And thy name shall no more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of a multitude of nations have I made thee.

And God said to Abraham, And as for thee, thou shalt keep my covenant, thou and thy seed after thee in their generations.

And God said to Abraham, As to Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall be her name.

And Abraham fell on his face and laughed, and said in his heart, Shall a child be born to him that is a hundred years old? and shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear?

And Abraham said to God, Oh that Ishmael might live before thee!

And he left off talking with him; and God went up from Abraham.

And Abraham took Ishmael his son, and all who were born in his house, and all who were bought with his money every male among the people of Abraham's house and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin on that same day, as God had said to him.

And Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

In the selfsame day was Abraham circumcised, and Ishmael his son;

And Abraham hastened into the tent to Sarah, and said, Knead quickly three seahs of wheaten flour, and make cakes.

And Abraham ran to the herd, and took a calf tender and good, and gave it to the attendant; and he hasted to dress it.

Now Abraham and Sarah were old and advanced in age: it had ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.

And Jehovah said to Abraham, Why is this, that Sarah laughs, saying, Shall I indeed bear, when I am become old?

And the men rose up thence, and looked toward Sodom; and Abraham went with them to conduct them.

And Jehovah said, Shall I hide from Abraham what I am doing?

Since Abraham shall indeed become a great and mighty nation; and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him.

For I know him that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of Jehovah, to do righteousness and justice, in order that Jehovah may bring upon Abraham what he hath spoken of him.

And the men turned thence, and went towards Sodom; and Abraham remained yet standing before Jehovah.

And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also cause the righteous to perish with the wicked?

And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I have ventured to speak unto the Lord; I, who am dust and ashes.

And Jehovah went away when he had ended speaking to Abraham; and Abraham returned to his place.

And Abraham rose early in the morning and went to the place where he had stood before Jehovah;

And Abraham departed thence towards the south country, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourned at Gerar.

And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She is my sister. And Abimelech the king of Gerar sent and took Sarah.

And Abimelech called Abraham and said to him, What hast thou done to us? And in what have I sinned against thee, that thou hast brought on me, and on my kingdom, a great sin? Thou hast done to me deeds that ought not to be done.

And Abimelech said to Abraham, What hast thou seen that thou hast done this?

And Abraham said, Because I said, Surely the fear of God is not in this place, and they will kill me for my wife's sake.

And Abimelech took sheep and oxen, and bondmen and bondwomen, and gave them to Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife.

And Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abimelech, and his wife and his handmaids, and they bore children.

For Jehovah had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech because of Sarah Abraham's wife.

And Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the appointed time of which God had spoken to him.

And Abraham called the name of his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.

And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac, being eight days old, as God had commanded him.

And Abraham was a hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him.

And she said, Who would have said to Abraham, Sarah will suckle children? For I have borne him a son in his old age.

And the child grew, and was weaned. And Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned.

And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking.

And she said to Abraham, Cast out this handmaid and her son; for the son of this handmaid shall not inherit with my son with Isaac.

And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of his son.

And God said to Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad and because of thy handmaid: in all that Sarah hath said to thee hearken to her voice, for in Isaac shall a seed be called to thee.

And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and a flask of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder and the child, and sent her away. And she departed, and wandered about in the wilderness of Beer-sheba.

And it came to pass at that time that Abimelech, and Phichol the captain of his host, spoke to Abraham, saying, God is with thee in all that thou doest.

And Abraham said, I will swear.

And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of a well of water that Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.

And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them to Abimelech; and both of them made a covenant.

And Abraham set seven ewe-lambs of the flock by themselves.

And Abimelech said to Abraham, What mean these seven ewe-lambs, these which thou hast set by themselves?

On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place from afar.

And Abraham said to his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you.

And Abraham took the wood of the burnt-offering, and laid it on Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and the knife, and they went both of them together.

And Isaac spoke to Abraham his father, and said, My father! And he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood; but where is the sheep for a burnt-offering?

And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself with the sheep for a burnt-offering. And they went both of them together.

And they came to the place of which God had told him. And Abraham built the altar there, and piled the wood; and he bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood.

And Abraham stretched out his hand, and took the knife to slaughter his son.

And the Angel of Jehovah called to him from the heavens, and said, Abraham, Abraham! And he said, Here am I.

And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold, behind was a ram caught in the thicket by its horns; and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up for a burnt-offering instead of his son.

And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh; as it is said at the present day, On the mount of Jehovah will be provided.

And the Angel of Jehovah called to Abraham from the heavens a second time,

And Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beer-sheba. And Abraham dwelt at Beer-sheba.

And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she also has borne sons to thy brother Nahor:

(And Bethuel begot Rebecca.) These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.

And the sons of Heth answered Abraham, saying to him,

And Abraham rose up, and bowed down to the people of the land, to the sons of Heth,

And Ephron was dwelling among the sons of Heth. And Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham, in the ears of the sons of Heth, even of all that went in at the gate of his city, saying,

And Abraham bowed down before the people of the land;

And Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him,

And Abraham hearkened to Ephron; and Abraham weighed to Ephron the money that he had named in the ears of the sons of Heth four hundred shekels of silver, current with the merchant.

And after this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field at Machpelah, opposite to Mamre: that is Hebron, in the land of Canaan.

And the field and the cave that was in it were assured to Abraham for a possession of a sepulchre by the sons of Heth.

And Abraham was old, and advanced in age; and Jehovah had blessed Abraham in all things.

And Abraham said to his servant, the eldest of his house, who ruled over all that he had, Put thy hand, I pray thee, under my thigh,

And Abraham said to him, Beware that thou bring not my son thither again.

And the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and swore unto him concerning that matter.

And he said, Jehovah, God of my master Abraham, meet me, I pray thee, with thy blessing this day, and deal kindly with my master Abraham.

And it came to pass before he had ended speaking, that behold, Rebecca came out, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother; and she had her pitcher upon her shoulder.

and said, Blessed be Jehovah, God of my master Abraham, who has not withdrawn his loving-kindness and his faithfulness from my master; I being in the way, Jehovah has led me to the house of my master's brethren.

And he said, I am Abraham's servant.

And I came this day to the well, and said, Jehovah, God of my master Abraham, if now thou wilt prosper my way on which I go,

And I stooped, and bowed down before Jehovah; and I blessed Jehovah, God of my master Abraham, who has led me the right way to take my master's brother's daughter for his son.
