1 Mosebog 21
1 Og Herren besøgte Sara, ligesom han havde sagt, og Herren gjorde ved Sara, efter som han havde talet.
And the Lord visited Sarrha, as he said, and the Lord did to Sarrha, as he spoke.
2 Og Sara undfik og fødte Abraham en Søn i hans Alderdom paa den bestemte Tid, som Gud havde sagt ham.
And she conceived and bore to Abraam a son in old age, at the set time according as the Lord spoke to him.
3 Og Abraham kaldte sin Søns Navn, som var født ham, som Sara havde født ham, Isak.
And Abraam called the name of his son that was born to him, whom Sarrha bore to him, Isaac.
4 Og Abraham omskar Isak sin Søn, der han var otte Dage gammel, ligesom Gud havde befalet ham.
And Abraam circumcised Isaac on the eighth day, as God commanded him.
5 Og Abraham var hundrede Aar gammel, der hans Søn Isak blev født ham.
And Abraam was a hundred years old when Isaac his son was born to him.
6 Da sagde Sara: Gud har gjort mig til Latter; hver den, som hører dette, maa le ad mig.
And Sarrha said, The Lord has made laughter for me, for whoever shall hear shall rejoice with me.
7 Og hun sagde: Hvo skulde have sagt til Abraham: Sara har givet Børn at die; thi jeg har født en Søn i hans Alderdom.
And she said, Who shall say to Abraam that Sarrha suckles a child? for I have born a child in my old age.
8 Og Barnet vokste op og blev afvant, og Abraham gjorde et stort Gæstebud den Dag, Isak blev afvant.
And the child grew and was weaned, and Abraam made a great feast the day that his son Isaac was weaned.
9 Og Sara saa Ægypterinden Hagars Søn, som hun havde født Abraham, at han spottede.
And Sarrha having seen the son of Agar the Egyptian who was born to Abraam, sporting with Isaac her son,
10 Og hun sagde til Abraham: Uddriv denne Tjenestekvinde og hendes Søn; thi denne Tjenestekvindes Søn skal ikke arve med min Søn, med Isak.
then she said to Abraam, Cast out this bondwoman and her son, for the son of this bondwoman shall not inherit with my son Isaac.
11 Og det Ord behagede Abraham saare ilde for hans Søns Skyld.
But the word appeared very hard before Abraam concerning his son.
12 Men Gud sagde til Abraham: Lad det ikke behage dig ilde for Drengen og for din Tjenestekvinde; i hvad som helst Sara siger dig, lyd hendes Røst; thi udi Isak skal Sæden kaldes dig.
But God said to Abraam, Let it not be hard before you concerning the child, and concerning the bondwoman; in all things whatever Sarrha shall say to you, hear her voice, for in Isaac shall your seed be called.
13 Og jeg vil ogsaa gøre Tjenestekvindens Søn til et Folk, fordi han er din Sæd.
And moreover I will make the son of this bondwoman a great nation, because he is your seed.
14 Da stod Abraham aarle op om Morgenen og tog Brød og en Flaske Vand og gav Hagar og lagde det paa hendes Skuldre og flyede hende Drengen og lod hende fare; da drog hun hen og for vild i Beersaba Ørken.
And Abraam rose up in the morning and took loaves and a skin of water, and gave [them] to Agar, and he put the child on her shoulder, and sent her away, and she having departed wandered in the wilderness near the well of the oath.
15 Der Vandet var drukket af Flasken, da kastede hun Drengen under en af Buskene.
And the water failed out of the skin, and she cast the child under a fir tree.
16 Og hun gik og satte sig tværs overfor, efter at hun var gaaet et Pileskud derfra; thi hun sagde: Jeg vil ikke se paa Drengens Død. Saa satte hun sig tværs overfor og opløftede sin Røst og græd.
And she departed and sat down opposite him at a distance, as it were a bow-shot, for she said, Surely I can’t see the death of my child: and she sat opposite him, and the child cried aloud and wept.
