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 unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar.
| وَحَدَثَ فِي الأَرْضِ جُوعٌ غَيْرُ الْجُوعِ الأَوَّلِ الَّذِي كَانَ فِي أَيَّامِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، فَارْتَحَلَ إِسْحاقُ إِلَى مَدِينَةِ جَرَارَ حَيْثُ أَبِيمَالِكُ مَلِكُ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ. | ١ |
2 And the LORD appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of:
| فَظَهَرَ لَهُ الرَّبُّ قَائِلاً: «لا تَمْضِ إِلَى مِصْرَ، بَلُ امْكُثْ فِي الأَرْضِ الَّتِي أُعَيِّنُهَا لَكَ. | ٢ |
3 Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father;
| أَقِمْ فِي هَذِهِ الأَرْضِ فَأَكُونَ مَعَكَ وَأُبَارِكَكَ، لأَنَّنِي أُعْطِي لَكَ وَلِذُرِّيَّتِكَ جَمِيعَ هَذِهِ الأَرْضِ وَفَاءً بِقَسَمِي الَّذِي أَقْسَمْتُ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ أَبِيكَ. | ٣ |
4 And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;
| وَأُكَثِّرُ ذُرِّيَّتَكَ كَنُجُومِ السَّمَاءِ وَأَهِبُهَا جَمِيعَ هَذِهِ الْبِلادِ. وَتَتَبَارَكُ فِي نَسْلِكَ جَمِيعُ أُمَمِ الأَرْضِ. | ٤ |
5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.
| لأَنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَطَاعَ قَوْلِي، وَحَفِظَ أَوَامِرِي وَوَصَايَايَ وَفَرَائِضِي وَشَرَائِعِي». | ٥ |
6 And Isaac dwelt in Gerar:
| فَأَقَامَ إِسْحاقُ فِي مَدِينَةِ جَرَارَ. | ٦ |
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 upon.
| وَعِنْدَمَا سَأَلَهُ أَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ عَنْ زَوْجَتِهِ قَالَ: «هِيَ أُخْتِي» لأَنَّهُ خَافَ أَنْ يَقُولَ: «هِيَ زَوْجَتِي» لِئَلّا يَقْتُلَهُ أَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ مِنْ أَجْلِ رِفْقَةَ، لأَنَّهَا كَانَتْ رَائِعَةَ الْجَمَالِ. | ٧ |
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.
| وَحَدَثَ بَعْدَ أَنْ طَالَ مُكُوثُهُ هُنَاكَ، أَنَّ أَبِيمَالِكَ مَلِكَ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ أَطَلَّ مِنَ النَّافِذَةِ، فَشَاهَدَ إِسْحاقَ يُدَاعِبُ امْرَأَتَهُ رِفْقَةَ. | ٨ |
9 And Abimelech called Isaac, and said, Behold, of a surety she [is] thy wife: and how saidst thou, She [is] my sister? And Isaac said unto him, Because I said, Lest I die for her.
| فَاسْتَدْعَاهُ إِلَيْهِ وَقَالَ: «إِنَّهَا بِالْحَقِيقَةِ زَوْجَتُكَ، فَكَيْفَ قُلْتَ هِيَ أُخْتِي؟» فَأَجَابَ إِسْحاقُ: «لأَنِّي قُلْتُ: لَعَلِّي أُقْتَلُ بِسَبَبِهَا». | ٩ |
10 And Abimelech said, What [is] this thou hast done unto us? one of the people might lightly have lien with thy wife, and thou shouldest have brought guiltiness upon us.
| فَقَالَ أَبِيمَالِكُ: «مَا هَذَا الَّذِي فَعَلْتَ بِنَا؟ لَقَدْ كَانَ يَسِيراً عَلَى أَيِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنَ الشَّعْبِ أَنْ يَضْطَجِعَ مَعَ زَوْجَتِكَ فَتَجْلِبُ بِذَلِكَ عَلَيْنَا إِثْماً». | ١٠ |
11 And Abimelech charged all [his] people, saying, He that toucheth this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.
| وَأَنْذَرَ أَبِيمَالِكُ كُلَّ الشَّعْبِ قَائِلاً: «كُلُّ مَنْ يَمَسُّ هَذَا الرَّجُلَ أَوْ زَوْجَتَهُ فَحَتْماً يَمُوتُ». | ١١ |
12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him.
