< Jenesis 24 >
1 Abrahamuna tusiza huno hakare'a zama'afina Ra Anumzamo'a asomu hunentegeno manino vuno ozafare'ne.
Abraham was old, and well advanced in age. The LORD had blessed Abraham in all things.
2 Korapa eri'za ne'a, maka'a fenonte'ene nonte kegava kri'nea ne'ku, Abrahamu'a amanage huno asami'ne, Muse (plis) hugantoanki kazana namo'mofo fenka antenenka,
Abraham said to his servant, the elder of his house, who ruled over all that he had, “Please put your hand under my thigh.
3 monane mopanema tro'ma hu'nea Anumzante kagra huvempa hunantenka, Kenani mopafintira ara ne'nimofona avre omigahue hunka huo.
I will make you swear by the LORD, the God of heaven and the God of the earth, that you shall not take a wife for my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I live.
4 Hagi vunka mopa agafa'niare vahe'niafinti a' uvrenka Aisakina eme amio.
But you shall go to my country, and to my relatives, and take a wife for my son Isaac.”
5 Higeno eri'za ne'amo'a Abrahamuna asamino, Hagi ana a'mo'ma navaririno'ma ama mopare omena, ete negamofona avre'na mopakare ome atregahufi?
The servant said to him, “What if the woman isn’t willing to follow me to this land? Must I bring your son again to the land you came from?”
6 Higeno Abrahamu'a eri'za ne'a asamino, I'o hue! Ne'nimofona avrenka ovutfa hugahane.
Abraham said to him, “Beware that you don’t bring my son there again.
7 Hagi monafinkati Ra Anumzamo'ma nenfa vahepinti'ene fore hu'noa mopareti'ma nagima huteno, navareno eme nante'nea Anumzamo'a amanage huno huvempa huno nasmi'ne, ama mopa nagakamofo zamigahue huno hu'neankino, Anumzamo'a mago ankero vahera huntenkeno kagota huno vanigenka, Aisaki nenarona anantegati uvarenka egahane.
The LORD, the God of heaven—who took me from my father’s house, and from the land of my birth, who spoke to me, and who swore to me, saying, ‘I will give this land to your offspring—he will send his angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from there.
8 Hagi ana a'mo'ma ovugahuema hinkenka huvempama hu'nana kegura korora osunka atrenka eno. Hagi ne'nimofona ana moparera avrenka ovugahane.
If the woman isn’t willing to follow you, then you shall be clear from this oath to me. Only you shall not bring my son there again.”
9 Anage higeno, eri'za ne'amo'a azana Abrahamu amo'mofo fenka anteno, anankerera huvempa hu'ne.
The servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and swore to him concerning this matter.
10 Eri'za ne'amo'a ozafa'amofo kemoriramimpintira 10ni'a kemori afu nezmavreno, mago'a knare'nare zana e'nerino, otino Nahori rankumate Mesopotamia vu'ne.
The servant took ten of his master’s camels, and departed, having a variety of good things of his master’s with him. He arose, and went to Mesopotamia, to the city of Nahor.
11 Eri'za ne'mo'ma anantegama vuteno'a, kemori afu'tmina zamazeri zamarena rezmantege'za, kinaga a'nemo'za ti nefiza knare rankuma'mofo fegi'a tinkerire mani'naze.
He made the camels kneel down outside the city by the well of water at the time of evening, the time that women go out to draw water.
12 Eri'za ne'mo'a amanage huno nunamu hu'ne, Ra Anumzane, kvanimofo Abrahamu Anumzamoka muse (plis) hugantoanki, menina antahinaminka, ozafani'a Abrahamuna avesintenka azeri so'e hanane!
He said, “LORD, the God of my master Abraham, please give me success today, and show kindness to my master Abraham.
13 Ko, ama tinkerire nagra otina mani'noankino, rankumate vahe'mokizmi mofanemo'za ti afinakura egahaze.
Behold, I am standing by the spring of water. The daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water.
14 Mago mofaku'ma hu'na, muse (plis) hugantoanki, ti afi kavoka'a ante mopafitege'na tina afi'na na'neno nehanugeno, tina nenege'na kemorika'a tina afi zami'neno huno hanimo, eri'za neka'a Aisaki nenaro'za hugahie. Anama hinke'na ozafani'a Abrahamuna avesintenka azeri so'e hane hu'na hugahue.