17 Da hørte Gud Drengens Røst, og Guds Engel raabte til Hagar af Himmelen og sagde til hende: Hvad fattes dig, Hagar? frygt intet; thi Gud har hørt Drengens Røst, der hvor han er.
And God heard the voice of the child from the place where he was, and an angel of God called Agar out of heaven, and said to her, What is it, Agar? fear not, for God has heard the voice of the child from the place where he is.
18 Staa op, opløft Drengen og hold fast paa ham med din Haand; thi jeg vil gøre ham til et stort Folk.
Rise up, and take the child, and hold him in your hand, for I will make him a great nation.
19 Og Gud oplod hendes Øjne, at hun saa en Vandbrønd, saa gik hun og fyldte Flasken med Vand og gav Drengen at drikke.
And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of springing water; and she went and filled the skin with water, and gave the child drink.
20 Og Gud var med Drengen, og han vokste op og boede i Ørken og blev en Bueskytte.
And God was with the child, and he grew and lived in the wilderness, and became an archer.
21 Og han boede i den Ørken Paran, og hans Moder tog ham en Hustru af Ægyptens Land.
And he lived in the wilderness, and his mother took him a wife out of Pharan of Egypt.
22 Og det skete paa den samme Tid, da talede Abimelek og Pikol, hans Stridshøvedsmand, til Abraham og sagde: Gud er med dig i alt det, du gør.
And it came to pass at that time that Abimelech spoke, and Ochozath his friend, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, to Abraam, saying, God is with you in all things, whatever you may do.
23 Saa sværg mig nu her ved Gud, at du ikke vil handle svigefuldt imod mig og min Søn og min Sønnesøn; efter den Miskundhed, som jeg har gjort mod dig, skal du gøre mod mig og mod Landet, i hvilket du har været fremmed.
Now therefore swear to me by God that you will not injure me, nor my seed, nor my name, but according to the righteousness which I have performed with you you shall deal with me, and with the land in which you have sojourned.
24 Da sagde Abraham: jeg vil sværge.
And Abraam said, I will swear.
25 Og Abraham straffede Abimelek for den Vandbrønds Skyld, som Abimeleks Tjenere havde borttaget med Vold.
And Abraam reproved Abimelech because of the wells of water, which the servants of Abimelech took away.
26 Da svarede Abimelek: Jeg vidste ikke, hvem der gjorde dette, og du har heller ikke givet mig det til Kende, og jeg har heller ikke hørt det førend i Dag.
And Abimelech said to him, I know not who has done this thing to you, neither did you tell it me, neither heard I it but only today.
27 Da tog Abraham Faar og Kvæg og gav Abimelek, og de gjorde begge et Forbund.
And Abraam took sheep and calves, and gave them to Abimelech, and both made a covenant.
28 Og Abraham stillede syv Lam af Hjorden for sig selv.
And Abraam set seven ewe-lambs by themselves.
29 Da sagde Abimelek til Abraham: Hvad skulle, disse syv Lam her, som du stillede for sig selv?
And Abimelech said to Abraam, What are these seven ewe-lambs which you have set alone?
30 Og han svarede: Fordi du skal tage syv Lam af min Haand; og det skal være mig til et Vidnesbyrd, at jeg har gravet denne Brønd.
And Abraam said, You shall receive the seven ewe-lambs of me, that they may be for me as a witness, that I dug this well.
31 Derfor kaldte han dette Sted Beersaba; thi der svore de begge.
Therefore he named the name of that place, The Well of the Oath, for there they both swore.
32 Og de gjorde Forbund i Beersaba; da stod Abimelek op og Pikol, hans Stridshøvedsmand, og droge igen til Filisternes Land.
And they made a covenant at the well of the oath. And there rose up Abimelech, Ochozath his friend, and Phichol the commander-in-chief of his army, and they returned to the land of the Phylistines.
33 Og han plantede en Lund i Beersaba og paakaldte der Herrens, den evige Guds, Navn.
And Abraam planted a field at the well of the oath, and called there on the name of the Lord, the everlasting God.
34 Og Abraham var fremmed i Filisternes Land en lang Tid.
And Abraam sojourned in the land of the Phylistines many days.
