1NOW [in Haran] the Lord said to Abram, Go for yourself [for your own advantage] away from your country, from your relatives and your father's house, to the land that I will show you.
2And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you [with abundant increase of favors] and make your name famous {and} distinguished, and you will be a blessing [dispensing good to others].
3And I will bless those who bless you [who confer prosperity or happiness upon you] and curse him who curses {or} uses insolent language toward you; in you will all the families {and} kindred of the earth be blessed [and by you they will bless themselves].
4So Abram departed, as the Lord had directed him; and Lot [his nephew] went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he left Haran.
5Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their possessions that they had gathered, and the persons [servants] that they had acquired in Haran, and they went forth to go to the land of Canaan. When they came to the land of Canaan,
6Abram passed through the land to the locality of Shechem, to the oak {or} terebinth tree of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.
7Then the Lord appeared to Abram and said, I will give this land to your posterity. So Abram built an altar there to the Lord, Who had appeared to him.
8From there he pulled up [his tent pegs] {and} departed to the mountain on the east of Bethel and pitched his tent, with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east; and there he built an altar to the Lord and called upon the name of the Lord.
9Abram journeyed on, still going toward the South (the Negeb).
10Now there was a famine in the land, and Abram went down into Egypt to live temporarily, for the famine in the land was oppressive (intense and grievous).
11And when he was about to enter into Egypt, he said to Sarai his wife, I know that you are beautiful to behold.
12So when the Egyptians see you, they will say, This is his wife; and they will kill me, but they will let you live.
13Say, I beg of you, that you are my sister, so that it may go well with me for your sake and my life will be spared because of you.
14And when Abram came into Egypt, the Egyptians saw that the woman was very beautiful.
15The princes of Pharaoh also saw her and commended her to Pharaoh, and she was taken into Pharaoh's house [harem].
16And he treated Abram well for her sake; he acquired sheep, oxen, he-donkeys, menservants, maidservants, she-donkeys, and camels.
17But the Lord scourged Pharaoh and his household with serious plagues because of Sarai, Abram's wife.
18And Pharaoh called Abram and said, What is this that you have done to me? Why did you not tell me that she was your wife?
19Why did you say, She is my sister, so that I took her to be my wife? Now then, here is your wife; take her and get away [from here]!
20And Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him, and they brought him on his way with his wife and all that he had.