Let it happen, that the young lady to whom I will say, ‘Please let down your pitcher, that I may drink,’ then she says, ‘Drink, and I will also give your camels a drink,’—let her be the one you have appointed for your servant Isaac. By this I will know that you have shown kindness to my master.”
15 Ana eri'za ne'mo'a nunamuna huvaga ore'negeno, mago mofara Rebekakino agra ti afi kavo afunte kofi'neno rankumapintira atirmino e'ne. Rebeka'a Betueli mofa mani'neankino Milka kasente'ne. (Milka'a Abrahamu negna Nahori nenaro'e).
Before he had finished speaking, behold, Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel the son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham’s brother, with her pitcher on her shoulder.
16 Ana mofara vemo ke asane hu'are, vene'nene omase'nea mofamo, tinkerirega uramino kavo'afi ti omefirino marerino e'ne.
The young lady was very beautiful to look at, a virgin. No man had known her. She went down to the spring, filled her pitcher, and came up.
17 Abrahamu eri'za ne'mo'a, ana mofa'mo'ma ti afirino marenerigeno agia reno vuno anage huno ome antahigene, Muse hugantoanki kavoka'afinti osi'a tina namisnanke'na nesanue.
The servant ran to meet her, and said, “Please give me a drink, a little water from your pitcher.”
18 Higeno ana mofa'mo'a anage hu'ne. Ranimoka amne negahane, nehuno ana kavo'a anteramino azeri sga huntegeno ne'ne.
She said, “Drink, my lord.” She hurried, and let down her pitcher on her hand, and gave him a drink.
19 Amigeno netegeno, ana mofa'mo'a anage hu'ne, Kemorika'a ana zanke hu'na tina afi zami'nena nezmu hugahaze.
When she had finished giving him a drink, she said, “I will also draw for your camels, until they have finished drinking.”
20 Huteno ame huno Rebeka'a tina kavo'afinti afu'moza ti nenaza zompafi taginte zamantege'za nenageno, ufino ete ete huno neragige'za ana maka kemorimo'za nezamu hu'naze.
She hurried, and emptied her pitcher into the trough, and ran again to the well to draw, and drew for all his camels.
21 Ana nehigeno Abrahanu eriza ne'mo ke osuno ana mofa'mofo avufi negeno, kama e'noa zamofona, Anumzamo'a ama naza hu'za nehifi huno agesa antahi'ne.
The man looked steadfastly at her, remaining silent, to know whether the LORD had made his journey prosperous or not.
22 Kemorimo'za tina nehana hutageno, ana eri'za ne'mo'a golire tro hu'naza rini kna'amo'a 5fu'a gremi hu'neane, manogosane, golire tro hu'nea tare asana tarega azampi antaninte'neankino golimofo kna'amo'a 100'a grem hu'ne.
As the camels had done drinking, the man took a golden ring of half a shekel weight, and two bracelets for her hands of ten shekels weight of gold,
23 Nehuno ana mofaku huno, Muse (plis) hugantoanki iza mofa kagra mani'nampi nasamio? Knare negafa nompina kankamuna me'nesigu ama nagranema enaza vahe'enena umasegahuno?
and said, “Whose daughter are you? Please tell me. Is there room in your father’s house for us to stay?”
24 Higeno ana mofa'mo'a anage huno asami'ne, Nagra Betuel mofa mani'noe. Milkane, Nahorigizni mofavremo kasenante'ne.
She said to him, “I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, whom she bore to Nahor.”
25 Ana mofa'mo'a mago'ane eri'za nera asmino, kemorimo'ma nesia ne'zane trazanena hakare'a megeno, mase kankamunena me'neankinka meni kenagera masegahane.
She said moreover to him, “We have both straw and feed enough, and room to lodge in.”
26 Higeno ana ne'mo'a kepri huno, Ra Anumza'mofona mono hunte'ne.
The man bowed his head, and worshiped the LORD.
27 Ana huteno ana eri'za ne'mo'a anage hu'ne, Kvani'a Abrahamu Ra Anumzamofona ra agi amue. Ozafa'nimofona agekani onteno soe'za hunenteno aza nehie. Hanki nagrira Ra Anumzamo naza nehuno kana naverige'na, ozafanimofo afu'agna nompi efatgo hue.
