Genesis 20
1 And Abraham journeyed from thence towards the south country, and dwelt between Kadash and Shur, and sojourned in Gerar.
Dia nifindra niala teo Abrahama nankany amin’ ny tany atsimo ka nitoetra teo anelanelan’ i Kadesy sy Sora ary nivahiny tao Gerara izy.
2 And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, she is my sister: And Abimelech king of Gerar sent and took Sarah.
Ary hoy ny filazan’ i Abrahama an’ i Saraha vadiny: Anabaviko izy; dia naniraka Abimeleka, mpanjakan’ i Gerara, nampaka an’ i Saraha.
3 But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, Behold, thou [art but] a dead man, on account of the woman whom thou hast taken: for she [is] a man's wife.
Fa Andriamanitra nankeo amin’ i Abimeleka, tamin’ ny nofy nony alina, ka nanao taminy hoe: Indro, fa ho faty ianao noho ny vehivavy izay nalainao, fa vadin’ olona izy.
4 But Abimelech had not come near her: and he said, LORD, wilt thou also slay a righteous nation?
Fa Abimeleka anefa tsy mbola nanakaiky azy, ka hoy izy: Tompo ô, hovonoinao koa va izay firenena marina?
5 Said he not to me, She [is] my sister? and she, even she herself said, He [is] my brother: in the integrity of my heart, and innocence of my hands have I done this.
Tsy ralehilahy va no nilaza tamiko hoe: Anabaviko izy? ary ravahivavy koa nanao hoe: Anadahiko izy; koa tamin’ ny fahatsoran’ ny foko sy ny fahadiovan’ ny tanako no nanaovako izany.
6 And God said to him in a dream, Yea, I know that thou didst this in the integrity of thy heart; for I also withheld thee from sinning against me: therefore I suffered thee not to touch her.
Ary hoy Andriamanitra taminy tamin’ ny nofy: Eny ary, fantatro ihany fa tamin’ ny fahatsoran’ ny fonao no nanaovanao izany; ary Izaho kosa dia niaro anao mba tsy hanota amiko; koa izany no tsy namelako anao hanendry azy.
7 Now therefore restore to the man [his] wife, for he [is] a prophet, and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live: and if thou shalt not restore [her], know thou that thou shalt surely die, thou and all that [are] thine.
Ary ankehitriny avereno ny vadin-dralehilahy, fa mpaminany izy ka hifona ho anao, dia ho velona ianao; fa raha tsy averinao izy, aoka ho fantatrao fa ho faty tokoa ianao, dia ianao mbamin’ izay rehetra mety ho anao.
8 Therefore Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ears: and the men were greatly afraid.
Dia nifoha maraina koa Abimeleka ka niantso ny mpanompony rehetra ary nanambara izany rehetra izany teo anatrehany; ka dia raiki-tahotra indrindra ny olona.
9 Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said to him, What has thou done to us? and in what have I offended thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? thou hast done deeds to me that ought not to be done.
Ary Abimeleka dia nampaka an’ i Abrahama ka nanao taminy hoe: Inona izao nataonao taminay izao? ary inona izao ratsy nataoko taminao izao no dia nahatonga heloka lehibe tamiko sy tamin’ ny fanjakako ianao? zavatra izay tsy tokony hatao no nataonao tamiko.
10 And Abimelech said to Abraham, What sawest thou, that thou hast done this thing?
Ary hoy koa Abimeleka tamin’ i Abrahama: Inona no hitanao, no nanao izany zavatra izany ianao?
11 And Abraham said, Because I thought, surely the fear of God [is] not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife's sake.
Dia hoy Abrahama: Satria hoy izaho: Tsy misy fahatahorana an’ Andriamanitra tokoa amin’ ity tany ity, ka hovonoin’ ny olona aho noho ny amin’ ny vadiko.
12 And yet indeed [she is] my sister: she [is] the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.
Nefa anabaviko ihany tokoa izy, satria zanakavavin’ ny raiko, fa tsy mba zanakavavin’ ny reniko; ka dia nanambady azy aho.
13 And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father's house, that I said to her, This [is] thy kindness which thou shalt show to me; At every place whither we shall come, say of me, He [is] my brother.
Ary raha nampifindrafindra ahy hiala tamin’ ny tranon’ ny raiko Andriamanitra, dia hoy izaho tamin’ ny vadiko: Izao no soa hataonao amiko any amin’ izay tany rehetra halehantsika dia lazao aho hoe: Anadahiko izy.
14 And Abimelech took sheep, and oxen, and men-servants, and women-servants, and gave [them] to Abraham, and restored to him Sarah his wife.
Ary Abimeleka naka ondry sy omby sy ankizilahy ary ankizivavy, ka nomeny an’ i Abrahama ireny; ary Saraha vadiny dia naveriny teo aminy.
15 And Abimelech said, Behold, my land [is] before thee: dwell where it pleaseth thee.
Ary hoy Abimeleka: Indro, eo anoloanao ny taniko; mitoera eo amin’ izay tianao.
16 And to Sarah he said, Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand [pieces] of silver: behold, he [is] to thee a covering of the eyes, to all that [are] with thee, and with all [other]: thus she was reproved.
Ary hoy kosa izy tamin’ i Saraha: Indro, efa nomeko sekely volafotsy arivo ny anadahinao; indro, ho fanampena-maso aminao izany, dia amin’ izay rehetra momba anao: ka dia efa nahazo ny rariny ianao ny amin’ izany rehetra izany.
17 So Abraham prayed to God: and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maid-servants, and they bore [children].
Ary Abrahama dia nifona tamin’ Andriamanitra; ary Andriamanitra nahasitrana an’ i Abimeleka sy ny vadiny mbamin’ ny mpanompovaviny; dia niteraka izy ireo.
18 For the LORD had made barren all the females of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham's wife.
Fa Jehovah efa nahamomba tokoa ny vehivavy rehetra tamin’ ny ankohonan’ i Abimeleka noho ny amin’ i Saraha, vadin’ i Abrahama.
