And the whole earthH776 was of oneH259 languageH8193, and of oneH259 speechH1697. {language: Heb. lip.} {speech: Heb. words}
And it came to pass, as they journeyedH5265 from the eastH6924, that they foundH4672 a plainH1237 in the landH776 of ShinarH8152; and they dweltH3427 there. {from…: or, eastward}
And they saidH559 oneH376 to anotherH7453, Go toH3051, let us makeH3835 brickH3843, and burnH8313 them throughlyH8316. And they had brickH3843 for stoneH68, and slimeH2564 hadH1961 they for morterH2563. {they said…: Heb. a man said to his neighbour} {burn…: Heb. burn them to a burning}
And they saidH559, Go toH3051, let us buildH1129 us a cityH5892 and a towerH4026, whose topH7218 may reach unto heavenH8064; and let us makeH6213 us a nameH8034, lest we be scattered abroadH6327 upon the faceH6440 of the whole earthH776.
And the LORDH3068 came downH3381 to seeH7200 the cityH5892 and the towerH4026, which the childrenH1121 of menH120 buildedH1129.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559, Behold, the peopleH5971 is oneH259, and they have all oneH259 languageH8193; and this they beginH2490 to doH6213: and now nothingH3808+H3605 will be restrainedH1219 from them, which they have imaginedH2161 to doH6213.
Go toH3051, let us go downH3381, and there confoundH1101 their languageH8193, thatH834 they may not understandH8085 oneH376 another'sH7453 speechH8193.
So the LORDH3068 scattered them abroadH6327 from thenceH8033 upon the faceH6440 of all the earthH776: and they left offH2308 to buildH1129 the cityH5892.
Therefore is the name of itH8034 calledH7121 BabelH894; because the LORDH3068 did there confoundH1101 the languageH8193 of all the earthH776: and from thence didH6327 the LORDH3068 scatter them abroadH6327 upon the faceH6440 of all the earthH776. {Babel: that is, Confusion}
These are the generationsH8435 of ShemH8035: ShemH8035 was an hundredH3967 yearsH8141 oldH1121, and begatH3205 ArphaxadH775 two yearsH8141 afterH310 the floodH3999:
And ShemH8035 livedH2421 afterH310 he begatH3205 ArphaxadH775 fiveH2568 hundredH3967 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323.
And ArphaxadH775 livedH2425 fiveH2568 and thirtyH7970 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 SalahH7974:
And ArphaxadH775 livedH2421 afterH310 he begatH3205 SalahH7974 fourH702 hundredH3967+H8141 and threeH7969 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323.
And SalahH7974 livedH2425 thirtyH7970 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 EberH5677:
And SalahH7974 livedH2421 afterH310 he begatH3205 EberH5677 fourH702 hundredH3967+H8141 and threeH7969 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323.
And EberH5677 livedH2421 fourH702 and thirtyH7970 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 PelegH6389: {Peleg: Gr. Phalec}
And EberH5677 livedH2421 afterH310 he begatH3205 PelegH6389 fourH702 hundredH3967+H8141 and thirtyH7970 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323.
And PelegH6389 livedH2421 thirtyH7970 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 ReuH7466:
And PelegH6389 livedH2421 afterH310 he begatH3205 ReuH7466 two hundredH3967+H8141 and nineH8672 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323.
And ReuH7466 livedH2421 twoH8147 and thirtyH7970 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 SerugH8286: {Serug: Gr. Saruch}
And ReuH7466 livedH2421 afterH310 he begatH3205 SerugH8286 two hundredH3967+H8141 and sevenH7651 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323.
And SerugH8286 livedH2421 thirtyH7970 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 NahorH5152:
And SerugH8286 livedH2421 afterH310 he begatH3205 NahorH5152 two hundredH3967 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323.
And NahorH5152 livedH2421 nineH8672 and twentyH6242 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 TerahH8646: {Terah: Gr. Thara}
And NahorH5152 livedH2421 afterH310 he begatH3205 TerahH8646 an hundredH3967+H8141 and nineteenH6240+H8672 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323.
And TerahH8646 livedH2421 seventyH7657 yearsH8141, and begatH3205 AbramH87, NahorH5152, and HaranH2039.
Now these are the generationsH8435 of TerahH8646: TerahH8646 begatH3205 AbramH87, NahorH5152, and HaranH2039; and HaranH2039 begatH3205 LotH3876.
And HaranH2039 diedH4191 beforeH6440 his fatherH1 TerahH8646 in the landH776 of his nativityH4138, in UrH218 of the ChaldeesH3778.
And AbramH87 and NahorH5152 tookH3947 them wivesH802: the nameH8034 of Abram'sH87 wifeH802 was SaraiH8297; and the nameH8034 of Nahor'sH5152 wifeH802, MilcahH4435, the daughterH1323 of HaranH2039, the fatherH1 of MilcahH4435, and the fatherH1 of IscahH3252.
But SaraiH8297 was barrenH6135; she had no childH2056.
