Genesis 21

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	LXX
1 Then the Lord visited Sarah, just as he had promised; and he fulfilled what he had spoken.	1 και κυριος επεσκεψατο την σαρραν καθα ειπεν και εποιησεν κυριος τη σαρρα καθα ελαλησεν
2 And she conceived and gave birth to a son in her old age, at the time that God had foretold to her.	2 και συλλαβουσα ετεκεν σαρρα τω αβρααμ υιον εις το γηρας εις τον καιρον καθα ελαλησεν αυτω κυριος
3 And Abraham called the name of his son, whom Sarah bore for him, Isaac.	3 και εκαλεσεν αβρααμ το ονομα του υιου αυτου του γενομενου αυτω ον ετεκεν αυτω σαρρα ισαακ
4 And he circumcised him on the eighth day, just as God had instructed him,	4 περιετεμεν δε αβρααμ τον ισαακ τη ογδοη ημερα καθα ενετειλατο αυτω ο θεος
5 when he was one hundred years old. Indeed, at this stage of his father’s life, Isaac was born.	5 αβρααμ δε ην εκατον ετων ηνικα εγενετο αυτω ισαακ ο υιος αυτου
6 And Sarah said: “God has brought laughter to me. Whoever will hear of it will laugh with me.”	6 ειπεν δε σαρρα γελωτα μοι εποιησεν κυριος ος γαρ αν ακουση συγχαρειται μοι
7 And again, she said: “Hearing this, who would believe Abraham, that Sarah breast-fed a son, to whom she gave birth, despite being elderly?”	7 και ειπεν τις αναγγελει τω αβρααμ οτι θηλαζει παιδιον σαρρα οτι ετεκον υιον εν τω γηρει μου
8 And the boy grew and was weaned. And Abraham made a great feast on the day of his weaning.	8 και ηυξηθη το παιδιον και απεγαλακτισθη και εποιησεν αβρααμ δοχην μεγαλην η ημερα απεγαλακτισθη ισαακ ο υιος αυτου
9 And when Sarah had seen the son of Hagar the Egyptian playing with her son Isaac, she said to Abraham:	9 ιδουσα δε σαρρα τον υιον αγαρ της αιγυπτιας ος εγενετο τω αβρααμ παιζοντα μετα ισαακ του υιου αυτης
10 “Cast out this woman servant and her son. For the son of a woman servant will not be heir with my son Isaac.”	10 και ειπεν τω αβρααμ εκβαλε την παιδισκην ταυτην και τον υιον αυτης ου γαρ κληρονομησει ο υιος της παιδισκης ταυτης μετα του υιου μου ισαακ
11 Abraham took this grievously, for the sake of his son.	11 σκληρον δε εφανη το ρημα σφοδρα εναντιον αβρααμ περι του υιου αυτου
12 And God said to him: “Let it not seem harsh to you concerning the boy and your woman servant. In all that Sarah has said to you, listen to her voice. For your offspring will be invoked in Isaac.	12 ειπεν δε ο θεος τω αβρααμ μη σκληρον εστω το ρημα εναντιον σου περι του παιδιου και περι της παιδισκης παντα οσα εαν ειπη σοι σαρρα ακουε της φωνης αυτης οτι εν ισαακ κληθησεται σοι σπερμα
13 Yet I will also make the son of the woman servant into a great nation, for he is your offspring.”	13 και τον υιον δε της παιδισκης ταυτης εις εθνος μεγα ποιησω αυτον οτι σπερμα σον εστιν
14 And so Abraham arose in the morning, and taking bread and a skin of water, he placed it upon her shoulder, and he handed over the boy, and he released her. And when she had departed, she wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.	14 ανεστη δε αβρααμ το πρωι και ελαβεν αρτους και ασκον υδατος και εδωκεν αγαρ και επεθηκεν επι τον ωμον και το παιδιον και απεστειλεν αυτην απελθουσα δε επλανατο την ερημον κατα το φρεαρ του ορκου
15 And when the water in the skin had been consumed, she set aside the boy, under one of the trees that were there.	15 εξελιπεν δε το υδωρ εκ του ασκου και ερριψεν το παιδιον υποκατω μιας ελατης
16 And she moved away and sat in a distant area, as far as a bow can reach. For she said, “I shall not see the boy die.” And so, sitting opposite her, he lifted up his voice and wept.	16 απελθουσα δε εκαθητο απεναντι αυτου μακροθεν ωσει τοξου βολην ειπεν γαρ ου μη ιδω τον θανατον του παιδιου μου και εκαθισεν απεναντι αυτου αναβοησαν δε το παιδιον εκλαυσεν
17 But God heard the voice of the boy. And an Angel of God called to Hagar from heaven, saying: “What are you doing, Hagar? Do not be afraid. For God has heeded the voice of the boy, from the place where he is.	17 εισηκουσεν δε ο θεος της φωνης του παιδιου εκ του τοπου ου ην και εκαλεσεν αγγελος του θεου την αγαρ εκ του ουρανου και ειπεν αυτη τι εστιν αγαρ μη φοβου επακηκοεν γαρ ο θεος της φωνης του παιδιου σου εκ του τοπου ου εστιν
