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

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:

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

²and I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make they 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 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.

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

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.

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 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.

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

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

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 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.

⁹A odtiaľ sa pomaly rušal Abram na juh.

⁹And Abram journeyed, going on still toward 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 was a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was sore 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 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:

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

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.

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; that it may be well with me for thy sake, and that my soul may live because of thee.

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

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

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

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

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

¹⁷And Jehovah plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because 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 called Abram, and said, What is this that thou hast done unto me? why didst thou not tell me that she was 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 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.

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

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