< Genesis 24 >
1 And Abraham [is] old, he has entered into days, and YHWH has blessed Abraham in all [things];
A: ibalaha: me da ode bagohame lai dagoiba: le, da: idafa ba: su. Be Hina Gode da ea hou huluane amo ganodini hahawane dogolegelewane fidilalusu.
2 and Abraham says to his servant, the eldest of his house, who is ruling over all that he has, “Please put your hand under my thigh,
E da ea da: i hamoi hawa: hamosu dunu (amo da ea liligi huluane ouligisu) ema amane sia: i, “Dia lobo amo na masele hagudu ligisili, dafawane ilegele sia: ma!
3 and I cause you to swear by YHWH, God of the heavens and God of the earth, that you do not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanite, in the midst of whom I am dwelling;
Na da agoane hanai galebe. Di da Hina Gode amo da Hebene Hina amola osobo bagade Hina, amo Ea Dioba: le gasa bagade sia: ma. Di da Ga: ina: ne fi (amo ganodini na da wali esala) amoga nagofe uda lama: ne mae ilegema.
4 but to my land and to my family you go, and have taken a wife for my son, for Isaac.”
Be na musa: fi sogega asili, na fidafa amo ganodini hogolalu, nagofe Aisage uda lama: ne, a:fini sia: sima!”
5 And the servant says to him, “It may be the woman is not willing to come after me to this land; do I at all cause your son to return to the land from where you came out?”
Ea hawa: hamosu dunu da bu adole ba: i, “Be amo uda da na amola bu sigi misunu hihi galea, na da adi hamoma: bela: ? Na da dia mano amo dia musa: sogega bu oule masa: bela: ?”
6 And Abraham says to him, “Take heed to yourself lest you cause my son to return there;
Be A: ibalaha: me da amane sia: i, “Hame mabu! Di amoga nagofe bu mae oule masa!
7 YHWH, God of the heavens, who has taken me from the house of my father, and from the land of my birth, and who has spoken to me, and who has sworn to me, saying, To your seed I give this land, He sends His messenger before you, and you have taken a wife for my son from there;
Hina Gode amo Hebene amoga Hina esala, e da na ada amo ea diasu amola na soge yolesili ga masa: ne sia: ne, nama gasawane amane sia: i, ‘Na da dafawane ilegele sia: sa! Na da amo soge (Ga: ina: ne) digaga fi ilima imunu.’ Amo Gode da Ea a: igele dunu dima bisimusa: asunasimu. Bai di da amo sogega nagofema ima: ne uda lamu defele ba: mu.
8 and if the woman is not willing to come after you, then you have been acquitted from this my oath: only you do not cause my son to return there.”
Be uda da di guiguda: oule misunu amo higasea, defea, dia da nama Gode Ea Dioba: le sia: i, amo na da bu hame dawa: mu. Be na mano maedafa bu oule masa.”
9 And the servant puts his hand under the thigh of Abraham his lord, and swears to him concerning this matter.
Amaiba: le, hawa: hamosu dunu da ea hina A: ibalaha: me amo ea masele hagudu ea lobo ligisili, Gode Ea Dioba: le gasa bagade amo liligi hamoma: ne ilegele sia: i.
10 And the servant takes ten camels of the camels of his lord and goes, also of all the goods of his lord in his hand, and he rises, and goes to Aram-Naharaim, to the city of Nahor;
Amalalu, hawa: hamosu dunu da ea hina ga: mele nabuane gala amo lale, ea hina ea liligi noga: iwane aguni, gadili asi. E da Alame Nahalaime soge amoga doaga: musa: asili, Na: iho moilaiga doaga: i.
11 and he causes the camels to kneel at the outside of the city, at the well of water, at evening, at the time of the coming out of the women who draw water.
Hano uli dogoi moilai gadili sogebi gala amoga doaga: loba, ea sia: beba: le, ga: mele da muguni bugi. Eso dabe da gadenenewane ba: i. Amoha, uda ilia hou da hano uli dogoi amoga hano dima: ne hiougimusa: ahoasu.
12 And he says, “YHWH, God of my lord Abraham, please cause to meet before me this day—(and do kindness with my lord Abraham;
Amalalu, e da Godema amane sia: ne gadoi, “Hina Godedafa! Na hina A: ibalaha: me amo ea Gode! Na hawa: hamosu hahawane dagoma: ne Di fidima, amola na hina A: ibalaha: mema dia asigi hou olelema.
