Genesis 21
1 And Jehovah visited Sarah as he had said, and Jehovah did to Sarah as he had spoken.
Og Herren besøgte Sara, ligesom han havde sagt, og Herren gjorde ved Sara, efter som han havde talet.
2 And Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
Og Sara undfik og fødte Abraham en Søn i hans Alderdom paa den bestemte Tid, som Gud havde sagt ham.
3 And Abraham called the name of his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.
Og Abraham kaldte sin Søns Navn, som var født ham, som Sara havde født ham, Isak.
4 And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.
Og Abraham omskar Isak sin Søn, der han var otte Dage gammel, ligesom Gud havde befalet ham.
5 And Abraham was a hundred years old, when his son Isaac was born to him.
Og Abraham var hundrede Aar gammel, der hans Søn Isak blev født ham.
6 And Sarah said, God has made me to laugh. Everyone who hears will laugh with me.
Da sagde Sara: Gud har gjort mig til Latter; hver den, som hører dette, maa le ad mig.
7 And she said, Who would have said to Abraham, that Sarah should give sons suck? For I have borne him a son in his old age.
Og hun sagde: Hvo skulde have sagt til Abraham: Sara har givet Børn at die; thi jeg har født en Søn i hans Alderdom.
8 And the child grew, and was weaned. And Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned.
Og Barnet vokste op og blev afvant, og Abraham gjorde et stort Gæstebud den Dag, Isak blev afvant.
9 And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking.
Og Sara saa Ægypterinden Hagars Søn, som hun havde født Abraham, at han spottede.
10 Therefore she said to Abraham, Cast out this handmaid and her son. For the son of this handmaid shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac.
Og hun sagde til Abraham: Uddriv denne Tjenestekvinde og hendes Søn; thi denne Tjenestekvindes Søn skal ikke arve med min Søn, med Isak.
11 And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight on account of his son.
Og det Ord behagede Abraham saare ilde for hans Søns Skyld.
12 And God said to Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad, and because of thy handmaid. In all that Sarah says to thee, hearken to her voice. For in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
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.
13 And also I will make a nation of the son of the handmaid, because he is thy seed.
Og jeg vil ogsaa gøre Tjenestekvindens Søn til et Folk, fordi han er din Sæd.
14 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread and a bottle of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and the child, and sent her away. And she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
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.
15 And the water in the bottle was spent, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.
Der Vandet var drukket af Flasken, da kastede hun Drengen under en af Buskene.
16 And she went, and sat herself down opposite him a good way off, as it were a bowshot. For she said, Let me not look upon the death of the child. And she sat opposite him, and lifted up her voice, and wept.
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.
17 And God heard the voice of the lad. And the agent of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said to her, What troubles thee, Hagar? Fear not, for God has heard the voice of the lad where he is.
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.
18 Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thy hand, for I will make him a great nation.
Staa op, opløft Drengen og hold fast paa ham med din Haand; thi jeg vil gøre ham til et stort Folk.
19 And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. And she went, and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad drink.
Og Gud oplod hendes Øjne, at hun saa en Vandbrønd, saa gik hun og fyldte Flasken med Vand og gav Drengen at drikke.
20 And God was with the lad, and he grew. And he dwelt in the wilderness, and became, as he grew up, an archer.
Og Gud var med Drengen, og han vokste op og boede i Ørken og blev en Bueskytte.
21 And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran. And his mother took for him a wife out of the land of Egypt.
Og han boede i den Ørken Paran, og hans Moder tog ham en Hustru af Ægyptens Land.
22 And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, God is with thee in all that thou do.
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.
23 Now therefore swear to me here by God that thou will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son. But according to the kindness that I have done to thee, thou shall do to me, and to the land in which thou have sojourned.
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.
24 And Abraham said, I will swear.
Da sagde Abraham: jeg vil sværge.
25 And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of the well of water which Abimelech's servants had taken away violently.
Og Abraham straffede Abimelek for den Vandbrønds Skyld, som Abimeleks Tjenere havde borttaget med Vold.
26 And Abimelech said, I know not who has done this thing, neither did thou tell me, nor yet did I hear of it, but today.
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.
27 And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them to Abimelech. And the two made a covenant.
Da tog Abraham Faar og Kvæg og gav Abimelek, og de gjorde begge et Forbund.
28 And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
Og Abraham stillede syv Lam af Hjorden for sig selv.
29 And Abimelech said to Abraham, What do these seven ewe lambs mean which thou have set by themselves?
Da sagde Abimelek til Abraham: Hvad skulle, disse syv Lam her, som du stillede for sig selv?
30 And he said, These seven ewe lambs thou shall take from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well.
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.
31 Therefore he called that place Beersheba, because there they swore both of them.
Derfor kaldte han dette Sted Beersaba; thi der svore de begge.
32 So they made a covenant at Beersheba. And Abimelech rose up, and Phicol the captain of his army, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
Og de gjorde Forbund i Beersaba; da stod Abimelek op og Pikol, hans Stridshøvedsmand, og droge igen til Filisternes Land.
33 And Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and there called on the name of Jehovah, the Everlasting God.
Og han plantede en Lund i Beersaba og paakaldte der Herrens, den evige Guds, Navn.
34 And Abraham sojourned in the land of the Philistines many days.
Og Abraham var fremmed i Filisternes Land en lang Tid.
