6 | GEN 1:6 | God said, “Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters and let it separate water from water. |
7 | GEN 1:7 | So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. It was so. |
8 | GEN 1:8 | God called the expanse “sky.” There was evening, and there was morning, a second day. |
14 | GEN 1:14 | God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them be signs to indicate seasons and days and years, |
15 | GEN 1:15 | and let them serve as lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth.” It was so. |
17 | GEN 1:17 | God placed the lights in the expanse of the sky to shine on the earth, |
20 | GEN 1:20 | God said, “Let the water swarm with swarms of living creatures and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the sky.” |
31 | GEN 1:31 | God saw all that he had made – and it was very good! There was evening, and there was morning, the sixth day. |
79 | GEN 3:23 | So the Lord God expelled him from the orchard in Eden to cultivate the ground from which he had been taken. |
85 | GEN 4:5 | but with Cain and his offering he was not pleased. So Cain became very angry, and his expression was downcast. |
86 | GEN 4:6 | Then the Lord said to Cain, “Why are you angry, and why is your expression downcast? |
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. |
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. |
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. |
206 | GEN 8:22 | “While the earth continues to exist, planting time and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, and day and night will not cease.” |
211 | GEN 9:5 | For your lifeblood I will surely exact punishment, from every living creature I will exact punishment. From each person I will exact punishment for the life of the individual since the man was his relative. |
254 | GEN 10:19 | and the borders of Canaan extended from Sidon all the way to Gerar as far as Gaza, and all the way to Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha. |
257 | GEN 10:22 | The sons of Shem were Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram. |
259 | GEN 10:24 | Arphaxad was the father of Shelah, and Shelah was the father of Eber. |
277 | GEN 11:10 | This is the account of Shem. Shem was 100 old when he became the father of Arphaxad, two years after the flood. |
278 | GEN 11:11 | And after becoming the father of Arphaxad, Shem lived 500 years and had other sons and daughters. |
279 | GEN 11:12 | When Arphaxad had lived 35 years, he became the father of Shelah. |
280 | GEN 11:13 | And after he became the father of Shelah, Arphaxad lived 403 years and had other sons and daughters. |
301 | GEN 12:2 | Then I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you, and I will make your name great, so that you will exemplify divine blessing. |
319 | GEN 12:20 | Pharaoh gave his men orders about Abram, and so they expelled him, along with his wife and all his possessions. |
331 | GEN 13:12 | Abram settled in the land of Canaan, but Lot settled among the cities of the Jordan plain and pitched his tents next to Sodom. |
332 | GEN 13:13 | (Now the people of Sodom were extremely wicked rebels against the Lord.) |
361 | GEN 14:24 | I will take nothing except compensation for what the young men have eaten. As for the share of the men who went with me – Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre – let them take their share.” |
375 | GEN 15:14 | But I will execute judgment on the nation that they will serve. Afterward they will come out with many possessions. |
384 | GEN 16:2 | So Sarai said to Abram, “Since the Lord has prevented me from having children, have sexual relations with my servant. Perhaps I can have a family by her.” Abram did what Sarai told him. |
386 | GEN 16:4 | He had sexual relations with Hagar, and she became pregnant. Once Hagar realized she was pregnant, she despised Sarai. |
387 | GEN 16:5 | Then Sarai said to Abram, “You have brought this wrong on me! I allowed my servant to have sexual relations with you, but when she realized that she was pregnant, she despised me. May the Lord judge between you and me!” |
404 | GEN 17:6 | I will make you extremely fruitful. I will make nations of you, and kings will descend from you. |
405 | GEN 17:7 | I will confirm my covenant as a perpetual covenant between me and you. It will extend to your descendants after you throughout their generations. I will be your God and the God of your descendants after you. |
419 | GEN 17:21 | But I will establish my covenant with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you at this set time next year.” |
463 | GEN 19:5 | They shouted to Lot, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so we can have sex with them!” |
466 | GEN 19:8 | Look, I have two daughters who have never had sexual relations with a man. Let me bring them out to you, and you can do to them whatever you please. Only don’t do anything to these men, for they have come under the protection of my roof.” |
480 | GEN 19:22 | Run there quickly, for I cannot do anything until you arrive there.” (This incident explains why the town was called Zoar.) |
