< Genesis 26 >

1 And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to Abimelech king of the Philistines to Gerar.
Ie amy zao nikerè ty tane, nandimbe i hasalikoañe nifetsake tañandro’ i Avrahamey. Le noly mb’e Gerare mb’ amy Abimèleke nte-Pilisty mb’eo t’Ietsàke.
2 And the LORD appeared to him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell you of:
Ie amy zao, nisodehañe am’ Ietsàke t’Iehovà nanao ty hoe, Ko mitaveam-b’e Mitsraime añe; fa mitobea an-tane hatoroko azo.
3 Sojourn in this land, and I will be with you, and will bless you; for to you, and to your seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I swore to Abraham your father;
Mimo­neña an-tane atoy, le himbaeko vaho ho tahieko; amy te hatoloko azo naho amo tarira’o iabio o tane retoañe; le ho henefeko ty fanta nifantàko amy Avrahame rae’o.
4 And I will make your seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give to your seed all these countries; and in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;
Hampiraeko amo vasian-dikerañeo o tarira’oo naho hatoloko amo tarira’oo o hene tane toañeo vaho amo tarira’oo ty hitahiañe ze hene foko an-tane atoy
5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.
amy te nihaoñe’ i Avrahame ty feoko le nitambozore’e i namantohakoy, o fepèkoo, o fañekoo vaho o Fanoroakoo.
6 And Isaac dwelled in Gerar:
Aa le nitoetse e Gerare ao t’Ietsàke.
7 And the men of the place asked him of his wife; and he said, She is my sister: for he feared to say, She is my wife; lest, said he, the men of the place should kill me for Rebekah; because she was fair to look on.
Ie nañontane i vali’ey ondati’ i rovaio, le hoe re, Rahavaveko toke, amy t’ie nihembañe tsy te hanao ty hoe, Valiko, fa natao’e te hañe-doza ama’e ondatio, ty amy hamontramontra’ i Ribkae.
8 And it came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked out at a window, and saw, and, behold, Isaac was sporting with Rebekah his wife.
Ie tambatse ela ao t’Ietsàke le nitilihitse ami’ty lalan-kede t’i Abimeleke mpanjaka’ o nte-Pelistio: niisa’e te heheke nitsapa­tsapa i Ribkae vali’e t’Ietsàke.
9 And Abimelech called Isaac, and said, Behold, of a surety she is your wife; and how said you, She is my sister? And Isaac said to him, Because I said, Lest I die for her.
Aa le nampikanjie’ i Abimeleke t’Ietsàke vaho nanoa’e ty hoe, Toe vali’o re! Ino ty nanoe’o ty hoe Rahavaveko? Hoe t’Ietsàke tama’e, Nataoko hera hikenkañe ty ama’e iraho.
10 And Abimelech said, What is this you have done to us? one of the people might lightly have lien with your wife, and you should have brought guiltiness on us.
Hoe ty Abimeleke, Inoñe arè ty nanoe’o ama’ay? Kera niolots’ amy vali’oy t’indaty le ho nañakeo anay irehe.
11 And Abimelech charged all his people, saying, He that touches this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.
Aa le hinatahata’ i Abimeleke ondati’e iabio ami’ty hoe, Toe havetrake ze mitsapa t’indaty toy ndra i vali’ey.
12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundred times: and the LORD blessed him.
Nitongy amy taney t’Ietsàke le nanatake in-jato amy taoñey avao, amy te nitahie’ Iehovà,
13 And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great:
vaho niha-mpañarivo indatiy le mbe nionjoñe avao ty firaoraoa’e ampara’ te nimpañaleale.
14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him.
Ie amam-pirai-lia naho mpirai-troke vaho tsiefa o pitoro’eo, le nikirañe aze o nte-Pilistio.
15 For all the wells which his father’s servants had dig in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped them, and filled them with earth.
Aa le finempe’ o nte-Pilistio naho linembeke tane o vovoñe hinali’ o mpitoron-drae’eo tañandro’ i Avrahameo.
16 And Abimelech said to Isaac, Go from us; for you are much mightier than we.
Le hoe t’i Abimelek’ am’Ietsàke, Misi­taha, fa loho maozatse te ama’ay irehe.
17 And Isaac departed there, and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar, and dwelled there.
Aa le nienga boak’ao t’Ietsàke naho nitobe am-bavatane’ i Gerare vaho nitoetse eo;
18 And Isaac dig again the wells of water, which they had dig in the days of Abraham his father; for the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham: and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them.
le sino­ka’ Ietsàke indraike o vovon-drano niha­li­eñe tañandro’ i Avrahame rae’eo, o linembe’ o nte-Pilisty iabio naho fa nihomake t’i Avrahame; vaho nitokave’e amo añarañe nitokavan-drae’e.
