5AbramH87 tookH3947 SaraiH8297 his wifeH802 and LotH3876 his nephewH1121H251, and allH3605 their 1possessionsH7399 whichH834 they had accumulatedH7408, and 2the 3personsH5315 whichH834 they had acquiredH6213 in HaranH2771, and they 4setH3318H1980 out for the landH776 of CanaanH3667; 5thus they cameH935 to the landH776 of CanaanH3667.
6AbramH87 passedH5674 throughH5674 the landH776 as farH5704 as the siteH4725 of 6ShechemH7927, to the 7oakH436 of MorehH4176. Now the CanaaniteH3669 was thenH227 in the landH776.
7The LordH3068 8appearedH7200 to AbramH87 and saidH559, “9To your 10descendantsH2233 I will giveH5414 thisH2088 landH776.” So he builtH1129 11an altarH4196 thereH8033 to the LordH3068 who had appearedH7200 to him.
