Genesisy 26

1 Ary nisy mosary indray teo amin’ ny tany afa-tsy ilay mosary voalohany fony fahavelon’ i Abrahama. Ary Isaka nankany amin’ i Abimeleka mpanjakan’ ny Filistina, tany Gerara.

And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to Abimelech king of the Philistines to Gerar.

2 Ary Jehovah niseho taminy ka nanao hoe: Aza midìna any Egypta ianao; mitoera eo amin’ ny tany izay holazaiko aminao.

And the LORD appeared to him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell you of:

3 Mivahinia eto amin’ ity tany ity ianao, dia homba anao sy hitahy anao Aho; fa ianao sy ny taranakao no homeko ireto tany rehetra ireto, ka hotoviko ny fianianana izay nataoko tamin’ i Abrahama rainao;

Sojourn in this land, and I will be with you, and will bless you; for to you, and to your seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I swore to Abraham your father;

4 dia hahamaro ny taranakao ho tahaka ny kintana eny amin’ ny lanitra Aho, ka homeko ny taranakao ireto tany rehetra ireto, ary amin’ ny taranakao no hitahiana ny firenena rehetra ambonin’ ny tany;

And I will make your seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give to your seed all these countries; and in your seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;

5 satria efa nihaino ny feoko Abrahama ka nitandrina izay nasaiko notandremany, dia ny didiko sy ny teniko ary ny lalàko.

Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.

6 Ary Isaka dia nitoetra tany Gerara.

And Isaac dwelled in Gerar:

7 Ary ny lehilahy tompon-tany nanontany ny amin’ ny vadiny; ary hoy kosa izy: Anabaviko izy; fa natahotra hilaza hoe: Vadiko izy, fandrao, hoy izy, hamono ahy ny lehilahy tompon-tany noho Rebeka, satria tsara tarehy izy.

And the men of the place asked him of his wife; and he said, She is my sister: for he feared to say, She is my wife; lest, said he, the men of the place should kill me for Rebekah; because she was fair to look on.

8 Ary rehefa nitoetra ela teo izy, dia nitsirika teo am-baravarankely Abimeleka, mpanjakan’ ny Filistina, ka nahita fa, indro, Isaka nisangy tamin-dRebeka vadiny.

And it came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked out at a window, and saw, and, behold, Isaac was sporting with Rebekah his wife.

9 Ary Abimeleka dia niantso an’ Isaka ka nanao hoe: Efa hita mihitsy fa vadinao izy, ka nahoana no nolazainao hoe: Anabaviko izy? Ary hoy Isaka taminy: Satria hoy izaho anakampo: Fandrao maty aho noho ny aminy.

And Abimelech called Isaac, and said, Behold, of a surety she is your wife; and how said you, She is my sister? And Isaac said to him, Because I said, Lest I die for her.

10 Ary hoy Abimeleka: Inona izao nataonao taminay izao? Saiky nisy nandry tamin’ ny vadinao ny olona, dia ho nahatonga heloka taminay ianao.

And Abimelech said, What is this you have done to us? one of the people might lightly have lien with your wife, and you should have brought guiltiness on us.

11 Dia nandidy ny vahoakany rehetra Abimeleka ka nanao hoe: Izay manendry io lehilahy io na ny vadiny dia hatao maty tokoa.

And Abimelech charged all his people, saying, He that touches this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.

12 Dia namafy tamin’ izany tany izany Isaka ka nahazo zato heny tamin’ izay taona izay, satria efa notahin’ i Jehovah izy.

Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundred times: and the LORD blessed him.

13 Ary nanan-karena ralehilahy ka nandroso sy nitombo ambara-pahatongany ho mpanjatobe indrindra;

And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great:

14 fa nanana fananana be izy, dia ondry aman’ osy sy omby ary andevo maro; ka dia nialona azy ny Filistina.

For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him.

15 Ary ny lavaka fantsakana rehetra, izay efa nohadin’ ny mpanompon-drainy fony fahavelon’ i Abrahama rainy, dia efa novonoin’ ny Filistina sy nototofany tany avokoa.

For all the wells which his father’s servants had dig in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped them, and filled them with earth.

16 Ary hoy Abimeleka tamin’ Isaka: Miala atỳ aminay; fa ianao mahery lavitra noho izahay.

And Abimelech said to Isaac, Go from us; for you are much mightier than we.

17 Ary lasa niala teo Isaka, dia nanorina ny lainy teo an-dohasahan’ i Gerara ka nonina teo.

And Isaac departed there, and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar, and dwelled there.

18 Dia noloaran’ Isaka indray ny lavaka fantsakana izay voahady fony fahavelon’ i Abrahama rainy, fa efa novonoin’ ny Filistina ireny, rehefa maty Abrahama; ary dia nasiany anarana ireny araka ny anarana izay efa nanaovan-drainy azy ihany.

And Isaac dig again the wells of water, which they had dig in the days of Abraham his father; for the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham: and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them.

