Genesis 21
1 Now, Yahweh, visited Sarah, as he had said, —And Yahweh did for Sarah as he had spoken.
| وَٱفْتَقَدَ ٱلرَّبُّ سَارَةَ كَمَا قَالَ، وَفَعَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِسَارَةَ كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ. | ١ |
2 So, Sarah, conceived and bare, to Abraham, a son, for his old age, at the set time, of which God had spoken with him.
| فَحَبِلَتْ سَارَةُ وَوَلَدَتْ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ ٱبْنًا فِي شَيْخُوخَتِهِ، فِي ٱلْوَقْتِ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ ٱللهُ عَنْهُ. | ٢ |
3 And Abraham called the name of his son that was born to him, whom, Sarah, bare to him, Isaac.
| وَدَعَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ ٱسْمَ ٱبْنِهِ ٱلْمَوْلُودِ لَهُ، ٱلَّذِي وَلَدَتْهُ لَهُ سَارَةُ «إِسْحَاقَ». | ٣ |
4 And Abraham circumcised Isaac his son, when eight days old, —as God commanded him.
| وَخَتَنَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ إِسْحَاقَ ٱبْنَهُ وَهُوَ ٱبْنُ ثَمَانِيَةِ أَيَّامٍ كَمَا أَمَرَهُ ٱللهُ. | ٤ |
5 Now Abraham was a hundred years old, —when Isaac his son was born to him.
| وَكَانَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ ٱبْنَ مِئَةِ سَنَةٍ حِينَ وُلِدَ لَهُ إِسْحَاقُ ٱبْنُهُ. | ٥ |
6 And Sarah said, A laughing, hath God made for me, —Everyone that heareth will laugh with me.
| وَقَالَتْ سَارَةُ: «قَدْ صَنَعَ إِلَيَّ ٱللهُ ضِحْكًا. كُلُّ مَنْ يَسْمَعُ يَضْحَكُ لِي». | ٦ |
7 And she said—Who would have announced to Abraham, Sarah hath suckled children? yet have I borne a son, for his old age!
| وَقَالَتْ: «مَنْ قَالَ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ: سَارَةُ تُرْضِعُ بَنِينَ؟ حَتَّى وَلَدْتُ ٱبْنًا فِي شَيْخُوخَتِهِ!». | ٧ |
8 And the child grew, and was weaned, —and Abraham made a great banquet, on the day of the weaning of Isaac.
| فَكَبِرَ ٱلْوَلَدُ وَفُطِمَ. وَصَنَعَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ وَلِيمَةً عَظِيمَةً يَوْمَ فِطَامِ إِسْحَاقَ. | ٨ |
9 And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian woman whom she had borne to Abraham laughing!
| وَرَأَتْ سَارَةُ ٱبْنَ هَاجَرَ ٱلْمِصْرِيَّةِ ٱلَّذِي وَلَدَتْهُ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ يَمْزَحُ، | ٩ |
10 So she said to Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and her son, —for the son of this bondwoman must not inherit with my son with Isaac.
| فَقَالَتْ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ: «ٱطْرُدْ هَذِهِ ٱلْجَارِيَةَ وَٱبْنَهَا، لِأَنَّ ٱبْنَ هَذِهِ ٱلْجَارِيَةِ لَا يَرِثُ مَعَ ٱبْنِي إِسْحَاقَ». | ١٠ |
11 And the word was very grievous in the eyes of Abraham, —on account of his son.
| فَقَبُحَ ٱلْكَلَامُ جِدًّا فِي عَيْنَيْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ لِسَبَبِ ٱبْنِهِ. | ١١ |
12 And God said unto Abraham Let it not be grievous in thine eyes concerning the boy and concerning thy bondwoman, In all that Sarah may say unto thee, hearken to her voice, —For in Isaac, shall there be called to thee—a seed.
