Zillah also bore Tubal-cain; he was the
forger of
all instruments of
bronze and
iron. The
sister of
Tubal-cain was
Naamah.

(ESV)
Say you are my
sister, that
it may go well with me because of you, and that my
life may be
spared for your
sake.”
(OHB)
אִמְרִי־
נָא אֲחֹתִי אָתְּ לְמַעַן יִֽיטַב־לִי

(ESV)
Why did you
say, ‘She is my
sister,’ so that I
took her for my
wife?
Now then, here is your
wife;
take her, and
go.”
(OHB)
לָמָה אָמַרְתָּ אֲחֹתִי הִוא וָאֶקַּח אֹתָהּ לִי
לְאִשָּׁה וְעַתָּה הִנֵּה אִשְׁתְּךָ קַח וָלֵֽךְ׃
(ESV)
And
Abraham said of Sarah his
wife,
“She is my
sister.” And
Abimelech king of
Gerar sent and
took Sarah.
וַיֹּאמֶר אַבְרָהָם אֶל־
שָׂרָה אִשְׁתּוֹ אֲחֹתִי הִוא וַיִּשְׁלַח אֲבִימֶלֶךְ מֶלֶךְ גְּרָר וַיִּקַּח אֶת־
שָׂרָֽה׃
(ESV)
Did he not himself
say to me, ‘
She is my
sister’?
And she herself said, ‘He is my
brother.’ In the
integrity of my
heart and the
innocence of my
hands I have
done this.”
הֲלֹא הוּא אָֽמַר־לִי
אֲחֹתִי הִוא וְהִֽיא־
גַם־
הִוא אָֽמְרָה אָחִי הוּא בְּתָם־
לְבָבִי וּבְנִקְיֹן כַּפַּי עָשִׂיתִי זֹֽאת׃
(ESV)
Besides, she is
indeed my
sister, the
daughter of my
father though not the
daughter of my
mother, and she became my
wife.
וְגַם־
אָמְנָה אֲחֹתִי בַת־
אָבִי הִוא אַךְ לֹא בַת־
אִמִּי וַתְּהִי־לִי
לְאִשָּֽׁה׃
(ESV)
As soon as he
saw the
ring and the
bracelets on his
sister’s arms, and
heard the
words of
Rebekah his
sister, “
Thus the
man spoke to me,” he
went to the
man. And
behold, he was
standing by the
camels at the
spring.
וַיְהִי ׀

(ESV)
So they
sent away Rebekah their
sister and her
nurse, and
Abraham’s servant and his
men.
וַֽיְשַׁלְּחוּ אֶת־
רִבְקָה אֲחֹתָם וְאֶת־
מֵנִקְתָּהּ וְאֶת־

(ESV)
And they
blessed Rebekah and
said to her,
“
Our sister, may you
become thousands of
ten thousands,
and may your
offspring possess the
gate of those who
hate him!”
וַיְבָרֲכוּ אֶת־
רִבְקָה וַיֹּאמְרוּ לָהּ

(ESV)
and
Isaac was
forty years old when he
took Rebekah,
the
daughter of
Bethuel the
Aramean of
Paddan-aram,
the
sister of
Laban the
Aramean, to be his
wife.
וַיְהִי יִצְחָק בֶּן־

אֲרָם אֲחוֹת לָבָן הָאֲרַמִּי לוֹ
לְאִשָּֽׁה׃
(ESV)
When the
men of the
place asked him about his
wife,
he
said, “She is my
sister,” for he
feared to
say, “My
wife,” thinking, “lest the
men of the
place should
kill me because of
Rebekah,” because she was
attractive in
appearance.
וַֽיִּשְׁאֲלוּ אַנְשֵׁי הַמָּקוֹם לְאִשְׁתּוֹ וַיֹּאמֶר אֲחֹתִי הִוא כִּי יָרֵא לֵאמֹר אִשְׁתִּי פֶּן־

(ESV)
So
Abimelech called Isaac and
said, “
Behold, she
is your
wife.
How then could you
say, ‘She is my
sister’?”
Isaac said to him, “
Because I
thought, ‘
Lest I
die because of her.’”
וַיִּקְרָא אֲבִימֶלֶךְ לְיִצְחָק וַיֹּאמֶר אַךְ הִנֵּה אִשְׁתְּךָ הִוא וְאֵיךְ אָמַרְתָּ אֲחֹתִי הִוא וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו יִצְחָק כִּי אָמַרְתִּי פֶּן־

