1And Jehovah had saidH559 to AbramH87, Go out of thy landH776, and from thy kindredH4138, and from thy father's houseH1004, to the landH776 that I will shew thee.

2And I will makeH6213 of thee a greatH1419 nationH1471, and blessH1288 thee, and makeH6213 thy nameH8034 greatH1419; and thou shalt beH1961 a blessingH1293.

3And I will blessH1288 them that blessH1288 thee, and curseH7043 him that curseth thee; and in thee shall all familiesH4940 of the earthH127 be blessedH1288.
