< Genesis 24 >
1 Forsothe Abraham was eld, and of many daies, and the Lord hadde blessid hym in alle thingis.
Yeroo sana Abrahaam dulloomee, umuriin isaa akka malee dheeratee ture; Waaqayyos waan hundumaan isa eebbise.
2 And he seide to the eldere seruaunt of his hows, that was souereyn on alle thingis that he hadde, Put thou thin hond vndur myn hipe,
Innis tajaajilaa mana isaa hangafa kan waan inni qabu hunda irratti itti gaafatamaa taʼeen akkana jedhe; “Mee harka kee gudeeda koo jala kaaʼi.
3 that Y coniure thee bi the Lord God of heuene and of erthe, that thou take not a wijf to my sone of the douytris of Chanaan, among whiche Y dwelle;
Ani akka ati intallan warra Kanaʼaan kanneen ani gidduu isaanii jiraadhuu keessaa ilma kootiif niitii hin fidneef Waaqayyo Waaqa samiitii fi Waaqa lafaatiin kakattu nan barbaada;
4 but that thou go to my lond and kynrede, and therof take a wijf to my sone Ysaac.
garuu gara biyya kootii fi gara firoota koo dhaqiitii ilma koo Yisihaaqiif niitii barbaadi.”
5 The seruaunt aunswerde, If the womman nyle come with me in to this lond, whether Y owe lede ayen thi sone to the place, fro which thou yedist out?
Tajaajilaan sun immoo, “Yoo dubartiin sun na wajjin gara biyya kanaa dhufuuf fedhii qabaachuu baatte hoo? Ani ilma kee gara biyya ati keessaa dhufte sanaatti deebisee geessuun qabaa?” jedhee isa gaafate.
6 Abraham seide, Be war, lest ony tyme thou lede ayen thidur my sone;
Abrahaamis akkana isaan jedhe; “Ati akka ilma koo deebiftee biyya sanatti hin geessine of eeggadhu.
7 the Lord of heuene that took me fro the hows of my fadir, and fro the lond of my birthe, which spak to me, and swoor, and seide, Y schal yyue this lond to thi seed, he schal sende his aungel bifore thee, and thou schalt take fro thennus a wijf to my sone; forsothe if the womman nyle sue thee,
Waaqayyo Waaqni samii inni mana abbaa kootii fi biyya ani itti dhaladhe keessaa na fidee, ‘Ani biyya kana sanyii keetiif nan kenna’ jechuudhaan natti dubbatee kakatee waadaa naa seene sun akka ati achii ilma kootiif niitii fidduuf ergamaa isaa fuula kee dura ni erga.
8 thou schalt not be holdun bi the ooth; netheles lede not ayen my sone thidur.
Yoo dubartiin sun si wajjin dhufuuf fedhii qabaachuu baatte immoo ati kakuu koo kana irraa bilisa taata. Ilma koo garuu gonkumaa achi hin deebisin.”
9 Therfore the seruaunt puttide his hond vndur the hipe of Abraham, his lord, and swoor to him on this word.
Kanaafuu tajaajilaan sun harka isaa gudeeda gooftaa isaa Abrahaam jala kaaʼee waaʼee waan kanaa kakateef.
10 And he took ten camels of the floc of his lord, and yede forth, and bar with him of alle the goodis of his lord; and he yede forth, and cam to Mesopotanye, to the citee of Nachor.
Tajaajilaan sunis gaala gooftaa isaa keessaa kudhan fudhatee gooftaa isaa biraa immoo kennaawwan filatamoo gosa hundaa feʼatee qajeele; innis magaalaa Naahoor ishee kaaba dhiʼa Phaadaan Arraam keessatti argamtuu dhaqe.
11 And whanne he hadde maad the camels to reste with out the citee, bisidis the pit of watir, in the euentid, in that tyme in which wymmen ben wont to go out to drawe watir,
Innis akka gaalawwan sun magaalattiin alatti boolla bishaanii cina jijilbeenfatan godhe; yeroon sun gara galgalaa yeroo itti dubartoonni bishaan waraabbachuu baʼan ture.
