16 | GEN 1:16 | God made two great lights – the greater light to rule over the day and the lesser light to rule over the night. He made the stars also. |
42 | GEN 2:11 | The name of the first is Pishon; it runs through the entire land of Havilah, where there is gold. |
50 | GEN 2:19 | The Lord God formed out of the ground every living animal of the field and every bird of the air. He brought them to the man to see what he would name them, and whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name. |
57 | GEN 3:1 | Now the serpent was more shrewd than any of the wild animals that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Is it really true that God said, ‘You must not eat from any tree of the orchard’?” |
108 | GEN 5:2 | He created them male and female; when they were created, he blessed them and named them “humankind.” |
135 | GEN 5:29 | He named him Noah, saying, “This one will bring us comfort from our labor and from the painful toil of our hands because of the ground that the Lord has cursed.” |
138 | GEN 5:32 | After Noah was 500 years old, he became the father of Shem, Ham, and Japheth. |
147 | GEN 6:9 | This is the account of Noah. Noah was a godly man; he was blameless among his contemporaries. He walked with God. |
148 | GEN 6:10 | Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. |
173 | GEN 7:13 | On that very day Noah entered the ark, accompanied by his sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, along with his wife and his sons’ three wives. |
193 | GEN 8:9 | The dove could not find a resting place for its feet because water still covered the surface of the entire earth, and so it returned to Noah in the ark. He stretched out his hand, took the dove, and brought it back into the ark. |
194 | GEN 8:10 | He waited seven more days and then sent out the dove again from the ark. |
196 | GEN 8:12 | He waited another seven days and sent the dove out again, but it did not return to him this time. |
204 | GEN 8:20 | Noah built an altar to the Lord. He then took some of every kind of clean animal and clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar. |
224 | GEN 9:18 | The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. (Now Ham was the father of Canaan.) |
228 | GEN 9:22 | Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father’s nakedness and told his two brothers who were outside. |
232 | GEN 9:26 | He also said, “Worthy of praise is the Lord, the God of Shem! May Canaan be the slave of Shem! |
236 | GEN 10:1 | This is the account of Noah’s sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood. |
241 | GEN 10:6 | The sons of Ham were Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan. |
242 | GEN 10:7 | The sons of Cush were Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. The sons of Raamah were Sheba and Dedan. |
244 | GEN 10:9 | He was a mighty hunter before the Lord. (That is why it is said, “Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the Lord.”) |
250 | GEN 10:15 | Canaan was the father of Sidon his firstborn, Heth, |
252 | GEN 10:17 | Hivites, Arkites, Sinites, |
253 | GEN 10:18 | Arvadites, Zemarites, and Hamathites. Eventually the families of the Canaanites were scattered |
255 | GEN 10:20 | These are the sons of Ham, according to their families, according to their languages, by their lands, and by their nations. |
258 | GEN 10:23 | The sons of Aram were Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash. |
261 | GEN 10:26 | Joktan was the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah, |
262 | GEN 10:27 | Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah, |
264 | GEN 10:29 | Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All these were sons of Joktan. |
293 | GEN 11:26 | When Terah had lived 70 years, he became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran. |
294 | GEN 11:27 | This is the account of Terah. Terah became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran. And Haran became the father of Lot. |
295 | GEN 11:28 | Haran died in the land of his birth, in Ur of the Chaldeans, while his father Terah was still alive. |
296 | GEN 11:29 | And Abram and Nahor took wives for themselves. The name of Abram’s wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor’s wife was Milcah; she was the daughter of Haran, the father of both Milcah and Iscah. |
