< Genesis 26 >

1 Then, when a famine arose over the land, after that barrenness which had happened in the days of Abraham, Isaac went to Abimelech, king of the Palestinians, in Gerar.
Karon adunay kagutom nga nahitabo sa yuta, gawas pa sa kagutom sa mga adlaw ni Abraham. Miadto si Isaac kang Abimelec, ang hari sa mga Felistihanon sa Gerar.
2 And the Lord appeared to him, and he said: “Do not descend into Egypt, but rest in the land that I will tell you,
Karon si Yahweh mipakita kaniya ug miingon, “Ayaw paglugsong didto sa Ehipto; puyo sa dapit nga isulti ko kanimo nga puy-an.
3 and sojourn in it, and I will be with you, and I will bless you. For to you and to your offspring I will give all these regions, completing the oath that I promised to Abraham your father.
Pabilin dinhi niining yutaa, kay magauban ako kanimo ug magapanalangin kanimo; kay alang kanimo ug sa imong mga kaliwat, ihatag ko kining tanang kayutaan, ug pagatumanon ko ang akong gisaad kang Abraham nga imong amahan.
4 And I will multiply your offspring like the stars of heaven. And I will give to your posterity all these regions. And in your offspring all the nations of the earth will be blessed,
Padaghanon ko ang imong kaliwatan sama sa mga kabituonan sa langit, ug ihatag ko kining tanang kayutaan sa imong mga kaliwatan. Pinaagi sa imong mga kaliwatan mapanalanginan ang tanang kanasoran.
5 because Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my precepts and commandments, and observed the ceremonies and the laws.”
Buhaton ko kini tungod kay nagmatinumanon man si Abraham sa akong tingog ug gitipigan ang akong mga gitudlo, ug ang akong mga kasugoan, ang akong mga pamatasan, ug ang akong mga balaod.”
6 And so Isaac remained in Gerar.
Busa mipuyo si Isaac sa Gerar.
7 And when he was questioned by the men of that place about his wife, he answered, “She is my sister.” For he was afraid to confess her to be his mate, thinking that perhaps they would put him to death because of her beauty.
Sa dihang mangutana kaniya ang mga tawo didtong dapita mahitungod sa iyang asawa, moingon siya, “Ako siyang igsoon nga babaye.” Nahadlok siya sa pagsulti nga, “Ako siyang asawa,” tungod kay naghunahuna man siya, “Patyon ako sa mga tawo niining dapita aron kuhaon si Rebeca, tungod kay siya maanyag kaayo.”
8 And when very many days had passed, and he had remained in the same place, Abimelech, king of the Palestinians, gazing through a window, saw him being playful with Rebekah, his wife.
Human makapuyo si Isaac didto sa pipila ka mga higayon, ug nahitabo nga milantaw sa iyang bintana si Abimelec, ang hari sa mga Felistihanon. Ania karon, nakita niya si Isaac naghagwa kang Rebeca nga iyang asawa.
9 And summoning him, he said: “It is clear that she is your wife. Why did you falsely claim her to be your sister?” He answered, “I was afraid, lest I might die because of her.”
Gipatawag ni Abimelec si Isaac ngadto kaniya ug miingon, “Tan-awa, sigurado gayod nga asawa mo siya. Nganong miingon ka man nga, “Ako siyang igsoon?” Miingon si Isaac kaniya, “Tungod kay naghunahuna ako nga basin adunay mopatay kanako aron makuha siya.”
10 And Abimelech said: “Why have you burdened us? Someone from the people could have lain with your wife, and you would have brought a great sin upon us.” And he instructed all the people, saying,
Mitubag si Abimelec, “Unsa ba kining gibuhat mo kanamo? Sayon lang kaayo kang bisan kinsa ang modulog sa imong asawa, ug naghatag ka ug sala kanamo.
11 “Whoever will touch the wife of this man will die a death.”
Busa gipahimangnoan ni Abimelec ang tanang mga tawo ug giingnan, “Si bisan kinsa ang motandog niining tawhana o sa iyang asawa pagapatyon.”
12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and he found, in that same year, one hundredfold. And the Lord blessed him.
Nagtanom si Isaac niadtong yutaa ug miani sa gatosan ka pilo sa samang tuiga, tungod kay gipanalanginan man siya ni Yahweh.
13 And the man was enriched, and he continued prospering as well as increasing, until he became very great.
Ang tawo naadunahan, ug nagmalambuon gayod hangtod nga nahimo siyang bantogan.
14 Likewise, he had possessions of sheep and of herds, and a very large family. Because of this, the Palestinians envied him,
Nakabaton siya ug daghang mga karnero ug mga baka, ug dakong panimalay. Ug nangasina kaniya ang mga Felistihanon.
15 so, at that time, they obstructed all the wells that the servants of his father Abraham had dug, filling them with soil.
Karon ang tanang mga atabay nga gipangkalot sa mga sulugoon sa iyang amahan sa mga adlaw ni Abraham nga iyang amahan, gipanabonan sa mga Felistihanon pinaagi sa pagpuno niini ug yuta.
16 It reached a point where Abimelech himself said to Isaac, “Move away from us, for you have become very much more powerful than we.”
Miingon si Abimelec kang Isaac, “Pahilayo na kanamo kay mas kusgan ka na kay kanamo.
17 And departing, he then went toward the torrent of Gerar, and he dwelt there.
Busa mibiya si Isaac didto ug nagbalong-balong sa walog sa Gerar, ug mipuyo didto.
18 Again, he dug up other wells, which the servants of his father Abraham had dug, and which, after his death, the Philistines had formerly obstructed. And he called them by the same names that his father had called them before.
