< Genesis 26 >
1 And there is a famine in the land, besides the first famine which was in the days of Abraham, and Isaac goes to Abimelech king of the Philistines, to Gerar.
Ie amy zao nikerè ty tane, nandimbe i hasalikoañe nifetsake tañandro’ i Avrahamey. Le noly mb’e Gerare mb’ amy Abimèleke nte-Pilisty mb’eo t’Ietsàke.
2 And YHWH appears to him and says, “Do not go down toward Egypt, dwell in the land concerning which I speak to you,
Ie amy zao, nisodehañe am’ Ietsàke t’Iehovà nanao ty hoe, Ko mitaveam-b’e Mitsraime añe; fa mitobea an-tane hatoroko azo.
3 sojourn in this land, and I am with you, and bless you, for to you and to your seed I give all these lands, and I have established the oath which I have sworn to your father Abraham;
Mimoneña an-tane atoy, le himbaeko vaho ho tahieko; amy te hatoloko azo naho amo tarira’o iabio o tane retoañe; le ho henefeko ty fanta nifantàko amy Avrahame rae’o.
4 and I have multiplied your seed as stars of the heavens, and I have given to your seed all these lands; and all nations of the earth have blessed themselves in your Seed;
Hampiraeko amo vasian-dikerañeo o tarira’oo naho hatoloko amo tarira’oo o hene tane toañeo vaho amo tarira’oo ty hitahiañe ze hene foko an-tane atoy
5 because that Abraham has listened to My voice, and keeps My charge, My commands, My statutes, and My laws.”
amy te nihaoñe’ i Avrahame ty feoko le nitambozore’e i namantohakoy, o fepèkoo, o fañekoo vaho o Fanoroakoo.
6 And Isaac dwells in Gerar;
Aa le nitoetse e Gerare ao t’Ietsàke.
7 and men of the place ask him of his wife, and he says, “She [is] my sister”: for he has been afraid to say, “My wife—lest the men of the place kill me for Rebekah, for she [is] of good appearance.”
Ie nañontane i vali’ey ondati’ i rovaio, le hoe re, Rahavaveko toke, amy t’ie nihembañe tsy te hanao ty hoe, Valiko, fa natao’e te hañe-doza ama’e ondatio, ty amy hamontramontra’ i Ribkae.
8 And it comes to pass, when the days have been prolonged to him there, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looks through the window, and sees, and behold, Isaac is playing with his wife Rebekah.
Ie tambatse ela ao t’Ietsàke le nitilihitse ami’ty lalan-kede t’i Abimeleke mpanjaka’ o nte-Pelistio: niisa’e te heheke nitsapatsapa i Ribkae vali’e t’Ietsàke.
9 And Abimelech calls for Isaac and says, “Behold, she [is] surely your wife; and how could you have said, She [is] my sister?” And Isaac says to him, “Because I said, Lest I die for her.”
Aa le nampikanjie’ i Abimeleke t’Ietsàke vaho nanoa’e ty hoe, Toe vali’o re! Ino ty nanoe’o ty hoe Rahavaveko? Hoe t’Ietsàke tama’e, Nataoko hera hikenkañe ty ama’e iraho.
10 And Abimelech says, “What [is] this you have done to us? As a little thing one of the people had lain with your wife, and you had brought on us guilt”;
Hoe ty Abimeleke, Inoñe arè ty nanoe’o ama’ay? Kera niolots’ amy vali’oy t’indaty le ho nañakeo anay irehe.
11 and Abimelech commands all the people, saying, “He who comes against this man or against his wife, dying does die.”
Aa le hinatahata’ i Abimeleke ondati’e iabio ami’ty hoe, Toe havetrake ze mitsapa t’indaty toy ndra i vali’ey.
12 And Isaac sows in that land, and finds in that year a hundredfold, and YHWH blesses him;
Nitongy amy taney t’Ietsàke le nanatake in-jato amy taoñey avao, amy te nitahie’ Iehovà,
13 and the man is great, and goes on, going on and becoming great, until he has been very great,
vaho niha-mpañarivo indatiy le mbe nionjoñe avao ty firaoraoa’e ampara’ te nimpañaleale.
14 and he has possession of a flock, and possession of a herd, and an abundant service; and the Philistines envy him,
Ie amam-pirai-lia naho mpirai-troke vaho tsiefa o pitoro’eo, le nikirañe aze o nte-Pilistio.
15 and all the wells which his father’s servants dug in the days of his father Abraham, the Philistines have stopped them, and fill them with dust.
Aa le finempe’ o nte-Pilistio naho linembeke tane o vovoñe hinali’ o mpitoron-drae’eo tañandro’ i Avrahameo.
16 And Abimelech says to Isaac, “Go from us; for you have become much mightier than we”;
Le hoe t’i Abimelek’ am’Ietsàke, Misitaha, fa loho maozatse te ama’ay irehe.
