Bilowgii 26
1 Waxaa dhulkii ka dhacday abaar, oo aan ahayn tii hore oo waagii Ibraahim dhacday. Markaasaa Isxaaq u kacay xagga Abimeleg oo ahaa boqorkii reer Falastiin xagga Geraar.
There was a famine in the land, besides the first famine that was in the days of Abraham [Father of a multitude]. Isaac [Laughter] went to Abimelech [My father king] king of the Philistines [To roll in dust (As an insult)], to Gerar.
2 Rabbiguna wuu u muuqday isaga, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Xagga Masar ha u dhaadhicin, laakiinse deg dhulka aan kuu sheegi doono.
Adonai appeared to him, and said, “Don’t go down into Egypt [Abode of slavery]. Live in the land I will tell you about.
3 Dhulkan qariib ahaan u deg, oo anna waan kula jiri doonaa, oo waan ku barakayn doonaa; waayo, adiga iyo farcankaaga ayaan dalalkan oo dhan siin doonaa, oo waxaan adkayn doonaa dhaartii aan ugu dhaartay aabbahaa Ibraahim.
Live in this land, and I will be with you, and will bless you. For I will give to you, and to your offspring, all these lands, and I will establish the oath which I swore to Abraham [Father of a multitude] your father.
4 Farcankaagana waxaan u tarmin doonaa sida xiddigaha samada, oo waxaan farcankaaga siin doonaa dalalkan oo dhan, farcankaagayna quruumaha dunida oo dhammu ku barakoobi doonaan;
I will multiply your offspring as the stars of the sky, and will give all these lands to your offspring. By your seed, all the nations of the earth be blessed,
5 maxaa yeelay, Ibraahim baa addeecay codkaygii, wuxuuna dhawray wixii la ii dhawri lahaa, iyo xukummadaydii, iyo amarradaydii, iyo qaynuunnadaydii.
because Abraham [Father of a multitude] sh'ma ·heard obeyed· my voice, and heeded what I told him to do— he followed my mitzvot ·instructions·, my regulations, and my torot ·teachings·.”
6 Isxaaqna wuxuu degganaa Geraar:
Isaac [Laughter] lived in Gerar.
7 oo dadkii meeshaas joogay baa naagtiisii ka warsaday, oo wuxuu yidhi, Iyadu waa walaashay: waayo, wuu ka cabsaday inuu yidhaahdo, Waa naagtaydii, oo wuxuu isyidhi, waaba intaasoo ay dadka meeshanu igu dilaan Rebeqah aawadeed, maxaa yeelay, way suurad quruxsanayd.
The men of the place asked him about his wife. He said, “She is my sister,” for he was afraid to say, “My wife,” lest, he thought, “the men of the place might kill me for Rebekah [Securely bound], because she is beautiful to look at.”
8 Markuu halkaas wakhti dheer joogay ayaa Abimeleg oo ahaa boqorkii reer Falastiin daaqad ka fiiriyey, oo uu arkay Isxaaq oo naagtiisii Rebeqah la qooqaya.
When he had been there a long time, Abimelech [My father king] king of the Philistines [To roll in dust (As an insult)] looked out at a window, and saw, and, behold, Isaac [Laughter] was caressing Rebekah [Securely bound], his wife.
9 Markaasuu Abimeleg Isxaaq u yeedhay, oo yidhi, Hubaal iyadu waa naagtaadii. De sidee baad ku tidhi, Waa walaashay? Isxaaqna wuxuu ku yidhi, Maxaa yeelay, waxaan is-idhi, Waaba intaasoo aad u dhimatid iyada aawadeed.
Abimelech [My father king] called Isaac [Laughter], and said, “Behold, surely she is your wife. Why did you say, ‘She is my sister?’” Isaac [Laughter] said to him, “Because I said, ‘Lest I die because of her.’”
