< Genesis 21 >

1 And Yahweh he visited Sarah just as he had said and he did Yahweh to Sarah just as he had spoken.
And YHWH has looked after Sarah as He has said, and YHWH does to Sarah as He has spoken;
2 And she conceived and she bore Sarah to Abraham a son of old age his to the appointed time which he had spoken with him God.
and Sarah conceives, and bears a son to Abraham, to his old age, at the appointed time that God has spoken of with him;
3 And he called Abraham [the] name of son his who had been born to him whom she had borne to him Sarah Isaac.
and Abraham calls the name of his son who is born to him, whom Sarah has borne to him—Isaac;
4 And he circumcised Abraham Isaac son his a son of eight days just as he had commanded him God.
and Abraham circumcises his son Isaac, [being] a son of eight days, as God has commanded him.
5 And Abraham [was] a son of one hundred year[s] when was born to him Isaac son his.
And Abraham [is] a son of one hundred years in his son Isaac being born to him,
6 And she said Sarah laughter he has made for me God everyone who hears he will laugh to me.
and Sarah says, “God has made laughter for me; everyone who is hearing laughs for me.”
7 And she said who? has he said to Abraham she has suckled children Sarah for I have borne a son of old age his.
She also says, “Who has said to Abraham, Sarah has suckled sons, that I have born a son for his old age?”
8 And he grew up the child and he was weaned and he prepared Abraham a feast great on [the] day was weaned Isaac.
And the boy grows, and is weaned, and Abraham makes a great banquet in the day of Isaac’s being weaned;
9 And she saw Sarah [the] son of Hagar the Egyptian whom she had borne to Abraham mocking.
and Sarah sees the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she has borne to Abraham, mocking,
10 And she said to Abraham drive out the slave woman this and son her for not he will inherit [the] son of the slave woman this with son my with Isaac.
and she says to Abraham, “Cast out this handmaid and her son; for the son of this handmaid has no possession with my son—with Isaac.”
11 And it was displeasing the matter exceedingly in [the] eyes of Abraham on [the] causes of son his.
And the thing is very wrong in the eyes of Abraham, for his son’s sake;
12 And he said God to Abraham may not it be displeasing in view your on the lad and on slave woman your all that she says to you Sarah listen to voice her for in Isaac it will be named of you offspring.
and God says to Abraham, “Let it not be wrong in your eyes because of the youth, and because of your handmaid: all that Sarah says to you—listen to her voice, for in Isaac is a seed called to you.
13 And also [the] son of the slave woman into a nation I will make him for [is] offspring your he.
As for the son of the handmaid also, for a nation I set him, because he [is] your seed.”
14 And he rose early Abraham - in the morning and he took food and a skin of water and he gave [them] to Hagar placing on shoulder her and the boy and he sent away her and she went and she wandered in [the] wilderness of Beer Sheba.
And Abraham rises early in the morning, and takes bread, and a bottle of water, and gives to Hagar (placing [it] on her shoulder), also the boy, and sends her out; and she goes on, and goes astray in the wilderness of Beer-Sheba;
15 And they were finished the water from the skin and she threw the boy under one of the bushes.
and the water is consumed from the bottle, and she places the boy under one of the shrubs.
16 And she went and she sat for herself from before at a distance like [the] shooters of a bow for she said may not I look on [the] death of the boy and she sat from before and she lifted up voice her and she wept.
And she goes and sits by herself opposite [him], far off, about a bow-shot, for she said, “Do not let me look on the death of the boy”; and she sits opposite [him], and lifts up her voice, and weeps.
17 And he heard God [the] sound of the lad and he called [the] angel of God - to Hagar from the heavens and he said to her what? [is] to you O Hagar may not you be afraid for he has heard God [the] sound of the lad at where he [is] there.
And God hears the voice of the youth; and the messenger of God calls to Hagar from the heavens and says to her, “What to you, Hagar? Do not fear; for God has listened to the voice of the youth where he [is];
18 Arise lift up the lad and take hold hand your on him for into a nation great I will make him.
rise, lift up the youth, and lay hold on him with your hand, for I set him for a great nation.”
19 And he opened God eyes her and she saw a well of water and she went and she filled the skin water and she gave a drink to the lad.
And God opens her eyes, and she sees a well of water, and she goes and fills the bottle [with] water, and causes the youth to drink;
20 And he was God with the lad and he grew up and he dwelt in the wilderness and he was a shooter a bowman.
and God is with the youth, and he grows, and dwells in the wilderness, and is an archer;
21 And he dwelt in [the] wilderness of Paran and she took for him mother his a wife from [the] land of Egypt.
and he dwells in the wilderness of Paran, and his mother takes for him a wife from the land of Egypt.
22 And it was at the time that and he said Abimelech and Phicol [the] commander of army his to Abraham saying God [is] with you in all that you [are] doing.
And it comes to pass at that time that Abimelech speaks—Phichol also, head of his host—to Abraham, saying, “God [is] with you in all that you are doing;
23 And therefore swear! to me by God here if you will deal falsely to me and to posterity my and to progeny my according to the loyalty which I have done with you you will do with me and with the land which you have sojourned in it.
and now, swear to me by God here: you do not lie to me, or to my continuator, or to my successor; according to the kindness which I have done with you—do with me, and with the land in which you have sojourned.”
24 And he said Abraham I I will swear.
And Abraham says, “I swear.”
25 And he rebuked Abraham Abimelech on [the] causes of [the] well of water which they had seized [the] servants of Abimelech.
And Abraham reasoned with Abimelech concerning the matter of a well of water which Abimelech’s servants have violently taken away,
26 And he said Abimelech not I know who? has he done the thing this and also you not you told to me and also I not I heard except this day.
and Abimelech says, “I have not known who has done this thing, and even you did not declare to me, and I also, I have not heard except today.”
27 And he took Abraham sheep and cattle and he gave [them] to Abimelech and they made [the] two of them a covenant.
And Abraham takes sheep and oxen, and gives to Abimelech, and they make, both of them, a covenant;
28 And he set Abraham seven ewe-lambs of the flock to alone them.
and Abraham sets seven lambs of the flock by themselves.
29 And he said Abimelech to Abraham what? [are] they seven ewe-lambs these which you have set to alone them.
And Abimelech says to Abraham, “What [are] they—these seven lambs which you have set by themselves?”
30 And he said that seven ewe-lambs you will take from hand my in order that it may become for me a witness for I dug the well this.
And he says, “For—the seven lambs you accept from my hand, so that it becomes a witness for me that I have dug this well”;
31 There-fore he called the place that Beer Sheba for there they swore an oath [the] two of them.
therefore he has called that place “Beer-Sheba,” for both of them have sworn there.
32 And they made a covenant at Beer Sheba and he arose Abimelech and Phicol [the] commander of army his and they returned to [the] land of [the] Philistines.
And they make a covenant in Beer-Sheba, and Abimelech rises—Phichol also, head of his host—and they return to the land of the Philistines;
33 And he planted a tamarisk tree in Beer Sheba and he called there on [the] name of Yahweh [the] God of perpetuity.
and [Abraham] plants a tamarisk in Beer-Sheba, and preaches there in the Name of YHWH, the perpetual God;
34 And he sojourned Abraham in [the] land of [the] Philistines days many.
and Abraham sojourns in the land of the Philistines many days.
