Gênesis 12
1 Ora o Senhor disse a Abrão: Sae-te da tua terra, e da tua parentela, e da casa de teu pae, para a terra que eu te mostrarei.
And Jehovah had said to Abram, Go out of thy land, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, to the land that I will shew thee.
2 E far-te-hei uma grande nação, e abençoar-te-hei, e engrandecerei o teu nome; e tu serás uma benção.
And I will make of thee a great nation, and bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing.
3 E abençoarei os que te abençoarem, e amaldiçoarei os que te amaldiçoarem; e em ti serão bemditas todas as familias da terra.
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.
4 Assim partiu Abrão, como o Senhor lhe tinha dito, e foi Lot com elle: e era Abrão de edade de setenta e cinco annos, quando saiu de Haran.
And Abram departed as Jehovah had said to him. And Lot went with him. And Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed out of Haran.
5 E tomou Abrão a Sarai, sua mulher, e a Lot, filho de seu irmão, e toda a sua fazenda, que haviam adquirido, e as almas que lhe accresceram em Haran: e sairam para irem á terra de Canaan; e vieram á terra de Canaan.
And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their possessions that they had acquired, and the souls that they had obtained in Haran, and they went out to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.
6 E passou Abrão por aquella terra até ao logar de Sichem, até ao carvalho de Moreh; e estavam então os Cananeos na terra.
And Abram passed through the land to the place of Shechem, to the oak of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.
7 E appareceu o Senhor a Abrão, e disse: Á tua semente darei esta terra. E edificou ali um altar ao Senhor, que lhe apparecêra.
And Jehovah appeared to Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land. And there he built an altar to Jehovah who had appeared to him.
8 E moveu-se d'ali para a montanha á banda do Oriente de Bethel, e armou a sua tenda, tendo Bethel ao Occidente, e Ai ao Oriente; e edificou ali um altar ao Senhor, e invocou o nome do Senhor.
And he removed thence towards the mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, [having] Bethel toward the west, and Ai toward the east; and there he built an altar to Jehovah, and called on the name of Jehovah.
9 Depois caminhou Abrão d'ali, seguindo ainda para a banda do Sul.
And Abram moved onward, going on still toward the south.
10 E havia fome n'aquella terra: e desceu Abrão ao Egypto, para peregrinar ali, porquanto a fome era grande na terra.
And there was a famine in the land. And Abram went down to Egypt to sojourn there, for the famine was grievous in the land.
11 E aconteceu que, chegando elle para entrar no Egypto, disse a Sarai, sua mulher: Ora bem sei que és mulher formosa á vista;
And it came to pass when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said to Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou art a woman fair to look upon.
12 E será que, quando os Egypcios te virem, dirão: Esta é sua mulher. E matar-me-hão a mim, e a ti te guardarão em vida
And it will come to pass when the Egyptians see thee, that they will say, She is his wife; and they will slay me, and save thee alive.
13 Dize, peço-te, que és minha irmã, para que me vá bem por tua causa, e que viva a minha alma por amor de ti.
Say, I pray thee, thou art my sister, that it may be well with me on thy account, and my soul may live because of thee.
14 E aconteceu que, entrando Abrão no Egypto, viram os Egypcios a mulher, que era mui formosa.
And it came to pass when Abram came into Egypt, that the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair.
15 E viram-n'a os principes do Pharaó, e gabaram-n'a diante do Pharaó: e foi a mulher tomada para casa do Pharaó.
And the princes of Pharaoh saw her, and praised her to Pharaoh; and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.
16 E fez bem a Abrão por amor d'ella; e elle teve ovelhas, e vaccas, e jumentos, e servos e servas, e jumentas, e camelos.
And he treated Abram well on her account; and he had sheep, and oxen, and he-asses, and bondmen, and bondwomen, and she-asses, and camels.
17 Feriu, porém, o Senhor o Pharaó com grandes pragas, e a sua casa, por causa de Sarai, mulher de Abrão.
And Jehovah plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai Abram's wife.
18 Então chamou o Pharaó a Abrão, e disse: Que é isto que me fizeste? porque não me disseste que ella era tua mulher?
And Pharaoh called Abram, and said, What is this thou hast done to me? Why didst thou not tell me that she was thy wife?
19 Porque disseste: É minha irmã? de maneira que a houvera tomado por minha mulher: agora, pois, eis aqui tua mulher; toma-a e vae-te.
Why didst thou say, She is my sister, so that I took her as my wife. And now, behold, there is thy wife: take [her], and go away.
20 E o Pharaó, deu ordens aos seus varões a seu respeito, e acompanharam-n'o a elle, e a sua mulher, e a tudo o que tinha.
And Pharaoh commanded [his] men concerning him, and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had.
