< Genesis 24 >

1 Now Abraham was old, well advanced in days, and the LORD had blessed Abraham in all things.
Ibraahimna waa da' weynaa, gabow buuna la dhacay. Rabbiguna Ibraahim buu ku barakeeyey wax walba.
2 And Abraham said to his servant, the elder of his household, who was in charge over all that he had, "Please put your hand under my thigh,
Oo Ibraahim, wuxuu ku yidhi addoonkiisii oo dadka gurigiisa ugu weynaa, oo u talin jiray wixii uu lahaa oo dhan, Waan ku baryayaaye gacantaada bowdadayda hoos dhig.
3 and I will make you swear by the God of heaven and earth, that you must not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I am living,
Oo waxaan kugu dhaarin doonaa Rabbiga ah Ilaaha samada iyo Ilaaha dhulka inaadan wiilkayga naag uga guurinayn gabdhaha reer Kancaanka aan dhex degganahay:
4 but you must go to my country and to my relatives, and get a wife for my son Isaac."
laakiin waxaad u kacdaa dalkaygii iyo xigaalkaygii, oo waxaad naag uga keentaa wiilkayga Isxaaq.
5 And the servant asked him, "What if the woman isn't willing to follow me to this land? Must I then bring your son back to the land from which you came?"
Addoonkiina wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxaa laga yaabaa inaanay naagtu oggolaan inay ii soo raacdo dalkan; ma inaan wiilkaaga ku celiyo dalkii aad ka timid baa?
6 Then Abraham told him, "Be careful that you do not take my son back there.
Ibraahimna wuxuu ku yidhi isagii, Iska jir oo wiilkayga meeshaas ha ku celin.
7 Now the God of heaven, who took me from my father's household and from the land of my birth, who spoke to me and promised me on oath, saying, 'I will give this land to your offspring' -- he will send his angel before you, and you will get a wife for my son from there.
Rabbiga Ilaaha samada ah, oo iga soo kaxeeyey gurigii aabbahay iyo dalkaygii aan ku dhashay, oo ila hadlay, iiguna dhaartay, isagoo leh, Farcankaaga ayaan dalkan siinayaa, ayaa malaa'igtiisa kaa sii hor diri doona, wiilkaygana naag baad halkaas uga soo guurin doontaa.
8 But if the woman isn't willing to follow you, then you will be free from this oath to me. Only you must not bring my son back there."
Haddii naagtu aanay oggolaan inay ku soo raacdo, markaas dhaartaydan waxba kaa ma saarna, laakiin wiilkayga halkaas ha ku celin.
9 So the servant put his hand under the thigh of his master Abraham and gave his oath to him concerning this matter.
Addoonkii wuxuu gacantiisii hoos dhigay bowdadii sayidkiisii Ibraahim, wuxuuna ugu dhaartay wax arrintan ku saabsan.
10 Then the servant took ten camels from his master's camels and departed, having a variety of good things from his master at his disposal, and he set out and went to Aram Naharaim, to the city of Nahor.
Addoonkiina wuxuu kaxeeyey toban awr, oo ka mid ah awrtii sayidkiisa, wuuna tegey, isagoo gacantiisa ku haya waxyaalihii sayidkiisa oo wanaagsanaa oo dhan, oo intuu kacay ayuu tegey Mesobotamiya, xagga magaalada Naaxoor.
11 And he made the camels kneel down outside the city by the well of water at the time of evening, the time when women go out to draw water.
Awrtiina wuxuu tu'iyey meel magaalada dibaddeeda ah oo ceelka biyaha agtiisa ah kolkay galabtii ahayd, marka dumarku biyo dhaansiga u soo baxaan.
12 Then he said, "God of my master Abraham, please grant me success today and show kindness to my master Abraham.
Oo wuxuu yidhi, Rabbiyow, sayidkayga Ibraahim Ilaahiisow, waan ku baryayaaye, maanta i liibaani, sayidkayga Ibraahimna u roonow.
13 Look, I am standing by the spring of water, and the daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water.
Bal eeg, waxaan ag taaganahay isha biyaha ah, gabdhaha dadka magaaladuna waxay u soo baxayaan inay biyo dhaansadaan.
