اَلتَّكْوِينُ 12
| وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِأَبْرَامَ: «ٱذْهَبْ مِنْ أَرْضِكَ وَمِنْ عَشِيرَتِكَ وَمِنْ بَيْتِ أَبِيكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أُرِيكَ. | ١ 1 |
And YHWH says to Abram, “Go for yourself, from your land, and from your family, and from the house of your father, to the land which I show you.
| فَأَجْعَلَكَ أُمَّةً عَظِيمَةً وَأُبَارِكَكَ وَأُعَظِّمَ ٱسْمَكَ، وَتَكُونَ بَرَكَةً. | ٢ 2 |
And I make you become a great nation, and bless you, and make your name great; and be a blessing.
| وَأُبَارِكُ مُبَارِكِيكَ، وَلَاعِنَكَ أَلْعَنُهُ. وَتَتَبَارَكُ فِيكَ جَمِيعُ قَبَائِلِ ٱلْأَرْضِ». | ٣ 3 |
And I bless those blessing you, and I curse him who is cursing you, and all families of the ground have been blessed in you.”
| فَذَهَبَ أَبْرَامُ كَمَا قَالَ لَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ وَذَهَبَ مَعَهُ لُوطٌ. وَكَانَ أَبْرَامُ ٱبْنَ خَمْسٍ وَسَبْعِينَ سَنَةً لَمَّا خَرَجَ مِنْ حَارَانَ. | ٤ 4 |
And Abram goes on, as YHWH has spoken to him, and Lot goes with him, and Abram [is] a son of seventy-five years in his going out from Haran.
| فَأَخَذَ أَبْرَامُ سَارَايَ ٱمْرَأَتَهُ، وَلُوطًا ٱبْنَ أَخِيهِ، وَكُلَّ مُقْتَنَيَاتِهِمَا ٱلَّتِي ٱقْتَنَيَا وَٱلنُّفُوسَ ٱلَّتِي ٱمْتَلَكَا فِي حَارَانَ. وَخَرَجُوا لِيَذْهَبُوا إِلَى أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ. فَأَتَوْا إِلَى أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ. | ٥ 5 |
And Abram takes his wife Sarai, and his brother’s son Lot, and all their substance that they have gained, and the persons that they have obtained in Haran; and they go out to go toward the land of Canaan; and they come to the land of Canaan.
| وَٱجْتَازَ أَبْرَامُ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَى مَكَانِ شَكِيمَ إِلَى بَلُّوطَةِ مُورَةَ. وَكَانَ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيُّونَ حِينَئِذٍ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٦ 6 |
And Abram passes over into the land, to the place of Shechem, to the oak of Moreh; and the Canaanite [is] then in the land.
| وَظَهَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِأَبْرَامَ وَقَالَ: «لِنَسْلِكَ أُعْطِي هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضَ». فَبَنَى هُنَاكَ مَذْبَحًا لِلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي ظَهَرَ لَهُ. | ٧ 7 |
And YHWH appears to Abram and says, “To your seed I give this land”; and there he builds an altar to YHWH, who has appeared to him.
| ثُمَّ نَقَلَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ شَرْقِيَّ بَيْتِ إِيلٍ وَنَصَبَ خَيْمَتَهُ. وَلَهُ بَيْتُ إِيلَ مِنَ ٱلْمَغْرِبِ وَعَايُ مِنَ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ. فَبَنَى هُنَاكَ مَذْبَحًا لِلرَّبِّ وَدَعَا بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٨ 8 |
And he removes from there toward a mountain at the east of Beth-El, and stretches out the tent (Beth-El at the west, and Hai at the east), and he builds an altar to YHWH there, and preaches in the Name of YHWH.
| ثُمَّ ٱرْتَحَلَ أَبْرَامُ ٱرْتِحَالًا مُتَوَالِيًا نَحْوَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ. | ٩ 9 |
And Abram journeys, going on and journeying toward the south.
