2 | GEN 1:2 | Now the earth was without shape and empty, and darkness was over the surface of the watery deep, but the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the water. |
36 | GEN 2:5 | Now no shrub of the field had yet grown on the earth, and no plant of the field had yet sprouted, for the Lord God had not caused it to rain on the earth, and there was no man to cultivate the ground. |
40 | GEN 2:9 | The Lord God made all kinds of trees grow from the soil, every tree that was pleasing to look at and good for food. (Now the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil were in the middle of the orchard.) |
41 | GEN 2:10 | Now a river flows from Eden to water the orchard, and from there it divides into four headstreams. |
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’?” |
78 | GEN 3:22 | And the Lord God said, “Now that the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil, he must not be allowed to stretch out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.” |
81 | GEN 4:1 | Now the man had marital relations with his wife Eve, and she became pregnant and gave birth to Cain. Then she said, “I have created a man just as the Lord did!” |
96 | GEN 4:16 | So Cain went out from the presence of the Lord and lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden. |
102 | GEN 4:22 | Now Zillah also gave birth to Tubal-Cain, who heated metal and shaped all kinds of tools made of bronze and iron. The sister of Tubal-Cain was Naamah. |
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.” |
136 | GEN 5:30 | Lamech lived 595 years after he became the father of Noah, and he had other sons and daughters. |
138 | GEN 5:32 | After Noah was 500 years old, he became the father of Shem, Ham, and Japheth. |
142 | GEN 6:4 | The Nephilim were on the earth in those days (and also after this) when the sons of God were having sexual relations with the daughters of humankind, who gave birth to their children. They were the mighty heroes of old, the famous men. |
146 | GEN 6:8 | But Noah found favor in the sight of the Lord. |
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. |
151 | GEN 6:13 | So God said to Noah, “I have decided that all living creatures must die, for the earth is filled with violence because of them. Now I am about to destroy them and the earth. |
160 | GEN 6:22 | And Noah did all that God commanded him – he did indeed. |
161 | GEN 7:1 | The Lord said to Noah, “Come into the ark, you and all your household, for I consider you godly among this generation. |
165 | GEN 7:5 | And Noah did all that the Lord commanded him. |
166 | GEN 7:6 | Noah was 600 years old when the floodwaters engulfed the earth. |
167 | GEN 7:7 | Noah entered the ark along with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives because of the floodwaters. |
169 | GEN 7:9 | male and female, came into the ark to Noah, just as God had commanded him. |
171 | GEN 7:11 | In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month – on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst open and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. |
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. |
175 | GEN 7:15 | Pairs of all creatures that have the breath of life came into the ark to Noah. |
183 | GEN 7:23 | So the Lord destroyed every living thing that was on the surface of the ground, including people, animals, creatures that creep along the ground, and birds of the sky. They were wiped off the earth. Only Noah and those who were with him in the ark survived. |
185 | GEN 8:1 | But God remembered Noah and all the wild animals and domestic animals that were with him in the ark. God caused a wind to blow over the earth and the waters receded. |
190 | GEN 8:6 | At the end of forty days, Noah opened the window he had made in the ark |
192 | GEN 8:8 | Then Noah sent out a dove to see if the waters had receded from the surface of the ground. |
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. |
195 | GEN 8:11 | When the dove returned to him in the evening, there was a freshly plucked olive leaf in its beak! Noah knew that the waters had receded from the earth. |
197 | GEN 8:13 | In Noah’s six hundred and first year, in the first day of the first month, the waters had dried up from the earth, and Noah removed the covering from the ark and saw that the surface of the ground was dry. |
199 | GEN 8:15 | Then God spoke to Noah and said, |
202 | GEN 8:18 | Noah went out along with his sons, his wife, and his sons’ wives. |
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. |
207 | GEN 9:1 | Then God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth. |
214 | GEN 9:8 | God said to Noah and his sons, |
217 | GEN 9:11 | I confirm my covenant with you: Never again will all living things be wiped out by the waters of a flood; never again will a flood destroy the earth.” |
221 | GEN 9:15 | then I will remember my covenant with you and with all living creatures of all kinds. Never again will the waters become a flood and destroy all living things. |
223 | GEN 9:17 | So God said to Noah, “This is the guarantee of the covenant that I am confirming between me and all living things that are on the earth.” |
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.) |
225 | GEN 9:19 | These were the sons of Noah, and from them the whole earth was populated. |
226 | GEN 9:20 | Noah, a man of the soil, began to plant a vineyard. |
230 | GEN 9:24 | When Noah awoke from his drunken stupor he learned what his youngest son had done to him. |
234 | GEN 9:28 | After the flood Noah lived 350 years. |
235 | GEN 9:29 | The entire lifetime of Noah was 950 years, and then he died. |
