4 So Abram went, as the Lord had told him, and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he left Haran.l 5 He took his wife, Sarai, his nephew Lot, all the possessions they had accumulated, and the people they had acquired in Haran, and they set out for the land of Canaan. When they came to the land of Canaan, 6 Abram passed through the land to the site of Shechem,m at the oak of Moreh. (At that time the Canaanites were in the land.) 7 The Lord appeared to Abram and said, “To your offspringn,* I will give this land.” So he built an altar there to the Lord who had appeared to him.
