Genesis 26
1 And there was a famine in the land, besides the former famine, which was in the time of Abraam; and Isaac went to Abimelech the king of the Phylistines to Gerara.
orta autem fame super terram post eam sterilitatem quae acciderat in diebus Abraham abiit Isaac ad Abimelech regem Palestinorum in Gerara
2 And the Lord appeared to him and said, Go not down to Egypt, but dwell in the land, which I shall tell you of.
apparuitque ei Dominus et ait ne descendas in Aegyptum sed quiesce in terra quam dixero tibi
3 And sojourn in this land; and I will be with you, and bless you, for I will give to you and to your seed all this land; and I will establish my oath which I swore to your father Abraam.
et peregrinare in ea eroque tecum et benedicam tibi tibi enim et semini tuo dabo universas regiones has conplens iuramentum quod spopondi Abraham patri tuo
4 And I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven; and I will give to your seed all this land, and all the nations of the earth shall be blest in your seed.
et multiplicabo semen tuum sicut stellas caeli daboque posteris tuis universas regiones has et benedicentur in semine tuo omnes gentes terrae
5 Because Abraam your father listened to my voice, and kept my injunctions, and my commandments, and my ordinances, and my statutes.
eo quod oboedierit Abraham voci meae et custodierit praecepta et mandata mea et caerimonias legesque servaverit
6 And Isaac lived in Gerara.
mansit itaque Isaac in Geraris
7 And the men of the place questioned him concerning Rebecca his wife, and he said, She is my sister, for he feared to say, She is my wife, lest at any time the men of the place should kill him because of Rebecca, because she was fair.
qui cum interrogaretur a viris loci illius super uxore sua respondit soror mea est timuerat enim confiteri quod sibi esset sociata coniugio reputans ne forte interficerent eum propter illius pulchritudinem
8 And he remained there a long time, and Abimelech the king of Gerara leaned to look through the window, and saw Isaac sporting with Rebecca his wife.
cumque pertransissent dies plurimi et ibi demoraretur prospiciens Abimelech Palestinorum rex per fenestram vidit eum iocantem cum Rebecca uxore sua
9 And Abimelech called Isaac, and said to him, Is she then your wife? why have you said, She is my sister? And Isaac said to him, [I did so], for I said, Lest at any time I die on her account.
et accersito ait perspicuum est quod uxor tua sit cur mentitus es sororem tuam esse respondit timui ne morerer propter eam
10 And Abimelech said to him, Why have you done this to us? one of my kindred within a little had lain with your wife, and you would have brought [a sin of] ignorance upon us.
dixitque Abimelech quare inposuisti nobis potuit coire quispiam de populo cum uxore tua et induxeras super nos grande peccatum praecepitque omni populo dicens
11 And Abimelech charged all his people, saying Every man that touches this man and his wife shall be liable to death.
qui tetigerit hominis huius uxorem morte morietur
12 And Isaac sowed in that land, and he found in that year barley and hundred-fold, and the Lord blessed him.
seruit autem Isaac in terra illa et invenit in ipso anno centuplum benedixitque ei Dominus
13 And the man was exalted, and advancing he increased, till he became very great.
et locupletatus est homo et ibat proficiens atque succrescens donec magnus vehementer effectus est
14 And he had cattle of sheep, and cattle of oxen, and many tilled lands, and the Phylistines envied him.
habuit quoque possessionem ovium et armentorum et familiae plurimum ob haec invidentes ei Palestini
15 And all the wells which the servants of his father had dug in the time of his father, the Phylistines stopped them, and filled them with earth.
omnes puteos quos foderant servi patris illius Abraham illo tempore obstruxerunt implentes humo
16 And Abimelech said to Isaac, Depart from us, for you are become much mightier than we.
in tantum ut ipse Abimelech diceret ad Isaac recede a nobis quoniam potentior nostri factus es valde
17 And Isaac departed thence, and rested in the valley of Gerara, and lived there.
et ille discedens veniret ad torrentem Gerarae habitaretque ibi
18 And Isaac dug again the wells of water, which the servants of his father Abraam had dug, and the Phylistines had stopped them, after the death of his father Abraam; and he gave them names, according to the names by which his father named them.