(ESV)
Esau went to
Ishmael and
took as his
wife,
besides the
wives he had,
Mahalath the
daughter of
Ishmael,
Abraham’s son, the
sister of
Nebaioth.
(OHB)

(ESV)
As soon as
Laban heard the
news about
Jacob, his
sister’s son,
he
ran to
meet him and
embraced him and
kissed him and
brought him to his
house. Jacob
told Laban all these
things,
וַיְהִי כִשְׁמֹעַ לָבָן אֶת־

(ESV)
When
Rachel saw that she
bore Jacob no children,
she envied her
sister. She
said to
Jacob, “
Give me
children,
or I shall
die!”
וַתֵּרֶא רָחֵל כִּי לֹא יָֽלְדָה לְיַעֲקֹב וַתְּקַנֵּא רָחֵל בַּאֲחֹתָהּ וַתֹּאמֶר אֶֽל־

(ESV)
Then
Rachel said, “With
mighty wrestlings I have
wrestled with my
sister and have
prevailed.” So she
called his
name Naphtali.
וַתֹּאמֶר רָחֵל נַפְתּוּלֵי אֱלֹהִים ׀

The
sons of
Jacob answered Shechem and his
father Hamor deceitfully, because
he had
defiled their
sister Dinah.
וַיַּעֲנוּ בְנֵֽי־

(ESV)
They
said to them, “We
cannot do this thing, to
give our
sister to
one who is
uncircumcised, for that would be a
disgrace to us.
וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֲלֵיהֶם לֹא נוּכַל לַעֲשׂוֹת הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה לָתֵת אֶת־

(ESV)
The
sons of
Jacob came upon the
slain and
plundered the
city,
because they had
defiled their
sister.
בְּנֵי יַעֲקֹב בָּאוּ עַל־
הַחֲלָלִים וַיָּבֹזּוּ הָעִיר אֲשֶׁר טִמְּאוּ אֲחוֹתָֽם׃
(ESV)
But they
said, “Should he
treat our
sister like a
prostitute?”
וַיֹּאמְרוּ הַכְזוֹנָה יַעֲשֶׂה אֶת־

(ESV)
and
Basemath,
Ishmael’s daughter, the
sister of
Nebaioth.

The
sons of
Lotan were
Hori and
Hemam; and
Lotan’s sister was
Timna.

The
sons of
Asher:
Imnah,
Ishvah,
Ishvi,
Beriah, with
Serah their

sons of
Beriah:
Heber and
Malchiel.

(ESV)
And his
sister stood at a
distance to
know what would be
done to him.
וַתֵּתַצַּב אֲחֹתוֹ מֵרָחֹק לְדֵעָה מַה־

(ESV)
Then his
sister said to
Pharaoh’s daughter, “Shall I
go and
call you a
nurse from the
Hebrew women to
nurse the
child for you?”
וַתֹּאמֶר אֲחֹתוֹ אֶל־

Aaron took as his

daughter of
Amminadab and the

bore him
Nadab,

Then
Miriam the
prophetess, the
sister of
Aaron,
took a
tambourine in her

all the

tambourines and
dancing.

And you shall
make fifty clasps of
gold, and
couple the

clasps,
so that the tabernacle may be a

There shall be

So shall you

You shall not

You shall not
uncover the
nakedness of your
father’s wife’s daughter,
brought up in your
father’s family, since she is your
sister.

You shall not

“If a

father or a
daughter of his
mother, and
sees her
nakedness, and she
sees his
nakedness, it is a
disgrace, and they shall be
cut off in the

children of their

uncovered his

bear his
iniquity.

(ESV)
You shall not
uncover the
nakedness of your
mother’s sister or of your
father’s sister, for that is to
make naked one’s
relative; they shall
bear their
iniquity.
וְעֶרְוַת אֲחוֹת אִמְּךָ וַאֲחוֹת אָבִיךָ לֹא תְגַלֵּה כִּי אֶת־

(ESV)
Not even for his
father or for his
mother, for
brother or
sister, if they
die, shall he make himself
unclean,

separation to
God is on his
head.

for they have
harassed you with their
wiles, with
which they
beguiled you in the
matter of
Peor, and in the
matter of
Cozbi, the
daughter of the
chief of
Midian, their
sister, who was
killed on the
day of the
plague on
account of
Peor.”

