< Genesis 26 >
1 At nagkagutom sa lupain, bukod sa unang pagkakagutom na nangyari ng mga araw ni Abraham. At naparoon si Isaac kay Abimelech, na hari ng mga Filisteo sa Gerar.
And there came to be a famine in the land, besides the first famine which happened in the days of Abraham, —so Isaac went his way unto Abimelech, king of the Philistines towards Gerar;
2 At napakita ang Panginoon sa kaniya, at nagsabi, Huwag kang bumaba sa Egipto; matira ka sa lupaing aking sasabihin sa iyo:
and Yahweh appeared unto him, and said, do not go down towards Egypt, —Make thy habitation in the land, which I may name unto thee:
3 Matira ka sa lupaing ito, at ako'y sasa iyo, at ikaw ay aking pagpapalain; sapagka't sa iyo at sa iyong binhi ay ibibigay ko ang lahat ng lupaing ito, at pagtitibayin ko ang sumpang aking isinumpa kay Abraham na iyong ama;
Sojourn in this land, that I may be with thee and bless thee, —for, to thee, and to thy seed, will I give all these lands, So will I establish the oath which I sware to Abraham thy father;
4 At aking pararamihin ang iyong binhi na gaya ng mga bituin sa langit, at ibibigay ko sa iyong binhi ang lahat ng lupaing ito: at pagpapalain sa iyong binhi ang lahat ng bansa sa lupa;
and will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heavens, and will give to thy seed, all these lands, —And all the nations of the earth shall bless themselves in thy seed:
5 Sapagka't sinunod ni Abraham ang aking tinig, at ginanap ang aking bilin, ang aking mga utos, ang aking mga palatuntunan at ang aking mga kautusan.
Because that Abraham hearkened unto my voice, —and so kept my charge, my commandments my statutes and my laws.
6 At tumahan si Isaac sa Gerar.
So Isaac dwelt in Gerar.
7 At tinanong siya ng mga taong tagaroon tungkol sa kaniyang asawa; at sinabi niya, Siya'y aking kapatid; sapagka't natakot na sabihin, Siya'y aking asawa: baka ako'y patayin, aniya, ng mga taong tagarito, dahil kay Rebeca; dahil sa siya'y may magandang anyo.
Then asked the men of the place as to his wife, and he said, My sister, is she, —For he feared to say My wife, lest [said he] the men of the place should slay me on account of Rebekah, for fair to look on, she is.
8 At nangyari nang siya'y naroong mahabang panahon, na dumungaw si Abimelech, na hari ng mga Filisteo sa isang durungawan, at tumingin, at narito't si Isaac ay nakikipaglaro kay Rebeca na kaniyang asawa.
And it came to pass when the days had lengthened out to him there, that Abimelech king of the Philistines, looked out through the lattice of a window, —and he beheld and lo! Isaac—laughing with Rebekah his wife.
9 At tinawag ni Abimelech si Isaac, at sa kaniya'y sinabi, Narito, tunay na siya'y iyong asawa: at bakit sinabi mo, Siya'y aking kapatid? At sumagot sa kaniya si Isaac, Sapagka't sinabi ko, Baka ako'y mamatay dahil sa kaniya.
So Abimelech called for Isaac, and said, But lo she is, thy wife! How then, saidst thou, She is, my sister? And Isaac said unto him, Because, I said, Lest I die on her account.
10 At sinabi ni Abimelech, Ano itong ginawa mo sa amin? hindi malayong ang sinoman sa bayan ay nakasiping sa iyong asawa, at sa gayon ay pinapagkasala mo kami.
Then, said, Abimelech, What is this thou hast done to us? A little more, and one of the people might have lien with thy wife, so shouldst thou have brought upon us, guilt.
11 At ibinilin ni Abimelech sa buong bayan, na sinabi, Ang gumalaw sa lalaking ito o sa kaniyang asawa ay tunay na papatayin.
And Abimelech commanded all the people saying, —He that toucheth this man or his wife, shall surely be put to death
12 At si Isaac ay naghasik sa lupaing yaon, at umani siya ng taong yaon, ng tigisang daan at pinagpala siya ng Panginoon.
And Isaac sowed in that land, and found in the same year, a hundredfold, —seeing that Yahweh had blessed him.
13 At naging dakila ang lalake at lalo't lalong naging dakila hanggang sa naging totoong dakila.
So the man waxed great, —and went on and on waxing great until that he had waxed exceeding great.
14 At siya'y may tinatangkilik na mga kawan, at mga tinatangkilik na mga bakahan, at malaking sangbahayan: at kinainggitan siya ng mga Filisteo.
So he came to have possessions of flocks and possessions of herds, and a large body of servants, —and the Philistines envied him.
15 Lahat ng mga balon ngang hinukay ng mga bataan ng kaniyang ama, nang mga kaarawan ni Abraham na kaniyang ama, ay pinagtabunan ng mga Filisteo, na mga pinuno ng lupa.
And as for all the wells which the servants of his father digged, in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines stopped them up, and filled them with dust.
16 At sinabi ni Abimelech kay Isaac; Humiwalay ka sa amin, sapagka't ikaw ay makapupong matibay kay sa amin.
And Abimelech said unto Isaac, —Get thee from us, for thou hast become far mightier than we.
17 At umalis si Isaac doon, at humantong sa libis ng Gerar, at tumahan doon.
So Isaac went from thence, —and encamped in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.
