Mui 24
1 A: ibalaha: me da ode bagohame lai dagoiba: le, da: idafa ba: su. Be Hina Gode da ea hou huluane amo ganodini hahawane dogolegelewane fidilalusu.
And Abraham was old, and well stricken in age: and YHWH had blessed Abraham in all things.
2 E da ea da: i hamoi hawa: hamosu dunu (amo da ea liligi huluane ouligisu) ema amane sia: i, “Dia lobo amo na masele hagudu ligisili, dafawane ilegele sia: ma!
And Abraham said unto his eldest servant of his house, that ruled over all that he had, Put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh:
3 Na da agoane hanai galebe. Di da Hina Gode amo da Hebene Hina amola osobo bagade Hina, amo Ea Dioba: le gasa bagade sia: ma. Di da Ga: ina: ne fi (amo ganodini na da wali esala) amoga nagofe uda lama: ne mae ilegema.
And I will make thee swear by YHWH, the Elohim of heaven, and the Elohim of the earth, that thou shalt not take a wife unto my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell:
4 Be na musa: fi sogega asili, na fidafa amo ganodini hogolalu, nagofe Aisage uda lama: ne, a:fini sia: sima!”
But thou shalt go unto my country, and to my kindred, and take a wife unto my son Isaac.
5 Ea hawa: hamosu dunu da bu adole ba: i, “Be amo uda da na amola bu sigi misunu hihi galea, na da adi hamoma: bela: ? Na da dia mano amo dia musa: sogega bu oule masa: bela: ?”
And the servant said unto him, Peradventure the woman will not be willing to follow me unto this land: must I needs bring thy son again unto the land from whence thou camest?
6 Be A: ibalaha: me da amane sia: i, “Hame mabu! Di amoga nagofe bu mae oule masa!
And Abraham said unto him, Beware thou that thou bring not my son thither again.
7 Hina Gode amo Hebene amoga Hina esala, e da na ada amo ea diasu amola na soge yolesili ga masa: ne sia: ne, nama gasawane amane sia: i, ‘Na da dafawane ilegele sia: sa! Na da amo soge (Ga: ina: ne) digaga fi ilima imunu.’ Amo Gode da Ea a: igele dunu dima bisimusa: asunasimu. Bai di da amo sogega nagofema ima: ne uda lamu defele ba: mu.
YHWH Elohim of heaven, which took me from my father's house, and from the land of my kindred, and which spake unto me, and that sware unto me, saying, Unto thy seed will I give this land; he shall send his angel before thee, and thou shalt take a wife unto my son from thence.
8 Be uda da di guiguda: oule misunu amo higasea, defea, dia da nama Gode Ea Dioba: le sia: i, amo na da bu hame dawa: mu. Be na mano maedafa bu oule masa.”
And if the woman will not be willing to follow thee, then thou shalt be clear from this my oath: only bring not my son thither again.
9 Amaiba: le, hawa: hamosu dunu da ea hina A: ibalaha: me amo ea masele hagudu ea lobo ligisili, Gode Ea Dioba: le gasa bagade amo liligi hamoma: ne ilegele sia: i.
And the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and sware to him concerning that matter.
10 Amalalu, hawa: hamosu dunu da ea hina ga: mele nabuane gala amo lale, ea hina ea liligi noga: iwane aguni, gadili asi. E da Alame Nahalaime soge amoga doaga: musa: asili, Na: iho moilaiga doaga: i.
And the servant took ten camels of the camels of his master, and departed; for all the goods of his master were in his hand: and he arose, and went to Mesopotamia, unto the city of Nahor.
11 Hano uli dogoi moilai gadili sogebi gala amoga doaga: loba, ea sia: beba: le, ga: mele da muguni bugi. Eso dabe da gadenenewane ba: i. Amoha, uda ilia hou da hano uli dogoi amoga hano dima: ne hiougimusa: ahoasu.
And he made his camels to kneel down without the city by a well of water at the time of the evening, even the time that women go out to draw water.
12 Amalalu, e da Godema amane sia: ne gadoi, “Hina Godedafa! Na hina A: ibalaha: me amo ea Gode! Na hawa: hamosu hahawane dagoma: ne Di fidima, amola na hina A: ibalaha: mema dia asigi hou olelema.
