Gênesis 12
Nova Versão Transformadora
O chamado de Abrão
12 O Senhor tinha dito a Abrão: “Deixe sua terra natal, seus parentes e a família de seu pai e vá à terra que eu lhe mostrarei. 2 Farei de você uma grande nação, o abençoarei e o tornarei famoso, e você será uma bênção para outros. 3 Abençoarei os que o abençoarem e amaldiçoarei os que o amaldiçoarem. Por meio de você, todas as famílias da terra serão abençoadas”.
4 Então Abrão partiu, como o Senhor havia instruído, e Ló foi com ele. Abrão tinha 75 anos quando saiu de Harã. 5 Tomou sua mulher, Sarai, seu sobrinho Ló e todos os seus bens, os rebanhos e os servos que havia agregado à sua casa em Harã, e seguiu para a terra de Canaã. Quando chegaram a Canaã, 6 Abrão atravessou a terra até Siquém, onde acampou junto ao carvalho de Moré. Naquele tempo, os cananeus habitavam a região.
7 Então o Senhor apareceu a Abrão e disse: “Darei esta terra a seus descendentes”. Abrão construiu um altar ali e o dedicou ao Senhor, que lhe havia aparecido. 8 Dali, Abrão viajou para o sul e acampou na região montanhosa, entre Betel, a oeste, e Ai, a leste. Construiu ali mais um altar dedicado ao Senhor e invocou o nome do Senhor. 9 Abrão prosseguiu em sua jornada para o sul, acampando ao longo do caminho em direção ao Neguebe.
Abrão e Sarai no Egito
10 Naquele tempo, uma fome terrível atingiu a terra de Canaã, e Abrão foi obrigado a descer ao Egito, onde viveu como estrangeiro. 11 Aproximando-se da fronteira do Egito, Abrão disse a Sarai, sua mulher: “Você é muito bonita. 12 Quando os egípcios a virem, dirão: ‘É mulher dele. Vamos matá-lo para ficarmos com ela’. 13 Diga, portanto, que é minha irmã. Eles pouparão minha vida e, por sua causa, me tratarão bem”.
14 De fato, chegando Abrão ao Egito, todos notaram a grande beleza de sua mulher. 15 Quando os oficiais do palácio a viram, falaram maravilhas dela ao faraó e a levaram para o palácio. 16 Por causa de Sarai, o faraó deu muitos presentes a Abrão: ovelhas, bois, jumentos e jumentas, servos e servas, e camelos.
17 Mas, por causa de Sarai, mulher de Abrão, o Senhor enviou pragas terríveis sobre o faraó e sobre os membros de sua casa. 18 Por isso, o faraó mandou chamar Abrão e disse: “O que você fez comigo? Por que não me disse que ela era sua mulher? 19 Por que disse que era sua irmã e permitiu que eu a tomasse como esposa? Aqui está sua mulher. Tome-a e vá embora daqui!”. 20 O faraó ordenou que alguns de seus homens escoltassem Abrão, com sua mulher e todos os seus bens, para fora de sua terra.

Llamamiento de Abram
12 El Señor dijo a Abram: «Deja tu tierra, tus parientes, la casa de tu padre y ve a la tierra que te mostraré.
2 »Haré de ti una nación grande
y te bendeciré;
haré famoso tu nombre
y serás una bendición.
3 Bendeciré a los que te bendigan
y maldeciré a los que te maldigan;
¡por medio de ti serán bendecidas
todas las familias de la tierra!».
4 Abram partió, tal como el Señor se lo había ordenado, y Lot se fue con él. Abram tenía setenta y cinco años cuando salió de Jarán. 5 Al encaminarse hacia la tierra de Canaán, Abram se llevó a su esposa Saray, a su sobrino Lot, a toda la gente que habían adquirido en Jarán y todos los bienes que habían acumulado. Salieron para la tierra de Canaán y allá llegaron.
6 Abram atravesó toda esa región hasta llegar a Siquén, donde se encuentra el gran árbol de Moré. En aquella época, los cananeos vivían en esa región. 7 Allí el Señor se apareció a Abram y le dijo: «Yo daré esta tierra a tu descendencia». Entonces Abram edificó un altar al Señor, porque se le había aparecido.
8 De allí se dirigió a la región montañosa que está al este de Betel, donde instaló su tienda de campaña, teniendo a Betel al oeste y Hai al este. También en ese lugar erigió un altar al Señor e invocó su nombre.