(ESV)
And her
father said, “I
really thought that you
utterly hated her, so I
gave her to your
companion. Is not her
younger sister more beautiful than she?
Please take her
instead.”
וַיֹּאמֶר אָבִיהָ אָמֹר אָמַרְתִּי כִּי־

(ESV)
Now
Absalom,
David’s son, had a
beautiful sister, whose
name was
Tamar. And
after a time Amnon,
David’s son,
loved her.
וַיְהִי אַֽחֲרֵי־

דָּוִד אָחוֹת יָפָה וּשְׁמָהּ תָּמָר וַיֶּאֱהָבֶהָ אַמְנוֹן בֶּן־
דָּוִֽד׃
(ESV)
And
Amnon was so
tormented that he made himself
ill because
of his
sister Tamar,
for she was a
virgin, and it
seemed impossible to
Amnon to
do anything to her.
וַיֵּצֶר לְאַמְנוֹן לְהִתְחַלּוֹת בַּֽעֲבוּר תָּמָר אֲחֹתוֹ כִּי בְתוּלָה הִיא וַיִּפָּלֵא בְּעֵינֵי אַמְנוֹן לַעֲשׂוֹת לָהּ
מְאֽוּמָה׃
(ESV)
And he
said to him, “O
son of the
king,
why are you so
haggard morning after
morning? Will you
not tell me?”
Amnon said to him, “I
love Tamar, my
brother Absalom’s sister.”
וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ
מַדּוּעַ אַתָּה כָּכָה דַּל בֶּן־
הַמֶּלֶךְ בַּבֹּקֶר בַּבֹּקֶר הֲלוֹא תַּגִּיד לִי
וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ
אַמְנוֹן אֶת־
תָּמָר אֲחוֹת אַבְשָׁלֹם אָחִי אֲנִי אֹהֵֽב׃
(ESV)
Jonadab said to him, “Lie
down on your
bed and pretend to be
ill. And when your
father comes to
see you,
say to him, ‘Let my
sister Tamar come and
give me
bread to eat, and
prepare the
food in my
sight, that I may
see it and
eat it from her
hand.’”
(OHB)
וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ
יְהוֹנָדָב שְׁכַב עַל־

הַבִּרְיָה לְמַעַן אֲשֶׁר אֶרְאֶה וְאָכַלְתִּי מִיָּדָֽהּ׃
(ESV)
So
Amnon lay down and pretended to be
ill. And when the
king came to
see him,
Amnon said to the
king, “
Please let my
sister Tamar come and
make a
couple of
cakes in my
sight, that I may
eat from her
hand.”
וַיִּשְׁכַּב אַמְנוֹן וַיִּתְחָל וַיָּבֹא הַמֶּלֶךְ לִרְאֹתוֹ וַיֹּאמֶר אַמְנוֹן אֶל־

נָא תָּמָר אֲחֹתִי וּתְלַבֵּב לְעֵינַי שְׁתֵּי לְבִבוֹת וְאֶבְרֶה מִיָּדָֽהּ׃
(ESV)
But when she
brought them near him to
eat, he took
hold of her and
said to her, “
Come,
lie with me, my
sister.”
וַתַּגֵּשׁ אֵלָיו לֶֽאֱכֹל וַיַּֽחֲזֶק־בָּהּ
וַיֹּאמֶר לָהּ
בּוֹאִי שִׁכְבִי עִמִּי אֲחוֹתִֽי׃
(ESV)
And her
brother Absalom said to her, “Has
Amnon your
brother been
with you? Now hold your
peace, my
sister. He is your
brother; do
not take this to
heart.” So
Tamar lived, a
desolate woman, in her
brother Absalom’s house.
וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלֶיהָ אַבְשָׁלוֹם אָחִיהָ הַאֲמִינוֹן אָחִיךְ הָיָה עִמָּךְ וְעַתָּה אֲחוֹתִי הַחֲרִישִׁי אָחִיךְ הוּא אַל־

(ESV)
But
Absalom spoke to Amnon neither good nor bad,
for Absalom hated Amnon,
because he had
violated his
sister Tamar.
וְלֹֽא־
דִבֶּר אַבְשָׁלוֹם עִם־

(ESV)
But
Jonadab the
son of
Shimeah,
David’s brother,
said, “Let
not my
lord suppose that they have
killed all the
young men, the
king’s sons,
for Amnon alone is
dead.
For by the
command of
Absalom this has been
determined from the
day he
violated his
sister Tamar.

