you have prevailed with God, and shall be mighty with men.

¹⁶ Of the tribe of Gad, Gudiel the son of Macchi.

²⁵ And he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and called his name Jeddedi, for the Lord's sake.

⁷ You are the Lord God, you did choose Abram, and brought him out of the land of the Chaldeans, and gave him the name of Abraam:

² And the Gentiles shall see your righteousness, and kings your glory: and one shall call you [by] a new name, which the Lord shall name. ³ And you shall be a crown of beauty in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of your God. ⁴ And you shall no more be called Forsaken; and your land shall no more be called Desert: for you shall be called My Pleasure, and your land Inhabited: for the Lord has taken pleasure in you, and your land shall be inhabited.

¹⁵ For you⌃ shall leave your name for a loathing to my chosen, and the Lord shall destroy you: but my servants shall be called by a new name,

³ And Paschor brought Jeremias out of the dungeon: and Jeremias said to him, [The Lord] has not called your name Paschor, but Exile.

⁶ In his days both Juda shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell securely: and this is his name, which the Lord shall call him, Josedec among the prophets.

⁴ And I, behold! my covenant [is] with you, and you shall be a father of a multitude of nations.

¹⁶ And I will bless her, and give you a son of her, and I will bless him, and he shall become nations, and kings of nations shall be of him.

²⁰ And concerning Ismael, behold, I have heard you, and, behold, I have blessed him, and will increase him and multiply him exceedingly; twelve nations shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.

²⁰ And there were powerful kings in Jerusalem, and they ruled over all the [country] beyond the river, and abundant revenues and tribute were given to them.

²⁴ And the Lord appeared to him in that night, and said, I am the God of Abraam your father; fear not, for I am with you, and I will bless you, and multiply your seed for the sake of Abraam your father.

¹³ And the Lord stood upon it, and said, I am the God of your father Abraam, and the God of Isaac; fear not, the land on which you lie, to you will I give it, and to your seed.

¹⁵ And God said again to Moses, Thus shall you say to the sons of Israel, The Lord God of our fathers, the God of Abraam, and God of Isaac, and God of Jacob, has sent me to you: this is my name for ever, and my memorial to generations of generations.

⁴ And I established my covenant with them, to give them the land of the Chananites, the land wherein they sojourned, in which also they lived as strangers.

⁵ And now if you⌃ will indeed hear my voice, and keep my covenant, you⌃ shall be to me a peculiar people above all nations; for the whole earth is mine. ⁶ And you⌃ shall be to me a royal priesthood and a holy nation: these words shall you speak to the children of Israel.

¹² and I will walk among you, and be your God, and you⌃ shall be my people.

²⁶ Yes, they shall dwell upon it safely, and they shall build houses, and plant vineyards, and dwell securely, when I shall execute judgment on all that have dishonored them, [even] on those [that are] round about them; and they shall know that I am the Lord their God, and the God of their fathers.

²⁰ He shall give blessings truly to Jacob, and mercy to Abraam, as you sware to our fathers, according to the former days.

¹⁵ for all the land which you see, I will give it to you and to your seed for ever.

¹⁷ Arise and traverse the land, both in the length of it and in the breadth; for to you will I give it, and to your seed for ever.

⁷ And he said to him, I am God that brought you out of the land of the Chaldeans, so as to give you this land to inherit. ⁸ And he said, Master [and] Lord, how shall I know that I shall inherit it? ⁹ And he said to him, Take for me an heifer in her third year, and a she-goat in her third year, and a ram in his third year, and a dove and a pigeon. ¹⁰ So he took to him all these, and divided them in the midst, and set them opposite to each other, but the birds he did not divide. ¹¹ And birds came down upon the bodies, [even] upon the divided parts of them, and Abram sat down by them. ¹² And about sunset a trance fell upon Abram, and behold! a great gloomy terror falls upon him. ¹³ And it was said to Abram, You shall surely know that your seed shall be a sojourner in a land not their won, and they shall enslave them, and afflict them, and humble them four hundred years. ¹⁴ And the nation whoever they shall serve I will judge; and after this, they shall come forth hither with much property. ¹⁵ But you shall depart to your fathers in peace, nourished in a good old age. ¹⁶ And in the fourth generation they shall return hither, for the sins of the Amorites are not yet filled up, even until now. ¹⁷ And when the sun was about to set, there was a flame, and behold a smoking furnace and lamps of fire, which passed between these divided pieces. ¹⁸ In that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, To your seed I will give this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river Euphrates. ¹⁹ The Kenites, and the Kenezites, and the Kedmoneans, ²⁰ and the Chettites, and the Pherezites, and the Raphaim, ²¹ and the Amorites, and the Chananites, and the Evites, and the Gergesites, and the Jebusites.

