Genesi (تكوين) 26

SMITH VAN DYKE	NEW JERUSALEM
1 وكان في الارض جوع غير الجوع الاول الذي كان في ايام ابراهيم. فذهب اسحق الى ابيمالك ملك الفلسطينيين الى جرار.	1 There was a famine in the country -- different from the previous famine which took place in the time ofAbraham -- and Isaac went to Abimelech, the Philistine king at Gerar.
2 وظهر له الرب وقال لا تنزل الى مصر. اسكن في الارض التي اقول لك.	2 Yahweh had appeared to him and said, 'Do not go down to Egypt; stay in the country which I shalpoint out to you.
3 تغرب في هذه الارض. فاكون معك واباركك. لاني لك ولنسلك اعطي جميع هذه البلاد وافي بالقسم الذي اقسمت لابراهيم ابيك.	3 Remain for the present in that country; I shal be with you and bless you, for I shal give al thesecountries to you and your descendants in fulfilment of the oath I swore to your father Abraham.
4 واكثر نسلك كنجوم السماء واعطي نسلك جميع هذه البلاد وتتبارك في نسلك جميع امم الارض.	4 I shal make your descendants as numerous as the stars of heaven, and I shal give them al thesecountries, and al nations on earth wil bless themselves by your descendants
5 من اجل ان ابراهيم سمع لقولي وحفظ ما يحفظ لي اوامري وفرائضي وشرائعي.	5 in return for Abraham's obedience; for he kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes and mylaws.'
6 فاقام اسحق في جرار	6 So Isaac stayed at Gerar.
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 When the people of the place asked him about his wife he replied, 'She is my sister,' for he was afraidto say, 'She is my wife,' thinking, 'The people of the place wil kil me because of Rebekah, since she is beautiful.'
8 وحدث اذ طالت له الايام هناك ان ابيمالك ملك الفلسطينيين اشرف من الكوّة ونظر واذا اسحق يلاعب رفقة امرأته.	8 When he had been there some time, Abimelech the Philistine king happened to look out of the windowand saw Isaac fondling his wife Rebekah.
9 فدعا ابيمالك اسحق وقال انما هي امرأتك. فكيف قلت هي اختي. فقال له اسحق لاني قلت لعلي اموت بسببها.	9 Abimelech summoned Isaac and said to him, 'Surely she must be your wife! How could you have said,"She is my sister"?' Isaac replied, 'Because I thought I might be kil ed on her account.'
10 فقال ابيمالك ما هذا الذي صنعت بنا. لولا قليل لاضطجع احد الشعب مع امرأتك فجلبت علينا ذنبا.	10 Abimelech said, 'What a thing to do to us! One of the people might easily have slept with your wife.We should have incurred guilt, thanks to you.'
11 فاوصى ابيمالك جميع الشعب قائلا الذي يمسّ هذا الرجل او امرأته موتا يموت	11 Then Abimelech issued this order to al the people: 'Whoever touches this man or his wife wil be putto death.'
12 وزرع اسحق في تلك الارض فاصاب في تلك السنة مئة ضعف وباركه الرب.	12 Isaac sowed his crops in that country, and that year he reaped a hundredfold. Yahweh blessed him
13 فتعاظم الرجل وكان يتزايد في التعاظم حتى صار عظيما جدا.	13 and the man became rich; he prospered more and more until he was very rich indeed.
14 فكان له مواش من الغنم ومواش من البقر وعبيد كثيرون. فحسده الفلسطينيون.	14 He acquired flocks and herds and a large retinue. The Philistines began to envy him.
15 وجميع الآبار التي حفرها عبيد ابيه في ايام ابراهيم ابيه طمّها الفلسطينيون وملأوها ترابا.	15 The Philistines had blocked up al the wel s dug by his father's servants -- in the days of his fatherAbraham -- fil ing them in with earth.
16 وقال أبيمالك لاسحق اذهب من عندنا لانك صرت اقوى منا جدا.	16 Then Abimelech said to Isaac, 'You must leave us, for you have become much more powerful thanwe are.'
