Farawa 26
1 Aka yi yunwa a ƙasar; ban da yunwar da aka yi da fari a zamanin Ibrahim, sai Ishaku ya tafi wurin Abimelek sarkin Filistiyawa a Gerar.
Then came a time of great need in the land, like that which had been before in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to Abimelech, king of the Philistines, at Gerar.
2 Ubangiji kuwa ya bayyana ga Ishaku ya ce, “Kada ka gangara zuwa Masar; ka yi zauna a ƙasar da zan faɗa maka.
And the Lord came to him in a vision and said, Do not go down to Egypt; keep in the land of which I will give you knowledge:
3 Ka zauna a wannan ƙasa na ɗan lokaci, zan kuwa kasance tare da kai, zan kuma albarkace ka. Gama zan ba da waɗannan ƙasashe gare ka da kuma zuriyarka. Zan kuma cika rantsuwar da na yi wa mahaifinka Ibrahim.
Keep in this land, and I will be with you and give you my blessing; for to you and to your seed will I give all these lands, giving effect to the oath which I made to your father Abraham;
4 Zan sa zuriyarka ta yi yawa kamar taurari a sararin sama zan kuwa ba su dukan waɗannan ƙasashe, ta wurin’ya’yanka kuma za a albarkaci dukan al’umman duniya,
I will make your seed like the stars of heaven in number, and will give them all these lands, and your seed will be a blessing to all the nations of the earth;
5 domin Ibrahim ya yi mini biyayya ya kuma kiyaye umarnaina, ƙa’idodina da kuma dokokina.”
Because Abraham gave ear to my voice and kept my words, my rules, my orders, and my laws.
6 Sai Ishaku ya zauna a Gerar.
So Isaac went on living in Gerar;
7 Sa’ad da mutanen wurin suka tambaye shi game da matarsa, sai ya ce, “’Yar’uwata ce,” gama yana tsoro yă ce, “Ita matata ce.” Ya yi tunani, “Mutane wannan wuri za su kashe ni ta dalili Rebeka, domin kyakkyawa ce.”
And when he was questioned by the men of the place about his wife, he said, She is my sister; fearing to say, She is my wife; for, he said, the men of the place may put me to death on account of Rebekah; because she is very beautiful.
8 Sa’ad da Ishaku ya daɗe a can, sai Abimelek sarkin Filistiyawa ya duba daga taga ya ga Ishaku yana rungumar matarsa Rebeka.
And when he had been there for some time, Abimelech, king of the Philistines, looking through a window, saw Isaac playing with Rebekah his wife.
9 Saboda haka Abimelek ya aika Ishaku yă je, sa’an nan ya ce, “Tabbatacce ita matarka ce! Me ya sa ka ce, ‘Ita’yar’uwata ce?’” Ishaku ya amsa masa ya ce, “Don na yi tsammani zan rasa raina saboda ita.”
And he said to Isaac, It is clear that she is your wife: why then did you say, She is my sister? And Isaac said, For fear that I might be put to death because of her.
10 Sa’an nan Abimelek ya ce, “Me ke nan ka yi mana? Da a ce wani daga mazanmu ya kwana da matarka, ai, da ka jawo laifi a kanmu.”
Then Abimelech said, What have you done to us? one of the people might well have had connection with your wife, and the sin would have been ours.
11 Saboda haka Abimelek ya yi umarni ga dukan mutane. “Duk wanda ya fitine wannan mutum ko matarsa, tabbatacce za a kashe shi.”
And Abimelech gave orders to his people that anyone touching Isaac or his wife was to be put to death.
12 Ishaku ya shuka hatsi a wannan ƙasa, a shekaran nan ya yi girbi ninki ɗari, domin Ubangiji ya albarkace shi.
Now Isaac, planting seed in that land, got in the same year fruit a hundred times as much, for the blessing of the Lord was on him.
13 Mutumin ya arzuta, arzikinsa ya yi ta haɓaka har ya zama attajiri.
And his wealth became very great, increasing more and more;
14 Ya kasance da garkunan tumaki da na shanu da bayi masu yawa, har Filistiyawa suka yi ƙyashinsa.
For he had great wealth of flocks and herds and great numbers of servants; so that the Philistines were full of envy.
15 Saboda haka dukan rijiyoyin da bayin mahaifinsa suka haƙa a kwanakin da mahaifinsa Ibrahim yake da rai, Filistiyawa sun toshe su, suka kuma ciccike su da ƙasa.
Now all the water-holes, which his father's servants had made in the days of Abraham, had been stopped up with earth by the Philistines.
16 Sai Abimelek ya ce wa Ishaku, “Fita daga cikinmu; ka fi ƙarfinmu.”
And Abimelech said to Isaac, Go away from us, for you are stronger than we are.
17 Saboda haka Ishaku ya fita daga can, ya yi sansani a Kwarin Gerar, ya kuma zauna a can.
So Isaac went away from there, and put up his tents in the valley of Gerar, making his living-place there.
