1 Mosebog 21
1 HERREN så til Sara, som han havde lovet, og HERREN gjorde ved Sara, som han havde sagt,
And the Lord visited Sarrha, as he said, and the Lord did to Sarrha, as he spoke.
2 og hun undfangede og fødte Abraham en Søn i hans Alderdom, til den Tid Gud havde sagt ham.
And she conceived and bore to Abraam a son in old age, at the set time according as the Lord spoke to him.
3 Abraham kaldte den Søn, han fik med Sara, Isak;
And Abraam called the name of his son that was born to him, whom Sarrha bore to him, Isaac.
4 og Abraham omskar sin Søn Isak, da han var otte Dage gammel, således som Gud havde pålagt ham.
And Abraam circumcised Isaac on the eighth day, as God commanded him.
5 Abraham var 100 År gammel, da hans Søn Isak fødtes ham.
And Abraam was a hundred years old when Isaac his son was born to him.
6 Da sagde Sara: "Gud ham beredt mig Latter; enhver, der hører det, vil le ad mig."
And Sarrha said, The Lord has made laughter for me, for whoever shall hear shall rejoice with me.
7 Og hun sagde: "Hvem skulde have sagt Abraham, at Sara ammer Børn! Sandelig, jeg har født ham en Søn i hans Alderdom!"
And she said, Who shall say to Abraam that Sarrha suckles a child? for I have born a child in my old age.
8 Drengen voksede til og blev vænnet fra, og Abraham gjorde et stort Gæstebud, den dag Isak blev vænnet fra.
And the child grew and was weaned, and Abraam made a great feast the day that his son Isaac was weaned.
9 Men da Sara så Ægypterinden Hagars Søn, som hun havde født Abraham, lege med hendes Søn Isak,
And Sarrha having seen the son of Agar the Egyptian who was born to Abraam, sporting with Isaac her son,
10 sagde hun til Abraham: "Jag den Trælkvinde og hendes Søn bort, thi ikke skal denne Trælkvindes Søn arve sammen med min Søn, med Isak!"
then she said to Abraam, Cast out this bondwoman and her son, for the son of this bondwoman shall not inherit with my son Isaac.
11 Derover blev Abraham såre ilde til Mode for sin Søns Skyld;
But the word appeared very hard before Abraam concerning his son.
12 men Gud sagde til Abraham: "Vær ikke ilde til Mode over Drengen og din Trælkvinde, men adlyd Sara i alt, hvad hun siger dig, thi efter Isak skal dit Afkom nævnes;
But God said to Abraam, Let it not be hard before thee concerning the child, and concerning the bondwoman; in all things whatsoever Sarrha shall say to thee, hear her voice, for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
13 men også Trælkvindens Søn vil jeg gøre til et stort Folk; han er jo dit Afkom!"
And moreover I will make the son of this bondwoman a great nation, because he is thy seed.
14 Tidligt næste Morgen tog da Abraham Brød og en Sæk Vand og gav Hagar det, og Drengen satte han på hendes Skulder, hvorpå han sendte hende bort. Som hun nu vandrede af Sted, for hun vild i Be'ersjebas Ørken,
And Abraam rose up in the morning and took loaves and a skin of water, and gave [them] to Agar, and he put the child on her shoulder, and sent her away, and she having departed wandered in the wilderness near the well of the oath.
15 og Vandet slap op i hendes Sæk; da lagde hun Drengen hen under en af Buskene
And the water failed out of the skin, and she cast the child under a fir tree.
16 og gik hen og satte sig i omtrent et Pileskuds Afstand derfra, idet hun sagde ved sig selv: "Jeg kan ikke udholde at se Drengen dø!" Og således sad hun, medens Drengen græd højt.
And she departed and sat down opposite him at a distance, as it were a bow-shot, for she said, Surely I cannot see the death of my child: and she sat opposite him, and the child cried aloud and wept.