And TerahH8646 tookH3947 AbramH87 his sonH1121, and LotH3876 the sonH1121 of HaranH2039 his son'sH1121 sonH1121, and SaraiH8297 his daughter in lawH3618, his sonH1121 Abram'sH87 wifeH802; and they went forthH3318 with them from UrH218 of the ChaldeesH3778, to goH3212 into the landH776 of CanaanH3667; and they cameH935 unto HaranH2771, and dweltH3427 there.
And the daysH3117 of TerahH8646 were two hundredH3967+H8141 and fiveH2568 yearsH8141: and TerahH8646 diedH4191 in HaranH2771.

And TerahH8646 tookH3947 AbramH87 his sonH1121, and LotH3876 the sonH1121 of HaranH2039 his son'sH1121 sonH1121, and SaraiH8297 his daughter in lawH3618, his sonH1121 Abram'sH87 wifeH802; and they went forthH3318 with them from UrH218 of the ChaldeesH3778, to goH3212 into the landH776 of CanaanH3667; and they cameH935 unto HaranH2771, and dweltH3427 there.
So AbramH87 departedH3212, as the LORDH3068 had spokenH1696 unto him; and LotH3876 wentH3212 with him: and AbramH87 was seventyH7657+H8141 and fiveH2568 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he departedH3318 out of HaranH2771.
And AbramH87 went upH5927 out of EgyptH4714, he, and his wifeH802, and all that he had, and LotH3876 with him, into the southH5045.
And AbramH87 was veryH3966 richH3513 in cattleH4735, in silverH3701, and in goldH2091.
And he wentH3212 on his journeysH4550 from the southH5045 even to BethelH1008, unto the placeH4725 where his tentH168 had beenH1961 at the beginningH8462, between BethelH1008 and HaiH5857;
Unto the placeH4725 of the altarH4196, which he had madeH6213 there at the firstH7223: and there AbramH87 calledH7121 on the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068.
And LotH3876 also, which wentH1980 withH854 AbramH87, had flocksH6629, and herdsH1241, and tentsH168.
And the landH776 was not able to bearH5375 them, that they might dwellH3427 togetherH3162: for their substanceH7399 was greatH7227, so that they couldH3201 not dwellH3427 togetherH3162.
And there was a strifeH7379 between the herdmenH7462 of Abram'sH87 cattleH4735 and the herdmenH7462 of Lot'sH3876 cattleH4735: and the CanaaniteH3669 and the PerizziteH6522 dwelledH3427 then in the landH776.
And AbramH87 saidH559 unto LotH3876, Let there beH1961 noH408 strifeH4808, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmenH7462 and thy herdmenH7462; for weH582 be brethrenH251. {brethren: Heb. men brethren}
Is not the whole landH776 before theeH6440? separate thyselfH6504, I pray thee, from me: if thou wilt take the left handH8040, then I will go to the rightH3231; or if thou depart to the right handH3225, then I will go to the leftH8041.
And LotH3876 lifted upH5375 his eyesH5869, and beheldH7200 all the plainH3603 of JordanH3383, that it was well wateredH4945 every where, beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 destroyedH7843 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017, even as the gardenH1588 of the LORDH3068, like the landH776 of EgyptH4714, as thou comestH935 unto ZoarH6820.
Then LotH3876 choseH977 him all the plainH3603 of JordanH3383; and LotH3876 journeyedH5265 eastH6924: and they separated themselvesH6504 the oneH376 from the otherH251.
And they tookH3947 LotH3876, Abram'sH87 brother'sH251 sonH1121, who dweltH3427 in SodomH5467, and his goodsH7399, and departedH3212.
And there cameH935 twoH8147 angelsH4397 to SodomH5467 at evenH6153; and LotH3876 satH3427 in the gateH8179 of SodomH5467: and LotH3876 seeingH7200 them rose upH6965 to meetH7125 them; and he bowedH7812 himself with his faceH639 toward the groundH776;
And he saidH559, Behold now, my lordsH113, turn inH5493, I pray you, into your servant'sH5650 houseH1004, and tarry all nightH3885, and washH7364 your feetH7272, and ye shall rise up earlyH7925, and goH1980 on your waysH1870. And they saidH559, Nay; but we will abideH3885 in the streetH7339 all nightH3885.
And he pressedH6484 upon them greatlyH3966; and they turned inH5493 unto him, and enteredH935 into his houseH1004; and he madeH6213 them a feastH4960, and did bakeH644 unleavened breadH4682, and they did eatH398.
But before they lay downH7901, the menH582 of the cityH5892, even the menH582 of SodomH5467, compassedH5437 the houseH1004 roundH5437, both oldH2205 and youngH5288, all the peopleH5971 from every quarterH7097:
And they calledH7121 unto LotH3876, and saidH559 unto him, Where are the menH582 which came inH935 to thee this nightH3915? bring them outH3318 unto us, that we may knowH3045 them.
And LotH3876 went outH3318 at the doorH6607 unto them, and shutH5462 the doorH1817 after himH310,
And saidH559, I pray you, brethrenH251, do not so wickedlyH7489.
