7At one time they lived in Mesopotamia because they did not wish to follow the gods of their ancestors who were in Chaldea.* 8Since they had abandoned the ways of their ancestors and worshiped the God of heaven, the God they had come to know, their ancestorsi drove them out from the presence of their gods. So they fled to Mesopotamia and lived there for a long time. 9Then their God commanded them to leave the place where they were living and go to the land of Canaan. There they settled and grew very prosperous in gold and silver and very much livestock.*
