And the man said:

This one, at last, is bone of my bone

and flesh of my flesh;

this one will be called “woman,”

for she was taken from man.

The woman saw that the tree was good for food and delightful to look at, and that it was desirable for obtaining wisdom. So she took some of its fruit and ate it; she also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.

He said to the woman:

I will intensify your labor pains;

you will bear children with painful effort.

Your desire will be for your husband,

yet he will rule over you.

Lamech said to his wives:

Adah and Zillah, hear my voice;

wives of Lamech, pay attention to my words.

For I killed a man for wounding me,

a young man for striking me.

Then Pharaoh gave his men orders about him, and they sent him away with his wife and all he had.

Then the king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the people, but take the possessions for yourself.”

“I will take nothing except what the servants have eaten. But as for the share of the men who came with me ​— ​Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre ​— ​they can take their share.”

So Abram’s wife, Sarai, took Hagar, her Egyptian slave, and gave her to her husband, Abram, as a wife for him. This happened after Abram had lived in the land of Canaan ten years.

So Abraham took his son Ishmael and those born in his household or purchased ​— ​every male among the members of Abraham’s household ​— ​and he circumcised the flesh of their foreskin on that very day, just as God had said to him.

And all the men of his household ​— ​whether born in his household or purchased from a foreigner ​— ​were circumcised with him.

He looked up, and he saw three men standing near him. When he saw them, he ran from the entrance of the tent to meet them, bowed to the ground,

The men got up from there and looked out over Sodom, and Abraham was walking with them to see them off.

The men turned from there and went toward Sodom while Abraham remained standing before the LORD.[fn]

Before they went to bed, the men of the city of Sodom, both young and old, the whole population, surrounded the house.

“Look, I’ve got two daughters who haven’t been intimate with a man. I’ll bring them out to you, and you can do whatever you want[fn] to them. However, don’t do anything to these men, because they have come under the protection of my roof.”

Abraham said about his wife Sarah, “She is my sister.” So King Abimelech of Gerar had Sarah brought to him.

Now the girl was very beautiful, a virgin ​— ​no man had been intimate with her. She went down to the spring, filled her jug, and came up.

So the man came to the house, and the camels were unloaded. Straw and feed were given to the camels, and water was brought to wash his feet and the feet of the men with him.

Then he and the men with him ate and drank and spent the night.

When they got up in the morning, he said, “Send me to my master.”

When the men of the place asked about his wife, he said, “She is my sister,” for he was afraid to say “my wife,” thinking, “The men of the place will kill me on account of Rebekah, for she is a beautiful woman.”

Jacob answered Rebekah his mother, “Look, my brother Esau is a hairy man, but I am a man with smooth skin.

Laban replied, “Better that I give her to you than to some other man. Stay with me.”

So Laban invited all the men of the place and sponsored a feast.

Leah conceived, gave birth to a son, and named him Reuben,[fn] for she said, “The LORD has seen my affliction; surely my husband will love me now.”

She conceived again, gave birth to a son, and said, “At last, my husband will become attached to me because I have borne three sons for him.” Therefore he was named Levi.[fn]

But Leah replied to her, “Isn’t it enough that you have taken my husband? Now you also want to take my son’s mandrakes? ”

“Well then,” Rachel said, “he can sleep with you tonight in exchange for your son’s mandrakes.”

Leah said, “God has rewarded me for giving my slave to my husband,” and she named him Issachar.[fn]

“God has given me a good gift,” Leah said. “This time my husband will honor me because I have borne six sons for him,” and she named him Zebulun.[fn]

When the messengers returned to Jacob, they said, “We went to your brother Esau; he is coming to meet you ​— ​and he has four hundred men with him.”

Now Jacob looked up and saw Esau coming toward him with four hundred men. So he divided the children among Leah, Rachel, and the two slave women.

Jacob’s sons returned from the field when they heard about the incident. They were deeply grieved and very angry, for Shechem had committed an outrage against Israel by raping Jacob’s daughter, and such a thing should not be done.

So Hamor and his son Shechem went to the gate of their city and spoke to the men of their city.

He asked the men of the place, “Where is the cult prostitute who was beside the road at Enaim? ”

“There has been no cult prostitute here,” they answered.

Now Joseph had been taken to Egypt. An Egyptian named Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh and the captain of the guards, bought him from the Ishmaelites who had brought him there.

The men took this gift, double the amount of silver, and Benjamin. They immediately went down to Egypt and stood before Joseph.

“The men are shepherds; they also raise livestock. They have brought their flocks and herds and all that they have.’

“you are to say, ‘Your servants, both we and our ancestors, have raised livestock[fn] from our youth until now.’ Then you will be allowed to settle in the land of Goshen, since all shepherds are detestable to Egyptians.”

He took five of his brothers and presented them to Pharaoh.

Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Now that your father and brothers have come to you,

“He saw that his resting place was good

and that the land was pleasant,

so he leaned his shoulder to bear a load

and became a forced laborer.

The next day he went out and saw two Hebrews fighting. He asked the one in the wrong, “Why are you attacking your neighbor? ”[fn]

“No, go ​— ​just able-bodied men ​— ​worship the LORD, since that’s what you want.” And they were driven from Pharaoh’s presence.

The Israelites traveled from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand able-bodied men on foot, besides their families.
