And from the earth the Lord God made every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and took them to the man to see what names he would give them: and whatever name he gave to any living thing, that was its name.

And the Lord God said to the woman, What have you done? And the woman said, I was tricked by the deceit of the snake and I took it.

And he said, What have you done? the voice of your brother's blood is crying to me from the earth.

And, awaking from his wine, Noah saw what his youngest son had done to him, and he said,

And the Lord said, See, they are all one people and have all one language; and this is only the start of what they may do: and now it will not be possible to keep them from any purpose of theirs.

Then Pharaoh sent for Abram, and said, What have you done to me? why did you not say that she was your wife?

And Abram said, What will you give me? for I have no child and this Eliezer of Damascus will have all my wealth after me.

And the Lord said, Am I to keep back from Abraham the knowledge of what I do;

For I have made him mine so that he may give orders to his children and those of his line after him, to keep the ways of the Lord, to do what is good and right: so that the Lord may do to Abraham as he has said.

And he said, Let not the Lord be angry with me if I say, What if there are thirty there? And he said, I will not do it if there are thirty.

And he said, See now, I have undertaken to put my thoughts before the Lord: what if there are twenty there? And he said, I will have mercy because of the twenty.

Then Abimelech sent for Abraham, and said, What have you done to us? what wrong have I done you that you have put on me and on my kingdom so great a sin? You have done to me things which are not to be done.

Then Abimelech said, What are these seven lambs which you have put on one side?

And your seed will be a blessing to all the nations of the earth, because you have done what I gave you orders to do.

My lord, give ear to me: the value of the land is four hundred shekels; what is that between me and you? so put your dead to rest there.

And he said, O Lord, the God of my master Abraham, let me do well in what I have undertaken this day, and give your mercy to my master Abraham.

And when he saw the nose-ring and the ornaments on his sister's hands, and when she gave him word of what the man had said to her, then he went out to the man who was waiting with the camels by the water-spring.

And I said to my master, What if the woman will not come with me?

And now, say if you will do what is good and right for my master or not, in order that it may be clear to me what I have to do.

And Esau said, Truly, I am at the point of death: what profit is the birthright to me?

Then Abimelech said, What have you done to us? one of the people might well have had connection with your wife, and the sin would have been ours.

Now, my son, do what I say.

And Isaac answering said, But I have made him your master, and have given him all his brothers for servants; I have made him strong with grain and wine: what then am I to do for you, my son?

Then Rebekah, hearing what Esau had said, sent for Jacob, her younger son, and said to him, It seems that your brother Esau is purposing to put you to death.

So now, my son, do what I say: go quickly to Haran, to my brother Laban;

Till the memory of what you have done to him is past and he is no longer angry: then I will send word for you to come back; are the two of you to be taken from me in one day?

Then Rebekah said to Isaac, My life is a weariness to me because of the daughters of Heth: if Jacob takes a wife from among the daughters of Heth, such as these, the women of this land, of what use will my life be to me?

And truly, I will be with you, and will keep you wherever you go, guiding you back again to this land; and I will not give you up till I have done what I have said to you.

Then Laban said to Jacob, Because you are my brother are you to be my servant for nothing? say now, what is your payment to be?

And in the morning Jacob saw that it was Leah: and he said to Laban, What have you done to me? was I not working for you so that I might have Rachel? why have you been false to me?

Say then what your payment is to be and I will give it.

Then Jacob said, You have seen what I have done for you, and how your cattle have done well under my care.

And Laban said, What am I to give you? And Jacob said, Do not give me anything; but I will again take up the care of your flock if you will only do this for me:

And Jacob saw that Laban's feeling for him was no longer what it had been before.

And he said to them, It is clear to me that your father's feeling is no longer what it was to me; but the God of my father has been with me

And he said, See how all the he-goats are banded and marked and coloured: for I have seen what Laban has done to you.

Then Rachel and Leah said to him in answer, What part or heritage is there for us in our father's house?

As for your gods, if anyone of us has them, let him be put to death: make search before us all for what is yours, and take it. For Jacob had no knowledge that Rachel had taken them.

