2 Ɛhɔ na Awurade yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ Isak, ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Nkɔ Misraim, na mmom, tena asase a mɛkyerɛ wo no so.
The the LORde apeared vnto him and sayde goo not doune in to Egipte but byde in ye land which I saye vnto ye:
3 Tena asase yi so kakra, efisɛ mede saa asase no nyinaa bɛma wo ne wʼasefo, na mede asi bɔ a mehyɛɛ wʼagya Abraham no so dua.

4 Mɛma wʼasefo adɔɔso te sɛ nsoromma a ɛwɔ soro, na mede saa nsase yi nyinaa ama wɔn. Ɛnam wʼasefo so na wobehyira wiase aman ahorow nyinaa.
and will multiplye thy seed as ye starres of heave and will geue vnto thy seed all these contreis. And thorow thy seed shall all the natios of the erth be blessed
5 Efisɛ Abraham tiee me nne, dii me nsɛm, mʼahyɛde ne me mmara nyinaa so.”
because yt Abraha harkened vnto mi voyce and kepte mine ordinauces comaudmetes statutes and lawes
6 Enti Isak tenaa Gerar.
And Isaac dwelled in Gerar.
7 Bere a Gerar mmarima bisaa Isak yere Rebeka ho asɛm no, ɔkae se, “Ɔyɛ me nuabea.” Efisɛ na osuro sɛ ɔbɛka se, “Ɔyɛ me yere.” Ɔkaa saa asɛm yi, efisɛ na osusuw sɛ, esiane ne yere Rebeka ahoɔfɛ nti, anhwɛ a na kurom hɔ mmarima akum no.
And yt me of the place asked hi of his wife and he sayde yt she was his sister: for he feared to calle her his wife lest the me of the place shulde haue kylled hym for hir sake because she was bewtyfull to ye eye.
8 Isak tenaa hɔ kyɛɛ kakra no, da bi, Filistifo hene Abimelek gyina ne mfɛnsere mu na ohuu sɛ Isak regoru ne yere Rebeka ho.
And it happened after he had bene there longe tyme yt Abimelech kinge of ye Philistias loked out at a wyndow and sawe Isaac sportinge with Rebecca his wife.
9 Ɛno nti, Abimelek soma ma wɔkɔfrɛɛ Isak. Isak bae no, obisaa no se, “Ɔbea no yɛ wo yere ankasa. Adɛn nti na woka se, ‘Ɔyɛ me nuabea?’” Isak buaa no se, “Misusuwii sɛ, sɛ meka se ɔyɛ me yere a, ne nti, ebia na wɔakum me.”
And Abimelech sende for Isaac and sayde: se she is of a suertie thi wife and why saydest thou yt she was thi sister? And Isaac saide vnto hi: I thoughte yt I mighte peradventure haue dyed for hir sake.
10 Na ɔhene Abimelek kae se, “Dɛn asɛm na wo ne yɛn adi yi? Nokware a woamma anna adi nti, anka obi betumi afa wo yere no, na wode mmusu aba yɛn so.”

11 Ɛno nti, Abimelek bɔɔ ne manfo no kɔkɔ se, “Obiara a ɔde ne nsa bɛka saa ɔbarima yi, anaa ne yere no, ɔkwan biara so no wobekum no.”
Tha Abimelech charged all his people saynge: he yt toucheth this man or his wife shall surely dye for it.
12 Saa afe no ara Isak dɔw afuw. Na Awurade hyiraa nʼadwumade so. Ne nnɔbae baa bebree.
And Isaac sowed in yt lade and founde in ye same yere an hudred bushels: for ye LORde blessed hi

