Kinohi 26
1 HE wi no ma ia aina, he okoa ka wi mua i hiki mai ai i ka wa ia Aberahama. A hele aku la o Isaaka io Abimeleka la, i ke alii o ko Pilisetia ma Gerara.
Now a famine happened in the land, besides the first famine that had been in the days of Abraham. Isaac went to Abimelech, king of the Philistines at Gerar.
2 Ikea aku la o Iehova e ia, i mai La, Mai hele oe ilalo i Aigupita, E noho iho ma ka aina a'u e hai aku ai ia oe:
Now Yahweh appeared to him and said, “Do not go down to Egypt; live in the land that I tell you to live in.
3 E noho oe ma keia aina, a me oe pu no wau, a e hoopomaikai aku no wau ia oe: no ka mea, e haawi aku auanei au nou, a no kau poe mamo i keia mau aina a pau; a e hooko auanei au i ka hoohiki ana a'u i hoohiki ai i kou makuakane ia Aberahama.
Stay in this very land, and I will be with you and will bless you; for to you and to your descendants, I will give all these lands, and I will fulfill the oath that I swore to Abraham your father.
4 A e hoonui aku au i kau poe mamo e like me na hoku o ka lani, a e haawi aku. no wau i keia mau aina a pau no kau poe mamo; a i kau mamo e hoopomaikaiia'i na lahuikanaka a pau o ka honua:
I will multiply your descendants like the stars of heaven, and will give to your descendants all these lands. Through your descendants all the nations of the earth will be blessed.
5 No ka mea, i hoolohe mai no o Aberahama i ko'u leo, a i malama hoi i ka'u mau kauoha, i ka'u mau olelo, a me ko'u mau kanawai.
I will do this because Abraham obeyed my voice and kept my instructions, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.”
6 A noho iho la o Isaaka ma Gerara.
So Isaac settled in Gerar.
7 Ninau mai la na kanaka o ia wahi ia ia no kana wahine; i aku la ia, O ko'u kaikuwahine no ia: no ka mea, makau iho la ia i ka i aku, Oia ka'u wahine; o pepehi mai na kanaka o ia wahi ia'u no Rebeka; no ka mea, he maikai ia ke nanaia'ku.
When the men of the place asked him about his wife, he said, “She is my sister.” He feared to say, “She is my wife,” because he thought, “The men of this place will kill me to get Rebekah, because she is so beautiful.”
8 Ia ia i noho ai ma ia wahi a liuliu, nana mai la o Abimeleka o ke alii o ko Pilisetia, ma ka puka makani, ike mai la ia, aia hoi, o Isaaka e lealea ana me kana wahine, me Rebeka.
After Isaac had been there a long time, Abimelech king of the Philistines happened to look out of a window. He saw, behold, Isaac was caressing Rebekah, his wife.
9 Hea mai la o Abimeleka ia Isaaka, i mai la, Aia hoi, he oiaio no, o kau wahine no ia; a pehea hoi oe i olelo mai ai, O ko'u kaikuwahine ia? I aku la o Isaaka ia ia, No ka mea, i iho la au, E make paha uanei au nona.
Abimelech called Isaac to him and said, “Look, certainly she is your wife. Why did you say, 'She is my sister'?” Isaac said to him, “Because I thought someone might kill me to get her.”
10 I mai la o Abimeleka, Heaha keia au i hana mai ai ia makou? Ina i moe wale paha kekahi o na kanaka me kau wahine, ina ua hooili mai oe i ka hala maluna o makou.
Abimelech said, “What is this you have done to us? One of the people might easily have slept with your wife, and you would have brought guilt upon us.”
11 Kauoha aku o Abimeleka i na kanaka a pau, i ka i ana, O ka mea hoopa aku i keia kanaka, a i kana wahine paha, he oiaio e make ia.
So Abimelech warned all the people and said, “Whoever touches this man or his wife will surely be put to death.”
12 Lulu hua iho la o Isaaka ma ia aina, a loaa pahaneri mai la ia ia ia makahiki: a hoopomaikai mai la o Iehova ia ia.
Isaac planted crops in that land and reaped in the same year a hundredfold, because Yahweh blessed him.
13 Lilo ae la ua kanaka la i mea nui, mahuahua ae la ia, ulu ae la, a lilo i kanaka nui loa:
The man became rich, and grew more and more until he became very great.
14 No ka mea, nana na hipa, a me na bipi, a me na kanaka he nui loa: a huahuwa mai la ko Pilisetia ia ia.
He had many sheep and cattle, and a large household. The Philistines envied him.
15 A o na punawai a pau i eliia e na kauwa a kona makuakane, i ka wa ia Aberahama, huna ae la ko Pilisetia ia mau mea i ka hoopiha i ka lepo.
Now all the wells that his father's servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines stopped them up by filling them with earth.
16 Olelo mai la o Abimeleka ia Isaaka, E hele aku oe mai o makou aku, no ka mea, ua nui loa aku kau, i ka makou.
Abimelech said to Isaac, “Go away from us, for you are much mightier than we.”
17 Hele aku la o Isaaka, a kukulu iho la i kona halelewa ma ke awawa o Gerara, a noho iho la ilaila.
So Isaac departed from there and settled in the Valley of Gerar, and lived there.