10 Oo Abimelegna wuxuu ku yidhi, War waa maxay waxan aad nagu samaysay? Mid dadka ka mid ahu dhib yaraan buu ula jiifsan lahaa naagtaada, oo kolkaasaad eed noo soo jiidi lahayd.
Abimelech [My father king] said, “What is this you have done to us? One of the people might easily have lain with your wife, and you would have brought guilt on us!”
11 Markaasaa Abimeleg wuxuu dadkii oo dhan ku amray, oo yidhi, Kii ninkan ama naagtiisa taabta hubaal naftaa laga qaadi doonaa.
Abimelech [My father king] enjoined all the people, saying, “He who touches this man or his wife will surely be put to death.”
12 Isxaaqna dhulkaasuu wax ku beertay, isla sannaddiina wuxuu helay boqol laab; Rabbiguna wuu barakeeyey isagii.
Isaac [Laughter] sowed in that land, and reaped in the same year one hundred times what he planted. Adonai blessed him.
13 Ninkiina wuu weynaaday, oo hor u maray, ilaa uu noqday nin aad u weyn,
The man grew great, and grew more and more until he became very great.
14 wuxuuna lahaa adhi iyo lo', iyo addoommo fara badan; markaasay reer Falastiin ka masayreen.
He had possessions of flocks, possessions of herds, and a great household. The Philistines [To roll in dust (As an insult)] envied him.
15 Ceelashii addoommada aabbihiis qodeen oo dhan waagii aabbihiis Ibraahim noolaa ayay reer Falastiin hore u awdeen oo ciid uga buuxiyeen.
Now all the wells which his father’s servants had dug in the days of Abraham [Father of a multitude] his father, the Philistines [To roll in dust (As an insult)] had stopped, and filled with earth.
16 Abimelegna wuxuu Isxaaq ku yidhi, Naga tag; waayo, aad baad nooga xoog badan tahay.
Abimelech [My father king] said to Isaac [Laughter], “Go from us, for you are much mightier than we.”
17 Markaasaa Isxaaq halkaas ka tegey, oo dooxadii Geraar degay, halkaasuuna joogay.
Isaac [Laughter] departed from there, encamped in the valley of Gerar, and lived there.
18 Kolkaasaa Isxaaq mar kale qoday ceelashii biyaha oo ay qodeen waagii aabbihiis Ibraahim noolaa, waayo, reer Falastiin baa awday markii Ibraahim dhintay ka dib, oo wuxuu magacyadoodii u bixiyey magacyadii aabbihiis Ibraahim u bixiyey.
Isaac [Laughter] dug again the wells of water, which they had dug in the days of Abraham [Father of a multitude] his father. For the Philistines [To roll in dust (As an insult)] had stopped them after the death of Abraham [Father of a multitude]. He called their names after the names by which his father had called them.
19 Markaasaa addoommadii Isxaaq dooxadii qodeen, oo waxay ka heleen ceel durdur ah.
Isaac [Laughter]’s servants dug in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.
20 Markaasaa xoolojirradii reer Geraar la dirireen xoolojirradii Isxaaq, iyagoo leh, Biyaha annagaa leh. Ceelka magiciisiina wuxuu u bixiyey Ceseq, maxaa yeelay, way la dirireen isagii.
The herdsmen of Gerar argued with Isaac [Laughter]’s herdsmen, saying, “The water is ours.” He called the name of the well Esek, because they contended with him.
21 Ceel kalena way qodeen, oo kaasna way kula dirireen, markaasuu magiciisii u bixiyey Sitnah.
They dug another well, and they argued over that, also. He called its name Sitnah.
22 Kolkaasuu meeshaas ka guuray, oo wuxuu qoday ceel kale; kaasna kulama ay diririn; magiciisiina wuxuu u bixiyey Rexobod, oo wuxuu yidhi, Haatan Rabbigu meel buu noo banneeyey, oo dalka waannu ku badnaynaa.
He left that place, and dug another well. They didn’t argue over that one. He called it Rehoboth. He said, “For now Adonai has made room for us, and we will be fruitful in the land.”
