CHAP. XII.
1 God calleth Abram, and bleſſeth him with a promiſe of Chriſt. 4 He with Lot departeth from Haran. 6 He journeyeth through Canaan, which is promiſed him in a viſion. 10 He is driven by a famine into Egypt, where fear maketh him feign his wife to be his ſiſter. 14 Pharaoh taketh her into his houſe, but by plagues is compelled to reſtore her; and ſendeth Abram away.
Now the [9] LORD had ſaid unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's houſe, unto a land that I will ſhew thee:
2 [10] And I will make of thee a great nation, [11] and I will bleſs thee, and make thy name great; [12] and thou ſhalt be a bleſſing:
3 [13] And I will bleſs them that bleſs thee, and curſe him that curſeth thee: [14] and in thee ſhall all families of the earth be bleſſed.
4 ¶ So Abram departed, as the LORD had ſpoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was ſeventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.
5 And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's ſon, and all their ſubſtance that they had gathered, and [15] the ſouls that they had gotten [16] in Haran; and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.
6 ¶ And Abram [17] paſſed through the land unto the place of Sichem, [18] unto the plain of Moreh. [19] And the Canaanite was then in the land.
7 [20] And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and ſaid, [21] Unto thy ſeed will I give this land: and there builded he an [22] altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.
8 And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the eaſt of Beth-el, and pitched his tent, having Beth-el on the weſt, and Hai on the eaſt: and there he builded an altar unto the LORD, and [23] called upon the name of the LORD.
9 And Abram journeyed, †† Heb. in going and journeying. [24] going on ſtill toward the ſouth.
10 ¶ And there was [25] a famine in the land: and Abram [26] went down into Egypt to ſojourn there; for the famine was [27] grievous in the land.
11 And it came to paſs, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he ſaid unto Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou art [28] a fair woman to look upon:
12 Therefore it ſhall come to paſs, when the Egyptians ſhall ſee thee, that they ſhall ſay, This is his wife: and they [29] will kill me, but they will ſave thee alive.
13 [30] Say, I pray thee, thou art my ſiſter: that it may be well with me for thy ſake; and my ſoul ſhall live becauſe of thee.
14cir. 1920. ¶ And it came to paſs, that, when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians [31] beheld the woman that ſhe was very fair.
15 The princes alſo of Pharaoh ſaw her, and commended her before Pharaoh: and the woman was [32] taken into Pharaoh's houſe.
16 And he [33] entreated Abram well for her ſake: and he had ſheep, and oxen, and he aſſes, and menſervants, and maidſervants, and ſhe aſſes, and camels.
17 And the LORD [34] plagued Pharaoh and his houſe with great plagues becauſe of Sarai Abram's wife.
18 And Pharaoh called Abram, and ſaid, [35] What is this that thou haſt done unto me? why didſt thou not tell me that ſhe was thy wife?
19 Why ſaidſt thou, She is my ſiſter? ſo I might have taken her to me to wife: now therefore behold thy wife, take her, and go thy way.
20 [36] And Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him: and they ſent him away, and his wife, and all that he had.