And he said, O YHWH, Elohim of my master Abraham, I pray thee, send me good speed this day, and shew kindness unto my master Abraham.
13 Ba: ma! Na da amo hano nasu ulidou gadenene lela amola amo moilai dunu ilia uda mano da hano dimusa: manebe.
Behold, I stand here by the well of water; and the daughters of the men of the city come out to draw water:
14 Na da agoane hanai gala. Na da a: finima ‘Dia hano disu amo na hano moma: ne ligisima.’ sia: sea, amola e da amane sia: sea, ‘Defea! Moma! Amola na da dia ga: mele moma: ne hano dili imunu.’ Amo hou ba: sea, Hina Gode da amo a: fini na hina ea mano lama: ne ilegei dagoi na da dawa: mu. Amola Di da na hinama asigi hou olelei dagoi, amo na da dawa: mu.”
And let it come to pass, that the damsel to whom I shall say, Let down thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drink; and she shall say, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: let the same be she that thou hast appointed for thy servant Isaac; and thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed kindness unto my master.
15 E da sia: ne gadolaloba, Lebega da misini, ea hano ganagu amo gisa manebe ba: i. Lebega da Bediuele ea idiwi, amola Bediuele ea: me da A: ibalaha: me ola Na: iho amo idua, ea dio amo Miliga.
And it came to pass, before he had done speaking, that, behold, Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, with her pitcher upon her shoulder.
16 Lebega ea ba: su da noga: idafa ba: i. E da a: fini galu. Dunu afae da e amola gilisili hame golai. E da hano nasua asili, ea ganagu nabalesili, bu heda: i.
And the damsel was very fair to look upon, a virgin, neither had any man known her: and she went down to the well, and filled her pitcher, and came up.
17 A: ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu da hedolo ema misini, amane sia: i, “Na da dia ganagu amoga hano fonobahadi manu da defeala: ?”
And the servant ran to meet her, and said, Let me, I pray thee, drink a little water of thy pitcher.
18 A: fini da amane sia: i, “Defea! Ada! Di moma!” Amalalu, e da ganagu ligisili, ea lobo ganodini gaguli, ema hano i.
And she said, Drink, my master: and she hasted, and let down her pitcher upon her hand, and gave him drink.
19 Hano dili ianu, e amane sia: i, “Na da dia ga: mele moma: ne amola hano dili imunu. Ilia sadi dagoiba: le fawane yolesimu.”
And when she had done giving him drink, she said, I will draw water for thy camels also, until they have done drinking.
20 Amaiba: le, e da ea ganagu amo hano ga: mele hano nasu ganodini sogasalili, hano uli dogoi amoga hehenane, hano eno dili, ga: mele sadi dagoiba: le yolesi.
And she hasted, and emptied her pitcher into the trough, and ran again unto the well to draw water, and drew for all his camels.
21 A: ibalaha: me hawa: hamosu dunu da ouiya: le esalu. Gode da ea ahoabe bai amo noga: le fidi amo dawa: musa: gini, E da amo a: fini ea hou ha: giwane ba: lalu.
And the man wondering at her held his peace, to wit whether YHWH had made his journey prosperous or not.
22 Ga: mele da hano na dagoloba, A:ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu da mi bione gala: su gouliga hamoi amo Lebega ea mi ga: i, amola gouli lobofasele fei. Mi bione gala: su ea dioi defei da gala: me biyale agoane amola fesuale fesu da gala: me 100agoane.
And it came to pass, as the camels had done drinking, that the man took a golden earring of half a shekel weight, and two bracelets for her hands of ten shekels weight of gold;
23 Amalalu, A:ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu da ema amane adole ba: i, “Di da nowa ea manola: ? Nama adoma! Dia ada diasu amo ganodini nini golama: ne sogebi ganabela: ?
And said, Whose daughter art thou? tell me, I pray thee: is there room in thy father's house for us to lodge in?
24 A: fini da bu adole i, “Na da Bediuele ea mano. Bediuele da Na: iho amola idua Miliga ela mano.”
And she said unto him, I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, which she bare unto Nahor.
25 Amalalu, e bu adole i, “Ninia diasua da gisi ha: i manu bagohame gala. Amola dilia gasia golama: ne, sogebi bagade gala.
She said moreover unto him, We have both straw and provender enough, and room to lodge in.
