Genesis 13:7And there was discord between the herdsmen of Abram and the herdsmen of Lot. At that time the Canaanites and the Perizzites were also living in the land.Genesis 14:14And when Abram heard that his relative had been captured, he mobilized the 318 trained men born in his household, and they set out in pursuit as far as Dan.Genesis 16:1Now Abram’s wife Sarai had borne him no children, but she had an Egyptian maidservant named Hagar.Genesis 16:2So Sarai said to Abram, “Look now, the LORD has prevented me from bearing children. Please go to my maidservant; perhaps I can build a family by her.” And Abram listened to the voice of Sarai.Genesis 16:6“Here,” said Abram, “your servant is in your hands. Do whatever you want with her.” Then Sarai treated Hagar so harshly that she fled from her.Genesis 16:7Now the angel of the LORD found Hagar by a spring of water in the desert—the spring along the road to Shur.Genesis 16:8“Hagar, servant of Sarai,” he said, “where have you come from, and where are you going?” “I am running away from my mistress Sarai,” she replied.Genesis 16:9So the angel of the LORD told her, “Return to your mistress and submit to her authority.”Genesis 17:13Whether they are born in your household or purchased, they must be circumcised. My covenant in your flesh will be an everlasting covenant.Genesis 17:27And all the men of Abraham’s household—both servants born in his household and those purchased from foreigners—were circumcised with him.Genesis 21:25But when Abraham complained to Abimelech about a well that Abimelech’s servants had seized,Genesis 29:15Laban said to him, “Just because you are my relative, should you work for nothing? Tell me what your wages should be.”Genesis 29:24And Laban gave his servant girl Zilpah to his daughter Leah as her maidservant.Genesis 29:29Laban also gave his servant girl Bilhah to his daughter Rachel as her maidservant.Genesis 30:3Then she said, “Here is my maidservant Bilhah. Sleep with her, that she may bear children for me, so that through her I too can build a family.”Genesis 30:9When Leah saw that she had stopped having children, she gave her servant Zilpah to Jacob as a wife.Genesis 30:26Give me my wives and children for whom I have served you, that I may go on my way. You know how hard I have worked for you.”Genesis 30:27But Laban replied, “If I have found favor in your eyes, please stay. I have learned by divination that the LORD has blessed me because of you.”Genesis 30:28And he added, “Name your wages, and I will pay them.”Genesis 30:29Then Jacob answered, “You know how I have served you and how your livestock have thrived under my care.Genesis 30:30Indeed, you had very little before my arrival, but now your wealth has increased many times over. The LORD has blessed you wherever I set foot. But now, when may I also provide for my own household?”Genesis 30:31“What can I give you?” Laban asked. “You do not need to give me anything,” Jacob replied. “If you do this one thing for me, I will keep on shepherding and keeping your flocks.Genesis 30:32Let me go through all your flocks today and remove from them every speckled or spotted sheep, every dark-colored lamb, and every spotted or speckled goat. These will be my wages.Genesis 30:33So my honesty will testify for me when you come to check on my wages in the future. If I have any goats that are not speckled or spotted, or any lambs that are not dark-colored, they will be considered stolen.”Genesis 30:34“Agreed,” said Laban. “Let it be as you have said.”Genesis 31:6You know that I have served your father with all my strength.Genesis 31:7And although he has cheated me and changed my wages ten times, God has not allowed him to harm me.Genesis 31:41Thus for twenty years I have served in your household—fourteen years for your two daughters and six years for your flocks—and you have changed my wages ten times!Genesis 37:26Then Judah said to his brothers, “What profit will we gain if we kill our brother and cover up his blood?Genesis 37:27Come, let us sell him to the Ishmaelites and not lay a hand on him; for he is our brother, our own flesh.” And they agreed.Genesis 37:28So when the Midianite traders passed by, his brothers pulled Joseph out of the pit and sold him for twenty shekels of silver to the Ishmaelites, who took him to Egypt.Genesis 37:36Meanwhile, the Midianites sold Joseph in Egypt to Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh and captain of the guard.Genesis 39:2And the LORD was with Joseph, and he became a successful man, serving in the household of his Egyptian master.Genesis 39:3When his master saw that the LORD was with him and made him prosper in all he did,Genesis 39:4Joseph found favor in his sight and became his personal attendant. Potiphar put him in charge of his household and entrusted him with everything he owned.Genesis 39:5From the time that he put Joseph in charge of his household and all he owned, the LORD blessed the Egyptian’s household on account of him. The LORD’s blessing was on everything he owned, both in his house and in his field.Genesis 39:6So Potiphar left all that he owned in Joseph’s care; he did not concern himself with anything except the food he ate. Now Joseph was well-built and handsome,Genesis 39:7and after some time his master’s wife cast her eyes upon Joseph and said, “Sleep with me.”Genesis 39:8But he refused. “Look,” he said to his master’s wife, “with me here, my master does not concern himself with anything in his house, and he has entrusted everything he owns to my care.Genesis 39:9No one in this house is greater than I am. He has withheld nothing from me except you, because you are his wife. So how could I do such a great evil and sin against God?”Genesis 39:10Although Potiphar’s wife spoke to Joseph day after day, he refused to go to bed with her or even be near her.Genesis 39:11One day, however, Joseph went into the house to attend to his work, and not a single household servant was inside.Genesis 39:12She grabbed Joseph by his cloak and said, “Sleep with me!” But leaving his cloak in her hand, he escaped and ran outside.Genesis 39:13When she saw that he had left his cloak in her hand and had run out of the house,Genesis 39:14she called her household servants. “Look,” she said, “this Hebrew has been brought to us to make sport of us. He came to me so he could sleep with me, but I screamed as loud as I could.Genesis 39:15When he heard me scream for help, he left his cloak beside me and ran out of the house.”Genesis 39:16So Potiphar’s wife kept Joseph’s cloak beside her until his master came home.Genesis 39:17Then she told him the same story: “The Hebrew slave you brought us came to me to make sport of me,Genesis 39:18but when I screamed for help, he left his cloak beside me and ran out of the house.”Genesis 39:19When his master heard the story his wife told him, saying, “This is what your slave did to me,” he burned with anger.Genesis 39:20So Joseph’s master took him and had him thrown into the prison where the king’s prisoners were confined. While Joseph was there in the prison,Genesis 41:9Then the chief cupbearer said to Pharaoh, “Today I recall my failures.Genesis 41:10Pharaoh was once angry with his servants, and he put me and the chief baker in the custody of the captain of the guard.Genesis 41:11One night both the chief baker and I had dreams, and each dream had its own meaning.Genesis 41:12Now a young Hebrew was there with us, a servant of the captain of the guard. We told him our dreams and he interpreted them for us individually.Genesis 41:13And it happened to us just as he had interpreted: I was restored to my position, and the other man was hanged.”Genesis 41:14So Pharaoh sent for Joseph, who was quickly brought out of the dungeon. After he had shaved and changed his clothes, he went in before Pharaoh.Genesis 41:15Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I had a dream, and no one can interpret it. But I have heard it said of you that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.”Genesis 41:16“I myself cannot do it,” Joseph replied, “but God will give Pharaoh a sound answer.”Genesis 41:17Then Pharaoh said to Joseph: “In my dream I was standing on the bank of the Nile,