12 he seide, Lord God of my lord Abraham, Y biseche, meete with me to dai, and do mersi with my lord Abraham.
Innis akkana jedhee kadhate; “Yaa Waaqayyo Waaqa gooftaa koo Abrahaam, harʼa na milkeessiitii gooftaa koo Abrahaamiif garaa laafi.
13 Lo! Y stonde nyy the welle of watir, and the douytris of enhabiters of this citee schulen go out to drawe watir;
Kunoo, ani burqaa kana bira dhaabadheen jira; intallan warra magaalaa kanaas bishaan waraabbachuuf as baʼaa jiru.
14 therfor the damysel to which Y schal seie, Bowe doun thi watir pot that Y drynke, and schal answere, Drynke thou, but also Y schal yyue drynke to thi camels, thilke it is which thou hast maad redi to thi seruaunt Ysaac; and bi this Y schal vndirstonde that thou hast do mersi with my lord Abraham.
Intalli ani, ‘Maaloo akka ani bishaan dhuguuf okkotee kee gad qabi’ jedheenii isheenis, ‘Dhugi; ani gaalawwan kees siifin obaasaa’ naan jettu ishee ati garbicha kee Yisihaaqiif filatte haa taatu. Anis kanaan akka ati gooftaa kootiif garaa laafte beeka.”
15 And he hadde not yit fillid the wordis with ynne hym silf, and lo! Rebecca, the douytir of Batuel, sone of Melcha, wijf of Nachor, brothir of Abraham, yede out, hauynge a watir pot in hir schuldre;
Utuu inni kadhatee hin fixatin Ribqaan okkotee ishee gatiittiitti baadhattee dhufte. Isheenis intala ilma Miilkaa kan Betuuʼeel jedhamu sanaa turte; Miilkaan immoo niitii obboleessa Abrahaam kan Naahoor jedhamu sanaa ti.
16 a damysel ful comeli, and faireste virgyn, and vnknowun of man. Sotheli sche cam doun to the welle, and fillide the watir pot, and turnide ayen.
Intalli sunis akka malee bareedduu fi durba turte; dhiirri tokko iyyuu ishee wajjin hin ciifne. Isheenis gara burqaatti gad buutee okkotee isheetti bishaan guuttattee ol deebite.
17 And the seruaunt mette hir, and seide, Yyue thou to me a litil of the watir of thi pot to drynke.
Tajaajilaan sunis ishee simachuuf itti fiigee, “Maaloo okkotee kee keessaa bishaan xinnoo ishee naa kenni” jedheen.
18 Which answerde, Drynke thou, my lord. And anoon sche dide doun the watir pot on hir schuldre, and yaf drynk to hym.
Isheenis, “Yaa gooftaa ko, dhugi” jetteenii daftee okkotee ishee harkatti gad buufattee bishaan dhugaatii kenniteef.
19 And whanne he hadde drunke, sche addide, But also Y schal drawe watir to thi camelis, til alle drynken.
Isheenis erga bishaan isa obaaftee booddee, “Ani gaalawwan keetiifis hamma isaan dhuganii dheebuu baʼanitti nan waraaba” jette.
20 And sche helde out the watir pot in trouyis, and ran ayen to the pit, to drawe watir, and sche yaf watir drawun to alle the camels.
Daftees okkotee ishee keessaa bidiruutti garagalchitee ammas bishaan waraabuudhaaf gara boolla bishaaniitti fiigde; gaalawwan isaa hundaafis bishaan waraabde.
21 Sotheli he bihelde hir priueli, and wolde wite whether the Lord hadde sped his wei, ethir nay.
Namichi sunis akka Waaqayyo karaa isaaf milkeesse yookaan akka isaaf hin milkeessin baruuf jedhee calʼisee xiyyeeffatee ishee ilaalaa ture.
