1and Hashem has said to Avram: go you(SG) away from your land, and from your descent, and from your father's house, to the land which I will you(SG) show. 2and I will you make for a great people, and I will you bless, and magnify your name, and you you(SG) must be a blessing. 3and I will bless the which bless you, and the which curse you will I curse; and with you(SG) will self bless all families of the earth.
4and Avram is having gone thus as Hashem has to him spoken; and Lot is gone with with him. and Avram is having been a man of five and seventy year by his go out of Charan. 5and Avram has taken his wife Sarai, and his brother's son Lot, and their all wealth which they have amassed, and the persons which they have self amassed in Charan, and they are having come out to go to land Canaan; and they are having come to land Canaan. 6and Avram is passed through land to the place of Shechem, to the oak Moreh. and the Kena'ani is then having been in land.
7and Hashem has self appeared to Avram, and has said: to your seed will I give this land. and he has there built an altar to Hashem which has self appeared to him.
