Genesis 20
1 And Abraham brake up from thence, towards the land of the South, and fixed his dwelling between Kadesh and Shur, so he sojourned in Gerar.
Na ka turia atu e Aperahama i reira ki te whenua i te tonga, a ka noho ki waenganui o Karehe, o Huru, a ka noho ia ki Kerara, he noho manene.
2 And Abraham said of Sarah his wife: My, sister, is she, —So Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.
Na ko Hara, ko tana wahine, ka kiia e Aperahama, Ko toku tuahine ia: a ka tonoa mai e Apimereke kingi o Kerara, tangohia atu ana a Hara.
3 Then God went in unto Abimelech, in a dream of the night, —and said to him, Behold thee dead! because of the woman whom thou hast taken, seeing that, she, is a married woman.
Na ka puta moemoea mai te Atua ki a Apimereke i te po, ka mea ki a ia, Nana, ka mate koe mo te wahine i tangohia nei i koe; he wahine hoki ia na te tane.
4 Now, Abimelech, had not come near unto her, —so he said, O My Lord! a nation even a righteous one, wilt thou slay?
Kahore ano ia a Apimereke kia tata noa ki a ia; a ka mea ia, E te Ariki, ka whakamate ano ranei koe i te iwi tika?
5 Had not, he himself, said to me, My sister, is she? and even she herself, said, My brother, is he? In the integrity of my heart and in the pureness of my hand, have I done this!
Kahore ranei ia i mea mai ki ahau, Ko toku tuahine ia? me te wahine hoki, i mea mai ano ia, Ko toku tungane ia: he tapatahi toku ngakau, he harakore hoki oku ringa i mea ai ahau i tenei mea.
6 And God said unto him in a dream, I, also, knew, that in the integrity of thy heart, thou didst this, so then, even I myself, withheld thee from sinning against me, for this reason, have I not suffered thee to touch her.
A ka korero moemoea mai te Atua ki a ia, Ae ra, i mohio tonu ahau he tapatahi tou ngakau i a koe i mea ai i tenei mea; i pupuri hoki ahau i a koe kei hara koe ki ahau; na reira koe te tukua ai e ahau kia pa ki a ia.
7 Now, therefore restore the man’s wife, for a prophet, is he, that he may pray for thee and live thou, —But if thou art not going to restore her, know, that thou shalt die, thou—and all that are thine.
Na, whakahokia akuanei te wahine a tena tangata; no te mea hoki he poropiti ia, a mana e inoi mou, a ka ora koe: ki te kore e whakahokia e koe, kia mohio koe, ka tino mate koe, koutou ko nga mea katoa i a koe.
8 So Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and spake all these words in their ears, and the men feared greatly.
Na i te ata tu ka maranga a Apimereke, karangatia ana ana tangata katoa, a korerotia ana enei mea katoa ki o ratou taringa: a nui atu te wehi o aua tangata.
9 Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said to him, What hast thou done to us? and wherein had I sinned against thee, that thou shouldst have brought in over me and over my kingdom, a sin so great? Deeds, which should not be done, hast thou done with me.
Na ka karanga a Apimereke ki a Aperahama, ka mea ki a ia, He mahi aha tenei au ki a matou? a he aha toku hara ki a koe, i takina mai ai e koe he hara nui ki ahau, ki toku kingitanga ano hoki? kua meinga e koe etahi mea ki ahau kahore nei i tika k ia mahia.
10 And Abimelech said unto Abraham, —What hadst thou seen, that thou shouldst have done this thing?
A ka mea ano a Apimereke ki a Aperahama, I kite koe i te aha i meatia ai tenei mea e koe?
11 And Abraham said, Because I thought, Surely there is no fear of God, in this place, —therefore will they slay me for the sake of my wife.
Na ka mea a Aperahama, I mahara hoki ahau, He pono, kahore te wehi o te Atua i tenei wahi; a ka patua ahau e ratou mo taku wahine.
12 Moreover also, in truth, my sister daughter of my father, she is, only not daughter of my mother, —so she became my wife.
He pono ano ia he tuahine ia noku, ko te tamahine a toku papa, otiia ehara i te tamahine na toku whaea; a ka noho hei wahine maku:
13 And so it came to pass when the Gods caused me to wander from my father’s house, that I said to her, This, is thy lovingkindness, wherewith thou shalt deal with me, —Into whatsoever place we enter, say of me My brother, is he.
A, i ta te Atua meatanga i ahau kia kopiko haere ake i te whare o toku papa, ka mea ahau ki a ia, Ko tou aroha tenei, hei whakaputa mau ki ahau: hei nga wahi katoa e tae ai taua, korero moku, Ko toku tungane ia.
14 Then took Abimelech sheep and oxen and men—servants and maid-servants, and gave to Abraham, —and restored to him Sarah his wife.
Na ka tikina e Apimereke he hipi, he kau, he pononga tane, he pononga wahine, a hoatu ana e ia ki a Aperahama, a whakahokia ana e ia a Hara, tana wahine, ki a ia.
15 And Abimelech, said, Lo! my land is before thee, —wherever it may seem good in thine eyes, dwell.
A ka mea a Apimereke, Nana, kei tou aroaro toku whenua: nohoia e koe te wahi e pai ana ki tau titiro.
16 And to Sarah, he said, Lo! I have given a thousand of silver unto thy brother: Lo! that is for thee as a covering of eyes, to all who are with thee, —And so in every way, hath right been done.
A ki a Hara i mea ia, Nana, kua hoatu e ahua ki tou tungane kotahi mano nga hiriwa: na, hei uhi tena mo ou kanohi ki nga tangata katoa i a koe; hei tohu hoki mo tou tika i katoa.
17 And Abraham prayed unto God, —and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maid-servants, so that they bare children,
Katahi ka inoi a Aperahama ki te Atua: na kua ora i te Atua a Apimereke, ratou ko tana wahine, ko ana pononga wahine; a ka whanau tamariki ratou.
18 For Yahweh, had restrained from bearing, every female of the house of Abimelech, —because of Sarah, wife of Abraham.
Kua tutakina rawatia hoki e Ihowa nga kopu katoa o te whare o Apimereke, mo Hara, mo te wahine a Aperahama.