| وَزَرَعَ إِسْحاقُ فِي تِلْكَ الأَرْضِ، فَحَصَدَ فِي تِلْكَ السَّنَةِ مِئَةَ ضِعْفٍ لأَنَّ اللهَ بَارَكَهُ. | ١٢ |
13 And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great:
| وَعَظُمَ شَأْنُ الرَّجُلِ، وَتَزَايَدَ غِنَاهُ وَأَصْبَحَ وَاسِعَ الثَّرَاءِ وَالنُّفُوذِ. | ١٣ |
14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him.
| وَصَارَتْ لَهُ مَاشِيَةٌ، غَنَمٌ وَقُطْعَانُ بَقَرٍ وَعَبِيدٌ كَثِيرُونَ. فَحَسَدَهُ الْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ. | ١٤ |
15 For all the wells which his father’s servants had digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped them, and filled them with earth.
| وَرَدَمَ الْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ بِالتُّرَابِ جَمِيعَ الآبَارِ الَّتِي حَفَرَهَا عَبِيدُ أَبِيهِ فِي أَيَّامِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ. | ١٥ |
16 And Abimelech said unto Isaac, Go from us; for thou art much mightier than we.
| وَقَالَ أَبِيمَالِكُ لإِسْحاقَ: «ارْحَلْ عَنَّا لأَنَّكَ أَصْبَحْتَ أَكْثَرَ قُوَّةً مِنَّا». | ١٦ |
17 And Isaac departed thence, and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.
| فَانْصَرَفَ إِسْحاقُ مِنْ هُنَاكَ وَضَرَبَ خِيَامَهُ فِي وَادِي جَرَارَ حَيْثُ أَقَامَ. | ١٧ |
18 And Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged 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.
| وَأَعَادَ إِسْحاقُ حَفْرَ آبَارِ الْمِيَاهِ الَّتِي كَانَ قَدْ تَمَّ حَفْرُهَا فِي أَيَّامِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَرَدَمَهَا الْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِ أَبِيهِ، وَدَعَاهَا بِالأَسْمَاءِ الَّتِي أَطْلَقَهَا عَلَيْهَا أَبُوهُ. | ١٨ |
19 And Isaac’s servants digged in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.
| وَعِنْدَمَا حَفَرَ عَبِيدُ إِسْحاقَ فِي الْوَادِي وَعَثَرُوا عَلَى بِئْرِ مَاءٍ جَارٍ، | ١٩ |
20 And the herdmen of Gerar did strive with Isaac’s herdmen, saying, The water [is] ours: and he called the name of the well Esek; because they strove with him.
| خَاصَمَ رُعَاةُ مَدِينَةِ جَرَارَ رُعَاةَ إِسْحاقَ قَائِلِينَ: «هَذَا الْمَاءُ لَنَا». فَدَعَا الْبِئْرَ «عِسِقَ» لأَنَّهُمْ نَازَعُوهُ عَلَيْهَا. | ٢٠ |
21 And they digged another well, and strove for that also: and he called the name of it Sitnah.
| ثُمَّ حَفَرُوا بِئْراً أُخْرَى وَتَخَاصَمُوا عَلَيْهَا، فَدَعَاهَا «سِطْنَةَ» (وَمَعْنَاهَا عَدَاوَةٌ). | ٢١ |
22 And he removed from thence, and digged another well; and for that they strove not: and he called the name of it Rehoboth; and he said, For now the LORD hath made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.
| وَانْتَقَلَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ وَحَفَرَ بِئْراً أُخْرَى وَلَمْ يَتَنَازَعُوا عَلَيْهَا، فَدَعَا اسْمَهَا «رَحُوبُوتَ» (وَمَعْنَاهَا الأَمَاكِنُ الرَّحْبَةُ) قَائِلاً: «لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدْ أَرْحَبَ الآنَ لَنَا وَأَثْمَرْنَا فِي الأَرْضِ». | ٢٢ |
23 And he went up from thence to Beer-sheba.
| ثُمَّ مَضَى مِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ. | ٢٣ |
24 And the LORD appeared unto him the same night, and said, I [am] the God of Abraham thy father: fear not, for I [am] with thee, and will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham’s sake.