19 Dia nihady teo amin’ ny lohasaha ny mpanompon’ Isaka ka nahita loharano velona teo.

And Isaac’s servants dig in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.

20 Ary niady tamin’ ny mpiandry ombin’ Isaka ny mpiandry omby tao Gerara ka nanao hoe: Anay ny rano; ary ny anaran’ ny lavaka fantsakana dia nataon’ Isaka hoe Eseka, satria nifanditra taminy izy ireo.

And the herdsmen of Gerar did strive with Isaac’s herdsmen, saying, The water is ours: and he called the name of the well Esek; because they strove with him.

21 Dia nihady lavaka fantsakana hafa koa izy, ka niadiany indray io; ary ny anarany dia nataony hoe Sitna.

And they dig another well, and strove for that also: and he called the name of it Sitnah.

22 Dia nifindra niala teo izy ka nihady lavaka fantsakana hafa koa indray; fa io kosa tsy mba niadiany; koa ny anarany dia nataony hoe Rehobota; fa hoy izy: Efa nomen’ i Jehovah toerana malalaka isika ankehitriny, dia hihamaro eo amin’ ny tany.

And he removed from there, and dig another well; and for that they strove not: and he called the name of it Rehoboth; and he said, For now the LORD has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.

23 Dia niakatra niala teo izy ka nankany Beri-sheba.

And he went up from there to Beersheba.

24 Ary Jehovah niseho taminy tamin’ iny alina iny ka nanao hoe: Izaho no Andriamanitr’ i Abrahama rainao; aza matahotra, fa momba anao Aho ka hitahy anao sy hahamaro ny taranakao noho ny amin’ i Abrahama mpanompoko.

And the LORD appeared to him the same night, and said, I am the God of Abraham your father: fear not, for I am with you, and will bless you, and multiply your seed for my servant Abraham’s sake.

25 Ary nanorina alitara teo izy, dia niantso ny anaran’ i Jehovah sady nanorina ny lainy teo koa; ary nihady lavaka fantsakana teo ny mpanompon’ Isaka.

And he built an altar there, and called on the name of the LORD, and pitched his tent there: and there Isaac’s servants dig a well.

26 Ary Abimeleka mbamin’ i Ahozata sakaizany sy Pikola, komandin’ ny miaramilany, dia niala tao Gerara hankany amin’ Isaka.

Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath one of his friends, and Phichol the chief captain of his army.

27 Fa hoy Isaka taminy: Nahoana ianareo no mankaty amiko, kanefa nankahala ahy ianareo ka nandroaka ahy niala teo aminareo?

And Isaac said to them, Why come you to me, seeing you hate me, and have sent me away from you?

28 Ary hoy izy ireo: Efa hitanay marimarina fa momba anao Jehovah, ka dia hoy izahay: Aoka samy hanao fianianana isika, dia izahay sy ianao, ary aoka izahay hanao fanekena aminao,

And they said, We saw certainly that the LORD was with you: and we said, Let there be now an oath between us, even between us and you, and let us make a covenant with you;

29 fa tsy hanisy ratsy anay ianao, tahaka ny tsy nanendrenay anao akory, sy tahaka ny tsy nanaovanay na inona na inona taminao afa-tsy ny soa ihany, fa efa nampandehaninay soa aman-tsara ianao. Fa ianao ankehitriny efa notahin’ i Jehovah.

That you will do us no hurt, as we have not touched you, and as we have done to you nothing but good, and have sent you away in peace: you are now the blessed of the LORD.

30 Dia nanao fanasana ho azy Isaka, ka dia nihinana sy nisotro izy.

And he made them a feast, and they did eat and drink.

31 Dia nifoha maraina koa izy, ka samy nanao fianianana; dia nampandehanin’ Isaka ireo, ka dia lasa nody soa aman-tsara izy.

And they rose up betimes in the morning, and swore one to another: and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.

32 Ary tamin’ izany andro izany dia avy ny mpanompon’ Isaka ka nanambara taminy ny amin’ ny lavaka fantsakana izay efa nohadiny ka nanao taminy hoe: Efa nahita rano izahay.

And it came to pass the same day, that Isaac’s servants came, and told him concerning the well which they had dig, and said to him, We have found water.

33 Dia nanao ny anarany hoe Sheba izy; izany no nanaovana ny anaran’ ny tanàna hoe Beri-sheba mandraka androany.

And he called it Shebah: therefore the name of the city is Beersheba to this day.

34 Ary rehefa efa-polo taona Esao, dia nampakatra an’ i Jodita, zanakavavin’ i Bery Hetita, sy Basemata, zanakavavin’ i Elona Hetita, izy.

And Esau was forty years old when he took to wife Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite:

35 Dia nangidy tamin’ ny fanahin’ Isaka sy Rebeka indrindra ireny.

Which were a grief of mind to Isaac and to Rebekah.