14 Now may it happen that the young woman to whom I will say, 'Please lower your jug that I may drink,' and she answers, 'Drink, and I will also give your camels a drink,'—her you have chosen for your servant Isaac. By this I will know that you have shown kindness to my master."
Gabadhii aan ku odhan doono, Ashuunkaaga deji, waan ku baryayaaye, aan ka cabbee, oo igu odhan doonta, Cab, awrtaadana waan waraabin doonaa, taasu ha noqoto tii aad u dooratay addoonkaaga Isxaaq, oo taas baan ku ogaan doonaa inaad sayidkayga u roonaatay.
15 And it happened, before he had finished speaking, that look, Rebekah was coming out with her jug on her shoulder—who was born to Bethuel the son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother.
Intuusan hadalkii dhammayn, waxaa soo baxday, iyadoo ashuunkeedii garabka ku sidata, Rebeqah oo u dhalatay Betuu'el wiilkii Milkah, oo ahayd naagtii Naaxoorkii ahaa Ibraahim walaalkiis.
16 Now the young woman was very beautiful in appearance, a virgin; no man had ever slept with her. And she went down to the spring and filled her jug and came up.
Gabadhuna waa suurad quruxsanayd, waxayna ahayd bikrad aan ninna u tegin. Waxay tagtay ishii biyaha ahayd xaggeeda, oo intay ashuunkeedii soo buuxsatay, ayay soo baxday.
17 Then the servant ran to meet her, and said, "Please give me a little water to drink from your jug."
Markaasuu addoonkii ku orday inuu ka hor tago oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Ashuunkaaga iga waraabi in yar oo biyo ah, waan ku baryayaaye.
18 So she said, "Drink, my lord." And she hurried and let down her jug to her hands, and gave him a drink.
Markaasay tidhi, Cab, sayidkaygiiyow. Oo intay dhaqsatay ayay ashuunkeedii dejisay oo gacanta ku qabatay, wayna waraabisay.
19 Now when she had finished giving him a drink, she said, "I will also draw for your camels, until they have finished drinking."
Oo markii ay waraabisay ka dib ayay ku tidhi, Awrtaadana waan u dhaamin doonaa, ilaa ay wabxaan.
20 So she hurried and emptied her jug into the trough and ran again to the well to draw, and drew for all his camels.
Oo intay dhaqsatay ayay biyihii ashuunkeedii ku shubtay berkeddii, oo mar kalay ceelkii ku orodday inay soo dhaamiso, wayna u dhaamisay awrtiisii oo dhan.
21 And the man watched her in silence so as to know whether God had made his journey successful or not.
Ninkiina aad buu u fiiriyey iyada, isagoo aamusan, inuu ogaado in Rabbigu ku liibaaniyey sodcaalkiisii iyo in kale.
22 And it happened, as the camels had finished drinking, that the man took a gold ring weighing a beka, which he put on her nose, and two bracelets for her hands weighing ten pieces of gold,
Markii awrtii cabtay ka dib ayaa ninkii soo qaaday sangelis dahab ah oo miisaankiisu yahay nus sheqel, gacmaheedana wuxuu u soo qaaday laba dugaagadood oo dahab ah oo miisaankoodu yahay toban sheqel.
23 and said, "Whose daughter are you? Please tell me, is there room in your father's house for us to lodge?"
Oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Ina ayaad tahay? Waan ku baryayaaye, ii sheeg. Guriga aabbahaa meel aannu ku hoyanno ma leeyahay?
24 Then she said to him, "I am the daughter of Bethuel, the son of Milcah, whom she bore to Nahor."
Oo waxay ku tidhi isagii, Anigu waxaan ahay ina Betuu'el, wiilkii Milkah ay Naaxoor u dhashay.
25 And she also said to him, "We have plenty of straw and fodder, and room to lodge."
Oo weliba waxa kale oo ay ku tidhi, Caws iyo cunto badanba waannu haysannaa, iyo meel lagu hoydo.
26 Then the man bowed his head and worshiped God,
Markaasaa ninkii madaxa foororiyey oo Rabbiga caabuday.
27 and said, "Blessed be the God of my master Abraham, who has not forsaken his loving kindness and his truth toward my master. As for me, he has led me on the journey to the house of my master's relatives."
