Genesis 21
1 Now God visited Sarah as he had said, and did to Sarah as he had spoken.
| وَافْتَقَدَ الرَّبُّ سَارَةَ كَمَا قَالَ، وَأَنْجَزَ لَهَا مَا وَعَدَ بِهِ. | ١ |
2 Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
| فَحَبِلَتْ سَارَةُ وَوَلَدَتْ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ فِي شَيْخُوخَتِهِ ابْناً، فِي الْوَقْتِ الَّذِي عَيَّنَهُ اللهُ لَهُ. | ٢ |
3 Abraham called his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.
| فَدَعَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ ابْنَهُ الَّذِي أَنْجَبَتْهُ لَهُ سَارَةُ «إِسْحاقَ». | ٣ |
4 Abraham circumcised his son, Isaac, when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.
| وَخَتَنَهُ فِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّامِنِ بِمُوجِبِ أَمْرِ اللهِ. | ٤ |
5 Abraham was one hundred years old when his son, Isaac, was born to him.
| وَكَانَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ قَدْ بَلَغَ الْمِئَةَ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ عِنْدَمَا وُلِدَ لَهُ إِسْحاقُ. | ٥ |
6 Sarah said, "God has made me laugh. Everyone who hears will laugh with me."
| وَقَالَتْ سَارَةُ «لَقَدْ أَضْحَكَنِي الرَّبُّ. كُلُّ مَنْ يَسْمَعُ هَذَا الأَمْرَ يَضْحَكُ مَعِي». | ٦ |
7 She said, "Who would have said to Abraham, that Sarah would nurse children? For I have borne him a son in his old age."
| وَأَضَافَتْ أَيْضاً: «مَنْ كَانَ يُمْكِنُ أَنْ يَقُولَ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ إِنَّ سَارَةَ سَتُرْضِعُ بَنِينَ؟ فَهَا أَنَا قَدْ أَنْجَبْتُ لَهُ ابْناً فِي شَيْخُوخَتِهِ». | ٧ |
8 The child grew, and was weaned. Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned.
| وَكَبُرَ إِسْحاقُ وَفُطِمَ. فَأَقَامَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فِي يَوْمِ فِطَامِهِ مَأْدُبَةً عَظِيمَةً. | ٨ |
9 Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking.
| وَرَأَتْ سَارَةُ أَنَّ ابْنَ هَاجَرَ الْمِصْرِيَّةِ الَّذِي أَنْجَبَتْهُ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ يَسْخَرُ مِنِ ابْنِهَا إِسْحاقَ، | ٩ |
10 Therefore she said to Abraham, "Cast out this slave woman and her son. For the son of this slave woman will not be heir with my son, Isaac."
| فَقَالَتْ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ: «اطْرُدْ هَذِهِ الْجَارِيَةَ وَابْنَهَا، فَإِنَّ ابْنَ الْجَارِيَةِ لَنْ يَرِثَ مَعَ ابْنِي إِسْحاقَ». | ١٠ |
11 The thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight on account of his son.
| فَقَبُحَ هَذَا الْقَوْلُ فِي نَفْسِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ مِنْ أَجْلِ ابْنِهِ. | ١١ |
12 God said to Abraham, "Do not let it be grievous in your sight because of the boy, and because of your slave woman. In all that Sarah says to you, listen to her voice. For from Isaac will your descendants be called.
