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],
Ita, adda napasamak a panagbisin iti daga, malaksid iti immuna a panagbisin a napasamak kadagidi al-aldaw ni Abraham. Napan ni Isaac kenni Abimelec nga ari dagiti Filisteo idiay 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!
Ita, nagparang ni Yahweh kenkuana ket kinunana, “Saanka a mapan idiay Egipto; agnaedka iti daga nga imbagak kenka a pagnaedam.
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.
Agtalinaedka iti daytoy a daga, ket addaakto kenka ken bendisionankanto; ta kenka ken kadagiti kaputotamto, itedkonto amin dagitoy a dagdaga, ken tungpalekto ti kari a sinapataak kenni Abraham nga amam.
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.
Paadduekto dagiti kaputotam a kas kadagiti bituen iti langit, ken itedkonto kadagiti kaputotam amin dagitoy a dagdaga. Mabendisionanto amin a nasion iti daga babaen kadagiti kaputotam.
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,”]
Aramidek daytoy gapu ta nagtulnog ni Abraham iti timekko ken tinungpalna dagiti pagannurotak, dagiti bilinko, dagiti alagadek, ken dagiti lintegko.”
6 [so Isaac] stayed there [along with his wife and sons].
Nagnaed ngarud ni Isaac idiay 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.”
Idi dinamag kenkuana dagiti lallaki iti dayta a lugar ti maipanggep iti asawana, kinunana, “Kabsatko isuna.” Mabuteng isuna a mangibaga nga, “Asawak isuna,” gapu ta ti napanunotna, “Papatayendak dagiti lallaki iti daytoy a lugar tapno alaenda ni Rebecca, gapu ta napintas unay isuna.”
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.
Kalpasan iti nabayag a tiempo a kaadda ni Isaac sadiay, nairana a timman-aw ni Abimelec nga ari dagiti Filisteo iti tawa. Nakitana a lalailoen ni Isaac ni Rebecca nga asawana.
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.”
Inayaban ni Abimelec ni Isaac ket kinunana, “Kitaem, awan dua dua nga asawam isuna. Apay nga imbagam a, 'Kabsatko isuna'?” Kinuna ni Isaac kenkuana,
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!”
“Gapu ta napanunotko a mabalin a papatayendak ti siasinoman tapno maalada isuna.” Kinuna ni Abimelec, “Ania daytoy nga inaramidmo kadakami? Mabalin a maysa kadagiti tattao ket silalakada a kinaidda ti asawam ket no napasamak ti kasta, nganngani nakami nga insarsarak iti pakabasolanmi.”
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!”
Isu a binallaagan ni Abimelec dagiti amin a tattao a kinunana, “Siasinoman a mangsagid iti daytoy a lalaki wenno iti asawana ket siguradonto a mapapatay.
12 Isaac planted grain in that land that year, and he harvested a very large crop, because Yahweh blessed him.
Nagmula ni Isaac kadagiti mulmula iti dayta a daga ken nagapit iti dayta met laeng a tawen iti mamingasut a kaadu, gapu ta binendisionan ni Yahweh isuna.
13 Isaac continued to acquire more and more possessions, until finally he became very wealthy.
Nagbalin a nabaknang ti lalaki, ken rimmang-ay a rimmang-ay inggana a nagbalin isuna a naindaklan unay.
14 He had large herds of sheep and goats and cattle, and many slaves. Because of that, the Philistine people envied him.
Addaan isuna kadagiti adu a karnero, ken bakbaka, ken dakkel a sangkabalayan. Ket immapal dagiti Filisteo kenkuana.
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.
Ita, amin dagiti bubon a kinali dagiti adipen ni amana kadagidi al-aldaw ni Abraham nga amana, ket sinullatan dagiti Filisteo babaen iti pananggaburda kadagitoy iti daga.
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.”
Kinuna ni Abimelec kenni Isaac, “Umadayoka kadakami, ta nabilbilegka nga adayo ngem kadakami.”
17 So Isaac [and his family] moved from there. They set up their tents in Gerar Valley [and started to live there].
Isu a pimmanaw ni Isaac manipud sadiay ket nagkampo idiay tanap ti Gerar, ket nagnaed sadiay.
