< تكوين 20 >
وَارْتَحَلَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ مِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى أَرْضِ النَّقَبِ، وَأَقَامَ بَيْنَ قَادَشَ وَشُورَ، وَتَغَرَّبَ فِي جَرَارَ. | ١ 1 |
And Abraham journeyed from thence toward the south country, and dwelled between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourned in Gerar.
وَهُنَاكَ قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ عَنْ سَارَةَ زَوْجَتِهِ: «هِيَ أُخْتِي». فَأَرْسَلَ أَبِيمَالِكُ مَلِكُ جَرَارَ وَأَحْضَرَ سَارَةَ إِلَيْهِ. | ٢ 2 |
And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She [is] my sister: and Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.
وَلِكَنَّ اللهَ تَجَلَّى لأَبِيمَالِكَ فِي حُلْمٍ فِي اللَّيْلِ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «إِنَّكَ سَتَمُوتُ بِسَبَبِ الْمَرْأَةِ الَّتِي أَخَذْتَهَا، فَإِنَّهَا مُتَزَوِّجَةٌ». | ٣ 3 |
But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, Behold, thou [art but] a dead man, for the woman which thou hast taken; for she [is] a man’s wife.
وَلَمْ يَكُنْ أَبِيمَالِكُ قَدْ مَسَّهَا بَعْدُ، فَقَالَ لِلرَّبِّ: «أَتُمِيتُ أُمَّةً بَرِيئَةً؟ | ٤ 4 |
But Abimelech had not come near her: and he said, Lord, wilt thou slay also a righteous nation?
أَلَمْ يَقُلْ لِي إِنَّهَا أُخْتِي وَهِيَ نَفْسُهَا ادَّعَتْ أَنَّهُ أَخُوهَا؟ مَا فَعَلْتُ هَذَا إِلّا بِسَلامَةِ قَلْبِي وَطَهَارَةِ يَدَيَّ». | ٥ 5 |
Said he not unto me, She [is] my sister? and she, even she herself said, He [is] my brother: in the integrity of my heart and innocency of my hands have I done this.
فَأَجَابَهُ الرَّبُّ: «أَنَا أَيْضاً عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكَ بِسَلامَةِ قَلْبِكَ قَدْ فَعَلْتَ هَذَا، وَأَنَا أَيْضاً مَنَعْتُكَ مِنْ أَنْ تُخْطِئَ إِلَيَّ وَلَمْ أَدَعْكَ تَمَسُّهَا. | ٦ 6 |
And God said unto him in a dream, Yea, I know that thou didst this in the integrity of thy heart; for I also withheld thee from sinning against me: therefore suffered I thee not to touch her.
وَالآنَ، رُدَّ لِلرَّجُلِ زَوْجَتَهُ فَإِنَّهُ نَبِيٌّ، فَيُصَلِّيَ مِنْ أَجْلِكَ فَتَحْيَا. وَإِنْ لَمْ تَرُدَّهَا فَإِنَّك وَكُلَّ مَنْ لَكَ حَتْماً تَمُوتُونَ». | ٧ 7 |
Now therefore restore the man [his] wife; for he [is] a prophet, and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live: and if thou restore [her] not, know thou that thou shalt surely die, thou, and all that [are] thine.
فَبَكَّرَ أَبِيمَالِكُ فِي الصَّبَاحِ وَاسْتَدْعَى جَمِيعَ عَبِيدِهِ، وَأَطْلَعَهُمْ عَلَى جَلِيَّةِ الأَمْرِ، فَاعْتَرَاهُمْ خَوْفٌ عَظِيمٌ. | ٨ 8 |
Therefore Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ears: and the men were sore afraid.