rursum fodit alios puteos quos foderant servi patris sui Abraham et quos illo mortuo olim obstruxerant Philisthim appellavitque eos hisdem nominibus quibus ante pater vocaverat
19 And the servants of Isaac dug in the valley of Gerara, and they found there a well of living water.
foderunt in torrente et reppererunt aquam vivam
20 And the shepherds of Gerara strove with the shepherds of Isaac, saying that the water was theirs; and they called the name of the well, Injury, for they injured him.
sed et ibi iurgium fuit pastorum Gerarae adversum pastores Isaac dicentium nostra est aqua quam ob rem nomen putei ex eo quod acciderat vocavit Calumniam
21 And having departed thence he dug another well, and they strove also for that; and he named the name of it, Enmity.
foderunt et alium et pro illo quoque rixati sunt appellavitque eum Inimicitias
22 And he departed thence and dug another well; and they did not strive about that; and he named the name of it, Room, saying, Because now the Lord has made room for us, and has increased us upon the earth.
profectus inde fodit alium puteum pro quo non contenderunt itaque vocavit nomen illius Latitudo dicens nunc dilatavit nos Dominus et fecit crescere super terram
23 And he went up thence to the well of the oath.
ascendit autem ex illo loco in Bersabee
24 And the Lord appeared to him in that night, and said, I am the God of Abraam your father; fear not, for I am with you, and I will bless you, and multiply your seed for the sake of Abraam your father.
ubi apparuit ei Dominus in ipsa nocte dicens ego sum Deus Abraham patris tui noli metuere quia tecum sum benedicam tibi et multiplicabo semen tuum propter servum meum Abraham
25 And he built there an altar, and called on the name of the Lord, and there he pitched his tent, and there the servants of Isaac dug a well in the valley of Gerara.
itaque aedificavit ibi altare et invocato nomine Domini extendit tabernaculum praecepitque servis suis ut foderent puteum
26 And Abimelech came to him from Gerara, and so did Ochozath his friend, and Phichol the commander-in-chief of his army.
ad quem locum cum venissent de Geraris Abimelech et Ochozath amicus illius et Fichol dux militum
27 And Isaac said to them, Therefore have you come to me? whereas you hated me, and sent me away from you.
locutus est eis Isaac quid venistis ad me hominem quem odistis et expulistis a vobis
28 And they said, We have surely seen that the Lord was with you, and we said, Let there be an oath between us and you, and we will make a covenant with you,
qui responderunt vidimus tecum esse Dominum et idcirco nunc diximus sit iuramentum inter nos et ineamus foedus
29 that you shall do no wrong by us, as we have not abhorred you, and according as we have treated you well, and have sent you forth peaceably; and now you are blessed of the Lord.
ut non facias nobis quicquam mali sicut et nos nihil tuorum adtigimus nec fecimus quod te laederet sed cum pace dimisimus auctum benedictione Domini
30 And he made a feast for them, and they ate and drank.
fecit ergo eis convivium et post cibum et potum
31 And they arose in the morning, and swore each to his neighbour; and Isaac sent them forth, and they departed from him in safety.
surgentes mane iuraverunt sibi mutuo dimisitque eos Isaac pacifice in locum suum
32 And it came to pass in that day, that the servants of Isaac came and told him of the well which they had dug; and they said, We have not found water.
ecce autem venerunt in ipso die servi Isaac adnuntiantes ei de puteo quem foderant atque dicentes invenimus aquam
33 And he called it, Oath: therefore he called the name of that city, the Well of Oath, until this day.
unde appellavit eum Abundantiam et nomen urbi inpositum est Bersabee usque in praesentem diem
34 And Esau was forty years old; and he took as wife Judith the daughter of Beoch the Chettite, and Basemath, daughter of Helon the Chettite.
Esau vero quadragenarius duxit uxores Iudith filiam Beeri Hetthei et Basemath filiam Helon eiusdem loci
35 And they were provoking to Isaac and Rebecca.
quae ambae offenderant animum Isaac et Rebeccae
