< تكوين 12 >
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لأَبْرَامَ: «اتْرُكْ أَرْضَكَ وَعَشِيرَتَكَ وَبَيْتَ أَبِيكَ وَاذْهَبْ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي أُرِيكَ، | ١ 1 |
Now the LORD said unto Abram: 'Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto the land that I will show thee.
فَأَجْعَلَ مِنْكَ أُمَّةً كَبِيرَةً وَأُبَارِكَكَ وَأُعَظِّمَ اسْمَكَ، وَتَكُونَ بَرَكَةً (لِكَثِيرِينَ). | ٢ 2 |
And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and be thou a blessing.
وَأُبَارِكُ مُبَارِكِيكَ وَأَلْعَنُ لاعِنِيكَ، وَتَتَبَارَكُ فِيكَ جَمِيعُ أُمَمِ الأَرْضِ». | ٣ 3 |
And I will bless them that bless thee, and him that curseth thee will I curse; and in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed.'
فَارْتَحَلَ أَبْرَامُ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ الرَّبُّ، وَرَافَقَهُ لُوطٌ. وَكَانَ أَبْرَامُ فِي الْخَامِسَةِ وَالسَّبْعِينَ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ عِنْدَمَا غَادَرَ حَارَانَ. | ٤ 4 |
So Abram went, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him; and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.
وَأَخَذَ أَبْرَامُ سَارَايَ زَوْجَتَهُ وَلُوطاً ابْنَ أَخِيهِ وَكُلَّ مَا جَمَعَاهُ مِنْ مُقْتَنَيَاتٍ وَكُلَّ مَا امْتَلَكَاهُ مِنْ نُفُوسٍ فِي حَارَانَ، وَانْطَلَقُوا جَمِيعاً إِلَى أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ إِلَى أَنْ وَصَلُوهَا. | ٥ 5 |
And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran; and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.
فَشَرَعَ أَبْرَامُ يَتَنَقَّلُ فِي الأَرْضِ إِلَى أَنْ بَلَغَ مَوْضِعَ شَكِيمَ إِلَى سَهْلِ مُورَةَ. وَكَانَ الْكَنْعَانِيُّونَ آنَئِذٍ يَقْطُنُونَ تِلْكَ الأَرْضَ. | ٦ 6 |
And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Shechem, unto the terebinth of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.
وَظَهَرَ الرَّبُّ لأَبْرَامَ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «سَأُعْطِي هَذِهِ الأَرْضَ لِذُرِّيَّتِكَ». فَبَنَى أَبْرَامُ هُنَاكَ مَذْبَحاً لِلرَّبِّ الَّذِي ظَهَرَ لَهُ. | ٧ 7 |
And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said: 'Unto thy seed will I give this land'; and he builded there an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.
وَانْتَقَلَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى الْجَبَلِ شَرْقِيَّ بَيْتِ إِيلٍ حَيْثُ نَصَبَ خِيَامَهُ مَا بَيْنَ بَيْتِ إِيلٍ غَرْباً وَعَايَ شَرْقاً وَشَيَّدَ هُنَاكَ مَذْبَحاً لِلرَّبِّ وَدَعَا بِاسْمِهِ. | ٨ 8 |
And he removed from thence unto the mountain on the east of Beth-el, and pitched his tent, having Beth-el on the west, and Ai on the east; and he builded there an altar unto the LORD, and called upon the name of the LORD.
ثُمَّ تَابَعَ أَبْرَامُ ارْتِحَالَهُ نَحْوَ الْجَنُوبِ. | ٩ 9 |
And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the South.
وَعَمَّتْ تِلْكَ الْبِلادَ مَجَاعَةٌ، فَانْحَدَرَ أَبْرَامُ إِلَى مِصْرَ لِيَتَغَرَّبَ فِيهَا لأَنَّ الْمَجَاعَةَ كَانَتْ شَدِيدَةً فِي الأَرْضِ. | ١٠ 10 |
And there was a famine in the land; and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was sore in the land.
