Genesis 21
1 And the LORD remembered Sarah as He had said, and the LORD did unto Sarah as He had spoken.
| وَافْتَقَدَ الرَّبُّ سَارَةَ كَمَا قَالَ، وَأَنْجَزَ لَهَا مَا وَعَدَ بِهِ. | ١ |
2 And Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
| فَحَبِلَتْ سَارَةُ وَوَلَدَتْ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ فِي شَيْخُوخَتِهِ ابْناً، فِي الْوَقْتِ الَّذِي عَيَّنَهُ اللهُ لَهُ. | ٢ |
3 And Abraham called the name of his son that was born unto him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.
| فَدَعَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ ابْنَهُ الَّذِي أَنْجَبَتْهُ لَهُ سَارَةُ «إِسْحاقَ». | ٣ |
4 And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.
| وَخَتَنَهُ فِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّامِنِ بِمُوجِبِ أَمْرِ اللهِ. | ٤ |
5 And Abraham was a hundred years old, when his son Isaac was born unto him.
| وَكَانَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ قَدْ بَلَغَ الْمِئَةَ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ عِنْدَمَا وُلِدَ لَهُ إِسْحاقُ. | ٥ |
6 And Sarah said: 'God hath made laughter for me; every one that heareth will laugh on account of me.'
| وَقَالَتْ سَارَةُ «لَقَدْ أَضْحَكَنِي الرَّبُّ. كُلُّ مَنْ يَسْمَعُ هَذَا الأَمْرَ يَضْحَكُ مَعِي». | ٦ |
7 And she said: 'Who would have said unto Abraham, that Sarah should give children suck? for I have borne him a son in his old age.'
| وَأَضَافَتْ أَيْضاً: «مَنْ كَانَ يُمْكِنُ أَنْ يَقُولَ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ إِنَّ سَارَةَ سَتُرْضِعُ بَنِينَ؟ فَهَا أَنَا قَدْ أَنْجَبْتُ لَهُ ابْناً فِي شَيْخُوخَتِهِ». | ٧ |
8 And the child grew, and was weaned. And Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned.
| وَكَبُرَ إِسْحاقُ وَفُطِمَ. فَأَقَامَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فِي يَوْمِ فِطَامِهِ مَأْدُبَةً عَظِيمَةً. | ٨ |
9 And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne unto Abraham, making sport.
| وَرَأَتْ سَارَةُ أَنَّ ابْنَ هَاجَرَ الْمِصْرِيَّةِ الَّذِي أَنْجَبَتْهُ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ يَسْخَرُ مِنِ ابْنِهَا إِسْحاقَ، | ٩ |
10 Wherefore she said unto Abraham: 'Cast out this bondwoman and her son; for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac.'
| فَقَالَتْ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ: «اطْرُدْ هَذِهِ الْجَارِيَةَ وَابْنَهَا، فَإِنَّ ابْنَ الْجَارِيَةِ لَنْ يَرِثَ مَعَ ابْنِي إِسْحاقَ». | ١٠ |
11 And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight on account of his son.
| فَقَبُحَ هَذَا الْقَوْلُ فِي نَفْسِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ مِنْ أَجْلِ ابْنِهِ. | ١١ |
12 And God said unto Abraham: 'Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman; in all that Sarah saith unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall seed be called to thee.
| فَقَال اللهُ لَهُ: «لا يَسُوءُ فِي نَفْسِكَ أَمْرُ الصَّبِيِّ أَوْ أَمْرُ جَارِيَتِكَ، وَاسْمَعْ لِكَلامِ سَارَةَ فِي كُلِّ مَا تُشِيرُ بِهِ عَلَيْكَ لأَنَّهُ بِإِسْحاقَ يُدْعَى لَكَ نَسْلٌ. | ١٢ |
13 And also of the son of the bondwoman will I make a nation, because he is thy seed.'
| وَسَأُقِيمُ مِنِ ابْنِ الْجَارِيَةِ أُمَّةً أَيْضاً لأَنَّهُ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِكَ». | ١٣ |
14 And Abraham arose up early in the morning, and took bread and a bottle of water, and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and the child, and sent her away; and she departed, and strayed in the wilderness of Beer-sheba.
| فَنَهَضَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فِي الصَّبَاحِ الْبَاكِرِ وَأَخَذَ خُبْزاً وَقِرْبَةَ مَاءٍ وَدَفَعَهُمَا إِلَى هَاجَرَ، وَوَضَعَهُمَا عَلَى كَتِفَيْهَا، ثُمَّ صَرَفَهَا مَعَ الصَّبِيِّ. فَهَامَتْ عَلَى وَجْهِهَا فِي بَرِّيَّةِ بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ. | ١٤ |
15 And the water in the bottle was spent, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.
| وَعِنْدَمَا فَرَغَ الْمَاءُ مِنَ الْقِرْبَةِ طَرَحَتِ الصَّبِيَّ تَحْتَ إِحْدَى الأَشْجَارِ، | ١٥ |
16 And she went, and sat her down over against him a good way off, as it were a bow-shot; for she said: 'Let me not look upon the death of the child.' And she sat over against him, and lifted up her voice, and wept.
| وَمَضَتْ وَجَلَسَتْ مُقَابِلَهُ، عَلَى بُعْدِ نَحْوِ مِئَةِ مِتْرٍ، لأَنَّهَا قَالَتْ: «لا أَشْهَدُ مَوْتَ الصَّبِيِّ». فَجَلَسَتْ مُقَابِلَهُ وَرَفَعَتْ صَوْتَهَا وَبَكَتْ. | ١٦ |
17 And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her: 'What aileth thee, Hagar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the lad where he is.
| وَسَمِعَ اللهُ بُكَاءَ الصَّبِيِّ، فَنَادَى مَلاكُ اللهِ هَاجَرَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ وَقَالَ لَهَا: «مَا الَّذِي يُزْعِجُكِ يَا هَاجَرُ؟ لَا تَخَافِي، لأَنَّ اللهَ قَدْ سَمِعَ بُكَاءَ الصَّبِيِّ مِنْ حَيْثُ هُوَ مُلْقىً. | ١٧ |
18 Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him fast by thy hand; for I will make him a great nation.'
| قُومِي وَاحْمِلِي الصَّبِيَّ، وَتَشَبَّثِي بِهِ لأَنَّنِي سَأَجْعَلُهُ أُمَّةً عَظِيمَةً». | ١٨ |
19 And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water; and she went, and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad drink.
| ثُمَّ فَتَحَ عَيْنَيْهَا فَأَبْصَرَتْ بِئْرَ مَاءٍ، فَذَهَبَتْ وَمَلأَتِ الْقِرْبَةَ وَسَقَتِ الصَّبِيَّ. | ١٩ |
20 And God was with the lad, and he grew; and he dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer.
| وَكَانَ اللهُ مَعَ الصَّبِيِّ فَكَبُرَ، وَسَكَنَ فِي صَحْرَاءِ فَارَانَ، وَبَرَعَ فِي رَمْيِ الْقَوْسِ. | ٢٠ |
21 And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran; and his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt.
| وَاتَّخَذَتْ لَهُ أُمُّهُ زَوْجَةً مِنْ مِصْرَ. | ٢١ |
22 And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his host spoke unto Abraham, saying: 'God is with thee in all that thou doest.
| وَفِي ذَلِكَ الزَّمَانِ خَاطَبَ أَبِيمَالِكُ وَفِيكُولُ قَائِدُ جَيْشِهِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَائِلَيْنِ: «إِنَّ اللهَ مَعَكَ فِي كُلِّ مَا تَقُومُ بِهِ، | ٢٢ |
23 Now therefore swear unto me here by God that thou wilt not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son; but according to the kindness that I have done unto thee, thou shalt do unto me, and to the land wherein thou hast sojourned.'