22 Therfor after that the camels drunken, the man brouyte forth goldun eere ryngis, weiynge twei siclis, and as many bies of the arm, in the weiyte of ten siclis.
Erga gaalawwan bishaan dhuganii booddee namichi amartii funyaanii kan warqee kan walakkaa saqilii ulfaatuu fi bitawoo warqee kan saqilii kudhan ulfaatu lama gad baasee,
23 And he seide to hir, Whos douyter art thou? schewe thou to me, is ony place in the hows of thi fadir to dwelle?
“Ati intala eenyuu ti? Yoo mana abbaa keetii iddoon bulan jiraatte maaloo mee natti himi” jedhee gaafate.
24 Which answerde, Y am the douyter of Batuel, sone of Nachor, whom Melcha childide to him.
Isheenis, “Ani intala Betuuʼeel; Betuuʼeel immoo ilma Miilkaan Naahooriif deessee dha” isaan jette.
25 And sche addide, seiynge, Also ful myche of prouendre and of hey is at vs, and a large place to dwelle.
Itti dabaltees, “Cidii fi okaa baayʼee qabna; kutaan isin bultanis jira” jetteen.
26 The man bowide hym silf,
Namichis gad jedhee Waaqayyoof sagade;
27 and worschipide the Lord, and seide, Blessid be the Lord God of my lord Abraham, which God took not aweie his mersy and treuthe fro my lord, and ledde me bi riyt weie in to the hous of the brother of my lord.
akkanas jedhe; “Waaqayyo Waaqni gooftaa koo Abrahaam kan arjummaa isaatii fi amanamummaa isaa gooftaa koo hin dhowwatin sun haa eebbifamu. Waaqayyo anas gara mana obboloota gooftaa kootti karaa irra na qajeelcheera.”
28 And so the damesel ran, and telde in the hous of hir modir alle thingis whiche sche hadde herd.
Intalattiinis fiigdee dhaqxee warra mana haadha ishee jiranitti waaʼee waan kanaa himte.
29 Sotheli Rebecca hadde a brothir, Laban bi name, whiche yede out hastili to the man, where he was with out forth.
Ribqaan obboleessa Laabaa jedhamu tokko qabdi turte; Laabaanis fiigee namicha burqaa bishaanii bira jiru sana bira dhaqe.
30 And whanne he hadde seyn the eere ryngis and byes of the arm in the hondis of his sister, and hadde herd alle the wordis of hir tellynge, the man spak to me these thingis, he cam to the man that stood bisidis the camels, and nyy the welle of watir,
Innis yommuu obboleettii isaa irratti amartii funyaanii warqeetii fi bitawoo argetti, yommuu utuu Ribqaan waan namichi sun isheedhaan jedhe dubbattuu dhagaʼetti, gara namichaatti gad baʼe; namichis burqaa bishaanii cina gaalawwan bira dhaabatee ture.
31 and seide to him, Entre thou, the blessid of the Lord; whi stondist thou with outforth? I haue maad redi the hows, and a place to thi camels.
Namicha sanaanis, “Yaa namicha Waaqayyo eebbise, kottu; ati maaliif ala dhaabatta? Ani manicha qopheesseera; gaalawwaniifis iddoo qopheesseera” jedhe.
32 And he brouyte hym in to the ynne, and unsadlide the camels, and yaf prouendre, and hey, and watir to waische the feet of camels, and of men that camen with hym.
Kanaafuu namichi sun gara manaa dhaqe; Laabaanis gaalawwan irraa feʼiisa buusee cidii fi okaa kenneef; akka miilla isaanii dhiqataniif immoo namichaa fi warra isa wajjin turaniif bishaan kenne.
33 And breed was set forth in his siyt, which seide, Y schal not ete til Y speke my wordis. He answerde to the man, Speke thou.
Ergasiis nyaanni dhiʼaateef; namichi sun garuu, “Ani hamman dhimma koo himadhutti hin nyaadhu” jedhe. Laabaanis, “Himadhukaa” jedheen.
