Genesis 24
1 And Abraham [is] old, he has entered into days, and YHWH has blessed Abraham in all [things];
In pacl se inge Abraham el arulana matuoh, tuh LEUM GOD El akinsewowoyal in ma nukewa el oru.
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,
El fahk nu sin mwet kulansap se ma matu oemeet lal, su karingin ma lal nukewa, “Filiya poum inmasrlon epuk ac orala sie wulela nu sik.
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;
Nga lungse kom in wulela Inen LEUM GOD, su God lun kusrao ac faclu, lah kom fah tia sulela sie mutan Canaan kien wen nutik uh.
4 but to my land and to my family you go, and have taken a wife for my son, for Isaac.”
Enenu na kom in folokla nu in facl su nga matula we, ac eis sie mutan inmasrlon mwet luk tuh in mutan kial Isaac, wen nutik.”
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?”
A mwet kulansap sac siyuk, “Ac mutan sac fin tia lungse fahsr liki acn sel in wiyu tuku nu in acn Canaan? Ya nga ac supwala wen nutum in folokla nwe yen kom tuku we me an?”
6 And Abraham says to him, “Take heed to yourself lest you cause my son to return there;
Abraham el topuk, “Liyaung na kom in tia folokunla wen nutik uh nu we!
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;
LEUM GOD lun kusrao El usyume liki acn sin papa tumuk ac liki sou luk, ac El orala wulela na ku se lal nu sik mu El ac sang acn se inge nu sin fwilin tulik nutik. El fah supwala lipufan lal meet liki kom, tuh kom fah ku in konauk sie mutan kien wen nutik uh we.
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.”
Mutan sac fin tia lungse wi kom tuku, na kom sukosok liki wulela se inge. Tusruktu ac fah wangin kutena sripa ac pwanang kom in folokunla wen nutik uh nu we.”
9 And the servant puts his hand under the thigh of Abraham his lord, and swears to him concerning this matter.
Ouinge mwet kulansap sac el filiya paol inmasrlon epal Abraham, leum lal, ac wulela in oru oana ma Abraham el fahk nu sel.
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;
Ac mwet kulansap sac el us kain in mwe lung puspis fin singoul sin camel nutin leum lal, ac som nu ke siti se yen Nahor el muta we epang in acn Mesopotamia.
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.
Ke el sun acn we, el orala camel uh in muta nu ten sisken lufin kof se likin siti sac. In pacl se inge ekela, pacl mutan uh in tuku ut kof.
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;
Mwet kulansap sac pre ac fahk, “O LEUM GOD, God lal Abraham leum luk, akwoye ouiyuk misenge, ac akpwayei wuleang lom nu sel Abraham, leum luk.
13 behold, I am standing by the fountain of water, and daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water;
Nga a inge, sisken lufin kof se yen mutan fusr in siti uh ac tuku ut kof we.
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.”
Nga fah fahk nu sin sie selos, ‘Nunak munas sruhkya sufa in kof nimom an nu ten, ac lela ngan nimya.’ El fin fahk, ‘Nimya, ac nga fah oayapa ut kof nimen camel nutum uh,’ lela tuh in pa inge mutan se ma kom sulela kial Isaac, mwet kulansap lom. Ma se inge fin sikyak, na nga ac fah etu lah kom akpwayei wulela lom nu sin leum luk.”
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,
Meet liki safla pre lal, Rebecca el sikla, us sufa in ut kof soko finpisal. El acn natul Bethuel, su wen natul Nahor ac Milcah. Nahor el tamulel lal Abraham.
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.
El mutan fusr na kato se su soenna etu mwet. El tufokla nu ke lufin kof sac, nwakla sufa lal, ac foloko.
17 And the servant runs to meet her and says, “Please let me swallow a little water from your pitcher”;
Mwet kulansap sac kasrusr nu yorol ac fahk, “Nunak munas, ase ngan nimya kof in sufa nimom an.”
18 and she says, “Drink, my lord”; and she hurries, and lets down her pitcher on her hand, and gives him drink.
Mutan fusr sac fahk, “Mwet kacto, nimya.” Ac el sulaklak na sruhkya sufa lal nu ten liki finpisal, ac sruokya ke mwet kulansap sac nim.
19 And she finishes giving him drink and says, “Also for your camels I draw until they have finished drinking”;
Ke el nim tari, mutan sac fahk, “Kolya ngan utiya pac kof nimen camel nutum inge, ac sang eltal in nim na ke kuiyaltal.”
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.
Mutan sac el kina okoala sufa in kof sac nu in mwe nim kof lun kosro uh, ac kasrusr nu ke lufin kof ah in sifilpa ut kof, nwe ke na el kiteya nufonna camel nutin mukul sac.
21 And the man, wondering at her, remains silent, to know whether YHWH has made his way prosperous or not.
Mukul sac tia kas, a el tuni na mutan fusr sac in liye lah LEUM GOD El akwoye ouiyen fahsr lal.
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),
Ke camel ah nim kof tari, na mwet kulansap sac srukak ring gold na yohk molo se ac sang nu ke infwen mutan fusr sac, ac sang pac lohlpo gold luo nu ke paol.