13 behold, I am standing by the fountain of water, and daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water;
Ba: ma! Na da amo hano nasu ulidou gadenene lela amola amo moilai dunu ilia uda mano da hano dimusa: manebe.
14 and it has been, the young person to whom I say, Please incline your pitcher and I drink, and she has said, Drink, and I also water your camels)—her [whom] You have decided for Your servant, for Isaac; and by it I know that You have done kindness with my lord.”
Na da agoane hanai gala. Na da a: finima ‘Dia hano disu amo na hano moma: ne ligisima.’ sia: sea, amola e da amane sia: sea, ‘Defea! Moma! Amola na da dia ga: mele moma: ne hano dili imunu.’ Amo hou ba: sea, Hina Gode da amo a: fini na hina ea mano lama: ne ilegei dagoi na da dawa: mu. Amola Di da na hinama asigi hou olelei dagoi, amo na da dawa: mu.”
15 And it comes to pass, before he has finished speaking, that behold, Rebekah (who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, wife of Nahor, brother of Abraham) is coming out, and her pitcher on her shoulder,
E da sia: ne gadolaloba, Lebega da misini, ea hano ganagu amo gisa manebe ba: i. Lebega da Bediuele ea idiwi, amola Bediuele ea: me da A: ibalaha: me ola Na: iho amo idua, ea dio amo Miliga.
16 and the young person [is] of very good appearance, a virgin, and a man has not known her; and she goes down to the fountain, and fills her pitcher, and comes up.
Lebega ea ba: su da noga: idafa ba: i. E da a: fini galu. Dunu afae da e amola gilisili hame golai. E da hano nasua asili, ea ganagu nabalesili, bu heda: i.
17 And the servant runs to meet her and says, “Please let me swallow a little water from your pitcher”;
A: ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu da hedolo ema misini, amane sia: i, “Na da dia ganagu amoga hano fonobahadi manu da defeala: ?”
18 and she says, “Drink, my lord”; and she hurries, and lets down her pitcher on her hand, and gives him drink.
A: fini da amane sia: i, “Defea! Ada! Di moma!” Amalalu, e da ganagu ligisili, ea lobo ganodini gaguli, ema hano i.
19 And she finishes giving him drink and says, “Also for your camels I draw until they have finished drinking”;
Hano dili ianu, e amane sia: i, “Na da dia ga: mele moma: ne amola hano dili imunu. Ilia sadi dagoiba: le fawane yolesimu.”
20 and she hurries, and empties her pitcher into the drinking-trough, and runs again to the well to draw, and draws for all his camels.
Amaiba: le, e da ea ganagu amo hano ga: mele hano nasu ganodini sogasalili, hano uli dogoi amoga hehenane, hano eno dili, ga: mele sadi dagoiba: le yolesi.
21 And the man, wondering at her, remains silent, to know whether YHWH has made his way prosperous or not.
A: ibalaha: me hawa: hamosu dunu da ouiya: le esalu. Gode da ea ahoabe bai amo noga: le fidi amo dawa: musa: gini, E da amo a: fini ea hou ha: giwane ba: lalu.
22 And it comes to pass, when the camels have finished drinking, that the man takes a golden ring (whose weight [is] a bekah), and two bracelets for her hands (whose weight [is] ten [bekahs] of gold),
Ga: mele da hano na dagoloba, A:ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu da mi bione gala: su gouliga hamoi amo Lebega ea mi ga: i, amola gouli lobofasele fei. Mi bione gala: su ea dioi defei da gala: me biyale agoane amola fesuale fesu da gala: me 100agoane.
23 and says, “Whose daughter [are] you? Please declare to me, is the house of your father a place for us to lodge in?”
Amalalu, A:ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu da ema amane adole ba: i, “Di da nowa ea manola: ? Nama adoma! Dia ada diasu amo ganodini nini golama: ne sogebi ganabela: ?
24 And she says to him, “I [am] daughter of Bethuel, son of Milcah, whom she has borne to Nahor.”
A: fini da bu adole i, “Na da Bediuele ea mano. Bediuele da Na: iho amola idua Miliga ela mano.”
25 She also says to him, “Both straw and provender [are] abundant with us, also a place to lodge in.”
Amalalu, e bu adole i, “Ninia diasua da gisi ha: i manu bagohame gala. Amola dilia gasia golama: ne, sogebi bagade gala.