17 فمضى اسحق من هناك ونزل في وادي جرار واقام هناك	17 So Isaac left; he pitched camp in the Val ey of Gerar and there he stayed.
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 Isaac reopened the wel s dug by the servants of his father Abraham and blocked up by thePhilistines after Abraham's death, and he gave them the same names as his father had given them.
19 وحفر عبيد اسحق في الوادي فوجدوا هناك بئر ماء حيّ.	19 But when Isaac's servants, digging in the val ey, found a wel of spring-water there,
20 فخاصم رعاة جرار رعاة اسحق قائلين لنا الماء. فدعا اسم البئر عسق لانهم نازعوه.	20 the herdsmen of Gerar disputed it with Isaac's herdsmen, saying, 'That water is ours!' So Isaacnamed the wel Esek, because they had disputed with him.
21 ثم حفروا بئرا اخرى وتخاصموا عليها ايضا. فدعى اسمها سطنة.	21 They dug another wel , and there was a dispute over that one too; so he named it Sitnah.
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 Then he left there, and dug another wel , and since there was no dispute over this one, he named itRehoboth, saying, 'Now Yahweh has made room for us to thrive in the country.'
23 ثم صعد من هناك الى بئر سبع.	23 From there he went up to Beersheba.
24 فظهر له الرب في تلك الليلة وقال انا اله ابراهيم ابيك. لا تخف لاني معك واباركك واكثر نسلك من اجل ابراهيم عبدي.	24 Yahweh appeared to him the same night and said: I am the God of your father Abraham. Do not beafraid, for I am with you. I shall bless you and multiply your offspring for my servant Abraham's sake.
25 فبنى هناك مذبحا ودعا باسم الرب. ونصب هناك خيمته وحفر هناك عبيد اسحق بئرا	25 There he built an altar and invoked the name of Yahweh. There he pitched his tent, and there Isaac'sservants sank a wel .
26 وذهب اليه من جرار ابيمالك وأحزّات من اصحابه وفيكول رئيس جيشه.	26 Abimelech came from Gerar to see him, with Ahuzzath his adviser and Phicol the commander of hisarmy.
27 فقال لهم اسحق ما بالكم أتيتم اليّ وانتم قد ابغضتموني وصرفتموني من عندكم.	27 Isaac said to them, 'Why do you come to me since you hate me, and have made me leave you?'
28 فقالوا اننا قد رأينا ان الرب كان معك. فقلنا ليكن بيننا حلف بيننا وبينك ونقطع معك عهدا	28 'It became clear to us that Yahweh was with you,' they replied, 'and so we thought, "It is time to havea treaty sworn between us, between us and you." So let us make a covenant with you:
29 ان لا تصنع بنا شرا. كما لم نمسّك وكما لم نصنع بك الا خيرا وصرفناك بسلام. انت الآن مبارك الرب.	29 that you will not do us any harm, since we never molested you but were unfailingly kind to you andlet you go away in peace. Henceforth, Yahweh's blessing on you!'
30 فصنع لهم ضيافة. فأكلوا وشربوا.	30 He then made them a feast and they ate and drank.
31 ثم بكروا في الغد وحلفوا بعضهم لبعض وصرفهم اسحق. فمضوا من عنده بسلام.	31 Early next morning, they exchanged oaths. Then Isaac bade them farewell and they left him asfriends.
32 وحدث في ذلك اليوم ان عبيد اسحق جاءوا واخبروه عن البئر التي حفروا وقالوا له قد وجدنا ماء.	32 It happened, the same day, that Isaac's servants brought him news about the well they had beendigging. 'We have found water!' they said to him.
33 فدعاها شبعة. لذلك اسم المدينة بئر سبع الى هذا اليوم	33 So he cal ed the wel Sheba, and hence the town is named Beersheba to this day.
34 ولما كان عيسو ابن اربعين سنة اتخذ زوجة يهوديت ابنة بيري الحثّي وبسمة ابنة ايلون الحثّي.	34 When Esau was forty years old he married Judith daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Basemathdaughter of Elon the Hittite.
35 فكانتا مرارة نفس لاسحق ورفقة	35 These were a bitter disappointment to Isaac and Rebekah.