He said, “Blessed be the LORD, the God of my master Abraham, who has not forsaken his loving kindness and his truth toward my master. As for me, the LORD has led me on the way to the house of my master’s relatives.”
28 Anage higeno ana mofa'mo'a agia reno nerera nompi mani'namokizmi ana naneke ome zamasmi'ne.
The young lady ran, and told her mother’s house about these words.
29 Hagi Rebeka nempu'amofo agi'a Lebani'e. Lebani'a agia reno rankumamofo fegi'a tifi kerire'ma mani'nea nete vu'ne.
Rebekah had a brother, and his name was Laban. Laban ran out to the man, to the spring.
30 Hagi nesaro Rebekama agonafima manogosane, azampima asama antani'neno ana eri'za ne'mo'ma asami'nea kema ome asamigeno nentahino'a, Lebani'a vuno ome keana tinkerire ana ne'mo'a kemori afu'zagane oti'negeno ome ke'ne.
When he saw the ring, and the bracelets on his sister’s hands, and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister, saying, “This is what the man said to me,” he came to the man. Behold, he was standing by the camels at the spring.
31 Lebani'a ana nera asamino, Ra Anumzamo'a asomu hugantene'moka no agu'afi emarerio. Nahigenka fegira mani'nane, noma masesana zane kamorimokizmi kuma'enena nagra ko erise hunte'noe.
He said, “Come in, you blessed of the LORD. Why do you stand outside? For I have prepared the house, and room for the camels.”
32 Hagi ana ne'mo'ma nompima marerigeno'a, anante Lebani'a kemori agumpinti fenoma'a erinenteno, osapa trazane ne'zane kemorimofona nezmino, agia sesehu ti tagi zamige'za agrane e'naza vahe'ene zamaga sese hu'naze.
The man came into the house, and he unloaded the camels. He gave straw and feed for the camels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of the men who were with him.
33 Ne'za kre'za avuga eme antenentageno ana eri'za ne'mo'a amanage hu'ne, Kavera one'nena amafima e'noa zamofo agafa'a tamasamite'na ne'zana negahue. Higeno Lebani'a anage hu'ne, Knareki tasamisanketa antahisune.
Food was set before him to eat, but he said, “I will not eat until I have told my message.” Laban said, “Speak on.”
34 Higeno ana eri'za ne'mo'a anage hu'ne, Nagra Abrahamu eri'za ne' e'noe.
He said, “I am Abraham’s servant.
35 Ra Anumzamo'a tusiza huno ozafa'nimofona asomu hunentegeno afufeno ne' mani'ne. Ra Anumzamo'a sipisipima, bulimakaoma, silvama, golima, eri'za vene'nema, eri'za a'nema, kemorima, donkima huno ami'ne.
The LORD has blessed my master greatly. He has become great. The LORD has given him flocks and herds, silver and gold, male servants and female servants, and camels and donkeys.
36 Hanki kva'nimofo nenaro Sera'a tavavateteno ne'mofavre kase amigeno, kvanimo'a mika zama'a ana mofavremofo ami vagare'ne.
Sarah, my master’s wife, bore a son to my master when she was old. He has given all that he has to him.
37 Kva'nimo'a huvempa hunanteno, amama emani'noa Kenani vahe'mokizmi mopafintira ne' mofavreni'arera ara avre omigahane huno hu'ne.
My master made me swear, saying, ‘You shall not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I live,
38 Hianagi vunka nenfa mopa agafareti, vahe'niafinti ara ome avrenka ne' mofavreni'a eme amio.
but you shall go to my father’s house, and to my relatives, and take a wife for my son.’
39 Hige'na nagra kva'nimofonkura anage hu'noe. Ana a'mo'ma navaririno omenke'na na'a hugahue?
I asked my master, ‘What if the woman will not follow me?’
40 Hugeno agra huno, nagrama amage'ma nentoa Ra Anumzamo'a, Agra ankero vahe'a huntenkeno kagrane nevina, kama vanana kamo'a knare hanigenka, vahe'ni'afinti nenfa nagapinti ne'nimofo ara uvregahane hu'ne.
He said to me, ‘The LORD, before whom I walk, will send his angel with you, and prosper your way. You shall take a wife for my son from my relatives, and of my father’s house.