⁴ I am a sojourner and a stranger among you, give me therefore possession of a burying-place among you, and I will bury my dead away from me.

⁴ And may he give you the blessing of my father Abraam, even to you and to your seed after you, to inherit the land of your sojourning, which God gave to Abraam.

⁴ and said to me, Behold, I will increase you, and multiply you, and will make of you multitudes of nations; and I will give this land to you, and to your seed after you, for an everlasting possession.

⁷ And I will take you to me a people for myself, and will be your God; and you⌃ shall know that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from the tyranny of the Egyptians.

⁶ his master shall bring him to the judgment-seat of God, and then shall he bring him to the door, —to the door-post, and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl, and he shall serve him for ever.

¹⁶ And the children of Israel shall keep the sabbaths, to observe them throughout their generations. ¹⁷ It is a perpetual covenant with me and the children of Israel, it is a perpetual sign with me; for in six days the Lord made the heaven and the earth, and on the seventh day he ceased, and rested.

¹⁵ And you shall anoint them as you did anoint their father, and they shall minister to me as priests; and it shall be that they shall have an everlasting anointing of priesthood, throughout their generations.

³⁴ And this shall be to you a perpetual statute to make atonement for the children of Israel for all their sins: it shall be done once in the year, as the Lord commanded Moses.

¹³ and he and his seed after him shall have a perpetual covenant of priesthood, because he was zealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.

³⁷ Because he loved your fathers, he also chose you their seed after them, and he brought you himself with his great strength out of Egypt,

² For you are a holy people to the Lord your God, and the Lord your God has chosen you to be a peculiar people to himself of all the nations on the face of the earth.

¹⁸ And the Lord has chosen you this day that you should be to him a peculiar people, as he said, to keep his commands;

¹³ that he may appoint you to himself for a people, and he shall be your God, as he said to you, and as he sware to your fathers, Abraam, and Isaac, and Jacob.

⁸ When the Most High divided the nations, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the nations according to the number of the angels of God.

⁵ For my house [is] not so with the Mighty One: for he has made an everlasting covenant with me, ready, guarded at every time; for all my salvation and all my desire [is], that the wicked should not flourish.

¹⁷ There the sparrows will build their nests; and the house of the heron takes the lead among them.

⁹ And he rebuked the Red Sea, and it was dried up: so he led them through the deep as through the wilderness.

¹¹ The water covered those that oppressed them: there was not one of them left.

¹⁰ in whose hands [are] iniquities, [and] their right hand is filled with bribes.

¹⁸ The high mountains are a refuge for the stags, [and] the rock for the rabbits.

⁴ Thus says the Lord to the eunuchs, as many as shall keep my sabbaths, and choose the things which I take pleasure in, and take hold of my covenant; ⁵ I will give to them in my house and within my walls an honorable place, better than sons and daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, and it shall not fail.

¹¹ And you⌃ shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin, and it shall be for a sign of a covenant between me and you.

¹⁵ Only on these terms will we conform to you, and dwell among you, if you⌃ also will be as we are, in that every male of you be circumcised.

²⁵ and Sepphora having taken a stone cut off the foreskin of her son, and fell at his feet and said, The blood of the circumcision of my son is staunched:

⁴⁸ And if any proselyte shall come to you to keep the passover to the Lord, you shall circumcise every male of him, and then shall he approach to sacrifice it, and he shall be even as the original inhabitant of the land; no uncircumcised person shall eat of it.

¹⁶ Therefore you⌃ shall circumcise the hardness of your heart, and you⌃ shall not harden your neck.

⁶ And the Lord shall purge your heart, and the heart of your seed, to love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, that you may live.

² And about this time the Lord said to Joshua, Make you stone knives of sharp stone, and sit down and circumcise the children of Israel the second time.

⁴ And [this is] the way in which Joshua purified the children of Israel; as many as were born in the way, and as many as were uncircumcised of them that came out of Egypt,

⁴ Circumcise yourselves to your God, and circumcise your hardness of heart, you⌃ men of Juda, and inhabitants of Jerusalem: lest my wrath go forth as fire, and burn, and there be none to quench it, because of the evil of your devices.

