And early in the morning they took an oath one to the other: then Isaac sent them away and they went on their way in peace.

Now Isaac's words to his son were said in Rebekah's hearing. Then Esau went out to get the meat.

So he went and got them and took them to his mother: and she made a meal to his father's taste.

And Jacob went near his father Isaac: and he put his hands on him; and he said, The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.

So Isaac sent Jacob away: and he went to Paddan-aram, to Laban, son of Bethuel the Aramaean, the brother of Rebekah, the mother of Jacob and Esau.

So Esau went to Ishmael and took Mahalath, the daughter of Abraham's son Ishmael, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife in addition to the wives he had.

So Jacob went out from Beer-sheba to go to Haran.

And coming to a certain place, he made it his resting-place for the night, for the sun had gone down; and he took one of the stones which were there, and putting it under his head he went to sleep in that place.

Then Jacob went on his journey till he came to the land of the children of the East.

And Rachel, hearing from Jacob that he was her father's relation and that he was the son of Rebekah, went running to give her father news of it.

And in the evening he took Leah, his daughter, and gave her to him, and he went in to her.

Then Jacob took Rachel as his wife, and his love for her was greater than his love for Leah; and he went on working for Laban for another seven years.

So she gave him her servant Bilhah as a wife, and Jacob went in to her.

In the evening, when Jacob came in from the field, Leah went out to him and said, Tonight you are to come to me, for I have given my son's love-fruits as a price for you. And he went in to her that night.

And Jacob went away secretly, without giving news of his flight to Laban the Aramaean.

So he went away with all he had, and went across the River in the direction of the hill-country of Gilead.

And taking the men of his family with him, he went after him for seven days and overtook him in the hill-country of Gilead.

So Laban went into Jacob's tent and into Leah's tent, and into the tents of the two servant-women, but they were not there; and he came out of Leah's tent and went into Rachel's.

This was my condition, wasted by heat in the day and by the bitter cold at night; and sleep went from my eyes.

And early in the morning Laban, after kissing and blessing his daughters, went on his way back to his country.

I am less than nothing in comparison with all your mercies and your faith to me your servant; for with only my stick in my hand I went across Jordan, and now I have become two armies.

So the servants with the offerings went on in front, and he himself took his rest that night in the tents with his people.

And in the night he got up, and taking with him his two wives and the two servant-women and his eleven children, he went over the river Jabbok.

And while he was going past Peniel, the sun came up. And he went with unequal steps because of his damaged leg.

And he himself, going before them, went down on his face to the earth seven times till he came near his brother.

Then the servants and their children came near, and went down on their faces.

So Esau, turning back that day, went on his way to Seir.

And Jacob went on to Succoth, where he made a house for himself and put up tents for his cattle: for this reason the place was named Succoth.

Now Dinah, the daughter whom Leah had by Jacob, went out to see the women of that country.

Then his heart went out in love to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, and he said comforting words to her.

Then Hamor and Shechem, his son, went to the meeting-place of their town, and said to the men of the town,

And Hamor and his son they put to death with the sword, and they took Dinah from Shechem's house and went away.

And let us go up to Beth-el: and there I will make an altar to God, who gave me an answer in the day of my trouble, and was with me wherever I went.

So they went on their journey: and the fear of God was on the towns round about, so that they made no attack on the sons of Jacob.

Then God went up from him in the place where he had been talking with him.

So they went on from Beth-el; and while they were still some distance from Ephrath, the pains of birth came on Rachel and she had a hard time.

And in the hour when her life went from her (for death came to her), she gave the child the name Ben-oni: but his father gave him the name of Benjamin.

And Israel went journeying on and put up his tents on the other side of the tower of the flock.

Esau took his wives and his sons and his daughters, and all the people of his house, and his beasts and his cattle and all his goods which he had got together in the land of Canaan, and went into the land of Seir, away from his brother Jacob.

We were in the field, getting the grain stems together, and my grain kept upright, and yours came round and went down on the earth before mine.

Now his brothers went to keep watch over their father's flock in Shechem.

And the man said, They have gone away from here, for they said in my hearing, Let us go to Dothan. So Joseph went after them and came up with them at Dothan.

And some traders from Midian went by; so pulling Joseph up out of the hole, they gave him to the Ishmaelites for twenty bits of silver, and they took him to Egypt.

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

Then Jacob, giving signs of grief, put on haircloth, and went on weeping for his son day after day.

Now at that time, Judah went away from his brothers and became the friend of a man of Adullam named Hirah.

But Onan, seeing that the offspring would not be his, went in to his brother's wife, but let his seed go on to the earth, so that he might not get offspring for his brother.

Then Judah said to Tamar, his daughter-in-law, Go back to your father's house and keep yourself as a widow till my son Shelah becomes a man: for he had in his mind the thought that death might come to him as it had come to his brothers. So Tamar went back to her father's house.

