< Genesis 26 >
1 And there is a famine in the land, besides the first famine which was in the days of Abraham, and Isaac goeth unto Abimelech king of the Philistines, to Gerar.
Abraham a hring nathung vah ahmaloe e takangnae hloilah, Isak tueng nahai hote ram dawk takangnae a tho. Hatdawkvah, Isak teh Gerar kho Filistin siangpahrang Abimelek koevah a cei.
2 And Jehovah appeareth unto him, and saith, 'Go not down towards Egypt, tabernacle in the land concerning which I speak unto thee,
Ahni koevah, BAWIPA a kamnue teh Izip ram vah cet hanh. Kai ni na dei pouh hane ram dawk awmh.
3 sojourn in this land, and I am with thee, and bless thee, for to thee and to thy seed I give all these lands, and I have established the oath which I have sworn to Abraham thy father;
Hete ram dawk awmh. Nang koe ka o vaiteh yawhawinae na poe han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Hete ram pueng heh nang hoi na catounnaw koe poe hoi na pa Abraham koevah lawk ka kam e patetlah ka sak han.
4 and I have multiplied thy seed as stars of the heavens, and I have given to thy seed all these lands; and blessed themselves in thy seed have all nations of the earth;
Kalvan e âsi yit touh na ca catounnaw ka pung sak vaiteh hete ram pueng heh na ca catounnaw koevah ka poe han. Hahoi, na ca catounnaw lahoi talai miphunnaw pueng yawhawinae lah ao awh han.
5 because that Abraham hath hearkened to My voice, and keepeth My charge, My commands, My statutes, and My laws.'
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Abraham ni kaie lawk, kai ni dei e, kaie kâpoelawknaw, kaie phunglawknaw hoi kaie kâlawknaw hah a tarawi telah ati.
6 And Isaac dwelleth in Gerar;
Hot patetlah Isak teh Gerar vah kho a sak.
7 and men of the place ask him of his wife, and he saith, 'She [is] my sister:' for he hath been afraid to say, 'My wife — lest the men of the place kill me for Rebekah, for she [is] of good appearance.'
Khocanaw ni a yu e kong a pacei teh ahni ni, ka tawncanu doeh telah atipouh. A meihawipoung dawkvah, ka yu doeh telah ka tetpawiteh hete khocanaw ni na thei han doeh telah ati dawk doeh.
8 And it cometh to pass, when the days have been prolonged to him there, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looketh through the window, and seeth, and lo, Isaac is playing with Rebekah his wife.
Hahoi, hote kho dawk moikasaw ao hnukkhu, Filistin siangpahrang Abimelek ni hlalangaw koehoi kho hah a radoung nah Isak ni a yu Rebekah hoi a pai roi e hah a hmu.
9 And Abimelech calleth for Isaac, and saith, 'Lo, she [is] surely thy wife; and how hast thou said, She [is] my sister?' and Isaac saith unto him, 'Because I said, Lest I die for her.'
Abimelek ni Isak hah a kaw teh na yu roeroe doeh. Bangkongmaw ka tawncanu telah na ti thai, telah atipouh. Isak ni ahni kecu dawk due hane ka taki dawk doeh telah atipouh.
10 And Abimelech saith, 'What [is] this thou hast done to us? as a little thing one of the people had lain with thy wife, and thou hadst brought upon us guilt;'
Abimelek ni kaimae lathueng vah bang hno maw na sak. Taminaw ni na yu heh a ikhai thai nahoehmaw. Hottelah kaimouh lathueng vah hnokahawi hoeh na pha sak thai nahoehmaw telah atipouh.
11 and Abimelech commandeth all the people, saying, 'He who cometh against this man or against his wife, dying doth die.'
Abimelek ni apihai ama thoseh, a yu thoseh, ka tek e tami teh thei roeroe lah ao han telah a taminaw pueng koe kâ a poe.
12 And Isaac soweth in that land, and findeth in that year a hundredfold, and Jehovah blesseth him;
Isak ni hote ram dawk cang a patue teh BAWIPA ni hote kum dawk roeroe alet 100 touh yawhawinae a poe.
13 and the man is great, and goeth on, going on and becoming great, till that he hath been very great,
Ahni teh hoehoe a bawi teh, lutlut bawi totouh a tawn, hnopai hoehoe a pungdaw pouh.
14 and he hath possession of a flock, and possession of a herd, and an abundant service; and the Philistines envy him,
Bangkongtetpawiteh, tuhunaw hoi maitonaw hoi a sannaw moi a tawn. Hatdawkvah, Filistinnaw ni a ut awh.
15 and all the wells which his father's servants digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines have stopped them, and fill them with dust.
A na pa Abraham a hring nah a sannaw ni a tai e tuikhunaw pueng hah Filistinnaw ni hno han pasoung hoeh dawkvah, talai koung a paten sin awh.
16 And Abimelech saith unto Isaac, 'Go from us; for thou hast become much mightier than we;'
Abimelek ni Isak koevah, kaimouh koehoi tâcawt leih. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang teh kaimouh hlak vah hno na sak thai telah atipouh.
17 and Isaac goeth from thence, and encampeth in the valley of Gerar, and dwelleth there;
Isak ni hote hmuen koehoi a tâco teh Gerar yawn dawk rim a sak teh haw vah kho a sak.
18 and Isaac turneth back, and diggeth the wells of water which they digged in the days of Abraham his father, which the Philistines do stop after the death of Abraham, and he calleth to them names according to the names which his father called them.