23 and says, “Whose daughter [are] you? Please declare to me, is the house of your father a place for us to lodge in?”
Ac el fahk, “Nunak munas fahk nu sik lah su papa tomom uh. Ya mwesas lohm sel ah nu sik ac mwet luk inge in mongla we ofong?”
24 And she says to him, “I [am] daughter of Bethuel, son of Milcah, whom she has borne to Nahor.”
Na mutan sac fahk, “Papa tumuk pa Bethuel, wen natul Nahor ac Milcah.
25 She also says to him, “Both straw and provender [are] abundant with us, also a place to lodge in.”
Pukanten mah pao ac mongo nun kosro lohm ah, ac mwesas pac lohm ah kowos in mongla we.”
26 And the man bows, and pays respect to YHWH,
Na mwet kulansap sac sikukmutunte ac alu nu sin LEUM GOD.
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.”
El fahk, “Kaksakin LEUM GOD, God lal Abraham, leum luk, su oaru in akpwayei wuleang lal nu sin leum luk. LEUM GOD El aksuwoswosye fahsr luk nu yurin sou lun leum luk.”
28 And the young person runs, and declares to the house of her mother according to these words.
Mutan fusr sac kasrusr nu lohm sin nina kial, ac srumun ma inge nukewa nu sel.
29 And Rebekah has a brother, and his name [is] Laban, and Laban runs to the man who [is] outside, to the fountain;
Oasr tamulel se lal Rebecca pangpang Laban, ac el kasrusr som nu ke lufin kof sac, nu yen mwet kulansap lal Abraham el muta we.
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.
Laban el tuh liye ring nu infwac se ac lohlpo ke poun tamtael lal, ac lohng pac ke mutan sac fahkak ma mwet kulansap sac fahk nu sel. El som nu yurin mwet kulansap lal Abraham, su tu sisken camel natul pe lufin kof sac,
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?”
ac fahk, “Fahsru wiyu nu lohm ah. Kom sie mwet su LEUM GOD El akinsewowoye. Efu kom ku tu na inge? Oasr acn akola nu sum lohm ah, ac oasr pac acn nu sin camel nutum an.”
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:
Ouinge mukul sac som nu lohm sac, ac Laban el tella ma fin camel ah, ac sang mah pao ac mongo nalos. Na el use kof nu yurin mwet kulansap lal Abraham ac mwet lal, in ohlla nialos.
33 and sets before him to eat; but he says, “I do not eat until I have spoken my word”; and he says, “Speak.”
Ke mongo uh utuku, mukul sac fahk, “Nga koflana eis mwe kasru inge nwe ke na nga fahkak sripen tuku luk uh.” Laban el fahk, “Srumun ma kom ac fahk an.”
34 And he says, “I [am] Abraham’s servant;
Na el fahk, “Nga mwet kulansap lal Abraham.
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;
LEUM GOD El arulana akinsewowoye leum luk, oru el arulana kasrup. El sang nu sel un kosro puspis ke sheep, nani, cow, camel ac donkey, oayapa silver, gold, ac mwet kulansap mukul ac mutan.
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.
Sarah, mutan kien leum luk, el oswela wen se nu sel ke el arulana matu, ac leum luk el sang ma lal nukewa nu sin wen sac tuh in ma lal.
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.
Leum luk el sap nga orala sie wuleang na ku se in akos ma el sapkin. El fahk, ‘Nimet sulela mutan kien wen nutik inmasrlon mutan in acn Canaan.
38 If not—to the house of my father you go, and to my family, and you have taken a wife for my son.
A som nu yurin mwet lun papa tumuk ac sou luk, ac sulela sie mutan ah kial we.’
39 And I say to my lord, It may be the woman does not come after me;
Ac nga siyuk sin leum luk, ‘Ac mutan sac fin tia lungse wiyu tuku?’
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;
El topukyu ac fahk, ‘LEUM GOD su nga akos pacl nukewa, El ac fah supu lipufan lal in wi kom, ac sot wo ouiya nu sum. Kom fah eis sie mutan ah kien wen nutik inmasrlon mwet luk ac sou lun papa tumuk.
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.
Ma sefanna ac ku in aksukosokye kom liki wuleang se lom inge pa kom fin som nu yurin sou luk tuh elos tia lohng siyuk lom.’
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—
“Ke nga tuku sun lufin kof sac misenge, nga pre ac fahk, ‘LEUM GOD lal Abraham leum luk, nunak munas ase wo ouiya nu ke ma nga fahsr kac uh.
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,
Nga pa inge ke lufin kof uh. Ke pacl se sie mutan fusr ac tuku in ut kof uh, na nga ac siyuk sel elan ase kof ngan nimya liki sufa lal.
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.
El fin etaten ac kiteyu kof, ac oayapa siyuk elan use kof nimen camel nutik uh, lela in el pa mutan se kom sulela tuh in mutan kien wen nutin leum luk!’