41 Hagi kagrama nagri vahepima vananke'za, ana a'ma onkamisnageno'a, nagrama huvempa hu'noa kemo'a kaze'origahie.
Then you will be clear from my oath, when you come to my relatives. If they don’t give her to you, you shall be clear from my oath.’
42 Hige'na nagra tinkerire enehanati'na amanage hu'na nunamuna hu'noe, Ra Anumzamoka kvanimofo Abrahamu Anumzamoka naza nehanankeno kama e'noa kamo'a knare hugahianki,
I came today to the spring, and said, ‘The LORD, the God of my master Abraham, if now you do prosper my way which I go—
43 amare nagra oti'na tinkerire mani'nesnugeno, ina mofamo'o ti afiku'ma esanige'na ana mofaku hu'na, muse (plis) hugantoanki tina kavoka'afintira osi'a namige'na na'neno hanugeno,
behold, I am standing by this spring of water. Let it happen, that the maiden who comes out to draw, to whom I will say, “Please give me a little water from your pitcher to drink,”
44 ana mofamo'ma nasmino, tina nenege'na kemorikamokizmi tina afi'na eme zami'neno huno hanimo, kvanimofo ne'mofo ara Kagra hampri nentane hu'na antahigahue.
then she tells me, “Drink, and I will also draw for your camels,”—let her be the woman whom the LORD has appointed for my master’s son.’
45 Anage hu'na nagu'afinka nunamuna nehugeno, Rebeka'a kavo afunte kofino tinkerireti ti afinaku uramigena kete'na, muse (plis) hugantoanki ti afi namige'na na'neno.
Before I had finished speaking in my heart, behold, Rebekah came out with her pitcher on her shoulder. She went down to the spring, and drew. I said to her, ‘Please let me drink.’
46 Hugeno kavo'a afuntetira ame huno anteme neramino amanage hu'ne, Tina nenege'na, kemorika'aramina tina afi zamineno huno hige'na, nenogeno kemori nagara ti afizamige'za ne'naze.
She hurried and let down her pitcher from her shoulder, and said, ‘Drink, and I will also give your camels a drink.’ So I drank, and she also gave the camels a drink.
47 Ana higena nagra anage hu'na antahige'noe, kagra iza mofa mani'nane? Hugeno Nahori nenaro Milka'ma kasentenea mofavre Betueli mofa mani'noe huno higena, agonafi rinia renente'na, asana azantrempi antaninte'noe.
I asked her, and said, ‘Whose daughter are you?’ She said, ‘The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor’s son, whom Milcah bore to him.’ I put the ring on her nose, and the bracelets on her hands.
48 Ana hute'na kepri hu'na Ra Anumzamofona mono hunte'noe. Ra Anumzamofo agi ahesga hu'na, kvanimofo Abrahamu Anumzamo'a kva hunantege'na kvani'mofo afu'aganampinti ne'amofo ara kena erifore hu'noe.
I bowed my head, and worshiped the LORD, and blessed the LORD, the God of my master Abraham, who had led me in the right way to take my master’s brother’s daughter for his son.
49 Hagi menima kva'nimofoma antahimisuta, na'ane huna ome asamigahufi nasami fatgo hiho. Hagi anama osanuta nasaminke'na, nagra nentahi'na, nazano hunaku'ma hanua zana ha'neno.
Now if you will deal kindly and truly with my master, tell me. If not, tell me, that I may turn to the right hand, or to the left.”
50 Anage hige'ne Lebanike, Betuelikea ana kemofo nona'a anage huke asami'na'e, Ra Anumzamo amanahu'zana higu, tagra mago kea osugahu'e.
Then Laban and Bethuel answered, “The thing proceeds from the LORD. We can’t speak to you bad or good.
51 Rebeka'a ama kavuga mani'neanki, Ra Anumzamo'ma kema hiaza hunka avrenka vugeno, kva kamofo ne'mofo nenaro'za ome hino.
Behold, Rebekah is before you. Take her, and go, and let her be your master’s son’s wife, as the LORD has spoken.”
52 Hagi Abrahamu eri'za ne'mo'ma ana kema nentahino'a, kepri huno mopafi rena reno Ra Anumzamofona muse hunte'ne.
When Abraham’s servant heard their words, he bowed himself down to the earth to the LORD.