26 Amalalu, hawa: hamosu dunu e da beguduli, Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadoi.
And the man bowed down his head, and worshipped YHWH.
27 E amane sia: i, “Na da Hina Gode dio nodone gaguia gadosa. Na hina A: ibalaha: me, amo ea Gode da ema asigi hou hame yolesi. Be Hina Gode da na bisili asili, nama na hina ea fi dunu ilia diasu noga: le olelei.
And he said, Blessed be YHWH Elohim of my master Abraham, who hath not left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth: I being in the way, YHWH led me to the house of my master's brethren.
28 Lebega da hehenane, ea ame fi ilima amo hou olelei.
And the damsel ran, and told them of her mother's house these things.
29 Lebega ea ola amo ea dio La: iba: ne esalu. La: iba: ne da hehenane, hano nasu amoga doaga: musa: asi.
And Rebekah had a brother, and his name was Laban: and Laban ran out unto the man, unto the well.
30 E da Lebega lai liligi, amo mi bione ga: i amola gouli lobofasele fei ba: i dagoi. E da Lebega ea sia: nabi dagoi. Amabeba: le, e da asili, A:ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu ea ga: mele amo hano nasu gadenene lelebe ba: i.
And it came to pass, when he saw the earring and bracelets upon his sister's hands, and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister, saying, Thus spake the man unto me; that he came unto the man; and, behold, he stood by the camels at the well.
31 E amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da dima hahawane dogolegele ilegesa. Misa! Di da abuli gadili lela. Na da di golama: ne amola ga: mele golama: ne diasu hahamoi dagoi.”
And he said, Come in, thou blessed of YHWH; wherefore standest thou without? for I have prepared the house, and room for the camels.
32 Amaiba: le, dunu da diasuga asi. La: iba: ne da ga: mele amoga liligi lale ligisi. E da gisi amola ha: i manu ga: mele ilima gaguli misi, amola A: ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu amola ea fidisu dunu ilia emo dodofema: ne, hano dili i.
And the man came into the house: and he ungirded his camels, and gave straw and provender for the camels, and water to wash his feet, and the men's feet that were with him.
33 Amalalu, amo dunu ha: i moma: ne, ilia da ha: i manu gaguli misi. Be e amane sia: i, Na da na sia: ne iasu sia: i dagoiba: le fawane, ha: i manu. La: iba: ne da amane sia: i, “Defea! Ninima adoma!”
And there was set meat before him to eat: but he said, I will not eat, until I have told mine errand. And he said, Speak on.
34 Amaiba: le, e amane sia: i, “Na da A: ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu.
And he said, I am Abraham's servant.
35 Hina Gode da na hina amo hahawane dogolegelewane bagade fidibiba: le, e da wali bagade gagui dunu esala. Gode da ema sibi, bulamagau, silifa, gouli, hawa: hamosu dunu, hawa: hamosu uda, ga: mele, amola dougi ema i dagoi.
And YHWH hath blessed my master greatly; and he is become great: and he hath given him flocks, and herds, and silver, and gold, and menservants, and maidservants, and camels, and asses.
36 Ea uda Sela da da: i hamoi be ema dunu mano da lalelegei. Na hina da amo manoma ea gagui huluane i dagoi.
And Sarah my master's wife bare a son to my master when she was old: and unto him hath he given all that he hath.
37 Na hina da logeiba: le, na da Gode Ea Dioba: le gasa bagade ilegele sia: i. Na hina da amane sia: i, “Na da Ga: ina: ne fi amo ganodini esala. Be amoga nagofe uda lama: ne, uda mae sia: sima.
And my master made me swear, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife to my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I dwell:
38 Be na ada ea sosogo fi amola na fidafa ilima nagofe ea uda lala masa.’
But thou shalt go unto my father's house, and to my kindred, and take a wife unto my son.
39 Amalalu, na da na hinama amane adole ba: i, “Be amo uda da na amola bu sigi misunu hihi galea, na adi hamoma: bela: ?”
And I said unto my master, Peradventure the woman will not follow me.
40 E da nama bu adole i, ‘Hina Godedafa, amo Ea sia: na eso huluane naba, E di fidima: ne Ea a: igele dunu asunasimu. Di na fidafa, amola na ada ea sosogo fi amoga uda na mano ea lama: ne sia: sima.
