Mui 26
1 Soge huluane da ha: i bagade eno ba: i. Musa: , A: ibalaha: me ea esoga ha: i bagade ba: i, be amo da eno. Aisage da Abimelege amo Filisidini hina bagade Gila moilai bai bagade ganodini esalu, ema asi.
There was a famine in the country—not the one that happened before in Abraham's time, but a later one. So Isaac moved to Gerar in the territory of Abimelech, king of the Philistines.
2 Hina Gode da Aisagema misini, amane sia: i, “Idibidi amoga mae masa. Be na olelemu soge amo ganodini esaloma.
The Lord appeared to Isaac and told him, “Don't go to Egypt—live in the country that I tell you to.
3 Amo soge ganodini fonobahadi ouesaloma. Amalalu, Na amola gilisili esalumu amola dima hahawane dogolegele fidimu. Bai Na da amo soge huluane Na da dima amola dia fa: no lalelegemu fi ilima imunu. Na da gousa: su dia ada A: ibalaha: mema hamoi, amo Na da didili hamomu.
Stay here in this country. I will be with you and I will bless you, because I'm going to give you and your descendants all these lands. I will keep the solemn promise that I swore to Abraham your father.
4 Na da digaga fi dunu amo gasumuni ilia idi defele hamomu. Amo soge huluane ilima imunu. Amola ilia houba: le, osobo bagade fifi asi gala huluane da hahawane dogolegele hou ba: mu.
I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars of heaven and I will give them all these lands. All the nations of the earth will be blessed by your descendants,
5 Bai A: ibalaha: me da Na sia: nabasu. E da Na hanai amola Na Sema amola Na hamoma: ne sia: i huluane mae fili, nabasu hou hamosu.
because Abraham did what I told him, and kept my requirements, my commands, my regulations, and my laws.”
6 Amaiba: le, Aisage da Gila moilai bai bagade ganodini esalu.
So Isaac stayed in Gerar.
7 Amo soge dunu da ea uda ea hou ema adole ba: loba, e da amane sia: i, “E da na dalusi.” E da, “Amo da na uda” sia: musa: bagade beda: i galu. Bai e agoane dawa: i, “Amo soge dunu da Lebega da na uda dawa: sea, na fane legemu. Bai e da noga: iwane ba: sa.”
When the men there asked him about his wife, he told them, “She's my sister,” because he was afraid. He said to himself, “If I say she's my wife, the men here will kill me to get Rebekah, because she's so beautiful.”
8 Aisage amogai eso bagohame esaloba, Filisidini hina bagade dunu Abimelege, da ea fo misa: ne agenesi amoga gududili ba: loba, Aisage ea uda Lebega amo nonogonanebe ba: i.
But later on, after he'd been there a while, Abimelech, king of the Philistines, happened to look out the window and saw Isaac lovingly fondling his wife Rebekah.
9 Amaiba: le, Abimelege da Aisagema misa: ne sia: i. E da amane sia: i, “Amo da dia uda. Di da abuli, ‘amo da na dalusi’ sia: bela: ?” Aisage da ema bu adole i, “Na da enoga medosa: besa: le, agoane hamoi.”
Abimelech sent for Isaac and complained. “From what I saw she's clearly your wife!” he said. “Why on earth did you say, ‘She's my sister’?” “Because I thought I'd be killed because of her,” Isaac replied.
10 Amalalu, Abimelege da amane sia: i, “Di da ninima adi hamobela: ? Ninia fi dunu afae da ema gilisili golai ganiaba, ninia huluane da wadela: i dunu fi ba: la: loba.”
“Why would you do this to us?” Abimelech asked. “One of the men here might have slept with your wife, and you would have made us all guilty!”
11 Amaiba: le, Abimelege da ea fi dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Nowa da amo dunu o ea uda wadela: sea, amo dunu ninia fane legemu.”
Abimelech issued orders to all the people, warning them, “Anyone who touches this man or his wife will be executed.”
12 Aisage da amo soge ganodini, ha: i manu bugi. Hina Gode da hahawane dogolegelewane fidibiba: le, amo bugi da ha: i manu bagade legei.
Isaac sowed grain that year, and the Lord blessed him with a harvest that was a hundred times what he planted.
13 E da bagade gagui dunu agoane ba: i. Ea gagui da asigilabeba: le, ea gagui da bagadedafa ba: i.
He became a rich man, and his wealth steadily increased until he was very rich.
14 E sibi, goudi amola bulamagau bagohame gaguiba: le, Filisidini dunu da e mudale ba: i.
He owned many flocks of sheep and herds of cattle, as well as many slaves. He had so much that the Philistines became jealous of him.
15 Amaiba: le, Filisidini dunu da hano uli dogoi huluane amo ea ada hawa: hamosu dunu da A: ibalaha: me ea esoga dogoi, amo huluane ga: si. Ilia huluane osoboga nabasu.
So the Philistines used dirt to block up all the wells his father Abraham's servants had dug.
16 Amalalu, Abimelege da Aisagema amane sia: i, “Di nini yolesili masa! Bai di da gasa bagade hamoi dagoi.”
Then Abimelech told Isaac, “You have to leave our country, because you've become much too powerful for us.”
17 Amaiba: le, Aisage da amo soge yolesili, Gila Fago amoga esalu.
So Isaac moved away and set up his tents in the Gerar Valley where he settled down.
