Genesis 24
1 And Abraham [is] old, he has entered into days, and YHWH has blessed Abraham in all [things];
At si Abraham ay matanda na, at lipas na sa panahon: at pinagpala ng Panginoon si Abraham sa lahat ng mga bagay.
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,
At sinabi ni Abraham sa kaniyang alilang katiwala, sa pinakamatanda sa kaniyang bahay na namamahala ng lahat niyang tinatangkilik: Ipinamamanhik ko sa iyo na ilagay mo ang iyong kamay sa ilalim ng aking hita:
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;
At ikaw ay aking pasusumpain, alangalang sa Panginoon sa Dios ng langit at Dios ng lupa, na hindi mo papag-aasawahin ang aking anak sa mga anak ng mga Cananeo na siyang aking pinakikitahanan:
4 but to my land and to my family you go, and have taken a wife for my son, for Isaac.”
Kundi ikaw ay paroroon sa aking lupain, at sa aking kamaganakan, at papag-aasawahin mo roon ang aking anak na si Isaac.
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?”
At sinabi sa kaniya ng lingkod, Sakaling hindi iibigin ng babae na sumama sa akin sa lupaing ito: dapat ko bang ibalik ang anak mo sa lupaing pinanggalingan mo?
6 And Abraham says to him, “Take heed to yourself lest you cause my son to return there;
At sinabi sa kaniya ni Abraham, Ingatan mong huwag ibalik doon ang aking anak.
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;
Ang Panginoon, ang Dios ng langit, na kumuha sa akin sa bahay ng aking ama, at sa lupaing aking tinubuan, at sa akin ay nagsalita, at sa akin ay sumumpa, na nagsasabi, Sa iyong binhi, ibibigay ko ang lupaing ito: ay magsusugo siya ng kaniyang anghel sa unahan mo, at papag-aasawahin mo roon ang aking anak.
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.”
At kung ang babae ay ayaw sumama sa iyo, ay maliligtas ka rito sa aking sumpa; huwag mo lamang pabalikin ang aking anak doon.
9 And the servant puts his hand under the thigh of Abraham his lord, and swears to him concerning this matter.
At inilagay ng alilang katiwala ang kaniyang kamay sa ilalim ng hita ni Abraham na kaniyang panginoon, at sumumpa sa kaniya tungkol sa bagay na ito.
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;
At kumuha ang alilang katiwala ng sangpung kamelyo sa mga kamelyo ng kaniyang panginoon, at yumaon; na dala ang pinakamabuti sa lahat ng pag-aari ng kaniyang panginoon: at tumindig at napasa Mesopotamia, sa bayan ni Nachor.
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.
At kaniyang pinaluhod ang mga kamelyo sa labas ng bayan, sa tabi ng balon ng tubig, ng dakong palubog na ang araw, na kapanahunan nang paglabas ng mga babae upang umigib ng tubig.
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;
At sinabi, Oh Panginoon, Dios ng aking panginoong si Abraham, ipinamamanhik ko sa iyong pagkalooban mo ako ng mabuting kapalaran ngayon, at ikaw ay magmagandang loob sa aking panginoong kay Abraham.
13 behold, I am standing by the fountain of water, and daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water;
Narito, ako'y nakatayo sa tabi ng bukal ng tubig: at ang mga anak na babae ng mga tao sa bayan, ay nagsilabas upang umigib ng tubig:
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.”
At mangyari nga na ang dalagang aking pagsabihan, Ibaba mo, isinasamo ko sa iyo, ang iyong banga upang ako'y uminom; at siya'y magsabi, Uminom ka, at paiinumin ko pati ng iyong mga kamelyo: maging siyang iyong itinalaga sa iyong lingkod na kay Isaac: at sa ganito ay malalaman kong nagmagandang loob ka sa aking panginoon.
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,
At nangyari, na bago natapos ang pananalita niya, ay narito si Rebeca na ipinanganak kay Bethuel, na anak ni Milca, na asawa ni Nachor na kapatid ni Abraham na lumalabas na pasan ang kaniyang banga sa kaniyang balikat.
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.