Markaasuu yidhi, Mahad waxaa leh Rabbiga ah sayidkayga Ibraahim Ilaahiisa, oo aan naxariistiisa iyo runtiisa ka joojin sayidkayga. Anigana Rabbigu jidkuu igu soo hoggaamiyey, oo wuxuu i keenay gurigii sayidkayga walaalihiis.
28 Then the young woman ran, and told her mother's household about these words.
Gabadhiina intay orodday ayay waxyaalahan dadkii guriga hooyadeed uga warrantay.
29 Now Rebekah had a brother, and his name was Laban, and he ran out to the man at the spring.
Rebeqahna waxay lahayd walaal magiciisa la yidhaahdo Laabaan. Markaasaa Laabaan dibadda u baxay oo wuxuu ku orday ninkii isha joogay.
30 And it happened, when he saw the nose ring and the bracelets on his sister's wrists, and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister, saying, "This is what the man said to me," that he went to the man. And look, he was standing by the camels at the spring.
Markuu arkay sangeliskii, iyo dugaagadihii gacmihii walaashiis ku jiray, oo uu maqlay hadalkii walaashiis Rebeqah, iyadoo leh, Sidan buu ninkii iila hadlay, ayuu u yimid ninkii oo bal eeg, wuxuu ag istaagay awrtii isha joogtay.
31 And he said, "Come in, you blessed of God. Why do you stand outside? For I have prepared the house and room for the camels."
Oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Kaaga Rabbigu barakeeyeyow, soo gal, maxaad dibadda u taagan tahay? Gurigii waan soo hagaajiyey, awrtana meel baan u diyaariyey.
32 So the man went into the house and he unloaded the camels. And he gave straw and fodder for the camels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of the men who were with him.
Ninkiina gurigii buu soo galay, awrtiina wuu furay, wuxuuna isaga awrtii ugu dhiibay caws iyo cunto, biyona wuu siiyey inay ku cago maydhaan isaga iyo raggii la socdayba.
33 And he set before him food to eat, but he said, "I will not eat until I have told my message." And he said, "Say it."
Cuntona waa la hor dhigay inuu cuno: laakiinse wuxuu yidhi, Cuni maayo ilaa aan sheego farriintayda. Kolkaasuu yidhi, Sheeg.
34 So he said, "I am Abraham's servant.
Markaasuu yidhi, Waxaan ahay Ibraahim addoonkiisa.
35 And the Lord has blessed my master greatly, so that he has become great, and he has given him sheep and cattle, and silver and gold, and male servants and female servants, camels and donkeys.
Rabbigu aad iyo aad buu u barakeeyey sayidkayga, wuuna weynaaday: wuxuuna siiyey adhi iyo lo', iyo lacag iyo dahab, iyo rag addoommo ah, iyo naago addoommo ah, iyo geel iyo dameerro.
36 And Sarah my master's wife bore a son to my master when she was old, and to him he has given all that he has.
Saarah oo ahayd sayidkayga naagtiisii ayaa wiil u dhashay sayidkayga markay gabowday, oo wuxuu isaga siiyey wuxuu leeyahay oo dhan.
37 Now my master put me under oath, saying, 'You must not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I live,
Sayidkayguna wuu i dhaariyey, isagoo leh, Wiilkayga waa inaanad naag uga guurin gabdhaha reer Kancaanka aan dalkooda degganahay.
38 but you must go to my father's house, and to my relatives, and get a wife for my son.'
Laakiinse waxaad u kacdaa gurigii aabbahay, iyo xigaalkaygii, oo wiilkayga naag uga keen.
39 And I said to my master, 'What if the woman will not follow me?'
Markaasaan sayidkaygii ku idhi, Waxaa laga yaabaa inaanay naagtu i soo raaci doonin.
40 But he said to me, 'God, before whom I walk, will send his angel with you, and make your journey successful, and you will get a wife for my son from my relatives, and of my father's house.
Oo wuxuu igu yidhi, Rabbiga aan hortiisa ku socdo wuxuu ku raacin doonaa malaa'igtiisa, jidkaagana wuu kugu liibaanin doonaa, wiilkaygana naag baad uga guurin doontaa xigaalkaygii iyo gurigii aabbahay,
41 Then will you be free from my oath, when you come to my relatives. And if they do not give her to you, then you will be free from my oath.'
dabadeedna dhaartayda waxba kaama saarna, markaad u tagto xigaalkay; oo hadday iyada ku siin waayaan, markaas dhaartayda waxba kaama saarna.