And he said unto me, YHWH, before whom I walk, will send his angel with thee, and prosper thy way; and thou shalt take a wife for my son of my kindred, and of my father's house:
41 Dia gasa bagade sia: amo mae hamoma: ne, logo afadafa fawane gala. Di da na fi ilima asili amola ilia amo uda dima imunu higasea, defea, yolema.’
Then shalt thou be clear from this my oath, when thou comest to my kindred; and if they give not thee one, thou shalt be clear from my oath.
42 Na da wali eso hano nasu uli dogoi amoga doaga: loba, na amane sia: ne gadoi, ‘Hina Gode! Na hina A: ibalaha: me ea Gode! Dia na wali hou hamobe fidima!
And I came this day unto the well, and said, O YHWH, Elohim of my master Abraham, if now thou do prosper my way which I go;
43 Na da hano nasu uli dogoiga esala. A: fini afae hano dimusa: masea, e da nama ea ganagu, hano dili ima: ne na da adole ba: mu.
Behold, I stand by the well of water; and it shall come to pass, that when the virgin cometh forth to draw water, and I say to her, Give me, I pray thee, a little water of thy pitcher to drink;
44 E da amo iasea amola baligili na ga: mele ilima hano imunusa: sia: sea, amo da na hina ea mano lama: ne a: fini Di ilegei dagoi, na dawa: mu.’
And she say to me, Both drink thou, and I will also draw for thy camels: let the same be the woman whom YHWH hath appointed out for my master's son.
45 Na sia: ne gadoi da hame dagoloba, Lebega da hano ganagu gisa manebe ba: i. E hano nasu amoga hano dimusa: sa: i. Na ema amane sia: i, ‘Na da dima edegesa. Hano nama ima.’
And before I had done speaking in mine heart, behold, Rebekah came forth with her pitcher on her shoulder; and she went down unto the well, and drew water: and I said unto her, Let me drink, I pray thee.
46 E hedolo ea ganagu gisi, amo osoba ligisili, amane sia: i, ‘Defea! Moma! Na da dia ga: mele amola ilima hano dili imunu.’ Amalalu, na hano mai, amola e da ga: mele ilima hano i.
And she made haste, and let down her pitcher from her shoulder, and said, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: so I drank, and she made the camels drink also.
47 Na ema amane adole ba: i, ‘Dia ada nowala: ?’ E bu adole i, ‘Na ada da Bediuele amo Na: iho amola Miliga ela mano.’ Amalalu, na da ea mi amoga mi bione gala: su amola ea lobofasele fei.
And I asked her, and said, Whose daughter art thou? And she said, The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor's son, whom Milcah bare unto him: and I put the earring upon her face, and the bracelets upon her hands.
48 Na muguni bugili Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadoi. Na da Hina Godedafa, na hina A: ibalaha: me ea Gode, amo Ea Dio nodone gaguia gadoi. E da moloiwane na hina ea fi amoga doaga: musa: logo olelei dagoiba: le amola na hina ea mano uda lamu amo noga: le oleleiba: le, na nodoi.
And I bowed down my head, and worshipped YHWH, and blessed YHWH Elohim of my master Abraham, which had led me in the right way to take my master's brother's daughter unto his son.
49 Defea! Dilia da moloiwane na hina ea hanai hamomusa: dawa: i galea, nama adoma. Be higa: i galea, amo nama adoma. Amasea, na da fa: no hamomu, amo na da sia: mu.
And now if ye will deal kindly and truly with my master, tell me: and if not, tell me; that I may turn to the right hand, or to the left.
50 La: iba: ne amola Bediuele da bu adole i, “Amo hou Hina Gode Hi hamoiba: le, ninia sia: mu da hamedei.
Then Laban and Bethuel answered and said, The thing proceedeth from YHWH: we cannot speak unto thee bad or good.
51 Lebega da amogai lela. Lale masa. Hina Godedafa Ea sia: defele, e da dia hina ea mano ema fimu da defea.”
Behold, Rebekah is before thee, take her, and go, and let her be thy master's son's wife, as YHWH hath spoken.
52 A: ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu da amo sia: nabaloba, beguduli, Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadoi.
And it came to pass, that, when Abraham's servant heard their words, he worshipped YHWH, bowing himself to the earth.
