5 Avram took his wife Sarai, his brother’s son Lot, and all their possessions which they had accumulated, as well as the people they had acquired in Haran; then they set out for the land of Kena‘an and entered the land of Kena‘an.
6 Avram passed through the land to the place called Sh’khem, to the oak of Moreh. The Kena‘ani were then in the land. 7 Adonai appeared to Avram and said, “To your descendants I will give this land.” So he built an altar there to Adonai, who had appeared to him.

Schlachter 2000
5 Und Abram nahm seine Frau Sarai und Lot, den Sohn seines Bruders, samt all ihrer Habe, die sie erworben hatten, und den Seelen, die sie in Haran gewonnen hatten; und sie zogen aus, um ins Land Kanaan zu gehen; und sie kamen in das Land Kanaan.
6 Und Abram durchzog das Land bis zur Ortschaft Sichem, bis zur Terebinthe Mores[a]. Damals aber waren die Kanaaniter im Land.
7 Da erschien der Herr dem Abram und sprach: Deinem Samen will ich dieses Land geben! Und er baute dort dem Herrn, der ihm erschienen war, einen Altar.
