Genesis 26
1 And there was a famine in the land, besides the former famine which had been in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to Abimelech the king of the Philistines, to Gerar.
अब्राहामको समयमा परेको पहिलो अनिकालबाहेक त्यस देशमा अर्को अनिकाल पनि पर्यो । इसहाक पलिश्तीहरूका राजा अबीमेलेककहाँ गरार देशमा गए ।
2 And Jehovah appeared to him and said, Go not down to Egypt: dwell in the land that I shall tell thee of.
तिनीकहाँ देखा परेर परमप्रभुले भन्नुभयो, “तल मिश्रमा नजा, मैले तँलाई बसोबास गर् भनेकै ठाउँमा बस् ।
3 Sojourn in this land; and I will be with thee and bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries; and I will perform the oath which I swore unto Abraham thy father.
यही ठाउँमा बसोबास गर्, र म तँसँग रहनेछु, र तँलाई आशिष् दिनेछु, किनकि म यी देशहरू तँ र तेरा सन्तानलाई दिनेछु, अनि तेरो बुबा अब्राहामसँग मैले शपथ खाएर दिएको प्रतिज्ञा म पुरा गर्नेछु ।
4 And I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven, and unto thy seed will I give all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth bless themselves —
तेरा सन्तानलाई आकाशका ताराहरूझैँ बढाउनेछु, र तिनीहरूलाई यी सबै देश दिनेछु । संसारका सबै जातिहरूले तेरै सन्तानहरूद्वारा आशिष् पाउनेछन् ।
5 because that Abraham hearkened to my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.
अब्राहामले मेरो वचन पालन गरेको र मैले दिएका आदेशहरू, मेरा आज्ञाहरू, मेरा नियमहरू र मेरा विधिविधानहरूको पालन गरेको हुनाले म यो गर्नेछु ।”
6 And Isaac dwelt at Gerar.
यसैकारण इसहाक गरारमा नै बसे ।
7 And the men of the place asked about his wife. And he said, She is my sister; for he feared to say, my wife, [saying to himself, ] Lest the men of the place slay me on account of Rebecca — because she was fair in countenance.
त्यस ठाउँका मानिसहरूले तिनकी पत्नीको विषयमा सोधपुछ गर्दा तिनले “तिनी मेरी बहिनी हुन्” भने । किनकि तिनले यस्तो सोचे, “रिबेकालाई प्राप्त गर्नको लागि यस ठाउँका मानिसहरूले मलाई मार्नेछन्, किनकी तिनी धेरै सुन्दरी छिन् ।”
8 And it came to pass when he had been there some time, that Abimelech the king of the Philistines looked out of the window, and saw, and behold, Isaac was dallying with Rebecca his wife.
इसहाक त्यहाँ बसेको धेरै दिनपछि पलिश्तीहरूका राजा अबीमेलेकले झ्यालबाट हेर्न पुगे । इसहाक आफ्नी पत्नी रिबेकासँग प्रेम-क्रीडा गरिरहेका थिए ।
9 Then Abimelech called Isaac, and said, Behold, she is certainly thy wife; and how saidst thou, She is my sister? and Isaac said to him, Because I said, Lest I die on account of her.
अबीमेलेकले इसहाकलाई आफूकहाँ बोलाएर भने, “हेर, तिनी पक्कै पनि तिम्री पत्नी हुन् । किन तिमीले ‘तिनी मेरी बहिनी हुन्’ भन्यौ?” इसहाकले उनलाई भने, “किनभने तिनलाई प्राप्त गर्नको निम्ति कसैले मार्लान् भन्ने मैले सोचें ।”
10 And Abimelech said, What is this thou hast done to us? But a little and one of the people might have lain with thy wife, and thou wouldest have brought a trespass on us.
