Genesi (تكوين) 12

SMITH VAN DYKE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 وقال الرب لابرام اذهب من ارضك ومن عشيرتك ومن بيت ابيك الى الارض التي اريك.	1 And the Lord said to Abram: Go forth out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and out of they father's house, and come into the land which I shall shew thee.
2 فاجعلك امة عظيمة واباركك واعظم اسمك وتكون بركة.	2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and magnify thy name, and thou shalt be blessed.
3 وابارك مباركيك ولاعنك العنه. وتتبارك فيك جميع قبائل الارض.	3 I will bless them that bless thee, and curse them that curse thee, and IN THEE shall all the kindred of the earth be blessed:
4 فذهب ابرام كما قال له الرب وذهب معه لوط. وكان ابرام ابن خمس وسبعين سنة لما خرج من حاران.	4 So Abram went out as the Lord had commanded him, and Lot went with him: Abram was seventy-five years old when he went forth from Haran.
5 فاخذ ابرام ساراي امرأته ولوطا ابن اخيه وكل مقتنياتهما التي اقتنيا والنفوس التي امتلكا في حاران. وخرجوا ليذهبوا الى ارض كنعان. فأتوا الى ارض كنعان	5 And he took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all the substance which they had gathered, and the souls which they had gotten in Haran: and they went out to go into the land of Chanaan. And when they were come into it,
6 واجتاز ابرام في الارض الى مكان شكيم الى بلّوطة مورة. وكان الكنعانيون حينئذ في الارض.	6 Abram passed through the country into the place of Sichem, as far as the noble vale: now the Chanaanite was at that time in the land.
7 وظهر الرب لابرام وقال لنسلك اعطي هذه الارض. فبنى هناك مذبحا للرب الذي ظهر له.	7 And the Lord appeared to Abram, and said to him: To thy seed will I give this land. And he built there an altar to the Lord, who had appeared to him.
8 ثم نقل من هناك الى الجبل شرقي بيت ايل ونصب خيمته. وله بيت ايل من المغرب وعاي من المشرق. فبنى هناك مذبحا للرب ودعا باسم الرب.	8 And passing on from thence to a mountain, that was on the east side of Bethel, he there pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east; he built there also an altar to the Lord, and called upon his name.
9 ثم ارتحل ابرام ارتحالا متواليا نحو الجنوب	9 And Abram went forward, going, and proceeding on to the south.
10 وحدث جوع في الارض. فانحدر ابرام الى مصر ليتغرب هناك. لان الجوع في الارض كان شديدا.	10 And there came a famine in the country; and Abram went down into Egypt, to sojourn there: for the famine was very grievous in the land.
11 وحدث لما قرب ان يدخل مصر انه قال لساراي امرأته اني قد علمت انك امرأة حسنة المنظر.	11 And when he was near to enter into Egypt, he said to Sarai his wife: I know that thou art a beautiful woman:
12 فيكون اذا رآك المصريون انهم يقولون هذه امرأته. فيقتلونني ويستبقونك.	12 And that when the Egyptians shall see thee, they will say: She is his wife: and they will kill me, and keep thee.
13 قولي انك اختي. ليكون لي خير بسببك وتحيا نفسي من اجلك	13 Say, therefore, I pray thee, that thou art my sister: that I may be well used for thee, and that my soul may live for thy sake.
14 فحدث لما دخل ابرام الى مصر ان المصريين رأوا المرأة انها حسنة جدا.	14 And when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians saw the woman that she was very beautiful.
15 ورآها رؤساء فرعون ومدحوها لدى فرعون. فأخذت المرأة الى بيت فرعون.	15 And the princes told Pharao, and praised her before him: and the woman was taken into the house of Pharao.
16 فصنع الى ابرام خيرا بسببها. وصار له غنم وبقر وحمير وعبيد واماء وأتن وجمال.	16 And they used Abram well for her sake. And he had sheep and oxen, and he asses, and menservants and maidservants, and she asses, and camels.
17 فضرب الرب فرعون وبيته ضربات عظيمة بسبب ساراي امرأة ابرام.	17 But the Lord scourged Pharao and his house with most grievous stripes for Sarai, Abram's wife.
18 فدعا فرعون ابرام وقال ما هذا الذي صنعت بي. لماذا لم تخبرني انها امرأتك.	18 And Pharao called Abram, and said to him: What is this that thou hast done to me? Why didst thou not tell me that she was thy wife.
19 لماذا قلت هي اختي حتى اخذتها لي لتكون زوجتي. والآن هوذا امرأتك. خذها واذهب.	19 For what cause didst thou say, she was thy sister, that I might take her to my wife? Now therefore, there is thy wife, take her, and go thy way.
20 فاوصى عليه فرعون رجالا فشيعوه وامرأته وكل ما كان له	20 And Pharao gave his men orders concerning Abram: and they led him away, and his wife, and all that he had.