26 And the man bows, and pays respect to YHWH,
Amalalu, hawa: hamosu dunu e da beguduli, Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadoi.
27 and says, “Blessed [is] YHWH, God of my lord Abraham, who has not left off His kindness and His truth with my lord—I [being] in the way, YHWH has led me to the house of my lord’s brothers.”
E amane sia: i, “Na da Hina Gode dio nodone gaguia gadosa. Na hina A: ibalaha: me, amo ea Gode da ema asigi hou hame yolesi. Be Hina Gode da na bisili asili, nama na hina ea fi dunu ilia diasu noga: le olelei.
28 And the young person runs, and declares to the house of her mother according to these words.
Lebega da hehenane, ea ame fi ilima amo hou olelei.
29 And Rebekah has a brother, and his name [is] Laban, and Laban runs to the man who [is] outside, to the fountain;
Lebega ea ola amo ea dio La: iba: ne esalu. La: iba: ne da hehenane, hano nasu amoga doaga: musa: asi.
30 indeed, it comes to pass, when he sees the ring, and the bracelets on the hands of his sister, and when he hears the words of his sister Rebekah, saying, “Thus has the man spoken to me,” that he comes to the man, and behold, he is standing by the camels by the fountain.
E da Lebega lai liligi, amo mi bione ga: i amola gouli lobofasele fei ba: i dagoi. E da Lebega ea sia: nabi dagoi. Amabeba: le, e da asili, A:ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu ea ga: mele amo hano nasu gadenene lelebe ba: i.
31 And he says, “Come in, O blessed one of YHWH! Why do you stand outside—and I have prepared the house and place for the camels?”
E amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da dima hahawane dogolegele ilegesa. Misa! Di da abuli gadili lela. Na da di golama: ne amola ga: mele golama: ne diasu hahamoi dagoi.”
32 And he brings in the man into the house, and looses the camels, and gives straw and provender for the camels, and water to wash his feet, and the feet of the men who [are] with him:
Amaiba: le, dunu da diasuga asi. La: iba: ne da ga: mele amoga liligi lale ligisi. E da gisi amola ha: i manu ga: mele ilima gaguli misi, amola A: ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu amola ea fidisu dunu ilia emo dodofema: ne, hano dili i.
33 and sets before him to eat; but he says, “I do not eat until I have spoken my word”; and he says, “Speak.”
Amalalu, amo dunu ha: i moma: ne, ilia da ha: i manu gaguli misi. Be e amane sia: i, Na da na sia: ne iasu sia: i dagoiba: le fawane, ha: i manu. La: iba: ne da amane sia: i, “Defea! Ninima adoma!”
34 And he says, “I [am] Abraham’s servant;
Amaiba: le, e amane sia: i, “Na da A: ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu.
35 and YHWH has blessed my lord exceedingly, and he is great; and He gives to him flock, and herd, and silver, and gold, and menservants, and maidservants, and camels, and donkeys;
Hina Gode da na hina amo hahawane dogolegelewane bagade fidibiba: le, e da wali bagade gagui dunu esala. Gode da ema sibi, bulamagau, silifa, gouli, hawa: hamosu dunu, hawa: hamosu uda, ga: mele, amola dougi ema i dagoi.
36 and Sarah, my lord’s wife, bears a son to my lord, after she has been aged, and he gives to him all that he has.
Ea uda Sela da da: i hamoi be ema dunu mano da lalelegei. Na hina da amo manoma ea gagui huluane i dagoi.
37 And my lord causes me to swear, saying, You do not take a wife to my son from the daughters of the Canaanite, in whose land I am dwelling.
Na hina da logeiba: le, na da Gode Ea Dioba: le gasa bagade ilegele sia: i. Na hina da amane sia: i, “Na da Ga: ina: ne fi amo ganodini esala. Be amoga nagofe uda lama: ne, uda mae sia: sima.
38 If not—to the house of my father you go, and to my family, and you have taken a wife for my son.
Be na ada ea sosogo fi amola na fidafa ilima nagofe ea uda lala masa.’
39 And I say to my lord, It may be the woman does not come after me;
Amalalu, na da na hinama amane adole ba: i, “Be amo uda da na amola bu sigi misunu hihi galea, na adi hamoma: bela: ?”
40 and he says to me, YHWH, before whom I have habitually walked, sends His messenger with you, and has prospered your way, and you have taken a wife for my son from my family, and from the house of my father;
E da nama bu adole i, ‘Hina Godedafa, amo Ea sia: na eso huluane naba, E di fidima: ne Ea a: igele dunu asunasimu. Di na fidafa, amola na ada ea sosogo fi amoga uda na mano ea lama: ne sia: sima.
