Génesis 12:1-9

Listen to Génesis 12:1-9
1 Llamado de Abram
El Señor
le había dicho a Abram: «Deja tu patria y a tus parientes y a la familia de tu padre, y vete a la tierra que yo te mostraré.
2 HarĂ© de ti una gran naciĂ³n; te bendecirĂ© y te harĂ© famoso, y serĂ¡s una bendiciĂ³n para otros.
3 BendecirĂ© a quienes te bendigan y maldecirĂ© a quienes te traten con desprecio. Todas las familias de la tierra serĂ¡n bendecidas por medio de ti».
4 Entonces Abram partiĂ³ como el Señor
le habĂ­a ordenado, y Lot fue con Ă©l. Abram tenĂ­a setenta y cinco años cuando saliĂ³ de HarĂ¡n.
5 TomĂ³ a su esposa Sarai, a su sobrino Lot, y todas sus posesiones —sus animales y todas las personas que habĂ­a incorporado a los de su casa en HarĂ¡n— y se dirigiĂ³ a la tierra de CanaĂ¡n. Cuando llegaron a CanaĂ¡n,
6 Abram atravesĂ³ la tierra hasta llegar a Siquem. AllĂ­ estableciĂ³ el campamento, junto al roble de More. En aquel tiempo, los cananeos habitaban esa regiĂ³n.
7 Entonces el Señor
se le apareciĂ³ a Abram y le dijo: «DarĂ© esta tierra a tu descendencia».
Y Abram edificĂ³ allĂ­ un altar y lo dedicĂ³ al Señor
, quien se le habĂ­a aparecido.
8 DespuĂ©s Abram viajĂ³ hacia el sur y estableciĂ³ el campamento en la zona montañosa, situada entre Betel al occidente, y Hai al oriente. AllĂ­ edificĂ³ otro altar y lo dedicĂ³ al Señor
, y adorĂ³ al Señor
.
9 Entonces Abram continuĂ³ viajando por tramos en direcciĂ³n sur, hacia el Neguev.