34 And the man seide, Y am the seruaunt of Abraham,
Innis akkana jedhe; “Ani tajaajilaa Abrahaamii ti.
35 and the Lord hath blessid my lord greetli, and he is maad greet; and God yaf to hym scheep, and oxun, siluer, and gold, seruauntis, and handmaides, camels, and assis.
Waaqayyo, gooftaa koo guddaa eebbiseera; innis sooromeera. Hoolotaa fi loowwan, meetii fi warqee, garboota dhiiraatii fi dubartii, gaalawwanii fi harroota isaaf kenneera.
36 And Sare, `the wijf of my lord, childide a sone to my lord in his eelde, and he yaf alle thingis that he hadde to that sone.
Niitiin gooftaa kootii Saaraan bara dulluma ishee keessa ilma isaaf deesse; innis waan qabu hunda ilma isaatiif kenneera.
37 And my lord chargide me greetli, and seide, Thou schalt not take to my sone a wijf of the douytris of Canaan, in whos lond Y dwelle,
Gooftaan koo akkana jedhee na kakachiise; ‘Ati intallan Kanaʼaan kanneen ani biyya isaanii keessa jiraadhu keessaa ilma koof niitii hin fidin;
38 but thou schalt go to the hous of my fadir, and of myn kynrede thou schalt take a wijf to my sone.
garuu gara mana abbaa kootii fi gara gosa koo dhaqiitii ilma kootiif niitii fidi.’
39 Forsothe Y answerde to my lord, What if the womman nyle come with me?
“Anis, ‘Yoo dubartiin sun na wajjin dhufuuf fedhii qabaachuu baattee hoo?’ jedhee gooftaa koo nan gaafadhe.
40 He seide, The Lord in whose siyt Y go, schal sende his aungel with thee, and he schal dresse thi weie; and thou schalt take a wijf to my sone of my kynrede, and of my fadris hows.
“Innis akkana naan jedhe; ‘Waaqayyo inni ani fuula isaa dura jiraadhu ergamaa isaa si wajjin ergee karaa kee siif milkeessa; atis gosa koo fi mana abbaa koo keessaa ilma kootiif niitii ni fidda.
41 Thou schalt be innocent fro my curs, whanne thou comest to my kynesmen, and thei yyuen not `the womman to thee.
Ati yommuu gara gosa koo dhaqxu kakuu koo irraa bilisa taata; yoo isaan intala sana sitti kennuu didani iyyuu ati kakuu koo irraa bilisa taata.’
42 Therfor Y cam to day to the welle of watir, and Y seide, Lord God of my lord Abraham, if thou hast dressid my weie in which Y go now, lo!
“Ani harʼa yommuun gara burqaa kanaa dhufetti akkanan jedhe; ‘Yaa Waaqayyo, Waaqa gooftaa koo Abrahaam yoo fedhii kee taʼe karaa ani deemu naa milkeessi.
43 Y stonde bisidis the welle of watir, and the maide that schal go out to drawe watir herith me, yyue thou to me a litil of water to drynke of thi pot,
Kunoo, ani burqaa kana bira dhaabadheera; yoo durbi tokko bishaan waraabbachuu dhuftee ani immoo, “Maaloo okkotee kee keessaa bishaan xinnoo ishee na obaasi” jedheenii,
44 and seith to me, And thou drynke, and Y schal drawe watir to thi camels, thilke is the womman which the Lord hath maad redi to the sone of my lord.
isheenis, “Dhugi; ani gaalawwan keetiifis nan waraaba” naan jette, isheen kan Waaqayyo ilma gooftaa kootiif file haa taatu.’
45 While Y turnede in thouyte these thingis with me, Rebecca apperide, comynge with a pot which sche bare in the schuldre; and sche yede doun to the welle, and drowe watir. And Y seide to hir, Yyue thou a litil to me to drynke; and sche hastide,
“Utuu ani garaa koo keessatti kadhadhee hin fixatin Ribqaan okkotee ishee gatiittiitti baadhattee gad dhufte. Isheenis gara burqaa sanaatti gad buutee bishaan waraabbatte; anis, ‘Maaloo bishaan na obaasi’ nan jedheen.