יֹאמַר אֲדֹנִי אֵת כָּל־
הַנְּעָרִים בְּנֵֽי־
הַמֶּלֶךְ הֵמִיתוּ כִּֽי־
אַמְנוֹן לְבַדּוֹ מֵת כִּֽי־
עַל־
פִּי אַבְשָׁלוֹם הָיְתָה שׂוּמָה מִיּוֹם עַנֹּתוֹ אֵת תָּמָר אֲחֹתֽוֹ׃
(ESV)
Now
Absalom had
set Amasa over the
army instead of
Joab.
Amasa was the
son of a
man named Ithra the
Ishmaelite,
who had
married Abigal the
daughter of
Nahash,
sister of
Zeruiah,
Joab’s mother.
וְאֶת־
עֲמָשָׂא שָׂם אַבְשָׁלֹם תַּחַת יוֹאָב עַל־
הַצָּבָא וַעֲמָשָׂא בֶן־
אִישׁ וּשְׁמוֹ יִתְרָא הַיִּשְׂרְאֵלִי אֲשֶׁר־
בָּא אֶל־
אֲבִיגַל בַּת־
נָחָשׁ אֲחוֹת צְרוּיָה אֵם יוֹאָֽב׃
(ESV)
And
Hadad found great favor in the
sight of
Pharaoh, so that he
gave him in
marriage the
sister of his own
wife, the
sister of
Tahpenes the
queen.
וַיִּמְצָא הֲדַד חֵן בְּעֵינֵי פַרְעֹה מְאֹד וַיִּתֶּן־לוֹ
אִשָּׁה אֶת־
אֲחוֹת אִשְׁתּוֹ אֲחוֹת תַּחְפְּנֵיס הַגְּבִירָֽה׃
(ESV)
And the
sister of
Tahpenes bore him
Genubath his
son, whom
Tahpenes weaned in Pharaoh’s house. And
Genubath was in
Pharaoh’s house among the
sons of
Pharaoh.
וַתֵּלֶד לוֹ
אֲחוֹת תַּחְפְּנֵיס אֵת גְּנֻבַת בְּנוֹ וַתִּגְמְלֵהוּ תַחְפְּנֵס בְּתוֹךְ בֵּית פַּרְעֹה וַיְהִי גְנֻבַת בֵּית פַּרְעֹה בְּתוֹךְ בְּנֵי פַרְעֹֽה׃
(ESV)
But
Jehosheba, the
daughter of
King Joram,
sister of
Ahaziah,
took Joash the
son of
Ahaziah and stole him
away from among the
king’s sons who were being
put to death, and she
put him and his
nurse in a
bedroom. Thus they
hid him from Athaliah, so that he was
not put to death.
וַתִּקַּח יְהוֹשֶׁבַע בַּת־
הַמֶּֽלֶךְ־
יוֹרָם אֲחוֹת אֲחַזְיָהוּ אֶת־
יוֹאָשׁ בֶּן־
אֲחַזְיָה וַתִּגְנֹב אֹתוֹ מִתּוֹךְ בְּנֵֽי־
הַמֶּלֶךְ הממותתים אֹתוֹ וְאֶת־
מֵינִקְתּוֹ בַּחֲדַר הַמִּטּוֹת וַיַּסְתִּרוּ אֹתוֹ מִפְּנֵי עֲתַלְיָהוּ וְלֹא הוּמָֽת׃
(ESV)
The
sons of
Lotan:
Hori and
Hemam; and
Lotan’s sister was
Timna.
וּבְנֵי לוֹטָן חֹרִי וְהוֹמָם וַאֲחוֹת לוֹטָן תִּמְנָֽע׃ ס
(ESV)
And their
sisters were
Zeruiah and
Abigail.
The
sons of
Zeruiah:
Abishai,
Joab, and
Asahel,
three.
ואחיתיהם צְרוּיָה וַאֲבִיגָיִל וּבְנֵי צְרוּיָה אַבְשַׁי וְיוֹאָב וַעֲשָׂה־
אֵל שְׁלֹשָֽׁה׃