19 And Isaac’s servants dig in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.
Le nihaly amy vavataney o mpitoro’ Ietsàkeo le nanjo vovoñe nigoangoan-drano.
20 And the herdsmen of Gerar did strive with Isaac’s herdsmen, saying, The water is ours: and he called the name of the well Esek; because they strove with him.
Fe nifandietse amo mpiara’ Ietsàkeo o mpiarake nte-Gerareo ami’ty hoe, Anay o ranoo, le natao’e ty hoe Eseke i vovoñey kanao nifandiera’ iereo.
21 And they dig another well, and strove for that also: and he called the name of it Sitnah.
Nihaly vovoñe ­indraike iereo vaho nifanjomorañe ka, aa le nitokave’e Sitnà.
22 And he removed from there, and dig another well; and for that they strove not: and he called the name of it Rehoboth; and he said, For now the LORD has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.
Ie niveve mb’eo le nihaly vovoñe indraike, f’ie tsy am-pifanoiñe, le natao’e ty hoe Rehobota ami’ty hoe, Fa nañivake ho anay t’Iehovà le hiraorao an-tane atoy.
23 And he went up from there to Beersheba.
Boak’ ao re nionjoñe mb’e Beersevà mb’eo.
24 And the LORD appeared to him the same night, and said, I am the God of Abraham your father: fear not, for I am with you, and will bless you, and multiply your seed for my servant Abraham’s sake.
Le nisodehañe ama’e amy haleñey t’Iehovà nanao ty hoe, Izaho ro Andrianañahare’ i Avrahame rae’o; ko hemban-drehe fa ama’o Iraho le ho tahieko vaho hampitozantozañeko o tarira’oo ty amy Avrahame mpitorokoy.
25 And he built an altar there, and called on the name of the LORD, and pitched his tent there: and there Isaac’s servants dig a well.
Aa le nandrafetse kitrely eo naho nikanjy ty tahina’ Iehovà naho naore’e eo ty kiboho’e vaho nihaly vovoñe eo o mpitoro’ Ietsàkeo.
26 Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath one of his friends, and Phichol the chief captain of his army.
Nomb’ ama’e mb’eo amy zao t’i Abi­mèleke boake Gerare, miharo amy Ako­zàte mpanolo-keve’e naho i Pikole, mpifehe o lahindefo’eo.
27 And Isaac said to them, Why come you to me, seeing you hate me, and have sent me away from you?
Hoe t’Ietsak’ am’iereo, Inom-bao ty nomba’areo mb’ amako mb’etoa kanao malaiñe ahy, toe natao’ areo soike?
28 And they said, We saw certainly that the LORD was with you: and we said, Let there be now an oath between us, even between us and you, and let us make a covenant with you;
Hoe iereo, Trea’ay malange te ama’o t’Iehovà, le hoe zahay, Antao hifanitike, añivo’ay naho ihe, aa le iantofo te hifañina,
29 That you will do us no hurt, as we have not touched you, and as we have done to you nothing but good, and have sent you away in peace: you are now the blessed of the LORD.
soa te ihe tsy hijoy anay, hambañe amy te zahay tsy nitsapa azo, fa tsy ino ty nanoe’ay naho tsy ty soa, naho nampañaveloe’ay am-panintsiñañe; toe tahie’ Iehovà irehe henaneo.
30 And he made them a feast, and they did eat and drink.
Aa le nañalankaña’e sabadidake, le nikama naho ninoñe.
31 And they rose up betimes in the morning, and swore one to another: and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.
Nitroatse marain-tsikiake iereo le nifañina am-panta, naho na­sese’ Ietsàke mb’eo vaho nienga aze an-kanintsiñe.
32 And it came to pass the same day, that Isaac’s servants came, and told him concerning the well which they had dig, and said to him, We have found water.
Nitotsak’ ama’e amy àndroy ka ty mpitoro’ Iets­ake nita­lily i vovoñe hinali’ iereo anianiy, ty hoe, Nahatrea rano zahay!
33 And he called it Shebah: therefore the name of the city is Beersheba to this day.
Natao’e Sivà ty añara’e; aa le Beer-Sevà ty añara’ i rovay henaneo.
34 And Esau was forty years old when he took to wife Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite:
Ie niefapolo taoñe t’i Esave, le nañenga Iehoditè ana’ i Bierý nte-Khete, naho i Basmàte ana’ i Elòne nte-Khete;
35 Which were a grief of mind to Isaac and to Rebekah.
f’ie nampioremeñe ty arofo’ Ietsàke naho i Ribkae.
