Jenesis 26

1 Agatekna ko'ma Abrahamu knafi fore hu'neankna huno ana mopafina fore higeno, Aisaki'a Gerari kumate Filistia kini ne' Abimelekintega vu'ne.

There was a famine in the country—not the one that happened before in Abraham's time, but a later one. So Isaac moved to Gerar in the territory of Abimelech, king of the Philistines.

2 Ra Anumzamo'a agrite efore huno amanage huno asmi'ne. Nagrama kasmisua mopare manigahananki, Isipia ovuo.

The Lord appeared to Isaac and told him, “Don't go to Egypt—live in the country that I tell you to.

3 Ama mopafi mani'nege'na, Nagra asomu hunegantane'na kagri'ene kagehe'ine ama mopa mika nerami'na, Nagrama huvempa negafa Abrahamuma hunte'noa kea eri knare ha'neno.

Stay here in this country. I will be with you and I will bless you, because I'm going to give you and your descendants all these lands. I will keep the solemn promise that I swore to Abraham your father.

4 Nagra kagehe'ina zamazeri ra ha'nenke'za monafi hanafi kna hanage'na, Nagra ama mopa kagehe'i zamisugeno, kagehe'impinti miko kokankoka vahe'mo'za asomura erigahaze.

I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars of heaven and I will give them all these lands. All the nations of the earth will be blessed by your descendants,

5 Na'ankure kema huankea Abrahamu'a amagenenteno Nagri kasegene tra ke'nianena avariri'ne.

because Abraham did what I told him, and kept my requirements, my commands, my regulations, and my laws.”

6 Ana higeno Aisaki'a Gerari mopare mani'ne.

So Isaac stayed in Gerar.

7 Ana kumate vahe'mo'za Aisakina nenaronku antahi kageno agra a'nimo'e huno huzankura koro nehuno Nensaro'e hu'ne. Hagi agrama agesama antahiana Rebeka'a vahe'mofo anunu hu'are mani'negeno, ana kumate vahe'mo'za ahezanku anage hu'ne.

When the men there asked him about his wife, he told them, “She's my sister,” because he was afraid. He said to himself, “If I say she's my wife, the men here will kill me to get Rebekah, because she's so beautiful.”

8 Za'za kna anampi umaniteno, Aisaki'a nenaro Rebeka agazafe'negeno, Abimeleki'a Filistia kini ne'mo nomofo zaho eri kampinti ke'ne.

But later on, after he'd been there a while, Abimelech, king of the Philistines, happened to look out the window and saw Isaac lovingly fondling his wife Rebekah.

9 Anante Abimeleki'a, Aisakina ke higeno egeno, amanage huno asami'ne, Antahio, tamage huno ami kagri a' mani'ne! Nahigenka kagra nensaro'e hunka hu'nane? Higeno Aisaki'a amanage huno asmi'ne, Na'ankure agriteku hu'za vahe'mo'za nahe fri'zanku anagea hu'noe.

Abimelech sent for Isaac and complained. “From what I saw she's clearly your wife!” he said. “Why on earth did you say, ‘She's my sister’?” “Because I thought I'd be killed because of her,” Isaac replied.

10 Higeno Abimeleki'a amanage hu'ne, Amazana naza hunerantane? Mago vahe'mo'ma neganaro'ene maseresina, kagra mago knaza eri tamisine.

“Why would you do this to us?” Abimelech asked. “One of the men here might have slept with your wife, and you would have made us all guilty!”

11 Anage huteno Abimeleki'a hakare vahe mago kasege antezmanteno amanage hu'ne, aza'o ama nero, nenarono avako'ma hanimofona ahe frigahaze.

Abimelech issued orders to all the people, warning them, “Anyone who touches this man or his wife will be executed.”

12 Hagi Aisaki'a ana mopafina avimaza hozafima hankre'neana ana kafufina 100'a agatereno hamare'ne. Ana higeno Ra Anumzamo'a asomu hunte'ne.

Isaac sowed grain that year, and the Lord blessed him with a harvest that was a hundred times what he planted.

13 Ana higeno Aisaki'a feno ne' fore nehuno, mago'ene ra huno tusi'a feno anteno, mika feno ante agatere'nea ne' mani'ne.

He became a rich man, and his wealth steadily increased until he was very rich.

14 Aisaki'a sipisipi zagane, memeki zagane, Bulimakaone, eri'za vahe'ene, rama'a ante'nege'za, Filistia vahe'mo'za zamasigu hunte'naze.

He owned many flocks of sheep and herds of cattle, as well as many slaves. He had so much that the Philistines became jealous of him.

15 Ana hige'za mika tinkerima agri nefa Abrahamu eri'za vahe'mo'zama ko'ma kafimante'nazana, Filisti'a vahe'mo'za mopa kate'za refite'naze.

So the Philistines used dirt to block up all the wells his father Abraham's servants had dug.

16 Hagi henka Abimeleki'a amanage huno Aisakina asmi'ne, Kagra tagrira tagaterenka hanave'nentake hananki, tagri'pintira atrenka vuo.

Then Abimelech told Isaac, “You have to leave our country, because you've become much too powerful for us.”

17 Hazageno Aisaki'a atreno Gerari agupofi seli no omegino anantega mani'ne.

So Isaac moved away and set up his tents in the Gerar Valley where he settled down.

18 Hagi Aisaki'a eteno korapa Abrahamu kafinte'nea tinkeriramina eri so'e hu'ne. Na'ankure nefa'ma fritege'za Filistia vahe'mo'za refite'naza tinkeri raminkino, kafiteno nefa'ma ami'nea agi'aramina erikasefa huno antetere hu'ne.