| فَتَجَلَّى لَهُ الرَّبُّ فِي تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةِ وَقَالَ: «أَنَا هُوَ إِلَهُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَبِيكَ. لَا تَخَفْ لأَنِّي مَعَكَ وَأُبَارِكُكَ وَأُكَثِّرُ ذُرِّيَّتَكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ عَبْدِي إِبْرَاهِيمَ». | ٢٤ |
25 And he builded an altar there, and called upon the name of the LORD, and pitched his tent there: and there Isaac’s servants digged a well.
| فَشَيَّدَ إِسْحاقُ هُنَاكَ مَذْبَحاً وَدَعَا بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ، ثُمَّ نَصَبَ هُنَاكَ خَيْمَتَهُ، وَحَفَرَ عَبِيدُهُ بِئْراً. | ٢٥ |
26 Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath one of his friends, and Phichol the chief captain of his army.
| وَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ مَدِينَةِ جَرَارَ أَبِيمَالِكُ وَأَحُزَّاتُ مُسْتَشَارُهُ، وَفِيكُولُ رَئِيسُ جَيْشِهِ. | ٢٦ |
27 And Isaac said unto them, Wherefore come ye to me, seeing ye hate me, and have sent me away from you?
| فَقَالَ لَهُمْ إِسْحاقُ: «مَا بَالُكُمْ قَدْ أَتَيْتُمْ إِلَيَّ، وَأَنْتُمْ قَدْ أَبْغَضْتُمُونِي وَصَرَفْتُمُونِي مِنْ عِنْدِكُمْ؟» | ٢٧ |
28 And they said, We saw certainly that the LORD was with thee: and we said, Let there be now an oath betwixt us, [even] betwixt us and thee, and let us make a covenant with thee;
| فَأَجَابُوهُ: «لَقَدْ تَبَيَّنَ لَنَا أَنَّ الرَّبَّ مَعَكَ، فَقُلْنَا: لِيَكُنْ بَيْنَنَا حَلْفٌ وَلْنَقْطَعْ مَعَكَ عَهْداً: | ٢٨ |
29 That thou wilt do us no hurt, as we have not touched thee, and as we have done unto thee nothing but good, and have sent thee away in peace: thou [art] now the blessed of the LORD.
| أَنْ لَا تُسِيءَ إِلَيْنَا كَمَا لَمْ نَمَسَّكَ بِشَرٍّ وَلَمْ يُصِبْكَ مِنَّا سِوَى الْخَيْرِ، ثُمَّ صَرَفْنَاكَ بِسَلامٍ. وَهَا أَنْتَ الآنَ مُبَارَكٌ مِنَ الرَّبِّ». | ٢٩ |
30 And he made them a feast, and they did eat and drink.
| فَأَقَامَ لَهُمْ مَأْدُبَةً فَأَكَلُوا وَشَرِبُوا. | ٣٠ |
31 And they rose up betimes in the morning, and sware one to another: and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.
| ثُمَّ بَكَّرُوا فِي الصَّبَاحِ وَحَلَفَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ، وَشَيَّعَهُمْ إِسْحاقُ فَانْصَرَفُوا بِسَلامٍ. | ٣١ |
32 And it came to pass the same day, that Isaac’s servants came, and told him concerning the well which they had digged, and said unto him, We have found water.
| وَفِي نَفْسِ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ جَاءَ عَبِيدُ إِسْحاقَ وَأَخْبَرُوهُ قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّنَا عَثَرْنَا عَلَى مَاءٍ فِي الْبِئْرِ الَّتِي حَفَرْنَاهَا». | ٣٢ |
33 And he called it Shebah: therefore the name of the city [is] Beer-sheba unto this day.
| فَدَعَاهَا شِبْعَةَ، لِذَلِكَ سُمِّيَتِ الْمَدِينَةُ بِئْرَ سَبْعٍ إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ. | ٣٣ |
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:
| وَلَمَّا بَلَغَ عِيسُو الأَرْبَعِينَ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ تَزَوَّجَ كُلًّا مِنْ يَهُودِيتَ بِنْتِ بِيرِي الْحِثِّيِّ، وَبَسْمَةَ بِنْتِ إِيلُونَ الْحِثِّيِّ. | ٣٤ |
35 Which were a grief of mind unto Isaac and to Rebekah.
| فَأَتْعَسَتَا حَيَاةَ إِسْحاقَ وَرِفْقَةَ. | ٣٥ |