41 then you are acquitted from my oath, when you come to my family; and if they do not give [one] to you, then you have been acquitted from my oath.
Dia gasa bagade sia: amo mae hamoma: ne, logo afadafa fawane gala. Di da na fi ilima asili amola ilia amo uda dima imunu higasea, defea, yolema.’
42 And I come to the fountain today, and I say, YHWH, God of my lord Abraham, now if You are making prosperous my way in which I am going—
Na da wali eso hano nasu uli dogoi amoga doaga: loba, na amane sia: ne gadoi, ‘Hina Gode! Na hina A: ibalaha: me ea Gode! Dia na wali hou hamobe fidima!
43 (behold, I am standing by the fountain of water), then the virgin is coming out to draw, and I have said to her, Please let me drink a little water from your pitcher,
Na da hano nasu uli dogoiga esala. A: fini afae hano dimusa: masea, e da nama ea ganagu, hano dili ima: ne na da adole ba: mu.
44 and she has said to me, Both drink, and I also draw for your camels—she is the woman whom YHWH has decided for my lord’s son.
E da amo iasea amola baligili na ga: mele ilima hano imunusa: sia: sea, amo da na hina ea mano lama: ne a: fini Di ilegei dagoi, na dawa: mu.’
45 Before I finish speaking to my heart, then behold, Rebekah is coming out, and her pitcher [is] on her shoulder, and she goes down to the fountain and draws; and I say to her, Please let me drink,
Na sia: ne gadoi da hame dagoloba, Lebega da hano ganagu gisa manebe ba: i. E hano nasu amoga hano dimusa: sa: i. Na ema amane sia: i, ‘Na da dima edegesa. Hano nama ima.’
46 and she hurries and lets down her pitcher from off her and says, Drink, and I also water your camels; and I drink, and she has also watered the camels.
E hedolo ea ganagu gisi, amo osoba ligisili, amane sia: i, ‘Defea! Moma! Na da dia ga: mele amola ilima hano dili imunu.’ Amalalu, na hano mai, amola e da ga: mele ilima hano i.
47 And I ask her, and say, Whose daughter [are] you? And she says, Daughter of Bethuel, son of Nahor, whom Milcah has borne to him, and I put the ring on her nose, and the bracelets on her hands,
Na ema amane adole ba: i, ‘Dia ada nowala: ?’ E bu adole i, ‘Na ada da Bediuele amo Na: iho amola Miliga ela mano.’ Amalalu, na da ea mi amoga mi bione gala: su amola ea lobofasele fei.
48 and I bow, and pay respect before YHWH, and I bless YHWH, God of my lord Abraham, who has led me in the true way to receive the daughter of my lord’s brother for his son.
Na muguni bugili Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadoi. Na da Hina Godedafa, na hina A: ibalaha: me ea Gode, amo Ea Dio nodone gaguia gadoi. E da moloiwane na hina ea fi amoga doaga: musa: logo olelei dagoiba: le amola na hina ea mano uda lamu amo noga: le oleleiba: le, na nodoi.
49 And now, if you are dealing kindly and truly with my lord, declare to me; and if not, declare to me; and I turn to the right or to the left.”
Defea! Dilia da moloiwane na hina ea hanai hamomusa: dawa: i galea, nama adoma. Be higa: i galea, amo nama adoma. Amasea, na da fa: no hamomu, amo na da sia: mu.
50 And Laban answers—Bethuel also—and they say, “The thing has gone out from YHWH; we are not able to speak to you bad or good;
La: iba: ne amola Bediuele da bu adole i, “Amo hou Hina Gode Hi hamoiba: le, ninia sia: mu da hamedei.
51 behold, Rebekah [is] before you, take and go, and she is a wife to your lord’s son, as YHWH has spoken.”
Lebega da amogai lela. Lale masa. Hina Godedafa Ea sia: defele, e da dia hina ea mano ema fimu da defea.”
52 And it comes to pass, when the servant of Abraham has heard their words, that he bows himself toward the earth before YHWH;
A: ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu da amo sia: nabaloba, beguduli, Hina Godema nodone sia: ne gadoi.
53 and the servant takes out vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and gives to Rebekah; precious things also he has given to her brother and to her mother.