Behold now, I have twoH8147 daughtersH1323 which have not knownH3045 manH376; let me, I pray you, bring them outH3318 unto you, and doH6213 ye to them as is goodH2896 in your eyesH5869: only unto theseH411 menH582 doH6213 nothingH408+H1697; for therefore cameH935 they under the shadowH6738 of my roofH6982.
And they saidH559, StandH5066 backH1973. And they saidH559 again, This oneH259 fellow came inH935 to sojournH1481, and he will needsH8199 be a judgeH8199: now will we deal worseH7489 with thee, than with them. And they pressedH6484 soreH3966 upon the manH376, even LotH3876, and came nearH5066 to breakH7665 the doorH1817.
But the menH582 put forthH7971 their handH3027, and pulledH935 LotH3876 into the houseH1004 to them, and shutH5462 to the doorH1817.
And they smoteH5221 the menH582 that were at the doorH6607 of the houseH1004 with blindnessH5575, both smallH6996 and greatH1419: so that they weariedH3811 themselves to findH4672 the doorH6607.
And the menH582 saidH559 unto LotH3876, Hast thou hereH6311 anyH4310 besides? son in lawH2860, and thy sonsH1121, and thy daughtersH1323, and whatsoeverH834 thou hast in the cityH5892, bring them outH3318 of this placeH4725:
For weH587 will destroyH7843+H853 this placeH4725, because the cry of themH6818 is waxen greatH1431 beforeH854 the faceH6440 of the LORDH3068; and the LORDH3068 hath sentH7971 us to destroyH7843 it.
And LotH3876 went outH3318, and spakeH1696 unto his sons in lawH2860, which marriedH3947 his daughtersH1323, and saidH559, UpH6965, get you outH3318 of this placeH4725; for the LORDH3068 will destroyH7843 this cityH5892. But he seemed as one that mockedH6711 untoH5869 his sons in lawH2860.
And whenH3644 the morningH7837 aroseH5927, then the angelsH4397 hastenedH213 LotH3876, sayingH559, AriseH6965, takeH3947 thy wifeH802, and thy twoH8147 daughtersH1323, which are hereH4672; lest thou be consumedH5595 in the iniquityH5771 of the cityH5892. {are here: Heb. are found} {iniquity: or, punishment}
And while he lingeredH4102, the menH582 laid holdH2388 upon his handH3027, and upon the handH3027 of his wifeH802, and upon the handH3027 of his twoH8147 daughtersH1323; the LORDH3068 being mercifulH2551 unto him: and they brought him forthH3318, and set himH3240 withoutH2351 the cityH5892.
And it came to pass, when they had brought them forthH3318 abroadH2351, that he saidH559, EscapeH4422 forH5921 thy lifeH5315; lookH5027 not behind theeH310, neither stayH5975 thou in all the plainH3603; escapeH4422 to the mountainH2022, lest thou be consumedH5595.
And LotH3876 saidH559 unto them, Oh, not so, my LordH113:
Behold now, thy servantH5650 hath foundH4672 graceH2580 in thy sightH5869, and thou hast magnifiedH1431 thy mercyH2617, which thou hast shewedH6213 unto meH5978 in savingH2421 my lifeH5315; and I cannotH3201 escapeH4422 to the mountainH2022, lest some evilH7451 takeH1692 me, and I dieH4191:
Behold now, this cityH5892 is nearH7138 to fleeH5127 unto, and itH1931 is a little oneH4705: Oh, let me escapeH4422 thither, (is it not a little oneH4705?) and my soulH5315 shall liveH2421.
And he saidH559 unto him, SeeH2009, I have acceptedH5375 theeH6440 concerning this thingH1697 also, that I will not overthrowH2015 this cityH5892, for the whichH834 thou hast spokenH1696. {thee: Heb. thy face}
HasteH4116 thee, escapeH4422 thither; for I cannotH3201 doH6213 any thingH1697 till thou be comeH935 thither. Therefore the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 was calledH7121 ZoarH6820. {Zoar: that is, Little}
The sunH8121 was risenH3318 upon the earthH776 when LotH3876 enteredH935 into ZoarH6820. {risen: Heb. gone forth}
Then the LORDH3068 rainedH4305 upon SodomH5467 and upon GomorrahH6017 brimstoneH1614 and fireH784 from the LORDH3068 out of heavenH8064;
And he overthrewH2015 thoseH411 citiesH5892, and all the plainH3603, and all the inhabitantsH3427 of the citiesH5892, and that which grewH6780 upon the groundH127.
But his wifeH802 looked backH5027 from behind himH310, and she became a pillarH5333 of saltH4417.
And AbrahamH85 gat up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242 to the placeH4725 where he stoodH5975 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068:
And he lookedH8259 towardH6440 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017, and towardH6440 all the landH776 of the plainH3603, and beheldH7200, and, lo, the smokeH7008 of the countryH776 went upH5927 as the smokeH7008 of a furnaceH3536.
And it came to pass, when GodH430 destroyedH7843 the citiesH5892 of the plainH3603, that GodH430 rememberedH2142 AbrahamH85, and sentH7971 LotH3876 out of the midstH8432 of the overthrowH2018, when he overthrewH2015 the citiesH5892 in the whichH2004 LotH3876 dweltH3427.