ثُمَّ دَعَا أَبِيمَالِكُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «مَاذَا فَعَلْتَ بِنَا؟ أَيُّ خَطَأٍ ارْتَكَبْتُهُ فِي حَقِّكَ حَتَّى جَلَبْتَ عَلَيَّ وَعَلَى مَمْلَكَتِي هَذَا الذَّنْبَ الْعَظِيمَ؟ لَقَدِ اقْتَرَفْتَ فِي حَقِّي أُمُوراً مَا كَانَ يَجِبُ أَنْ تَقْتَرِفَهَا». | ٩ 9 |
Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said unto him, What hast thou done unto us? and what have I offended thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? thou hast done deeds unto me that ought not to be done.
وَسَأَلَ أَبِيمَالِكُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ: «مَاذَا بَدَا لَكَ حَتَّى ارْتَكَبْتَ هَذَا الْفِعْلَ؟» | ١٠ 10 |
And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What sawest thou, that thou hast done this thing?
فَقَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ: «لَقَدْ فَعَلْتُ هَذَا لأَنَّنِي ظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ فِي هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ بِأَسْرِهِ خَوْفُ اللهِ فَخَشِيتُ أَنْ تَقْتُلُونِي مِنْ أَجْلِ زَوْجَتِي. | ١١ 11 |
And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely the fear of God [is] not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife’s sake.
وَهِيَ بِالْحَقِيقَةِ أُخْتِي، ابْنَةُ أَبِي، غَيْرَ أَنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ ابْنَةَ أُمِّي فَاتَّخَذْتُهَا زَوْجَةً لِي. | ١٢ 12 |
And yet indeed [she is] my sister; she [is] the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.
وَعِنْدَمَا دَعَانِي اللهُ لأَتَغَرَّبَ بَعِيداً عَنْ بَيْتِ أَبِي قُلْتُ لَهَا: حَيْثُمَا نَذْهَبُ قُولِي إِنِّي أَخُوكِ فَهَذَا هُوَ الْمَعْرُوفُ الَّذِي تَصْنَعِينَهُ لِي». | ١٣ 13 |
And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father’s house, that I said unto her, This [is] thy kindness which thou shalt shew unto me; at every place whither we shall come, say of me, He [is] my brother.
فَأَخَذَ أَبِيمَالِكُ غَنَماً وَبَقَراً وَعَبِيداً وَإِمَاءً وَقَدَّمَهَا لإِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَأَرْجَعَ إِلَيْهِ سَارَةَ زَوْجَتَهُ. | ١٤ 14 |
And Abimelech took sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and womenservants, and gave [them] unto Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife.
وَقَالَ أَبِيمَالِكُ: «هَا هِيَ أَرْضِي أَمَامَكَ فَأَقِمْ حَيْثُ طَابَ لَكَ». | ١٥ 15 |
And Abimelech said, Behold, my land [is] before thee: dwell where it pleaseth thee.
وَقَالَ لِسَارَةَ: «هَا قَدْ وَهَبْتُ أَخَاكِ أَلْفَ قِطْعَةٍ مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ، تَبْرِئَةً لَكِ مِنْ كُلِّ إِسَاءَةٍ أَمَامَ الَّذِينَ مَعَكِ، فَأَنْتِ بَرِيئَةٌ أَمَامَ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ، وَهَكَذَا تَكُونِينَ قَدْ أُنْصِفْتِ». | ١٦ 16 |
And unto Sarah he said, Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand [pieces] of silver: behold, he [is] to thee a covering of the eyes, unto all that [are] with thee, and with all [other: ] thus she was reproved.
فَابْتَهَلَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ إِلَى اللهِ، فَشَفَى أَبِيمَالِكَ وَزَوْجَتَهُ وَجَوَارِيَهُ فَوَلَدْنَ. | ١٧ 17 |
So Abraham prayed unto God: and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maidservants; and they bare [children].
لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ كَانَ قَدْ أَصَابَ نِسَاءَ بَيْتِ أَبِيمَالِكَ بِالْعُقْمِ مِنْ أَجْلِ سَارَةَ زَوْجَةِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ. | ١٨ 18 |
For the LORD had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham’s wife.