42 So today I came to the spring, and said, 'God of my master Abraham, if now you will make my journey successful in which I go—
Maantaan isha imid oo waxaan idhi, Rabbiyow, sayidkayga Ibraahim Ilaahiisow, haddaad haatan jidkayga aan ku socdo igu liibaanisid,
43 look, I am standing by this spring of water, and may it happen that the young woman who comes out to draw, to whom I will say, "Please give me a little water from your pitcher to drink,"
bal eeg, waxaan ag taaganahay isha biyaha ah, gabadhii u soo baxda inay biyo dhaansato oo aan ku odhan doono, Waan ku baryayaaye, ashuunkaaga iga sii in yar oo biyo ah aan cabbee,
44 and she will say to me, "Drink, and I will also draw for your camels,"—may she be the woman who has been chosen for my master's son.'
oo igu odhan doonta, Cab, awrtaadana waan u dhaamin doonaa, taasu ha noqoto tii Rabbigu u doortay wiilka sayidkayga.
45 Before I had finished praying in my heart, look, Rebekah came out with her jug on her shoulder, and she went down to the spring, and drew. And I said to her, 'Please give me a drink.'
Oo intaan hadalkii qalbigayga ka dhammaan ayaa Rebeqah soo baxday iyadoo ashuunkeedii garabka ku sidata, markaasay ishii ku dhaadhacday, oo soo dhaansatay: anna waxaan ku idhi, Waan ku baryayaaye, i waraabi.
46 And she quickly lowered her jug from her shoulder, and said, 'Drink, and I will also give your camels a drink.' So I drank, and she also gave the camels water.
Iyana intay dhaqsatay oo ay ashuunkeedii garabkeeda ka soo dejisay ayay tidhi, Cab, awrtaadana waan waraabin doonaa: sidaas daraaddeed waan cabbay, awrtiina way waraabisay.
47 Then I asked her, and said, 'Whose daughter are you?' And she replied, 'The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor's son, whom Milcah bore to him.' So I put the ring on her nose, and the bracelets on her wrists.
Markaasaan weyddiiyey oo ku idhi, Ina ayaad tahay? Oo waxay tidhi, Ina Betuu'el wiilkii Naaxoor ay Milkah u dhashay isaga. Markaasaan sangeliskii sanka u sudhay; dugaagadihiina gacmaha u geliyey.
48 Then I bowed my head and worshiped God, and blessed the God of my master Abraham, who had guided me on the right road to find the granddaughter of my master's brother for his son.
Kolkaasaan madaxa foororiyey, oo Rabbiga caabuday, oo waxaan ammaanay Rabbiga ah sayidkayga Ibraahim Ilaahiisa, oo igu soo hoggaamiyey jidkii toosnaa, inaan gabadhii sayidkayga walaalkiis u kaxeeyo wiilkiisa.
49 Now if you will show kindness and truth to my master, tell me. And if not, tell me, that I may turn to the right hand, or to the left."
Haddaba haddaad sayidkayga ula macaamiloonaysaan si raxmad leh oo daacad ah, ii sheega: haddii kalese ii sheega, inaan u leexdo xagga midigta ama xagga bidixda.
50 Then Laban and Bethuel answered, "The matter comes from God. We can't speak to you bad or good.
Markaasay Laabaan iyo Betuu'el jawaabeen oo yidhaahdeen, Waxanu wuxuu ka soo baxay xagga Rabbiga, annana kugulama hadli karno xumaan iyo samaan toona.
51 Look, Rebekah is before you. Take, and go, and let her become the wife of your master's son, as God has spoken."
Bal eeg, Rebeqah waa ku hor joogtaaye, kaxee oo la tag, oo ha noqoto sayidkaaga wiilkiisii naagtiisa, sidii Rabbigu ku hadlay.
52 And it happened when Abraham's servant heard their words, that he bowed himself down to the ground.
Markii uu Ibraahim addoonkiisii hadalkoodii maqlay ayuu Rabbiga u sujuuday.
53 Then the servant brought out articles of silver and articles of gold, and clothing, and gave them to Rebekah. And he also gave valuable gifts to her brother and to her mother.
