The Generations of Terah
27 Now these are the generations of Terah. Terah became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and (A)Haran became the father of (B)Lot. 28 And Haran died [a]in the presence of Terah his father in the land of his birth, in (C)Ur of the Chaldeans. 29 Abram and (D)Nahor took wives for themselves. The name of Abram’s wife was (E)Sarai; and the name of Nahor’s wife was (F)Milcah, the daughter of Haran, the father of Milcah and the father of Iscah. 30 (G)And Sarai was barren; she had no child.
31 And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran, his grandson, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram’s wife; and they went out [b]together from (H)Ur of the Chaldeans in order to go to the land of Canaan; and they came as far as Haran and [c]settled there. 32 And the days of Terah were 205 years; and Terah died in Haran.

The Family of Terah
27 This is the account of Terah’s family. Terah was the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran was the father of Lot. 28 But Haran died in Ur of the Chaldeans, the land of his birth, while his father, Terah, was still living. 29 Meanwhile, Abram and Nahor both married. The name of Abram’s wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor’s wife was Milcah. (Milcah and her sister Iscah were daughters of Nahor’s brother Haran.) 30 But Sarai was unable to become pregnant and had no children.
31 One day Terah took his son Abram, his daughter-in-law Sarai (his son Abram’s wife), and his grandson Lot (his son Haran’s child) and moved away from Ur of the Chaldeans. He was headed for the land of Canaan, but they stopped at Haran and settled there. 32 Terah lived for 205 years[a] and died while still in Haran.