and the man waxed mightye and wet forth and grewe till he was exceadinge great

yt he had possessio of shepe of oxe and a myghtie housholde: so yt the Philestians had envy at him:
15 abura ahorow a nʼagya Abraham maa ne nkoa tutuu wɔ ne bere so no nyinaa ano.
In so moch yt they stopped and fylled vp with erth all the welles which his fathers servauntes dygged in his father Abrahams tyme.
16 Ɛbaa saa no, ɔhene Abimelek ka kyerɛɛ Isak se, “Tu fi yɛn asase so, efisɛ wʼahonya dodow no aka yɛn ahyɛ.”
Than sayde Abimelech vnto Isaac: gett the fro me for thou art myhhtier then we a greate deale.
17 Isak tu fii Gerar kurow no mu, kɔɔ Gerar subon mu de hɔ kɔyɛɛ nʼatenae.
Than Isaac departed thense and pitched his tente in the valey Gerar and dwelt there,
18 Enti Isak maa ne nkoa san tutuu mmura a nʼagya Abraham maa ne nkoa tutuu na ne wu akyi no Filistifo no sisiw ne nyinaa no. Ɔsan de din koro no ara a nʼagya Abraham de totoo mmura no totoo no bio.
And Isaac digged agayne the welles of water which they dygged in the dayes of Abraha his father which the Philestias had stoppe after ye deth of Abraha and gaue the the same names which hys father gaue the.
19 Isak nkoa no tuu abura foforo bi wɔ Gerar subon no mu, kɔtoo nsu a ɛyɛ kurunnyenn.
As Isaacs seruautes dygged in the valey they founde a well of springynge water.
20 Nanso Gerar nguanhwɛfo ne Isak nguanhwɛfo gyee abura no ho akyinnye. Gerar nguanhwɛfo no kae se, “Abura yi yɛ yɛn de.” Eyi maa Isak too saa abura no din Esek, a ase kyerɛ akyinnyegye abura.
And the herdme of Gerar dyd stryue with Isaacs herdme saynge: the water is oures Than called he the well Eseck because they stroue with hym.
21 Isak nkoa no san tuu abura foforo, nanso Gerar nguanhwɛfo no san ne wɔn kasakasaa ɛno nso so. Eyi maa Isak san too saa abura no nso din Sitna, a ase kyerɛ Aperedi.
Than dygged they another well and they stroue for yt also. Therfore called he it Sitena.
22 Isak gyaw saa abura no hɔ kotuu abura foforo. Afei, nnipa a wɔne no te hɔ no gyaee no haw a obiara ne no ankasa so bio. Eyi maa Isak too saa abura yi din Rehobot a ase ne “Afei de Awurade abɔ yɛn atenase na yebenya yɛn ho wɔ asase yi so.”
And than he departed these and dygged a nother well for the which they stroue not: therfore called he it Rehoboth saige: ye LORde hath now made vs rowme and we are encreased vpo the erth.
23 Isak tu fii hɔ kɔɔ Beer-Seba.

And the LORde apered vnto hi the same nyghte and sayde. I am the God of Abraha thy father feare not for I am with the and will blesse the and multiplye thy sede for my seruaute Abrahams sake.
25 Isak sii afɔremuka, som Awurade wɔ hɔ. Osii ntamadan tenaa hɔ, na ne nkoa nso tuu abura maa no.
And than he buylded an aulter there and called vpo the name of the LORde and there pitched his tente. And there Isaacs servauntes dygged a well.
26 Da bi, ɔhene Abimelek ne ne fotufo Ahusad ne ne sahene Pikol fi Gerar bɛsraa Isak.
Than came Abimelech to him fro Gerar and Ahusath his frende and Phicol his chefe captayne.
27 Isak bisaa wɔn se, “Adɛn nti na mo a na mo ne me nka, na mopam me fii mo nkyɛn aba me ha nnɛ sɛ morebɛsra me?”
And Isaac sayde vnto the: wherfore come ye to me seige ye hate me and haue put me awaye fro you?
28 Wobuaa no se, “Yehu pefee sɛ Awurade wɔ wʼafa nti, yɛasi gyinae sɛ, yɛne wo bɛyɛ apam. Apam no bɛda wo ne yɛn ntam. Pene so, na yɛne wo nyɛ saa apam no
Than sayde they: we sawe that the LORde was with the and therfore we sayde that there shulde be an oothe betwixte vs ad the and that we wolde make a bonde with the:
29 sɛ worenhaw yɛn, sɛnea yɛn nso, yɛanhaw wo no. Yɛne wo tenaa yiye. Yegyaa wo kwan asomdwoe mu. Na afei, hwɛ sɛnea Awurade ahyira wo.”
yt thou shuldeste do vs no hurte as we haue not touched the and haue done vnto the nothinge but good and sed the awaye in peace: for thou art now the blessed of the LORde.
30 Isak too wɔn pon, na wodidi nomee de twɛn apam a wɔne no rebɛyɛ no.
And he made the a feast and they ate ad droke.
31 Ade kyee anɔpa no, Isak ne mmarima no kekaa wɔn ho wɔn ho ntam, de sii wɔn apam a wɔayɛ no so dua. Na Isak gyaa wɔn kwan ma wɔkɔɔ asomdwoe mu.
And they rose vp by tymes in the mornynge and sware one to another. And Isaac sent the awaye. And they departed from him in peace.
32 Da no ara, Isak asomfo bɛkaa abura a na wɔretu no ho asɛm kyerɛɛ no se, “Yɛato nsu.”
And ye same daye came Isaacs servautes and tolde hi of a well which they had dygged: and sayde vnto hi that thei had founde water.