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,
Meet liki nga aksafyela pre lun insiuk, Rebecca el sikla us sufa in ut kof soko finpisal, ac oatui nu ke lufin kof sac in ut kof. Nga fahk nu sel, ‘Nunak munas, se ngan nimya.’
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.
El kina eisya sufa sac liki finpisal ac fahk, ‘Nimya, ac nga ac fah sang pac kof nimen camel nutum uh.’ Ouinge nga nimya, ac el kiteya pac camel ah.
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,
Nga siyuk sel, ‘Su papa tomom uh?’ Ac el topuk, ‘Papa tumuk pa Bethuel, wen natul Nahor ac Milcah.’ Na nga sang ring se nu ke fwacl ac lohlpo luo nu ke paol.
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.
Nga sikukmutunte ac alu nu sin LEUM GOD. Nga kaksakin LEUM GOD lal Abraham leum luk, su kolyume na nwe yurin sou lun leum luk, yen su nga konauk mutan fusr se natulos tuh in ma kien wen nutin leum luk.
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.”
Inge, komtal fin akola in oru ip lomtal nu sin leum luk ac insese nu ke siyuk lal uh, na komtal nunak munas fahk nu sik. Ac fin tia, fahk pac, tuh nga in sulela lah mea nga ac oru.”
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;
Na Laban ac Bethuel topuk ac fahk, “Ke sripen ma inge ma sin LEUM GOD me uh, wanginna ma kut ac fahk.
51 behold, Rebekah [is] before you, take and go, and she is a wife to your lord’s son, as YHWH has spoken.”
Rebecca el a inge. Usal ac som. Lela tuh elan mutan kien wen nutin leum lom, in oana ke LEUM GOD El fahk.”
52 And it comes to pass, when the servant of Abraham has heard their words, that he bows himself toward the earth before YHWH;
Pacl se mwet kulansap lal Abraham el lohng ma inge, el faksufi ac alu nu sin LEUM GOD.
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.
Na el tella nuknuk ac silver ac mwe yun gold, ac sang nu sel Rebecca. El oayapa sang mwe kite yohk molo nu sin tamulel lal ac nu sin nina kial.
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”;
Na mwet kulansap lal Abraham ac mwet welul elos mongoi ac motulla we ke fong sac. Ke elos tukakek ke lotu se tok ah, mwet kulansap sac fahk, “Nunak munas, filikutla in folokla nu yurin leum luk.”
55 and her brother says—her mother also, “Let the young person abide with us a week or ten days, afterward she goes.”
Tusruktu tamulel lal Rebecca ac nina kial eltal fahk, “Mea, Rebecca el tia ku in mutawin len singoul ma yorosr, na el fah wi kom som?”
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”;
A el fahk, “Nikmet ikol kut in sifilpa muta. LEUM GOD El akwoye fahsr se luk inge. Fuhlela nga in tari folokla nu yurin mwet kacto luk.”
57 and they say, “Let us call for the young person, and inquire of her mouth”;
Ac elos fahk, “Pangnolma Rebecca, kut in lohng lah mea el ac fahk.”
58 and they call for Rebekah, and say to her, “Do you go with this man?” And she says, “I go.”
Ouinge elos pangnolma Rebecca ac siyuk, “Kom lungse wi mwet se inge som?” Ac el fahk, “Aok.”
59 And they send away their sister Rebekah, and her nurse, and Abraham’s servant, and his men;
Ke ma inge elos fuhlella Rebecca ac mutan kulansap se ma liyalang ke pacl el tulik ah yak, in wi mwet kulansap lal Abraham ac mwet lal ah som.
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.”
Ac elos akinsewowoyal Rebecca ac fahk, “Lela tuh kom, tamtael wiasr, in nina kien million! Ac fwilin tulik nutum in kutangla siti lun mwet lokoalok lalos!”
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.
Na Rebecca ac mutan fusr kulansap lal elos akola ac sroang nu fin camel uh in wi mwet kulansap lal Abraham. Na elos nukewa mukuiyak som.
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,
Isaac el tuku nu in acn turangang se ke “Lufin Kof Lun El Su Moul Ac Liyeyu,” ac el muta layen eir ke sie ipin acn Canaan.
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.
Ke tufahna ekela el illa ac fufahsryesr in polo acn sac, ac liyauk kutu camel fahfahsru.
64 And Rebekah lifts up her eyes, and sees Isaac, and comes down off the camel;
Ke Rebecca el liyalak Isaac, el fani liki camel el muta fac
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.
ac siyuk sin mwet kulansap lal Abraham, “Su mwet se fahsru nu yorosr ingo?” Na mwet kulansap sac topuk, “Pa ingo leum se luk uh.” Ouinge Rebecca el srukak nuknuk in afyuf lal ac sunya mutal.
66 And the servant recounts to Isaac all the things that he has done,
Mwet kulansap sac srumunang nu sel Isaac ma nukewa el tuh oru.
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.
Na Isaac el usalak Rebecca nu in lohm nuknuk se ma Sarah nina kial ah tuh muta we, ac el payukyak sel. Lungse lal Isaac nu sel Rebecca akwoyela asor lal ke wanginla lun nina kial.
