Genesis 12:5-7

Expanded Bible

⁵ He took his wife Sarai, ·his nephew [^Lthe son of his brother] Lot, and everything they owned, as well as all the ·servants [^Lpeople] they had gotten in Haran. They set out from Haran, planning to go to the land of Canaan, and in time they arrived there.

⁶ Abram ·traveled [passed] through that land as far as the great oak [or terebinth] tree of Moreh at Shechem [^Ca town in northern Palestine]. The Canaanites were living in the land at that time. ⁷ The Lord appeared to Abram and said, “I will give this land to your ·descendants [^Lseed].” So Abram built an altar [^Ca place to offer sacrifices] there to the Lord, who had appeared to him.