298 | GEN 11:31 | Terah took his son Abram, his grandson Lot (the son of Haran), and his daughter-in-law Sarai, his son Abram’s wife, and with them he set out from Ur of the Chaldeans to go to Canaan. When they came to Haran, they settled there. |
299 | GEN 11:32 | The lifetime of Terah was 205 years, and he died in Haran. |
303 | GEN 12:4 | So Abram left, just as the Lord had told him to do, and Lot went with him. (Now Abram was 75 years old when he departed from Haran.) |
304 | GEN 12:5 | And Abram took his wife Sarai, his nephew Lot, and all the possessions they had accumulated and the people they had acquired in Haran, and they left for the land of Canaan. They entered the land of Canaan. |
318 | GEN 12:19 | Why did you say, ‘She is my sister,’ so that I took her to be my wife? Here is your wife! Take her and go!” |
320 | GEN 13:1 | So Abram went up from Egypt into the Negev. He took his wife and all his possessions with him, as well as Lot. |
322 | GEN 13:3 | And he journeyed from place to place from the Negev as far as Bethel. He returned to the place where he had pitched his tent at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai. |
329 | GEN 13:10 | Lot looked up and saw the whole region of the Jordan. He noticed that all of it was well-watered (before the Lord obliterated Sodom and Gomorrah) like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt, all the way to Zoar. |
337 | GEN 13:18 | So Abram moved his tents and went to live by the oaks of Mamre in Hebron, and he built an altar to the Lord there. |
342 | GEN 14:5 | In the fourteenth year, Kedorlaomer and the kings who were his allies came and 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, as far as El Paran, which is near the desert. |
344 | GEN 14:7 | Then they attacked En Mishpat (that is, Kadesh) again, and they conquered all the territory of the Amalekites, as well as the Amorites who were living in Hazazon Tamar. |
350 | GEN 14:13 | A fugitive came and told Abram the Hebrew. Now Abram was living by the oaks of Mamre the Amorite, the brother of Eshcol and Aner. (All these were allied by treaty with Abram.) |
352 | GEN 14:15 | Then, during the night, Abram divided his forces against them and defeated them. He chased them as far as Hobah, which is north of Damascus. |
353 | GEN 14:16 | He retrieved all the stolen property. He also brought back his nephew Lot and his possessions, as well as the women and the rest of the people. |
355 | GEN 14:18 | Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. (Now he was the priest of the Most High God.) |
356 | GEN 14:19 | He blessed Abram, saying, “Blessed be Abram by the Most High God, Creator of heaven and earth. |
357 | GEN 14:20 | Worthy of praise is the Most High God, who delivered your enemies into your hand.” Abram gave Melchizedek a tenth of everything. |
359 | GEN 14:22 | But Abram replied to the king of Sodom, “I raise my hand to the Lord, the Most High God, Creator of heaven and earth, and vow |
381 | GEN 15:20 | Hittites, Perizzites, Rephaites, |
383 | GEN 16:1 | Now Sarai, Abram’s wife, had not given birth to any children, but she had an Egyptian servant named Hagar. |
385 | GEN 16:3 | So after Abram had lived in Canaan for ten years, Sarai, Abram’s wife, gave Hagar, her Egyptian servant, to her husband to be his wife. |
386 | GEN 16:4 | He had sexual relations with Hagar, and she became pregnant. Once Hagar realized she was pregnant, she despised Sarai. |
388 | GEN 16:6 | Abram said to Sarai, “Since your servant is under your authority, do to her whatever you think best.” Then Sarai treated Hagar harshly, so she ran away from Sarai. |
389 | GEN 16:7 | The Lord’s angel found Hagar near a spring of water in the desert – the spring that is along the road to Shur. |
390 | GEN 16:8 | He said, “Hagar, servant of Sarai, where have you come from, and where are you going?” She replied, “I’m running away from my mistress, Sarai.” |
394 | GEN 16:12 | He will be a wild donkey of a man. He will be hostile to everyone, and everyone will be hostile to him. He will live away from his brothers.” |
395 | GEN 16:13 | So Hagar named the Lord who spoke to her, “You are the God who sees me,” for she said, “Here I have seen one who sees me!” |
397 | GEN 16:15 | So Hagar gave birth to Abram’s son, whom Abram named Ishmael. |
398 | GEN 16:16 | (Now Abram was 86 years old when Hagar gave birth to Ishmael.) |
418 | GEN 17:20 | As for Ishmael, I have heard you. I will indeed bless him, make him fruitful, and give him a multitude of descendants. He will become the father of twelve princes; I will make him into a great nation. |