18 Rise up. Take the boy and hold him by the hand. For I will make of him a great nation.”	18 αναστηθι λαβε το παιδιον και κρατησον τη χειρι σου αυτο εις γαρ εθνος μεγα ποιησω αυτον
19 And God opened her eyes. And seeing a well of water, she went and filled the skin, and she gave the boy to drink.	19 και ανεωξεν ο θεος τους οφθαλμους αυτης και ειδεν φρεαρ υδατος ζωντος και επορευθη και επλησεν τον ασκον υδατος και εποτισεν το παιδιον
20 And God was with him. And he grew, and he stayed in the wilderness, and he became a young man, an archer.	20 και ην ο θεος μετα του παιδιου και ηυξηθη και κατωκησεν εν τη ερημω εγενετο δε τοξοτης
21 And he lived in the desert of Paran, and his mother took a wife for him from the land of Egypt.	21 και κατωκησεν εν τη ερημω τη φαραν και ελαβεν αυτω η μητηρ γυναικα εκ γης αιγυπτου
22 At the same time, Abimelech and Phicol, the leader of his army, said to Abraham: “God is with you in everything that you do.	22 εγενετο δε εν τω καιρω εκεινω και ειπεν αβιμελεχ και οχοζαθ ο νυμφαγωγος αυτου και φικολ ο αρχιστρατηγος της δυναμεως αυτου προς αβρααμ λεγων ο θεος μετα σου εν πασιν οις εαν ποιης
23 Therefore, swear by God that you will do no harm to me, and to my posterity, and to my stock. But according to the mercy that I have done to you, you will do to me and to the land, to which you have turned as a newcomer.”	23 νυν ουν ομοσον μοι τον θεον μη αδικησειν με μηδε το σπερμα μου μηδε το ονομα μου αλλα κατα την δικαιοσυνην ην εποιησα μετα σου ποιησεις μετ' εμου και τη γη η συ παρωκησας εν αυτη
24 And Abraham said, “I will swear.”	24 και ειπεν αβρααμ εγω ομουμαι
25 And he reproved Abimelech because of a well of water, which his servants had taken away by force.	25 και ηλεγξεν αβρααμ τον αβιμελεχ περι των φρεατων του υδατος ων αφειλαντο οι παιδες του αβιμελεχ
26 And Abimelech responded, “I do not know who did this thing, but you also did not reveal it to me, nor have I heard of it, before today.”	26 και ειπεν αυτω αβιμελεχ ουκ εγνων τις εποιησεν το πραγμα τουτο ουδε συ μοι απηγγειλας ουδε εγω ηκουσα αλλ' η σημερον
27 And so Abraham took sheep and oxen, and he gave them to Abimelech. And both of them struck a pact.	27 και ελαβεν αβρααμ προβατα και μοσχους και εδωκεν τω αβιμελεχ και διεθεντο αμφοτεροι διαθηκην
28 And Abraham set aside seven female lambs from the flock.	28 και εστησεν αβρααμ επτα αμναδας προβατων μονας
29 Abimelech said to him, “What purpose have these seven female lambs, which you have caused to stand separately?”	29 και ειπεν αβιμελεχ τω αβρααμ τι εισιν αι επτα αμναδες των προβατων τουτων ας εστησας μονας
30 But he said, “You will receive seven female lambs from my hand, so that they may be a testimony for me, that I dug this well.”	30 και ειπεν αβρααμ οτι τας επτα αμναδας ταυτας λημψη παρ' εμου ινα ωσιν μοι εις μαρτυριον οτι εγω ωρυξα το φρεαρ τουτο
31 For this reason, that place was called Beersheba, because there both of them did swear.	31 δια τουτο επωνομασεν το ονομα του τοπου εκεινου φρεαρ ορκισμου οτι εκει ωμοσαν αμφοτεροι
32 And they initiated a pact on behalf of the well of oath.	32 και διεθεντο διαθηκην εν τω φρεατι του ορκου ανεστη δε αβιμελεχ και οχοζαθ ο νυμφαγωγος αυτου και φικολ ο αρχιστρατηγος της δυναμεως αυτου και επεστρεψαν εις την γην των φυλιστιιμ
33 Then Abimelech and Phicol, the leader of his army, rose up, and they returned to the land of the Palestinians. In truth, Abraham planted a grove in Beersheba, and there he called upon the name of the Lord God Eternal.	33 και εφυτευσεν αβρααμ αρουραν επι τω φρεατι του ορκου και επεκαλεσατο εκει το ονομα κυριου θεος αιωνιος
34 And he was a settler in the land of the Palestinians for many days.	34 παρωκησεν δε αβρααμ εν τη γη των φυλιστιιμ ημερας πολλας
