Strong's G11 Ἀβραάμ (abraam)

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

And God said to Abraham, Sarai thy wife—her name shall not be called Sarai, Sarah shall be her name.

And Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed; and spoke in his heart, saying, Shall there be a child to one who is a hundred years old, and shall Sarah who is ninety years old, bear?

And Abraham said to God, Let this Ishmael live before thee.

And God said to Abraham, Yea, behold, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name Isaac; and I will establish my covenant with him, for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to him and to his seed after him.

And he left off speaking with him, and God went up from Abraham.

And Abraham took Ishmael his son, and all his homeborn servants, and all those bought with money, and every male of the men in the house of Abraham, and he circumcised their foreskins in the time of that day, according as God spoke to him.

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

And at the period of that day, Abraham was circumcised, and Ishmael his son,

And Abraham hastened to the tent to Sarah, and said to her, Hasten, and knead three measures of fine flour, and make cakes.

And Abraham ran to the kine, and took a young calf, tender and good, and gave it to his servant, and he hastened to dress it.

And Abraham and Sarah were old, advanced in days, and the custom of women ceased with Sarah.

And the Lord said to Abraham, Why is it that Sarah has laughed in herself, saying, Shall I then indeed bear? but I am grown old.

And the men having risen up from thence looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah. And Abraham went with them, attending them on their journey.

And the Lord said, Shall I hide from Abraham my servant what things I intend to do?

But Abraham shall become a great and populous nation, and in him shall all the nations of the earth be blessed.

For I know that he will order his sons, and his house after him, and they will keep the ways of the Lord, to do justice and judgment, that the Lord may bring upon Abraham all things whatsoever he has spoken to him.

And the men having departed thence, came to Sodom; and Abraham was still standing before the Lord.

And Abraham drew nigh and said, Wouldest thou destroy the righteous with the wicked, and shall the righteous be as the wicked?

And Abraham answered and said, Now I have begun to speak to my Lord, and I am earth and ashes.

And the Lord departed, when he left off speaking to Abraham, and Abraham returned to his place.

And Abraham rose up early to go to the place, where he had stood before the Lord.

And it came to pass that when God destroyed all the cities of the region round about, God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when the Lord overthrew those cities in which Lot dwelt.

And Abraham removed thence to the southern country, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourned in Gerar.

And Abraham said concerning Sarah his wife, She is my sister, for he feared to say, She is my wife, lest at any time the men of the city should kill him for her sake. So Abimelech king of Gerar sent and took Sarah.

And Abimelech called Abraham and said to him, What is this that thou hast done to us? Have we sinned against thee, that thou hast brought upon me and upon my kingdom a great sin? Thou hast done to me a deed, which no one ought to do.

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

And Abraham said, Why I said, Surely there is not the worship of God in this place, and they will slay me because of my wife.

And Abimelech took a thousand pieces of silver, and sheep, and calves, and servants, and maidservants, and gave them to Abraham, and he returned him Sarah his wife.

And Abimelech said to Abraham, Behold, my land is before thee, dwell wheresoever it may please thee.

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

Because the Lord had fast closed from without every womb in the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham’s wife.

And she conceived and bore to Abraham a son in old age, at the set time according as the Lord spoke to him.

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

And Abraham circumcised Isaac on the eighth day, as God commanded him.

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

And she said, Who shall say to Abraham that Sarah suckles a child? for I have born a child in my old age.

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

And Sarah having seen the son of Hagar the Egyptian who was born to Abraham, sporting with Isaac her son,

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

But the word appeared very hard before Abraham concerning his son.

But God said to Abraham, Let it not be hard before thee concerning the child, and concerning the bondwoman; in all things whatsoever Sarah shall say to thee, hear her voice, for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.

And Abraham rose up in the morning and took loaves and a skin of water, and gave them to Hagar, and he put the child on her shoulder, and sent her away, and she having departed wandered in the wilderness near the well of the oath.

And it came to pass at that time that Abimelech spoke, and Ahuzzath his friend, and Phicol the chief captain of his host, to Abraham, saying, God is with thee in all things, whatsoever thou mayest do.

