Genesis 20
1 Nagdaliasat ni Abraham manipud sadiay a nagturong iti daga ti Negeb iti nagbaetan ti Kades ken Sur. Isuna ket gangganaet nga agnanaed iti Gerar.
Abraham left Mamre and moved southwest to the Negev desert and lived in a place named Gerar, between Kadesh and Shur.
2 Kastoy ti imbaga ni Abraham maipapan kenni Sarah nga asawana, “Isuna ket kabsatko a babai.” Isu a nangibaon ni Abimelec nga ari ti Gerar kadagiti soldadona ket innalada ni Sarah.
While he was there, he told people that Sarah was his sister, not his wife. Then King Abimelech of Gerar sent some of his men to Sarah, and they brought her to him to be his wife.
3 Ngem immay ti Dios kenni Abimelec iti rabii babaen iti tagtagainep ket kinunana kenkuana, “Kitaem, kaiyarigam ti natay a tao gapu iti babai nga innalam ta asawa isuna ti maysa a lalaki.”
But God appeared to Abimelech in a dream during the night and said to him, “Listen to me! You are going to die because the woman you took is another man’s wife.”
4 Ita, saan pay nga immasideg ni Abimelec kenkuana ket kinunana, “Apo, papatayem kadi uray ti nalinteg a nasion?
But Abimelech had not had sex [EUP] with her, so he said, “God, since the people of my nation and I am innocent; will you kill me?
5 Saan kadi nga isuna a mismo ti nangibaga kaniak, 'Isuna ket kabsatko a babai'? Uray isuna a mismo ket kinunana nga 'Isuna ket kabsatko a lalaki.' Naaramidko daytoy a nadalus ti pusok ken awan basol kadagiti imak.”
He told me, ‘She is my sister,’ and she also said, ‘He is my brother.’ I did this with pure motives and I [SYN] have not done anything wrong yet.”
6 Kalpasanna, kinuna ti Dios kenkuana iti tagtagainepna. “Wen ammok met nga inaramidmo daytoy a nadalus ti pusom ket inlisika met iti panagbasolmo kaniak. Isu a saanko nga impalubos a sagidem isuna.
God said to him in another dream, “Yes, I know that your motives were pure. That is why I truly prevented you from sinning against me. I did not allow you to have sex [EUP] with her.
7 Ngarud, isublim ti asawa ti lalaki, ta maysa isuna a profeta. Ikararagannakanto ket agbiagkanto. Ngem no saanmo nga isubli ti babai, ammoem a sika ken amin a kukuam ket awan duadua a matayto.”
Now, return this man’s wife to her husband, because he is (a prophet/a man who receives messages from me). He will pray for you, and you will (remain alive/not die). But if you do not return her to him, you will certainly die, and all the members of your household will also certainly die.”
8 Nasapa a bimmangon ni Abimelec iti agsapa ket inayabanna amin dagiti adipenna. Imbagana amin dagitoy a banag kadakuada ket nakaro ti buteng dagiti lallaki.
Early the next morning, Abimelech summoned all his officials, and told them everything that had happened. When they heard that [MTY], his men were very afraid [that God would punish them].
9 Kalpasanna ket pinaayaban ni Abimelec ni Abraham ket kinunana kenkuana, “Ania daytoy nga inaramidmo kadakami? Kasano a nakabasolak kenka, ta inyegmo kaniak ken iti pagariak ti dakkel a basol? Inaramidmo kaniak ti saan a rumbeng.”
Abimelech then summoned Abraham, and said to him, “You should not have done that to us [RHQ]! Did I do something wrong to you, with the result that you are causing me and the people in [MTY] my kingdom to be guilty of committing a great sin [RHQ]? You have done things to me that (should not be done/you should not have done)!”
10 Kinuna ni Abimelec kenni Abraham, “Ania ti nangiduron kenka a mangaramid iti daytoy a banag?”
Abimelech asked Abraham, “What was your reason for doing this?”
11 Kinuna ni Abraham, “Gapu ta impagarupko, 'Sigurado nga awan ti panagbuteng iti Dios iti daytoy a lugar ket patayendak gapu iti asawak.'
Abraham replied, “I said that because I thought, ‘They certainly do not respect God in this place. If they don’t respect God, they will not respect relationships with others. [If I say she is my sister, they will try to pay me a bride price] to get her. But if I say she is my wife, they will kill me to get her.’
12 Malaksid iti dayta, pudno a kabsatko isuna, ta anak isuna ti amak ngem saan nga anak ti inak; ket nagbalin isuna nga asawak.”
Besides, she really [can be considered] my sister, because she is the daughter of my father, although she is not the daughter of my mother. She is the daughter of another woman, and I married her.
13 Idi imbaga ti Dios a panawak ti pagtaengan ti amak tapno agdaliasat manipud iti maysa a lugar nga agturong iti maysa a lugar, kinunak kenkuana, 'Masapul nga ipakitam kaniak ti kinapudnom a kas asawak: Iti tunggal lugar a papananta, kastoy ti ibagam maipapan kaniak, “Isu ket kabsatko a lalaki.'”
Later, when God told me to move away from my father’s household, I said to her, ‘This is the way you can show that you love me: Everywhere we go, say about me, “This is my brother.”’”
14 Kalpasanna, nangala ni Abimelec iti karnero, kalakian a baka, lalaki ken babai a tagabu ket intedna dagitoy kenni Abraham. Kalpasanna, insublina kenkuana ni Sarah nga asawana.
So Abimelech brought some sheep and cattle and male and female slaves and gave them to Abraham. And he returned his wife Sarah to him.
15 Kinuna ni Abimelec, “Kitaem, adda iti sanggoanam ti dagak. Aggianka iti sadinoman a kayatmo.”
And Abimelech said to him, “Look! All my land is here in front of you. Live in whatever place you like!”
16 Kenni Sara kinunana, “Kitaem, inikkak ti kabsatmo iti sangaribu a pidaso ti pirak. Daytoy ti mangakkob iti aniaman a babak kenka iti imatang ti amin a kaduam, ken iti sangoanan ti amin, naan-anayka a napalinteg.”
And he said to Sarah, “Look here, I am giving 1,000 pieces of silver to your brother. This is to insure that no one will [bring up this matter again and] say that I have done something wrong. [EUP, IDM]”
17 Kalpasanna, nagkararag ni Abraham iti Dios ket pinaimbag ti Dios ni Abimelec, ti asawana ken dagiti babbai a tagabuna isu a naaddaanda iti kabaelan nga aganak.
Then Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abimelech’s wife and his slave girls so that they could become pregnant.
18 Ta pinagbalin ni Yahweh a baog dagiti babbai iti pagtaengan ni Abimelec, gapu kenni Sarah nga asawa ni Abraham.
This was because Yahweh had caused it to be impossible for any of the women in Abimelech’s household to bear children, because Abimelech had taken Abraham’s wife Sarah.
