Genesis 26
1 Some time later there was a severe (famine/scarcity of food) there. That was different from the famine that occurred when Abraham was alive. So Isaac went [southeast] to Gerar [town, to talk] to Abimelech, the king of the Philistine people-group. [What happened was this: Isaac considered going to Egypt],
Ug may gutom sa yuta, labut pa sa unang gutom sa mga adlaw ni Abraham; ug miadto si Isaac kang Abimelech nga hari sa mga Filistihanon sa Gerar.
2 but Yahweh appeared to him and said, “Do not go down to Egypt! Live in the land where I will tell you to go!
Ug mitungha kaniya si Jehova, ug siya miingon kaniya: Dili ka maglugsong ngadto sa Egipto: pumuyo ka sa yuta nga akong igaingon kanimo:
3 Stay in this land for a while, and I will help you and bless you, because it is to you and your descendants that I will give all these lands, and I will do what I solemnly promised to your father.
Pumuyo ka niining yutaa, ug ako magauban kanimo, ug ikaw pagapanalanginan ko; kay kanimo ug sa imong kaliwatan, igahatag ko ngatanan kining mga yutaa, ug pagatukoron ko ang panumpa nga gipanumpaan ko kang Abraham nga imong amahan.
4 I will cause your descendants to be as numerous as the stars in the sky. I will give to your descendants all these lands, and I will cause your descendants to be a blessing to the people of [MTY] all nations on the earth.
Ug pagapadaghanon ko ang imong kaliwatan ingon sa mga bitoon sa langit, ug igahatag ko sa imong kaliwatan kining tanan nga mga yuta; ug ang tanang mga nasud sa yuta mapanalanginan diha sa imong kaliwat:
5 I will do that because your father Abraham obeyed me. He obeyed everything that I told him to do, everything that I declared and all the laws that I gave him.” So Isaac [went and asked King Abimelech if he would permit him to live in the Gerar area. The king said, “Okay,”]
Kay nagpatalinghug si Abraham sa akong tingog, ug gibantayan niya ang akong tulomanon, ang akong mga sugo, ang akong mga pamatasan, ug ang akong mga balaod.
6 [so Isaac] stayed there [along with his wife and sons].
Busa, mipuyo si Isaac sa Gerar.
7 When the men in Gerar [town] asked who Rebekah was, Isaac said, “She is my sister.” He said that because he was afraid to say, “She is my wife.” He thought, “Rebekah is very beautiful, so they will want her. [If I say that she is my sister, they know they will have to negotiate about a bride price because I am her older brother; but if I say that she is my wife, no negotiation will be possible]. They will just kill me to get her.”
Ug ang mga tawo niadtong dapita nanagpangutana kaniya mahatungod sa iyang asawa; ug siya mitubag: Siya akong igsoon nga babaye; kay nahadlok siya sa pag-ingon: Siya akong asawa; kay tingali, matud niya, patyon ako sa mga tawo niining dapita tungod kang Rebeca; kay maanyag siya nga pagatan-awon.
8 When Isaac had been there a long time, one day Abimelech, the king of the Philistine people-group, looked down from a window [in his palace] and was surprised to see Isaac caressing his wife Rebekah.
Ug nahitabo nga, sa nagpuyo siya didto sa daghang mga adlaw, si Abimelech, nga hari sa mga Filistihanon, mitambo sa usa ka tamboanan, ug hingkit-an niya si Isaac nga naglingawlingaw uban kang Rebeca nga iyang asawa.
9 So Abimelech summoned Isaac and said to him, “Now I realize that she is really your wife! So why did you say, ‘She is my sister’?” Isaac replied to him, “I said that because I thought that someone here might kill me to get her.”
Ug gitawag ni Abimelech si Isaac, ug miingon siya: Ania karon, siya mao, sa pagkamatuod, ang imong asawa busa, nganong miingon ka: Siya akong igsoon nga babaye? Ug si Isaac mitubag kaniya: Kay miingon ako, tingali ug mamatay ako tungod kaniya.
10 Abimelech said, “(You should not have done this to us!/Why did you do this?) [RHQ] One of our people might have (had sex with/slept with) [EUP] your wife, and you would have caused us to be guilty of a great sin!”
