And she said, Take a drink, my lord: and quickly letting down her vessel onto her hand, she gave him a drink.

And straight away she took down her vessel from her arm, and said, Take a drink, and I will get water for your camels.

Then I bowed down, worshiped the Lord, and praised the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, who guided me on the right way to take the granddaughter of my master’s brother for his son.

And they blessed Rebekah and said to her, Our sister! become thou, thousands of ten thousands, - And let thy seed take possession of the gate of them that hate them!

Then take it to your father to eat so that he may bless you before he dies.”

And Jacob said, I am Esau, your oldest son; I have done as you said: come now, be seated and take of my meat, so that you may give me a blessing.

And he said, Put it before me and I will take of my son's meat, so that I may give you a blessing. And he put it before him and he took it; and he gave him wine, and he had a drink.

And he made ready a meal, good to the taste, and took it to his father, and said to him, Let my father get up and take of his son's meat, so that you may give me a blessing.

And Jacob will rise early in the morning, and take the stone which he put at his head, and will set it a pillar, and pour oil upon its head.

Then Jacob made a vow, saying, “If God will be with me and will keep me on this journey that I take, and will give me food to eat and garments to wear,

So that I come again to my father's house in peace, then I will take the Lord to be my God,

Finally, Jacob said to Laban, “Give me my wife, for my time [of service] is completed, so that I may take her to me [as my wife].”

And it will be in the evening, and he will take Leah his daughter, and bring her to him, and he will go in to her.

That made Jacob angry with Rachel, so he asked her, "Can I take God's place, who has not allowed you to conceive?"

She said, “Here, take my maid Bilhah and go in to her; and [when the baby comes] she shall deliver it [while sitting] on my knees, so that by her I may also have children [to count as my own].”

And Leah will see that she stood from bringing forth, and she will take Zilpah her maid and will give her to Jacob for a wife.

But Leah replied to her, “Isn’t it enough that you have taken my husband? Now you also want to take my son’s mandrakes?”

“Well,” Rachel said, “you can sleep with him tonight in exchange for your son’s mandrakes.”

She conceived and bore a son, and said, “God has taken away my shame.”

And it came to pass, when Rachel had borne Joseph, that Jacob said unto Laban, Let me go that I may take my journey, unto my place, and to my land.

Come, give me my wives and my children for whom I have served thee and let me take my journey, - for, thou, knowest my service wherewith I have served thee.

Laban asked, “What shall I give you?” Jacob replied, “You shall not give me anything. But if you will do this one thing for me [which I now propose], I will again pasture and keep your flock:

My integrity will testify for me later on. When you come to verify that I've taken only the wages we agreed on, if I have in my possession any goat that is not speckled or spotted or any sheep that is not dark-colored, it will be considered stolen."

He sent them as far away from Jacob as a three days' journey could take them.

And Jacob will take to himself a rod of green storax, and the almond tree, and the plane tree, and he will strip off of them the white strippings, uncovering the white which was upon the rods.

Now Jacob heard what Laban’s sons were saying: “Jacob has taken all that was our father’s and has built this wealth from what belonged to our father.”

God has taken away your father’s herds and given them to me.

In fact, all the wealth that God has taken away from our father belongs to us and to our children. So do whatever God has said to you.”

And he will take his brethren with him, and pursue after him a way of seven days: and he will overtake him in Mount Gilead.

And God came to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night, and said to him, Take care thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.

Then Laban said to Jacob, “What have you done? You have deceived me and taken my daughters away like prisoners of war!

It would be in the power of my hand to do you hurt; but the God of your father spoke to me last night, saying, Take care that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.

But, now, though thou, didst even take thy journey, because thou, didst sorely long, for the house of thy father,, wherefore didst thou steal away my gods?

Jacob answered, “I was afraid, for I thought you would take your daughters from me by force.

If you find your gods with anyone here, he will not live! Before our relatives, point out anything that is yours and take it.” Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen the idols.

Now Rachel had taken Laban’s household idols, put them in the saddlebag of the camel, and sat on them. Laban searched the whole tent but found nothing.

These twenty years I have been with you; your sheep and your goats have had young without loss, not one of your he-goats have I taken for food.

Animals torn by wild beasts I never brought to you; I always absorbed the loss myself. You always made me pay for every missing animal, whether it was taken by day or at night.

And Jacob will take a stone and raise up a pillar.

And Jacob will say to his brethren, Gather stones; and they will take stones and make a heap; and they will eat there upon the heap.

If you mistreat my daughters or take other wives, though no one is with us, understand that God will be a witness between you and me.”

And Jacob made an offering on the mountain, and gave orders to his people to take food: so they had a meal and took their rest that night on the mountain.

Take me away now from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau, for I am afraid of him, lest he shall come and smite me, the mother upon the sons.

And he will pass the night them in that night, and he will take from what came into his hand, a gift to Esau his brother.

And you are to say further, Jacob, your servant, is coming after us. For he said to himself, I will take away his wrath by the offering which I have sent on, and then I will come before him: it may be that I will have grace in his eyes.

And he will rise in that night and take his two wives and his two maids, and his eleven sons, and he will pass over the passage of Jabbok.

Andhewill take them and will cause them to pass through the torrent, and he will cause to pass through what is to him.

For this reason the children of Israel, even today, never take that muscle in the hollow of the leg as food, because the hollow of Jacob's leg was touched.

But Jacob said, “No, please! If I have found favor with you, take this gift from my hand. For indeed, I have seen your face, and it is like seeing God’s face, since you have accepted me.

Please take my present that was brought to you, because God has been gracious to me and I have everything I need.” So Jacob urged him until he accepted.

And he said, Let us take our journey, and go on, and I will go before thee.

And Shechem will see her, the son of Hamor the Hivite, chief of the land; will take her, and lie with her, and will humble her.

And Shechem will say to Hamor his father, saying, Take to me this maid for a wife.

Intermarry with us; give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves.

And ye shall dwell with us, and the land shall be before you; dwell ye and traffic in it, and take possession in it

Then we will give you our daughters, take your daughters for ourselves, live with you, and become one people.

But if you will not listen to us and be circumcised, then we will take our daughter and go.”

“These men are peaceful toward us,” they said. “Let them live in our land and move about in it, for indeed, the region is large enough for them. Let us take their daughters as our wives and give our daughters to them.

And it will be in the third day, in their having pain, and the two sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brethren, will take a man his sword, and will go against the city securely, and will kill every male.

And they killed Hamor and Shechem his son, with the mouth of the sword; and they will take Dinah from the house of Shechem, and go forth.

their flock and their herd, and their asses, and that which is in the city, and that which is in the field, have they taken;