He unblocked the wells that had been dug in his father Abraham's time—the ones the Philistines had blocked after the death of Abraham. He gave them the same names his father had.

19 Aisaki eri'za vahe'mo'za ana agupofi tinkeri nesageno, anampinti ti hanatino mareri'ne.

Isaac's servants also dug a new well in the valley and found spring water.

20 Hianagi Gerari afu kva vahe'mo'za, Aisaki afu kva vahera frage huzmante'za amanage hu'naze. Ama tagri tine! Hazageno Aisaki'a agi'a Eseki'e huno ante'ne. Na'ankure zamagra frage hunante'nazagu hu'ne.

But the herdsmen from Gerar argued with Isaac's herdsmen, claiming, “That's our water!” So Isaac named the well, “Argument,” because they argued with him.

21 Aisaki eri'za vahe'mo'za mago'ane ru tinkeri nesageno, esaza hu'za Gerari vahe'mo'za fra vazizmente'naze. Fra vazizageno negeno, Aisaki'a ana tinkerimofona Sitne huno agia ante'ne.

He had another well dug, and they argued over that one too. He named the well, “Opposition.”

22 Aisaki'a ana tinkeria atreno ru tinkeri ome kafige'za, hafra huontageno, ana tinkerimofo agi'a Rehoboti'e huno nenteno anage hu'ne, na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a tazahuno kankamuna retro hurante'neankita, ama ana mopare manineta, maka zampina knare hugahune.

So they moved on from there and he had another well dug. This time there was no argument so he named the well, “Freedom,” saying, “Now the Lord has given us freedom to expand and be successful in this land.”

23 Hagi Aisaki'a ana kumara atreno marerino Berseba kumate uhanati'ne.

From there he moved on to Beersheba.

24 Ana'ma uhanatia kenegera Ra Anumzamo'a efore humino amanage huno asami'ne, Nagra Abrahamu nafaka'amofo Anumzane, e'igu korora osuo. Nagra kagrane mani'nena asomura hunegantena henka'a kagripinti kegehe'za fore hanamoki'zminena zamazeri hakare hugahue. Na'ankure Abrahamu'a Nagri eri'za vahe mani'negu anara hugahue.

That night the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am the God of Abraham your father. Don't be afraid, for I am with you. I will bless you and give you many descendants for the sake of my servant Abraham.”

25 Hutegeno Aisaki'a ana kumatera Kresramana vu ita trohuno, Ra Anumzamofo agi hanta vazino ana kumateke seli no azeri onetige'za, Aisaki eri'za vahe'mo'za mago tinkeri kafi'naze.

Isaac built an altar and worshiped the Lord. He also set up his tent, and his servants dug a well there.

26 Hagi Abimeleki'a Aisaki ome kenaku Gerari nevuno, magora knare antahintahi nemia ne' agi'a Ahusati'e, hanki magora sondia vahe'amofo kva ne' Fikoligizni neznavreno vu'ne.

Sometime later Abimelech came from Gerar to see Isaac, along with Ahuzzath his advisor, and Phicol the commander of his army.

27 Aisaki'a amanage huno zamantahige'ne, Ko'ma mopa tamifintira tamavesra hunanteta nahe nati'nazanki, tamagra na'anku nagritega neaze?

“Why have you come to see me?” Isaac asked them. “Previously you hated me and told me to leave!”

28 Higeno ana kemofo nona'a anage hu'naze, Ra Anumzamo'a kagrane mani'neno kaza nehigeta negeta, tagra anage nehune, Kagri ene tagri ene amu'notifina tamage hunka huvempa naneke hugeta kagrane, tagranena hagerfita mani'maneno.

“Now we realize that the Lord is with you,” they replied. “So we agreed that we should make a sworn agreement with you.

29 Kagra, tagrira tazeri havizana osugahane. Tagra kazeri havizana kagrira osuta, trimpa frune hugantonkenka e'nane. Menina Ra Anumzamo knare huneganteno asomura hunegante.

You'll promise not to harm us in the same way we've never hurt you. You'll agree that we've always treated you well, and when we asked you to leave we did so kindly. Now look at how the Lord is blessing you!”

30 Hazageno ana kezmia nentahino, Aisaki'a ra kave kre zamentege'za tine ana ne'zana ne'naze.

So Isaac had a special meal prepared to celebrate the agreement. They ate and drank,

31 Nanterame oti'za raruma hu'za manisaza huvempagea hute'za, anante Aisaki'a huno, Tamarimpa frune viho, huno huzmantege'za vu'naze.

and got up early in the morning and they each swore oaths to one other. Then Isaac sent them on their way, and they left in peace.

32 Ana'ma huzamantege'za vaza zupa, Aisaki eri'za vahe'mo'za amanage hu'za eme asmi'naze. Hago mago tinkerima kafinompintira tina fore hie.

It was that very day when Isaac's servants who'd been digging a well came and told him, “We've found water!”

33 Ana tinkerimofo agi'a Sibae huno ante'ne. Meninena ana kumamo'a rahige'za Berseba kumare hu'za nehaze.

So Isaac named the well, “Oath,” and that's why the name of the town is “Well of the Oath” (Beersheba) to this day.

34 Iso'a 40'a zagegafu maniteno, Hiti ne'mofo mofa' eri'ne, agi'a Juditi'e, nefa'a Beri'e. Hanki mago a'amofo agi'a Basematikino Hiti ne' Eloni mofare.

When Esau was 40, he married Judith, daughter of Beeri the Hittite, as well as Basemath, daughter of Elon the Hittite.

35 Ana a'tremokizni mani'zamo Aisakine Rebekagiznia zanarimpa zanata zanami'ne.

They caused Isaac and Rebekah a great deal of grief.