236 | GEN 10:1 | This is the account of Noah’s sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood. |
243 | GEN 10:8 | Cush was the father of Nimrod; he began to be a valiant warrior on the earth. |
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.”) |
246 | GEN 10:11 | From that land he went to Assyria, where he built Nineveh, Rehoboth-Ir, Calah, |
247 | GEN 10:12 | and Resen, which is between Nineveh and the great city Calah. |
248 | GEN 10:13 | Mizraim was the father of the Ludites, Anamites, Lehabites, Naphtuhites, |
267 | GEN 10:32 | These are the families of the sons of Noah, according to their genealogies, by their nations, and from these the nations spread over the earth after the flood. |
289 | GEN 11:22 | When Serug had lived 30 years, he became the father of Nahor. |
290 | GEN 11:23 | And after he became the father of Nahor, Serug lived 200 years and had other sons and daughters. |
291 | GEN 11:24 | When Nahor had lived 29 years, he became the father of Terah. |
292 | GEN 11:25 | And after he became the father of Terah, Nahor lived 119 years and had other sons and daughters. |
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. |
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. |
300 | GEN 12:1 | Now the Lord said to Abram, “Go out from your country, your relatives, and your father’s household to the land that I will show you. |
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.) |
308 | GEN 12:9 | Abram continually journeyed by stages down to the Negev. |
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. |
321 | GEN 13:2 | (Now Abram was very wealthy in livestock, silver, and gold.) |
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. |
324 | GEN 13:5 | Now Lot, who was traveling with Abram, also had flocks, herds, and tents. |
326 | GEN 13:7 | So there were quarrels between Abram’s herdsmen and Lot’s herdsmen. (Now the Canaanites and the Perizzites were living in the land at that time.) |
332 | GEN 13:13 | (Now the people of Sodom were extremely wicked rebels against the Lord.) |
347 | GEN 14:10 | Now the Valley of Siddim was full of tar pits. When the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, they fell into them, but some survivors fled to the hills. |
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.) |
355 | GEN 14:18 | Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. (Now he was the priest of the Most High God.) |
383 | GEN 16:1 | Now Sarai, Abram’s wife, had not given birth to any children, but she had an Egyptian servant named Hagar. |
398 | GEN 16:16 | (Now Abram was 86 years old when Hagar gave birth to Ishmael.) |
403 | GEN 17:5 | No longer will your name be Abram. Instead, your name will be Abraham because I will make you the father of a multitude of nations. |
417 | GEN 17:19 | God said, “No, Sarah your wife is going to bear you a son, and you will name him Isaac. I will confirm my covenant with him as a perpetual covenant for his descendants after him. |
422 | GEN 17:24 | Now Abraham was 99 years old when he was circumcised; |
435 | GEN 18:10 | One of them said, “I will surely return to you when the season comes round again, and your wife Sarah will have a son!” (Now Sarah was listening at the entrance to the tent, not far behind him. |
440 | GEN 18:15 | Then Sarah lied, saying, “I did not laugh,” because she was afraid. But the Lord said, “No! You did laugh.” |
441 | GEN 18:16 | When the men got up to leave, they looked out over Sodom. (Now Abraham was walking with them to see them on their way.) |
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.” |
465 | GEN 19:7 | He said, “No, my brothers! Don’t act so wickedly! |
476 | GEN 19:18 | But Lot said to them, “No, please, Lord! |
497 | GEN 20:1 | Abraham journeyed from there to the Negev region and settled between Kadesh and Shur. While he lived as a temporary resident in Gerar, |
500 | GEN 20:4 | Now Abimelech had not gone near her. He said, “Lord, would you really slaughter an innocent nation? |
519 | GEN 21:5 | (Now Abraham was a hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him.) |
537 | GEN 21:23 | Now swear to me right here in God’s name that you will not deceive me, my children, or my descendants. Show me, and the land where you are staying, the same loyalty that I have shown you.” |
557 | GEN 22:9 | When they came to the place God had told him about, Abraham built the altar there and arranged the wood on it. Next he tied up his son Isaac and placed him on the altar on top of the wood. |
568 | GEN 22:20 | After these things Abraham was told, “Milcah also has borne children to your brother Nahor – |
571 | GEN 22:23 | (Now Bethuel became the father of Rebekah.) These were the eight sons Milcah bore to Abraham’s brother Nahor. |
578 | GEN 23:6 | “Listen, sir, you are a mighty prince among us! You may bury your dead in the choicest of our tombs. None of us will refuse you his tomb to prevent you from burying your dead.” |
582 | GEN 23:10 | (Now Ephron was sitting among the sons of Heth.) Ephron the Hethite replied to Abraham in the hearing of the sons of Heth – before all who entered the gate of his city – |
583 | GEN 23:11 | “No, my lord! Hear me out. I sell you both the field and the cave that is in it. In the presence of my people I sell it to you. Bury your dead.” |
593 | GEN 24:1 | Now Abraham was old, well advanced in years, and the Lord had blessed him in everything. |
602 | GEN 24:10 | Then the servant took ten of his master’s camels and departed with all kinds of gifts from his master at his disposal. He journeyed to the region of Aram Naharaim and the city of Nahor. |
