< Genesis 26 >
1 There was a famine in the country—not the one that happened before in Abraham's time, but a later one. So Isaac moved to Gerar in the territory of Abimelech, king of the Philistines.
Lao esa, hambu ndoe-laꞌas manaseliꞌ sia nusaꞌ naa, onaꞌ ndoe-laꞌas leleꞌ Abraham feꞌe masodꞌaꞌ. Dadꞌi Isak neu noꞌe isin sia Abimelek, atahori Filistin ra mane na, fo eni bisa leo sia Gerar.
2 The Lord appeared to Isaac and told him, “Don't go to Egypt—live in the country that I tell you to.
Ana tao taꞌo naa, huu LAMATUALAIN natudꞌu Ao na neu e nae, “Afiꞌ muu sia Masir. Dei fo Au utudꞌu nggo mamana feaꞌ.
3 Stay here in this country. I will be with you and I will bless you, because I'm going to give you and your descendants all these lands. I will keep the solemn promise that I swore to Abraham your father.
Mete ma ho leo manumban sia mamanaꞌ naa, naa, Au o nggo, ma fee nggo papala-babꞌanggiꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ. Au tao tititi-nonosi mara ramahefu, onaꞌ nduuꞌ sia lalai a. Au fee nggo mo tititi-nonosi mara mamanaꞌ ia no basa nusa nara. Mia tititi-nonosi mara, basa atahori raefafoꞌ a hambu papala-babꞌanggiꞌ. No naa, Au tao utetu hehelu-fufuli ngga o amam Abraham.
4 I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars of heaven and I will give them all these lands. All the nations of the earth will be blessed by your descendants,
5 because Abraham did what I told him, and kept my requirements, my commands, my regulations, and my laws.”
Au tao basa ia ra, huu amam tungga hihii Ngga, parenda Ngga, ma dala Ngga.”
6 So Isaac stayed in Gerar.
De Isak leo manumban sia Gerar.
7 When the men there asked him about his wife, he told them, “She's my sister,” because he was afraid. He said to himself, “If I say she's my wife, the men here will kill me to get Rebekah, because she's so beautiful.”
Ribka, meulau na seli. Dadꞌi atahori sia naa ra rita e ma, ara ratatane e. Te Isak nataa nae, “Ribka ia, au odꞌi ngga.” Ana namatau mete ma eni nataa nae sao na, neꞌo atahori ra tao risa e fo haꞌi rala Ribka.
8 But later on, after he'd been there a while, Abimelech, king of the Philistines, happened to look out the window and saw Isaac lovingly fondling his wife Rebekah.
Isak leo dodꞌoo sia naa ena ma, lao esa maneꞌ a nakaloloik mia jendela, ma nita Isak holu ma idꞌu Ribka.
9 Abimelech sent for Isaac and complained. “From what I saw she's clearly your wife!” he said. “Why on earth did you say, ‘She's my sister’?” “Because I thought I'd be killed because of her,” Isaac replied.
Boe ma ana denu atahori roꞌe Isak, de natane e nae, “Isak! Inaꞌ naa, sao ma! Saa de mae, ho odꞌim?” Isak nataa nae, “Taꞌo ia, amaꞌ! Au umutau mete ma ae eni, au sao ngga, afiꞌ losa atahori ra tao risa au.”
10 “Why would you do this to us?” Abimelech asked. “One of the men here might have slept with your wife, and you would have made us all guilty!”
Maneꞌ a nataa nae, “Mete ma atahori sia ia sungguꞌ ro sao ma naa, ho fee salaꞌ neu hai! Taꞌo bee de ho tao taꞌo naa neu hai?”
11 Abimelech issued orders to all the people, warning them, “Anyone who touches this man or his wife will be executed.”
Basa ma, Abimelek fee nesenenedꞌaꞌ neu rauinggu nara nae, “Misinedꞌa malolole! Hei seka mimbirani ngganggu atahori ia, do sao na, naa, au hukun isa nggi.”
12 Isaac sowed grain that year, and the Lord blessed him with a harvest that was a hundred times what he planted.
Leleꞌ naa, Isak sela-nggari sia nusaꞌ naa. Ana hambu baliꞌ buna-bꞌoa na lao natun esa, huu LAMATUALAIN fee ne papala-babꞌanggiꞌ.
13 He became a rich man, and his wealth steadily increased until he was very rich.
Ana bau namasuꞌi, losa namasuꞌi raranggi.
14 He owned many flocks of sheep and herds of cattle, as well as many slaves. He had so much that the Philistines became jealous of him.
Sapi, bibꞌi, ma hiek nara, boe ramahefu. Ana mana tao ues nara o, hetar boe. De atahori Filistin ra rala nara mera mbali e.
15 So the Philistines used dirt to block up all the wells his father Abraham's servants had dug.
Maꞌahulu naa, Isak aman Abraham se ali oe mataꞌ naeꞌ. Te ia naa, atahori Filistin ra mbori raꞌateme oe mataꞌ ra no rae.
16 Then Abimelech told Isaac, “You have to leave our country, because you've become much too powerful for us.”
Boe ma mane Abimelek olaꞌ no Isak nae, “Isak! Malole lenaꞌ, ho lao hela nusaꞌ ia leo. Te koasa ma lenaꞌ hai ena.”
17 So Isaac moved away and set up his tents in the Gerar Valley where he settled down.
Basa de, Isak lao hela naa, de neu leo baliꞌ sia lololoꞌ Gerar.
18 He unblocked the wells that had been dug in his father Abraham's time—the ones the Philistines had blocked after the death of Abraham. He gave them the same names his father had.
Ana ali baliꞌ oe mataꞌ, fo ara tatanaꞌ ra. Ana babꞌae oe mataꞌ ra, tungga nara-naraꞌ fo ama na babꞌae nalaꞌ ra.