| فَقَالَ ٱللهُ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ: «لَا يَقْبُحُ فِي عَيْنَيْكَ مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلْغُلَامِ وَمِنْ أَجْلِ جَارِيَتِكَ. فِي كُلِّ مَا تَقُولُ لَكَ سَارَةُ ٱسْمَعْ لِقَوْلِهَا، لِأَنَّهُ بِإِسْحَاقَ يُدْعَى لَكَ نَسْلٌ. | ١٢ |
13 Yet even the son of the bondwoman, will I appoint to become, a nation, because thy seed, he is.
| وَٱبْنُ ٱلْجَارِيَةِ أَيْضًا سَأَجْعَلُهُ أُمَّةً لِأَنَّهُ نَسْلُكَ». | ١٣ |
14 So Abraham rose up early in the morning—and took bread and a skin of water and gave unto hagar, —putting them on her shoulder and the child, and sent her forth, —so she went her way and wandered, in the desert of Beer-sheba.
| فَبَكَّرَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ صَبَاحًا وَأَخَذَ خُبْزًا وَقِرْبَةَ مَاءٍ وَأَعْطَاهُمَا لِهَاجَرَ، وَاضِعًا إِيَّاهُمَا عَلَى كَتِفِهَا، وَٱلْوَلَدَ، وَصَرَفَهَا. فَمَضَتْ وَتَاهَتْ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ. | ١٤ |
15 And the water out of the skin was spent, —so she cast the child under one of the shrubs;
| وَلَمَّا فَرَغَ ٱلْمَاءُ مِنَ ٱلْقِرْبَةِ طَرَحَتِ ٱلْوَلَدَ تَحْتَ إِحْدَى ٱلْأَشْجَارِ، | ١٥ |
16 and went and sat her down over against him at a distance like as of such as draw the bow, for she said Let me not look upon the death of the child, —So she sat down over against him, and the boy lifted up his voice, and wept
| وَمَضَتْ وَجَلَسَتْ مُقَابِلَهُ بَعِيدًا نَحْوَ رَمْيَةِ قَوْسٍ، لِأَنَّهَا قَالَتْ: «لَا أَنْظُرُ مَوْتَ ٱلْوَلَدِ». فَجَلَسَتْ مُقَابِلَهُ وَرَفَعَتْ صَوْتَهَا وَبَكَتْ. | ١٦ |
17 And God heard the voice of the boy, and a messenger of God called unto Hagar out of the heavens; and said to her, What aileth thee, Hagar? Do not fear, for God hath hearkened unto the voice of the boy where he is.
| فَسَمِعَ ٱللهُ صَوْتَ ٱلْغُلَامِ، وَنَادَى مَلَاكُ ٱللهِ هَاجَرَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَقَالَ لَهَا: «مَا لَكِ يَا هَاجَرُ؟ لَا تَخَافِي، لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ قَدْ سَمِعَ لِصَوْتِ ٱلْغُلَامِ حَيْثُ هُوَ. | ١٧ |
18 Arise lift up the boy, and hold him up with thy hand, —for, a great nation, will I make him.
| قُومِي ٱحْمِلِي ٱلْغُلَامَ وَشُدِّي يَدَكِ بِهِ، لِأَنِّي سَأَجْعَلُهُ أُمَّةً عَظِيمَةً». | ١٨ |
19 And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water, —and went and filled the skin with water, and gave drink unto the boy
| وَفَتَحَ ٱللهُ عَيْنَيْهَا فَأَبْصَرَتْ بِئْرَ مَاءٍ، فَذَهَبَتْ وَمَلَأَتِ ٱلْقِرْبَةَ مَاءً وَسَقَتِ ٱلْغُلَامَ. | ١٩ |
20 And it came to pass that God was with the boy, and he grew, —and dwelt in the desert, and he became as he grew up, an archer,
| وَكَانَ ٱللهُ مَعَ ٱلْغُلَامِ فَكَبِرَ، وَسَكَنَ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، وَكَانَ يَنْمُو رَامِيَ قَوْسٍ. | ٢٠ |
21 And he dwelt in the desert of Paran, —and his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt.
| وَسَكَنَ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ فَارَانَ، وَأَخَذَتْ لَهُ أُمُّهُ زَوْجَةً مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ. | ٢١ |
22 And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech, with Phicol chieftain of his host, spake unto Abraham, saying, —God, is with thee in all that, thou art doing.
| وَحَدَثَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلزَّمَانِ أَنَّ أَبِيمَالِكَ وَفِيكُولَ رَئِيسَ جَيْشِهِ كَلَّمَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَائِلَيْنِ: «ٱللهُ مَعَكَ فِي كُلِّ مَا أَنْتَ صَانِعٌ. | ٢٢ |
23 Now, therefore, swear to me by God, here, that thou wilt not deal falsely by me, nor by mine offspring, nor by my descendants, —according to the lovingkindness wherewith I have dealt with thee, shalt thou deal with me, and with the land wherein thou hast sojourned.
