1 Således fuldendtes Himmelen og Jorden med al deres Hær.

2 På den syvende Dag fuldendte Gud det Værk, han havde udført, og han hvilede på den syvende Dag efter det Værk, han havde udført;

3 og Gud velsignede den syvende Dag og helligede den, thi på den hvilede han efter hele sit Værk, det, Gud havde skabt og udført.

4 Det er Himmelens og Jordens Skabelseshistorie. Da Gud HE EN gjorde Jord og Himmel

5 dengang fandtes endnu ingen af Markens Buske på Jorden, og endnu var ingen af Markens Urter spiret frem, thi Gud HE EN havde ikke ladet det regne på Jorden, og der var ingen Mennesker til at dyrke Agerjorden,

6 men en Tåge vældede op at Jorden og vandede hele Agerjordens Flade

7 da dannede Gud HE EN Mennesket af Agerjordens Muld og blæste Livsånde i hans Næsebor, så at Mennesket blev et levende Væsen.

8 Derpå plantede Gud HE EN en Have i Eden ude mod Øst, og dem satte han Mennesket, som han havde dannet;

9 Og Gud HE EN lod af Agerjorden fremvokse alle Slags Træer, en Fryd at skue og gode til Føde, desuden Livets Træ, der stod midt i Haven. og Træet til Kundskab om godt og ondt.

10 Der udsprang en Flod i Eden til at vande Haven, og udenfor delte den sig i fire Hovedstrømme.

11 Den ene hedder Pisjon; den løber omkring Landet Havila, hvor der findes Guld

12 og Guldet i det Land er godt, Bdellium og Sjohamsten.

13 Den anden Flod hedder Gihon; den løber omkring Landet Kusj.

14 Den tredje Flod hedder Hiddekel; den løber østen om Assyrien. Den fjerde Flod er Frat.

15 Derpå tog Gud HE EN Adam og satte ham i Edens Have til at dyrke og vogte den.

16 Men Gud HE EN bød Adam: "Af alle Træer i Haven har du Lov at spise,

17 kun af Træet til Kundskab om godt og ondt må du ikke spise; den Dag du spiser deraf, skal du visselig !"

18 Derpå sagde Gud HE EN: "Det er ikke godt for Mennesket at være ene; jeg vil gøre ham en Medhjælp, som passer til ham!"

19 Og Gud HE EN dannede af Agerjorden alle Markens Dyr og Himmelens Fugle og førte dem hen til Adam for at se, hvad han vilde kalde dem; thi hvad Adam kaldte de forskellige levende Væsener, det skulde være deres Navn.

20 Adam gav da alt Kvæget, alle Himmelens Fugle og alle Markens Dyr Navne - men til sig selv fandt Adam ingen Medhjælp, der passede til ham.

21 Så lod Gud HE EN Dvale falde over Adam, og da han var sovet ind, tog han et af hans ibben og lukkede med Kød i dets Sted;

22 og af ibbenet, som Gud HE EN havde taget af Adam, byggede han en Kvinde og førte hende hen til Adam.

23 Da sagde Adam: "Denne Gang er det Ben af mine Ben og Kød af mit Kød; hun skal kaldes Kvinde, thi af Manden er hun taget!"

24 Derfor forlader en Mand sin Fader og Moder og holder sig til sin Hustru, og de to bliver eet Kød.

25 Og de var begge nøgne, både Adam og hans Hustru, men de bluedes ikke.

1330. That 'these are the generations of Shem' means the derivatives of the second Ancient Church is clear from the meaning of 'generations' as the origin and derivation of forms of doctrine and of worship, as stated already in 1145. Here and elsewhere in the Word 'generations' are nothing other than the things that constitute the Church, thus forms of doctrine and of worship. The internal sense of the Word encompasses nothing else. Consequently when any Church is born the generations of it are mentioned, as with the Most Ancient Church in Genesis 2:4, 'These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth'; and likewise with the other Churches that succeeded it before the Flood, 'This is the book of the generations', Genesis 5:1. The same is true of the Churches after the Flood which were three in number - the first called Noah, the second taking its name from Eber, the third from Jacob and subsequently from Judah and Israel. Verse 1 of the previous chapter, where the first Church is described, starts in similar fashion, 'These are the generations of the sons of Noah', as does the present verse in reference to this second Church taking its name from Eber, 'These are the generations of Shem', and in reference to the third as well, in verse 27 below, 'These are the generations of Terah'. Consequently 'generations' means nothing other than the origins and derivatives of forms of doctrine and of worship in the Church that is being described. The reason why the generations of this second Ancient Church are traced back to Shem, that is, why its beginning is described from Shem onwards, is that 'Shem' means internal worship, here the internal worship of this Church. Not that the nature of the internal worship of this Church was the same as that meant by 'Shem' in the previous chapter, but only that it is the internal worship of this Church.

Genesis第12章

1 Now Yahweh said to Abram, "Get out of your country, and from your relatives, and from your father's house, to the land that I will show you.

2 I will make of you a great nation. I will bless you and make your name great. You will be a blessing.

3 I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you. All of the families of the earth will be blessed in you."

4 So Abram went, as Yahweh had spoken to him. Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed out of Haran.

5 Abram took Sarai his wife, Lot his brother's son, all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls whom they had gotten in Haran, and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan. Into the land of Canaan they came.

6 Abram passed through the land to the place of Shechem, to the oak of Moreh. The Canaanite was then in the land.

7 Yahweh appeared to Abram and said, "I will give this land to your seed." He built an altar there to Yahweh, who appeared to him.

8 He left from there to the mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Ai on the east. There he built an altar to Yahweh and called on the name of Yahweh.

9 Abram traveled, going on still toward the South.

10 There was a famine in the land. Abram went down into Egypt to live as a foreigner there, for the famine was severe in the land.

11 It happened, when he had come near to enter Egypt, that he said to Sarai his wife, "See now, I know that you are a beautiful woman to look at.

12 It will happen, when the Egyptians will see you, that they will say, 'This is his wife.' They will kill me, but they will save you alive.

13 Please say that you are my sister, that it may be well with me for your sake, and that my soul may live because of you."

14 It happened that when Abram had come into Egypt, the Egyptians saw that the woman was very beautiful.

15 The princes of Pharaoh saw her, and praised her to Pharaoh; and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.

16 He dealt well with Abram for her sake. He had sheep, cattle, male donkeys, male servants, female servants, female donkeys, and camels.

17 Yahweh plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai, Abram's wife.

18 Pharaoh called Abram and said, "What is this that you have done to me? Why didn't you tell me that she was your wife?

19 Why did you say, 'She is my sister,' so that I took her to be my wife? Now therefore, see your wife, take her, and go your way."

20 Pharaoh commanded men concerning him, and they brought him on the way with his wife and all that he had.