18 Ishaku ya sāke tona rijiyoyi waɗanda dā aka haƙa a zamanin Ibrahim mahaifinsa, gama Filistiyawa suka tattoshe bayan mutuwar Ibrahim, ya kuma sa musu sunayen da mahaifinsa ya ba su.
And he made again the water-holes which had been made in the days of Abraham his father, and which had been stopped up by the Philistines; and he gave them the names which his father had given them.
19 Barorin Ishaku suka haƙa cikin kwarin suka kuwa sami rijiya mai ruwa mai kyau a can.
Now Isaac's servants made holes in the valley, and came to a spring of flowing water.
20 Amma makiyayan Gerar suka yi faɗa da na Ishaku suka ce, “Ruwan namu ne!” Saboda haka Ishaku ya ba wa rijiyar suna Esek, domin sun yi faɗa da shi.
But the herdmen of Gerar had a fight with Isaac's herdmen, for they said, The spring is ours: so he gave the spring the name of Esek, because there was a fight about it.
21 Sai suka haƙa wata rijiya, amma suka yi faɗa a kanta ita ma, saboda haka ya ce da ita Sitna.
Then they made another water-hole, and there was a fight about that, so he gave it the name of Sitnah.
22 Sai Ishaku ya matsa daga can ya sāke haƙa wata rijiyar, babu wani kuma da yi faɗa a kanta. Sai ya ba ta suna Rehobot, yana cewa, “Yanzu Ubangiji ya ba mu wuri, za mu kuwa yi ta haihuwa a ƙasar.”
Then he went away from there, and made another water-hole, about which there was no fighting: so he gave it the name of Rehoboth, for he said, Now the Lord has made room for us, and we will have fruit in this land.
23 Daga can ya haura zuwa Beyersheba.
And from there he went on to Beer-sheba.
24 A wannan dare Ubangiji ya bayyana gare shi ya ce, “Ni ne Allah na mahaifinka Ibrahim. Kada ka ji tsoro, gama ina tare da kai, zan albarkace ka, zan kuma ƙara yawan zuriyarka saboda bawana Ibrahim.”
That night the Lord came to him in a vision, and said, I am the God of your father Abraham: have no fear for I am with you, blessing you, and your seed will be increased because of my servant Abraham.
25 Sai Ishaku ya gina bagade a can, ya kuma kira bisa sunan Ubangiji. A can ya kafa tentinsa, a can kuma bayinsa suka haƙa wata rijiya.
Then he made an altar there, and gave worship to the name of the Lord, and he put up his tents there, and there his servants made a water-hole.
26 Ana cikin haka, sai Abimelek ya zo wurinsa daga Gerar, tare da Ahuzzat mai ba shi shawara da Fikol shugaban mayaƙansa.
And Abimelech had come to him from Gerar, with Ahuzzath his friend and Phicol, the captain of his army.
27 Ishaku ya tambaye su, “Me ya kawo ku gare ni, da yake kun yi gāba da ni, kuka kuma kore ni?”
And Isaac said to them, Why have you come to me, seeing that in your hate for me you sent me away from you?
28 Suka amsa, “Mun ga a zahiri cewa Ubangiji yana tare da kai; saboda haka muka ce, ‘Dole rantsuwa ta kasance tsakaninmu da kai.’ Bari mu yi yarjejjeniya da kai
And they said, We saw clearly that the Lord was with you: so we said, Let there be an oath between us and you, and let us make an agreement with you;
29 cewa ba za ka cuce mu ba, kamar yadda ba mu fitine ka ba, amma muka yi maka kirki, muka kuma sallame ka cikin salama. Yanzu kuwa kai albarkatacce ne na Ubangiji.”
That you will do us no damage, even as we put no hand on you, and did you nothing but good, and sent you away in peace: and now the blessing of the Lord is on you.
30 Sai Ishaku ya shirya musu liyafa, suka ci suka kuma sha.
Then he made a feast for them, and they all had food and drink.
31 Kashegari da sassafe sai mutanen suka yi wa juna rantsuwa. Sa’an nan Ishaku ya sallame su, suka kuwa tafi cikin salama.
And early in the morning they took an oath one to the other: then Isaac sent them away and they went on their way in peace.
32 A wannan rana bayin Ishaku suka zo suka faɗa masa game da rijiyar da suka haƙa. Suka ce, “Mun sami ruwa!”
And that day Isaac's servants came to him and gave him word of the water-hole which they had made, and said to him, We have come to water.
33 Sai ya kira ta Shiba, don haka har wa yau ana kira garin Beyersheba.
And he gave it the name of Shibah: so the name of that town is Beer-sheba to this day.
34 Sa’ad da Yaƙub ya kai shekaru arba’in da haihuwa, sai ya auri Yudit’yar Beyeri mutumin Hitti, da kuma Basemat’yar Elon mutumin Hitti.
And when Esau was forty years old, he took as his wives Judith, the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Basemath, the daughter of Elon the Hittite:
35 Su ne suka zama sanadin baƙin ciki ga Ishaku da Rebeka.
And Isaac and Rebekah had grief of mind because of them.