At ang babae ay may magandang anyo, dalaga, na hindi pa nasisipingan ng lalake: at lumusong sa bukal, at pinuno ang kaniyang banga, at umahon.
17 And the servant runs to meet her and says, “Please let me swallow a little water from your pitcher”;
At tumakbong sinalubong siya ng alilang katiwala na sinabi, Makikiinom ako ng kaunting tubig sa iyong banga.
18 and she says, “Drink, my lord”; and she hurries, and lets down her pitcher on her hand, and gives him drink.
At sinabi niya, Uminom ka, panginoon ko: at nagmadaling ibinaba ang banga sa kaniyang kamay, at pinainom siya.
19 And she finishes giving him drink and says, “Also for your camels I draw until they have finished drinking”;
At pagkatapos na kaniyang mapainom, ay sinabi, Iyiigib ko naman ang iyong mga kamelyo, hanggang sa makainom na lahat.
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.
At ibinuhos na dalidali ang kaniyang banga sa inuman, at tumakbong muli sa balon upang umigib at iniigib ang lahat niyang kamelyo.
21 And the man, wondering at her, remains silent, to know whether YHWH has made his way prosperous or not.
At siya'y tinitigan ng lalake; na hindi umiimik, upang maalaman kung pinagpala ng Panginoon ang kaniyang paglalakbay o hindi.
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),
At nangyari, nang makainom ang mga kamelyo, na kumuha ang lalake ng isang singsing na ginto, na may kalahating siklo sa timbang, at dalawang pulsera upang ilagay sa kaniyang mga kamay, na may timbang na sangpung siklong ginto;
23 and says, “Whose daughter [are] you? Please declare to me, is the house of your father a place for us to lodge in?”
At sinabi, Kaninong anak ka? sabihin mo sa akin, ipinamamanhik ko sa iyo. May lugar ba sa bahay ng iyong ama na aming matutuluyan?
24 And she says to him, “I [am] daughter of Bethuel, son of Milcah, whom she has borne to Nahor.”
At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Anak ako ni Bethuel, na anak ni Milca, na ipinanganak niya kay Nahor.
25 She also says to him, “Both straw and provender [are] abundant with us, also a place to lodge in.”
Sinabi rin niya sa kaniya, Mayroon din naman kaming saganang dayami at pagkain sa hayop, at dakong matutuluyan.
26 And the man bows, and pays respect to YHWH,
At lumuhod ang lalake at sumamba sa Panginoon.
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.”
At siya'y nagsabi, Purihin ang Panginoon, ang Dios ng aking panginoong si Abraham, na hindi inilayo ang kaniyang habag at ang kaniyang pagtatapat, sa aking panginoon: tungkol sa akin, ay pinatnugutan ako ng Panginoon sa daan hanggang sa bahay ng mga kapatid ng aking panginoon.
28 And the young person runs, and declares to the house of her mother according to these words.
At tumakbo ang dalaga at isinaysay sa sangbahayan ng kaniyang ina ang ayon sa mga salitang ito.
29 And Rebekah has a brother, and his name [is] Laban, and Laban runs to the man who [is] outside, to the fountain;
At mayroon si Rebeca na isang kapatid na nagngangalang Laban: at tinakbo ni Laban ang lalake sa labas, sa bukal.
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.
At nangyari, pagkakita ng singsing, at ng mga pulsera sa mga kamay ng kaniyang kapatid, at pagkarinig ng mga salita ni Rebeca na kaniyang kapatid, na sinasabi, Gayon sinalita sa akin ng lalake; na naparoon siya sa lalake; at narito, ito'y nakatayo sa siping ng mga kamelyo, sa bukal.
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?”
At sinabi niya, Pumasok ka, pinagpala ng Panginoon; bakit ka nakatayo sa labas? sapagka't inihanda ko ang bahay, at ang dako ng mga kamelyo.
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:
At pumasok ang lalake sa bahay, at kinalagan ang mga kamelyo; at binigyan ni Laban ng dayami at pagkain ang mga kamelyo, at ng tubig upang ipaghugas ng kaniyang mga paa, at ng mga paa ng mga taong kasama niya.
33 and sets before him to eat; but he says, “I do not eat until I have spoken my word”; and he says, “Speak.”