18 At muling hinukay ni Isaac ang mga balon ng tubig na kanilang hinukay nang mga kaarawan ni Abraham na kaniyang ama; sapagka't pinagtabunan ng mga Filisteo, pagkamatay ni Abraham: at kaniyang mga pinanganlan ng ayon sa mga pangalang inilagay ng kaniyang ama.
And Isaac again digged the wells of water which they had digged in the days of Abraham his father, and which the Philistines stopped up after the death of Abraham, —and he called their names, after the names which his father called them.
19 At humukay sa libis ang mga bataan ni Isaac, at nangakasumpong doon ng isang balon ng tubig na bumubukal.
And Isaac’s servants digged in the valley, —and found there a well of living water.
20 At nakipagtalo ang mga pastor ni Gerar sa mga pastor ni Isaac, na sinasabi, Amin ang tubig; at kaniyang tinawag ang pangalan ng balon, na Esec; sapagka't ipinakipagkaalit sa kaniya.
And the herdmen of Gerar disputed with the herdmen of Isaac saying, Ours, is the, water! So he called the name of the well Esek, because they had stirred up a quarrel with him.
21 At sila'y humukay ng ibang balon; at kanilang pinagtalunan din: at kaniyang tinawag ang pangalan na Sitnah.
And they digged another well, and they disputed over that also, —so he called the name thereof Sitnah.
22 At bumunot siya roon, at humukay ng ibang balon; at hindi nila pinagtalunan: at kaniyang tinawag ang pangalan na Rehoboth; at kaniyang sinabi, Sapagka't ngayo'y binigyan tayo ng Panginoon ng kaluwagan, at lalago tayo sa lupain.
And he moved on from thence and digged another well, and they disputed not for it, —so he called the name thereof. Rehoboth, and said, For, now, hath Yahweh made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.
23 At mula roon ay umahon siya sa Beerseba.
And he went up from thence, to Beer-sheba.
24 At napakita sa kaniya ang Panginoon ng gabi ring yaon, at nagsabi, Ako ang Dios ni Abraham na iyong ama: huwag kang matakot, sapagka't ako'y sumasaiyo, at ikaw ay aking pagpapalain, at aking pararamihin ang iyong binhi, alangalang kay Abraham na aking lingkod.
And Yahweh appeared unto him the same night, and said, I, am the God of Abraham thy father, —Do not fear for with thee, am, I, And I will bless thee and multiply thy seed, For the sake of Abraham my servant.
25 At si Isaac ay nagtayo roon ng isang dambana, at kaniyang sinambitla ang pangalan ng Panginoon, at itinindig niya roon ang kaniyang tolda: at humukay roon ang mga bataan ni Isaac ng isang balon.
So he builded there all altar and called on the name of Yahweh, and spread out there, his tent, —and the servants of Isaac cut out there a well.
26 Nang magkagayo'y si Abimelech ay naparoon sa kaniya mula sa Gerar, at si Ahuzath na kaniyang kaibigan, at si Phicol na kapitan ng kaniyang hukbo.
And, Abimelech, came unto him from Gerar, with Ahuzzath his friend, and Phicol, commander of his host.
27 At sinabi sa kanila ni Isaac, Bakit kayo naparirito sa akin, dangang kayo'y nangapopoot sa akin at pinalayas ninyo ako sa inyo?
And Isaac said unto them, Wherefore have ye come in mite me, seeing that, ye, hated me, and sent me away from you?
28 At sinabi nila, Malinaw na aming nakita, na ang Panginoon ay sumasaiyo: at aming sinabi, Magkaroon ng pagsusumpaan tayo, kami at ikaw at makipagtipan kami sa iyo:
And they said: We, saw plainly, that Yahweh was with thee, so we said, Let there be we pray thee an oath betwixt us both, betwixt us and thee, —and let us solemnise a covenant with thee: —
29 Na hindi ka gagawa sa amin ng masama, gaya naman namin na hindi ka namin ginalaw, at wala kaming ginawa sa iyong di mabuti, at pinayaon ka naming payapa: ikaw ngayon ang pinagpala ng Panginoon.
That, thou wilt not do wrong by us, according as we touched not thee, and according as we did by thee nothing but good, and then sent thee away in peace, thee who, now, art blessed of Yahweh!
30 At pinaghandaan niya sila, at sila'y nagkainan at naginuman.
So he made for them a banquet, and they did eat and drink, —
31 At sila'y gumising ng madaling araw, at sila'y nagpanumpaan: at sila'y pinagpaalam ni Isaac, at nagsialis na payapa sa kaniya.
and rose up early in the morning, and took an oath each man to his brother, so Isaac let them go, and they departed from him in peace.
32 At nangyari, nang araw ding yaon, na nagsidating ang mga bataan ni Isaac, at siya'y binalitaan tungkol sa balon nilang hinukay, at sinabi sa kaniya, Nakasumpong kami ng tubig.
And it came to pass, on the same day, that the servants of Isaac came in, and told him concerning the well which they had digged, and said to him, We have found water!
33 At tinawag niyang Seba: kaya't ang pangalan ng bayang yaon ay Beerseba hanggang ngayon.
So he called it, Shibah. For this cause, hath the name of the city, been Beer-sheba, unto this day.
34 At nang si Esau ay may apat na pung taon ay nagasawa kay Judit, na anak ni Beeri na Heteo, at kay Basemat na anak ni Elon na Heteo:
And when Esau was forty years old, he took to wife Judith, daughter of Beeri. the Hittite; and Basemath, daughter of Elon, the Hittite;
35 At sila'y nakasama ng loob kay Isaac at kay Rebeca.
and they became a bitterness of spirit, to Isaac and to Rebekah.
