Genesis 26
1 Then came a time of great need in the land, like that which had been before in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to Abimelech, king of the Philistines, at Gerar.
Te vin gen yon lòt grangou nan peyi a, pi rèd pase sa ki te tonbe sou peyi a nan tan Abraram lan. Lè sa a, Izarak ale yon kote yo rele Gera kay Abimelèk, wa moun Filisti yo.
2 And the Lord came to him in a vision and said, Do not go down to Egypt; keep in the land of which I will give you knowledge:
Izarak fè yon vizyon, li wè Seyè a parèt devan l'. Seyè a di l': -Pa desann nan peyi Lejip, rete kote m'ap di ou rete a.
3 Keep in this land, and I will be with you and give you my blessing; for to you and to your seed will I give all these lands, giving effect to the oath which I made to your father Abraham;
W'a pase kèk tan nan peyi sa a. M'ap avè ou, m'ap beni ou, paske mwen pral ba ou tout tè sa a pou ou menm ak pou tout ras ou. m'a kenbe sèman mwen te fè bay Abraram, papa ou.
4 I will make your seed like the stars of heaven in number, and will give them all these lands, and your seed will be a blessing to all the nations of the earth;
M'ap ba ou anpil anpil pitit tankou zetwal nan syèl la. M'ap ba yo tout tè sa yo. Gremesi pitit pitit ou yo, tout nasyon sou latè pral jwenn benediksyon.
5 Because Abraham gave ear to my voice and kept my words, my rules, my orders, and my laws.
tout sa, paske Abraram te tande m' lè m' te pale avè l', li te swiv tout lòd mwen yo ak tout kòmandman mwen yo. Li te fè tout sa mwen mande l', li te obeyi tout lwa mwen yo.
6 So Isaac went on living in Gerar;
Se konsa Izarak rete kote yo rele Gera a.
7 And when he was questioned by the men of the place about his wife, he said, She is my sister; fearing to say, She is my wife; for, he said, the men of the place may put me to death on account of Rebekah; because she is very beautiful.
Lè mesye ki te rete nan peyi a mande l' kisa madanm li ye pou li, li reponn yo se sè l' li ye, paske li te pè di se madanm li Rebeka te ye pou mesye yo pa t' touye l' pou yo te ka pran Rebeka ki te bèl anpil.
8 And when he had been there for some time, Abimelech, king of the Philistines, looking through a window, saw Isaac playing with Rebekah his wife.
Izarak te gen kèk tan depi l' te rete la. Yon jou, Abimelek, wa moun Filisti yo, t'ap gade nan fennèt li, li te wè Izarak ki t'ap pase men sou Rebeka, madanm li.
9 And he said to Isaac, It is clear that she is your wife: why then did you say, She is my sister? And Isaac said, For fear that I might be put to death because of her.
Lè sa a, Abimelèk voye chache Izarak. Li di l' konsa: -Gade non, monchè, se madanm ou li ye! Poukisa ou di se sè ou li ye! Izarak reponn li: -Mwen te di sa paske mwen te kwè yo ta ka touye m', si m' te di se madanm mwen li ye.
10 Then Abimelech said, What have you done to us? one of the people might well have had connection with your wife, and the sin would have been ours.
Abimelèk di l': -Kisa ou fè nou konsa? Yonn nan mesye nou yo ta ka byen rive kouche avèk madanm ou! Se ou ki ta lakòz nou fè peche sa a.
11 And Abimelech gave orders to his people that anyone touching Isaac or his wife was to be put to death.
Se konsa Abimelèk pase lòd sa a bay tout pèp la: -Si yon moun manyen nonm sa a, osinon madanm li, y'ap touye l'.
12 Now Isaac, planting seed in that land, got in the same year fruit a hundred times as much, for the blessing of the Lord was on him.
Izarak fè jaden nan peyi a. Lè lanne a bout, li rekòlte san fwa valè sa l' te plante a, paske Seyè a te beni l'.
13 And his wealth became very great, increasing more and more;
Msye te vin rich. Li t'ap fè lajan toujou, jouk li rive vin rich anpil anpil.
14 For he had great wealth of flocks and herds and great numbers of servants; so that the Philistines were full of envy.
Li te gen kantite kabrit, mouton ak bèf, ak anpil moun ki t'ap sèvi l'. Sa te fè moun Filisti yo rayi sò li.
15 Now all the water-holes, which his father's servants had made in the days of Abraham, had been stopped up with earth by the Philistines.
Se konsa yo konble tout pi domestik Abraram yo te fouye sou tan Abraram, papa Izarak. Yo plen yo tè.
16 And Abimelech said to Isaac, Go away from us, for you are stronger than we are.
Lèfini, Abimelèk di Izarak: -Pati, al fè wout ou! Ou pi grannèg pase nou.
17 So Isaac went away from there, and put up his tents in the valley of Gerar, making his living-place there.
Se konsa Izarak pati kite kote l' te ye a, li ale nan Fon Gera a. Se la li moute kay li pou l' rete.
18 And he made again the water-holes which had been made in the days of Abraham his father, and which had been stopped up by the Philistines; and he gave them the names which his father had given them.
