52 Week Bible Reading Plan

Genesis 8

1

But God remembered Noah and all the beasts and all the cattle that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind blow over the earth, and the waters subsided;

2

the fountains of the deep and the windows of the heavens were closed, the rain from the heavens was restrained,

3

and the waters receded from the earth continually. At the end of a hundred and fifty days the waters had abated;

4

and in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ark came to rest upon the mountains of Ar'arat.

5

And the waters continued to abate until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.

6

At the end of forty days Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made,

7

and sent forth a raven; and it went to and fro until the waters were dried up from the earth.

8

Then he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters had subsided from the face of the ground;

9

but the dove found no place to set her foot, and she returned to him to the ark, for the waters were still on the face of the whole earth. So he put forth his hand and took her and brought her into the ark with him.

10

He waited another seven days, and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark;

11

and the dove came back to him in the evening, and lo, in her mouth a freshly plucked olive leaf; so Noah knew that the waters had subsided from the earth.

12

Then he waited another seven days, and sent forth the dove; and she did not return to him any more.

13

In the six hundred and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried from off the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and behold, the face of the ground was dry.

14

In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.

15

Then God said to Noah,

16

"Go forth from the ark, you and your wife, and your sons and your sons' wives with you.

17

Bring forth with you every living thing that is with you of all flesh--birds and animals and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth--that they may breed abundantly on the earth, and be fruitful and multiply upon the earth."

18

So Noah went forth, and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives with him.

19

And every beast, every creeping thing, and every bird, everything that moves upon the earth, went forth by families out of the ark.

20

Then Noah built an altar to the LORD, and took of every clean animal and of every clean bird, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.

21

And when the LORD smelled the pleasing odor, the LORD said in his heart, "I will never again curse the ground because of man, for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I ever again destroy every living creature as I have done.

22

While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease."

Genesis 9

1

And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth.

2

The fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every bird of the air, upon everything that creeps on the ground and all the fish of the sea; into your hand they are delivered.

3

Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you; and as I gave you the green plants, I give you everything.

4

Only you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, its blood.

5

For your lifeblood I will surely require a reckoning; of every beast I will require it and of man; of every man's brother I will require the life of man.

6

Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed; for God made man in his own image.

7

And you, be fruitful and multiply, bring forth abundantly on the earth and multiply in it."

8

Then God said to Noah and to his sons with him,

9

"Behold, I establish my covenant with you and your descendants after you,

10

and with every living creature that is with you, the birds, the cattle, and every beast of the earth with you, as many as came out of the ark.

11

I establish my covenant with you, that never again shall all flesh be cut off by the waters of a flood, and never again shall there be a flood to destroy the earth."

12

And God said, "This is the sign of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations:

13

I set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth.

14

When I bring clouds over the earth and the bow is seen in the clouds,

15

I will remember my covenant which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.

16

When the bow is in the clouds, I will look upon it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth."

17

God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth."

18

The sons of Noah who went forth from the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Ham was the father of Canaan.

19

These three were the sons of Noah; and from these the whole earth was peopled.

20

Noah was the first tiller of the soil. He planted a vineyard;

21

and he drank of the wine, and became drunk, and lay uncovered in his tent.

22

And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside.

23

Then Shem and Japheth took a garment, laid it upon both their shoulders, and walked backward and covered the nakedness of their father; their faces were turned away, and they did not see their father's nakedness.

24

When Noah awoke from his wine and knew what his youngest son had done to him,

25

he said, "Cursed be Canaan; a slave of slaves shall he be to his brothers."

26

He also said, "Blessed by the LORD my God be Shem; and let Canaan be his slave."

27

God enlarge Japheth, and let him dwell in the tents of Shem; and let Canaan be his slave."

28

After the flood Noah lived three hundred and fifty years.

29

All the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years; and he died.

Genesis 10

1

These are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth; sons were born to them after the flood.

2

The sons of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.

3

The sons of Gomer: Ash'kenaz, Riphath, and Togar'mah.

4

The sons of Javan: Eli'shah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Do'danim.

5

From these the coastland peoples spread. These are the sons of Japheth in their lands, each with his own language, by their families, in their nations.

6

The sons of Ham: Cush, Egypt, Put, and Canaan.

7

The sons of Cush: Seba, Hav'ilah, Sabtah, Ra'amah, and Sab'teca. The sons of Ra'amah: Sheba and Dedan.

8

Cush became the father of Nimrod; he was the first on earth to be a mighty man.