And Abraham said, I will swear.

And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of the wells of water, which the servants of Abimelech took away.

And Abraham took sheep and calves, and gave them to Abimelech, and both made a covenant.

And Abraham set seven ewe lambs by themselves.

And Abimelech said to Abraham, What are these seven ewe lambs which thou hast set alone?

And Abraham said, Thou shalt receive the seven ewe lambs of me, that they may be for me as a witness, that I dug this well.

And Abraham planted a field at the well of the oath, and called there on the name of the Lord, the everlasting God.

And Abraham sojourned in the land of the Philistines many days.

And it came to pass after these things that God tempted Abraham, and said to him, Abraham, Abraham; and he said, Lo! I am here.

And Abraham rose up in the morning and saddled his ass, and he took with him two servants, and Isaac his son, and having split wood for a whole burnt offering, he arose and departed, and came to the place of which God spoke to him,

on the third day; and Abraham having lifted up his eyes, saw the place afar off.

And Abraham said to his servants, Sit ye here with the ass, and I and the lad will proceed thus far, and having worshiped we will return to you.

And Abraham took the wood of the whole burnt offering, and laid it on Isaac his son, and he took into his hands both the fire and the knife, and the two went together.

And Isaac said to Abraham his father, Father. And he said, What is it, son? And he said, Behold the fire and the wood, where is the sheep for a whole burnt offering?

And Abraham said, God will provide himself a sheep for a whole burnt offering, my son. And both having gone together,

came to the place which God spoke of to him; and there Abraham built the altar, and laid the wood on it, and having bound the feet of Isaac his son together, he laid him on the altar upon the wood.

And Abraham stretched forth his hand to take the knife to slay his son.

And an angel of the Lord called him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham. And he said, Behold, I am here.

And Abraham lifted up his eyes and beheld, and lo! a ram caught by his horns in a plant of Sabec; and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a whole burnt offering in the place of Isaac his son.

And Abraham called the name of that place, The Lord hath seen; that they might say today, In the Mount the Lord was seen.

And an angel of the Lord called Abraham the second time out of heaven,

And Abraham returned to his servants, and they arose and went together to the well of the oath; and Abraham dwelt at the well of the oath.

And it came to pass after these things, that it was reported to Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah herself too has born sons to Nahor thy brother,

these are eight sons, which Milcah bore to Nahor the brother of Abraham.

And Sarah died in the city of Arba, which is in the valley, this is Hebron in the land of Canaan; and Abraham came to lament for Sarah and to mourn.

And Abraham stood up from before his dead; and Abraham spoke to the sons of Heth, saying,

And the sons of Heth answered to Abraham, saying, Not so, Sir,

And Abraham rose up and did obeisance to the people of the land, to the sons of Heth.

And Abraham spoke to them, saying, If ye have it in your mind that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hearken to me, and speak for me to Ephron the son of Zohar.

Now Ephron was sitting in the midst of the children of Heth, and Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham and spoke in the hearing of the sons of Heth, and of all who entered the city, saying,

And Abraham did obeisance before the people of the land.

But Ephron answered Abraham, saying,

And Abraham hearkened to Ephron, and Abraham rendered to Ephron the money, which he mentioned in the ears of the sons of Heth, four hundred didrachmas of silver approved with merchants.

to Abraham for a possession, before the sons of Heth, and all that entered into the city.

After this Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the Double Cave of the field, which is opposite Mamre, this is Hebron in the land of Canaan.

So the field and the cave which was in it were made sure to Abraham for possession of a burying place, by the sons of Heth.

And Abraham was old, advanced in days, and the Lord blessed Abraham in all things.

And Abraham said to his servant the elder of his house, who had rule over all his possessions, Put thy hand under my thigh,

And Abraham said to him, Take heed to thyself that thou carry not my son back thither.

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

And he said, O Lord God of my master Abraham, prosper my way before me today, and deal mercifully with my master Abraham.

And it shall be, the virgin to whomsoever I shall say, Incline thy waterpot, that I may drink, and she shall say, Drink thou, and I will give thy camels drink, until they shall have done drinking—even this one thou hast prepared for thy servant Isaac, and hereby shall I know that thou hast dealt mercifully with my master Abraham.