Li fè refouye tout pi dlo yo te fouye sou tan Abraram, papa l'. Se pi sa yo moun Filisti yo te bouche apre lanmò Abraram. Izarak ba yo menm non papa l' te ba yo a.
19 Now Isaac's servants made holes in the valley, and came to a spring of flowing water.
Domestik Izarak yo te fouye ankò nan fon an. Yo te jwenn yon sous dlo k'ap ponpe.
20 But the herdmen of Gerar had a fight with Isaac's herdmen, for they said, The spring is ours: so he gave the spring the name of Esek, because there was a fight about it.
Men, gadò mouton peyi Gera yo leve yon sèl kont avèk gadò mouton Izarak yo. Yo t'ap di: -Dlo sa a, se pou nou li ye. Se konsa Izarak rele pi a Pi dezagreman paske yo te chache l' dezagreman pou dlo a.
21 Then they made another water-hole, and there was a fight about that, so he gave it the name of Sitnah.
Domestik Izarak yo fouye yon lòt pi ki te lakòz yo chache yo kont ankò. Se konsa Izarak rele pi a Pi ki fè lènmi.
22 Then he went away from there, and made another water-hole, about which there was no fighting: so he gave it the name of Rehoboth, for he said, Now the Lord has made room for us, and we will have fruit in this land.
Lè l' wè sa, li wete kò l' kote l' te ye a, li fouye yon lòt pi pou sa pa t' fè kont. Se poutèt sa li rele pi a Pi ki pa nan kont. Li di: -Koulye a Seyè a ban nou kont espas nan peyi a pou nou pa nan kont. Se atò zafè nou pral mache nan peyi a.
23 And from there he went on to Beer-sheba.
Izarak pati, li moute Bècheba.
24 That night the Lord came to him in a vision, and said, I am the God of your father Abraham: have no fear for I am with you, blessing you, and your seed will be increased because of my servant Abraham.
Menm jou sa a, nan mitan lannwit, Seyè a parèt nan yon vizyon, li di Izarak konsa: -Mwen se Bondye Abraram, papa ou. Ou pa bezwen pè anyen, paske mwen la avèk ou. M'ap beni ou, m'ap ba ou anpil pitit pitit, poutèt Abraram, sèvitè m' lan.
25 Then he made an altar there, and gave worship to the name of the Lord, and he put up his tents there, and there his servants made a water-hole.
Izarak bati yon lotèl la, li fè sèvis pou Seyè a. Li moute kay li la. Domestik li yo fouye yon lòt pi.
26 And Abimelech had come to him from Gerar, with Ahuzzath his friend and Phicol, the captain of his army.
Abimelèk soti Gera, li vin wè Izarak. Li te gen avè l' Akouzat, yon bon zanmi l', ak Pikòl, kòmandan lame li a.
27 And Isaac said to them, Why have you come to me, seeing that in your hate for me you sent me away from you?
Izarak mande yo: -Poukisa nou vin wè m' koulye a? Jan nou te rayi m' sa a jouk nou te rive mete m' deyò nan peyi nou an!
28 And they said, We saw clearly that the Lord was with you: so we said, Let there be an oath between us and you, and let us make an agreement with you;
Yo reponn li: -Koulye a nou konnen Seyè a avèk ou. Se poutèt sa nou di n'ap fè yon kontra avè ou, n'ap sèmante yonn bay lòt.
29 That you will do us no damage, even as we put no hand on you, and did you nothing but good, and sent you away in peace: and now the blessing of the Lord is on you.
W'ap sèmante ou p'ap janm fè nou anyen, menm jan nou pa t' janm fè ou anyen. W'ap sèmante nou te toujou aji byen avè ou. Nou kite ou ale san bri san kont. Koulye a, ou gen benediksyon Bondye sou ou.
30 Then he made a feast for them, and they all had food and drink.
Izarak fè gwo fèt pou yo. Yo manje, yo bwè.
31 And early in the morning they took an oath one to the other: then Isaac sent them away and they went on their way in peace.
Nan granmaten, yo leve, yo sèmante yonn bay lòt. Apre sa, moun Filisti yo di Izarak orevwa. Yo separe tankou de bon zanmi, epi y al fè wout yo.
32 And that day Isaac's servants came to him and gave him word of the water-hole which they had made, and said to him, We have come to water.
Menm jou sa a, domestik Izarak yo vin ba l' nouvèl pi yo t'ap fouye a. Yo di l': -Nou jwenn dlo.
33 And he gave it the name of Shibah: so the name of that town is Beer-sheba to this day.
Izarak rele pi a Chibeya. Se poutèt sa, jouk jòdi a, yo rele lavil la Bècheba.
34 And when Esau was forty years old, he took as his wives Judith, the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Basemath, the daughter of Elon the Hittite:
Ezaou te gen karantan lè l' marye ak Jidit, pitit fi Beri, yon moun Et. Li te gen yon lòt madanm tout yo te rele Basmat, pitit fi Elon, yon moun Et tou.
35 And Isaac and Rebekah had grief of mind because of them.
Medam sa yo te rann Izarak ak Rebeka lavi minab.