9

He was a mighty hunter before the LORD; therefore it is said, "Like Nimrod a mighty hunter before the LORD."

10

The beginning of his kingdom was Ba'bel, Erech, and Accad, all of them in the land of Shinar.

11

From that land he went into Assyria, and built Nin'eveh, Reho'both-Ir, Calah, and

12

Resen between Nin'eveh and Calah; that is the great city.

13

Egypt became the father of Ludim, An'amim, Leha'bim, Naph-tu'him,

14

Pathru'sim, Caslu'him (whence came the Philistines), and Caph'torim.

15

Canaan became the father of Sidon his first-born, and Heth,

16

and the Jeb'usites, the Amorites, the Gir'gashites,

17

the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites,

18

the Ar'vadites, the Zem'arites, and the Ha'mathites. Afterward the families of the Canaanites spread abroad.

19

And the territory of the Canaanites extended from Sidon, in the direction of Gerar, as far as Gaza, and in the direction of Sodom, Gomor'rah, Admah, and Zeboi'im, as far as Lasha.

20

These are the sons of Ham, by their families, their languages, their lands, and their nations.

21

To Shem also, the father of all the children of Eber, the elder brother of Japheth, children were born.

22

The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arpach'shad, Lud, and Aram.

23

The sons of Aram: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.

24

Arpach'shad became the father of Shelah; and Shelah became the father of Eber.

25

To Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided, and his brother's name was Joktan.

26

Joktan became the father of Almo'dad, Sheleph, Hazarma'veth, Jerah,

27

Hador'am, Uzal, Diklah,

28

Obal, Abim'a-el, Sheba,

29

Ophir, Hav'ilah, and Jobab; all these were the sons of Joktan.

30

The territory in which they lived extended from Mesha in the direction of Sephar to the hill country of the east.

31

These are the sons of Shem, by their families, their languages, their lands, and their nations.

32

These are the families of the sons of Noah, according to their genealogies, in their nations; and from these the nations spread abroad on the earth after the flood.

Genesis 11

1

Now the whole earth had one language and few words.

2

And as men migrated from the east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar and settled there.

3

And they said to one another, "Come, let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly." And they had brick for stone, and bitumen for mortar.

4

Then they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth."

5

And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the sons of men had built.

6

And the LORD said, "Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language; and this is only the beginning of what they will do; and nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them.

7

Come, let us go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech."

8

So the LORD scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city.

9

Therefore its name was called Ba'bel, because there the LORD confused the language of all the earth; and from there the LORD scattered them abroad over the face of all the earth.

10

These are the descendants of Shem. When Shem was a hundred years old, he became the father of Arpach'shad two years after the flood;

11

and Shem lived after the birth of Arpach'shad five hundred years, and had other sons and daughters.

12

When Arpach'shad had lived thirty-five years, he became the father of Shelah;

13

and Arpach'shad lived after the birth of Shelah four hundred and three years, and had other sons and daughters.

14

When Shelah had lived thirty years, he became the father of Eber;

15

and Shelah lived after the birth of Eber four hundred and three years, and had other sons and daughters.

16

When Eber had lived thirty-four years, he became the father of Peleg;

17

and Eber lived after the birth of Peleg four hundred and thirty years, and had other sons and daughters.

18

When Peleg had lived thirty years, he became the father of Re'u;

19

and Peleg lived after the birth of Re'u two hundred and nine years, and had other sons and daughters.

20

When Re'u had lived thirty-two years, he became the father of Serug;

21

and Re'u lived after the birth of Serug two hundred and seven years, and had other sons and daughters.

22

When Serug had lived thirty years, he became the father of Nahor;

23

and Serug lived after the birth of Nahor two hundred years, and had other sons and daughters.

24

When Nahor had lived twenty-nine years, he became the father of Terah;

25

and Nahor lived after the birth of Terah a hundred and nineteen years, and had other sons and daughters.

26

When Terah had lived seventy years, he became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran.

27

Now these are the descendants of Terah. Terah was the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran was the father of Lot.

28

Haran died before his father Terah in the land of his birth, in Ur of the Chalde'ans.

29

And Abram and Nahor took wives; the name of Abram's wife was Sar'ai, and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran the father of Milcah and Iscah.

30

Now Sar'ai was barren; she had no child.

31

Terah took Abram his son and Lot the son of Haran, his grandson, and Sar'ai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram's wife, and they went forth together from Ur of the Chalde'ans to go into the land of Canaan; but when they came to Haran, they settled there.

32

The days of Terah were two hundred and five years; and Terah died in Haran.