²⁵ Behold, the days come, says the Lord, when I will visit upon all the circumcised their uncircumcision; ²⁶ on Egypt, and on Idumea, and on Edom, and on the children of Ammon, and on the children of Moab, and on every one that shaves his face round about, [even] them that dwell in the wilderness; for all the Gentiles are uncircumcised in flesh, and all the house of Israel are uncircumcised [in] their hearts.

³ And Joshua made sharp knives of stone, and circumcised the children of Israel at the place called the “Hill of Foreskins.”

²⁵ And Saul said, Thus shall you⌃ speak to David, The king wants no gift but a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to avenge himself on the kings enemies. Now Saul thought to cast him into the hands of the Philistines. ²⁶ And the servants of Saul report these words to David, and David was well pleased to become the son-in-law to the king. ²⁷ And David arose, and went, he and his men, and struck among the Philistines a hundred men: and he brought their foreskins, and he becomes the king's son-in-law, and [Saul] gives him Melchol his daughter to wife.

¹⁴ And David sent messengers to Jebosthe the son of Saul, saying, Restore me my wife Melchol, whom I took for a hundred foreskins of the Philistines.

²³ And Abraam took Ismael his son, and all his home-born [servants], and all those bought with money, and every male of the men in the house of Abraam, and he circumcised their foreskins in the time of that day, according as God spoke to him.

⁴ And Abraam circumcised Isaac on the eighth day, as God commanded him.

⁴⁸ And if any proselyte shall come to you to keep the passover to the Lord, you shall circumcise every male of him, and then shall he approach to sacrifice it, and he shall be even as the original inhabitant of the land; no uncircumcised person shall eat of it. ⁴⁹ There shall be one law to the native, and to the proselyte coming among you.

³ And on the eighth day she shall circumcise the flesh of his foreskin.

¹⁴ And Abram having heard that Lot his nephew had been taken captive, numbered his own home-born [servants] three hundred and eighteen, and pursued after them to Dan.

³ And Abram said, [I am grieved] since you have given me no seed, but my home-born [servant] shall succeed me.

²⁷ Come, let us sell him to these Ismaelites, but let not our hands be upon him, because he is our brother and our flesh; and his brethren listened.

¹ And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Petephres the eunuch of Pharao, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ismaelites, who brought him down there.

⁴⁴ And every slave or servant bought with money—him you shall circumcise, and then shall he eat of it.

² If you buy a Hebrew servant, six years shall he serve you, and in the seventh year he shall go forth free for nothing.

⁴ Moreover, if his master give him a wife, and she have [born] him sons or daughters, the wife and the children shall be his master's; and he shall go forth alone.

¹⁶ He that reviles his father or his mother shall surely die.

⁵ And now our flesh [is] as the flesh of our brethren, our children [are] as their children: yet, behold, we are reducing our sons and our daughters to slavery, and some of our daughters are enslaved: and there is no power of our hands, for our fields and our vineyards [belong] to the nobles.

⁸ and I said to them, We of our free-will have redeemed our brethren the Jews that were sold to the Gentiles; and do you⌃ sell your brethren? and shall they be delivered to us? And they were silent, and found no answer.

²⁴ And it came to pass [that] the angel of the Lord met him by the way in the inn, and sought to kill him. ²⁵ and Sepphora having taken a stone cut off the foreskin of her son, and fell at his feet and said, The blood of the circumcision of my son is staunched: ²⁶ and he departed from him, because she said, The blood of the circumcision of my son is staunched.

¹⁵ Seven days you⌃ shall eat unleavened bread, and from the first day you⌃ shall utterly remove leaven from your houses: whoever shall eat leaven, that soul shall be utterly destroyed from Israel, from the first day until the seventh day.

¹⁹ Seven days leaven shall not be found in your houses; whoever shall eat anything leavened, that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, both among the occupiers of the land and the original inhabitants.

³³ Whosoever shall make it in like manner, and whoever shall give of it to a stranger, shall be destroyed from among his people.

³⁸ Whosoever shall make any in like manner, so as to smell it, shall perish from his people.