9 Después, Abram siguió su viaje por etapas hasta llegar a la región del Néguev.
Abram en Egipto
10 En ese entonces hubo tanta hambre en aquella región que Abram se fue a vivir a Egipto. 11 Cuando estaba por entrar a Egipto, dijo a su esposa Saray: «Yo sé que eres una mujer muy hermosa. 12 Estoy seguro de que en cuanto te vean los egipcios dirán: “Es su esposa”; entonces a mí me matarán, pero a ti te dejarán con vida. 13 Por favor, di que eres mi hermana para que gracias a ti me vaya bien y me dejen con vida».
14 Cuando Abram llegó a Egipto, los egipcios vieron que Saray era muy hermosa. 15 También los oficiales del faraón la vieron y fueron a contarle al faraón lo hermosa que era. Entonces la llevaron al palacio real. 16 Gracias a ella trataron muy bien a Abram. Le dieron ovejas, vacas, esclavos y esclavas, asnos y asnas, y también camellos.
17 Pero por causa de Saray, la esposa de Abram, el Señor castigó al faraón y a su familia con grandes plagas. 18 Entonces el faraón llamó a Abram y dijo: «¿Qué me has hecho? ¿Por qué no me dijiste que era tu esposa? 19 ¿Por qué dijiste que era tu hermana? ¡Así que yo la tomé por esposa! ¡Aquí está tu esposa! ¡Tómala y vete!». 20 Y el faraón ordenó a sus hombres que expulsaran a Abram y a su esposa, junto con todos sus bienes.
Genesis 12
King James Version
12 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:
2 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:
3 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 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.
5 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.
6 And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Sichem, unto the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.
7 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.
8 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.
9 And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the south.
10 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.
11 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 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.
13 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.
14 And it came to pass, that, when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair.
15 The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her before Pharaoh: and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.
16 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.
17 And the Lord plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai Abram's wife.
18 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?
19 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.
20 And Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him: and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had.
Genesis 12
New International Version
The Call of Abram
12 The Lord had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household(A) to the land(B) I will show you.(C)
2 “I will make you into a great nation,(D)
and I will bless you;(E)
I will make your name great,
and you will be a blessing.[a](F)
3 I will bless those who bless you,
and whoever curses you I will curse;(G)
and all peoples on earth
will be blessed through you.(H)”[b]
4 So Abram went, as the Lord had told him; and Lot(I) went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old(J) when he set out from Harran.(K) 5 He took his wife Sarai,(L) his nephew Lot, all the possessions they had accumulated(M) and the people(N) they had acquired in Harran, and they set out for the land of Canaan,(O) and they arrived there.
6 Abram traveled through the land(P) as far as the site of the great tree of Moreh(Q) at Shechem.(R) At that time the Canaanites(S) were in the land. 7 The Lord appeared to Abram(T) and said, “To your offspring[c] I will give this land.(U)”(V) So he built an altar there to the Lord,(W) who had appeared to him.
8 From there he went on toward the hills east of Bethel(X) and pitched his tent,(Y) with Bethel on the west and Ai(Z) on the east. There he built an altar to the Lord and called on the name of the Lord.(AA)
9 Then Abram set out and continued toward the Negev.(AB)
Abram in Egypt(AC)
10 Now there was a famine in the land,(AD) and Abram went down to Egypt to live there for a while because the famine was severe.(AE) 11 As he was about to enter Egypt, he said to his wife Sarai,(AF) “I know what a beautiful woman(AG) you are. 12 When the Egyptians see you, they will say, ‘This is his wife.’ Then they will kill me but will let you live. 13 Say you are my sister,(AH) so that I will be treated well for your sake and my life will be spared because of you.”
14 When Abram came to Egypt, the Egyptians saw that Sarai was a very beautiful woman.(AI) 15 And when Pharaoh’s officials saw her, they praised her to Pharaoh, and she was taken into his palace. 16 He treated Abram well for her sake, and Abram acquired sheep and cattle, male and female donkeys, male and female servants, and camels.(AJ)
17 But the Lord inflicted(AK) serious diseases on Pharaoh and his household(AL) because of Abram’s wife Sarai. 18 So Pharaoh summoned Abram. “What have you done to me?”(AM) he said. “Why didn’t you tell me she was your wife?(AN) 19 Why did you say, ‘She is my sister,’(AO) so that I took her to be my wife? Now then, here is your wife. Take her and go!” 20 Then Pharaoh gave orders about Abram to his men, and they sent him on his way, with his wife and everything he had.
