Genesis 3:1-11:32 And the serpent was more crafty than any animal of the field which Jehovah Elohim had made. And it said to the woman, Is it even so, that God has said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

Darby⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And the serpent was more crafty than any animal of the field which Jehovah Elohim had made. And it said to the woman, Is it even so, that God has said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? ² And the woman said to the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden; ³ but of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden, God has said, Ye shall not eat of it, and ye shall not touch it, lest ye die. ⁴ And the serpent said to the woman, Ye will not certainly die; ⁵ but God knows that in the day ye eat of it, your eyes will be opened, and ye will be as God, knowing good and evil. ⁶ And the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a pleasure for the eyes, and the tree was to be desired to give intelligence; and she took of its fruit, and ate, and gave also to her husband with her, and he ate. ⁷ And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they sewed fig-leaves together, and made themselves aprons. ⁸ And they heard the voice of Jehovah Elohim, walking in the garden in the cool of the day. And Man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Jehovah Elohim, in the midst of the trees of the garden. ⁹ And Jehovah Elohim called to Man, and said to him, Where art thou? ¹⁰ And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I feared, because I am naked; and I hid myself. ¹¹ And he said, Who told thee that thou art naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee not to eat? ¹² And Man said, The woman, whom thou hast given [to be] with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate. ¹³ And Jehovah Elohim said to the woman, What is this thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent deceived me, and I ate. ¹⁴ And Jehovah Elohim said to the serpent, Because thou hast done this, be thou cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field. On thy belly shalt thou go, and eat dust all the days of thy life. ¹⁵ And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; he shall crush thy head, and thou shalt crush his heel. ¹⁶ To the woman he said, I will greatly increase thy travail and thy pregnancy; with pain thou shalt bear children; and to thy husband shall be thy desire, and he shall rule over thee. ¹⁷ And to Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened to the voice of thy wife, and eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed be the ground on thy account; with toil shalt thou eat [of] it all the days of thy life; ¹⁸ and thorns and thistles shall it yield thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field. ¹⁹ In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, until thou return to the ground: for out of it wast thou taken. For dust thou art; and unto dust shalt thou return. ²⁰ And Man called his wife`s name Eve; because she is the mother of all living. ²¹ And Jehovah Elohim made Adam and his wife coats of skin, and clothed them. ²² And Jehovah Elohim said, Behold, Man is become as one of us, to know good and evil. And now, lest he stretch out his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever ...! ²³ Therefore Jehovah Elohim sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken. ²⁴ And he drove out Man; and he set the Cherubim, and the flame of the flashing sword, toward the east of the garden of Eden, to guard the way to the tree of life. ⁴ ¹ And Man knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bore Cain, and said, I have acquired a man with Jehovah. ² And she further bore his brother Abel. And Abel was a shepherd, but Cain was a husbandman. ³ And in process of time it came to pass that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering to Jehovah. ⁴ And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock, and of their fat. And Jehovah looked upon Abel, and on his offering; ⁵ and upon Cain, and on his offering, he did not look. And Cain was very angry, and his countenance fell. ⁶ And Jehovah said to Cain, Why art thou angry, and why is thy countenance fallen? ⁷ If thou doest well, will not [thy countenance] look up [with confidence]? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door; and unto thee [shall be] his desire, and thou shalt rule over him. ⁸ And Cain spoke to Abel his brother, and it came to pass when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him. ⁹ And Jehovah said to Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: am I my brother`s keeper? ¹⁰ And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother`s blood is crying to me from the ground. ¹¹ And now be thou cursed from the ground, which hath opened its mouth to receive thy brother`s blood from thy hand. ¹² When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield thee its strength; a wanderer and fugitive shalt thou be on the earth. ¹³ And Cain said to Jehovah, My punishment is too great to be borne. ¹⁴ Behold, thou hast driven me this day from the face of the ground, and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a wanderer and fugitive on the earth; and it will come to pass, [that] every one who finds me will slay me. ¹⁵ And Jehovah said to him, Therefore, whoever slayeth Cain, it shall be revenged sevenfold. And Jehovah set a mark on Cain, lest any finding him should smite him. ¹⁶ And Cain went out from the presence of Jehovah, and dwelt in the land