¹وقال الرب لابرام اذهب من ارضك ومن عشيرتك ومن بيت ابيك الى الارض التي اريك.

¹Now Jehovah said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto the land that I will show thee:

²فاجعلك امة عظيمة واباركك واعظم اسمك وتكون بركة.

²and I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make they name great; and be thou a blessing;

³وابارك مباركيك ولاعنك العنه. وتتبارك فيك جميع قبائل الارض.

³and I will bless them that bless thee, and him that curseth thee will I curse: and in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed.

⁴فذهب ابرام كما قال له الرب وذهب معه لوط. وكان ابرام ابن خمس وسبعين سنة لما خرج من حاران.

⁴So Abram went, as Jehovah had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.

⁵فاخذ ابرام ساراي امرأته ولوطا ابن اخيه وكل مقتنياتهما التي اقتنيا والنفوس التي امتلكا في حاران. وخرجوا ليذهبوا الى ارض كنعان. فأتوا الى ارض كنعان

⁵And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran; and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.

⁶واجتاز ابرام في الارض الى مكان شكيم الى بلّوطة مورة. وكان الكنعانيون حينئذ في الارض.

⁶And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Shechem, unto the oak of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.

⁷وظهر الرب لابرام وقال لنسلك اعطي هذه الارض. فبنى هناك مذبحا للرب الذي ظهر له.

⁷And Jehovah appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto Jehovah, who appeared unto him.

⁸ثم نقل من هناك الى الجبل شرقي بيت ايل ونصب خيمته. وله بيت ايل من المغرب وعاي من المشرق. فبنى هناك مذبحا للرب ودعا باسم الرب.

⁸And he removed from thence unto the mountain on the east of Beth-el, and pitched his tent, having Beth-el on the west, and Ai on the east: and there he builded an altar unto Jehovah, and called upon the name of Jehovah.

⁹ثم ارتحل ابرام ارتحالا متواليا نحو الجنوب

⁹And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the South.

¹⁰وحدث جوع في الارض. فانحدر ابرام الى مصر ليتغرب هناك. لان الجوع في الارض كان شديدا.

¹⁰And there was a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was sore in the land.

¹¹وحدث لما قرب ان يدخل مصر انه قال لساراي امرأته اني قد علمت انك امرأة حسنة المنظر.

¹¹And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou art a fair woman to look upon:

¹²فيكون اذا رآك المصريون انهم يقولون هذه امرأته. فيقتلونني ويستبقونك.

¹²and it will come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see thee, that they will say, This is his wife: and they will kill me, but they will save thee alive.

¹³قولي انك اختي. ليكون لي خير بسببك وتحيا نفسي من اجلك

¹³Say, I pray thee, thou art my sister; that it may be well with me for thy sake, and that my soul may live because of thee.

¹⁴فحدث لما دخل ابرام الى مصر ان المصريين رأوا المرأة انها حسنة جدا.

¹⁴And it came to pass, that, when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair.

¹⁵ورآها رؤساء فرعون ومدحوها لدى فرعون. فأخذت المرأة الى بيت فرعون.

¹⁵And the princes of Pharaoh saw her, and praised her to Pharaoh: and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.

¹⁶فصنع الى ابرام خيرا بسببها. وصار له غنم وبقر وحمير وعبيد واماء وأتن وجمال.

¹⁶And he dealt well with Abram for her sake: and he had sheep, and oxen, and he-asses, and men-servants, and maid-servants, and she-asses, and camels.

¹⁷فضرب الرب فرعون وبيته ضربات عظيمة بسبب ساراي امرأة ابرام.

¹⁷And Jehovah plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai, Abram's wife.

¹⁸فدعا فرعون ابرام وقال ما هذا الذي صنعت بي. لماذا لم تخبرني انها امرأتك.

¹⁸And Pharaoh called Abram, and said, What is this that thou hast done unto me? why didst thou not tell me that she was thy wife?

¹⁹لماذا قلت هي اختي حتى اخذتها لي لتكون زوجتي. والآن هوذا امرأتك. خذها واذهب.

¹⁹why saidst thou, She is my sister, so that I took her to be my wife? now therefore behold thy wife, take her, and go thy way.

²⁰فاوصى عليه فرعون رجالا فشيعوه وامرأته وكل ما كان له

²⁰And Pharaoh gave men charge concerning him: and they brought him on the way, and his wife, and all that he had.