Then Jacob was angry with Laban, and said, What crime or sin have I done that you have come after me with such passion?

Now that you have made search through all my goods, what have you seen which is yours? Make it clear now before my people and your people, so that they may be judges between us.

Then Laban, answering, said, These women are my daughters and these children my children, the flocks and all you see are mine: what now may I do for my daughters and for their children?

And he gave the same orders to the second and the third and to all those who were with the herds, saying, This is what you are to say to Esau when you see him;

Then he said, What is your name? And he said, Jacob.

Then Jacob said, What is your name? And he said, What is my name to you? Then he gave him a blessing.

And he said, What were all those herds which I saw on the way? And Jacob said, They were an offering so that I might have grace in my lord's eyes.

But Esau said, I have enough; keep what is yours, my brother, for yourself.

And Esau said, Then keep some of my men with you. And he said, What need is there for that, if my lord is pleased with me?

Now Jacob had word of what Shechem had done to his daughter; but his sons were in the fields with the cattle, and Jacob said nothing till they came.

But the sons of Jacob gave a false answer to Shechem and Hamor his father, because of what had been done to Dinah their sister.

And the sons of Jacob came on them when they were wounded and made waste the town because of what had been done to their sister;

And he gave word of it to his father and his brothers; but his father protesting said, What sort of a dream is this? am I and your mother and your brothers to go down on our faces to the earth before you?

And a man saw him wandering in the country, and said to him, What are you looking for?

Let us now put him to death and put his body into one of these holes, and we will say, An evil beast has put him to death: then we will see what becomes of his dreams.

And Judah said to his brothers, What profit is there in putting our brother to death and covering up his blood?

He went back to his brothers, and said, The child is gone; what am I to do?

Then Judah said to Onan, Go in to your brother's wife and do what it is right for a husband's brother to do; make her your wife and get offspring for your brother.

And what he did was evil in the eyes of the Lord, so that he put him to death, like his brother.

And turning to her by the roadside, he said to her, Let me come in to you; for he had no idea that she was his daughter-in-law. And she said, What will you give me as my price?

And he said, I will give you a young goat from the flock. And she said, What will you give me as a sign till you send it?

And he said, What would you have? And she said, Your ring and its cord and the stick in your hand. So he gave them to her and went in to her, and she became with child by him.

But then he took his hand back again, and his brother came first to birth: and the woman said, What an opening you have made for yourself! So he was named Perez.

But he would not, and said to her, You see that my master keeps no account of what I do in his house, and has put all his property in my control;

And hearing his wife's account of what his servant had done, he became very angry.

And the captain put them in Joseph's care, and he did what was needed for them; and they were kept in prison for some time.

Then they said to him, We have had a dream, and no one is able to give us the sense. And Joseph said, Does not the sense of dreams come from God? what was your dream?

Then Joseph said, These two dreams have the same sense: God has made clear to Pharaoh what he is about to do.

As I said to Pharaoh before, God has made clear to him what he is about to do.

And come back to me with your youngest brother, so that your words may be seen to be true, and you will not be put to death. This is what you are to do.

And he said to his brothers, My money has been given back: it is in my bag; then their hearts became full of fear, and turning to one another they said, What is this which God has done to us?

So they took what their father said for the man, and twice as much money in their hands, and Benjamin, and went on their journey to Egypt, and came before Joseph.

And Joseph said, What is this thing which you have done? had you no thought that such a man as I would have power to see what is secret?

And Judah said, What are we to say to my lord? how may we put ourselves right in his eyes? God has made clear the sin of your servants: now we are in your hands, we and the man in whose bag your cup was seen.

Now when Pharaoh sends for you and says, What is your business?

And Pharaoh said to them, What is your business? And they said, Your servants are keepers of sheep, as our fathers were before us.

Only he did not take the land of the priests, for the priests had their food given them by Pharaoh, and having what Pharaoh gave them, they had no need to give up their land.

Benjamin is a wolf, searching for meat: in the morning he takes his food, and in the evening he makes division of what he has taken.