of Nod, toward the east of Eden. ¹⁷ And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch. And he built a city; and he called the name of the city after the name of his son Enoch. ¹⁸ And to Enoch was born Irad; and Irad begot Mehujael; and Mehujael begot Methushael; and Methushael begot Lemech. ¹⁹ And Lemech took two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the second, Zillah. ²⁰ And Adah bore Jabal: he was the father of those who dwell in tents, and [breed] cattle. ²¹ And his brother`s name was Jubal: he was the father of those who handle the harp and pipe. ²² And Zillah, she also bore Tubal-Cain, the forger of every kind of tool of brass and iron. And the sister of Tubal-Cain was Naamah. ²³ And Lemech said to his wives: Adah and Zillah, hear my voice, Ye wives of Lemech, listen to my speech. For I have slain a man for my wound, and a youth for my bruise. ²⁴ If Cain shall be avenged seven-fold; Lemech seventy and seven fold. ²⁵ And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son, and called his name Seth: ... For God has appointed me another seed instead of Abel, because Cain has slain him. ²⁶ And to Seth, to him also was born a son; and he called his name Enosh. Then people began to call on the name of Jehovah. ⁵ ¹ This is the book of Adam`s generations. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him. ² Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created. ³ And Adam lived a hundred and thirty years, and begot [a son] in his likeness, after his image, and called his name Seth. ⁴ And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years; and he begot sons and daughters. ⁵ And all the days of Adam that he lived were nine hundred and thirty years; and he died. ⁶ And Seth lived a hundred and five years, and begot Enosh. ⁷ And Seth lived after he had begotten Enosh eight hundred and seven years, and begot sons and daughters. ⁸ And all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years; and he died. ⁹ And Enosh lived ninety years, and begot Cainan. ¹⁰ And Enosh lived after he had begotten Cainan eight hundred and fifteen years, and begot sons and daughters. ¹¹ And all the days of Enosh were nine hundred and five years; and he died. ¹² And Cainan lived seventy years, and begot Mahalaleel. ¹³ And Cainan lived after he had begotten Mahalaleel eight hundred and forty years, and begot sons and daughters. ¹⁴ And all the days of Cainan were nine hundred and ten years; and he died. ¹⁵ And Mahalaleel lived sixty-five years, and begot Jared. ¹⁶ And Mahalaleel lived after he had begotten Jared eight hundred and thirty years, and begot sons and daughters. ¹⁷ And all the days of Mahalaleel were eight hundred and ninety-five years; and he died. ¹⁸ And Jared lived a hundred and sixty-two years, and begot Enoch. ¹⁹ And Jared lived after he had begotten Enoch eight hundred years, and begot sons and daughters. ²⁰ And all the days of Jared were nine hundred and sixty-two years; and he died. ²¹ And Enoch lived sixty-five years, and begot Methushelah. ²² And Enoch walked with God after he had begotten Methushelah three hundred years, and begot sons and daughters. ²³ And all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years. ²⁴ And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him. ²⁵ And Methushelah lived a hundred and eighty-seven years, and begot Lemech. ²⁶ And Methushelah lived after he had begotten Lemech seven hundred and eighty-two years, and begot sons and daughters. ²⁷ And all the days of Methushelah were nine hundred and sixty-nine years; and he died. ²⁸ And Lemech lived a hundred and eighty-two years, and begot a son. ²⁹ And he called his name Noah, saying, This [one] shall comfort us concerning our work and concerning the toil of our hands, because of the ground which Jehovah has cursed. ³⁰ And Lemech lived after he had begotten Noah five hundred and ninety-five years, and begot sons and daughters. ³¹ And all the days of Lemech were seven hundred and seventy-seven years; and he died. ³² And Noah was five hundred years old, and Noah begot Shem, Ham, and Japheth. ⁶ ¹ And it came to pass when mankind began to multiply on the earth, and daughters were born to them, ² that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair, and took themselves wives of all that they chose. ³ And Jehovah said, My Spirit shall not always plead with Man; for he indeed is flesh; but his days shall be a hundred and twenty years. ⁴ In those days were the giants on the earth, and also afterwards, when the sons of God had come in to the daughters of men, and they had borne [children] to them; these were the heroes, who of old were men of renown. ⁵ And Jehovah saw that the wickedness of Man was great on the earth, and every imagination of the thoughts of his heart only evil continually. ⁶ And Jehovah repented that he had made Man on the earth, and it grieved him in his heart. ⁷ And Jehovah said, I will destroy Man, whom I have created, from the earth -- from man to cattle, to creeping things, and to fowl of the heavens; for I repent that I have made them. ⁸ But Noah found favour in the eyes of Jehovah. ⁹ This is the history of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect amongst his generations: Noah walked with God. ¹⁰ And Noah begot three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. ¹¹ And the earth was corrupt before God, and the earth was full of violence. ¹² And God looked upon the earth, and behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted its way on the earth. ¹³ And God said to Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me, for