创世记第11-15章
旧约-- 创世记(Genesis)--第11 章
11:1 那时，天下人的口音，言语，都是一样。
And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
11:2 他们往东边迁移的时候，在示拿地遇见一片平原，就住在那里。
And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.
11:3 他们彼此商量说，来吧，我们要作砖，把砖烧透了。他们就拿砖当石头，又拿石漆当灰泥。
And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.
11:4 他们说，来吧，我们要建造一座城和一座塔，塔顶通天，为要传扬我们的名，免得我们分散在全地上。
And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
11:5 耶和华降临，要看看世人所建造的城和塔。
And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded.
11:6 耶和华说，看哪，他们成为一样的人民，都是一样的言语，如今既作起这事来，以后他们所要作的事就没有不成就的了。
And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
11:7 我们下去，在那里变乱他们的口音，使他们的言语彼此不通。
Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
11:8 于是，耶和华使他们从那里分散在全地上。他们就停工，不造那城了。
So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
11:9 因为耶和华在那里变乱天下人的言语，使众人分散在全地上，所以那城名叫巴别（就是变乱的意思）。
Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
11:10 闪的后代记在下面。洪水以后二年，闪一百岁生了亚法撒。
These are the generations of Shem: Shem was an hundred years old, and begat Arphaxad two years after the flood:
11:11 闪生亚法撒之后，又活了五百年，并且生儿养女。
And Shem lived after he begat Arphaxad five hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.
11:12 亚法撒活到三十五岁，生了沙拉。
And Arphaxad lived five and thirty years, and begat Salah:
11:13 亚法撒生沙拉之后，又活了四百零三年，并且生儿养女。
And Arphaxad lived after he begat Salah four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.
11:14 沙拉活到三十岁，生了希伯。
And Salah lived thirty years, and begat Eber:
11:15 沙拉生希伯之后又活了四百零三年，并且生儿养女。
And Salah lived after he begat Eber four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.
11:16 希伯活到三十四岁，生了法勒。
And Eber lived four and thirty years, and begat Peleg:
11:17 希伯生法勒之后，又活了四百三十年，并且生儿养女。
And Eber lived after he begat Peleg four hundred and thirty years, and begat sons and daughters.
11:18 法勒活到三十岁，生了拉吴。
And Peleg lived thirty years, and begat Reu:
11:19 法勒生拉吴之后，又活了二百零九年，并且生儿养女。
And Peleg lived after he begat Reu two hundred and nine years, and begat sons and daughters.
11:20 拉吴活到三十二岁，生了西鹿。
And Reu lived two and thirty years, and begat Serug:
11:21 拉吴生西鹿之后，又活了二百零七年，并且生儿养女。
And Reu lived after he begat Serug two hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters.
11:22 西鹿活到三十岁，生了拿鹤。
And Serug lived thirty years, and begat Nahor:
11:23 西鹿生拿鹤之后，又活了二百年，并且生儿养女。
And Serug lived after he begat Nahor two hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.
11:24 拿鹤活到二十九岁，生了他拉。
And Nahor lived nine and twenty years, and begat Terah:
11:25 拿鹤生他拉之后，又活了一百一十九年，并且生儿养女。
And Nahor lived after he begat Terah an hundred and nineteen years, and begat sons and daughters.
11:26 他拉活到七十岁，生了亚伯兰，拿鹤，哈兰。
And Terah lived seventy years, and begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
11:27 他拉的后代，记在下面，他拉生亚伯兰，拿鹤，哈兰。哈兰生罗得。
Now these are the generations of Terah: Terah begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran begat Lot.
11:28 哈兰死在他的本地迦勒底的吾珥，在他父亲他拉之先。
And Haran died before his father Terah in the land of his nativity, in Ur of the Chaldees.
11:29 亚伯兰，拿鹤各娶了妻。亚伯兰的妻子名叫撒莱。拿鹤的妻子名叫密迦，是哈兰的女儿。哈兰是密迦和亦迦的父亲。
And Abram and Nahor took them wives: the name of Abram's wife was Sarai; and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah, and the father of Iscah.
11:30 撒莱不生育，没有孩子。
But Sarai was barren; she had no child.
11:31 他拉带着他儿子，亚伯兰和他孙子，哈兰的儿子罗得，并他儿妇亚伯兰的妻子撒莱，出了迦勒底的吾珥，要往迦南地去。他们走到哈兰，就住在那里。
And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran his son's son, and Sarai his daughter in law, his son Abram's wife; and they went forth with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan; and they came unto Haran, and dwelt there.