Ug si Abimelech miingon: Unsa kining gibuhat mo kanamo? Ang usa sa mga tawo diriyut makatipon paghigda sa imong asawa, ug ikaw mao unta ang magadala ug sala sa ibabaw kanamo.
11 Then Abimelech commanded all his people, saying, “Do not harm/molest this man or his wife! Anyone who does that will surely be executed!”
Unya si Abimelech nagsugo sa tanan nga mga tawo nga nagaingon: Ang magatandog niining tawohana kun sa iyang asawa, sa pagkamatuod, pagapatyon siya.
12 Isaac planted grain in that land that year, and he harvested a very large crop, because Yahweh blessed him.
Ug nagpugas si Isaac niadtong yutaa, ug nakapanuig niadtong tuiga ug usa ka gatus ka pilo, kay siya gipanalanginan ni Jehova.
13 Isaac continued to acquire more and more possessions, until finally he became very wealthy.
Ug ang tawo midaku ug nagpadayon sa pagdaku hangtud nga siya nahimo nga labing daku gayud.
14 He had large herds of sheep and goats and cattle, and many slaves. Because of that, the Philistine people envied him.
Ug nakapanag-iya siya sa mga panon sa mga carnero, ug nakapanag-iya sa mga panon sa mga vaca, ug daku nga panimalay: Ug nangasina kaniya ang mga Filistihanon.
15 So all the wells that the servants of his father Abraham had dug during the time when he was alive, the people filled up with dirt.
Karon ang tanan nga mga atabay nga gipangalot sa mga binatonan sa iyang amahan nga si Abraham gipanabonan sa mga Filistihanon, ug kini gipanagpuno nila sa yuta.
16 Then Abimelech said to Isaac, “You people have become more numerous than we are, so I want you to get out of our area.”
Ug miingon si Abimelech kang Isaac: Pahilayo ka kanamo; kay ikaw labi pa gayud nga gamhanan kay kanamo.
17 So Isaac [and his family] moved from there. They set up their tents in Gerar Valley [and started to live there].
Ug si Isaac mipahawa didto. Ug gipatindog niya ang iyang mga balongbalong sa walog sa Gerar, ug mipuyo didto.
18 There were several wells in that area that had been dug when Isaac’s father Abraham was living, but Philistine people had filled them up [with dirt] after Abraham died. Now Isaac and his servants removed the dirt, and Isaac gave the wells the same names that his father had given to them.
Ug gikalot pag-usab ni Isaac ang mga atabay sa tubig, nga ilang gikalot sa mga adlaw ni Abraham, nga iyang amahan; kay gitabonan sa mga Filistihanon sa tapus mamatay si Abraham. Ug kini gihinganlan niya ingon sa mga ngalan nga gibutang kanila sa iyang amahan.
19 Isaac’s servants dug in the valley and discovered a well of fresh water.
Ug ang mga binatonan ni Isaac nanagkalot didto sa walog, ug hingkaplagan nila didto ang usa ka atabay sa mga tubig nga nagatubod.
20 But other men who lived in Gerar [Valley] who took care of their animals argued/quarreled with the men who took care of Isaac’s animals, and said, “The water in this well is ours!” So Isaac named the well Esek, which means ‘dispute’, because they disputed about who owned it.
Ug ang mga magbalantay sa kahayupan sa Gerar nanagpakig-away sa mga magbalantay sa kahayupan ni Isaac, nga nagaingon: Ang tubig amo man. Ug gihinganlan ang atabay Esek, kay sila nakig-away kaniya.
21 Then Isaac’s servants dug another well, but they quarreled about who owned that one also. So Isaac named it Sitnah, [which means ‘opposition]’.
Ug nagkalot na usab sila ug lain nga atabay, ug nakig-away usab sila tungod niini; ug kini gihinganlan niya Sitnah.
22 They moved on from there and dug another well, but this time no one quarreled about who owned it. So Isaac named it Rehoboth, [which means ‘uninhabited place’], saying, “Yahweh has given us an uninhabited place to live in, a place that is not wanted by other people, and we will become very prosperous here.”
Ug mipahawa siya didto, ug mikalot ug laing atabay; ug alang niana wala na sila makig-away; ug kini gihinganlan niya Rehoboth, ug miingon siya: Sanglit karon si Jehova mihatag ug dapit alang kanato ug magadaghan kita sa yuta.