| فَٱلْآنَ ٱحْلِفْ لِي بِٱللهِ هَهُنَا أَنَّكَ لَا تَغْدُرُ بِي وَلَا بِنَسْلِي وَذُرِّيَّتِي، كَٱلْمَعْرُوفِ ٱلَّذِي صَنَعْتُ إِلَيْكَ تَصْنَعُ إِلَيَّ وَإِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي تَغَرَّبْتَ فِيهَا». | ٢٣ |
24 And Abraham said, I, will swear.
| فَقَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ: «أَنَا أَحْلِفُ». | ٢٤ |
25 But Abraham reproved Abimelech, —on account of the well of water, which the servants of Abimelech had seized.
| وَعَاتَبَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ أَبِيمَالِكَ لِسَبَبِ بِئْرِ ٱلْمَاءِ ٱلَّتِي ٱغْتَصَبَهَا عَبِيدُ أَبِيمَالِكَ. | ٢٥ |
26 And Abimelech said, I know not, who hath done this thing, —nor hast even thou, ever told me, nor have even I, ever heard, save to-day.
| فَقَالَ أَبِيمَالِكُ: «لَمْ أَعْلَمْ مَنْ فَعَلَ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرَ. أَنْتَ لَمْ تُخْبِرْنِي، وَلَا أَنَا سَمِعْتُ سِوَى ٱلْيَوْمِ». | ٢٦ |
27 And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave to Abimelech, —and they two solemnised a covenant
| فَأَخَذَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ غَنَمًا وَبَقَرًا وَأَعْطَى أَبِيمَالِكَ، فَقَطَعَا كِلَاهُمَا مِيثَاقًا. | ٢٧ |
28 So then Abraham set seven young sheep of the flock by them-selves,
| وَأَقَامَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ سَبْعَ نِعَاجٍ مِنَ ٱلْغَنَمِ وَحْدَهَا. | ٢٨ |
29 And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What, then mean these seven young sheep here, which thou hast set by themselves?
| فَقَالَ أَبِيمَالِكُ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ: «مَا هِيَ هَذِهِ ٱلسَّبْعُ ٱلنِّعَاجِ ٱلَّتِي أَقَمْتَهَا وَحْدَهَا؟» | ٢٩ |
30 And he said, The seven young sheep, shalt thou take at my hand, —that they may serve as my witness, that I digged this well.
| فَقَالَ: «إِنَّكَ سَبْعَ نِعَاجٍ تَأْخُذُ مِنْ يَدِي، لِكَيْ تَكُونَ لِي شَهَادَةً بِأَنِّي حَفَرْتُ هَذِهِ ٱلْبِئْرَ». | ٣٠ |
31 On this account, was the name of that place called Beer-sheba ["oath well"], —because there, had they two sworn.
| لِذَلِكَ دَعَا ذَلِكَ ٱلْمَوْضِعَ «بِئْرَ سَبْعٍ»، لِأَنَّهُمَا هُنَاكَ حَلَفَا كِلَاهُمَا. | ٣١ |
32 And when they had solemnised a covenant in Beer-sheba, —then arose Abimelech, with Phicol chief of his host, and returned unto the land of the Philistines.
| فَقَطَعَا مِيثَاقًا فِي بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ، ثُمَّ قَامَ أَبِيمَالِكُ وَفِيكُولُ رَئِيسُ جَيْشِهِ وَرَجَعَا إِلَى أَرْضِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ. | ٣٢ |
33 Then planted he a tamarisk tree in Beer-sheba, —and called there on the name of Yahweh the age-abiding GOD.
| وَغَرَسَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ أَثْلًا فِي بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ، وَدَعَا هُنَاكَ بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْإِلَهِ ٱلسَّرْمَدِيِّ. | ٣٣ |
34 So Abraham sojourned in the land of the Philistines many days.
| وَتَغَرَّبَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فِي أَرْضِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ أَيَّامًا كَثِيرَةً. | ٣٤ |