18 Eli hou iho la o Isaaka i na luawai a lakou i eli iho ai i ka wa ia Aberahama o kona makuakane; no ka mea, ua huna iho ko Pilisetia ia mau mea mahope o ka make ana o Aberahama: a kapa iho la ia i ko lakou mau inoa, ma na inoa a kona makuakane i kapa iho ai.
Once again Isaac dug out the wells of water, which they had dug in the days of Abraham his father. The Philistines had stopped them up after Abraham's death. Isaac called the wells by the same names that his father had called them.
19 Eli iho la na kanwa a Isaaka ma ke awawa, a loaa iho la ka punawai ilaila, he wai mau.
When Isaac's servants dug in the valley, they found there a well of flowing water.
20 Hakaka mai la na kahu bipi no Gerara me na kahu bipi o Isaaka, i ka i ana mai, No makou ia wai: a kapa iho la ia i ka inoa o ua luawai la, o Eseka, no ko lakou hakaka ana mai me ia.
The herdsmen of Gerar quarreled with Isaac's herdsmen, and said, “This water is ours.” So Isaac called that well “Esek,” because they had quarreled with him.
21 Eli iho la hoi lakou i ka luawai hou, a hakaka mai no hoi lakou no ia mea: a kapa iho la oia i kona inoa, o Sitena.
Then they dug another well, and they quarreled over that, too, so he gave it the name of “Sitnah.”
22 Neenee aku la ia mai ia wahi aku, a eli iho la i ka luawai hou; aole no lakou i hakaka mai no ia mea: a kapa iho la oia i kona inoa, o i Rehobota: i iho la ia, ano hoi, ua haawi mai o Iehova i kahi akea no kakou; a e hoohua auanei kakou ma ka aina.
He left there and dug yet another well, but they did not quarrel over that one. So he called it Rehoboth, and he said, “Now Yahweh has made room for us, and we will prosper in the land.”
23 A mahope aku, pii aku la ia malaila aku a Beereseba.
Then Isaac went up from there to Beersheba.
24 Ikea ae la o Iehova e ia ia po iho, i mai la, Owau no ke Akua o Aberahama o kou makuakane: mai makau oe, owau no me oe, a e hoopomaikai no au ia oe a e hoonui hoi i kau poe mamo no ka'u kauwa, no Aberahama.
Yahweh appeared to him that same night and said, “I am the God of Abraham your father. Do not fear, for I am with you and will bless you and multiply your descendants, for my servant Abraham's sake.”
25 Hana iho la ia i kuahu malaila, a kahea aku la ia i ka inoa o Iehova, a kukulu iho la i kona halelewa ilaila: ilaila hoi na kauwa a Isaaka i eli iho ai i ka luawai.
Isaac built an altar there and called on the name of Yahweh. There he pitched his tent, and his servants dug a well.
26 Alaila, hele mai la io na la o Abimeleka mai Gerara mai, oia me Ahuzata kekahi hoalauna ona, a me Pikola ka luna koa o kona poe kaua.
Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar, with Ahuzzath, his friend, and Phicol, the captain of his army.
27 I aku la o Isaaka ia lakou, Heaha ka oukou i hele mai ai io'u nei, no ka mea, ke inaina mai nei oukou ia'u, a ua hookuke mai nei oukou ia'u mai o oukou aku.
Isaac said to them, “Why are you coming to me, since you hate me and have sent me away from you?”
28 Olelo mai la lakou, Ua ike io makou, aia no o Iehova me oe: olelo ae la makou, I hoohiki ana mawaena o kakou, o makou nei, a on la, a e hoopaa makou i berita me oe;
Then they said, “We have clearly seen that Yahweh has been with you. So we decided that there should be an oath between us, yes, between us and you. So let us make a covenant with you,
29 I hana ino ole mai oe ia makou, me makou i hoopa ole aku ai ia oe, o ka maikai wale no ka makou i hana aku ai ia oe, a ua hoihoi aku ia oe me ka maluhia: o oe io no ka mea i hoopomaikaiia e Iehova.
that you will do us no harm, just as we have not harmed you, and as we have treated you well and have sent you away in peace. Indeed, you are blessed by Yahweh.”
30 Hana iho la ia i ahaaina na lakou, ai iho la lakou a inu hoi.
So Isaac made a feast for them, and they ate and drank.
31 Ala ae la lakou i kakahiaka nui, a hoohiki iho la laua, i kekahi i kekahi: hookuu aku la o Isaaka ia lakou, a hoi hou aku la lakou mai ona aku la me ke kuikahi.
They rose early in the morning and swore an oath with each other. Then Isaac sent them away, and they left him in peace.
32 Ia la hookahi no, hele mai la na kauwa a Isaaka, a hai mai la ia ia no ka luawai a lakou i eli iho ai, i mai la ia ia, Ua loaa ia makou ka wai.
That same day Isaac's servants came and told him about the well that they had dug. They said, “We have found water.”
33 Kapa iho la oia ia wahi, o Seba: nolaila, o Beereseba ka inoa o ia kulanakauhale a hiki i keia la.
He called the well Shibah, so the name of that city is Beersheba to this day.
34 Hookahi kanaha na makahiki o Esau ia ia i lawe ai ia Iehudita ke kaikamahine a Beeri no ka Heta, a me Basemata ke kaikamahine a Elona no ka Heta, i mau wahine nana:
When Esau was forty years old, he took a wife, Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and also Basemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite.
35 He mau mea ehaeha laua no ka naau o Isaaka a me Rebeka.
They brought sorrow to Isaac and Rebekah.
