Then the LORD appeared unto Abram and said: unto thy seed will I give thy slande. And he builded an altar there unto the LORD which appeared to him. Then departed he thence unto a mountain that lieth on the east side of BETHEL and pitched his tent: BETHEL being on the west side / and Ay on the cast • And he builded there an altar unto the LORD / and called on the name of yt LORde. And than Abram departed and toke his journey southward

Then the LORde apeared vnto Abram ād sayd: vnto thy seed wyll I geue thy slāde. And he buylded an aultere there vnto the LORDE which apeared to hym. Then departed he thence vnto a mountayne that lyeth on the east syde of BETHEL and pytched hys tente: BETHEL beynge on the west syde / and Ay on the cast • And he buylded there an aulter vnto the LORde / and called on the name of yt LORde. And than Abram departed and toke his iourney southwarde

After this there came a dearth in the land. And Abram went down in to Egypt to sojourn there / for the dearth was sore in the land. And when he was come nigh for to enter in to Egypt / he said unto Sarai his wife. Behold / I know that thou art a fair woman to look upon. It will come to pass therefore when the Egyptians see the / that they will say: she is his wife. And so shall they slay me and save thee. ⟨image 24⟩Say I pray the therefore that thou art my sister / that I may fare the better by reason of thee and that my soul may live for thy sake.

After thys there came a derth in the lande. And Abram went doune in to Egipte to soiourne there / for the derth was sore in the lande. And when he was come nye for to entre in to Egipte / he sayd vnto Sarai his wife. Beholde / I knowe that thou art a fayre woman toloke apō. It wyll come to passe therfore whē the Egiptians see the / that they wyll say: she is his wyfe. And so shall they sley me and save the. ⟨image 24⟩