18 Amoga hano uli dogoi amo A: ibalaha: me ea esoga dogoi be Filisidini dunu da ga: i, amo Aisage bu doasi. Amola dio A: ibalaha: me da amo uli dogoi amoma asuli, amo dio Aisage bu asuli.
He unblocked the wells that had been dug in his father Abraham's time—the ones the Philistines had blocked after the death of Abraham. He gave them the same names his father had.
19 Aisage da umi amo ganodini dogolalu, noga: iwane hano ba: i.
Isaac's servants also dug a new well in the valley and found spring water.
20 Be Gila sibi ouligisu dunu da Aisage ea sibi ouligisu dunu ilima sia: ga gegei. Ilia amane sia: i, “Amo hano da ninia:” Amaiba: le, e da amo hanoma “Sia: ga Gegesu” dio asuli.
But the herdsmen from Gerar argued with Isaac's herdsmen, claiming, “That's our water!” So Isaac named the well, “Argument,” because they argued with him.
21 Amalalu ilia da hano uli dou eno dogoi. Be ilia amoga eno sia: ga gegei. Amaiba: le, e da amo hanoma Sidina (Ha Lai) dio asuli.
He had another well dug, and they argued over that one too. He named the well, “Opposition.”
22 Bu asili, e da hano uli eno dogoi. Amoga ilia da hame sia: ga gegei. Amaiba: le, e da amo hano uli dogoima Lihoubode (Hahawane Halegale Lala) dio asuli. E amane sia: i, “Wali Hina Gode da sogebi defele ninima ia dagoiba: le, ninia da hahawane soge ganodini udigili lala.”
So they moved on from there and he had another well dug. This time there was no argument so he named the well, “Freedom,” saying, “Now the Lord has given us freedom to expand and be successful in this land.”
23 Amoga asili, e da Biasiba amoga asi.
From there he moved on to Beersheba.
24 Amo gasia, Hina Gode da ema misini amane sia: i, “Na da dia ada A: ibalaha: me amo ea Gode esala. Mae beda: ma! Na da di amola gilisili lala. Na da Na hawa: hamosu dunu A: ibalaha: mema hahawane sia: beba: le, Na dima hahawane dogolegele hamomu amola digaga lalelegemu fi amo bagade hamomu.”
That night the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am the God of Abraham your father. Don't be afraid, for I am with you. I will bless you and give you many descendants for the sake of my servant Abraham.”
25 Aisage da amo sogega oloda hamone, Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadoi. E amoga abula diasu gagui, amola ea hawa: hamosu dunu da hano uli dogoi.
Isaac built an altar and worshiped the Lord. He also set up his tent, and his servants dug a well there.
26 Abimelege, ea fidisu dunu Ahusa: de amola ea dadi gagui dunu hina amo Fa: igole da Gila moilai bai bagade yolesili, Aisagema doaga: i.
Sometime later Abimelech came from Gerar to see Isaac, along with Ahuzzath his advisor, and Phicol the commander of his army.
27 Amalalu, Aisage ema amane adole ba: i, “Di da musa: nama ha laiba: le, dia soge fisili masa: ne nama sia: i dagoi. Amaiba: le, di abuliba: le nama waha misi?”
“Why have you come to see me?” Isaac asked them. “Previously you hated me and told me to leave!”
28 Ilia bu adole i, “Wali ninia dawa: ! Hina Gode da dia fidisu esala. Ninia wali gousa: sudafa hamomu da defea.
“Now we realize that the Lord is with you,” they replied. “So we agreed that we should make a sworn agreement with you.
29 Di ninima se maedafa ima: ne sia: ma. Ninia da dima se hame i, amo defele di da nini fidimu da defea. Ninia da dima asigi hou hamonanu, dia ga masa: ne logo doasi dagoi. Amola wali Hina Gode da dima hahawane dogolegele ilegei dagoi.”
You'll promise not to harm us in the same way we've never hurt you. You'll agree that we've always treated you well, and when we asked you to leave we did so kindly. Now look at how the Lord is blessing you!”
30 Aisage da ili moma: ne, lolo nasu hamoi. Ilia huluane ha: i amola waini hano mai dagoi.
So Isaac had a special meal prepared to celebrate the agreement. They ate and drank,
31 Aya hahabedafa, Aisage amola Filisidini dunu da gousa: su hamoi. Aisage da ilima “asigibio” sia: nanu, ilia olofole agoane afafai.
and got up early in the morning and they each swore oaths to one other. Then Isaac sent them on their way, and they left in peace.
32 Amo esoga, Aisage ea hawa: hamosu dunu da ema misini, ilia da hano uli dogoi amo olelei. Ilia da amane sia: i, “Ninia hano ba: i dagoi.”
It was that very day when Isaac's servants who'd been digging a well came and told him, “We've found water!”
33 E da amo hano Siba (“hou ilegele sia:” o eno dawaloma: ne da “fesuale hano”). Biasiba da amoga ea dio lai dagoi.
So Isaac named the well, “Oath,” and that's why the name of the town is “Well of the Oath” (Beersheba) to this day.
34 Iso da ode 40 lai dagoi. Amalalu, e da Hidaide a: fini aduna lai dagoi. Afae ea dio da Yudide amo Bieli ea mano. Eno da Basemade amo Ilone ea mano.
When Esau was 40, he married Judith, daughter of Beeri the Hittite, as well as Basemath, daughter of Elon the Hittite.
35 Aisage amola Lebega da amo hou ba: beba: le, se bagade nabasu.
They caused Isaac and Rebekah a great deal of grief.
