< Genesis 21 >

1 And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did unto Sarah as he had spoken.
Gospod je obiskal Saro, kakor je rekel in Gospod je Sari storil, kakor je govoril.
2 For Sarah conceived, and bare Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
Kajti Sara je spočela in Abrahamu rodila sina v njegovi visoki starosti, ob določenem času, o katerem mu je govoril Bog.
3 And Abraham called the name of his son that was born unto him, whom Sarah bare to him, Isaac.
Abraham je ime svojega sina, ki se mu je rodil, ki mu ga je rodila Sara, imenoval Izak.
4 And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac being eight days old, as God had commanded him.
Abraham je obrezal svojega sina Izaka, ko je bil star osem dni, kakor mu je zapovedal Bog.
5 And Abraham was an hundred years old, when his son Isaac was born unto him.
Abraham je bil star sto let, ko se mu je rodil sin Izak.
6 And Sarah said, God hath made me to laugh, [so that] all that hear will laugh with me.
Sara je rekla: »Bog me je pripravil, da se smejem, tako da se bodo vsi, ki slišijo, smejali z menoj.«
7 And she said, Who would have said unto Abraham, that Sarah should have given children suck? for I have born [him] a son in his old age.
Rekla je: »Kdo bi rekel Abrahamu, da bo Sara dojila otroke? Kajti rodila sem mu sina v njegovi visoki starosti.«
8 And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast the [same] day that Isaac was weaned.
Otrok je rasel in bil odstavljen in Abraham je tega istega dne, ko je bil Izak odstavljen, priredil veliko praznovanje.
9 And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had born unto Abraham, mocking.
In Sara je videla sina Egipčanke Hagáre, ki ga je rodila Abrahamu, posmehovati se.
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.
Zato je rekla Abrahamu: »Spôdi to sužnjo in njenega sina, kajti sin te sužnje ne bo dedič z mojim sinom Izakom.«
11 And the thing was very grievous in Abraham’s sight because of his son.
Stvar zaradi njegovega sina pa je bila v Abrahamovih očeh zelo boleča.
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 hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
Bog je Abrahamu rekel: »Naj to ne bo boleče v tvojem pogledu zaradi dečka in zaradi tvoje sužnje. V vsem tem, kar ti je Sara rekla, prisluhni njenemu glasu, kajti po Izaku se bo imenovalo tvoje potomstvo.
13 And also of the son of the bondwoman will I make a nation, because he [is] thy seed.
In tudi iz sina sužnje bom naredil narod, ker je tvoje seme.«
14 And Abraham rose 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 wandered in the wilderness of Beer-sheba.
Abraham je vstal zgodaj zjutraj, vzel kruh in meh vode, dal to Hagári, namestil to na njeno ramo in otroka in jo poslal proč in odpravila se je in tavala po beeršébski divjini.
15 And the water was spent in the bottle, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.
Voda v mehu je bila porabljena in otroka je odvrgla pod enega izmed grmov.
16 And she went, and sat her down over against [him] a good way off, as it were a bowshot: for she said, Let me not see the death of the child. And she sat over against [him], and lift up her voice, and wept.
Odšla je in se mu usedla nasproti, dobro pot proč, kakor bi bil streljaj loka, kajti rekla je: »Naj ne vidim otrokove smrti.« In sedela je nasproti njemu in povzdignila svoj glas ter zajokala.
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].
Bog je slišal dečkov glas in Božji angel je bil poklican iz nebes k Hagári ter ji rekel: »Kaj te pesti, Hagára? Ne boj se, kajti Bog je slišal dečkov glas, kjer je.
18 Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thine hand; for I will make him a great nation.
Vstani, dvigni svojega dečka in ga drži v svoji roki, kajti naredil ga bom [v] velik narod.«
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.
Bog je odprl njene oči in zagledala je vodni izvir in odšla je in meh napolnila z vodo ter dečku dala piti.
20 And God was with the lad; and he grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer.
Bog je bil z dečkom in ta je rasel, prebival v divjini in postal lokostrelec.
21 And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran: and his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt.
Prebival je v Paránski divjini in njegova mati mu je vzela ženo iz egiptovske dežele.
22 And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech and Phichol the chief captain of his host spake unto Abraham, saying, God [is] with thee in all that thou doest:
Ob tistem času se je pripetilo, da sta Abiméleh in Pihól, vrhovni poveljnik njegove vojske, govorila Abrahamu, rekoč: »Bog je s teboj v vsem, kar počneš.
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.
Zdaj mi torej tukaj pri Bogu prisezi, da z menoj ne boš ravnal napačno niti z mojim sinom niti s sinovi mojih sinov, temveč glede na prijaznost, ki sem jo storil tebi, boš ti storil meni in deželi, v kateri se mudiš.«
24 And Abraham said, I will swear.
Abraham je rekel: »Prisegel bom.«
25 And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of a well of water, which Abimelech’s servants had violently taken away.
Abraham pa je grajal Abiméleha zaradi vodnega izvira, ki so ga Abimélehovi služabniki nasilno odvzeli.
26 And Abimelech said, I wot not who hath done this thing: neither didst thou tell me, neither yet heard I [of it], but to day.
Abiméleh je rekel: »Ne vem, kdo je storil to stvar, niti mi ti nisi povedal, niti do danes nisem slišal o tem.«
27 And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them unto Abimelech; and both of them made a covenant.
Abraham je vzel ovce in vole ter jih dal Abimélehu in oba sta sklenila zavezo.
28 And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
Abraham je sedem jagnjic iz tropa postavil posebej.
29 And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What [mean] these seven ewe lambs which thou hast set by themselves?
Abiméleh je rekel Abrahamu: »Kaj pomeni teh sedem jagnjic, ki si jih postavil posebej?«
30 And he said, For [these] seven ewe lambs shalt thou take of my hand, that they may be a witness unto me, that I have digged this well.
Rekel je: »Kajti teh sedem jagnjic boš vzel iz moje roke, da mi bodo lahko priča, da sem jaz izkopal ta vodnjak.«
31 Wherefore he called that place Beer-sheba; because there they sware both of them.
Zato je ta kraj imenoval Beeršéba, ker sta tam oba prisegla.
32 Thus they made a covenant at Beer-sheba: then Abimelech rose up, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
Tako sta sklenila zavezo pri Beeršébi. Potem je Abiméleh vstal in Pihól, vrhovni poveljnik njegove vojske in vrnila sta se v deželo Filistejcev.
33 And [Abraham] planted a grove in Beer-sheba, and called there on the name of the LORD, the everlasting God.
Abraham je v Beeršébi zasadil nasad ter tam klical ime Gospoda, večnega Boga.
34 And Abraham sojourned in the Philistines’ land many days.
In Abraham je mnogo dni začasno prebival v filistejski deželi.
