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.
At nagkagutom sa lupain, bukod sa unang pagkakagutom na nangyari ng mga araw ni Abraham. At naparoon si Isaac kay Abimelech, na hari ng mga Filisteo sa Gerar.
2 The Lord appeared to Isaac and told him, “Don't go to Egypt—live in the country that I tell you to.
At napakita ang Panginoon sa kaniya, at nagsabi, Huwag kang bumaba sa Egipto; matira ka sa lupaing aking sasabihin sa iyo:
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.
Matira ka sa lupaing ito, at ako'y sasa iyo, at ikaw ay aking pagpapalain; sapagka't sa iyo at sa iyong binhi ay ibibigay ko ang lahat ng lupaing ito, at pagtitibayin ko ang sumpang aking isinumpa kay Abraham na iyong ama;
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,
At aking pararamihin ang iyong binhi na gaya ng mga bituin sa langit, at ibibigay ko sa iyong binhi ang lahat ng lupaing ito: at pagpapalain sa iyong binhi ang lahat ng bansa sa lupa;
5 because Abraham did what I told him, and kept my requirements, my commands, my regulations, and my laws.”
Sapagka't sinunod ni Abraham ang aking tinig, at ginanap ang aking bilin, ang aking mga utos, ang aking mga palatuntunan at ang aking mga kautusan.
6 So Isaac stayed in Gerar.
At tumahan si Isaac sa 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.”
At tinanong siya ng mga taong tagaroon tungkol sa kaniyang asawa; at sinabi niya, Siya'y aking kapatid; sapagka't natakot na sabihin, Siya'y aking asawa: baka ako'y patayin, aniya, ng mga taong tagarito, dahil kay Rebeca; dahil sa siya'y may magandang anyo.
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.
At nangyari nang siya'y naroong mahabang panahon, na dumungaw si Abimelech, na hari ng mga Filisteo sa isang durungawan, at tumingin, at narito't si Isaac ay nakikipaglaro kay Rebeca na kaniyang asawa.
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.
At tinawag ni Abimelech si Isaac, at sa kaniya'y sinabi, Narito, tunay na siya'y iyong asawa: at bakit sinabi mo, Siya'y aking kapatid? At sumagot sa kaniya si Isaac, Sapagka't sinabi ko, Baka ako'y mamatay dahil sa kaniya.
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!”
At sinabi ni Abimelech, Ano itong ginawa mo sa amin? hindi malayong ang sinoman sa bayan ay nakasiping sa iyong asawa, at sa gayon ay pinapagkasala mo kami.
11 Abimelech issued orders to all the people, warning them, “Anyone who touches this man or his wife will be executed.”
At ibinilin ni Abimelech sa buong bayan, na sinabi, Ang gumalaw sa lalaking ito o sa kaniyang asawa ay tunay na papatayin.
12 Isaac sowed grain that year, and the Lord blessed him with a harvest that was a hundred times what he planted.
At si Isaac ay naghasik sa lupaing yaon, at umani siya ng taong yaon, ng tigisang daan at pinagpala siya ng Panginoon.
13 He became a rich man, and his wealth steadily increased until he was very rich.
At naging dakila ang lalake at lalo't lalong naging dakila hanggang sa naging totoong dakila.
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.
At siya'y may tinatangkilik na mga kawan, at mga tinatangkilik na mga bakahan, at malaking sangbahayan: at kinainggitan siya ng mga Filisteo.
15 So the Philistines used dirt to block up all the wells his father Abraham's servants had dug.
Lahat ng mga balon ngang hinukay ng mga bataan ng kaniyang ama, nang mga kaarawan ni Abraham na kaniyang ama, ay pinagtabunan ng mga Filisteo, na mga pinuno ng lupa.
16 Then Abimelech told Isaac, “You have to leave our country, because you've become much too powerful for us.”
At sinabi ni Abimelech kay Isaac; Humiwalay ka sa amin, sapagka't ikaw ay makapupong matibay kay sa amin.
17 So Isaac moved away and set up his tents in the Gerar Valley where he settled down.
At umalis si Isaac doon, at humantong sa libis ng Gerar, at tumahan doon.
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.
At muling hinukay ni Isaac ang mga balon ng tubig na kanilang hinukay nang mga kaarawan ni Abraham na kaniyang ama; sapagka't pinagtabunan ng mga Filisteo, pagkamatay ni Abraham: at kaniyang mga pinanganlan ng ayon sa mga pangalang inilagay ng kaniyang ama.