At siya'y hinainan nila ng pagkain: datapuwa't kaniyang sinabi, Hindi ako kakain hanggang hindi ko nasasabi ang aking sadya. At sinabi ni Laban, Magsalita ka.
34 And he says, “I [am] Abraham’s servant;
At kaniyang sinabi, Alilang katiwala ako ni 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;
At pinagpalang mainam ng Panginoon ang aking panginoon; at siya'y naging dakila: at siya'y binigyan ng kawan at bakahan, at ng pilak at ng ginto, at ng mga aliping lalake, at babae, at ng mga kamelyo, at ng mga asno.
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.
At si Sara na asawa ng aking panginoon, ay nagkaanak ng lalake sa aking panginoon, nang siya'y matanda na: at siyang pinagbigyan ni Abraham ng kaniyang lahat na inaari.
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.
At pinapanumpa ako ng aking panginoon, na sinasabi, Huwag mong papag-aasawahin ang aking anak sa mga anak na babae ng mga Cananeo na siyang lupaing aking tinatahanan:
38 If not—to the house of my father you go, and to my family, and you have taken a wife for my son.
Kundi paroroon ka sa bahay ng aking ama at sa aking kamaganakan, at papag-aasawahin mo roon ang aking anak.
39 And I say to my lord, It may be the woman does not come after me;
At sinabi ko sa aking panginoon, Sakaling hindi iibigin ng babaing sumama sa akin.
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;
At kaniyang sinabi sa akin, Ang Panginoon na sa harap niya'y lumalakad ako, ay susuguin niyang kasama mo ang kaniyang anghel, at kaniyang pagpapalain ang iyong lakad, at papag-aasawahin mo ang aking anak sa aking kamaganakan, at sa angkan ng aking ama:
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.
Kung magkagayo'y makakakawala ka sa aking sumpa, pagka ikaw ay dumating sa aking kamaganakan; at kung hindi nila ibigay sa iyo, ay makakakawala ka sa aking sumpa.
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—
At dumating ako ng araw na ito, sa bukal, at aking sinabi, Oh Panginoon, na Dios ng aking panginoong si Abraham, kung ngayo'y pinagpapala mo ang aking lakad na nilalakad ko:
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,
Narito, nakatayo ako sa tabi ng bukal ng tubig; at mangyari, na ang dalagang lumabas na umigib na aking pagsasabihan, Makikiinom ako sa iyo ng kaunting tubig sa iyong banga;
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.
At siya'y magsasabi sa akin, Uminom ka, at iyigib ko pati ng iyong mga kamelyo: ay siyang maging babaing itinalaga ng Panginoon sa anak ng aking panginoon.
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,
At bago ko nasalita sa sarili, narito si Rebeca, na lumalabas na pasan ang kaniyang banga sa kaniyang balikat; at lumusong sa bukal at umigib: at aking sinabi sa kaniya, Makikiinom ako sa iyo.
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.
At dalidali niyang ibinaba ang kaniyang banga sa kaniyang balikat, at nagsabi, Uminom ka, at paiinumin ko pati ng iyong mga kamelyo: sa gayo'y uminom ako, at pinainom niya pati ng mga kamelyo,
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,
At siya'y aking tinanong, at aking sinabi, Kaninong anak ka? at kaniyang sinabi, Anak ako ni Bethuel, na anak ni Nachor, na ipinanganak sa kaniya ni Milca: at inilagay ko ang hikaw sa kaniyang ilong, at ang mga pulsera sa kaniyang mga kamay.
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.
At aking iniyukod ang aking ulo, at sumamba ako sa Panginoon at pumuri sa Panginoon, na Dios ng aking panginoong si Abraham, na pumatnubay sa akin sa daang matuwid upang kunin ang anak ng kapatid ng aking panginoon, para sa kaniyang anak.
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.”
At ngayon, kung inyong mamagandahing loob at mamatapatin sa aking panginoon ay sabihin ninyo sa akin: at kung hindi, ay sabihin din ninyo sa akin; upang pumihit ako sa kanan o sa kaliwa.
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;
Nang magkagayo'y sumagot si Laban at si Bethuel, at sinabi, Sa Panginoon nagmumula ito: kami ay hindi makapagsasabi sa iyo ng masama o ng mabuti.
