1 Now ^athe Lord said ^{▼▼Or had said} to Abram, “Go from your country ^{▼▼Or land} and your kindred and your father’s house to the land that I will show you. 2 ^dAnd I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. 3 ^eI will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and ^fin you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” ^{▼▼Or by you all the families of the earth shall bless themselves}

4 So Abram went, as the Lord had told him, and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed from ^hHaran. 5 And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother’s son, and all their possessions that they had gathered, and the people that they had acquired in Haran, and they set out to go to the land of Canaan. When they came to the land of Canaan, 6 Abram ⁱpassed through the land to the place at Shechem, to ^jthe oak ^{▼▼Or terebinth} of ^lMoreh. At that time ^mthe Canaanites were in the land. 7 Then the Lord appeared to Abram and said, ⁿ“To your offspring I will give this land.” So he built there an altar to the Lord, who had appeared to him.

And behold, your sheaves gathered around it and ^rbowed down to my sheaf.” 8 His brothers said to him, “Are you indeed to reign over us? Or are you indeed to rule over us?” So they hated him even more for his dreams and for his words.

9 Then he dreamed another dream and told it to his brothers and said, “Behold, I have dreamed another dream. Behold, the sun, the moon, and eleven stars were bowing down to me.” 10 But when he told it to his father and to his brothers, his father rebuked him and said to him, “What is this dream that you have dreamed? Shall I and ^syour mother and your brothers indeed come ^tto bow ourselves to the ground before you?”

And Pharaoh awoke. 5 And he fell asleep and dreamed a second time. And behold, seven ears of grain, plump and good, were growing on one stalk. 6 And behold, after them sprouted seven ears, thin and ^wblighted by the east wind. 7 And the thin ears swallowed up the seven plump, full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and behold, it was a dream.
