The i. boke of Mo& The xij. Chap. Fo. v. undefined And Arphachſad begat Sala, and Sala begat Eber. Eber begat two &#383;onnes: the name of the one was Peleg, becau&#383;e that in his tyme the worlde was deuyded, and his brothers name was Jaketan, And Jaketan begat Almodad, Saleph, Hazarmaphet, Jarah, Hadoram, V&#383;al, Dikela, Obal Abimael, Seba, Ophir, Heuila ⁊ Joabab: All the&#383;e are ye childrē of Jaketan. And their dwellynge was from me&#383;a, tyll thou come vnto Sephara a mountayne of ye ea&#383;t. Theſe are ye children of Sem in their generacions, tunges, londes and people.

This is now ye generacion of ye children of Noe in their kynreds ⁊ people. Of the&#383;e were ye people vpon earth &#383;pred a brode after ye floude. undefined undefined Orouer all the worlde had one tonge ⁊ language. Now as they wente towarde the Ea&#383;t, they founde a playne in ye londe of Synear, ⁊ there they dwelt, ⁊ &#383;aide one to another: Come on, let vs make bryck ⁊ burne it. And they toke bryck for ſtone, ⁊ &#383;lyme for morter, And ſayde: Come, let vs buylde a cite ⁊ a tower, whoſe toppe maye reach vnto heaue&#772;, yt we maye make vs a name, afore we be ſcattred abrode in all londes. Then came ye LORDE downe, to ſe ye cite ⁊ tower, yt ye childre&#772; of me&#772; had buylded. And ye LORDE &#383;aide: Beholde, the people is one, ⁊ haue one maner of language amo&#772;ge the&#772; all, ⁊ this haue they begonne to do, ⁊ wil not leaue of from all yt they haue purpo&#383;ed to do. Come on, let vs go downe, ⁊ co&#772;founde their tonge eue&#772; there, yt one vnder&#383;tonde not what another &#383;aieth. Thus ye LORDE &#383;catred the&#772; fro&#772; the&#772;ce in all lo&#772;des, &#383;o yt they left of to buylde the cite. Therfore is it called Bebell, becau&#383;e the LORDE co&#772;founded there the language of all the worlde, and from the&#772;ce &#383;catred them abrode in to all londes. undefined Theſe are ye generacions of Sem. Sem was an hundreth yeare olde, and begat Arphachſed two yeare after the floude, and lyued therafter fyue hu&#772;dreth yeare, and begat &#383;onnes and doughters.

Arphach&#383;ad was fiue ⁊ thirtie yeare olde, and begat Salah, and lyued therafter foure hundreth and thre yeare, and begat ſonnes ⁊ doughters. undefined Salah was thirtie yeare elde, and begat Eber, ⁊ lyued therafter foure hu&#772;dreth ⁊ thre yeare, ⁊ begat ſonnes and doughters.

Eber was foure and thirtie yeare olde, ⁊ begat Peleg, and lyued therafter foure hundreth and thirtie yeare, and begat &#383;onnes ⁊ doughters.

Peleg was thirtie yeare olde, and begat Regu, and lyued therafter two hu&#772;dreth and nyene yeare, and begat &#383;onnes ⁊ doughters.

Regu was two and thirtie yeare olde, and begat Serug, and lyued therafter two hundreth and &#383;euen yeare, and begat &#383;onnes and doughters.

Serug was thirtie yeare olde, and begat Nahor, and lyued therafter two hundreth yeare, and begat &#383;onnes ⁊ doughters.

Nahor was nyene and twentye yeare olde, and begat Terah, and lyued herafter an hundreth and nyentene yeare, and begat &#383;onnes and doughters. undefined Terah was &#383;euentie yeare olde, and begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran.

Theſe are the generations of Terah: Terah begat Abram, Nabor and Haran. And Haran begat Lot, but Hara&#772; dyed before Terah his father in ye londe where he was borne, at Vr in Chaldea.

Then Abram and Nahor toke them wyues. Abrams wife was called Sarai, ⁊ Nahors wyfe Milca the doughter of Haran, which was father of Milca and Ji&#383;ca. But Sarai was baren, and had no childe.

Then toke Terah Abra&#772; his &#383;one, ⁊ Lot his &#383;onne Harans &#383;onne, ⁊ Sarai his doughter in lawe, his &#383;onne Abrams wife, ⁊ caried them wt him from Vr in Chaldea, to go in to the lande of Canaan. And they came to Haran, ⁊ dwelt there. And Terah was two hundreth ⁊ fyue yeare olde, and dyed in Haran. undefined undefined Nd ye LORDE &#383;ayde vnto Abram: Get the out of thy countre, and from thy kynred, and out of thy fathers hou&#383;e, in to a londe which I wil &#383;hew the. And I wil make of the a mightie people, and wyll ble&#383;&#383;e the, and make the a greate name, yee thou &#383;halt be a very ble&#383;&#383;ynge. I wil ble&#383;&#383;e them that ble&#383;&#383;e the, and cur&#383;e them that cur&#383;e the: and in the &#383;hal all the generacions of the earth be ble&#383;&#383;ed.

Then wente Abram out, as the LORDE commaunded him, and Lot wente with him. Fyue ⁊ &#383;euentie yeare olde was Abra&#772;, whan he wente out of Haran. So Abram toke Sarai his wife, and Lot his brothers &#383;onne, wt all their goodes which they had gotten, and &#383;oules which they begat in Hara&#772;, and departed to go in to ye londe of Canaan. And whe&#772; they were come in to the &#383;ame londe, he wente thorow, tyll he came vnto the place of Sichem, and vnto the Oke groue of More: for ye Cananites dwelt in ye lo&#772;de at ye &#383;ame time. undefined Then the LORDE appeared vnto Abra&#772;,
