Genesis 12:6 in Context — Genesis 12

4 Assim se foi Abrão, como o SENHOR lhe dissera; e Ló foi com ele. Abrão tinha setenta e cinco anos de idade quando saiu de Harã.

5 E Abrão tomou a Sarai, sua mulher, e a Ló, filho de seu irmão, e todos os seus pertences que haviam ganhado, e as pessoas que eles haviam adquirido em Harã, e saíram para ir à terra de Canaã; e à terra de Canaã chegaram.

6 E passou Abrão por aquela terra até o lugar de Siquém, até o carvalho de Moré; e os cananeus estavam então na terra.

7 E o SENHOR apareceu a Abrão, e lhe disse: À tua descendência darei esta terra. E ele edificou ali um altar ao SENHOR, que lhe havia aparecido.

8 E passou-se dali a um monte ao oriente de Betel, e estendeu sua tenda, tendo a Betel ao ocidente e Ai ao oriente: e edificou ali altar ao SENHOR e invocou o nome do SENHOR.