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.
Kinali manen ni Isaac dagiti bubon, a kinalida kadagidi al-aldaw ni Abraham nga amana. Sinullatan dagitoy dagiti Filisteo kalpasan ti ipapatay ni Abraham. Pinanaganan ni Isaac dagiti bubon iti isu met laeng a nagnagan nga impanagan ti amana kadagitoy.
19 Isaac’s servants dug in the valley and discovered a well of fresh water.
Idi nagkali dagiti adipen ni Isaac idiay tanap, nakasarakda sadiay iti bubon ti agay-ayus a danum.
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.
Nakiapa dagiti agpaspastor a taga-Gerar kadagiti agpaspastor ni Isaac ket kinunada, “Kukuami daytoy a danum.” Isu a pinanaganan ni Isaac dayta a bubon iti “Esek,” gapu ta nakiapada kenkuana.
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]’.
Kalpasanna, nangkalida iti sabali pay a bubon, ket pinagaapanda manen dayta, isu a pinanagananna dayta a bubon iti “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.”
Pimmanaw isuna sadiay ket nangkalida iti sabali pay a bubon, ngem saandan a pinagaapaan dayta. Isu a pinanaganannam daytoy iti Rehobot, ket kinunana, “Ita nangaramid ni Yahweh iti lugar para kadatayo, ket rumang-aytayonto iti daga.
23 From there Isaac went up to Beersheba.
Ket manipud sadiay, simmang-at ni Isaac idiay Beerseba.
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.”
Nagparang ni Yahweh kenkuana iti dayta met laeng a rabii ket kinunana, “Siak ti Dios ni Abraham nga amam. Saanka nga agbuteng, ta addaak kenka ken bendisionankanto ken paadduek dagiti kaputotam, gapu kenni Abraham nga adipenko.”
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.
Nangbangon ni Isaac iti altar sadiay ket immawag isuna iti nagan ni Yahweh. Sadiayna nga impatakder ti kampona, ket nagkali dagiti adipenna iti bubon.
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.
Kalpasanna, napan ni Abimelec kenkuana manipud Gerar, a kaduana ni Ahuzzat a gayyemna, ken ni Ficol a kapitan ti armadana.
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?”
Kinuna ni Isaac kadakuada, “Apay nga immaykayo kaniak, idinto a kagurguradak ken pinapanawdak manipud kadakayo?”
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,
Ket kinunada, “Nalawag a nakitami nga adda ni Yahweh kenka. Isu nga inkeddengmi a masapul nga adda kari iti nagbaetantayo, wen, iti nagbaetantayo. Isu a mangaramidtayo iti katulagan,
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.”
a saannakaminto a dangran, a kas iti saanmi a panangdangran kenka, ken kas iti panangtratomi kenka iti nasayaat ken pinapanawdaka nga addaan kapia. Pudno, binendisionannaka ni Yahweh.”
30 So Isaac made a feast for them, and they all ate and drank.
Nangisagana ngarud ni Isaac iti padaya para kadakuada, ket nangan ken imminumda.
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.
Bimmangonda a nasapa iti bigbigat ket nagsapatada iti kari iti tunggal maysa. Kalpasanna, pinalubosan ida ni Isaac a pumanaw, ket pinanawanda isuna nga addaan kapia.
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!”
Iti dayta met laeng nga aldaw, dimteng dagiti adipen ni Isaac ket imbagada kenkuana ti maipanggep iti bubon a kinalida. Kinunada, “Adda nasarakanmi a danum.”
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’].
Pinanagananna ti bubon iti Seba, isu a ti nagan dayta a siudad ket Beerseba agingga kadagitoy nga aldaw.
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].
Idi agtawen ni Esau iti uppat a pulo, inasawana ni Judit a putot a babai ni Beeri a Heteo, kasta met ni Basemat a putot a babai ni Elon a Heteo.
35 Esau’s two wives made life miserable for Isaac and Rebekah.
Ket ladingit ti impapaayda kada Isaac ken Rebecca.