Amalalu, ea liligi amoga e da abula, silifa, gouli amola muni bagade igi lale, Lebegama i. E da muni bagade liligi Lebega ea ola amola ea: mema i.
54 And they eat and drink, he and the men who [are] with him, and lodge all night; and they rise in the morning, and he says, “Send me to my lord”;
Amalalu, A:ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu amola ea fidisu dunu da ha: i amola hano nanu golai. Hahabe, nedigili, wa: legadole, e amane sia: i, “Dilia na hina ema na bu asunasima!”
55 and her brother says—her mother also, “Let the young person abide with us a week or ten days, afterward she goes.”
Be Lebega ea ola amola ea: me da amane sia: i, “A: fini da hi afae o eso nabuane gala amo gui esalumu da defea. Amolalu masunu da defea.”
56 And he says to them, “Do not delay me, seeing YHWH has prospered my way; send me away, and I go to my lord”;
Be e da bu adole i, “Ninia ouesalumu mae sia: ma. Bai Hina Gode da na sofe ahoasu amola hamobe noga: le didili fidi. Na da na hina ema bu masunu da defea.”
57 and they say, “Let us call for the young person, and inquire of her mouth”;
Ilia da bu adole i, “Ninia da a: fini misa: ne sia: mu. Ea sia: nabimu da defea.”
58 and they call for Rebekah, and say to her, “Do you go with this man?” And she says, “I go.”
Amaiba: le, ilia da Lebega misa: ne sia: i. Ilia da ema amane adole ba: i, “Di da amo dunu sigi masa: bela: ?” E bu adole i, “Ma!”
59 And they send away their sister Rebekah, and her nurse, and Abraham’s servant, and his men;
Amabeba: le, ilia da Lebega amola ea hawa: hamosu uda da: i, amo A: ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu, amola ea fidisu dunu amo sigi masa: ne sia: i.
60 and they bless Rebekah, and say to her, “You [are] our sister; become thousands of myriads, and your seed possesses the gate of those hating it.”
Amola ilia da Lebegama amo hahawane dogolegele sia: su sia: i, “Di, ninia dalusi, dunu fi osea: idafa ilima ame esaloma! Dima lalelegei fi da ilima ha lai dunu, ilima osa: le heda: mu da defea!”
61 And Rebekah and her young women arise, and ride on the camels, and go after the man; and the servant takes Rebekah and goes.
Amalalu, Lebega amola ea a: fini fidisu huluane da liligi momagele, ga: mele da: iya fila heda: le, A:ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu sigi asi. A: ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu da Lebega oule asi.
62 And Isaac has come in from the entrance of the Well of the Living One, my Beholder; and he is dwelling in the land of the south,
Aisage da dunu hame esalebe hafoga: i soge amo ea dio da “Gode Esala da na Ba: lala amo Ea Hano Nasu Uli Dogoi.” amogai misini esalebe ba: i. Amo da Ga: ina: ne soge ga (south) la: idi dialu.
63 and Isaac goes out to meditate in the field, at the turning of the evening, and he lifts up his eyes, and looks, and behold, camels are coming.
E da baloga amo odagiaba sogega ahoanoba, ga: mele manebe ba: i.
64 And Rebekah lifts up her eyes, and sees Isaac, and comes down off the camel;
Lebega da Aisage ba: loba, ga: mele amoga esalu, gudu aligila sa: i.
65 and she says to the servant, “Who [is] this man who is walking in the field to meet us?” And the servant says, “It [is] my lord”; and she takes the veil, and covers herself.
E da A: ibalaha: me hawa: hamosu dunu ema amane adole ba: i, “Amo dunu ninima manebe da nowala: ?” A: ibalaha: me ea hawa: hamosu dunu da bu adole i, “E da na hina.” Amaiba: le, Lebega da ea dialuma abula lale, ea odagi dedeboi.
66 And the servant recounts to Isaac all the things that he has done,
Amalalu, hawa: hamosu dunu da ea hamoi huluane Aisagema olelei.
67 and Isaac brings her into the tent of his mother Sarah, and he takes Rebekah, and she becomes his wife, and he loves her, and Isaac is comforted after [the death of] his mother.
Amalalu, Aisage da Lebega lale, abula diasu amo ea: me Sela musa: esalu amoga oule misi. Aisage da Lebegama bagade asigi galu. Ea: me Sela da bogoi dagoiba: le e da da: i dioi galu. Be Lebega laiba: le ea dogo denesi.
