اَلتَّكْوِينُ 21
| وَٱفْتَقَدَ ٱلرَّبُّ سَارَةَ كَمَا قَالَ، وَفَعَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِسَارَةَ كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ. | ١ 1 |
And YHWH has looked after Sarah as He has said, and YHWH does to Sarah as He has spoken;
| فَحَبِلَتْ سَارَةُ وَوَلَدَتْ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ ٱبْنًا فِي شَيْخُوخَتِهِ، فِي ٱلْوَقْتِ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ ٱللهُ عَنْهُ. | ٢ 2 |
and Sarah conceives, and bears a son to Abraham, to his old age, at the appointed time that God has spoken of with him;
| وَدَعَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ ٱسْمَ ٱبْنِهِ ٱلْمَوْلُودِ لَهُ، ٱلَّذِي وَلَدَتْهُ لَهُ سَارَةُ «إِسْحَاقَ». | ٣ 3 |
and Abraham calls the name of his son who is born to him, whom Sarah has borne to him—Isaac;
| وَخَتَنَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ إِسْحَاقَ ٱبْنَهُ وَهُوَ ٱبْنُ ثَمَانِيَةِ أَيَّامٍ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ ٱللهُ. | ٤ 4 |
and Abraham circumcises his son Isaac, [being] a son of eight days, as God has commanded him.
| وَكَانَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ ٱبْنَ مِئَةِ سَنَةٍ حِينَ وُلِدَ لَهُ إِسْحَاقُ ٱبْنُهُ. | ٥ 5 |
And Abraham [is] a son of one hundred years in his son Isaac being born to him,
| وَقَالَتْ سَارَةُ: «قَدْ صَنَعَ إِلَيَّ ٱللهُ ضِحْكًا. كُلُّ مَنْ يَسْمَعُ يَضْحَكُ لِي». | ٦ 6 |
and Sarah says, “God has made laughter for me; everyone who is hearing laughs for me.”
| وَقَالَتْ: «مَنْ قَالَ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ: سَارَةُ تُرْضِعُ بَنِينَ؟ حَتَّى وَلَدْتُ ٱبْنًا فِي شَيْخُوخَتِهِ!». | ٧ 7 |
She also says, “Who has said to Abraham, Sarah has suckled sons, that I have born a son for his old age?”
| فَكَبِرَ ٱلْوَلَدُ وَفُطِمَ. وَصَنَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ وَلِيمَةً عَظِيمَةً يَوْمَ فِطَامِ إِسْحَاقَ. | ٨ 8 |
And the boy grows, and is weaned, and Abraham makes a great banquet in the day of Isaac’s being weaned;
| وَرَأَتْ سَارَةُ ٱبْنَ هَاجَرَ ٱلْمِصْرِيَّةِ ٱلَّذِي وَلَدَتْهُ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ يَمْزَحُ، | ٩ 9 |
and Sarah sees the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she has borne to Abraham, mocking,
| فَقَالَتْ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ: «ٱطْرُدْ هَذِهِ ٱلْجَارِيَةَ وَٱبْنَهَا، لِأَنَّ ٱبْنَ هَذِهِ ٱلْجَارِيَةِ لَا يَرِثُ مَعَ ٱبْنِي إِسْحَاقَ». | ١٠ 10 |
and she says to Abraham, “Cast out this handmaid and her son; for the son of this handmaid has no possession with my son—with Isaac.”
| فَقَبُحَ ٱلْكَلَامُ جِدًّا فِي عَيْنَيْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ لِسَبَبِ ٱبْنِهِ. | ١١ 11 |
And the thing is very wrong in the eyes of Abraham, for his son’s sake;
| فَقَالَ ٱللهُ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ: «لَا يَقْبُحُ فِي عَيْنَيْكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْغُلَامِ وَمِنْ أَجْلِ جَارِيَتِكَ. فِي كُلِّ مَا تَقُولُ لَكَ سَارَةُ ٱسْمَعْ لِقَوْلِهَا، لِأَنَّهُ بِإِسْحَاقَ يُدْعَى لَكَ نَسْلٌ. | ١٢ 12 |
and God says to Abraham, “Let it not be wrong in your eyes because of the youth, and because of your handmaid: all that Sarah says to you—listen to her voice, for in Isaac is a seed called to you.
