Genesi (تكوين) 26

SMITH VAN DYKE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 وكان في الارض جوع غير الجوع الاول الذي كان في ايام ابراهيم. فذهب اسحق الى ابيمالك ملك الفلسطينيين الى جرار.	1 And when a famine came in the land, after that barrenness which had happened in the days of Abraham, Isaac went to Abimelech king of the Palestines to Gerara.
2 وظهر له الرب وقال لا تنزل الى مصر. اسكن في الارض التي اقول لك.	2 And the Lord appeared to him and said: Go not down into Egypt, but stay in the land that I shall tell thee.
3 تغرب في هذه الارض. فاكون معك واباركك. لاني لك ولنسلك اعطي جميع هذه البلاد وافي بالقسم الذي اقسمت لابراهيم ابيك.	3 And sojourn in it, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee: for to thee and to thy seed I will give all these countries, to fulfill the oath which I swore to Abraham thy father.
4 واكثر نسلك كنجوم السماء واعطي نسلك جميع هذه البلاد وتتبارك في نسلك جميع امم الارض.	4 And I will multiply thy seed like the stars of heaven: and I will give to thy posterity all these countries: and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed.
5 من اجل ان ابراهيم سمع لقولي وحفظ ما يحفظ لي اوامري وفرائضي وشرائعي.	5 Because Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my precepts and commandments, and observed my ceremonies and laws.
6 فاقام اسحق في جرار	6 So Isaac abode in Gerara.
7 وسأله اهل المكان عن امرأته. فقال هي اختي. لانه خاف ان يقول امرأتي لعل اهل المكان يقتلونني من اجل رفقة لانها كانت حسنة المنظر.	7 And when he was asked by the men of that place, concerning his wife, he answered: She is my sister; for he was afraid to confess that she was his wife, thinking lest perhaps they would like him because of her beauty.
8 وحدث اذ طالت له الايام هناك ان ابيمالك ملك الفلسطينيين اشرف من الكوّة ونظر واذا اسحق يلاعب رفقة امرأته.	8 And when very many days were passed, and he abode there, Abimelech king of the Palestines looking out through a window, saw him playing with Rebecca his wife.
9 فدعا ابيمالك اسحق وقال انما هي امرأتك. فكيف قلت هي اختي. فقال له اسحق لاني قلت لعلي اموت بسببها.	9 And calling for him, he said: It is evident she is thy wife: why didst thou feign her to be thy sister? He answered: I feared lest I should die for her sake.
10 فقال ابيمالك ما هذا الذي صنعت بنا. لولا قليل لاضطجع احد الشعب مع امرأتك فجلبت علينا ذنبا.	10 And Abimelech said: Why hadst thou deceived us? Some man of the people might have lain with thy wife, and thou hadst brought upon us a great sin. And he commanded all the people, saying:
11 فاوصى ابيمالك جميع الشعب قائلا الذي يمسّ هذا الرجل او امرأته موتا يموت	11 He that shall touch this man's wife, shall surely be put to death.
12 وزرع اسحق في تلك الارض فاصاب في تلك السنة مئة ضعف وباركه الرب.	12 And Isaac sowed in that land, and he found that same year a hundredfold: and the Lord blessed him.
13 فتعاظم الرجل وكان يتزايد في التعاظم حتى صار عظيما جدا.	13 And the man was enriched, and he went on prospering and increasing, till he became exceeding great:
14 فكان له مواش من الغنم ومواش من البقر وعبيد كثيرون. فحسده الفلسطينيون.	14 And he had possessions of sheep and of herds, and a very great family. Wherefore the Palestines envying him,
15 وجميع الآبار التي حفرها عبيد ابيه في ايام ابراهيم ابيه طمّها الفلسطينيون وملأوها ترابا.	15 Stopped up at that time all the wells, that the servants of his father Abraham had digged, filling them up with earth:
16 وقال أبيمالك لاسحق اذهب من عندنا لانك صرت اقوى منا جدا.	16 Insomuch that Abimelech himself said to Isaac: Depart from us, for thou art become much mightier than we.