Sa makausa pa gikalot ni Isaac pag-usab ang atabay nga may tubig, nga gipangkalot na nila sa mga adlaw ni Abraham nga iyang amahan. Gipangtabonan kini sa mga Felistihanon human sa kamatayon ni Abraham. Ginganlan ni Isaac ang mga atabay sa samang ngalan nga gipangalan sa iyang amahan kanila.
19 And they dug in the torrent, and they found living water.
Sa pagkalot sa mga sulugoon ni Isaac didto sa walog, nakakaplag sila didto ug usa ka atabay nga may nagtubod nga tubig.
20 But in that place also the shepherds of Gerar argued against the shepherds of Isaac, by saying, “It is our water.” For this reason, he called the name of the well, because of what had happened, ‘Calumny.’
Nag-away ang mga magbalantay sa Gerar batok sa mga magbalantay ni Isaac, ug miingon, “Amoa kining tubiga.” Busa gitawag ni Isaac ang atabay ug “Esek,” tungod kay nakig-away man sila kaniya.
21 Then they dug up yet another one. And over that one also they fought, and he called it, ‘Enmity.’
Unya nagkalot na usab sila ug lain nga atabay, ug nag-away na usab sila niadto, busa gitawag niya kini ug “Sitna.”
22 Advancing from there, he dug another well, over which they did not contend. And so he called its name, ‘Latitude,’ saying, “Now the Lord has expanded us and caused us to increase across the land.”
Mibiya siya didto ug mikalot ug lain na usab nga atabay, apan wala na sila nag-away niini. Busa gitawag niya kini nga Rehobot, ug miingon siya, “Karon si Yahweh naghatag ug dapit alang kanato, ug magmalambuon kita sa yuta.
23 Then he ascended from that place into Beersheba,
Unya mitungas si Isaac gikan didto padulong sa Beersheba.
24 where the Lord appeared to him on the same night, saying: “I am the God of Abraham your father. Do not be afraid, for I am with you. I will bless you, and I will multiply your offspring because of my servant Abraham.”
Mipakita kaniya si Yahweh nianang gabhiona ug miingon, “Ako ang Dios ni Abraham nga imong amahan. Ayaw kahadlok, kay ako magauban kanimo ug magpanalangin kanimo ug padaghanon ko ang imong kaliwatan, tungod ug alang sa akong sulugoon nga si Abraham.”
25 And so he built an altar there. And he invoked the name of the Lord, and he stretched out his tent. And he instructed his servants to dig a well.
Nagbuhat si Isaac ug halaran didto ug misangpit sa ngalan ni Yahweh. Gitukod niya didto ang iyang tolda, ug ang iyang mga sulugoon nagkalot ug usa ka atabay.
26 When Abimelech, and Ahuzzath, his friend, and Phicol, the leader of the military, had arrived from Gerar to that place,
Unya si Abimelec miadto kaniya gikan sa Gerar, uban ni Ahuzat, nga iyang higala, ug si Phicol, ang kapitan sa iyang kasundalohan.
27 Isaac said to them, “Why have you come to me, a man whom you hate, and whom you have expelled from among you?”
Si Isaac miingon kanila, “Nganong mianhi man kamo kanako, sanglit gikasilagan na man ninyo ako ug gipapahawa gikan kaninyo?”
28 And they responded: “We saw that the Lord is with you, and therefore we said: Let there be an oath between us, and let us initiate a pact,
Ug mitubag sila, “Nakita namo sa dayag nga si Yahweh nag-uban kanimo. Busa nakahukom kami nga kinahanglang aduna kitay panumpa tali kanato, oo, tali kanamo ug kanimo. Busa tugoti kaming makigsaad kanimo,
29 so that you may not do us any kind of harm, just as we have touched nothing of yours, and have not caused any injury to you, but with peace we released you, augmented by the blessing of the Lord.”
nga dili mo kami hilabtan, sama ra nga wala ka namo hilabti, ingon nga gitagad namo kamo pag-ayo ug gipalakaw nga malinawon. Kay tinuod gayod, gipanalanginan ka ni Yahweh.”
30 Therefore, he made them a feast, and after the food and drink,
Busa nagpakombira si Isaac alang kanila, nangaon sila ug nanginom.
31 arising in the morning, they swore to one another. And Isaac sent them away peacefully to their own place.
Mibangon sila sayo sa kabuntagon ug nanumpa sa usag-usa. Unya gipalakaw sila ni Isaac, ug mibiya silang malinawon.
32 Then, behold, on the same day the servants of Isaac came, reporting to him about a well which they had dug, and saying: “We have found water.”
Niadtong adlawa miabot ang mga sulugoon ni Isaac, ug gisuginlan nila siya mahitungod sa atabay nga ilang gikalot. Miingon sila, “Nakakaplag na kami ug tubig.”
33 Therefore, he called it, ‘Abundance.’ And the name of the city was established as ‘Beersheba,’ even to the present day.
Gitawag niya ang atabay ug Shiba, busa ang ngalan sa maong siyudad Beersheba hangtod karong mga panahona.
34 In truth, at forty years of age, Esau took wives: Judith, the daughter of Beeri, the Hittite, and Basemath, the daughter of Elon, of the same place.
Sa nagpanuigon na si Esau ug 40, gipangasawa niya si Judith ang anak ni Beeri nga Hitihanon, ug si Basemath ang anak ni Elon nga Hitihanon.
35 And they both offended the mind of Isaac and Rebekah.
Nakapaguol sila ngadto kang Isaac ug kang Rebeca.