अबीमेलेकले भने, “तिमीले हामीसँग यो के गरेको? कुनै मानिसले तिम्री पत्नीसित सजिलै नराम्रो कर्म गर्ने थियो, र तिमीले हामीमाथि दोष ल्याउने थियौ ।”
11 And Abimelech charged all the people, saying, He that touches this man or his wife shall certainly be put to death.
यसकारण अबीमेलेकले सबै मानिसहरूलाई चेताउनी दिएर भने, “यी मानिस अथवा यिनकी पत्नीलाई छुने जुनसुकै मानिसलाई पनि निश्चय नै मृत्युदण्ड हुनेछ ।”
12 And Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year a hundredfold; and Jehovah blessed him.
इसहाकले त्यस देशमा बालीनाली लगाए, र त्यही साल सय गुणा कटनी गरे । किनभने परमेश्वरले तिनलाई आशिष् दिनुभयो ।
13 And the man became great, and he became continually greater, until he was very great.
तिनी धनी भए, र अत्यन्तै धनाढ्य नहुञ्जेलसम्म झनझन बढेर गए ।
14 And he had possessions of flocks, and possessions of herds, and a great number of servants; and the Philistines envied him.
तिनका धेरै भेडाबाख्रा, गाईवस्तु र ठुलो परिवार भयो । यसैकारण पलिश्तीहरूले तिनको डाह गरे ।
15 And all the wells that his father's servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines stopped them and filled them with earth.
तिनका पिता अब्राहामको पालोमा उनका नोकरहरूले खनेका सबै इनारहरू पलिश्तीहरूले ढुङ्गा-माटोले पुरेर रोकिदिए ।
16 And Abimelech said to Isaac, Go from us; for thou art become much mightier than we.
त्यसपछि अबीमेलेकले इसहाकलाई भने, “हामीहरूबाट अब तिमी गइहाल, किनभने तिमी हामीभन्दा ज्यादै शक्तिशाली छौ ।”
17 And Isaac departed thence, and pitched his camp in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.
त्यसैले इसहाक त्यहाँबाट निस्केर गए अनि गरारको बेँसीमा आफ्नो पाल टाँगेर बसोबास गरे ।
18 And Isaac dug again the wells of water that they had dug in the days of Abraham his father, and that the Philistines had stopped after the death of Abraham; and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them.
तिनले आफ्ना पिताका पालोमा तिनीहरूले खनेका इनारहरू फेरि खने । अब्राहामको मृत्युपछि पलिश्तीहरूले ती रोकिदिएका थिए । अनि तिनले ती इनारहरूलाई आफ्ना पिताले राखेकै नाउँ राखिदिए ।
19 And Isaac's servants dug in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.
इसहाकका नोकरहरूले बेँसीमा खन्दा बगिरहेको पानीको मूल भेट्टाए ।
20 But the shepherds of Gerar strove with Isaac's shepherds, saying, The water is ours. And he called the name of the well Esek, because they had quarrelled with him.
तर गरारका गोठालाहरूले इसहाकका गोठालाहरूसँग झगडा गरेर भने “यो पानी हाम्रो हो ।” यसकारण इसहाकले त्यस इनारको नाउँ एसेक राखे, किनभने तिनीहरूले उनीसँग झगडा गरे ।
21 And they dug another well, and they strove for that also; and he called the name of it Sitnah.
तब तिनीहरूले अर्को इनार खने, र त्यसमा पनि तिनीहरूले झगडा गरे । यसकारण तिनले त्यसको नाउँ सित्ना राखे ।
22 And he removed thence and dug another well; and they did not strive for that. And he called the name of it Rehoboth, and said, For now Jehovah has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.
तिनी त्यो ठाउँ छोडेर गए अनि तिनले अर्को इनार खने, तर तिनीहरूले त्यसमा चाहिँ झगडा गरेनन् । यसकारण तिनले त्यसको नाउँ रहोबोत राखेर यसो भने, “अब परमप्रभुले हामी निम्ति बस्ने ठाउँ दिनुभएको छ, र हामी यस ठाउँमा फल्दो-फुल्दो हुनेछौँ ।”
23 And he went up thence to Beer-sheba.
त्यसपछि इसहाक बेर्शेबामा गए ।
24 And Jehovah appeared to him the same night, and said, I am the God of Abraham thy father: fear not, for I am with thee, and will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham's sake.