²⁰ His hands shall bring the burnt offerings to the Lord; the fat which is on the breast and the lobe of the liver, he shall bring them, so as to set them for a gift before the Lord. ²¹ And the priest shall offer the fat upon the altar, and the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons,

²⁵ This is the anointing of Aaron, and the anointing of his sons, [their portion] of the burnt offerings of the Lord, in the day in which he brought them forward to minister as priests to the Lord;

²⁷ This [is] the law of the whole burnt offerings, and of sacrifice, and of sin-offering, and of offering for transgression, and of the sacrifice of consecration, and of the sacrifice of peace-offering;

²⁹ For whoever shall do any of these abominations, the souls that do them shall be destroyed from among their people.

⁸ And he that eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the holy things of the Lord; and the souls that eat it shall be destroyed from among their people.

³⁰ And whatever soul either of the natives or of the strangers shall do any thing with a presumptuous hand, he will provoke God; that soul shall be cut off from his people, ³¹ for he has set at nothing the word of the Lord and broken his commands: that soul shall be utterly destroyed, his sin [is] upon him.

² And about this time the Lord said to Joshua, Make you stone knives of sharp stone, and sit down and circumcise the children of Israel the second time. ³ And Joshua made sharp knives of stone, and circumcised the children of Israel at the place called the “Hill of Foreskins.” ⁴ And [this is] the way in which Joshua purified the children of Israel; as many as were born in the way, and as many as were uncircumcised of them that came out of Egypt, ⁵ all these Joshua circumcised; for forty and two years Israel wondered in the wilderness of Mabdaris— ⁶ Therefore most of the fighting men that came out of the land of Egypt, were uncircumcised, who disobeyed the commands of God; concerning whom also he determined that they should not see the land, which the Lord sware to give to their fathers, [even] a land flowing with milk and honey. ⁷ And in their place he raised up their sons, whom Joshua circumcised, because they were uncircumcised, having been born by the way. ⁸ And when they had been circumcised they rested continuing there in the camp till they were healed. ⁹ And the Lord said to Joshua the son of Naue, On this day have I removed the reproach of Egypt from you: and he called the name of that place Galgala. ¹⁰ And the children of Israel kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, to the westward of Jericho on the opposite side of the Jordan in the plain. ¹¹ And they ate of the grain of the earth unleavened and new [corn]. ¹² In this day the manna failed, after they had eaten of the corn of the land, and the children of Israel no longer had manna: and they took the fruits of the land of the Phoenicians in that year.

⁵ And she has sinned by reason of her inhabitants; because they have transgressed the law, and changed the ordinances, [even] the everlasting covenant.

⁸ For the ways of these shall be made desolate: the terror of the nations has been made to cease, and the covenant with these is taken away, and you⌃ shall by no means deem them men.

¹⁰ They are turned [aside] to the iniquities of their fathers that were of old, who would not listen to my words: and, behold, they go after strange gods, to serve them: and the house of Israel and the house of Juda have broken my covenant, which I made with their fathers.

³² O vine of Aserema, as with the weeping of Jazer: your branches are gone over the sea, they reached the cities of Jazer: destruction has come upon your fruits, [and] upon your grape gatherers.

⁵ And your name shall no more be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraam, for I have made you a father of many nations.

²⁸ And God blessed them, saying, Increase and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the seas and flying creatures of heaven, and all the cattle and all the earth, and all the reptiles that creep on the earth.

⁶ And I will increase you very exceedingly, and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come out of you.

¹⁰ And he said, I will return and come to you according to this period seasonably, and Sarrha your wife shall have a son; and Sarrha heard at the door of the tent, being behind him. ¹¹ And Abraam and Sarrha were old, advanced in days, and the custom of women ceased with Sarrha. ¹² And Sarrha laughed in herself, saying, The thing has not as yet happened to me, even until now, and my lord is old. ¹³ And the Lord said to Abraam, Why is it that Sarrha has laughed in herself, saying, Shall I then indeed bear? but I am grown old. ¹⁴ Shall anything be impossible with the Lord? At this time I will return to you seasonably, and Sarrha shall have a son.

⁶⁰ And they blessed Rebecca, and said to her, You are our sister; become you thousands of myriads, and let your seed possess the cities of their enemies.

²³ And kings shall be your nursing fathers, and their princesses your nurses, they shall bow down to you on the face of the earth, and shall lick the dust of your feet; and you shall know that I am the Lord, and they that wait on me shall not be ashamed.

³ And Abram fell upon his face, and God spoke to him, saying,

¹² And Sarrha laughed in herself, saying, The thing has not as yet happened to me, even until now, and my lord is old.

