Genesis 26
1 And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar.
Pea naʻe tō ʻae honge ki he fonua: ka ʻoku taha kehe ʻae ʻuluaki honge ʻaia naʻe hoko ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻEpalahame. Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa ʻAisake ki Kela kia ʻApimeleki ko e tuʻi ʻoe kakai Filisitia.
2 And the LORD appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of:
Pea naʻe hā mai ʻa Sihova kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē, “ʻOua naʻa ke ʻalu hifo ki ʻIsipite: nofo ʻi he fonua ʻaia te u fakahā kiate koe.
3 Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father;
Ke ke nofomaʻu ʻi he fonua ni, pea teu ʻiate koe, pea te u tāpuakiʻi koe; he te u foaki kiate koe mo ho hako ʻae ngaahi fonua ni kotoa pē, pea te u fakamoʻoni ʻae fuakava ʻaia naʻaku fuakava ʻaki ki hoʻo tamai ko ʻEpalahame.
4 And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;
Pea te u fakatupu ho hako ke tokolahi, ʻo hangē ko e ngaahi fetuʻu ʻoe langi; pea te u foaki ki ho hako ʻae ngaahi fonua ni kotoa pē; pea ʻe monūʻia ʻi ho hako ʻae puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani;
5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.
Koeʻuhi naʻe talangofua ʻa ʻEpalahame ki hoku leʻo, mo ne maʻu ʻeku tala, mo ʻeku ngaahi fekau, mo ʻeku tuʻutuʻuni, mo ʻeku ngaahi fono.”
6 And Isaac dwelt in Gerar:
Pea naʻe nofo ʻa ʻAisake ʻi Kela.
7 And the men of the place asked [him] of his wife; and he said, She [is] my sister: for he feared to say, [She is] my wife; lest, [said he], the men of the place should kill me for Rebekah; because she [was] fair to look upon.
Pea fehuʻi kiate ia ʻae kakai tangata ʻoe potu ko ia, ki hono uaifi: pea pehē ʻe ia, ko hoku tuofefine ia; he naʻe manavahē ia ke pehē atu, ‘Ko hoku uaifi ia;’ he naʻa ne pehē, telia naʻa tāmateʻi au ʻe he kau tangata ʻoe potu ni, koeʻuhi ko Lepeka; he naʻe hoihoifua ia ke mamata ki ai.
8 And it came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked out at a window, and saw, and, behold, Isaac [was] sporting with Rebekah his wife.
Pea naʻe nofo ia ʻi ai ʻo fuoloa; pea ʻiloange, naʻe fakasio ʻa ʻApimeleki ko e tuʻi ʻoe kakai Filisitia, mei he tupa, ʻo ne mamata ʻoku fakavā ʻa ʻAisake mo Lepeka ko hono uaifi.
9 And Abimelech called Isaac, and said, Behold, of a surety she [is] thy wife: and how saidst thou, She [is] my sister? And Isaac said unto him, Because I said, Lest I die for her.
Pea fekau ʻe ʻApimeleki ke haʻu ʻa ʻAisake, ʻo ne pehē, “Vakai, ko e moʻoni ko ho uaifi ia; pea ko e hā naʻa ke pehē ai, ko hoku tuofefine ia?” Pea talaange ʻe ʻAisake kiate ia, “Koeʻuhi naʻaku pehē, telia naʻaku mate koeʻuhi ko ia.”
10 And Abimelech said, What [is] this thou hast done unto us? one of the people might lightly have lien with thy wife, and thou shouldest have brought guiltiness upon us.
Pea pehē ʻe ʻApimeleki, “Ko e hā ʻae meʻa ni kuo ke fai kiate kimautolu? Ka ne mohe faainoa ha tokotaha mo ho uaifi; pehē kuo ke ʻomi ʻae kovi lahi kiate kimautolu.”
11 And Abimelech charged all [his] people, saying, He that toucheth this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.
Pea fai fono ʻe ʻApimeleki ki hono kakai, ʻo pehē, “Ko ia ʻe ala ki he tangata ni, pe ko hono uaifi, ko e moʻoni ʻe tāmateʻi ia.”
12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him.
Pea naʻe toki tō taʻu ʻe ʻAisake ʻi he fonua ko ia, pea ne utu ʻi he taʻu ko ia hono tupu ʻe tā tuʻo teau: pea naʻe tāpuaki ia ʻe Sihova.
13 And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great:
Pea naʻe tupu pe ʻae tangata, pea fakaʻaʻau ki muʻa ia, pea ne tupu ʻo lahi ʻaupito.
14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him.
He naʻa ne maʻu ʻae fanga sipi lahi, mo e fanga manu, mo e kau tamaioʻeiki tokolahi; pea naʻe meheka ʻae kakai Filisitia kiate ia.
15 For all the wells which his father’s servants had digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped them, and filled them with earth.
He ko e ngaahi vai kehekehe naʻe keli ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa ʻene tamai, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻEpalahame, naʻe mapuni ia ʻe he kakai Filisitia ʻi hono tanu ʻaki ʻae kelekele.
16 And Abimelech said unto Isaac, Go from us; for thou art much mightier than we.
Pea pehē ʻe ʻApimeleki kia ʻAisake, “Ke ke ʻalu ʻiate kimautolu; he ʻoku ke mālohi hake koe ʻiate kimautolu.”
17 And Isaac departed thence, and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.
Pea ʻalu mei ai ʻa ʻAisake, pea fokotuʻu hono fale fehikitaki ʻi he teleʻa ʻo Kela, pea nofo ai ia.
18 And Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged in the days of Abraham his father; for the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham: and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them.
