¹A Hospodin riekol Abramovi: Vyjdi zo svojej zeme a zo svojho príbuzenstva i z domu svojho otca a iď do zeme, ktorú ti ukážem.

¹And Jehovah saith unto Abram, `Go for thyself, from thy land, and from thy kindred, and from the house of thy father, unto the land which I shew thee.

²A učiním ťa veľkým národom a požehnám ťa a zvelebím tvoje meno, a budeš požehnaním.

²And I make thee become a great nation, and bless thee, and make thy name great; and be thou a blessing.

³A požehnám tých, ktorí ťa žehnajú, a tých, ktorí ti zlorečia, prekľajem, a budú požehnané v tebe všetky čeľade zeme.

³And I bless those blessing thee, and him who is disesteeming thee I curse, and blessed in thee have been all families of the ground.`

⁴Vtedy išiel Abram tak, ako mu hovoril Hospodin, a išiel s ním Lot. A Abramovi bolo sedemdesiatpäť rokov, keď vyšiel z Chárana.

⁴And Abram goeth on, as Jehovah hath spoken unto him, and Lot goeth with him, and Abram [is] a son of five and seventy years in his going out from Charan.

⁵A Abram vzal Sáraj, svoju ženu, i Lota, syna svojho brata, a všetok ich nadobudnutý majetok, ktorý nadobudli, i duše, ktoré získali v Chárane, a vyšli, aby išli do zeme Kanaána, a prišli do zeme Kanaána.

⁵And Abram taketh Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother`s son, and all their substance that they have gained, and the persons that they have obtained in Charan; and they go out to go towards the land of Canaan; and they come in to the land of Canaan.

⁶A Abram prešiel zem až po miesto Sichem, až k dubu Móre. A vtedy bol v zemi Kananej.

⁶And Abram passeth over into the land, unto the place Shechem, unto the oak of Moreh; and the Canaanite [is] then in the land.

⁷A Hospodin sa ukázal Abramovi a riekol: Tvojmu semenu dám túto zem. A postavil tam oltár Hospodinovi, ktorý sa mu ukázal.

⁷And Jehovah appeareth unto Abram, and saith, `To thy seed I give this land;` and he buildeth there an altar to Jehovah, who hath appeared unto him.

⁸Potom sa poberal odtiaľ k vrchu, ktorý je od východu Bét-ela, kde postavil svoj stán, takže mu bol Bét-el od mora, od západu, a Haj od východu, a postavil tam Hospodinovi oltár a vzýval meno Hospodinovo.

⁸And he removeth from thence towards a mountain at the east of Beth-El, and stretcheth out the tent (Beth-El at the west, and Hai at the east), and he buildeth there an altar to Jehovah, and preacheth in the name of Jehovah.

⁹A odtiaľ sa pomaly rušal Abram na juh.

⁹And Abram journeyeth, going on and journeying towards the south.

¹⁰Potom povstal hlad v zemi, a Abram odišiel dolu do Egypta, aby sa tam zdržoval do času jako hosť, pretože bol veľký hlad v zemi.

¹⁰And there is a famine in the land, and Abram goeth down towards Egypt to sojourn there, for the famine [is] grievous in the land;

¹¹A stalo sa, keď sa už priblížil, aby vošiel do Egypta, že povedal Sáraji, svojej žene: Nože hľa, viem, že si ty žena krásneho vzozrenia.

¹¹and it cometh to pass as he hath drawn near to enter Egypt, that he saith unto Sarai his wife, `Lo, I pray thee, I have known that thou [art] a woman of beautiful appearance;

¹²A stane sa, keď ťa uvidia Egypťania, že povedia: To je jeho žena! A tak mňa zabijú a teba nechajú žiť.

¹²and it hath come to pass that the Egyptians see thee, and they have said, `This [is] his wife,` and they have slain me, and thee they keep alive:

¹³Hovor tedy, prosím, že si moja sestra, aby mi bolo dobre za teba, a moja duša bude žiť pre teba.

¹³say, I pray thee, thou [art] my sister, so that it is well with me because of thee, and my soul hath lived for thy sake.`

¹⁴A stalo sa, keď vošiel Abram do Egypta, že videli Egypťania ženu, že je veľmi krásna.

¹⁴And it cometh to pass, at the entering of Abram into Egypt, that the Egyptians see the woman that she [is] exceeding fair;

¹⁵A uvidiac ju kniežatá faraonove chválili ju faraonovi, a žena bola vzatá do domu faraonovho.

¹⁵and princes of Pharaoh see her, and praise her unto Pharaoh, and the woman is taken [to] Pharaoh`s house;

¹⁶A Abramovi robili dobra za ňu, a mal drobný dobytok, ovce a kozy, a voly a oslov a sluhov a dievky a oslice a veľblúdov.

¹⁶and to Abram he hath done good because of her, and he hath sheep and oxen, and he-asses, and men-servants, and handmaids, and she-asses, and camels.

¹⁷Ale Hospodin bil faraona veľkými ranami i jeho dom pre Sáraj, ženu Abramovu.

¹⁷And Jehovah plagueth Pharaoh and his house — great plagues — for the matter of Sarai, Abram`s wife.

¹⁸Vtedy povolal faraon Abrama a povedal: Čo si mi to urobil? Prečo si mi neoznámil, že je to tvoja žena?

¹⁸And Pharaoh calleth for Abram, and saith, `What [is] this thou hast done to me? why hast thou not declared to me that she [is] thy wife?

¹⁹Prečo si hovoril: Je moja sestra? A ja som si ju vzal za ženu. A tak teraz hľa, tu máš svoju ženu, vezmi a iď!

¹⁹Why hast thou said, She [is] my sister, and I take her to myself for a wife? and now, lo, thy wife, take and go.`

²⁰A faraon rozkázal o ňom svojim mužom, a poslali ho preč i jeho ženu i so všetkým, čo bolo jeho.

²⁰And Pharaoh chargeth men concerning him, and they send him away, and his wife, an all that he hath.