⁶ And Sarrha said, The Lord has made laughter for me, for whoever shall hear shall rejoice with me.

²⁴ And fire came forth from the Lord, and devoured the offerings on the altar, both the whole burnt offerings and the fat; and all the people saw, and were amazed, and fell upon their faces.

¹⁸ And I made my petition before the Lord as also at the first forty days and forty nights: I ate no bread and drank no water, on account of all your sins which you⌃ sinned in doing evil before the Lord God to provoke him.

²⁵ And I prayed before the Lord forty days and forty nights, the number that I prayed [before], for the Lord said that he would utterly destroy you.

⁶ And Joshua tore his garments; and Joshua fell on the earth on his face before the Lord until evening, he and the elders of Israel; and they cast dust on their heads.

¹⁶ And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the Lord, standing between the earth and the heaven, and his sword drawn in his hand, stretched out over Jerusalem: and David and the elders clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.

²⁰ So Job arose, and tore his garments, and shaved the hair of his head, and fell on the earth, and worshipped,

¹⁷ And he came and stood near where I stood: and when he came, I was struck with awe, and fell upon my face: but he said to me, Understand, son of man: for yet the vision is for an appointed time.

¹² When you till the earth, then it shall not continue to give its strength to you: you shall be groaning and trembling on the earth.

¹⁴ If you cast me out this day from the face of the earth, and I shall be hidden from your presence, and I shall be groaning and trembling upon the earth, then it will be that any one that finds me shall kill me.

⁶ Many say, Who will show us good things? the light of your countenance, O Lord, has been manifested towards us.

² Nay, your iniquities separate between you and God, and because of your sins has he turned away [his] face from you, so as not to have mercy [upon you].

²¹ But I will establish my covenant with Isaac, whom Sarrha shall bear to you at this time, in the next year.

² And she conceived and bore to Abraam a son in old age, at the set time according as the Lord spoke to him. ³ And Abraam called the name of his son that was born to him, whom Sarrha bore to him, Isaac.

³ And sojourn in this land; and I will be with you, and bless you, for I will give to you and to your seed all this land; and I will establish my oath which I swore to your father Abraam.

¹⁶ And Elisaie said to her, At this time [next year], as the season [is], you [shall be] alive, and embrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, do not lie to your servant. ¹⁷ And the woman conceived, and bore a son at the very time, as the season was, being alive, as Elisaie said to her.

¹⁰ And the angel of the Lord said to her, I will surely multiply your seed, and it shall not be numbered for multitude. ¹¹ And the angel of the Lord said to her, Behold you are with child, and shall bear a son, and shall call his name Ismael, for the Lord has listened to your humiliation. ¹² He shall be a wild man, his hands against all, and the hands of all against him, and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.

¹³ And moreover I will make the son of this bondwoman a great nation, because he is your seed.

¹⁸ Rise up, and take the child, and hold him in your hand, for I will make him a great nation.

¹⁰ And he said, I will return and come to you according to this period seasonably, and Sarrha your wife shall have a son; and Sarrha heard at the door of the tent, being behind him.

¹⁰ then she said to Abraam, Cast out this bondwoman and her son, for the son of this bondwoman shall not inherit with my son Isaac. ¹¹ But the word appeared very hard before Abraam concerning his son. ¹² But God said to Abraam, Let it not be hard before you concerning the child, and concerning the bondwoman; in all things whatever Sarrha shall say to you, hear her voice, for in Isaac shall your seed be called.

² And the Lord appeared to him and said, Go not down to Egypt, but dwell in the land, which I shall tell you of. ³ And sojourn in this land; and I will be with you, and bless you, for I will give to you and to your seed all this land; and I will establish my oath which I swore to your father Abraam. ⁴ And I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven; and I will give to your seed all this land, and all the nations of the earth shall be blest in your seed. ⁵ Because Abraam your father listened to my voice, and kept my injunctions, and my commandments, and my ordinances, and my statutes.

¹ And Israel departed, he and all that he had, and came to the well of the oath; and he offered sacrifice to the God of his father Isaac.

²⁴ And God heard their groanings, and God remembered his covenant made with Abraam and Isaac and Jacob.

¹³ For oh that you had kept me in the grave, and had hidden me until your wrath should cease, and you should set me a time in which you would remember me!

³³ And the Lord departed, when he left off speaking to Abraam, and Abraam returned to his place.

