Kindred

Then the LORD said to Abram, “Leave your country, your kindred, and your father’s household, and go to the land I will show you.

…but will go to my country and my kindred to take a wife for my son Isaac.”

…but you shall go to my father’s house and to my kindred to take a wife for my son.’

And he told me, ‘The LORD, before whom I have walked, will send His angel with you and make your journey a success, so that you may take a wife for my son from my kindred and from my father’s house.

And when you go to my kindred, if they refuse to give her to you, then you will be released from my oath.’

Then the LORD said to Jacob, “Go back to the land of your fathers and to your kindred, and I will be with you.”

Then Jacob declared, “O God of my father Abraham, God of my father Isaac, the LORD who told me, ‘Go back to your country and to your kindred, and I will make you prosper,’

For how could I bear to see the disaster that would befall my people? How could I bear to see the destruction of my kindred?”

…and told him, ‘Leave your country and your kindred and go to the land I will show you.’
