< اَلتَّكْوِينُ 12 >

وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِأَبْرَامَ: «ٱذْهَبْ مِنْ أَرْضِكَ وَمِنْ عَشِيرَتِكَ وَمِنْ بَيْتِ أَبِيكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي أُرِيكَ. ١ 1
Now the LORD had said to Abram, Get you out of your country, and from your kindred, and from your father’s house, to a land that I will show you:
فَأَجْعَلَكَ أُمَّةً عَظِيمَةً وَأُبَارِكَكَ وَأُعَظِّمَ ٱسْمَكَ، وَتَكُونَ بَرَكَةً. ٢ 2
And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing:
وَأُبَارِكُ مُبَارِكِيكَ، وَلَاعِنَكَ أَلْعَنُهُ. وَتَتَبَارَكُ فِيكَ جَمِيعُ قَبَائِلِ ٱلْأَرْضِ». ٣ 3
And I will bless them that bless you, and curse him that curses you: and in you shall all families of the earth be blessed.
فَذَهَبَ أَبْرَامُ كَمَا قَالَ لَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ وَذَهَبَ مَعَهُ لُوطٌ. وَكَانَ أَبْرَامُ ٱبْنَ خَمْسٍ وَسَبْعِينَ سَنَةً لَمَّا خَرَجَ مِنْ حَارَانَ. ٤ 4
So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken to him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.
فَأَخَذَ أَبْرَامُ سَارَايَ ٱمْرَأَتَهُ، وَلُوطًا ٱبْنَ أَخِيهِ، وَكُلَّ مُقْتَنَيَاتِهِمَا ٱلَّتِي ٱقْتَنَيَا وَٱلنُّفُوسَ ٱلَّتِي ٱمْتَلَكَا فِي حَارَانَ. وَخَرَجُوا لِيَذْهَبُوا إِلَى أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ. فَأَتَوْا إِلَى أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ. ٥ 5
And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother’s son, and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran; and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.
وَٱجْتَازَ أَبْرَامُ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ إِلَى مَكَانِ شَكِيمَ إِلَى بَلُّوطَةِ مُورَةَ. وَكَانَ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيُّونَ حِينَئِذٍ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٦ 6
And Abram passed through the land to the place of Sichem, to the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.
وَظَهَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِأَبْرَامَ وَقَالَ: «لِنَسْلِكَ أُعْطِي هَذِهِ ٱلْأَرْضَ». فَبَنَى هُنَاكَ مَذْبَحًا لِلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي ظَهَرَ لَهُ. ٧ 7
And the LORD appeared to Abram, and said, To your seed will I give this land: and there built he an altar to the LORD, who appeared to him.
ثُمَّ نَقَلَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ شَرْقِيَّ بَيْتِ إِيلٍ وَنَصَبَ خَيْمَتَهُ. وَلَهُ بَيْتُ إِيلَ مِنَ ٱلْمَغْرِبِ وَعَايُ مِنَ ٱلْمَشْرِقِ. فَبَنَى هُنَاكَ مَذْبَحًا لِلرَّبِّ وَدَعَا بِٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٨ 8
And he removed from there to a mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east: and there he built an altar to the LORD, and called on the name of the LORD.
ثُمَّ ٱرْتَحَلَ أَبْرَامُ ٱرْتِحَالًا مُتَوَالِيًا نَحْوَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ. ٩ 9
And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the south.
وَحَدَثَ جُوعٌ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَٱنْحَدَرَ أَبْرَامُ إِلَى مِصْرَ لِيَتَغَرَّبَ هُنَاكَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْجُوعَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ كَانَ شَدِيدًا. ١٠ 10
And there was a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was grievous in the land.
وَحَدَثَ لَمَّا قَرُبَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ مِصْرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِسَارَايَ ٱمْرَأَتِهِ: «إِنِّي قَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكِ ٱمْرَأَةٌ حَسَنَةُ ٱلْمَنْظَرِ. ١١ 11
And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said to Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that you are a fair woman to look on:
فَيَكُونُ إِذَا رَآكِ ٱلْمِصْرِيُّونَ أَنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ: هَذِهِ ٱمْرَأَتُهُ. فَيَقْتُلُونَنِي وَيَسْتَبْقُونَكِ. ١٢ 12
Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see you, that they shall say, This is his wife: and they will kill me, but they will save you alive.
قُولِي إِنَّكِ أُخْتِي، لِيَكُونَ لِي خَيْرٌ بِسَبَبِكِ وَتَحْيَا نَفْسِي مِنْ أَجْلِكِ». ١٣ 13
Say, I pray you, you are my sister: that it may be well with me for your sake; and my soul shall live because of you.
فَحَدَثَ لَمَّا دَخَلَ أَبْرَامُ إِلَى مِصْرَ أَنَّ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ رَأَوْا ٱلْمَرْأَةَ أَنَّهَا حَسَنَةٌ جِدًّا. ١٤ 14
And it came to pass, that, when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair.
وَرَآهَا رُؤَسَاءُ فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَدَحُوهَا لَدَى فِرْعَوْنَ، فَأُخِذَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ إِلَى بَيْتِ فِرْعَوْنَ، ١٥ 15
The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her before Pharaoh: and the woman was taken into Pharaoh’s house.
فَصَنَعَ إِلَى أَبْرَامَ خَيْرًا بِسَبَبِهَا، وَصَارَ لَهُ غَنَمٌ وَبَقَرٌ وَحَمِيرٌ وَعَبِيدٌ وَإِمَاءٌ وَأُتُنٌ وَجِمَالٌ. ١٦ 16
And he entreated Abram well for her sake: and he had sheep, and oxen, and he asses, and menservants, and maidservants, and she asses, and camels.
فَضَرَبَ ٱلرَّبُّ فِرْعَوْنَ وَبَيْتَهُ ضَرَبَاتٍ عَظِيمَةً بِسَبَبِ سَارَايَ ٱمْرَأَةِ أَبْرَامَ. ١٧ 17
And the LORD plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai Abram’s wife.
فَدَعَا فِرْعَوْنُ أَبْرَامَ وَقَالَ: «مَا هَذَا ٱلَّذِي صَنَعْتَ بِي؟ لِمَاذَا لَمْ تُخْبِرْنِي أَنَّهَا ٱمْرَأَتُكَ؟ ١٨ 18
And Pharaoh called Abram and said, What is this that you have done to me? why did you not tell me that she was your wife?
لِمَاذَا قُلْتَ: هِيَ أُخْتِي، حَتَّى أَخَذْتُهَا لِي لِتَكُونَ زَوْجَتِي؟ وَٱلْآنَ هُوَذَا ٱمْرَأَتُكَ! خُذْهَا وَٱذْهَبْ!». ١٩ 19
Why said you, She is my sister? so I might have taken her to me to wife: now therefore behold your wife, take her, and go your way.
فَأَوْصَى عَلَيْهِ فِرْعَوْنُ رِجَالًا فَشَيَّعُوهُ وَٱمْرَأَتَهُ وَكُلَّ مَا كَانَ لَهُ. ٢٠ 20
And Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him: and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had.