19 Isaac's servants also dug a new well in the valley and found spring water.
At humukay sa libis ang mga bataan ni Isaac, at nangakasumpong doon ng isang balon ng tubig na bumubukal.
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.
At nakipagtalo ang mga pastor ni Gerar sa mga pastor ni Isaac, na sinasabi, Amin ang tubig; at kaniyang tinawag ang pangalan ng balon, na Esec; sapagka't ipinakipagkaalit sa kaniya.
21 He had another well dug, and they argued over that one too. He named the well, “Opposition.”
At sila'y humukay ng ibang balon; at kanilang pinagtalunan din: at kaniyang tinawag ang pangalan na Sitnah.
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.”
At bumunot siya roon, at humukay ng ibang balon; at hindi nila pinagtalunan: at kaniyang tinawag ang pangalan na Rehoboth; at kaniyang sinabi, Sapagka't ngayo'y binigyan tayo ng Panginoon ng kaluwagan, at lalago tayo sa lupain.
23 From there he moved on to Beersheba.
At mula roon ay umahon siya sa Beerseba.
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.”
At napakita sa kaniya ang Panginoon ng gabi ring yaon, at nagsabi, Ako ang Dios ni Abraham na iyong ama: huwag kang matakot, sapagka't ako'y sumasaiyo, at ikaw ay aking pagpapalain, at aking pararamihin ang iyong binhi, alangalang kay Abraham na aking lingkod.
25 Isaac built an altar and worshiped the Lord. He also set up his tent, and his servants dug a well there.
At si Isaac ay nagtayo roon ng isang dambana, at kaniyang sinambitla ang pangalan ng Panginoon, at itinindig niya roon ang kaniyang tolda: at humukay roon ang mga bataan ni Isaac ng isang balon.
26 Sometime later Abimelech came from Gerar to see Isaac, along with Ahuzzath his advisor, and Phicol the commander of his army.
Nang magkagayo'y si Abimelech ay naparoon sa kaniya mula sa Gerar, at si Ahuzath na kaniyang kaibigan, at si Phicol na kapitan ng kaniyang hukbo.
27 “Why have you come to see me?” Isaac asked them. “Previously you hated me and told me to leave!”
At sinabi sa kanila ni Isaac, Bakit kayo naparirito sa akin, dangang kayo'y nangapopoot sa akin at pinalayas ninyo ako sa inyo?
28 “Now we realize that the Lord is with you,” they replied. “So we agreed that we should make a sworn agreement with you.
At sinabi nila, Malinaw na aming nakita, na ang Panginoon ay sumasaiyo: at aming sinabi, Magkaroon ng pagsusumpaan tayo, kami at ikaw at makipagtipan kami sa iyo:
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!”
Na hindi ka gagawa sa amin ng masama, gaya naman namin na hindi ka namin ginalaw, at wala kaming ginawa sa iyong di mabuti, at pinayaon ka naming payapa: ikaw ngayon ang pinagpala ng Panginoon.
30 So Isaac had a special meal prepared to celebrate the agreement. They ate and drank,
At pinaghandaan niya sila, at sila'y nagkainan at naginuman.
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.
At sila'y gumising ng madaling araw, at sila'y nagpanumpaan: at sila'y pinagpaalam ni Isaac, at nagsialis na payapa sa kaniya.
32 It was that very day when Isaac's servants who'd been digging a well came and told him, “We've found water!”
At nangyari, nang araw ding yaon, na nagsidating ang mga bataan ni Isaac, at siya'y binalitaan tungkol sa balon nilang hinukay, at sinabi sa kaniya, Nakasumpong kami ng tubig.
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.
At tinawag niyang Seba: kaya't ang pangalan ng bayang yaon ay Beerseba hanggang ngayon.
34 When Esau was 40, he married Judith, daughter of Beeri the Hittite, as well as Basemath, daughter of Elon the Hittite.
At nang si Esau ay may apat na pung taon ay nagasawa kay Judit, na anak ni Beeri na Heteo, at kay Basemat na anak ni Elon na Heteo:
35 They caused Isaac and Rebekah a great deal of grief.
At sila'y nakasama ng loob kay Isaac at kay Rebeca.