परमप्रभु त्यही रात तिनीकहाँ देखा पर्नुभयो अनि भन्नुभयो, “म तेरो पिता अब्राहामका परमेश्वर हुँ । नडरा, किनभने म तँसँग छु र म तँलाई आशिष् दिनेछु । अनि मेरो दास अब्राहामको खातिर म तेरा सन्तानको वृद्धि गराउनेछु ।”
25 And he built an altar there, and called upon the name of Jehovah. And he pitched his tent there; and there Isaac's servants dug a well.
इसहाकले त्यहाँ एउटा वेदी बनाएर परमप्रभुका नाउँको पुकारा गरे । तिनले आफ्नो पाल त्यहीँ नै टाँगे, र तिनका नोकरहरूले त्यहाँ एउटा इनार खने ।
26 And Abimelech, and Ahuzzath his friend, and Phichol the captain of his host, went to him from Gerar.
एक दिन अबीमेलेक आफ्ना मित्र अहुज्जत र आफ्नो फौजका सेनापति पीकोललाई साथमा लिएर गरारबाट तिनीकहाँ आए ।
27 And Isaac said to them, Why are ye come to me, seeing ye hate me, and have driven me away from you?
इसहाकले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “घृणा गरेर तपाईंहरूले आफ्नो बिचबाट मलाई निकाल्नुभयो, अनि तपाईंहरू अहिले किन मकहाँ आउँदै
28 And they said, We saw certainly that Jehovah is with thee; and we said, Let there be then an oath between us — between us and thee, and let us make a covenant with thee,
हुनुहुन्छ?” त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले भने, “हामीले प्रस्टै देख्यौँ कि परमप्रभु तपाईंसँग हुनुहुन्छ । यसैले हाम्रा बिचमा, अर्थात् तपाईं र हाम्रा बिचमा एउटा सम्झौता होस् भन्ने हामीले निर्णय गर्यौँ,
29 that thou wilt do us no wrong, as we have not touched thee, and as we have done to thee nothing but good, and have let thee go in peace; thou art now blessed of Jehovah.
ताकि जसरी हामीले तपाईंको कुनै हानी गरेनौँ र तपाईंसँग राम्रो व्यवहार गर्यौँ अनि तपाईंलाई शान्तिमा पठायौँ । त्यसरी नै तपाईंले पनि हाम्रो कुनै हानि गर्नुहुनेछैन । तपाईं साँच्चै नै परमप्रभुबाट आशिषित् हुनुहुन्छ ।”
30 And he made them a feast, and they ate and drank.
त्यसैले इसहाकले तिनीहरूका निम्ति भोज तयार गरे, र तिनीहरूले खाए र पिए ।
31 And they rose early in the morning, and swore one to another; and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.
तिनीहरू बिहान सबेरै उठे र आपसमा शपथ खाए । अनि इसहाकले तिनीहरूलाई बिदा दिए, र तिनीहरूले उनलाई शान्तिमा छाडेर गए ।
32 And it came to pass the same day, that Isaac's servants came, and told him concerning the well that they had dug, and said to him, We have found water.
त्यही दिन इसहाकका नोकरहरू आएर तिनीहरूले खनेका इनारको विषयमा तिनलाई बताए । तिनीहरूले भने, “हामीले पानी भेट्टाएका छौँ ।”
33 And he called it Shebah; therefore the name of the city is Beer-sheba to this day.
तिनले त्यस इनारको नाउँ शिबा राखे, यसकारण त्यस सहरको नाउँ आजसम्म पनि बेर्शेबा नै छ ।
34 And Esau was forty years old, when he took as wives Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Basmath the daughter of Elon the Hittite.
चालिस वर्षको हुँदा एसावले हित्ती बेरीकी छोरी यहूदीत र हित्ती एलोनकी छोरी बासमतलाई विवाह गरी ल्याए ।
35 And they were a grief of mind to Isaac and to Rebecca.
तिनीहरूले इसहाक र रिबेकाको जीवनमा दुःख ल्याए ।
