Page 2 / 87 (Gen 11:4–Gen 18:20)
And they said, “Come, let’s build ourselves a city and a tower with its top in the sky. Let’s make a name for ourselves; otherwise, we will be scattered throughout the earth.”
The LORD said, “If they have begun to do this as one people all having the same language, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them.
The LORD said to Abram:
Go from your land,
your relatives,
and your father’s house
to the land that I will show you.
The LORD appeared to Abram and said, “To your offspring[fn] I will give this land.” So he built an altar there to the LORD who had appeared to him.
When he was about to enter Egypt, he said to his wife, Sarai, “Look, I know what a beautiful woman you are.
“When the Egyptians see you, they will say, ‘This is his wife.’ They will kill me but let you live.
“Please say you’re my sister so it will go well for me because of you, and my life will be spared on your account.”
So Pharaoh sent for Abram and said, “What have you done to me? Why didn’t you tell me she was your wife?
“Why did you say, ‘She’s my sister,’ so that I took her as my wife? Now, here is your wife. Take her and go! ”
So Abram said to Lot, “Please, let’s not have quarreling between you and me, or between your herdsmen and my herdsmen, since we are relatives.
After Lot had separated from him, the LORD said to Abram, “Look from the place where you are. Look north and south, east and west,
Then the king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the people, but take the possessions for yourself.”
But Abram said to the king of Sodom, “I have raised my hand in an oath to the LORD, God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth,
“that I will not take a thread or sandal strap or anything that belongs to you, so you can never say, ‘I made Abram rich.’
After these events, the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision:
Do not be afraid, Abram.
I am your shield;
your reward will be very great.
But Abram said, “Lord GOD, what can you give me, since I am childless and the heir of my house is Eliezer of Damascus? ”[fn]
Abram continued, “Look, you have given me no offspring, so a slave born in[fn] my house will be my heir.”
Now the word of the LORD came to him: “This one will not be your heir; instead, one who comes from your own body[fn] will be your heir.”
He took him outside and said, “Look at the sky and count the stars, if you are able to count them.” Then he said to him, “Your offspring will be that numerous.”
He also said to him, “I am the LORD who brought you from Ur of the Chaldeans to give you this land to possess.”
He said to him, “Bring me a three-year-old cow, a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram, a turtledove, and a young pigeon.”
Then the LORD said to Abram, “Know this for certain: Your offspring will be resident aliens for four hundred years in a land that does not belong to them and will be enslaved and oppressed.[fn]
On that day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, “I give this land to your offspring, from the Brook of Egypt to the great river, the Euphrates River:
Sarai said to Abram, “Since the LORD has prevented me from bearing children, go to my slave; perhaps through her I can build a family.” And Abram agreed to what Sarai said.
Abram replied to Sarai, “Here, your slave is in your power; do whatever you want with her.” Then Sarai mistreated her so much that she ran away from her.
He said, “Hagar, slave of Sarai, where have you come from and where are you going? ”
She replied, “I’m running away from my mistress Sarai.”
The angel of the LORD said to her, “Go back to your mistress and submit to her authority.”
The angel of the LORD said to her, “I will greatly multiply your offspring, and they will be too many to count.”
The angel of the LORD said to her, “You have conceived and will have a son. You will name him Ishmael,[fn] for the LORD has heard your cry of affliction.
When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to him, saying, “I am God Almighty. Live[fn] in my presence and be blameless.
God also said to Abraham, “As for you, you and your offspring after you throughout their generations are to keep my covenant.
God said to Abraham, “As for your wife Sarai, do not call her Sarai, for Sarah[fn] will be her name.
Abraham fell facedown. Then he laughed and said to himself, “Can a child be born to a hundred-year-old man? Can Sarah, a ninety-year-old woman, give birth? ”
But God said, “No. Your wife Sarah will bear you a son, and you will name him Isaac.[fn] I will confirm my covenant with him as a permanent covenant for his future offspring.
and said, “My lord, if I have found favor with you, please do not go on past your servant.
“I will bring a bit of bread so that you may strengthen yourselves. This is why you have passed your servant’s way. Later, you can continue on.”
“Yes,” they replied, “do as you have said.”
The LORD said, “I will certainly come back to you in about a year’s time, and your wife Sarah will have a son! ” Now Sarah was listening at the entrance of the tent behind him.
So she laughed to herself: “After I am worn out and my lord is old, will I have delight? ”
But the LORD asked Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh, saying, ‘Can I really have a baby when I’m old? ’
Sarah denied it. “I did not laugh,” she said, because she was afraid.
But he replied, “No, you did laugh.”