A na pa Abraham ni a hring nah a tai e tuikhunaw hah Isak ni bout a tai. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Abraham a due hnukkhu vah Filistinnaw ni talai muen a paten awh. Hahoi, a na pa ni min a phung e patetlah min bout a phung.
19 And Isaac's servants dig in the valley, and find there a well of living water,
Isak e sannaw ni hai hote yawn dawk tuikhu a tai awh teh hote hmuen koe tui a tâco e hah a hmu awh.
20 and shepherds of Gerar strive with shepherds of Isaac, saying, 'The water [is] ours;' and he calleth the name of the well 'Strife,' because they have striven habitually with him;
Hateiteh, Gerar e saring kakhoumnaw ni tui heh kaimae doeh telah Isak e saring kakhoumnaw hoi a kâounkhai awh. Ahnimouh hoi a kâoun awh dawkvah, tuikhu e min teh Esek telah ati awh.
21 and they dig another well, and they strive also for it, and he calleth its name 'Hatred.'
Tuikhu alouke bout a tai teh hote haiyah lawp hanlah a kâounkhai awh dawkvah a min Sitnah telah ati awh.
22 And he removeth from thence, and diggeth another well, and they have not striven for it, and he calleth its name Enlargements, and saith, 'For — now hath Jehovah given enlargement to us, and we have been fruitful in the land.'
Hote hmuen koehoi a kampuen awh teh alouke tuikhu hah bout a tai awh. Hote teh lawp hanlah kâcai awh hoeh toe. Atu teh BAWIPA ni hmuen kakawpoung na sak pouh dawkvah hete ram dawk canaw moikapap ka khe awh han toe telah ati awh teh a min lah Rehoboth telah ati awh.
23 And he goeth up from thence [to] Beer-Sheba,
Hote hmuen koehoi Beersheba lah a takhang awh.
24 and Jehovah appeareth unto him during that night, and saith, 'I [am] the God of Abraham thy father, fear not, for I [am] with thee, and have blessed thee, and have multiplied thy seed, because of Abraham My servant;'
Hote tangmin dawkvah BAWIPA teh ahni koevah a kamnue teh kai teh na pa Abraham e Cathut doeh, taket hanh, bangkongtetpawiteh, nang koe ka o. Yawhawinae na poe vaiteh, ka san Abraham pawlawk hoi na ca catounnaw ka pungdaw sak han telah ati.
25 and he buildeth there an altar, and preacheth in the name of Jehovah, and stretcheth out there his tent, and there Isaac's servants dig a well.
Hote hmuen koe khoungroe hah a sak. BAWIPA min a kaw teh rim a sak. Hahoi, Isak e sannaw ni hote hmuen koe tuikhu hah a tai awh.
26 And Abimelech hath gone unto him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath his friend, and Phichol head of his host;
Hatdawkvah, Gerar hoi Abimelek teh a hui Ahuzzath hoi a ransabawi Fikol hoi ahni koevah a tho awh.
27 and Isaac saith unto them, 'Wherefore have ye come unto me, and ye have hated me, and ye send me away from you?'
Isak ni na hmuhma awh teh namamouh koehoi na pâlei hnukkhu, bangkongmaw kai koevah bout na tho awh telah atipouh.
28 And they say, 'We have certainly seen that Jehovah hath been with thee, and we say, 'Let there be, we pray thee, an oath between us, between us and thee, and let us make a covenant with thee;
Ahnimouh ni nang koevah BAWIPA ao tie kamcengcalah ka panue awh. Patawnae poe hanlah ka tho awh hoeh. Hawinae hoi roumnae lahoi na ceisak e patetlah kaimouh pataw nahanlah banghai na sak hoeh nahanlah,
29 do not evil with us, as we have not touched thee, and as we have only done good with thee, and send thee away in peace; thou [art] now blessed of Jehovah.'
kaimouh rahak vah, nangmouh hoi kaimouh rahak roeroe dawkvah lawkkamnae awm naseh. Nang teh BAWIPA ni yawhawi a poe e tami doeh telah atipouh awh.
30 And he maketh for them a banquet, and they eat and drink,
Isak ni ahnimouh hanlah buvennae a sak pouh teh a canei awh.
31 and rise early in the morning, and swear one to another, and Isaac sendeth them away, and they go from him in peace.
Amom lah palang a tho awh teh buet touh hoi buet touh thoebo lawkkamnae a sak awh. Isak ni a ceisak teh ahni koehoi karoumcalah hoi a tâco awh.
32 And it cometh to pass during that day that Isaac's servants come and declare to him concerning the circumstances of the well which they have digged, and say to him, 'We have found water;'
Hote hnin dawkvah, Isak e sannaw hah a tho awh teh tuikhu a tai awh e kongnaw a dei pouh teh, tui ka hmu awh toe telah atipouh awh.
33 and he calleth it Shebah, [oath, ] therefore the name of the city [is] Beer-Sheba, [well of the oath, ] unto this day.
Hote tuikhu teh Sheba telah ati awh. Hatdawkvah, hote kho teh sahnin totouh Beersheba telah ati awh.
34 And Esau is a son of forty years, and he taketh a wife, Judith, daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath, daughter of Elon the Hittite,
Esaw teh a kum 40 touh a pha nah Hit tami Beeri canu Judith hoi Hit tami Elon e canu Basemath hah a yu lah a paluen.
35 and they are a bitterness of spirit to Isaac and to Rebekah.
Hotnaw teh Isak hoi Rebekah a lung ka pataw sakkungnaw doeh.