46 and dide doun the pot of the schuldre, and seide to me, And thou drynke, and Y schal yyue drynke to thi camels; Y drank, and watride the camels.
“Isheenis daftee okkotee ishee gatiittii irraa gad buufattee, ‘Dhugi; ani gaalawwan kees nan obaasaa’ jette. Anis nan dhuge; isheen immoo gaalawwan obaafte.
47 And Y axide hir, and seide, Whos douytir art thou? Which answerde, Y am the douytir of Batuel, sone of Nachor, whom Melcha childide to him. And so Y hangide eere ryngis to ourne hir face, and Y puttide bies of the arm in hir hondis,
“Anis, ‘Ati intala eenyuu ti?’ jedheen ishee gaafadhe. “Ishee immoo, ‘Ani intala Betuuʼeel; Betuuʼeel immoo ilma Miilkaan Naahooriif deessee dha’ jette. “Anis funyaan isheetti amartii, harka isheetti immoo bitawoo nan kaaʼe.
48 and lowliche Y worschipide the Lord, and Y blessid the Lord God of my lord Abraham, which God ledde me bi riyt weie, that Y schulde take the douytir of the brothir of my lord to his sone.
Anis gad jedhee Waaqayyoof nan sagade; Waaqayyo Waaqa gooftaa koo Abrahaam isa akka ani intala fira isaa ilma isaatiif geessu karaa qajeelaa irra na buuse sana nan eebbise.
49 Wherfor if ye don mercy and treuthe with `my lord, schewe ye to me; ellis if othir thing plesith, also seie ye this, that Y go to the riyt side ethir to the left side.
Egaa isin yoo gooftaa kootti garaa laafummaa fi amanamummaa argisiiftan natti himaa; yoo taʼuu baate immoo akka ani gara bitaatti yookaan gara mirgaatti goru natti himaa.”
50 Laban and Batuel answeriden, The word is gon out of the Lord; we moun not speke ony other thing with thee without his plesaunce.
Laabaa fi Betuuʼeelis akkana jedhanii deebisan; “Wanni kun Waaqayyo biraa dhufe; nu waan hamaa yookaan waan tolaa sitti dubbachuu hin dandeenyu.
51 Lo! Rebecca is bifore thee; take thou hir, and go forth, and be sche wijf of the sone of thi lord, as the Lord spak.
Kunoo, Ribqaan fuula kee dura jirti; ishee fudhadhuu deemi; isheenis akkuma Waaqayyo dubbatetti niitii ilma gooftaa keetii haa taatu.”
52 And whanne the child of Abraham hadde herd this, he felde doun, and worschipide the Lord in erthe.
Tajaajilaan Abrahaamis yommuu waan isaan jedhan dhagaʼetti lafatti gombifamee Waaqayyoof sagade.
53 And whanne vessels of siluer, and of gold, and clothis weren brouyt forth, he yaf tho to Rebecca for yifte, and he yaf yiftis to hir britheren, and modir.
Kana booddees tajaajilaan sun faaya meetii fi warqee, uffata adda addaas baasee Ribqaadhaaf kenne; obboleessa isheetii fi haadha isheetiifis kennaa gatii guddaa baasu kenne.
54 And whanne a feeste was maad, thei eeten and drunken to gider, and dwelliden there. Forsothe the child roos eerli, and spak, Delyuere ye me, that Y go to my lord.
Innii fi namoonni isa wajjin turanis nyaatanii dhuganii achuma bulan. Yommuu isaan guyyaa itti aanu ganamaan kaʼanitti tajaajilaan sun, “Akka ani gara gooftaa kootti deebiʼuuf na geggeessaa” jedhe.