17 and Isaac goes from there, and encamps in the Valley of Gerar, and dwells there;
Aa le nienga boak’ao t’Ietsàke naho nitobe am-bavatane’ i Gerare vaho nitoetse eo;
18 and Isaac turns back, and digs the wells of water which they dug in the days of his father Abraham, which the Philistines have stopped after the death of Abraham, and he calls to them names according to the names which his father called them.
le sinoka’ Ietsàke indraike o vovon-drano nihalieñe tañandro’ i Avrahame rae’eo, o linembe’ o nte-Pilisty iabio naho fa nihomake t’i Avrahame; vaho nitokave’e amo añarañe nitokavan-drae’e.
19 And Isaac’s servants dig in the valley, and find there a well of living water,
Le nihaly amy vavataney o mpitoro’ Ietsàkeo le nanjo vovoñe nigoangoan-drano.
20 and shepherds of Gerar strive with shepherds of Isaac, saying, “The water [is] ours”; and he calls the name of the well “Strife,” because they have striven habitually with him;
Fe nifandietse amo mpiara’ Ietsàkeo o mpiarake nte-Gerareo ami’ty hoe, Anay o ranoo, le natao’e ty hoe Eseke i vovoñey kanao nifandiera’ iereo.
21 and they dig another well, and they strive also for it, and he calls its name “Hatred.”
Nihaly vovoñe indraike iereo vaho nifanjomorañe ka, aa le nitokave’e Sitnà.
22 And he removes from there, and digs another well, and they have not striven for it, and he calls its name “Enlargements,” and says, “For—now has YHWH given enlargement to us, and we have been fruitful in the land.”
Ie niveve mb’eo le nihaly vovoñe indraike, f’ie tsy am-pifanoiñe, le natao’e ty hoe Rehobota ami’ty hoe, Fa nañivake ho anay t’Iehovà le hiraorao an-tane atoy.
23 And he goes up from there [to] Beer-Sheba,
Boak’ ao re nionjoñe mb’e Beersevà mb’eo.
24 and YHWH appears to him during that night and says, “I [am] the God of your father Abraham, do not fear, for I [am] with you, and have blessed you, and have multiplied your seed, because of My servant Abraham”;
Le nisodehañe ama’e amy haleñey t’Iehovà nanao ty hoe, Izaho ro Andrianañahare’ i Avrahame rae’o; ko hemban-drehe fa ama’o Iraho le ho tahieko vaho hampitozantozañeko o tarira’oo ty amy Avrahame mpitorokoy.
25 and he builds there an altar, and preaches in the Name of YHWH, and stretches out there his tent, and there Isaac’s servants dig a well.
Aa le nandrafetse kitrely eo naho nikanjy ty tahina’ Iehovà naho naore’e eo ty kiboho’e vaho nihaly vovoñe eo o mpitoro’ Ietsàkeo.
26 And Abimelech has gone to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath his friend, and Phichol head of his host;
Nomb’ ama’e mb’eo amy zao t’i Abimèleke boake Gerare, miharo amy Akozàte mpanolo-keve’e naho i Pikole, mpifehe o lahindefo’eo.
27 and Isaac says to them, “Why have you come to me, and you have hated me, and you send me away from you?”
Hoe t’Ietsak’ am’iereo, Inom-bao ty nomba’areo mb’ amako mb’etoa kanao malaiñe ahy, toe natao’ areo soike?
28 And they say, “We have certainly seen that YHWH has been with you, and we say, Now let there be an oath between us, between us and you, and let us make a covenant with you;
Hoe iereo, Trea’ay malange te ama’o t’Iehovà, le hoe zahay, Antao hifanitike, añivo’ay naho ihe, aa le iantofo te hifañina,
29 do no evil with us, as we have not touched you, and as we have only done good with you, and send you away in peace; you [are] now blessed of YHWH.”
soa te ihe tsy hijoy anay, hambañe amy te zahay tsy nitsapa azo, fa tsy ino ty nanoe’ay naho tsy ty soa, naho nampañaveloe’ay am-panintsiñañe; toe tahie’ Iehovà irehe henaneo.
30 And he makes a banquet for them, and they eat and drink,
Aa le nañalankaña’e sabadidake, le nikama naho ninoñe.
31 and rise early in the morning, and swear to one another, and Isaac sends them away, and they go from him in peace.
Nitroatse marain-tsikiake iereo le nifañina am-panta, naho nasese’ Ietsàke mb’eo vaho nienga aze an-kanintsiñe.
32 And it comes to pass during that day that Isaac’s servants come and declare to him concerning the circumstances of the well which they have dug, and say to him, “We have found water”;
Nitotsak’ ama’e amy àndroy ka ty mpitoro’ Ietsake nitalily i vovoñe hinali’ iereo anianiy, ty hoe, Nahatrea rano zahay!
33 and he calls it Shebah, [oath, ] therefore the name of the city [is] Beer-Sheba, [Well of the Oath, ] to this day.
Natao’e Sivà ty añara’e; aa le Beer-Sevà ty añara’ i rovay henaneo.
34 And Esau is a son of forty years, and he takes a wife, Judith, daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath, daughter of Elon the Hittite,
Ie niefapolo taoñe t’i Esave, le nañenga Iehoditè ana’ i Bierý nte-Khete, naho i Basmàte ana’ i Elòne nte-Khete;
35 and they are a bitterness of spirit to Isaac and to Rebekah.
f’ie nampioremeñe ty arofo’ Ietsàke naho i Ribkae.