53 Amalalu, ea liligi amoga e da abula, silifa, gouli amola muni bagade igi lale, Lebegama i. E da muni bagade liligi Lebega ea ola amola ea: mema i.
And the servant brought forth jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment, and gave them to Rebekah: he gave also to her brother and to her mother precious things.
54 Amalalu, A:ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu amola ea fidisu dunu da ha: i amola hano nanu golai. Hahabe, nedigili, wa: legadole, e amane sia: i, “Dilia na hina ema na bu asunasima!”
And they did eat and drink, he and the men that were with him, and tarried all night; and they rose up in the morning, and he said, Send me away unto my master.
55 Be Lebega ea ola amola ea: me da amane sia: i, “A: fini da hi afae o eso nabuane gala amo gui esalumu da defea. Amolalu masunu da defea.”
And her brother and her mother said, Let the damsel abide with us a few days, at the least ten; after that she shall go.
56 Be e da bu adole i, “Ninia ouesalumu mae sia: ma. Bai Hina Gode da na sofe ahoasu amola hamobe noga: le didili fidi. Na da na hina ema bu masunu da defea.”
And he said unto them, Hinder me not, seeing YHWH hath prospered my way; send me away that I may go to my master.
57 Ilia da bu adole i, “Ninia da a: fini misa: ne sia: mu. Ea sia: nabimu da defea.”
And they said, We will call the damsel, and inquire at her mouth.
58 Amaiba: le, ilia da Lebega misa: ne sia: i. Ilia da ema amane adole ba: i, “Di da amo dunu sigi masa: bela: ?” E bu adole i, “Ma!”
And they called Rebekah, and said unto her, Wilt thou go with this man? And she said, I will go.
59 Amabeba: le, ilia da Lebega amola ea hawa: hamosu uda da: i, amo A: ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu, amola ea fidisu dunu amo sigi masa: ne sia: i.
And they sent away Rebekah their sister, and her nurse, and Abraham's servant, and his men.
60 Amola ilia da Lebegama amo hahawane dogolegele sia: su sia: i, “Di, ninia dalusi, dunu fi osea: idafa ilima ame esaloma! Dima lalelegei fi da ilima ha lai dunu, ilima osa: le heda: mu da defea!”
And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto her, Thou art our sister, be thou the mother of thousands of millions, and let thy seed possess the gate of those which hate them.
61 Amalalu, Lebega amola ea a: fini fidisu huluane da liligi momagele, ga: mele da: iya fila heda: le, A:ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu sigi asi. A: ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu da Lebega oule asi.
And Rebekah arose, and her damsels, and they rode upon the camels, and followed the man: and the servant took Rebekah, and went his way.
62 Aisage da dunu hame esalebe hafoga: i soge amo ea dio da “Gode Esala da na Ba: lala amo Ea Hano Nasu Uli Dogoi.” amogai misini esalebe ba: i. Amo da Ga: ina: ne soge ga (south) la: idi dialu.
And Isaac came from the way of the well Lahai-roi; for he dwelt in the south country.
63 E da baloga amo odagiaba sogega ahoanoba, ga: mele manebe ba: i.
And Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the eventide: and he lifted up his eyes, and saw, and, behold, the camels were coming.
64 Lebega da Aisage ba: loba, ga: mele amoga esalu, gudu aligila sa: i.
And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac, she lighted off the camel.
65 E da A: ibalaha: me hawa: hamosu dunu ema amane adole ba: i, “Amo dunu ninima manebe da nowala: ?” A: ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu da bu adole i, “E da na hina.” Amaiba: le, Lebega da ea dialuma abula lale, ea odagi dedeboi.
For she had said unto the servant, What man is this that walketh in the field to meet us? And the servant had said, It is my master: therefore she took a vail, and covered herself.
66 Amalalu, hawa: hamosu dunu da ea hamoi huluane Aisagema olelei.
And the servant told Isaac all things that he had done.
67 Amalalu, Aisage da Lebega lale, abula diasu amo ea: me Sela musa: esalu amoga oule misi. Aisage da Lebegama bagade asigi galu. Ea: me Sela da bogoi dagoiba: le e da da: i dioi galu. Be Lebega laiba: le ea dogo denesi.
And Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah's tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife; and he loved her: and Isaac was comforted after his mother's death.