489 | GEN 19:31 | Later the older daughter said to the younger, “Our father is old, and there is no man anywhere nearby to have sexual relations with us, according to the way of all the world. |
490 | GEN 19:32 | Come, let’s make our father drunk with wine so we can have sexual relations with him and preserve our family line through our father.” |
491 | GEN 19:33 | So that night they made their father drunk with wine, and the older daughter came and had sexual relations with her father. But he was not aware that she had sexual relations with him and then got up. |
492 | GEN 19:34 | So in the morning the older daughter said to the younger, “Since I had sexual relations with my father last night, let’s make him drunk again tonight. Then you go and have sexual relations with him so we can preserve our family line through our father.” |
493 | GEN 19:35 | So they made their father drunk that night as well, and the younger one came and had sexual relations with him. But he was not aware that she had sexual relations with him and then got up. |
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. |
589 | GEN 23:17 | So Abraham secured Ephron’s field in Machpelah, next to Mamre, including the field, the cave that was in it, and all the trees that were in the field and all around its border, |
591 | GEN 23:19 | After this Abraham buried his wife Sarah in the cave in the field of Machpelah next to Mamre (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan. |
608 | GEN 24:16 | Now the young woman was very beautiful. She was a virgin; no man had ever had sexual relations with her. She went down to the spring, filled her jug, and came back up. |
655 | GEN 24:63 | He went out to relax in the field in the early evening. Then he looked up and saw that there were camels approaching. |
677 | GEN 25:18 | His descendants settled from Havilah to Shur, which runs next to Egypt all the way to Asshur. They settled away from all their relatives. |
685 | GEN 25:26 | When his brother came out with his hand clutching Esau’s heel, they named him Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when they were born. |
703 | GEN 26:10 | Then Abimelech exclaimed, “What in the world have you done to us? One of the men might easily have had sexual relations with your wife, and you would have brought guilt on us!” |
728 | GEN 26:35 | They caused Isaac and Rebekah great anxiety. |
736 | GEN 27:8 | Now then, my son, do exactly what I tell you! |
764 | GEN 27:36 | Esau exclaimed, “‘Jacob’ is the right name for him! He has tripped me up two times! He took away my birthright, and now, look, he has taken away my blessing!” Then he asked, “Have you not kept back a blessing for me?” |
808 | GEN 29:12 | When Jacob explained to Rachel that he was a relative of her father and the son of Rebekah, she ran and told her father. |
814 | GEN 29:18 | Since Jacob had fallen in love with Rachel, he said, “I’ll serve you seven years in exchange for your younger daughter Rachel.” |
821 | GEN 29:25 | In the morning Jacob discovered it was Leah! So Jacob said to Laban, “What in the world have you done to me! Didn’t I work for you in exchange for Rachel? Why have you tricked me?” |
823 | GEN 29:27 | Complete my older daughter’s bridal week. Then we will give you the younger one too, in exchange for seven more years of work.” |
833 | GEN 30:2 | Jacob became furious with Rachel and exclaimed, “Am I in the place of God, who has kept you from having children?” |
834 | GEN 30:3 | She replied, “Here is my servant Bilhah! Have sexual relations with her so that she can bear children for me and I can have a family through her.” |
846 | GEN 30:15 | But Leah replied, “Wasn’t it enough that you’ve taken away my husband? Would you take away my son’s mandrakes too?” “All right,” Rachel said, “he may sleep with you tonight in exchange for your son’s mandrakes.” |
850 | GEN 30:19 | Leah became pregnant again and gave Jacob a son for the sixth time. |
851 | GEN 30:20 | Then Leah said, “God has given me a good gift. Now my husband will honor me because I have given him six sons.” So she named him Zebulun. |
871 | GEN 30:40 | Jacob removed these lambs, but he made the rest of the flock face the streaked and completely dark-colored animals in Laban’s flock. So he made separate flocks for himself and did not mix them with Laban’s flocks. |
874 | GEN 30:43 | In this way Jacob became extremely prosperous. He owned large flocks, male and female servants, camels, and donkeys. |
875 | GEN 31:1 | Jacob heard that Laban’s sons were complaining, “Jacob has taken everything that belonged to our father! He has gotten rich at our father’s expense!” |
915 | GEN 31:41 | This was my lot for twenty years in your house: I worked like a slave for you – fourteen years for your two daughters and six years for your flocks, but you changed my wages ten times! |
931 | GEN 32:3 | When Jacob saw them, he exclaimed, “This is the camp of God!” So he named that place Mahanaim. |
934 | GEN 32:6 | I have oxen, donkeys, sheep, and male and female servants. I have sent this message to inform my lord, so that I may find favor in your sight.’” |
