434	GEN 18:9	“Where is your wife Sarah?” they asked him. “Over there, inside the tent,” he replied.
450	GEN 18:25	No, you can't do something like that! You can't kill the good with the wicked, otherwise you would be treating the good and the wicked in the same way. You can't do that! Isn't the Judge of all the earth going to do the right thing?”
453	GEN 18:28	“What if there are forty-five good people, just five less? Are you still going to wipe out the whole town just because there are five fewer people?” “I won't destroy it if I find forty-five,” the Lord replied.

455	GEN 18:30	“My Lord, please don't get angry with me,” Abraham went on. “Let me ask this—what if only thirty were found?” “I won't do it if I find thirty,” the Lord replied.
456	GEN 18:31	“I admit I've been very bold to speak to my Lord like this,” Abraham said. “What if only twenty are found there?” “I won't do it for the sake of the twenty,” the Lord replied.
457	GEN 18:32	“Please don't get angry with me, my Lord,” Abraham said. “Just let me ask one more thing. What if only ten are found there?” “I won't destroy it for the sake of the ten,” the Lord replied.

703	GEN 26:10	“Why would you do this to us?” Abimelech asked. “One of the men here might have slept with your wife, and you would have made us all guilty!”
720	GEN 26:27	“Why have you come to see me?” Isaac asked them. “Previously you hated me and told me to leave!”
746	GEN 27:18	He went in to see his father, and called out, “My father, I'm here.” “Which son are you?” Isaac asked.
748	GEN 27:20	“How did you find an animal so fast, my son?” Isaac asked. “Because the Lord your God sent it my way,” Jacob replied.
752	GEN 27:24	“It's really you, my son Esau?” he asked again. “Yes, it's me,” Jacob replied.
760	GEN 27:32	“Who are you?” Isaac asked him. “I'm your son, your firstborn son, Esau,” he replied.
764	GEN 27:36	“Isn't he well named—Jacob the deceiver!” said Esau. “He's deceived me twice. First he took my birthright, and now he's stolen my blessing! Haven't you kept a blessing for me?”
765	GEN 27:37	Isaac replied to Esau. “I have made him ruler over you, and have said that all his relatives will be his servants. I have declared that he will be well supplied with grain and new wine. So what is left that I can do for you, my son?”
766	GEN 27:38	“Do you only have one blessing, my father?” Esau asked. “Please bless me too!” Then Esau began to cry very loudly.
773	GEN 27:45	Once he's cooled down and forgets what you did to him, I'll send for you to come back. Why should I lose both of you in a single day?”

802	GEN 29:6	“How is he?” he asked. “He's well,” they replied. “Look! In fact here's his daughter Rachel coming with the sheep right now.”
803	GEN 29:7	“Look, there's still plenty of daylight left,” said Jacob. “It's too early to round up the sheep yet. Why not let them drink so they can go back to grazing?”
811	GEN 29:15	One day Laban said to him, “You're my relative so you shouldn't be working for me for nothing! Tell me, what should I pay you?”
821	GEN 29:25	When morning came, he saw it was Leah! He went to Laban and asked angrily, “What have you done to me? It was for Rachel that I worked for you! Why have you deceived me?”
833	GEN 30:2	Jacob became angry with Rachel and told her, “Am I God? Do you think I'm the one stopping you having children?”
846	GEN 30:15	“Aren't you satisfied with stealing my husband?” Leah replied. “Are you going to take my son's mandrakes too?” “Fine, he can sleep with you tonight if you give me some mandrakes in return,” Rachel responded.
861	GEN 30:30	You hardly had anything before I arrived, but now you have so much! The Lord has blessed you through what I've done. When am I going to be able to provide for my own family?”
862	GEN 30:31	“Well, what do you propose I give you?” Laban asked again. “You don't have to give me anything,” Jacob replied. “If you want to do something for me, then how about this: I'll go on looking after your flocks, making sure they're fed.
900	GEN 31:26	“Why did you deceive me like this?” Laban asked Jacob. “You carried off my daughters as if they were some prisoners captured by the sword!
904	GEN 31:30	Clearly you wanted to leave and go back to your family home, but why did you have to steal my idols?”
956	GEN 32:28	“What's your name?” the man asked. “Jacob,” he replied.
958	GEN 32:30	“Please tell me your name,” Jacob asked. “Why do you ask me my name?” the man replied. Then he blessed Jacob there.
966	GEN 33:5	Then Esau looked around at the women and children. “Who are these people with you?” he asked. “They are the children God graciously gave your servant,” Jacob replied.
969	GEN 33:8	“What were all the livestock for that I met on the way?” Esau asked. “They're a gift to you my lord so you'd treat me well,” Jacob answered.
1012	GEN 34:31	But they replied, “Should we have let him treat our sister like a prostitute?”
1092	GEN 37:8	“Do you really think you're going to be our king?” they asked. “Do you honestly believe you're going to rule over us?” They hated him even more because of his dream and how he described it.
1094	GEN 37:10	He also told his father as well as his brothers, and his father told him off, saying, “What's this dream that you've had? Are we—I and your mother and brothers—really going to come and bow down to the ground before you?”

1136	GEN 38:16	He went over to her at the side of the road and said, “I want to sleep with you.” He didn't know she was his daughter-in-law. “What will you give me if I let you sleep with me?” she asked.
1137	GEN 38:17	“I'll send you a young goat from my flock,” he replied. “What guarantee will you give me to make sure you'll send it?” she asked.
1138	GEN 38:18	“What guarantee do I have to give you?” he asked. “Your signet seal and its cord, and your walking stick that you're holding,” she replied. He handed them over to her. He slept with her and she became pregnant.
1141	GEN 38:21	Hirah asked the men there, “Where's the cult prostitute that sits by the entrance road to Enaim?” “There's no cult prostitute here,” they answered.
1145	GEN 38:25	As she was brought out, she sent a message to her father-in-law, saying, “I'm pregnant by the man who owns these things.” Then she added, “Please look carefully at this signet seal and its cord and walking stick. Who do they belong to?”

1159	GEN 39:9	no one in this house has more authority than me! He hasn't held back anything from me except you, because you are his wife. So how could I do such an evil thing as this, and sin against God?”

1281	GEN 42:28	He told his brothers, “My money's been returned to me. It's right here at the top of my sack!” They were horrified! Trembling with fear they asked each other, “What is this that God's done to us?”

1320	GEN 43:29	Then Joseph looked over at his brother Benjamin, the son of his own mother. “Is this your youngest brother that you told me about?” he asked. “God be gracious to you, my son,” he said.
1332	GEN 44:7	“My lord, what are you saying?” they replied. “We your servants wouldn't do anything like that!
1340	GEN 44:15	“Why did you do this?” Joseph asked. “Don't you know a man like me can find out things through divination?”
1341	GEN 44:16	“My lord, what can we say?” Judah replied. “How can we explain this to you? In what way can we prove our innocence? God has exposed the guilt of your servants. My lord, we are your slaves—all of us, including the one who was found with the cup.”
1362	GEN 45:3	“I'm Joseph!” he announced to his brothers. “Is my father still alive?” They couldn't answer him as they were so surprised to see him face to face.