17 Da hørte Gud Drengens Gråd, og Guds Engel råbte til Hagar fra Himmelen og sagde til hende: "Hvad fattes dig, Hagar? Frygt ikke, thi Gud har hørt Drengens Røst der, hvor, han ligger;
And God heard the voice of the child from the place where he was, and an angel of God called Agar out of heaven, and said to her, What is it, Agar? fear not, for God has heard the voice of the child from the place where he is.
18 rejs dig, hjælp Drengen op og tag ham ved Hånden, thi jeg vil gøre ham til et stort Folk!"
Rise up, and take the child, and hold him in thine hand, for I will make him a great nation.
19 Da åbnede Gud hendes Øjne, så hun fik Øje på en Brønd med Vand; og hun gik hen og fyldte Sækken med Vand og gav Drengen at drikke.
And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of springing water; and she went and filled the skin with water, and gave the child drink.
20 Og Gud var med Drengen, og han voksede til; og han bosatte sig i Ørkenen og blev Bueskytte.
And God was with the child, and he grew and dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer.
21 Han boede i Parans Ørken, og hans Moder tog ham en Hustru fra Ægypten.
And he dwelt in the wilderness, and his mother took him a wife out of Pharan of Egypt.
22 Ved den Tid sagde Abimelek og hans Hærfører Pikol til Abraham: "Gud er med dig i alt, hvad du tager dig for;
And it came to pass at that time that Abimelech spoke, and Ochozath his friend, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, to Abraam, saying, God is with thee in all things, whatsoever thou mayest do.
23 tilsværg mig derfor her ved Gud, at du aldrig vil være troløs mod mig eller mine Efterkommere, men at du vil handle lige så venligt mod mig og det Land, du gæster, som jeg har handlet mod dig!"
Now therefore swear to me by God that thou wilt not injure me, nor my seed, nor my name, but according to the righteousness which I have performed with thee thou shalt deal with me, and with the land in which thou hast sojourned.
24 Da svarede Abraham: "Jeg vil sværge!"
And Abraam said, I will swear.
25 Men Abraham krævede Abimelek til Regnskab for en Brønd, som Abimeleks Folk havde tilranet sig.
And Abraam reproved Abimelech because of the wells of water, which the servants of Abimelech took away.
26 Da svarede Abimelek: "Jeg ved intet om, hvem der har gjort det; hverken har du underrettet mig derom, ej heller har jeg hørt det før i Dag!"
And Abimelech said to him, I know not who has done this thing to thee, neither didst thou tell it me, neither heard I it but only to-day.
27 Da tog Abraham Småkvæg og Hornkvæg og gav Abimelek det, og derpå sluttede de Pagt med hinanden.
And Abraam took sheep and calves, and gave them to Abimelech, and both made a covenant.
28 Men Abraham satte syv Lam til Side,
And Abraam set seven ewe-lambs by themselves.
29 og da Abimelek spurgte ham: "Hvad betyder de syv Lam, du der har sat til Side?"
And Abimelech said to Abraam, What are these seven ewe-lambs which thou hast set alone?
30 svarede han: "Jo, de syv Lam skal du modtage af min Hånd til Vidnesbyrd om, at jeg har gravet denne Brønd."
And Abraam said, Thou shalt receive the seven ewe-lambs of me, that they may be for me as a witness, that I dug this well.
31 Derfor kaldte man dette Sted Be'ersjeba, thi der svor de hinanden Eder;
Therefore he named the name of that place, The Well of the Oath, for there they both swore.
32 og de sluttede Pagt ved Be'ersjeba. Så brød Abimelek og hans Hærfører Pikol op og vendte tilbage til Filisternes Land.
And they made a covenant at the well of the oath. And there rose up Abimelech, Ochozath his friend, and Phichol the commander-in-chief of his army, and they returned to the land of the Phylistines.
33 Men Abraham plantede en Tamarisk i Be'ersjeba og påkaldte der HERREN den evige Guds Navn.
And Abraam planted a field at the well of the oath, and called there on the name of the Lord, the everlasting God.
34 Og Abraham boede en Tid lang; som fremmed i Filisternes Land.
And Abraam sojourned in the land of the Phylistines many days.