Markaasuu addoonkii soo bixiyey jowharro lacag ah iyo jowharro dahab ah, iyo dhar, oo Rebeqah siiyey: walaalkeed iyo hooyadeedna wuxuu siiyey waxyaalo qaali ah.
54 Then he and the men who were with him ate and drank, and spent the night. Then they got up in the morning, and he said, "Send me away to my master."
Markaasay wax cuneen oo wax cabbeen, isaga iyo raggii la jirayba, habeenkii oo dhanna halkaasay joogeen. Aroortii bay kaceen oo wuxuu yidhi, Xagga sayidkaygii ii dira.
55 But her brother and her mother said, "Let the young woman stay with us ten days or so. After that she may go."
Walaalkeed iyo hooyadeedna waxay yidhaahdeen, Gabadhu ha nala joogto dhawr maalmood, ugu yaraan toban beri; dabadeedna way tegi doontaa.
56 But he said to them, "Do not delay me, seeing that he has made my journey successful. Send me away that I may go to my master."
Markaasuu ku yidhi iyagii, Rabbigu waa igu liibaaniyey jidkaygii, sidaas daraaddeed ha i raajinina, ee i dira inaan sayidkaygii u tago.
57 Then they said, "We will call the young woman and ask her."
Markaasay yidhaahdeen, Gabadha waannu u yeedhi doonnaa oo weyddiin doonnaa.
58 So they called Rebekah, and said to her, "Will you go with this man?" And she replied, "I will go."
Markaasay Rebeqah u yeedheen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Ninkan ma raacaysaa? Oo waxay tidhi, Haah, waan raacayaa.
59 So they sent away their sister Rebekah, and her nurse, and Abraham's servant, and his men.
Markaasay walaashood Rebeqah direen, iyada iyo midiidinteedii, iyo addoonkii Ibraahim, iyo raggiisiiba.
60 And they blessed Rebekah, and said to her, "Our sister, may you be the mother of thousands of ten thousands, and may your descendants possess the gate of those who hate them."
Oo Rebeqah bay u duceeyeen oo ku yidhaahdeen, Walaashayoy, kumanyaal kun hooyadood noqo, farcankaaguna kuwa iyaga neceb iriddooda ha hantiyeen.
61 And Rebekah and her female servants got ready, and they rode on the camels and followed the man. So the servant took Rebekah and went on his way.
Rebeqahna way kacday, iyada iyo gabdhaheediiba, oo waxay fuuleen awrtii, ninkiina way raaceen: addoonkiina wuu kaxeeyey Rebeqah, wuuna tegey.
62 Now Isaac had come from the way of Beer Lahai Roi, for he was living in the land of the Negev.
Isxaaqna wuxuu ka yimid xagga jidka Bi'ir Lahayroy, waayo, wuxuu degganaa dhulka Koonfureed.
63 And Isaac went out in the field to think in the early evening. And he lifted up his eyes and looked, and look, he saw camels approaching.
Oo gabbaldhicii ayaa Isxaaq berrinka u soo baxay inuu fikiro: markaasuu indhihiisa kor u taagay, oo wax fiiriyey, oo wuxuu arkay awr soo socota.
64 And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac, she dismounted from the camel.
Rebeqahna indhaheedii bay kor u taagtay, oo markay Isxaaq aragtay ayay ratigii ka degtay.
65 And she asked the servant, "Who is the man who is walking in the field to meet us?" And the servant said, "It is my master." Then she took her veil and covered herself.
Oo waxay addoonkii ku tidhi, Waa ayo ninkaas berrinka dhex socda, oo inaga hor imanaya? Addoonkiina wuxuu yidhi, Waa sayidkaygii. Markaasay indhashareerteedii qaadatay oo hagoogatay.
66 And the servant told Isaac all the things that he had done.
Addoonkiina wuxuu Isxaaq u sheegay wixii uu sameeyey oo dhan.
67 Then Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah's tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife. And he loved her. So Isaac was comforted after his mother's death.
Isxaaqna wuxuu iyadii soo geliyey teendhadii hooyadiis Saarah, Rebeqahna wuu guursaday, oo naagtiisii bay noqotay. Wuuna jeclaaday iyada, oo Isxaaq waxaa laga qalbi qabowjiyey geeridii hooyadiis.
