Genesis 21
1 And Jehovah hath looked after Sarah as He hath said, and Jehovah doth to Sarah as He hath spoken;
Visitavit autem Dominus Saram, sicut promiserat: et implevit quæ locutus est.
2 and Sarah conceiveth, and beareth a son to Abraham, to his old age, at the appointed time that God hath spoken of with him;
Concepitque et peperit filium in senectute sua, tempore quo prædixerat ei Deus.
3 and Abraham calleth the name of his son who is born to him, whom Sarah hath born to him — Isaac;
Vocavitque Abraham nomen filii sui, quem genuit ei Sara, Isaac:
4 and Abraham circumciseth Isaac his son, [being] a son of eight days, as God hath commanded him.
et circumcidit eum octavo die, sicut præceperat ei Deus,
5 And Abraham [is] a son of a hundred years in Isaac his son being born to him,
cum centum esset annorum: hac quippe ætate patris, natus est Isaac.
6 and Sarah saith, 'God hath made laughter for me; every one who is hearing laugheth for me.'
Dixitque Sara: Risum fecit mihi Deus: quicumque audierit, corridebit mihi.
7 She saith also, 'Who hath said to Abraham, Sarah hath suckled sons, that I have born a son for his old age?'
Rursumque ait: Quis auditurus crederet Abraham quod Sara lactaret filium, quem peperit et iam seni?
8 And the lad groweth, and is weaned, and Abraham maketh a great banquet in the day of Isaac's being weaned;
Crevit igitur puer, et ablactatus est: fecitque Abraham grande convivium in die ablactationis eius.
9 and Sarah seeth the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she hath borne to Abraham, mocking,
Cumque vidisset Sara filium Agar Ægyptiæ ludentem cum Isaac filio suo, dixit ad Abraham:
10 and she saith to Abraham, 'Cast out this handmaid and her son; for the son of this handmaid hath no possession with my son — with Isaac.'
Eiice ancillam hanc, et filium eius: non enim erit heres filius ancillæ cum filio meo Isaac.
11 And the thing is very wrong in the eyes of Abraham, for his son's sake;
Dure accepit hoc Abraham pro filio suo.
12 and God saith unto Abraham, 'Let it not be wrong in thine eyes because of the youth, and because of thy handmaid: all that Sarah saith unto thee — hearken to her voice, for in Isaac is a seed called to thee.
Cui dixit Deus: Non tibi videatur asperum super puero, et super ancilla tua: omnia quæ dixerit tibi Sara, audi vocem eius: quia in Isaac vocabitur tibi semen.
13 As to the son of the handmaid also, for a nation I set him, because he [is] thy seed.'
Sed et filium ancillæ faciam in gentem magnam, quia semen tuum est.
14 And Abraham riseth early in the morning, and taketh bread, and a bottle of water, and giveth unto Hagar (placing [it] on her shoulder), also the lad, and sendeth her out; and she goeth on, and goeth astray in the wilderness of Beer-Sheba;
Surrexit itaque Abraham mane, et tollens panem et utrem aquæ, imposuit scapulæ eius, tradiditque puerum, et dimisit eam. Quæ cum abiisset, errabat in solitudine Bersabee.
15 and the water is consumed from the bottle, and she placeth the lad under one of the shrubs.
Cumque consumpta esset aqua in utre, abiecit puerum subter unam arborum, quæ ibi erant.
16 And she goeth and sitteth by herself over-against, afar off, about a bow-shot, for she said, 'Let me not look on the death of the lad;' and she sitteth over-against, and lifteth up her voice, and weepeth.
Et abiit, seditque e regione procul quantum potest arcus iacere. Dixit enim: Non videbo morientem puerum: et sedens contra, levavit vocem suam et flevit.
17 And God heareth the voice of the youth; and the messenger of God calleth unto Hagar from the heavens, and saith to her, 'What to thee, Hagar? fear not; for God hath hearkened unto the voice of the youth where he [is];
Exaudivit autem Deus vocem pueri: vocavitque Angelus Dei Agar de cælo, dicens: Quid agis Agar? noli timere: exaudivit enim Deus vocem pueri de loco in quo est.