| وَحَدَثَ جُوعٌ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَٱنْحَدَرَ أَبْرَامُ إِلَى مِصْرَ لِيَتَغَرَّبَ هُنَاكَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْجُوعَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ كَانَ شَدِيدًا. | ١٠ 10 |
And there is a famine in the land, and Abram goes down toward Egypt to sojourn there, for the famine [is] grievous in the land;
| وَحَدَثَ لَمَّا قَرُبَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ مِصْرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِسَارَايَ ٱمْرَأَتِهِ: «إِنِّي قَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكِ ٱمْرَأَةٌ حَسَنَةُ ٱلْمَنْظَرِ. | ١١ 11 |
and it comes to pass as he has drawn near to enter Egypt, that he says to his wife Sarai, “Now behold, I have known that you [are] a woman of beautiful appearance;
| فَيَكُونُ إِذَا رَآكِ ٱلْمِصْرِيُّونَ أَنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ: هَذِهِ ٱمْرَأَتُهُ. فَيَقْتُلُونَنِي وَيَسْتَبْقُونَكِ. | ١٢ 12 |
and it has come to pass that the Egyptians see you, and they have said, This [is] his wife; and they have slain me, and you they keep alive:
| قُولِي إِنَّكِ أُخْتِي، لِيَكُونَ لِي خَيْرٌ بِسَبَبِكِ وَتَحْيَا نَفْسِي مِنْ أَجْلِكِ». | ١٣ 13 |
please say you [are] my sister, so that it is well with me because of you, and my soul has lived for your sake.”
| فَحَدَثَ لَمَّا دَخَلَ أَبْرَامُ إِلَى مِصْرَ أَنَّ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ رَأَوْا ٱلْمَرْأَةَ أَنَّهَا حَسَنَةٌ جِدًّا. | ١٤ 14 |
And it comes to pass, at the entering of Abram into Egypt, that the Egyptians see the woman that she [is] exceedingly beautiful;
| وَرَآهَا رُؤَسَاءُ فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَدَحُوهَا لَدَى فِرْعَوْنَ، فَأُخِذَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ إِلَى بَيْتِ فِرْعَوْنَ، | ١٥ 15 |
and princes of Pharaoh see her, and praise her to Pharaoh, and the woman is taken [to] Pharaoh’s house;
| فَصَنَعَ إِلَى أَبْرَامَ خَيْرًا بِسَبَبِهَا، وَصَارَ لَهُ غَنَمٌ وَبَقَرٌ وَحَمِيرٌ وَعَبِيدٌ وَإِمَاءٌ وَأُتُنٌ وَجِمَالٌ. | ١٦ 16 |
and to Abram he has done good because of her, and he has sheep and oxen, and male donkeys, and menservants, and handmaids, and female donkeys, and camels.
| فَضَرَبَ ٱلرَّبُّ فِرْعَوْنَ وَبَيْتَهُ ضَرَبَاتٍ عَظِيمَةً بِسَبَبِ سَارَايَ ٱمْرَأَةِ أَبْرَامَ. | ١٧ 17 |
And YHWH plagues Pharaoh and his house—great plagues—for the matter of Sarai, Abram’s wife.
| فَدَعَا فِرْعَوْنُ أَبْرَامَ وَقَالَ: «مَا هَذَا ٱلَّذِي صَنَعْتَ بِي؟ لِمَاذَا لَمْ تُخْبِرْنِي أَنَّهَا ٱمْرَأَتُكَ؟ | ١٨ 18 |
And Pharaoh calls for Abram and says, “What [is] this you have done to me? Why have you not declared to me that she [is] your wife?
| لِمَاذَا قُلْتَ: هِيَ أُخْتِي، حَتَّى أَخَذْتُهَا لِي لِتَكُونَ زَوْجَتِي؟ وَٱلْآنَ هُوَذَا ٱمْرَأَتُكَ! خُذْهَا وَٱذْهَبْ!». | ١٩ 19 |
Why have you said, She [is] my sister, and I take her to myself for a wife? And now, behold, your wife, take and go.”
| فَأَوْصَى عَلَيْهِ فِرْعَوْنُ رِجَالًا فَشَيَّعُوهُ وَٱمْرَأَتَهُ وَكُلَّ مَا كَانَ لَهُ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And Pharaoh charges men concerning him, and they send him away, and his wife, and all that he has.
