Genesis 12:1-2
1599 Geneva Bible
12 1 Abram by God’s commandment goeth to Canaan. 3 Christ is promised. 7 Abram buildeth Altars for exercise and declaration of his faith among the infidels. 10 Because of the dearth he goeth into Egypt. 15 Pharaoh taketh his wife, and is punished.
1 For the Lord had said unto Abram, (A)[a]Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house unto [b]the land that I will show thee.
2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and will bless thee, and make thy name great, and thou shalt be a [c]blessing.