51 behold, Rebekah [is] before you, take and go, and she is a wife to your lord’s son, as YHWH has spoken.”
Narito, si Rebeca ay nasa harap mo, dalhin mo, at yumaon ka, at siya'y maging asawa ng anak ng iyong panginoon, na gaya ng sinalita ng Panginoon.
52 And it comes to pass, when the servant of Abraham has heard their words, that he bows himself toward the earth before YHWH;
At nangyari, na pagkarinig ng alilang katiwala ni Abraham ng kaniyang mga salita, ay nagpatirapa sa lupa sa harap ng Panginoon.
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.
At naglabas ang alilang katiwala ng mga hiyas na pilak at mga hiyas na ginto, at mga damit, at mga ibinigay kay Rebeca: nagbigay rin siya ng mga mahalagang bagay sa kaniyang kapatid na lalake at sa kaniyang ina.
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”;
At nangagsikain at nangagsiinom siya at ang mga taong kasama niya, at doon nagparaan ng magdamag, at sila'y nagsibangon ng umaga at kaniyang sinabi, Suguin ninyo ako sa aking panginoon.
55 and her brother says—her mother also, “Let the young person abide with us a week or ten days, afterward she goes.”
At sinabi ng kaniyang kapatid na lalake, at ng kaniyang ina, Matira ang dalaga sa aming ilang araw, sangpung araw man lamang; pagkatapos ay paroroon siya.
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”;
At sinabi niya sa kanila, Huwag ninyo akong pigilin, yamang pinagpala ng Panginoon ang aking lakad; papagpaalamin na ninyo ako, upang ako'y umuwi sa aking panginoon.
57 and they say, “Let us call for the young person, and inquire of her mouth”;
At kanilang sinabi, Tatawagin namin ang dalaga at uusisain namin sa kaniyang bibig.
58 and they call for Rebekah, and say to her, “Do you go with this man?” And she says, “I go.”
At kanila ngang tinawag si Rebeca, at kanilang sinabi sa kaniya, Sasama ka ba sa lalaking ito? At sinabi niya, Sasama ako.
59 And they send away their sister Rebekah, and her nurse, and Abraham’s servant, and his men;
At kanilang pinapagpaalam si Rebeca na kanilang kapatid, at ang kaniyang yaya, at ang alilang katiwala ni Abraham, at ang kaniyang mga tao.
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.”
At kanilang binasbasan si Rebeca, at sinabi nila sa kaniya, Kapatid namin, maging ina ka nawa ng yutayuta, at kamtin ng iyong binhi ang pintuang-bayan niyaong mga napopoot sa kanila.
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.
At tumindig si Rebeca, at ang kaniyang mga abay, at nangagsisakay sa mga kamelyo, at nangagsisunod sa lalake; at dinala ng alilang katiwala si Rebeca at yumaon.
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,
At si Isaac ay nanggaling sa daang Beer-lahai-roi; sapagka't siya'y natira sa lupaing Timugan.
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.
At lumabas si Isaac sa parang upang magmunimuni ng dakong hapon: at kaniyang itiningin ang kaniyang mga mata, at kaniyang nakita, at, narito, may dumarating na mga kamelyo.
64 And Rebekah lifts up her eyes, and sees Isaac, and comes down off the camel;
Itiningin naman ni Rebeca ang kaniyang mga mata at nang makita niya si Isaac, ay bumaba sa kamelyo.
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.
At sinabi ni Rebeca sa alilang katiwala, Sino yaong taong naglalakad sa parang na sumasalubong sa atin? At sinabi ng alilang katiwala, Yaon ang aking panginoon: at kinuha niya ang kaniyang lambong, at siya'y nagtakip.
66 And the servant recounts to Isaac all the things that he has done,
At isinaysay ng alilang katiwala kay Isaac ang lahat ng kaniyang ginawa.
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.
At dinala siya ni Isaac sa tolda ni Sara na kaniyang ina, at ipinagsama si Rebeca, at naging kaniyang asawa: at kaniya namang sininta: at naaliw si Isaac, pagkamatay ng kaniyang ina.