Pea naʻe toe keli ʻe ʻAisake ʻae ngaahi vai, ʻaia naʻa nau keli ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo ʻene tamai ko ʻEpalahame: he naʻe tanu ia ʻe he kakai Filisitia, hili ʻae pekia ʻa ʻEpalahame: pea ne ui ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi hingoa, ʻaia naʻe fakahingoa ʻaki ia ʻe heʻene tamai.
19 And Isaac’s servants digged in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.
Pea naʻe keli ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa ʻAisake ʻi he teleʻa ʻo nau ʻilo ai ʻae matavai moʻui.
20 And the herdmen of Gerar did strive with Isaac’s herdmen, saying, The water [is] ours: and he called the name of the well Esek; because they strove with him.
Pea fakakikihi ʻe he kau tangata tauhimanu ʻa Kela, mo e kau tauhimanu ʻa ʻAisake, ʻo nau pehē, “ʻOku ʻamautolu ʻae vai;” pea ne ui hono hingoa ʻoe vai, ‘ko Eseki;’ ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau ke mo ia.
21 And they digged another well, and strove for that also: and he called the name of it Sitnah.
Pea naʻa nau keli ʻae vai ʻe taha, pea nau fakakikihi ki ai foki; pea ne ui hono hingoa ʻo ia ko Sitina.
22 And he removed from thence, and digged another well; and for that they strove not: and he called the name of it Rehoboth; and he said, For now the LORD hath made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.
Pea hiki mei ai ia ʻo keli ʻae vai ʻe taha; pea naʻe ʻikai te nau fakakikihi ki ai; pea ne ui hono hingoa ʻo ia ko Leopote; pea ne pehē, “He ko eni, kuo fakaʻataʻatā ʻe Sihova ha potu kiate kitautolu, pea te tau tupu ʻi he fonua.”
23 And he went up from thence to Beer-sheba.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ia mei ai ki Peasipa.
24 And the LORD appeared unto him the same night, and said, I [am] the God of Abraham thy father: fear not, for I [am] with thee, and will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham’s sake.
Pea hā mai ʻa Sihova kiate ia ʻi he pō ko ia, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e ʻOtua au ʻo hoʻo tamai ko ʻEpalahame; ʻOua naʻa ke manavahē, he ʻoku ou ʻiate koe, pea te u tāpuaki koe, pea fakatokolahi ho hako, koeʻuhi ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko ʻEpalahame.”
25 And he builded an altar there, and called upon the name of the LORD, and pitched his tent there: and there Isaac’s servants digged a well.
Pea fokotuʻu ʻe ia ʻi ai ʻae ʻesifeilaulau ʻo ne hū kia Sihova, pea fokotuʻu ʻe ia hono fale fehikitaki ʻi ai; pea keli ʻi ai ʻe he kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa ʻAisake ʻae vai.
26 Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath one of his friends, and Phichol the chief captain of his army.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa ʻApimeleki kiate ia mei Kela, pea mo hono kāinga ʻe taha ko ʻAhusate, mo Fikoli ko e ʻeiki ʻo ʻene kautau.
27 And Isaac said unto them, Wherefore come ye to me, seeing ye hate me, and have sent me away from you?
Pea pehē ʻe ʻAisake kiate kinautolu, “Ko e hā ʻoku mou haʻu ai kiate au, ka ʻoku mou fehiʻa kiate au, pea kuo mou kapusi au meiate kimoutolu.”
28 And they said, We saw certainly that the LORD was with thee: and we said, Let there be now an oath betwixt us, [even] betwixt us and thee, and let us make a covenant with thee;
Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Naʻa mau mamata pau kuo ʻiate koe ʻa Sihova; pea naʻa mau pehē, ‘Ke tau fefuakavaʻaki mo koe, ʻio, ʻiate kitautolu mo koe, pea ke tau fai ʻae fuakava mo koe;’
29 That thou wilt do us no hurt, as we have not touched thee, and as we have done unto thee nothing but good, and have sent thee away in peace: thou [art] now the blessed of the LORD.
Ke ʻoua naʻa ke fai kovi kiate kimautolu, ʻo hangē ko ʻemau taʻeala kiate koe, pea kuo mau fai lelei pe kiate koe, pea mau tuku koe ke ke ʻalu fiemālie: pea ko eni, ko e monūʻia koe ʻia Sihova.”
30 And he made them a feast, and they did eat and drink.
Pea naʻe teu ʻe ia hanau kātoanga, pea naʻa nau kai mo inu.
31 And they rose up betimes in the morning, and sware one to another: and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.
Pea nau tuʻu hengihengi hake mo nau fefuakavaʻaki: pea naʻe tukuange ʻakinautolu ʻe ʻAisake, pea naʻa nau ʻalu ʻiate ia ʻi he fiemālie.
32 And it came to pass the same day, that Isaac’s servants came, and told him concerning the well which they had digged, and said unto him, We have found water.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻi he ʻaho ko ia ʻae haʻu ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa ʻAisake, ʻo nau fakahā kiate ia ʻae vai kuo nau keli, ʻo nau pehē kiate ia, “Kuo mau ʻilo ʻae vai.”
33 And he called it Shebah: therefore the name of the city [is] Beer-sheba unto this day.
Pea ne ui ia ko Sipa; ko ia ʻoku ui ai ʻae kolo ko ia ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, ko Peasipa.
34 And Esau was forty years old when he took to wife Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite:
Pea naʻe fāngofulu ʻae taʻu ʻa ʻIsoa, pea ne maʻu kiate ia ʻa Sutiti ko hono uaifi, ko e ʻofefine ʻo Peli ko e [tangata Heti], mo Pasimati ko e ʻofefine ʻo ʻElone ko e [tangata ]Heti.
35 Which were a grief of mind unto Isaac and to Rebekah.
Ko e meʻa ko ia, naʻe mamahi ai ʻae loto ʻo ʻAisake mo Lepeka.
