Genesis 12:9

³He went on his journeys from the South as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,

⁶²Isaac came from the way of Beer Lahai Roi, for he lived in the land of the South.

¹Abram went up out of Egypt—he, his wife, all that he had, and Lot with him—into the South.

¹³They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.

¹³These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen^[+] them and embraced them from afar, and having confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. ¹⁴For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own.