19 Isaac's servants also dug a new well in the valley and found spring water.
Isak ate nara ali oe mataꞌ sia lololoꞌ Gerar ma, ara ali dai oe a mata na, de nasapupuraꞌ dea neu.
20 But the herdsmen from Gerar argued with Isaac's herdsmen, claiming, “That's our water!” So Isaac named the well, “Argument,” because they argued with him.
Te Gerar manatadꞌa nara rareresi ro Isak manatadꞌa nara, huu oe mataꞌ naa. Ara rae, “Ia hai oe ma!” Naa de, Isak babꞌae oe mataꞌ naa Esek, sosoa na ‘rareresi’.
21 He had another well dug, and they argued over that one too. He named the well, “Opposition.”
Basa ma, Isak atahori nara ali seluꞌ oe mataꞌ esa fai. Te ara rareresi fai, huu oe mataꞌ naa. Naa de, Isak babꞌae oe mataꞌ naa, Sitna, sosoa na ‘balabꞌan’.
22 So they moved on from there and he had another well dug. This time there was no argument so he named the well, “Freedom,” saying, “Now the Lord has given us freedom to expand and be successful in this land.”
Basa naa ma, ana lao hela mamanaꞌ naa, de ali seluꞌ oe mataꞌ feaꞌ fai. Ia ma, ara nda rareresi sa. Naa de Isak babꞌae oe mataꞌ naa, Rehobot, sosoa na ‘mamana loaꞌ’. Ana olaꞌ nae, “Ia naa, Lamatualain fee hita leo sia mamana loaꞌ. Sia ia dei de, hita feꞌe tamahefu naa.”
23 From there he moved on to Beersheba.
Mia naa, Isak se lao fo reu leo sia Beer Syeba.
24 That night the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am the God of Abraham your father. Don't be afraid, for I am with you. I will bless you and give you many descendants for the sake of my servant Abraham.”
Tetembaꞌ naa, LAMATUALAIN natudꞌu Ao na neu e, ma olaꞌ nae, “Isak! Au ia, ho ama ma Abraham Lamatualain na. Afiꞌ mumutau, te Au unea nggo. Au fee nggo papala-babꞌanggiꞌ. Ma tititi-nonosi mara boe ramahefu. Au tao taꞌo ia, huu hehelu-fufuli Ngga neu ama ma.”
25 Isaac built an altar and worshiped the Lord. He also set up his tent, and his servants dug a well there.
Basa ma Isak lutu mbatu mei tutunu-hohotuꞌ sia naa, de noꞌe makasi neu LAMATUALAIN. Ana leo sia naa, ma atahori nara ali oe fai.
26 Sometime later Abimelech came from Gerar to see Isaac, along with Ahuzzath his advisor, and Phicol the commander of his army.
Leleꞌ naa, mane Abimelek nema mia Gerar. Ana nema no nonoo na Ahusat, ma malangga netati na, Fikol, fo randaa ro Isak.
27 “Why have you come to see me?” Isaac asked them. “Previously you hated me and told me to leave!”
Isak natane nae, “Ama maneꞌ! Feꞌesaꞌan, hei oi hendi hai ena. De ia naa, hei ima mae tao saa fai?”
28 “Now we realize that the Lord is with you,” they replied. “So we agreed that we should make a sworn agreement with you.
Ara rataa rae, “Taꞌo ia! Ia naa hai bubꞌuluꞌ mae, Lamatualain nanea nggo. Huu naa, hai duꞌa-duꞌa, maloleꞌ lenaꞌ ruꞌa nggita tao hehelu-fufuliꞌ taꞌo ia: Ho sumba mae,
29 You'll promise not to harm us in the same way we've never hurt you. You'll agree that we've always treated you well, and when we asked you to leave we did so kindly. Now look at how the Lord is blessing you!”
hei nda tao deꞌulakaꞌ mbali hai sa, onaꞌ hai o nda tao deꞌulakaꞌ mbali hei saꞌ boe. Memaꞌ hai rala mara maloleꞌ mo hei. Naa de, fai mana neuꞌ naa ra, hei lao mo mole-dame mia hai mbuku-kambo ma. Hai mihine tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ, LAMATUALAIN mana fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu hei.”
30 So Isaac had a special meal prepared to celebrate the agreement. They ate and drank,
Basa ma, Isak tao fefetas, de raa-rinu raꞌabꞌue reu esa.
31 and got up early in the morning and they each swore oaths to one other. Then Isaac sent them on their way, and they left in peace.
Mbila fefetu na ma, ara tao susumbaꞌ. Dei de Isak fee se baliꞌ no mole-dame.
32 It was that very day when Isaac's servants who'd been digging a well came and told him, “We've found water!”
Faiꞌ naa, Isak atahori mana tao ues nara rema rafadꞌe rae oe mataꞌ fo sira aliꞌ a, hambu oeꞌ ena.”
33 So Isaac named the well, “Oath,” and that's why the name of the town is “Well of the Oath” (Beersheba) to this day.
De Isak babꞌae oe mataꞌ naa, Syeba, sosoa na ‘susumbaꞌ’. Ara babꞌae kamboꞌ naa Beer Syeba, losa faiꞌ ia.
34 When Esau was 40, he married Judith, daughter of Beeri the Hittite, as well as Basemath, daughter of Elon the Hittite.
Esau too haa nulu ma, ana sao nala ana fetoꞌ rua mia leo Het. Esa, Beeri ana na, naran Yudit. Ma esa fai, Elon ana na, naran Basmat.
35 They caused Isaac and Rebekah a great deal of grief.
Inaꞌ ka ruaꞌ naa ra, raꞌasususaꞌ Isak no Ribka rala nara.
