1 Niin Abram vaelsi ylös Egyptistä emäntänsä ja kaiken kalunsa kanssa, ja Lot hänen kanssansa, etelään päin.

2 Ja Abramilla oli sangen paljo karjaa, hopiaa ja kultaa.

3 Ja hän matkusti edespäin etelästä BetEliin asti, hamaan siihen paikkaan, jossa hänen majansa oli ennen ollut, BetElin ja Ain vaiheella:

4 Juuri siihen paikkaan, johon hän ennen alttarin oli rakentanut; ja Abram saarnasi siinä Herran nimestä.

5 Mutta Lotilla, joka Abramia seurasi, oli myös lampaita, ja karjaa, ja majoja.

6 Ja ei heitä vetänyt maa yhdessä asumaan; sillä heillä oli paljo tavaraa, eikä taitaneet yhdessä asua.

7 Ja riita oli Abramin paimenien ja Lotin paimenien välillä: Ja siihen aikaan asuivat myös Kanaanealaiset ja Pheresiläiset maalla.

8 Niin Abram sanoi Lotille: älkään olko riita minun ja sinun välilläs, ja minun ja sinun paimentes välillä: sillä me olemme miehet veljekset.

9 Eikö koko maa ole edessäs altis? eroita sinus minusta, jos sinä menet vasemmalle puolelle, minä menen oikialle, eli jos sinä menet oikialle, minä menen vasemmalle.

10 Niin Lot nosti silmänsä, ja katseli kaiken Jordanin lakeuden; sillä se oli vedestä viljainen: ennen kuin Herra Sodoman ja Gomorran hukutti, oli se niinkuin Herran yrttitarha, niinkuin Egyptin maa, siihenasti kuin Zoariin tullaan.

11 Ja Lot vallitsi itsellensä koko sen lakeuden Jordanin tykönä, ja matkusti itään päin: ja niin veljekset erkanivat toinen toisestansa:

12 Että Abram asui Kanaanin maalla, ja Lot asui lakeuden kaupungeissa, ja pani majansa Sodoman puoleen.

13 Mutta Sodoman kansa oli paha, ja rikkoi kovin Herraa vastaan.

14 Ja Herra sanoi Abramille, sitte kuin Lot oli eroittanut itsensä Abramista: nosta nyt silmäs ja katso siitä, kussas asut, pohjan puoleen, etelän puoleen, idän puoleen ja lännen puoleen.

15 Sillä kaiken sen maan, minkä sinä näet, annan minä sinulle, ja sinun siemenelles ijankaikkiseksi.

16 Ja teen sinun siemenes niinkuin tomun maan päällä: että jos joku taita lukea tomun maan päällä, niin hän myös taitaa sinun siemenes lukea.

17 Nouse ja vaella maata pitkin ja poikin: sillä sinulle minä sen annan.

18 Niin Abram siirsi majansa, ja tuli, ja asui Mamren lakeudella, joka on Hebronissa: ja rakensi siinä alttarin Herralle.

1465. Verse 11. And it came to pass, when he drew nigh to come into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife, Behold I pray, I know that thou art a woman beautiful to look upon. “And it came to pass, when he drew nigh to come into Egypt,” signifies when He began to learn; “Egypt,” as before said, means the memory-knowledge of knowledges [scientia cognitionum]; “he said unto Sarai his wife,” signifies that He so thought concerning the truths to which celestial things were adjoined; “Sarai” as a wife is the truth adjoined to the celestial things that were in the Lord; “Behold I pray, I know that thou art a woman beautiful to look upon,” signifies that truth from a celestial origin is delightful.

Genesis 12

Funda

   

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.