the earth is full of violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth. ¹⁴ Make thyself an ark of gopher wood: [with] cells shalt thou make the ark; and pitch it inside and outside with pitch. ¹⁵ And thus shalt thou make it: let the length of the ark be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits. ¹⁶ A light shalt thou make to the ark; and to a cubit high shalt thou finish it above. And the door of the ark shalt thou set in its side: [with] a lower, second, and third [story] shalt thou make it. ¹⁷ For I, behold, I bring a flood of waters on the earth, to destroy all flesh under the heavens in which is the breath of life: everything that is on the earth shall expire. ¹⁸ But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt go into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons` wives with thee. ¹⁹ And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every [sort] shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep [them] alive with thee: they shall be male and female. ²⁰ Of fowl after their kind, and of the cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, two of each shall go in to thee, to keep [them] alive. ²¹ And take thou of all food that is eaten, and gather [it] to thee, that it may be for food for thee and for them. ²² And Noah did it; according to all that God had commanded him, so did he. ⁷ ¹ And Jehovah said to Noah, Go into the ark, thou and all thy house; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation. ² Of all clean beasts thou shalt take to thee by sevens, a male and its female; but of the beasts that are not clean two, a male and its female. ³ Also of the fowl of the heavens by sevens, male and female; to keep seed alive on the face of all the earth. ⁴ For in yet seven days I will cause it to rain on the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living being which I have made will I destroy from the ground. ⁵ And Noah did according to all that Jehovah had commanded him. ⁶ And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was on the earth. ⁷ And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons` wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood. ⁸ Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowl, and of everything that creeps on the ground, ⁹ there came two and two unto Noah into the ark, male and female, as God had commanded Noah. ¹⁰ And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood were on the earth. ¹¹ In the six hundredth year of Noah`s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that same day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. ¹² And the pour of rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights. ¹³ On the same day went Noah, and Shem and Ham and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah`s wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark; ¹⁴ they, and every beast after its kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth after its kind, and all fowl after its kind -- every bird of every wing. ¹⁵ And they went to Noah, into the ark, two and two of all flesh, in which was the breath of life. ¹⁶ And they that came, came male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him. And Jehovah shut him in. ¹⁷ And the flood was forty days on the earth. And the waters increased, and bore up the ark; and it was lifted up above the earth. ¹⁸ And the waters prevailed and increased greatly on the earth; and the ark went on the face of the waters. ¹⁹ And the waters prevailed exceedingly on the earth; and all the high mountains that are under all the heavens were covered. ²⁰ Fifteen cubits upward the waters prevailed; and the mountains were covered. ²¹ And all flesh that moved on the earth expired, fowl as well as cattle, and beasts, and all crawling things which crawl on the earth, and all mankind: ²² everything which had in its nostrils the breath of life, of all that was on the dry [land], died. ²³ And every living being was destroyed that was on the ground, both man, and cattle, and creeping things, and fowl of the heavens; and they were destroyed from the earth. And Noah alone remained, and what was with him in the ark. ²⁴ And the waters prevailed on the earth a hundred and fifty days. ⁸ ¹ And God remembered Noah, and all the animals, and all the cattle that were with him in the ark; and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subsided. ² And the fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were closed, and the pour of rain from heaven was stopped. ³ And the waters retired from the earth, continually retiring; and in the course of a hundred and fifty days the waters abated. ⁴ And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat. ⁵ And the waters abated continually until the tenth month: in the tenth [month], on the first of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen. ⁶ And it came to pass at the end of forty days that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made. ⁷ And he sent out the raven, which went forth going to and fro, until the waters were dried from the earth. ⁸ And he sent out the dove from him, to see if the waters had become low on the ground. ⁹ But the dove found no resting-place for the sole of her foot, and returned to him into the ark; for the waters were on the whole earth; and he put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her to him into the ark. ¹⁰ And he waited yet other seven days, and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark. ¹¹ And the dove came to him at eventide; and behold, in her beak was an olive-leaf