< Genesis 20 >
1 Afterward Abraham departed thence toward the South countrey and dwelled betweene Cadesh and Shur, and soiourned in Gerar.
Pea naʻe fononga ʻa ʻEpalahame mei ai, ki he fonua ʻi he feituʻu tonga, pea nofo ia ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo Ketesi mo Sua, pea ʻāunofo ia ʻi Kela.
2 And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She is my sister. Then Abimelech King of Gerar sent and tooke Sarah.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻEpalahame [ʻi heʻene lau ]ki hono uaifi ko Sela, “Ko hoku tuofefine ia:” pea fekauʻi ʻe ʻApimeleki, ko e tuʻi ʻo Kela, ʻo ne ʻave ʻa Sela.
3 But God came to Abimelech in a dreame by night, and said to him, Beholde, thou art but dead, because of the woman, which thou hast taken: for she is a mans wife.
Ka naʻe hā mai ʻae ʻOtua kia ʻApimeleki ʻi he misi ʻi he pō, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Vakai ko e tangata mate koe, koeʻuhi ko e fefine kuo ke toʻo, he ko e uaifi ia ʻo ha tangata.”
4 (Notwithstanding Abimelech had not yet come neere her) And he said, Lord, wilt thou slay euen the righteous nation?
Ka naʻe teʻeki ai ofi ʻa ʻApimeleki kiate ia: pea pehē ʻe ia, “E ʻEiki, te ke fakaʻauha foki ʻae puleʻanga māʻoniʻoni?
5 Said not he vnto me, She is my sister? yea, and she her selfe said, He is my brother: with an vpright minde, and innocent handes haue I done this.
ʻIkai naʻa ne pehē mai kiate au, ‘Ko hoku tuofefine ia?’ Mo e fefine, naʻe pehē ʻe ia, ‘Ko hoku tuongaʻane ia;’ ʻi he totonu ʻa hoku loto, mo e māʻoniʻoni ʻa hoku nima kuo u fai ʻae meʻa ni.”
6 And God saide vnto him by a dreame, I knowe that thou diddest this euen with an vpright minde, and I kept thee also that thou shouldest not sinne against me: therefore suffered I thee not to touche her.
Pea pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kiate ia ʻi he misi, “ʻIo, ʻoku ou ʻilo naʻa ke fai ia ʻi he anga totonu, he naʻaku taʻofi koe foki ke ʻoua naʻa ke fai hala kiate au; ko ia naʻe ʻikai te u tuku koe ke ke ala kiate ia.
7 Now then deliuer the man his wife againe: for he is a Prophet, and he shall pray for thee that thou mayest liue: but if thou deliuer her not againe, be sure that thou shalt die the death, thou, and all that thou hast.
Pea ko eni, ke ke toe ʻatu ki he tangata hono uaifi; he ko e palōfita ia, pea te ne hūfia koe, pea te ke moʻui: pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te ke toe ʻatu ia, ke ke ʻilo ko e moʻoni te ke mate, ʻa koe mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻoʻou.”
8 Then Abimelech rising vp early in ye morning, called all his seruants, and tolde all these things vnto them, and the men were sore afraid.
Ko ia naʻe tuʻu hengihengi hake ai ʻa ʻApimeleki, ʻo ne ui ʻene kau nofoʻanga kotoa pē, ʻo ne fakahā kiate kinautolu ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē; pea naʻa nau manavahē lahi.
9 Afterward Abimelech called Abraham, and said vnto him, What hast thou done vnto vs? and what haue I offeded thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdome this great sinne? thou hast done things vnto me that ought not to be done.
Pea fekau ʻe ʻApimeleki ke haʻu ʻa ʻEpalahame, pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e hā eni kuo ke fai kiate kimautolu? Pea ko e hā ha kovi naʻaku fai kiate koe, ke ke ʻomi ai kiate au mo hoku puleʻanga ʻae hala lahi ni? Kuo ke fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa kiate au ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai lelei ke fai.”
10 So Abimelech said vnto Abraham, What sawest thou that thou hast done this thing?
Pea fehuʻi ʻe ʻApimeleki kia ʻEpalahame ʻo ne pehē, ‘Ko e hā ʻae meʻa naʻe hā kiate koe, koeʻuhi ke ke fai ai ʻae meʻa ni?’
11 Then Abraham answered, Because I thought thus, Surely the feare of God is not in this place, and they will slay me for my wiues sake.
Pea talaange ʻe ʻEpalahame, “Naʻaku pehē ʻi hoku loto, Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ʻikai ʻi he potu ni, ʻae manavahē ki he ʻOtua; pea te nau tāmateʻi au, koeʻuhi ko hoku uaifi.
12 Yet in very deede she is my sister: for she is the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother, and she is my wife.
Ka ko e moʻoni pe ko hoku tuofefine ia: he ko e ʻofefine ia ʻo ʻeku tamai, ka ʻoku ʻikai ko e tama ʻa ʻeku faʻē ʻaʻaku pea naʻe hoko ia ko hoku uaifi.
13 Nowe when God caused me to wander out of my fathers house, I said then to her, This is thy kindnes that thou shalt shewe vnto me in all places where we come, Say thou of me, He is my brother.
Pea ʻi he fakahēʻi au ʻe he ʻOtua mei he fale ʻo ʻeku tamai, naʻaku pehē kiate ia, Ko hoʻo ʻofa eni, te ke fakahā kiate au; ʻi he potu kotoa pē te ta hoko ki ai, te ke fakahā au, ʻo pehē, Ko hoku tuongaʻane ia.”
14 Then tooke Abimelech sheepe and beeues, and men seruants, and women seruants, and gaue them vnto Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife.
Pea toʻo ʻe ʻApimeleki ʻae fanga sipi, mo e fanga pulu, mo e kau tamaioʻeiki, mo e kau kaunanga ʻo ne foaki ʻakinautolu kia ʻEpalahame, mo ne toe atu kiate ia ʻa Sela ko hono uaifi.
15 And Abimelech saide, Beholde, my land is before thee: dwell where it pleaseth thee.
Pea pehēange ʻe ʻApimeleki, “Vakai, ʻoku ʻi ho ʻao hoku fonua kotoa pē; faʻiteliha ko e hā potu te ke nofo ki ai.”
16 Likewise to Sarah he said, Beholde, I haue giuen thy brother a thousand pieces of siluer: behold, he is the vaile of thine eyes to all that are with thee, and to all others: and she was thus reproued.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kia Sela, “Vakai, kuo u foaki ki ho tuongaʻane ʻae [konga ]siliva ʻe afe: vakai ʻoku ʻiate koe ia, ko e pūlou ki ho mata kiate kinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiate koe mo e [kakai ]kotoa pē naʻe pehē ʻa hono valokia ia.”
17 Then Abraham prayed vnto God, and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his women seruants: and they bare children.
Pea lotu ʻa ʻEpalahame ki he ʻOtua pea fakamoʻui ʻe he ʻOtua ʻa ʻApimeleki, mo hono uaifi, mo ʻene kau kaunanga; pea naʻa nau fanafanau.
18 For the Lord had shut vp euery wombe of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abrahams wife.
He ne kuo pupuni ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae manāva kotoa pē ʻi he fale ʻo ʻApimeleki, koeʻuhi ko Sela, ko e uaifi ʻo ʻEpalahame.
