39 | GEN 2:8 | The Lord planted a garden in Eden, in the east. There he put the man Adam he had created. |
41 | GEN 2:10 | A river flowed out from Eden to water the garden. From there it split into four branches. |
45 | GEN 2:14 | The third branch was called the Tigris and it flowed east of the city of Asshur. The fourth branch was called the Euphrates. |
46 | GEN 2:15 | The Lord God put the man in the Garden of Eden to cultivate it and care for it. |
56 | GEN 2:25 | Adam and his wife Eve were both naked, but they weren't embarrassed about it. |
57 | GEN 3:1 | The serpent was more cunning than any of the other wild animals that the Lord God had made. He asked Eve, “Did God really say that you can't eat fruit from every tree in the garden?” |
58 | GEN 3:2 | Eve replied to the serpent, “We can eat from the trees in the garden, but not the fruit from the tree in the middle of the garden. |
60 | GEN 3:4 | “You certainly won't die,” the serpent told Eve. |
62 | GEN 3:6 | Eve saw that the fruit of the tree appeared good to eat. It looked very attractive. She really wanted it so she could become wise. So she took some of its fruit and ate it, and she gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it too. |
64 | GEN 3:8 | Later they heard the Lord walking in the garden in the evening when the breeze was blowing. Adam and Eve went and hid out of sight of the Lord God among the trees of the garden. |
69 | GEN 3:13 | The Lord God asked Eve, “Why have you done this?” “The serpent tricked me, and so I ate it,” she replied. |
72 | GEN 3:16 | He told Eve, “I will make pregnancy much more difficult, and giving birth will be very painful. However, you will still desire your husband, but he will have control over you.” |
76 | GEN 3:20 | Adam named his wife Eve, because she was to be the mother of all human beings. |
77 | GEN 3:21 | The Lord God made Adam and Eve clothes from animal skins and dressed them. |
79 | GEN 3:23 | So the Lord God expelled them from the Garden of Eden. He sent Adam to cultivate the ground from which he'd been made. |
80 | GEN 3:24 | After he drove them out, the Lord God placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden angels and a sword that flashed in every direction. They were to prevent access to the tree of life. |
81 | GEN 4:1 | Adam slept with his wife Eve and she became pregnant. She gave birth to Cain, and said, “With the Lord's help I have made a man.” |
96 | GEN 4:16 | So Cain left the Lord's presence and went to live in a land called Nod, east of Eden. |
97 | GEN 4:17 | Cain slept with his wife and she became pregnant. She had a son named Enoch. At that time Cain was building a town, so he named it after his son Enoch. |
98 | GEN 4:18 | Enoch had a son named Irad. Irad was the father of Mehujael, Mehujael was the father of Methushael, and Methushael was the father of Lamech. |
106 | GEN 4:26 | Later Seth had a son named Enosh, because at that time people began to worship the Lord by name. |
112 | GEN 5:6 | When Seth was 105, he had Enosh. |
113 | GEN 5:7 | Seth lived another 807 years after Enosh was born, and had other sons and daughters. |
115 | GEN 5:9 | When Enosh was 90, he had Kenan. |
116 | GEN 5:10 | Enosh lived another 815 years after Kenan was born, and had other sons and daughters. |
117 | GEN 5:11 | Enosh lived a total of 905 years, and then he died. |
124 | GEN 5:18 | When Jared was 162, he had Enoch. |
125 | GEN 5:19 | After Enoch was born, Jared lived 800 years and had other sons and daughters. |
127 | GEN 5:21 | When Enoch was 65, he had Methuselah. |
128 | GEN 5:22 | He had a close relationship with God. After Methuselah was born, Enoch lived another 300 years and had other sons and daughters. |
129 | GEN 5:23 | Enoch lived a total of 365 years. |
130 | GEN 5:24 | Enoch had such a close relationship with God that he didn't die, he just wasn't there anymore, because God took him. |
155 | GEN 6:17 | I myself am going to flood the earth with water that will destroy everything that breathes, Every living thing everywhere on earth will die. |