23 Markaasuu halkaas ka tegey, oo wuxuu u kacay Bi'ir Shebac.
He went up from there to Be'er-Sheva [Well of Seven, Well of an Oath].
24 Oo isla habeenkaas ayaa Rabbigu u muuqday isagii oo ku yidhi, Waxaan ahay aabbahaa Ibraahim Ilaahiisa. Ha cabsan, waayo, waan kula jiraa, oo waan ku barakayn doonaa, farcankaagana waan tarmin doonaa addoonkaygii Ibraahim aawadiis.
Adonai appeared to him the same night, and said, “I am the God of Abraham [Father of a multitude] your father. Don’t be afraid, for I am with you, and will bless you, and multiply your offspring for my servant Abraham [Father of a multitude]’s sake.”
25 Kolkaasuu halkaas ka dhisay meel allabari, oo magaca Rabbiga ku baryootamay, halkaas buuna teendhadiisii ka dhisay, markaasaa addoommadii Isxaaq halkaas ceel ka qodeen.
He built an altar there, and called on Adonai’s name, and pitched his tent there. There Isaac [Laughter]’s servants dug a well.
26 Dabadeedna Abimeleg iyo saaxiibkiis Axusad, iyo Fiikol oo ahaa madaxda ciidankiisa ayaa Geraar ka tegey oo Isxaaq u kacay.
Then Abimelech [My father king] went to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath his friend, and Phicol the captain of his army.
27 Markaasaa Isxaaq ku yidhi, Maxaad iigu timaadeen, waabad i neceb tihiine, oo aad iska kay erideene?
Isaac [Laughter] said to them, “Why have you come to me, since you hate me, and have sent me away from you?”
28 Oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Caddaan baannu u aragnay in Rabbigu kula jiro; oo waxaannu nidhi, Annaga iyo adiga dhaaru ha inoo dhexayso oo aynu axdi dhiganno,
They said, “We saw plainly that Adonai was with you. We said, ‘Let there now be an oath between us, even between us and you, and let us make a covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties· with you,
29 inaadan wax na yeelayn, sidii annana aannan kuu taaban, oo aannan waxba kuugu samayn wanaag mooyaane, oo aannu nabad kuugu dirnay. Adigu hadda waxaad tahay kan Rabbigu barakeeyey.
that you will do us no harm, 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 Adonai.”
30 Diyaafad buuna u sameeyey, wayna cuneen oo cabbeen.
He made them a feast, and they ate and drank.
31 Kolkaasay aroor hore kaceen, oo isu dhaardhaarteen: markaasaa Isxaaq iska diray, iyana nabad bay kaga ambabbaxeen.
They rose up some time in the morning, and swore to one another. Isaac [Laughter] sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.
32 Oo isla maalintaas ayay addoommadii Isxaaq yimaadeen, oo ay uga warrameen ceelkii ay qodeen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Biyaannu helnay.
The same day, Isaac [Laughter]’s servants came, and told him concerning the well which they had dug, and said to him, “We have found water.”
33 Markaasuu u bixiyey Shebcaah; sidaas daraaddeed magaaladaas magaceeda waxaa ilaa maantadan la yidhaahdaa Bi'ir Shebac.
He called it Shibah. Therefore the name of the city is Be'er-Sheva [Well of Seven, Well of an Oath] to this day.
34 Ceesaw markuu afartan sannadood jiray ayuu guursaday Yuhuudiid ina Be'eerii kii reer Xeed, iyo Basmad ina Eeloon kii reer Xeed.
When Esau [Hairy] was forty years old, he took as wife Judith, the daughter of Beeri the Hittite [Descendant of Trembling fear], and Basemath, the daughter of Elon the Hittite [Descendant of Trembling fear].
35 Kuwaasuna Isxaaq iyo Rebeqah ayay caloolxumo geliyeen.
They grieved Isaac [Laughter]’s and Rebekah [Securely bound]’s spirits.
