RF GEN 12:1 BOOK THE SECOND.
History of the house of Abraham.

The EVER-LIVING then said to Abram, "Depart from your native land, and from the home of your forefathers, to the land to which I will direct you.
RF GEN 12:2 And I will make you a great nation, and I will prosper and ennoble your name; and you shall be a benefactor;
RF GEN 12:3 and I will bless those who benefit you, and punish those who injure you, and all the nations of mankind shall become benefited from you."
RF GEN 12:4 So Abram departed, as the EVER-LIVING had told him; and Lot accompanied him; and Abram was seventy-five years old at his departure from Haran.
RF GEN 12:5 Abram also took Sarai, his wife, and Lot the son of his brother, and the whole of his property which he possessed, and the slaves which he had acquired in Haran; and he proceeded to travel to the land of Canaan; and he came to the country of Canaan.
RF GEN 12:6 Then Abram travelled in that country to the village of Shekhem, as far as Alon-Moreh, and the Canaanites were still in the land.
RF GEN 12:7 The EVER-LIVING also appeared to Abram, and repeated, "I will give this country to your descendants." So he there built an altar to the EVER-LIVING Who had appeared to him.
RF GEN 12:8 Afterwards he removed from there to the hills at the East of Bethel, and pitched his tent with Bethel at the west and Haai to the east. There he also built an Altar to the EVER-LIVING, and called upon the name of the EVER-LIVING.
RF GEN 12:9 Then Abram marched on his journey, and proceeded to the south.
RF GEN 12:10 Abrahams visit to Egypt, or the Mizteraim.
But a famine occurred in the land; and Abram went down to Egypt to stay there for a time, as the famine was severe in the land.
RF GEN 12:11 And as they were approaching Egypt, he said to Sarai his wife, "See now, I know you are a fair woman;
RF GEN 12:12 and it may be that when the Egyptians see you they will say, 'This is his wife'; and they may murder me, and keep you alive.
RF GEN 12:13 Say, therefore, that you are my sister; so that they may show respect to me because of you, and my life may be saved by means of you."
RF GEN 12:14 And on Abram entering Egypt, the Egyptians noticed that the woman was very fair.
RF GEN 12:15 The courtiers of the Pharaoh also observed her and sung her praises to Pharaoh. The woman was accordingly taken to Pharaoh's palace.
RF GEN 12:16 On her account he favored Abram, and presented him with sheep, oxen, asses, slaves, and maids, as well as she-asses, and camels.
RF GEN 12:17 But the EVER-LIVING disturbed Pharaoh and his household greatly on account of Sarai, the wife of Abram.
RF GEN 12:18 So Pharaoh summoned Abram, and asked, "Why have you done this to me?
RF GEN 12:19 Why did you not inform me that she was your wife? Why did you say, 'She is my sister'? For I might have secured her as a wife for myself.
RF GEN 12:20 But now take your wife, and go." And Pharaoh ordered his men about him, and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had along with him.