945 | GEN 32:17 | He entrusted them to his servants, who divided them into herds. He told his servants, “Pass over before me, and keep some distance between one herd and the next.” |
959 | GEN 32:31 | So Jacob named the place Peniel, explaining, “Certainly I have seen God face to face and have survived.” |
983 | GEN 34:2 | When Shechem son of Hamor the Hivite, who ruled that area, saw her, he grabbed her, forced himself on her, and sexually assaulted her. |
988 | GEN 34:7 | Now Jacob’s sons had come in from the field when they heard the news. They were offended and very angry because Shechem had disgraced Israel by sexually assaulting Jacob’s daughter, a crime that should not be committed. |
993 | GEN 34:12 | You can make the bride price and the gift I must bring very expensive, and I’ll give whatever you ask of me. Just give me the young woman as my wife!” |
1034 | GEN 35:22 | While Israel was living in that land, Reuben had sexual relations with Bilhah, his father’s concubine, and Israel heard about it. Jacob had twelve sons: |
1117 | GEN 37:33 | He recognized it and exclaimed, “It is my son’s tunic! A wild animal has eaten him! Joseph has surely been torn to pieces!” |
1128 | GEN 38:8 | Then Judah said to Onan, “Have sexual relations with your brother’s wife and fulfill the duty of a brother-in-law to her so that you may raise up a descendant for your brother.” |
1129 | GEN 38:9 | But Onan knew that the child would not be considered his. So whenever he had sexual relations with his brother’s wife, he withdrew prematurely so as not to give his brother a descendant. |
1136 | GEN 38:16 | He turned aside to her along the road and said, “Come on! I want to have sex with you.” (He did not realize it was his daughter-in-law.) She asked, “What will you give me in exchange for having sex with you?” |
1138 | GEN 38:18 | He said, “What pledge should I give you?” She replied, “Your seal, your cord, and the staff that’s in your hand.” So he gave them to her and had sex with her. She became pregnant by him. |
1146 | GEN 38:26 | Judah recognized them and said, “She is more upright than I am, because I wouldn’t give her to Shelah my son.” He did not have sexual relations with her again. |
1156 | GEN 39:6 | So Potiphar left everything he had in Joseph’s care; he gave no thought to anything except the food he ate. Now Joseph was well built and good-looking. |
1157 | GEN 39:7 | Soon after these things, his master’s wife took notice of Joseph and said, “Have sex with me.” |
1159 | GEN 39:9 | There is no one greater in this household than I am. He has withheld nothing from me except you because you are his wife. So how could I do such a great evil and sin against God?” |
1160 | GEN 39:10 | Even though she continued to speak to Joseph day after day, he did not respond to her invitation to have sex with her. |
1162 | GEN 39:12 | She grabbed him by his outer garment, saying, “Have sex with me!” But he left his outer garment in her hand and ran outside. |
1164 | GEN 39:14 | she called for her household servants and said to them, “See, my husband brought in a Hebrew man to us to humiliate us. He tried to have sex with me, but I screamed loudly. |
1231 | GEN 41:35 | They should gather all the excess food during these good years that are coming. By Pharaoh’s authority they should store up grain so the cities will have food, and they should preserve it. |
1244 | GEN 41:48 | Joseph collected all the excess food in the land of Egypt during the seven years and stored it in the cities. In every city he put the food gathered from the fields around it. |
1251 | GEN 41:55 | When all the land of Egypt experienced the famine, the people cried out to Pharaoh for food. Pharaoh said to all the people of Egypt, “Go to Joseph and do whatever he tells you.” |
1263 | GEN 42:10 | But they exclaimed, “No, my lord! Your servants have come to buy grain for food! |
1341 | GEN 44:16 | Judah replied, “What can we say to my lord? What can we speak? How can we clear ourselves? God has exposed the sin of your servants! We are now my lord’s slaves, we and the one in whose possession the cup was found.” |
1405 | GEN 46:18 | These were the sons of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to Leah his daughter. She bore these to Jacob, sixteen in all. |
1413 | GEN 46:26 | All the direct descendants of Jacob who went to Egypt with him were sixty-six in number. (This number does not include the wives of Jacob’s sons.) |
1437 | GEN 47:16 | Then Joseph said, “If your money is gone, bring your livestock, and I will give you food in exchange for your livestock.” |
1438 | GEN 47:17 | So they brought their livestock to Joseph, and Joseph gave them food in exchange for their horses, the livestock of their flocks and herds, and their donkeys. He got them through that year by giving them food in exchange for livestock. |
1439 | GEN 47:18 | When that year was over, they came to him the next year and said to him, “We cannot hide from our lord that the money is used up and the livestock and the animals belong to our lord. Nothing remains before our lord except our bodies and our land. |
