Genesis 11:26-32

26Terah lived seventy years, and 1fathered Abram, Nahor, and Haran.

27Now these are the records of the generations of Terah. Terah fathered Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and 2Haran fathered 3Lot. 28Haran died 4during the lifetime of his father Terah in the land of his birth, in 5Ur of the Chaldeans. 29Abram and 6Nahor took wives for themselves. The name of Abram’s wife was 7Sarai, and the name of Nahor’s wife was 8Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah 9and Iscah. 3010Sarai was unable to conceive; she did not have a child.

31Now Terah took his son Abram, and Lot the son of Haran, his grandson, and his daughter-in-law Sarai, his son Abram’s wife, and they departed 11together from 12Ur of the Chaldeans to go to the land of Canaan; and they went as far as Haran and 13settled there. 32The days of Terah were 205 years; and Terah died in Haran.