⁹ And God appeared to Jacob once more in Luza, when he came out of Mesopotamia of Syria, and God blessed him. ¹⁰ And God said to him, Your name shall not be called Jacob, but Israel shall be your name; and he called his name Israel. ¹¹ And God said to him, I am your God; increase and multiply; for nations and gatherings of nations shall be of you, and kings shall come out of your loins. ¹² And the land which I gave to Abraam and Isaac, I have given it to you; and it shall come to pass that I will give this land also to your seed after you. ¹³ And God went up from him from the place where he spoke with him. ¹⁴ And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where God spoke with him, [even] a pillar of stone; and offered a libation upon it, and poured oil upon it. ¹⁵ And Jacob called the name of the place in which God spoke with him, Baethel.

²² And the Lord said to Moses, Thus shall you say to the house of Jacob, and you shall report it to the children of Israel, You⌃ have seen that I have spoken to you from heaven.

⁶ And he said to them, Hear my words: If there should be of you a prophet to the Lord, I will be made known to him in a vision, and in sleep will I speak to him. ⁷ My servant Moses [is] not so; he is faithful in all my house. ⁸ I will speak to him mouth to mouth apparently, and not in dark speeches; and he has seen the glory of the Lord; and why were you⌃ not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?

⁴ The Lord spoke to you face to face in the mountain out of the midst of the fire.

²¹ And the angel of the Lord stretched out the end of the rod that was in his hand, and touched the flesh and the unleavened bread; and fire came up out of the rock, and consumed the flesh and the unleavened bread, and the angel of the Lord vanished from his sight.

¹⁰ And this [is] the covenant which you shall fully keep between me and you, and between your seed after you for their generations; every male of you shall be circumcised. ¹¹ And you⌃ shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskin, and it shall be for a sign of a covenant between me and you. ¹² And the child of eight days [old] shall be circumcised by you, every male throughout your generations, and [the servant] born in the house and he that is bought with money, of every son of a stranger, who is not of your seed. ¹³ He that is born in your house, and he that is bought with money shall be surely circumcised, and my covenant shall be on your flesh for an everlasting covenant. ¹⁴ And the uncircumcised male, who shall not be circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin on the eighth day, that soul shall be utterly destroyed from its family, for he has broken my covenant.

²⁶ And at the period of that day, Abraam was circumcised, and Ismael his son, ²⁷ and all the men of his house, both those born in the house, and those bought with money of foreign nations.

¹⁹ For I know that he will order his sons, and his house after him, and they will keep the ways of the Lord, to do justice and judgment, that the Lord may bring upon Abraam all things whatever he has spoken to him.

²⁴ And all that went in at the gate of their city listened to Emmor and Sychem his son, and they were circumcised in the flesh of their foreskin every male.

² And about this time the Lord said to Joshua, Make you stone knives of sharp stone, and sit down and circumcise the children of Israel the second time. ³ And Joshua made sharp knives of stone, and circumcised the children of Israel at the place called the “Hill of Foreskins.” ⁴ And [this is] the way in which Joshua purified the children of Israel; as many as were born in the way, and as many as were uncircumcised of them that came out of Egypt, ⁵ all these Joshua circumcised; for forty and two years Israel wondered in the wilderness of Mabdaris— ⁶ Therefore most of the fighting men that came out of the land of Egypt, were uncircumcised, who disobeyed the commands of God; concerning whom also he determined that they should not see the land, which the Lord sware to give to their fathers, [even] a land flowing with milk and honey. ⁷ And in their place he raised up their sons, whom Joshua circumcised, because they were uncircumcised, having been born by the way. ⁸ And when they had been circumcised they rested continuing there in the camp till they were healed. ⁹ And the Lord said to Joshua the son of Naue, On this day have I removed the reproach of Egypt from you: and he called the name of that place Galgala.

¹ Boast not of to-morrow; for you know not what the next day shall bring forth.

¹⁰ Whatsoever your hand shall find to do, do with all your might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in Hades wither you go.

⁴ And Abram went as the Lord spoke to him, and Lot departed with him, and Abram was seventy-five years old, when he went out of Charrhan.

¹ And Abram was ninety-nine years old, and the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, I am your God, be well-pleasing before me, and be blameless.

³ And Abraam rose up in the morning and saddled his ass, and he took with him two servants, and Isaac his son, and having split wood for a whole burnt offering, he arose and departed, and came to the place of which God spoke to him, ⁴ on the third day; and Abraam having lifted up his eyes, saw the place afar off.