11:32 他拉共活了二百零五岁，就死在哈兰。
And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years: and Terah died in Haran.
旧约-- 创世记(Genesis)--第12 章
12:1 耶和华对亚伯兰说，你要离开本地，本族，父家，往我所要指示你的地去。
Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:
12:2 我必叫你成为大国，我必赐福给你，叫你的名为大，你也要叫别人得福。
And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
12:3 为你祝福的，我必赐福与他。那咒诅你的，我必咒诅他，地上的万族都要因你得福。
And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
12:4 亚伯兰就照着耶和华的吩咐去了。罗得也和他同去。亚伯兰出哈兰的时候，年七十五岁。
So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.
12:5 亚伯兰将他妻子撒莱和侄儿罗得，连他们在哈兰所积蓄的财物，所得的人口，都带往迦南地去。他们就到了迦南地。
And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran; and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.
12:6 亚伯兰经过那地，到了示剑地方，摩利橡树那里。那时迦南人住在那地。
And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Sichem, unto the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.
12:7 耶和华向亚伯兰显现，说，我要把这地赐给你的后裔。亚伯兰就在那里为向他显现的耶和华筑了一座坛。
And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.
12:8 从那里他又迁到伯特利东边的山，支搭帐棚。西边是伯特利，东边是艾。他在那里又为耶和华筑了一座坛，求告耶和华的名。
And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east: and there he builded an altar unto the LORD, and called upon the name of the LORD.
12:9 后来亚伯兰又渐渐迁往南地去。
And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the south.
12:10 那地遭遇饥荒。因饥荒甚大，亚伯兰就下埃及去，要在那里暂居。
And there was a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was grievous in the land.
12:11 将近埃及，就对他妻子撒莱说，我知道你是容貌俊美的妇人。
And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou art a fair woman to look upon:
12:12 埃及人看见你必说，这是他的妻子，他们就要杀我，却叫你存活。
Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see thee, that they shall say, This is his wife: and they will kill me, but they will save thee alive.
12:13 求你说，你是我的妹子，使我因你得平安，我的命也因你存活。
Say, I pray thee, thou art my sister: that it may be well with me for thy sake; and my soul shall live because of thee.
12:14 及至亚伯兰到了埃及，埃及人看见那妇人极其美貌。
And it came to pass, that, when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair.
12:15 法老的臣宰看见了她，就在法老面前夸奖她。那妇人就被带进法老的宫去。
The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her before Pharaoh: and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.
12:16 法老因这妇人就厚待亚伯兰，亚伯兰得了许多牛，羊，骆驼，公驴，母驴，仆婢。
And he entreated Abram well for her sake: and he had sheep, and oxen, and he asses, and menservants, and maidservants, and she asses, and camels.
12:17 耶和华因亚伯兰妻子撒莱的缘故，降大灾与法老和他的全家。
And the LORD plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai Abram's wife.
12:18 法老就召了亚伯兰来，说，你这向我作的是什么事呢，为什么没有告诉我她是你的妻子，
And Pharaoh called Abram, and said, What is this that thou hast done unto me? why didst thou not tell me that she was thy wife?
12:19 为什么说她是你的妹子，以致我把她取来要作我的妻子，现在你的妻子在这里，可以带她走吧。
Why saidst thou, She is my sister? so I might have taken her to me to wife: now therefore behold thy wife, take her, and go thy way.
12:20 于是法老吩咐人将亚伯兰和他妻子，并他所有的都送走了。
And Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him: and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had.
旧约-- 创世记(Genesis)--第13 章
13:1 亚伯兰带着他的妻子与罗得，并一切所有的，都从埃及上南地去。
And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.
13:2 亚伯兰的金，银，牲畜极多。
And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.
13:3 他从南地渐渐往伯特利去，到了伯特利和艾的中间，就是从前支搭帐棚的地方，
And he went on his journeys from the south even to Bethel, unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Hai;
13:4 也是他起先筑坛的地方，他又在那里求告耶和华的名。
Unto the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of the LORD.
13:5 与亚伯兰同行的罗得也有牛群，羊群，帐棚。
And Lot also, which went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.
13:6 那地容不下他们，因为他们的财物甚多，使他们不能同居。
And the land was not able to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, so that they could not dwell together.
13:7 当时，迦南人与比利洗人在那地居住。亚伯兰的牧人和罗得的牧人相争。
And there was a strife between the herdmen of Abram's cattle and the herdmen of Lot's cattle: and the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelled then in the land.
13:8 亚伯兰就对罗得说，你我不可相争，你的牧人和我的牧人也不可相争，因为我们是骨肉（原文作弟兄）。
And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we be brethren.