| وَٱبْنُ ٱلْجَارِيَةِ أَيْضًا سَأَجْعَلُهُ أُمَّةً لِأَنَّهُ نَسْلُكَ». | ١٣ 13 |
As for the son of the handmaid also, for a nation I set him, because he [is] your seed.”
| فَبَكَّرَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ صَبَاحًا وَأَخَذَ خُبْزًا وَقِرْبَةَ مَاءٍ وَأَعْطَاهُمَا لِهَاجَرَ، وَاضِعًا إِيَّاهُمَا عَلَى كَتِفِهَا، وَٱلْوَلَدَ، وَصَرَفَهَا. فَمَضَتْ وَتَاهَتْ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ. | ١٤ 14 |
And Abraham rises early in the morning, and takes bread, and a bottle of water, and gives to Hagar (placing [it] on her shoulder), also the boy, and sends her out; and she goes on, and goes astray in the wilderness of Beer-Sheba;
| وَلَمَّا فَرَغَ ٱلْمَاءُ مِنَ ٱلْقِرْبَةِ طَرَحَتِ ٱلْوَلَدَ تَحْتَ إِحْدَى ٱلْأَشْجَارِ، | ١٥ 15 |
and the water is consumed from the bottle, and she places the boy under one of the shrubs.
| وَمَضَتْ وَجَلَسَتْ مُقَابِلَهُ بَعِيدًا نَحْوَ رَمْيَةِ قَوْسٍ، لِأَنَّهَا قَالَتْ: «لَا أَنْظُرُ مَوْتَ ٱلْوَلَدِ». فَجَلَسَتْ مُقَابِلَهُ وَرَفَعَتْ صَوْتَهَا وَبَكَتْ. | ١٦ 16 |
And she goes and sits by herself opposite [him], far off, about a bow-shot, for she said, “Do not let me look on the death of the boy”; and she sits opposite [him], and lifts up her voice, and weeps.
| فَسَمِعَ ٱللهُ صَوْتَ ٱلْغُلَامِ، وَنَادَى مَلَاكُ ٱللهِ هَاجَرَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَقَالَ لَهَا: «مَا لَكِ يَا هَاجَرُ؟ لَا تَخَافِي، لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ قَدْ سَمِعَ لِصَوْتِ ٱلْغُلَامِ حَيْثُ هُوَ. | ١٧ 17 |
And God hears the voice of the youth; and the messenger of God calls to Hagar from the heavens and says to her, “What to you, Hagar? Do not fear; for God has listened to the voice of the youth where he [is];
| قُومِي ٱحْمِلِي ٱلْغُلَامَ وَشُدِّي يَدَكِ بِهِ، لِأَنِّي سَأَجْعَلُهُ أُمَّةً عَظِيمَةً». | ١٨ 18 |
rise, lift up the youth, and lay hold on him with your hand, for I set him for a great nation.”
| وَفَتَحَ ٱللهُ عَيْنَيْهَا فَأَبْصَرَتْ بِئْرَ مَاءٍ، فَذَهَبَتْ وَمَلَأَتِ ٱلْقِرْبَةَ مَاءً وَسَقَتِ ٱلْغُلَامَ. | ١٩ 19 |
And God opens her eyes, and she sees a well of water, and she goes and fills the bottle [with] water, and causes the youth to drink;
| وَكَانَ ٱللهُ مَعَ ٱلْغُلَامِ فَكَبِرَ، وَسَكَنَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، وَكَانَ يَنْمُو رَامِيَ قَوْسٍ. | ٢٠ 20 |
and God is with the youth, and he grows, and dwells in the wilderness, and is an archer;
| وَسَكَنَ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ فَارَانَ، وَأَخَذَتْ لَهُ أُمُّهُ زَوْجَةً مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ. | ٢١ 21 |
and he dwells in the wilderness of Paran, and his mother takes for him a wife from the land of Egypt.
| وَحَدَثَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلزَّمَانِ أَنَّ أَبِيمَالِكَ وَفِيكُولَ رَئِيسَ جَيْشِهِ كَلَّمَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَائِلَيْنِ: «ٱللهُ مَعَكَ فِي كُلِّ مَا أَنْتَ صَانِعٌ. | ٢٢ 22 |
And it comes to pass at that time that Abimelech speaks—Phichol also, head of his host—to Abraham, saying, “God [is] with you in all that you are doing;
| فَٱلْآنَ ٱحْلِفْ لِي بِٱللهِ هَهُنَا أَنَّكَ لَا تَغْدُرُ بِي وَلَا بِنَسْلِي وَذُرِّيَّتِي، كَٱلْمَعْرُوفِ ٱلَّذِي صَنَعْتُ إِلَيْكَ تَصْنَعُ إِلَيَّ وَإِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي تَغَرَّبْتَ فِيهَا». | ٢٣ 23 |
and now, swear to me by God here: you do not lie to me, or to my continuator, or to my successor; according to the kindness which I have done with you—do with me, and with the land in which you have sojourned.”
| فَقَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ: «أَنَا أَحْلِفُ». | ٢٤ 24 |
And Abraham says, “I swear.”
| وَعَاتَبَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ أَبِيمَالِكَ لِسَبَبِ بِئْرِ ٱلْمَاءِ ٱلَّتِي ٱغْتَصَبَهَا عَبِيدُ أَبِيمَالِكَ. | ٢٥ 25 |
And Abraham reasoned with Abimelech concerning the matter of a well of water which Abimelech’s servants have violently taken away,
| فَقَالَ أَبِيمَالِكُ: «لَمْ أَعْلَمْ مَنْ فَعَلَ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرَ. أَنْتَ لَمْ تُخْبِرْنِي، وَلَا أَنَا سَمِعْتُ سِوَى ٱلْيَوْمِ». | ٢٦ 26 |
and Abimelech says, “I have not known who has done this thing, and even you did not declare to me, and I also, I have not heard except today.”
| فَأَخَذَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ غَنَمًا وَبَقَرًا وَأَعْطَى أَبِيمَالِكَ، فَقَطَعَا كِلَاهُمَا مِيثَاقًا. | ٢٧ 27 |
And Abraham takes sheep and oxen, and gives to Abimelech, and they make, both of them, a covenant;
| وَأَقَامَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ سَبْعَ نِعَاجٍ مِنَ ٱلْغَنَمِ وَحْدَهَا. | ٢٨ 28 |
and Abraham sets seven lambs of the flock by themselves.
| فَقَالَ أَبِيمَالِكُ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ: «مَا هِيَ هَذِهِ ٱلسَّبْعُ ٱلنِّعَاجِ ٱلَّتِي أَقَمْتَهَا وَحْدَهَا؟» | ٢٩ 29 |
And Abimelech says to Abraham, “What [are] they—these seven lambs which you have set by themselves?”
| فَقَالَ: «إِنَّكَ سَبْعَ نِعَاجٍ تَأْخُذُ مِنْ يَدِي، لِكَيْ تَكُونَ لِي شَهَادَةً بِأَنِّي حَفَرْتُ هَذِهِ ٱلْبِئْرَ». | ٣٠ 30 |
And he says, “For—the seven lambs you accept from my hand, so that it becomes a witness for me that I have dug this well”;
| لِذَلِكَ دَعَا ذَلِكَ ٱلْمَوْضِعَ «بِئْرَ سَبْعٍ»، لِأَنَّهُمَا هُنَاكَ حَلَفَا كِلَاهُمَا. | ٣١ 31 |
therefore he has called that place “Beer-Sheba,” for both of them have sworn there.
| فَقَطَعَا مِيثَاقًا فِي بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ، ثُمَّ قَامَ أَبِيمَالِكُ وَفِيكُولُ رَئِيسُ جَيْشِهِ وَرَجَعَا إِلَى أَرْضِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ. | ٣٢ 32 |
And they make a covenant in Beer-Sheba, and Abimelech rises—Phichol also, head of his host—and they return to the land of the Philistines;
| وَغَرَسَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ أَثْلًا فِي بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ، وَدَعَا هُنَاكَ بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْإِلَهِ ٱلسَّرْمَدِيِّ. | ٣٣ 33 |
and [Abraham] plants a tamarisk in Beer-Sheba, and preaches there in the Name of YHWH, the perpetual God;
| وَتَغَرَّبَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ أَيَّامًا كَثِيرَةً. | ٣٤ 34 |
and Abraham sojourns in the land of the Philistines many days.