53 Abrahamu eri'za ne'mo'a avasese hu'zana silvare'ene, golire tro hu'naza zane, kukenane Rebekana nemino, ana zanke huno mago'a knare'nare zantamina zago'amo mareri'nea zana nesarone, nererane zanami'ne.
The servant brought out jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and clothing, and gave them to Rebekah. He also gave precious things to her brother and her mother.
54 Ana hutege'za ana eri'za ne'ene agrane e'naza naga'mo'zanena kave'ene tinena nete'za mase'naze. Ko'atige'za o'neti'za nanterampi Abrahamu eri'za ne'mo'a amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Nazeorita natrenke'na ete kvanimo'ma maninerega va'neno.
They ate and drank, he and the men who were with him, and stayed all night. They rose up in the morning, and he said, “Send me away to my master.”
55 Hianagi nempu'amo'ene nererakea anage hu'na'e, A'o, atrenkeno mago'agna maniteno, 10ni'agna nazana agaterete'na avreta vugahaze.
Her brother and her mother said, “Let the young lady stay with us a few days, at least ten. After that she will go.”
56 Hianagi eri'za ne'mo'a huno, Ra Anumzamo naza higeno eri'zanimo'a knare hianki, nazeri onteta natrenke'na ete kvanima mani'nerega va'neno.
He said to them, “Don’t hinder me, since the LORD has prospered my way. Send me away that I may go to my master.”
57 Higene, ana mofa'mofo avesi antahigeta kesune,
They said, “We will call the young lady, and ask her.”
58 nehu'za Rebekana ke hakeno ege'ne antahige'na'e, Kagra ama ne'enena vugahano? Hazageno ana mofamo'a huno, ozo vugahue.
They called Rebekah, and said to her, “Will you go with this man?” She said, “I will go.”
59 Anagema hige'za zamagra nezmasaro Rebekama, kegavama hunentea a'ene, Abrahamu eri'za ne'ene, agranema e'naza naga'ene ana makamokizmia huzmante'naze.
They sent away Rebekah, their sister, with her nurse, Abraham’s servant, and his men.
60 Rebekana asomu ke hunente'za amanage hu'naze, Tagri nersaroga, kagripintira tusi'a vahe krerfa fore hugahaze. Hagi kagri kagehe'za zamesi ozmantesaza vahe'mokizmi rankumazmi zamahe'za hanaregahaze.
They blessed Rebekah, and said to her, “Our sister, may you be the mother of thousands of ten thousands, and let your offspring possess the gate of those who hate them.”
61 Hagi Rebeka'ene mago'a agri eri'za a'nene kemori agumpi mareri'za, ana ne'mofo amage vu'naze. Higeno Abrahamu eri'za ne'mo'a Rebekana avreno vu'ne.
Rebekah arose with her ladies. They rode on the camels, and followed the man. The servant took Rebekah, and went his way.
62 Hagi ana knafina Aisaki'a Ber-lahai-roiti eno, Negev emani'ne.
Isaac came from the way of Beer Lahai Roi, for he lived in the land of the South.
63 Aisaki'a mago kinaga vuno hofage kopi umani'neno agesa antahi antahi nehuno kesga huno keana, kemori'zaga neageno ke'ne.
Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the evening. He lifted up his eyes and looked. Behold, there were camels coming.
64 Rebeka'a kesga huno Aisakina negeno, kemori agumpinti eramino,
Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac, she got off the camel.
65 eri'za nekura amanage hu'ne, Aza amanu nera tavrenakura ne-e? Higeno eri'za ne'mo'a huno, E'i nagri kvani'e, higeno Rebeka'a tavrave erino avugosa refite'ne.
She said to the servant, “Who is the man who is walking in the field to meet us?” The servant said, “It is my master.” She took her veil, and covered herself.
66 Hagi eri'za ne'mo'a hakare zama hu'nea zana Aisakina asami vagare'ne.
The servant told Isaac all the things that he had done.
67 Ana hutegeno Aisaki'a Rebekana avreno nerera Sera seli nompi ome antegeno nenaro'za higeno, avesintene. Aisakina nerera'a fri'nere amena eme arentinti hu'ne.
Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah’s tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife. He loved her. So Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death.