23 From there Isaac went up to Beersheba.
Ug siya mitungas gikan didto padulong sa Beer-seba.
24 The first night that he was there, Yahweh appeared to him and said, “I am God, whom your father Abraham worshiped. Do not be afraid of anything. I will help you and bless you, and because of what I promised my servant Abraham, I will greatly increase the number of your descendants.”
Ug mitungha kaniya ang Ginoo niadtong gabhiona, ug miingon: Ako mao ang Dios ni Abraham, nga imong amahan; dili ka mahadlok kay ako magauban kanimo ug ikaw pagapanalanginan ko, ug pagapadaghanon ko ang imong kaliwatan tungod kang Abraham nga akong ulipon.
25 So Isaac built a stone altar there [and offered a sacrifice] to worship Yahweh. He [and his servants] set up their tents there, and his servants started to dig a well.
Ug si Isaac mipatindog didto ug usa ka halaran, ug nangaliya siya sa ngalan ni Jehova; ug gipatindog niya didto ang iyang balongbalong; ug ang mga binatonan ni Isaac nagkalot ug usa ka atabay.
26 [While they were digging the well], King Abimelech came to Isaac from Gerar, along with Ahuzzath, his advisor, and Phicol, the commander of his army.
Unya si Abimelech miadto kaniya gikan sa Gerar ug si Ahussath, nga abyan niya, ug si Pichol, nga capitan sa iyang kasundalohan.
27 Isaac asked them, “You (acted in a hostile way toward me/treated me like an enemy) before, and sent me away. So why have you come to me now?”
Ug miingon kanila si Isaac: Nganong mianhi kamo kanako, sa nakita nga kamo nagadumot kanako, nga gisalikway man gani ninyo ako sa halayo kaninyo?
28 One of them answered, “We have seen that Yahweh helps you. So we said to each other, ‘We should have an agreement between us and you. We should make a peace treaty with you,
Ug sila mingtubag: Nakita namo sa dayag gayud nga si Jehova nag-uban kanimo ug nanag-ingon kami: Himoon ta ang usa ka panumpa sa taliwala kanato, bisan sa taliwala kanamo ug kanimo, ug magapakigsaad kami kanimo;
29 stating that you will not harm us, in the same way that we did not molest [EUP] you.’ We always treated you well and sent you away peacefully. And now Yahweh is blessing you.”
Aron dili ka magabuhat ug dautan alang kanamo, maingon nga kami wala magatandog kanimo, ug ingon nga kaming tanan nagbuhat ug maayo alang kanimo, ug ikaw gipagikan namo sa pakigdait; ikaw karon mao ang gibulahan ni Jehova.
30 So Isaac made a feast for them, and they all ate and drank.
Ug siya nagbuhat ug kombira alang kanila, ug nangaon sila ug nanginum;
31 Early the next morning they all (swore/solemnly promised) each other that they would do what they had promised. Then Isaac sent them home peacefully.
Ug mingbangon sila sa kaadlawon, ug nanagpanumpa sila ang usa sa usa; ug gipagikan sila ni Isaac, ug sila nanglakat gikan kaniya sa pakigdait.
32 That day Isaac’s servants came to him and told him about the well that they had finished digging. They said, “We found water in the well!”
Ug niadtong adlawa gayud nahitabo nga miabut ang mga sulogoon ni Isaac, ug nanagsugilon kaniya mahatungod sa atabay nga ilang gikalot ug sila nanag-ingon kaniya: Ang tubig hingkaplagan namo.
33 Isaac named the well Shibah, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘oath’]. To the present time the town there has the name Beersheba [which means ‘Friendship Agreement Well’].
Ug kini gihinganlan niya ug Seba: tungod niini, ang ngalan niadtong lungsora Beer-seba hangtud niining adlawa.
34 When Esau was 40 years old, he married Judith, the daughter of Beeri, and Basemath, the daughter of Elon. Both of those women were descendants of Heth, [not from Isaac’s clan].
Ug sa may panuigon na si Esau nga kap-atan ka tuig nangasawa siya kang Judith, anak nga babaye ni Beeri, nga Hetehanon, ug kang Basemat, anak nga babaye ni Elon, nga Hetehanon.
35 Esau’s two wives made life miserable for Isaac and Rebekah.
Ug kini sila mao ang kapaitan sa kalag alang kang Isaac ug kang Rebeca.