181 | GEN 7:21 | Everything living on earth died—the birds, livestock, wild animals, all creatures that run along the ground, and all the people. |
182 | GEN 7:22 | Everything on land that breathed, died. |
209 | GEN 9:3 | Every living creature that moves will be food for you, as well as all the green plants. |
239 | GEN 10:4 | The sons of Javan: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim. |
245 | GEN 10:10 | His kingdom began in the cities of Babel, Erech, Akkad, and Calneh, all located in the land of Shinar. |
256 | GEN 10:21 | Shem, whose older brother was Japheth, also had sons. Shem was the forefather of all the sons of Eber. |
257 | GEN 10:22 | The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram. |
259 | GEN 10:24 | Arphaxad was the father of Shelah. Shelah was the father of Eber. |
260 | GEN 10:25 | Eber had two sons. One was named Peleg, because in his time the earth was divided; the name of his brother was Joktan. |
281 | GEN 11:14 | When Shelah was 30, he had Eber. |
282 | GEN 11:15 | Shelah lived another 403 years after Eber was born and had other sons and daughters. |
283 | GEN 11:16 | When Eber was 34, he had Peleg. |
284 | GEN 11:17 | Eber lived another 430 years after Peleg was born and had other sons and daughters. |
302 | GEN 12:3 | I will bless those who bless you; I will curse those who curse you. Everyone on earth will be blessed through you.” |
309 | GEN 12:10 | But the land had been hit by famine. So Abram continued on to Egypt, planning to live there because the famine was so bad. |
310 | GEN 12:11 | As he approached Egypt and was about to cross the border, he said to his wife Sarai, “Look, I know what a beautiful woman you are. |
311 | GEN 12:12 | When the Egyptians see you, they'll say, ‘She's his wife,’ and they'll kill me but not you! |
313 | GEN 12:14 | When Abram arrived in Egypt, the people there saw how beautiful Sarai was. |
320 | GEN 13:1 | So Abram left Egypt and went back into the Negev along with Sarai, Lot, and everyone with them, as well as all their possessions. |
329 | GEN 13:10 | Lot looked over the whole Jordan valley towards Zoar, and saw that it was well-watered, looking like the Garden of Eden, like the land of Egypt. (This was before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.) |
338 | GEN 14:1 | At that time Amraphel was king of Shinar, and he allied himself with Arioch, king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer, king of Elam, and Tidal, king of Goiim. |
342 | GEN 14:5 | In the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer invaded, along with the kings in his alliance. They defeated the Rephaites in Ashteroth-karnaim, the Zuzites in Ham, the Emites in Shaveh-kiriathaim, |
343 | GEN 14:6 | and the Horites in their hill country of Seir, all the way to El-paran, near the desert. |
344 | GEN 14:7 | Then they swung back through and attacked En-mishpat (otherwise known as Kadesh) and conquered the whole country belonging to the Amalekites, as well as the Amorites who lived in Hazazon-tamar. |
346 | GEN 14:9 | They fought Chedorlaomer, king of Elam, Tidal, king of Goiim, Amraphel, king of Shinar, and Arioch, king of Ellasar—four kings on one side against five on the other. |
350 | GEN 14:13 | But one of those captured escaped and went and told Abram the Hebrew what had happened. Abram was living by the oaks of Mamre the Amorite, whose brothers were Eshcol and Aner. All of them were Abram's allies. |
361 | GEN 14:24 | I won't take anything except what my men have eaten, and the share for those who accompanied me—Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre. Let them have their share.” |
363 | GEN 15:2 | But Abram replied, “Lord God, what good is whatever you give me? I don't have any children, and the heir to all that I have is Eliezer of Damascus.” |
379 | GEN 15:18 | This is how the Lord made an agreement with Abram that day and promised him, “I'm giving this land to your descendants. It extends from the Wadi of Egypt to the great Euphrates River, |
383 | GEN 16:1 | Sarai, Abram's wife, hadn't been able to have any children for him. However, she owned a female Egyptian slave named Hagar, |