55 Hir britheren and modir answerden, The damesele dwelle nameli ten daies at vs, and aftirward sche schal go forth.
Obboleessi isheetii fi haati ishee garuu, “Intalattiin guyyuma kudhan illee nu bira haa turtu; ergasiis isheen deemuu dandeessi” jedhan.
56 The child seide, Nyle ye holde me, for the Lord hath dressid my weie; delyuere ye me, that I go to my lord.
Inni garuu, “Erga Waaqayyo karaa koo naa milkeessee isin na hin tursinaa; akka ani gara gooftaa kootti deebiʼuuf na geggeessaa” isaaniin jedhe.
57 And thei seiden, Clepe we the damysele, and axe we hir wille.
Isaanis, “Mee intalattii waamnee waan isheen jettu gaafanna” jedhan.
58 And whanne sche was clepid, and cam, thei axiden, Wolt thou go with this man?
Kana irratti isaan Ribqaa waamanii, “Namicha kana wajjin deemuu feetaa?” jedhanii ishee gaafatan. Isheenis, “Ani nan deema” jette.
59 And sche seide, Y schal go. Therfor they delyueriden hir, and hir nurse, and the seruaunt of Abraham, and hise felowis, and wischiden prosperitees to her sister,
Kanaafuu isaan obboleettii isaanii Ribqaa fi guddiftuu ishee, tajaajilaa Abrahaamii fi namoota isaa wajjin geggeessan.
60 and seiden, Thou art oure sister, encreesse thou in to a thousand thousandis, and thi seed gete the yatis of hise enemyes.
Isaanis akkana jedhanii Ribqaa eebbisan; “Yaa obboleettii keenya, kumaa kumaatama taʼi; sanyiin kee karra diinota isaa haa dhaalu.”
61 Therfor Rebecca and hir damesels stieden on the camels, and sueden the man, which turnede ayen hasteli to his lord.
Ribqaa fi tajaajiltuuwwan ishee qophaaʼanii gaalawwan isaanii yaabbatanii namicha faana buʼan; namichis Ribqaa fudhatee deeme.
62 In that tyme Ysaac walkide bi the weie that ledith to the pit, whos name is of hym that lyueth and seeth; for he dwellide in the south lond.
Yeroo sana Yisihaaq boolla bishaanii Beʼeer Lahaayirooʼiitii dhufee Negeeb keessa jiraachaa ture.
63 And he yede out to thenke in the feeld, for the dai was `bowid thanne; and whanne he hadde reisid the iyen, he seiy camels comynge afer.
Innis gaaf tokko gara galgalaa utuu bakkeetti baʼee waa yaadaa jiruu oli ilaalee kunoo gaalawwan dhufaa jiran arge.
64 And whanne Ysaac was seyn, Rebecca liyte doun of the camel,
Ribqaanis ol ilaaltee Yisihaaqin argite; gaala irraas buutee
65 and seide to the child, Who is that man that cometh bi the feeld in to the metyng of vs? And the child seide to hir, He is my lord. And sche took soone a mentil, and hilide hir.
tajaajilaa sanaan, “Namichi nu simachuuf bakkee keessa as deemaa jiru sun eenyu?” jettee gaafatte. Tajaajilaan sunis, “Inni gooftaa koo ti” jedhee deebiseef. Kanaafuu haguuggii ishee fudhattee ofitti haguugde.
66 Forsothe the seruaunt tolde to his lord Ysaac alle thingis whiche he hadde do;
Tajaajilaan sunis waan hojjete hunda Yisihaaqitti hime.
67 which Ysaac ledde hir in to the tabernacle of Sare, his modir, and took hir to wijf; and so myche he louede hir, that he temperide the sorewe which bifelde of the deeth of the modir.
Yisihaaqis dunkaana haadha isaa Saaraatti ol ishee galfate; Ribqaa fuudhes. Akkasiin isheen niitii isaa taate; innis ishee jaallate; Yisihaaqis duʼa haadha isaa irraa ni jajjabaate.
