5 Then Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother’s son, and all their substance that they possessed, and the [a]souls that they had gotten in Haran, and they departed to go to the land of Canaan, and to the land of Canaan they came.
6 ¶ So Abram [b]passed through the land unto the place of Shechem, and unto the [c]plain of Moreh (and the [d]Canaanite was then in the land)