| فَقَال اللهُ لَهُ: «لا يَسُوءُ فِي نَفْسِكَ أَمْرُ الصَّبِيِّ أَوْ أَمْرُ جَارِيَتِكَ، وَاسْمَعْ لِكَلامِ سَارَةَ فِي كُلِّ مَا تُشِيرُ بِهِ عَلَيْكَ لأَنَّهُ بِإِسْحاقَ يُدْعَى لَكَ نَسْلٌ. | ١٢ |
13 And I will also make a great nation of the son of the slave woman, because he is your offspring."
| وَسَأُقِيمُ مِنِ ابْنِ الْجَارِيَةِ أُمَّةً أَيْضاً لأَنَّهُ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِكَ». | ١٣ |
14 Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took food and a skin of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder; and gave her the child, and sent her away. She departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
| فَنَهَضَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فِي الصَّبَاحِ الْبَاكِرِ وَأَخَذَ خُبْزاً وَقِرْبَةَ مَاءٍ وَدَفَعَهُمَا إِلَى هَاجَرَ، وَوَضَعَهُمَا عَلَى كَتِفَيْهَا، ثُمَّ صَرَفَهَا مَعَ الصَّبِيِّ. فَهَامَتْ عَلَى وَجْهِهَا فِي بَرِّيَّةِ بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ. | ١٤ |
15 The water in the skin was gone, and she shoved the boy under one of the shrubs.
| وَعِنْدَمَا فَرَغَ الْمَاءُ مِنَ الْقِرْبَةِ طَرَحَتِ الصَّبِيَّ تَحْتَ إِحْدَى الأَشْجَارِ، | ١٥ |
16 She went and sat down opposite him, a good way off, about a bow shot away. For she said, "Do not let me see the death of the boy." So she sat across from him, and he wept loudly.
| وَمَضَتْ وَجَلَسَتْ مُقَابِلَهُ، عَلَى بُعْدِ نَحْوِ مِئَةِ مِتْرٍ، لأَنَّهَا قَالَتْ: «لا أَشْهَدُ مَوْتَ الصَّبِيِّ». فَجَلَسَتْ مُقَابِلَهُ وَرَفَعَتْ صَوْتَهَا وَبَكَتْ. | ١٦ |
17 And God heard the voice of the boy, and the angel of God called to Hagar from the sky and said to her, "What troubles you, Hagar? Do not be afraid. For God has heard the voice of the boy where he is.
| وَسَمِعَ اللهُ بُكَاءَ الصَّبِيِّ، فَنَادَى مَلاكُ اللهِ هَاجَرَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ وَقَالَ لَهَا: «مَا الَّذِي يُزْعِجُكِ يَا هَاجَرُ؟ لَا تَخَافِي، لأَنَّ اللهَ قَدْ سَمِعَ بُكَاءَ الصَّبِيِّ مِنْ حَيْثُ هُوَ مُلْقىً. | ١٧ |
18 Get up, lift up the boy, and hold him by your hand. For I will make him a great nation."
| قُومِي وَاحْمِلِي الصَّبِيَّ، وَتَشَبَّثِي بِهِ لأَنَّنِي سَأَجْعَلُهُ أُمَّةً عَظِيمَةً». | ١٨ |
19 God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went and filled the skin with water and gave the boy a drink.
| ثُمَّ فَتَحَ عَيْنَيْهَا فَأَبْصَرَتْ بِئْرَ مَاءٍ، فَذَهَبَتْ وَمَلأَتِ الْقِرْبَةَ وَسَقَتِ الصَّبِيَّ. | ١٩ |
20 God was with the boy, and he grew. He lived in the wilderness, and became, as he grew up, an archer.
| وَكَانَ اللهُ مَعَ الصَّبِيِّ فَكَبُرَ، وَسَكَنَ فِي صَحْرَاءِ فَارَانَ، وَبَرَعَ فِي رَمْيِ الْقَوْسِ. | ٢٠ |
21 He lived in the wilderness of Paran. His mother got a wife for him from the land of Egypt.
| وَاتَّخَذَتْ لَهُ أُمُّهُ زَوْجَةً مِنْ مِصْرَ. | ٢١ |
22 It happened at that time, that Abimelech and Phicol the commander of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, "God is with you in all that you do.