428 | GEN 18:3 | He said, “My lord, if I have found favor in your sight, do not pass by and leave your servant. |
434 | GEN 18:9 | Then they asked him, “Where is Sarah your wife?” He replied, “There, in the tent.” |
453 | GEN 18:28 | what if there are five less than the fifty godly people? Will you destroy the whole city because five are lacking?” He replied, “I will not destroy it if I find forty-five there.” |
454 | GEN 18:29 | Abraham spoke to him again, “What if forty are found there?” He replied, “I will not do it for the sake of the forty.” |
455 | GEN 18:30 | Then Abraham said, “May the Lord not be angry so that I may speak! What if thirty are found there?” He replied, “I will not do it if I find thirty there.” |
456 | GEN 18:31 | Abraham said, “Since I have undertaken to speak to the Lord, what if only twenty are found there?” He replied, “I will not destroy it for the sake of the twenty.” |
457 | GEN 18:32 | Finally Abraham said, “May the Lord not be angry so that I may speak just once more. What if ten are found there?” He replied, “I will not destroy it for the sake of the ten.” |
460 | GEN 19:2 | He said, “Here, my lords, please turn aside to your servant’s house. Stay the night and wash your feet. Then you can be on your way early in the morning.” “No,” they replied, “we’ll spend the night in the town square.” |
461 | GEN 19:3 | But he urged them persistently, so they turned aside with him and entered his house. He prepared a feast for them, including bread baked without yeast, and they ate. |
465 | GEN 19:7 | He said, “No, my brothers! Don’t act so wickedly! |
472 | GEN 19:14 | Then Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law who were going to marry his daughters. He said, “Quick, get out of this place because the Lord is about to destroy the city!” But his sons-in-law thought he was ridiculing them. |
486 | GEN 19:28 | He looked out toward Sodom and Gomorrah and all the land of that region. As he did so, he saw the smoke rising up from the land like smoke from a furnace. |
487 | GEN 19:29 | So when God destroyed the cities of the region, God honored Abraham’s request. He removed Lot from the midst of the destruction when he destroyed the cities Lot had lived in. |
495 | GEN 19:37 | The older daughter gave birth to a son and named him Moab. He is the ancestor of the Moabites of today. |
496 | GEN 19:38 | The younger daughter also gave birth to a son and named him Ben-Ammi. He is the ancestor of the Ammonites of today. |
500 | GEN 20:4 | Now Abimelech had not gone near her. He said, “Lord, would you really slaughter an innocent nation? |
501 | GEN 20:5 | Did Abraham not say to me, ‘She is my sister’? And she herself said, ‘He is my brother.’ I have done this with a clear conscience and with innocent hands!” |
509 | GEN 20:13 | When God made me wander from my father’s house, I told her, ‘This is what you can do to show your loyalty to me: Every place we go, say about me, “He is my brother.”’” |
510 | GEN 20:14 | So Abimelech gave sheep, cattle, and male and female servants to Abraham. He also gave his wife Sarah back to him. |
523 | GEN 21:9 | But Sarah noticed the son of Hagar the Egyptian – the son whom Hagar had borne to Abraham – mocking. |
528 | GEN 21:14 | Early in the morning Abraham took some food and a skin of water and gave them to Hagar. He put them on her shoulders, gave her the child, and sent her away. So she went wandering aimlessly through the wilderness of Beer Sheba. |
531 | GEN 21:17 | But God heard the boy’s voice. The angel of God called to Hagar from heaven and asked her, “What is the matter, Hagar? Don’t be afraid, for God has heard the boy’s voice right where he is crying. |
532 | GEN 21:18 | Get up! Help the boy up and hold him by the hand, for I will make him into a great nation.” |
533 | GEN 21:19 | Then God enabled Hagar to see a well of water. She went over and filled the skin with water, and then gave the boy a drink. |
534 | GEN 21:20 | God was with the boy as he grew. He lived in the wilderness and became an archer. |
535 | GEN 21:21 | He lived in the wilderness of Paran. His mother found a wife for him from the land of Egypt. |
544 | GEN 21:30 | He replied, “You must take these seven ewe lambs from my hand as legal proof that I dug this well.” |
549 | GEN 22:1 | Some time after these things God tested Abraham. He said to him, “Abraham!” “Here I am!” Abraham replied. |