17 فمضى اسحق من هناك ونزل في وادي جرار واقام هناك	17 So he departed and came to the torrent of Gerara, to dwell there:
18 فعاد اسحق ونبش آبار الماء التي حفروها في ايام ابراهيم ابيه وطمّها الفلسطينيون بعد موت ابيه. ودعاها باسماء كالاسماء التي دعاها بها ابوه.	18 And he digged again other wells, which the servants of his father Abraham had digged, and which, after his death, the Palestines had of old stopped up: and he called them by the same names by which his father before had called them.
19 وحفر عبيد اسحق في الوادي فوجدوا هناك بئر ماء حيّ.	19 And they digged in the torrent, and found living water.
20 فخاصم رعاة جرار رعاة اسحق قائلين لنا الماء. فدعا اسم البئر عسق لانهم نازعوه.	20 But there also the herdsmen of Gerara strove against the herdsmen of Isaac, saying: It is our water. Wherefore he called the name of the well, on occasion of that which had happened, Calumny.
21 ثم حفروا بئرا اخرى وتخاصموا عليها ايضا. فدعى اسمها سطنة.	21 And they digged also another; and for that they quarreled likewise, and he called the name of it, Enmity.
22 ثم نقل من هناك وحفر بئرا اخرى ولم يتخاصموا عليها. فدعا اسمها رحوبوت. وقال انه الآن قد ارحب لنا الرب واثمرنا في الارض.	22 Going forward from thence, he digged another well, for which they contended not: therefore he called the name thereof, Latitude, saying: Now hath the Lord given us room, and made us to increase upon the earth.
23 ثم صعد من هناك الى بئر سبع.	23 And he went up from that place to Bersabee,
24 فظهر له الرب في تلك الليلة وقال انا اله ابراهيم ابيك. لا تخف لاني معك واباركك واكثر نسلك من اجل ابراهيم عبدي.	24 Where the Lord appeared to him that same might, saying: I am the God of Abraham thy father; do not fear, for I am with thee: I will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham's sake.
25 فبنى هناك مذبحا ودعا باسم الرب. ونصب هناك خيمته وحفر هناك عبيد اسحق بئرا	25 And he built there an altar: and called upon the name of the Lord, and pitched his tent: and commanded his servants to dig a well.
26 وذهب اليه من جرار ابيمالك وأحزّات من اصحابه وفيكول رئيس جيشه.	26 To which place when Abimelech, and Ochozath his friend, and Phicol chief captain of his soldiers came from Gerara,
27 فقال لهم اسحق ما بالكم أتيتم اليّ وانتم قد ابغضتموني وصرفتموني من عندكم.	27 Isaac said to them: Why are ye come to me, a man whom you hate, and have thrust out from you?
28 فقالوا اننا قد رأينا ان الرب كان معك. فقلنا ليكن بيننا حلف بيننا وبينك ونقطع معك عهدا	28 And they answered: We saw that the Lord is with thee, and therefore we said: Let there be an oath between us, and let us make a covenant,
29 ان لا تصنع بنا شرا. كما لم نمسّك وكما لم نصنع بك الا خيرا وصرفناك بسلام. انت الآن مبارك الرب.	29 That thou do us no harm, as we on our part have touched nothing of thine, nor have done any thing to hurt thee: but with peace have sent thee away increased with the blessing of the Lord.
30 فصنع لهم ضيافة. فأكلوا وشربوا.	30 And he made them a feast, and after they had eaten and drunk:
31 ثم بكروا في الغد وحلفوا بعضهم لبعض وصرفهم اسحق. فمضوا من عنده بسلام.	31 Arising in the morning, they swore one to another: and Isaac sent them away peaceably to their own home.
32 وحدث في ذلك اليوم ان عبيد اسحق جاءوا واخبروه عن البئر التي حفروا وقالوا له قد وجدنا ماء.	32 And behold the same day the servants of Isaac came, telling him of a well which they had digged, and saying: We have found water.
33 فدعاها شبعة. لذلك اسم المدينة بئر سبع الى هذا اليوم	33 Whereupon he called it Abundance: and the name of the city was called Bersabee, even to this day.
34 ولما كان عيسو ابن اربعين سنة اتخذ زوجة يهوديت ابنة بيري الحثّي وبسمة ابنة ايلون الحثّي.	34 And Esau being forty years old, married wives, Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hethite, and Basemath the daughter of Elon of the same place.
35 فكانتا مرارة نفس لاسحق ورفقة	35 And they both offended the mind of Isaac and Rebecca.