| وَفِي ذَلِكَ الزَّمَانِ خَاطَبَ أَبِيمَالِكُ وَفِيكُولُ قَائِدُ جَيْشِهِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَائِلَيْنِ: «إِنَّ اللهَ مَعَكَ فِي كُلِّ مَا تَقُومُ بِهِ، | ٢٢ |
23 Now, therefore, swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son. But according to the kindness that I have done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land in which you have lived as a foreigner."
| فَاحْلِفْ لِي الآنَ بِاللهِ أَنْ لَا تَغْدُرَ بِي وَلا بِنَسْلِي وَذُرِّيَّتِي، بَلْ تُحْسِنَ إِلَيَّ وَإِلَى شَعْبِي الَّذِي تَغَرَّبْتَ بَيْنَهُ، كَمَا أَحْسَنْتُ إِلَيْكَ». | ٢٣ |
24 And Abraham said, "I swear."
| فَقَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ: «أَحْلِفُ». | ٢٤ |
25 Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.
| وَعَاتَبَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ أَبِيمَالِكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ الْبِئْرِ الَّتِي اغْتَصَبَهَا عَبِيدُ أَبِيمَالِكَ، | ٢٥ |
26 Abimelech said, "I do not know who has done this thing. Neither did you tell me, neither did I hear of it, until today."
| فَقَالَ أَبِيمَالِكُ: «لَسْتُ أَعْلَمُ مَنِ ارْتَكَبَ هَذَا الأَمْرَ، وَأَنْتَ لَمْ تُخْبِرْنِي بِهِ، وَلَمْ أَسْمَعْ عَنْهُ سِوَى الْيَوْمِ». | ٢٦ |
27 Abraham took sheep and cattle, and gave them to Abimelech, and the two of them made a covenant.
| ثُمَّ أَعْطَى إِبْرَاهِيمُ أَبِيمَالِكَ غَنَماً وَبَقَراً وَقَطَعَ كِلاهُمَا عَهْداً. | ٢٧ |
28 Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
| وَفَرَزَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ سَبْعَ نِعَاجٍ مِنَ الْغَنَمِ وَحْدَهَا. | ٢٨ |
29 Abimelech said to Abraham, "What do these seven ewe lambs which you have set by themselves mean?"
| فَقَالَ أَبِيمَالِكُ لإِبْرَاهِيمَ: «مَاذَا تَقْصِدُ بِهَذِهِ النِّعَاجِ السَّبْعِ الَّتِي فَرَزْتَهَا جَانِباً؟» | ٢٩ |
30 He said, "You shall take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well."
| فَأَجَابَ: «هِيَ سَبْعُ نِعَاجٍ أُقَدِّمُهَا لَكَ بِيَدِي شَهَادَةً لِي أَنَّنِي حَفَرْتُ هَذِهِ الْبِئْرَ». | ٣٠ |
31 Therefore he called that place Beersheba, because they both swore there.
| لِذَلِكَ دَعَا ذَلِكَ الْمَكَانَ بِئْرَ سَبْعٍ (وَمَعْنَاهْ بِئْرُ الْحَلْفِ) لأَنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَأَبِيمَالِكَ كِلاهُمَا حَلَفَا هُنَاكَ. | ٣١ |
32 So they made a covenant at Beersheba. Abimelech rose up with Phicol, the commander of his army, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
| وَهَكَذَا قَطَعَا عَهْداً فِي بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ، ثُمَّ نَهَضَ أَبِيمَالِكُ وَفِيكُولُ رَئِيسُ جَيْشِهِ وَرَجَعَا إِلَى أَرْضِ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ. | ٣٢ |
33 And Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and called there on the name of the LORD, the Everlasting God.
| وَغَرَسَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ شَجَرَ أَثْلٍ فِي بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ، وَدَعَا هُنَاكَ بِاسْمِ الرَّبِّ الإِلَهِ السَّرْمَدِيِّ | ٣٣ |
34 Abraham lived as a foreigner in the land of the Philistines many days.
| وَمَكَثَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فِي بِلادِ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ فَتْرَةً طَوِيلَةً. | ٣٤ |