18 rise, lift up the youth, and lay hold on him with thy hand, for for a great nation I set him.'
Surge, tolle puerum, et tene manum illius: quia in gentem magnam faciam eum.
19 And God openeth her eyes, and she seeth a well of water, and she goeth and filleth the bottle [with] water, and causeth the youth to drink;
Aperuitque oculos eius Deus: quæ videns puteum aquæ, abiit, et implevit utrem, deditque puero bibere.
20 and God is with the youth, and he groweth, and dwelleth in the wilderness, and is an archer;
Et fuit cum eo: qui crevit, et moratus est in solitudine, factusque est iuvenis sagittarius.
21 and he dwelleth in the wilderness of Paran, and his mother taketh for him a wife from the land of Egypt.
Habitavitque in deserto Pharan, et accepit illi mater sua uxorem de terra Ægypti.
22 And it cometh to pass at that time that Abimelech speaketh — Phichol also, head of his host — unto Abraham, saying, 'God [is] with thee in all that thou art doing;
Eodem tempore dixit Abimelech, et Phicol princeps exercitus eius ad Abraham: Deus tecum est in universis quæ agis.
23 and now, swear to me by God here: thou dost not lie to me, or to my continuator, or to my successor; according to the kindness which I have done with thee thou dost with me, and with the land in which thou hast sojourned.'
Iura ergo per Deum, ne noceas mihi, et posteris meis, stirpique meæ: sed iuxta misericordiam, quam feci tibi, facies mihi, et terræ in qua versatus es advena.
24 And Abraham saith, 'I — I do swear.'
Dixitque Abraham: Ego iurabo.
25 And Abraham reasoned with Abimelech concerning the matter of a well of water which Abimelech's servants have taken violently away,
Et increpavit Abimelech propter puteum aquæ quem vi abstulerunt servi eius.
26 and Abimelech saith, 'I have not known who hath done this thing, and even thou didst not declare to me, and I also, I have not heard save to-day.'
Responditque Abimelech: Nescivi quis fecerit hanc rem: sed et tu non indicasti mihi, et ego non audivi præter hodie.
27 And Abraham taketh sheep and oxen, and giveth to Abimelech, and they make, both of them, a covenant;
Tulit itaque Abraham oves et boves, et dedit Abimelech: percusseruntque ambo fœdus.
28 and Abraham setteth seven Lambs of the flock by themselves.
Et statuit Abraham septem agnas gregis seorsum.
29 And Abimelech saith unto Abraham, 'What [are] they — these seven lambs which thou hast set by themselves?'
Cui dixit Abimelech: Quid sibi volunt septem agnæ istæ, quas stare fecisti seorsum?
30 And he saith, 'For — the seven lambs thou dost accept from my hand, so that it becometh a witness for me that I have digged this well;'
At ille: Septem, inquit, agnas accipies de manu mea: ut sint mihi in testimonium, quoniam ego fodi puteum istum.
31 therefore hath he called that place 'Beer-Sheba,' for there have both of them sworn.
Idcirco vocatus est locus ille Bersabee: quia ibi uterque iuravit.
32 And they make a covenant in Beer-Sheba, and Abimelech riseth — Phichol also, head of his host — and they turn back unto the land of the Philistines;
Et inierunt fœdus pro puteo iuramenti.
33 and [Abraham] planteth a tamarisk in Beer-Sheba, and preacheth there in the name of Jehovah, God age-during;
Surrexit autem Abimelech, et Phicol princeps exercitus eius, reversique sunt in terram Palæstinorum. Abraham vero plantavit nemus in Bersabee, et invocavit ibi nomen Domini Dei æterni.
34 and Abraham sojourneth in the land of the Philistines many days.
Et fuit colonus terræ Palæstinorum diebus multis.
