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.
E houve fome na terra, além da primeira fome que foi nos dias de Abraão: e foi-se Isaque a Abimeleque rei dos filisteus, em Gerar.
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:
E apareceu-lhe o SENHOR, e disse-lhe: Não desças ao Egito: habita na terra que eu te disser;
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;
Habita nesta terra, e serei contigo, e te abençoarei; porque a ti e à tua descendência darei todas estas terras, e confirmarei o juramento que jurei a Abraão teu pai:
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;
E multiplicarei tua descendência como as estrelas do céu, e darei à tua descendência todas estas terras; e todas as nações da terra serão abençoadas em tua descendência.
5 Because Abraham gave ear to my voice and kept my words, my rules, my orders, and my laws.
Porquanto ouviu Abraão minha voz, e guardou meu preceito, meus mandamentos, meus estatutos e minhas leis.
6 So Isaac went on living in Gerar;
Habitou, pois, Isaque em Gerar.
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.
E os homens daquele lugar lhe perguntaram acerca de sua mulher; e ele respondeu: É minha irmã; porque teve medo de dizer: É minha mulher; que talvez, disse, os homens do lugar me matem por causa de Rebeca; porque era de belo aspecto.
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.
E sucedeu que, depois que ele esteve ali muitos dias, Abimeleque, rei dos filisteus, olhando por uma janela, viu a Isaque que acariciava Rebeca sua mulher.
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.
E chamou Abimeleque a Isaque, e disse: Eis que ela é certamente tua mulher: como, pois, disseste: É minha irmã? E Isaque lhe respondeu: Porque disse: Talvez eu morra por causa dela.
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.
E Abimeleque disse: Por que nos fizeste isto? Por pouco haveria dormido alguém do povo com tua mulher, e haverias trazido sobre nós o pecado.
11 And Abimelech gave orders to his people that anyone touching Isaac or his wife was to be put to death.
Então Abimeleque mandou a todo o povo, dizendo: O que tocar a este homem ou a sua mulher certamente morrerá.
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.
E semeou Isaque naquela terra, e achou aquele ano cem por um: e o SENHOR o abençoou.
13 And his wealth became very great, increasing more and more;
E o homem se engrandeceu, e foi engrandecendo-se cada vez mais, até fazer-se muito poderoso:
14 For he had great wealth of flocks and herds and great numbers of servants; so that the Philistines were full of envy.
E teve rebanho de ovelhas, e rebanho de vacas, e grande número de servos; e os filisteus tiveram inveja dele.
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.
E todos os poços que os criados de Abraão seu pai haviam aberto em seus dias, os filisteus os haviam fechado e enchido da terra.
16 And Abimelech said to Isaac, Go away from us, for you are stronger than we are.
E disse Abimeleque a Isaque: Aparta-te de nós, porque muito mais poderoso que nós te fizeste.
17 So Isaac went away from there, and put up his tents in the valley of Gerar, making his living-place there.
E Isaque se foi dali; e assentou suas tendas no vale de Gerar, e habitou ali.
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.
E voltou a abrir Isaque os poços de água que haviam aberto nos dias de Abraão seu pai, e que os filisteus haviam fechado, depois de Abraão ter morrido; e chamou-os pelos nomes que seu pai os havia chamado.
19 Now Isaac's servants made holes in the valley, and came to a spring of flowing water.
E os servos de Isaque cavaram no vale, e acharam ali um poço de águas vivas.
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.
E os pastores de Gerar brigaram com os pastores de Isaque, dizendo: A água é nossa: por isso chamou o nome do poço Eseque, porque haviam brigado com ele.
21 Then they made another water-hole, and there was a fight about that, so he gave it the name of Sitnah.
E abriram outro poço, e também brigaram sobre ele: e chamou seu nome Sitna.
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.
E apartou-se dali, e abriu outro poço, e não brigaram sobre ele: e chamou seu nome Reobote, e disse: Porque agora nos fez alargar o SENHOR e frutificaremos na terra.
23 And from there he went on to Beer-sheba.
E dali subiu a Berseba.
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.
E apareceu-lhe o SENHOR aquela noite, e disse: Eu sou o Deus de Abraão teu pai: não temas, que eu sou contigo, e eu te abençoarei, e multiplicarei tua descendência por causa do meu servo Abraão.
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.
E edificou ali um altar, e invocou o nome do SENHOR, e estendeu ali sua tenda: e abriram ali os servos de Isaque um poço.
26 And Abimelech had come to him from Gerar, with Ahuzzath his friend and Phicol, the captain of his army.
E Abimeleque veio a ele desde Gerar, e Auzate, amigo seu, e Ficol, capitão de seu exército.
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?
E disse-lhes Isaque: Por que vindes a mim, pois que haveis me odiado, e me expulsastes dentre vós?
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;
E eles responderam: Vimos que o SENHOR é contigo; e dissemos: Haja agora juramento entre nós, entre nós e ti, e faremos aliança contigo:
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.
Que não nos faças mal, como nós não te tocamos, y como somente te fizemos bem, e te enviamos em paz: tu agora, bendito do SENHOR.
30 Then he made a feast for them, and they all had food and drink.
Então ele lhes fez banquete, e comeram e beberam.
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.
E se levantaram de madrugada, e juraram um ao outro; e Isaque os despediu, e eles se partiram dele em paz.
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.
E naquele dia sucedeu que vieram os criados de Isaque, e deram-lhe notícias acerca do poço que haviam aberto, e lhe disseram: Achamos água.
33 And he gave it the name of Shibah: so the name of that town is Beer-sheba to this day.
E chamou-o Seba: por cuja causa o nome daquela cidade é Berseba até hoje.
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:
E quando Esaú foi de quarenta anos, tomou por mulher a Judite filha de Beeri heteu, e a Basemate filha de Elom heteu:
35 And Isaac and Rebekah had grief of mind because of them.
E foram amargura de espírito a Isaque e a Rebeca.