13:9 遍地不都在你眼前吗。请你离开我，你向左，我就向右。你向右，我就向左。
Is not the whole land before thee? separate thyself, I pray thee, from me: if thou wilt take the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if thou depart to the right hand, then I will go to the left.
13:10 罗得举目看见约旦河的全平原，直到琐珥，都是滋润的，那地在耶和华未灭所多玛，蛾摩拉以先如同耶和华的园子，也像埃及地。
And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered every where, before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, even as the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, as thou comest unto Zoar.
13:11 于是罗得选择约旦河的全平原，往东迁移。他们就彼此分离了。
Then Lot chose him all the plain of Jordan; and Lot journeyed east: and they separated themselves the one from the other.
13:12 亚伯兰住在迦南地，罗得住在平原的城邑，渐渐挪移帐棚，直到所多玛。
Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and pitched his tent toward Sodom.
13:13 所多玛人在耶和华面前罪大恶极。
But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly.
13:14 罗得离别亚伯兰以后，耶和华对亚伯兰说，从你所在的地方，你举目向东西南北观看。
And the LORD said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward:
13:15 凡你所看见的一切地，我都要赐给你和你的后裔，直到永远。
For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.
13:16 我也要使你的后裔如同地上的尘沙那样多，人若能数算地上的尘沙才能数算你的后裔。
And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered.
13:17 你起来，纵横走遍这地，因为我必把这地赐给你。
Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it unto thee.
13:18 亚伯兰就搬了帐棚，来到希伯仑幔利的橡树那里居住，在那里为耶和华筑了一座坛。
Then Abram removed his tent, and came and dwelt in the plain of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and built there an altar unto the LORD.
旧约-- 创世记(Genesis)--第14 章
14:1 当暗拉非作示拿王，亚略作以拉撒王，基大老玛作以拦王，提达作戈印王的时候，
And it came to pass in the days of Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of nations;
14:2 他们都攻打所多玛王比拉，蛾摩拉王比沙，押玛王示纳，洗扁王善以别，和比拉王。比拉就是琐珥。
That these made war with Bera king of Sodom, and with Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, and Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela, which is Zoar.
14:3 这五王都在西订谷会合。西订谷就是盐海。
All these were joined together in the vale of Siddim, which is the salt sea.
14:4 他们已经事奉基大老玛十二年，到十三年就背叛了。
Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
14:5 十四年，基大老玛和同盟的王都来在亚特律加宁，杀败了利乏音人，在哈麦杀败了苏西人，在沙微基列亭杀败了以米人，
And in the fourteenth year came Chedorlaomer, and the kings that were with him, and smote the Rephaims in Ashteroth Karnaim, and the Zuzims in Ham, and the Emims in Shaveh Kiriathaim,
14:6 在何利人的西珥山杀败了何利人，一直杀到靠近旷野的伊勒巴兰。
And the Horites in their mount Seir, unto Elparan, which is by the wilderness.
14:7 他们回到安密巴，就是加低斯，杀败了亚玛力全地的人，以及住在哈洗逊他玛的亚摩利人。
And they returned, and came to Enmishpat, which is Kadesh, and smote all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites, that dwelt in Hazezontamar.
14:8 于是所多玛王，蛾摩拉王，押玛王，洗扁王，和比拉王（比拉就是琐珥）都出来，在西订谷摆阵，与他们交战，
And there went out the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (the same is Zoar;) and they joined battle with them in the vale of Siddim;
14:9 就是与以拦王基大老玛，戈印王提达，示拿王暗拉非，以拉撒王亚略交战。乃是四王与五王交战。
With Chedorlaomer the king of Elam, and with Tidal king of nations, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings with five.
14:10 西订谷有许多石漆坑。所多玛王和蛾摩拉王逃跑，有掉在坑里的，其馀的人都往山上逃跑。
And the vale of Siddim was full of slimepits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there; and they that remained fled to the mountain.
14:11 四王就把所多玛和蛾摩拉所有的财物，并一切的粮食都掳掠去了。
And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their victuals, and went their way.
14:12 又把亚伯兰的侄儿罗得和罗得的财物掳掠去了。当时罗得正住在所多玛。
And they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.
14:13 有一个逃出来的人告诉希伯来人亚伯兰。亚伯兰正住在亚摩利人幔利的橡树那里。幔利和以实各并亚乃都是弟兄，曾与亚伯兰联盟。
And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew; for he dwelt in the plain of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner: and these were confederate with Abram.
