Genesis 11:24-32

24Nahor lived 29 years and fathered Terah.

25After he fathered Terah, Nahor lived 119 years and fathered other sons and daughters.

26Terah lived 70 years and fathered Abram, Nahor, and Haran.

27These are the family records of Terah. Terah fathered Abram, Nahor, and Haran, and Haran fathered Lot.

28Haran died in his native land, in Ur of the Chaldeans, during his father Terah’s lifetime.

29Abram and Nahor took wives: Abram’s wife was named Sarai, and Nahor’s wife was named Milcah. She was the daughter of Haran, the father of both Milcah and Iscah.

30Sarai was unable to conceive; she did not have a child.

31Terah took his son Abram, his grandson Lot (Haran’s son), and his daughter-in-law Sarai, his son Abram’s wife, and they set out together from Ur of the Chaldeans to go to the land of Canaan. But when they came to Haran, they settled there.

32Terah lived 205 years and died in Haran.