| فَاحْلِفْ لِي الآنَ بِاللهِ أَنْ لَا تَغْدُرَ بِي وَلا بِنَسْلِي وَذُرِّيَّتِي، بَلْ تُحْسِنَ إِلَيَّ وَإِلَى شَعْبِي الَّذِي تَغَرَّبْتَ بَيْنَهُ، كَمَا أَحْسَنْتُ إِلَيْكَ». | ٢٣ |
24 And Abraham said: 'I will swear.'
| فَقَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ: «أَحْلِفُ». | ٢٤ |
25 And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of the well of water, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.
| وَعَاتَبَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ أَبِيمَالِكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ الْبِئْرِ الَّتِي اغْتَصَبَهَا عَبِيدُ أَبِيمَالِكَ، | ٢٥ |
26 And Abimelech said: 'I know not who hath done this thing; neither didst thou tell me, neither yet heard I of it, but to-day.'
| فَقَالَ أَبِيمَالِكُ: «لَسْتُ أَعْلَمُ مَنِ ارْتَكَبَ هَذَا الأَمْرَ، وَأَنْتَ لَمْ تُخْبِرْنِي بِهِ، وَلَمْ أَسْمَعْ عَنْهُ سِوَى الْيَوْمِ». | ٢٦ |
27 And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them unto Abimelech; and they two made a covenant.
| ثُمَّ أَعْطَى إِبْرَاهِيمُ أَبِيمَالِكَ غَنَماً وَبَقَراً وَقَطَعَ كِلاهُمَا عَهْداً. | ٢٧ |
28 And Abraham set seven ewe-lambs of the flock by themselves.
| وَفَرَزَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ سَبْعَ نِعَاجٍ مِنَ الْغَنَمِ وَحْدَهَا. | ٢٨ |
29 And Abimelech said unto Abraham: 'What mean these seven ewe-lambs which thou hast set by themselves?'
| فَقَالَ أَبِيمَالِكُ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ: «مَاذَا تَقْصِدُ بِهَذِهِ النِّعَاجِ السَّبْعِ الَّتِي فَرَزْتَهَا جَانِباً؟» | ٢٩ |
30 And he said: 'Verily, these seven ewe-lambs shalt thou take of my hand, that it may be a witness unto me, that I have digged this well.'
| فَأَجَابَ: «هِيَ سَبْعُ نِعَاجٍ أُقَدِّمُهَا لَكَ بِيَدِي شَهَادَةً لِي أَنَّنِي حَفَرْتُ هَذِهِ الْبِئْرَ». | ٣٠ |
31 Wherefore that place was called Beer-sheba; because there they swore both of them.
| لِذَلِكَ دَعَا ذَلِكَ الْمَكَانَ بِئْرَ سَبْعٍ (وَمَعْنَاهْ بِئْرُ الْحَلْفِ) لأَنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَأَبِيمَالِكَ كِلاهُمَا حَلَفَا هُنَاكَ. | ٣١ |
32 So they made a covenant at Beer-sheba; and Abimelech rose up, and Phicol the captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
| وَهَكَذَا قَطَعَا عَهْداً فِي بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ، ثُمَّ نَهَضَ أَبِيمَالِكُ وَفِيكُولُ رَئِيسُ جَيْشِهِ وَرَجَعَا إِلَى أَرْضِ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ. | ٣٢ |
33 And Abraham planted a tamarisk-tree in Beer-sheba, and called there on the name of the LORD, the Everlasting God.
| وَغَرَسَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ شَجَرَ أَثْلٍ فِي بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ، وَدَعَا هُنَاكَ بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ الإِلَهِ السَّرْمَدِيِّ | ٣٣ |
34 And Abraham sojourned in the land of the Philistines many days.
| وَمَكَثَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فِي بِلادِ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ فَتْرَةً طَوِيلَةً. | ٣٤ |