385 | GEN 16:3 | So Sarai, Abram's wife took her Egyptian slave Hagar and gave her to her husband as his wife. Abram had been living in the land of Canaan for ten years when this happened. |
523 | GEN 21:9 | But Sarah noticed that Ishmael, Hagar the Egyptian's son she'd had for Abraham, was making fun of Isaac. |
535 | GEN 21:21 | He lived in the Desert of Paran. His mother chose a wife for him from the land of Egypt. |
547 | GEN 21:33 | Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba and there he worshiped the Lord, the Eternal God. |
580 | GEN 23:8 | and said to them, “If you agree to help me bury my dead, listen to my proposal. Could you please ask Ephron, son of Zohar, |
582 | GEN 23:10 | Ephron the Hittite was sitting there among his people. He replied to Abraham in the presence of the Hittites who were there at the town gate. |
585 | GEN 23:13 | and said to Ephron so everyone could hear, “Please listen to me. I will pay the price for the field. Take the money and let me go and bury my dead there.” |
586 | GEN 23:14 | Ephron replied to Abraham, telling him, |
588 | GEN 23:16 | Abraham accepted Ephron's offer. Abraham weighed out and gave to Ephron the four hundred pieces of silver he'd mentioned, using the standard weights used by merchants, and with the Hittites acting as witnesses. |
589 | GEN 23:17 | So the property was legally transferred. It comprised Ephron's field in Machpelah near Mamre, both the field and the cave there, as well as all the trees in the field, and all the area up to the existing boundaries. |
663 | GEN 25:4 | The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. These were all descendants of Keturah. |
668 | GEN 25:9 | His sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah near Mamre, in the field that had belonged to Ephron, son of Zohar, the Hittite. |
671 | GEN 25:12 | This is the genealogy of Abraham's son Ishmael. His mother Hagar was Sarah's Egyptian slave. |
677 | GEN 25:18 | Ishmael's descendants inhabited the region from Havilah to Shur, near the border of Egypt in the direction of Asshur. They were forever fighting with one other. |
684 | GEN 25:25 | The first baby to be born was red, and covered with hair like a coat. So they named him Esau. |
685 | GEN 25:26 | Then his twin brother was born, holding on to Esau's heel. So he was named Jacob. Isaac was 60 when they were born. |
686 | GEN 25:27 | The boys grew up and Esau became a skilled hunter, at home in the countryside. Jacob was quiet and liked to stay at home in the tents. |
687 | GEN 25:28 | Isaac loved Esau because he brought him tasty wild game to eat, while Rebekah loved Jacob. |
688 | GEN 25:29 | One day Jacob was cooking some stew when Esau got back from the countryside, tired out and starving hungry. |
689 | GEN 25:30 | “Give me some of that red stew,” Esau told Jacob. “I'm absolutely starving!” (That's how Esau got his other name, “Edom,” meaning “red.”) |
691 | GEN 25:32 | “Look! I'm dying here! What use are the rights of the firstborn to me?” Esau declared. |
692 | GEN 25:33 | “First you have to swear to me,” Jacob demanded. So Esau swore an oath selling his rights of the firstborn to Jacob. |
693 | GEN 25:34 | Then Jacob gave Esau some bread and lentil stew. He ate and drank, and then he got up and left. By doing this Esau showed how little he cared for his rights as the firstborn son. |
695 | GEN 26:2 | The Lord appeared to Isaac and told him, “Don't go to Egypt—live in the country that I tell you to. |
727 | GEN 26:34 | When Esau was 40, he married Judith, daughter of Beeri the Hittite, as well as Basemath, daughter of Elon the Hittite. |
729 | GEN 27:1 | Isaac was old and going blind. He called for Esau, his oldest son, and said, “My son.” “I'm here,” Esau replied. |
733 | GEN 27:5 | Rebekah heard what Isaac told his son Esau. So when Esau left to go hunting in the countryside for wild game, |
739 | GEN 27:11 | “But listen,” Jacob replied to his mother Rebekah, “my brother Esau is a hairy man, and I'm a smooth man. |
743 | GEN 27:15 | Then Rebekah went and got her older son Esau's best clothes that she had at home and put them on Jacob her younger son. |