14:14 亚伯兰听见他侄儿（原文是弟兄）被掳去，就率领他家里生养的精练壮丁三百一十八人，直追到但，
And when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he armed his trained servants, born in his own house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued them unto Dan.
14:15 便在夜间，自己同仆人分队杀败敌人，又追到大马士革左边的何把，
And he divided himself against them, he and his servants, by night, and smote them, and pursued them unto Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus.
14:16 将被掳掠的一切财物夺回来，连他侄儿罗得和他的财物，以及妇女，人民也都夺回来。
And he brought back all the goods, and also brought again his brother Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and the people.
14:17 亚伯兰杀败基大老玛和与他同盟的王回来的时候，所多玛王出来，在沙微谷迎接他。沙微谷就是王谷。
And the king of Sodom went out to meet him after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings that were with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which is the king's dale.
14:18 又有撒冷王麦基洗德带着饼和酒出来迎接。他是至高神的祭司。
And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God.
14:19 他为亚伯兰祝福，说，愿天地的主，至高的神赐福与亚伯兰ⅵ
And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth:
14:20 至高的神把敌人交在你手里，是应当称颂的。亚伯兰就把所得的拿出十分之一来，给麦基洗德。
And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.
14:21 所多玛王对亚伯兰说，你把人口给我，财物你自己拿去吧。
And the king of Sodom said unto Abram, Give me the persons, and take the goods to thyself.
14:22 亚伯兰对所多玛王说，我已经向天地的主至高的神耶和华起誓。
And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand unto the LORD, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth,
14:23 凡是你的东西，就是一根线，一根鞋带，我都不拿，免得你说，我使亚伯兰富足。
That I will not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich:
14:24 只有仆人所吃的，并与我同行的亚乃，以实各，幔利所应得的分，可以任凭他们拿去。
Save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men which went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre; let them take their portion.
旧约-- 创世记(Genesis)--第15 章
15:1 这事以后，耶和华在异象中有话对亚伯兰说，亚伯兰，你不要惧怕，我是你的盾牌，必大大地赏赐你。
After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
15:2 亚伯兰说，主耶和华阿，我既无子，你还赐我什么呢，并且要承受我家业的是大马士革人以利以谢。
And Abram said, LORD God, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus?
15:3 亚伯兰又说，你没有给我儿子。那生在我家中的人就是我的后嗣。
And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir.
15:4 耶和华又有话对他说，这人必不成为你的后嗣。你本身所生的才成为你的后嗣。
And, behold, the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.
15:5 于是领他走到外边，说，你向天观看，数算众星，能数得过来吗。又对他说，你的后裔将要如此。
And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.
15:6 亚伯兰信耶和华，耶和华就以此为他的义。
And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.
15:7 耶和华又对他说，我是耶和华，曾领你出了迦勒底的吾珥，为要将这地赐你为业。
And he said unto him, I am the LORD that brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.
15:8 亚伯兰说，主耶和华阿，我怎能知道必得这地为业呢。
And he said, LORD God, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?
15:9 他说，你为我取一只三年的母牛，一只三年的母山羊，一只三年的公绵羊，一只斑鸠，一只雏鸽。
And he said unto him, Take me an heifer of three years old, and a she goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtledove, and a young pigeon.
15:10 亚伯兰就取了这些来，每样劈开，分成两半，一半对着一半地摆列，只有鸟没有劈开。
And he took unto him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid each piece one against another: but the birds divided he not.
15:11 有鸷鸟下来，落在那死畜的肉上，亚伯兰就把它吓飞了。
And when the fowls came down upon the carcases, Abram drove them away.
15:12 日头正落的时候，亚伯兰沉沉地睡了。忽然有惊人的大黑暗落在他身上。
And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.
15:13 耶和华对亚伯兰说，你要的确知道，你的后裔必寄居别人的地，又服事那地的人。那地的人要苦待他们四百年。
And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;
15:14 并且他们所要服事的那国，我要惩罚，后来他们必带着许多财物从那里出来。
And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.
15:15 但你要享大寿数，平平安安地归到你列祖那里，被人埋葬。
And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.
15:16 到了第四代，他们必回到此地，因为亚摩利人的罪孽还没有满盈。
But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.
15:17 日落天黑，不料有冒烟的炉并烧着的火把从那些肉块中经过。
And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces.
15:18 当那日，耶和华与亚伯兰立约，说，我已赐给你的后裔，从埃及河直到伯大河之地，
In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:
15:19 就是基尼人，基尼洗人，甲摩尼人，
The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites,
15:20 赫人，比利洗人，利乏音人，
And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims,
15:21 亚摩利人，迦南人，革迦撒人，耶布斯人之地。
And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.