And after a time, Bath-shua, Judah's wife, came to her end; and after Judah was comforted for her loss, he went to Timnah, where they were cutting the wool of his sheep, and his friend Hirah of Adullam went with him.

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.

Then she got up and went away and took off her veil and put on her widow's clothing.

So he went back to Judah, and said, I have not seen her, and the men of the place say that there is no such woman there.

And day after day she went on requesting Joseph to come to her and be her lover, but he would not give ear to her.

Now one day he went into the house to do his work; and not one of the men of the house was inside.

And pulling at his coat, she said, Come to my bed; but slipping out of his coat, he went running away.

And hearing it he went running out without his coat.

And when I gave a loud cry he went running out without his coat.

But he went to sleep again and had a second dream, in which he saw seven heads of grain, full and good, all on one stem.

And he made him take his seat in the second of his carriages; and they went before him crying, Make way! So he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt.

And Pharaoh gave Joseph the name of Zaphnath-paaneah; and he gave him Asenath, the daughter of Poti-phera, the priest of On, to be his wife. So Joseph went through all the land of Egypt.

Now Joseph was thirty years old when he came before Pharaoh, king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from before the face of Pharaoh and went through all the land of Egypt.

So Joseph's ten brothers went down to get grain from Egypt.

Now Joseph was ruler over all the land, and it was he who gave out the grain to all the people of the land; and Joseph's brothers came before him and went down on their faces to the earth.

And turning away from them, he was overcome with weeping; then he went on talking to them again and took Simeon and put chains on him before their eyes.

Then they put the bags of grain on their asses and went away.

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.

So they went up to Joseph's chief servant at the door of the house,

And when Joseph came in, they gave him the things which they had for him, and went down to the earth before him.

And they said, Your servant, our father, is well, he is still living. And they went down on their faces before him.

Then Joseph's heart went out to his brother, and he went quickly into his room, for he was overcome with weeping.

Then in bitter grief they put the bags on the asses again and went back to the town.

So Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house; and he was still there: and they went down on their faces before him.

And we said to my lord, His father will not let him go; for if he went away his father would come to his death.

And when we went back to your servant, our father, we gave him an account of my lord's words.

The one went away from me, and I said, Truly he has come to a violent death; and from that time I have not seen him,

And news of these things went through Pharaoh's house, and it was said that Joseph's brothers were come; and it seemed good to Pharaoh and his servants.

So they went up from Egypt and came to the land of Canaan, to their father Jacob.

And Israel went on his journey with all he had, and came to Beer-sheba, where he made offerings to the God of his father Isaac.

Then Jacob went on from Beer-sheba; and the sons of Jacob took their father and their little ones and their wives in the carts which Pharaoh had sent for them.

And Joseph got his carriage ready and went to Goshen for the meeting with his father; and when he came before him, he put his arms round his neck, weeping.

Then Joseph went to Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brothers with their flocks and their herds and all they have, are come from Canaan, and are now in the land of Goshen.

And Jacob gave Pharaoh his blessing, and went out from before him.

Then Joseph took them from between his knees, and went down on his face to the earth.

But because you were uncontrolled, the first place will not be yours; for you went up to your father's bed, even his bride-bed, and made it unclean.

And when Jacob had come to the end of these words to his sons, stretching himself on his bed, he gave up his spirit, and went the way of his people.

And the forty days needed for making the body ready went by: and there was weeping for him among the Egyptians for seventy days.

So Joseph went up to put his father in his last resting-place; and with him went all the servants of Pharaoh, and the chief men of his house and all the chiefs of the land of Egypt,

And carriages went up with him and horsemen, a great army.

And when his father had been put to rest, Joseph and his brothers and all who had gone with him, went back to Egypt.

Then his brothers went, and falling at his feet, said, Truly, we are your servants.

Now Joseph and all his father's family went on living in Egypt: and the years of Joseph's life were a hundred and ten.

And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the girl went and got the child's mother.

Now when Moses had become a man, one day he went out to his people and saw how hard their work was; and he saw an Egyptian giving blows to a Hebrew, one of his people.

And he went out the day after and saw two of the Hebrews fighting: and he said to him who was in the wrong, Why are you fighting your brother?

Now when Pharaoh had news of this, he would have put Moses to death. But Moses went in flight from Pharaoh into the land of Midian: and he took his seat by a water-spring.

And God went on to say to Moses, Say to the children of Israel, The Lord, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has sent me to you: this is my name for ever, and this is my sign to all generations.

And he said, Put it down on the earth. And he put it down on the earth and it became a snake; and Moses went running from it.

And Moses went back to Jethro, his father-in-law, and said to him, Let me go back now to my relations in Egypt and see if they are still living. And Jethro said to Moses, Go in peace.

And Moses took his wife and his sons and put them on an ass and went back to the land of Egypt: and he took the rod of God in his hand.

And the Lord said to Aaron, Go into the waste land and you will see Moses. So he went and came across Moses at the mountain of God, and gave him a kiss.
