< تكوين 12 >
وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لأَبْرَامَ: «اتْرُكْ أَرْضَكَ وَعَشِيرَتَكَ وَبَيْتَ أَبِيكَ وَاذْهَبْ إِلَى الأَرْضِ الَّتِي أُرِيكَ، | ١ 1 |
Now God had said to Abram, "Go out from your country, and from your relatives, and from your father's house, to the land that I will show you.
فَأَجْعَلَ مِنْكَ أُمَّةً كَبِيرَةً وَأُبَارِكَكَ وَأُعَظِّمَ اسْمَكَ، وَتَكُونَ بَرَكَةً (لِكَثِيرِينَ). | ٢ 2 |
And I will make of you a great nation. And I will bless you and make your name great. And you will be a blessing.
وَأُبَارِكُ مُبَارِكِيكَ وَأَلْعَنُ لاعِنِيكَ، وَتَتَبَارَكُ فِيكَ جَمِيعُ أُمَمِ الأَرْضِ». | ٣ 3 |
And I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse those who treat you with contempt, and through you all the families of the earth will be blessed."
فَارْتَحَلَ أَبْرَامُ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ الرَّبُّ، وَرَافَقَهُ لُوطٌ. وَكَانَ أَبْرَامُ فِي الْخَامِسَةِ وَالسَّبْعِينَ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ عِنْدَمَا غَادَرَ حَارَانَ. | ٤ 4 |
So Abram left, as God had told him, and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed from 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 |
Abram took Sarai his wife, Lot his brother's son, and all their possessions that they had accumulated, and the people whom they had acquired in Haran, and they left to go to the land of Canaan. And they came to the land of Canaan,
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 to the place of Shechem, to the oak of Moreh. At that time the Canaanites were in the land.
وَظَهَرَ الرَّبُّ لأَبْرَامَ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «سَأُعْطِي هَذِهِ الأَرْضَ لِذُرِّيَّتِكَ». فَبَنَى أَبْرَامُ هُنَاكَ مَذْبَحاً لِلرَّبِّ الَّذِي ظَهَرَ لَهُ. | ٧ 7 |
Then God appeared to Abram and said to him, "I will give this land to your offspring." He built an altar there to God, who appeared to 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 |
He left from there to the mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Ai on the east. There he built an altar and called on the name of God.
ثُمَّ تَابَعَ أَبْرَامُ ارْتِحَالَهُ نَحْوَ الْجَنُوبِ. | ٩ 9 |
And Abram traveled on, continuing toward the Negev.
وَعَمَّتْ تِلْكَ الْبِلادَ مَجَاعَةٌ، فَانْحَدَرَ أَبْرَامُ إِلَى مِصْرَ لِيَتَغَرَّبَ فِيهَا لأَنَّ الْمَجَاعَةَ كَانَتْ شَدِيدَةً فِي الأَرْضِ. | ١٠ 10 |
There was a famine in the land, so Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there, because the famine was severe in the land.
وَمَا إِنِ اقْتَرَبَ مِنْ تُخُومِ مِصْرَ حَتَّى قَالَ لِزَوْجَتِهِ سَارَايَ: «أَنَا أَعْرِفُ أَنَّكِ امْرَأَةٌ جَمِيلَةٌ، | ١١ 11 |
It happened, when he had come near to enter Egypt, that he said to Sarai his wife, "Look, I know what a beautiful woman you are.
فَمَا إِنْ يَرَاكِ الْمِصْرِيُّونَ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا: هَذِهِ هِيَ زَوْجَتُهُ فَيَقْتُلُونَنِي وَيَسْتَحْيُونَكِ. | ١٢ 12 |
It will happen, when the Egyptians will see you, that they will say, 'This is his wife.' And they will kill me, but they will let you live.
لِذَلِكَ قُولِي إِنَّكِ أُخْتِي، فَيُحْسِنُوا مُعَامَلَتِي مِنْ أَجْلِكِ وَتَنْجُوَ حَيَاتِي بِفَضْلِكِ». | ١٣ 13 |
Please say that you are my sister, that it may be well with me for your sake, and that I may live because of you."
وَلَمَّا اقْتَرَبَ أَبْرَامُ مِنْ مِصْرَ اسْتَرْعَى جَمَالُ سَارَايَ أَنْظَارَ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ، | ١٤ 14 |
It happened that when Abram had come into Egypt, the Egyptians saw that the woman was very beautiful.
وَشَاهَدَهَا أَيْضاً رُؤَسَاءُ فِرْعَوْنَ فَأَشَادُوا بِها أَمَامَهُ. فَأُخِذَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ إِلَى بَيْتِ فِرْعَوْنَ. | ١٥ 15 |
The princes of Pharaoh saw her, and praised her to Pharaoh; and the woman was taken into the household of Pharaoh.
فَأَحْسَنَ إِلَى أَبْرَامَ بِسَبَبِهَا وَأَجْزَلَ لَهُ الْعَطَاءَ مِنَ الْغَنَمِ وَالْبَقَرِ وَالْحَمِيرِ وَالْعَبِيدِ وَالإِمَاءِ وَالأُتُنِ وَالْجِمَالِ. | ١٦ 16 |
He dealt well with Abram for her sake, and he acquired sheep, cattle, male donkeys, male servants, female servants, female donkeys, and camels.
وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ ابْتَلَى فِرْعَوْنَ وَأَهْلَهُ بِبَلايَا عَظِيمَةٍ بِسَبَبِ سَارَايَ زَوْجَةِ أَبْرَامَ. | ١٧ 17 |
But God plagued Pharaoh and his house with great and grievous plagues because of Sarai, Abram's wife.
فَاسْتَدْعَى فِرْعَوْنُ أَبْرَامَ وَسَأَلَهُ: «مَاذَا فَعَلْتَ بِي؟ لِمَاذَا لَمْ تُخْبِرْنِي أَنَّهَا زَوْجَتُكَ؟ | ١٨ 18 |
Pharaoh summoned Abram and said, "What is this that you have done to me? Why did you not tell me that she was your wife?
وَلِمَاذَا ادَّعَيْتَ أَنَّهَا أُخْتُكَ حَتَّى أَخَذْتُهَا لِتَكُونَ زَوْجَةً لِي؟ وَالآنَ هَا هِيَ زَوْجَتُكَ، خُذْهَا وَامْضِ فِي طَرِيقِكَ». | ١٩ 19 |
Why did you say, 'She is my sister,' so that I took her to be my wife? Now therefore, look, your wife is before you. Take, and go."
وَأَوْصَى فِرْعَوْنُ رِجَالَهُ بِأَبْرَامَ، فَشَيَّعُوهُ وَامْرَأَتَهُ وَكُلَّ مَا كَانَ يَمْلِكُ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Pharaoh commanded men concerning him, and they sent him away with his wife and all his possessions.