وَمَا إِنِ اقْتَرَبَ مِنْ تُخُومِ مِصْرَ حَتَّى قَالَ لِزَوْجَتِهِ سَارَايَ: «أَنَا أَعْرِفُ أَنَّكِ امْرَأَةٌ جَمِيلَةٌ، | ١١ 11 |
And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife: 'Behold now, I know that thou art a fair woman to look upon.
فَمَا إِنْ يَرَاكِ الْمِصْرِيُّونَ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا: هَذِهِ هِيَ زَوْجَتُهُ فَيَقْتُلُونَنِي وَيَسْتَحْيُونَكِ. | ١٢ 12 |
And it will come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see thee, that they will say: This is his wife; and they will kill me, but thee they will keep alive.
لِذَلِكَ قُولِي إِنَّكِ أُخْتِي، فَيُحْسِنُوا مُعَامَلَتِي مِنْ أَجْلِكِ وَتَنْجُوَ حَيَاتِي بِفَضْلِكِ». | ١٣ 13 |
Say, I pray thee, thou art my sister; that it may be well with me for thy sake, and that my soul may live because of thee.'
وَلَمَّا اقْتَرَبَ أَبْرَامُ مِنْ مِصْرَ اسْتَرْعَى جَمَالُ سَارَايَ أَنْظَارَ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ، | ١٤ 14 |
And it came to pass, that, when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair.
وَشَاهَدَهَا أَيْضاً رُؤَسَاءُ فِرْعَوْنَ فَأَشَادُوا بِها أَمَامَهُ. فَأُخِذَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ إِلَى بَيْتِ فِرْعَوْنَ. | ١٥ 15 |
And the princes of Pharaoh saw her, and praised her to Pharaoh; and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.
فَأَحْسَنَ إِلَى أَبْرَامَ بِسَبَبِهَا وَأَجْزَلَ لَهُ الْعَطَاءَ مِنَ الْغَنَمِ وَالْبَقَرِ وَالْحَمِيرِ وَالْعَبِيدِ وَالإِمَاءِ وَالأُتُنِ وَالْجِمَالِ. | ١٦ 16 |
And he dealt well with Abram for her sake; and he had sheep, and oxen, and he-asses, and men-servants, and maid-servants, and she-asses, and camels.
وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ ابْتَلَى فِرْعَوْنَ وَأَهْلَهُ بِبَلايَا عَظِيمَةٍ بِسَبَبِ سَارَايَ زَوْجَةِ أَبْرَامَ. | ١٧ 17 |
And the LORD plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai Abram's wife.
فَاسْتَدْعَى فِرْعَوْنُ أَبْرَامَ وَسَأَلَهُ: «مَاذَا فَعَلْتَ بِي؟ لِمَاذَا لَمْ تُخْبِرْنِي أَنَّهَا زَوْجَتُكَ؟ | ١٨ 18 |
And Pharaoh called Abram, and said: 'What is this that thou hast done unto me? why didst thou not tell me that she was thy wife?
وَلِمَاذَا ادَّعَيْتَ أَنَّهَا أُخْتُكَ حَتَّى أَخَذْتُهَا لِتَكُونَ زَوْجَةً لِي؟ وَالآنَ هَا هِيَ زَوْجَتُكَ، خُذْهَا وَامْضِ فِي طَرِيقِكَ». | ١٩ 19 |
Why saidst thou: She is my sister? so that I took her to be my wife; now therefore behold thy wife, take her, and go thy way.'
وَأَوْصَى فِرْعَوْنُ رِجَالَهُ بِأَبْرَامَ، فَشَيَّعُوهُ وَامْرَأَتَهُ وَكُلَّ مَا كَانَ يَمْلِكُ. | ٢٠ 20 |
And Pharaoh gave men charge concerning him; and they brought him on the way, and his wife, and all that he had.