And it came to pass before he had done speaking in his mind, that behold, Rebekah the daughter of Bethuel, the son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, and the same the brother of Abraham, came forth, having a waterpot on her shoulders.

and said, Blessed be the Lord the God of my master Abraham, who has not suffered his righteousness to fail, nor his truth from my master, and the Lord has brought me prosperously to the house of the brother of my lord.

And he said, I am a servant of Abraham;

And having come this day to the well, I said, Lord God of my master Abraham, if thou prosperest my journey on which I am now going,

and she shall say to me, Both drink thou, and I will draw water for thy camels, this shall be the wife whom the Lord has prepared for his own servant Isaac; and hereby shall I know that thou hast wrought mercy with my master Abraham.

And being well pleased I worshiped the Lord, and I blessed the Lord the God of my master Abraham, who has prospered me in a true way, so that I should take the daughter of my master’s brother for his son.

And it came to pass when the servant of Abraham heard these words, he bowed himself to the Lord down to the earth.

So they sent forth Rebekah their sister, and her goods, and the servant of Abraham, and his attendants.

And Abraham again took a wife, whose name was Keturah.

But Abraham gave all his possessions to Isaac his son.

But to the sons of his concubines Abraham gave gifts, and he sent them away from his son Isaac, while he was yet living, to the east into the country of the east.

And these were the years of the days of the life of Abraham as many as he lived, a hundred and seventy-five years.

And Abraham failing died in a good old age, an old man and full of days, and was added to his people.

even the field and the cave which Abraham bought of the sons of Heth; there they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife.

And it came to pass after Abraham was dead, that God blessed Isaac his son, and Isaac dwelt by the well of the vision.

And these are the generations of Isaac the son of Abraham.

And there was a famine in the land, besides the former famine, which was in the time of Abraham; and Isaac went to Abimelech the king of the Philistines to Gerar.

And sojourn in this land; and I will be with thee, and bless thee, for I will give to thee and to thy seed all this land; and I will establish my oath which I swore to thy father Abraham.

Because Abraham thy father hearkened to my voice, and kept my injunctions, and my commandments, and my ordinances, and my statutes.

And Isaac dug again the wells of water, which the servants of his father Abraham had dug, and the Philistines had stopped them, after the death of his father Abraham; and he gave them names, according to the names by which his father named them.

And the Lord appeared to him in that night, and said, I am the God of Abraham thy father; fear not, for I am with thee, and I will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for the sake of Abraham thy father.

And may he give thee the blessing of my father Abraham, even to thee and to thy seed after thee, to inherit the land of thy sojourning, which God gave to Abraham.

Esau went to Ishmael, and took Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael, the son of Abraham, the sister of Nebaioth, a wife in addition to his other wives.

And the Lord stood upon it, and said, I am the God of thy father Abraham, and the God of Isaac; fear not, the land on which thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed.

Unless I had the God of my father Abraham, and the fear of Isaac, now thou wouldest have sent me away empty; God saw my humiliation, and the labor of my hands, and rebuked thee yesterday.

The God of Abraham and the God of Nahor judge between us; and Jacob swore by the Fear of his father Isaac.

And Jacob said, God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, O Lord, thou art he that said to me, Depart quickly to the land of thy birth, and I will do thee good.

And the land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I have given it to thee; and it shall come to pass that I will give this land also to thy seed after thee.

And Jacob came to Isaac his father to Mamre, to a city of the plain; this is Hebron in the land of Canaan, where Abraham and Isaac sojourned.

And he blessed them and said, The God in whose sight my fathers were well pleasing, even Abraham and Isaac, the God who continues to feed me from my youth until this day;

the angel who delivers me from all evils, bless these boys, and my name shall be called upon them, and the name of my fathers, Abraham and Isaac; and let them be increased to a great multitude on the earth.

in the double cave which is opposite Mamre, in the land of Canaan, the cave which Abraham bought of Ephron the Hittite, for a possession of a sepulcher.