plucked off; and Noah knew that the waters had become low on the earth. ¹² And he waited yet other seven days, and sent forth the dove; but she returned no more to him. ¹³ And it came to pass in the six hundred and first year, in the first [month], on the first of the month, that the waters were dried up from the earth. And Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and behold, the surface of the ground was dried. ¹⁴ And in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry. ¹⁵ And God spoke to Noah, saying, ¹⁶ Go out of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons` wives with thee. ¹⁷ Bring forth with thee every animal which is with thee, of all flesh, fowl as well as cattle, and all the creeping things which creep on the earth, that they may swarm on the earth, and may be fruitful and multiply on the earth. ¹⁸ And Noah went out, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons` wives with him. ¹⁹ All the animals, all the creeping things, and all the fowl -- everything that moves on the earth, after their kinds, went out of the ark. ²⁰ And Noah built an altar to Jehovah; and took of every clean animal, and of all clean fowl, and offered up burnt-offerings on the altar. ²¹ And Jehovah smelled the sweet odour. And Jehovah said in his heart, I will no more henceforth curse the ground on account of Man, for the thought of Man`s heart is evil from his youth; and I will no more smite every living thing, as I have done. ²² Henceforth, all the days of the earth, seed [time] and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, shall not cease. ⁹ ¹ And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth. ² And let the fear of you and the dread of you be upon every animal of the earth, and upon all fowl of the heavens: upon all that moveth [on] the ground; and upon all the fishes of the sea: into your hand are they delivered. ³ Every moving thing that liveth shall be food for you: as the green herb I give you everything. ⁴ Only, the flesh with its life, its blood, ye shall not eat. ⁵ And indeed your blood, [the blood] of your lives, will I require: at the hand of every animal will I require it, and at the hand of Man, at the hand of each [the blood] of his brother, will I require the life of Man. ⁶ Whoso sheddeth Man`s blood, by Man shall his blood be shed; for in the image of God he hath made Man. ⁷ And ye, be fruitful and multiply: swarm on the earth, and multiply on it. ⁸ And God spoke to Noah, and to his sons with him, saying, ⁹ And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you; ¹⁰ and with every living soul which is with you, fowl as well as cattle, and all the animals of the earth with you, of all that has gone out of the ark -- every animal of the earth. ¹¹ And I establish my covenant with you, neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood, and henceforth there shall be no flood to destroy the earth. ¹² And God said, This is the sign of the covenant that I set between me and you and every living soul that is with you, for everlasting generations: ¹³ I set my bow in the clouds, and it shall be for a sign of the covenant between me and the earth. ¹⁴ And it shall come to pass when I bring clouds over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud, ¹⁵ and I will remember my covenant which is between me and you and every living soul of all flesh; and the waters shall not henceforth become a flood to destroy all flesh. ¹⁶ And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living soul of all flesh that is upon the earth. ¹⁷ And God said to Noah, This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth. ¹⁸ And the sons of Noah who went out of the ark were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth. And Ham is the father of Canaan. ¹⁹ These three are the sons of Noah; and from these was [the population of] the whole earth spread abroad. ²⁰ And Noah began [to be] a husbandman, and planted a vineyard. ²¹ And he drank of the wine, and was drunken, and he uncovered himself in his tent. ²² And Ham the father of Canaan saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren outside. ²³ And Shem and Japheth took the upper garment and both laid [it] upon their shoulders, and went backwards, and covered the nakedness of their father. And their faces were turned away, that they saw not their father`s nakedness. ²⁴ And Noah awoke from his wine, and learned what his youngest son had done to him. ²⁵ And he said, Cursed be Canaan; Let him be a bondman of bondmen to his brethren. ²⁶ And he said, Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Shem, And let Canaan be his bondman. ²⁷ Let God enlarge Japheth, and let him dwell in the tents of Shem, And let Canaan be his bondman. ²⁸ And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years. ²⁹ And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years; and he died. ¹⁰ ¹ And these are the generations of the sons of Noah: Shem, Ham, and Japheth; and to them were sons born after the flood. ² The sons of Japheth: Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras. ³ And the sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah. ⁴ And the sons of Javan: Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim. ⁵ From these came the distribution of the isles of the nations, according to their lands, every one after his tongue, after their families, in their nations. ⁶ And the sons of Ham: Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan. ⁷ And the sons of Cush: Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtecha. And the sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan. ⁸ And Cush begot Nimrod: he began to be mighty on the earth. ⁹ He was a mighty hunter before Jehovah; therefore it is said, As Nimrod, the mighty hunter before Jehovah! ¹⁰ And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar. ¹¹ From that land went out Asshur, and built Nineveh, and Rehoboth-Ir, and Calah, ¹² and Resen, between Nineveh and Calah: this is the great city. ¹³ -- And Mizraim begot the Ludim, and the Anamim, and the Lehabim, and the Naphtuhim, ¹⁴ and the Pathrusim, and the Casluhim, out of whom came the Philistines, and the Caphtorim. ¹⁵ -- And Canaan begot Sidon, his firstborn, and Heth, ¹⁶ and the Jebusite, and the Amorite, and the Girgashite, ¹⁷ and the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite, ¹⁸ and the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite. And afterwards the families of the Canaanites spread themselves abroad. ¹⁹ And the border of the Canaanite was from Sidon, as one goes to Gerar, up to Gazah; as one goes to Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, up to Lesha. ²⁰ These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, in their nations. ²¹ And to Shem -- to him also were [sons] born; he is the father of all the sons of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder. ²² The sons of Shem: Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram. ²³ And the sons of Aram: Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash. ²⁴ -- And Arphaxad begot Shelah; and Shelah begot Eber. ²⁵ And to Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg, for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother`s name was Joktan. ²⁶ And Joktan begot Almodad, and Sheleph, and Hazarmaveth, and Jerah, ²⁷ and Hadoram, and Uzal, and Diklah, ²⁸ and Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba, ²⁹ and Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab: all these were sons of Joktan. ³⁰ And their dwelling was from Mesha, as one goes to Sephar, the eastern mountain. ³¹ These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, after their nations. ³² These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations. And from these came the distribution of the nations on the earth after the flood. ¹¹ ¹ And the whole earth had one language, and the same words. ² And it came to pass as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and dwelt there. ³ And they said one to another, Come on, let us make bricks, and burn [them] thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and they had asphalt for mortar. ⁴ And they said, Come on, let us build ourselves a city and a tower, the top of which [may reach] to the heavens; and let us make ourselves a name, lest we be scattered over the face of the whole earth. ⁵ And Jehovah came down to see the city and the tower which the children of men built. ⁶ And Jehovah said, Behold, the people is one, and have all one language; and this have they begun to do. And now will they be hindered in nothing that they meditate doing. ⁷ Come, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another`s speech. ⁸ And Jehovah scattered them thence over the face of the whole earth. And they left off building the city. ⁹ Therefore was its name called Babel; because Jehovah there confounded the language of the whole earth. And Jehovah scattered them thence over the face of the whole earth. ¹⁰ These are the generations of Shem. Shem was a hundred years old, and begot Arphaxad two years after the flood. ¹¹ And Shem lived after he had begotten Arphaxad five hundred years, and begot sons and daughters. ¹² And Arphaxad lived thirty-five years, and begot Shelah. ¹³ And Arphaxad lived after he had begotten Shelah four hundred and three years, and begot sons and daughters. ¹⁴ And Shelah lived thirty years, and begot Eber. ¹⁵ And Shelah lived after he had begotten Eber four hundred and three years, and begot sons and daughters. ¹⁶ And Eber lived thirty-four years, and begot Peleg. ¹⁷ And Eber lived after he had begotten Peleg four hundred and thirty years, and begot sons and daughters. ¹⁸ And Peleg lived thirty years, and begot Reu. ¹⁹ And Peleg lived after he had begotten Reu two hundred and nine years, and begot sons and daughters. ²⁰ And Reu lived thirty-two years, and begot Serug. ²¹ And Reu lived after he had begotten Serug two hundred and seven years, and begot sons and daughters. ²² And Serug lived thirty years, and begot Nahor. ²³ And Serug lived after he had begotten Nahor two hundred years, and begot sons and daughters. ²⁴ And Nahor lived twenty-nine years, and begot Terah. ²⁵ And Nahor lived after he had begotten Terah a hundred and nineteen years, and begot sons and daughters. ²⁶ And Terah lived seventy years, and begot Abram, Nahor, and Haran. ²⁷ And these are the generations of Terah: Terah begot Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran begot Lot. ²⁸ And Haran died before the face of his father Terah in the land of his nativity at Ur of the Chaldeans. ²⁹ And Abram and Nahor took wives: the name of Abram`s wife was Sarai; and the name of Nahor`s wife, Milcah, a daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah and the father of Iscah. ³⁰ And Sarai was barren: she had no child. ³¹ And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran his son`s son, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram`s wife; and they went forth together out of Ur of the Chaldeans, to go into the land of Canaan, and came as far as Haran, and dwelt there. ³² And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years; and Terah died in Haran.
