< Genesis 26 >

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.
Lao esa, hambu ndoe-laꞌas manaseliꞌ sia nusaꞌ naa, onaꞌ ndoe-laꞌas leleꞌ Abraham feꞌe masodꞌaꞌ. Dadꞌi Isak neu noꞌe isin sia Abimelek, atahori Filistin ra mane na, fo eni bisa leo sia Gerar.
2 And the Lord appeared to him and said: Go not down into Egypt, but stay in the land that I shall tell thee.
Ana tao taꞌo naa, huu LAMATUALAIN natudꞌu Ao na neu e nae, “Afiꞌ muu sia Masir. Dei fo Au utudꞌu nggo mamana feaꞌ.
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.
Mete ma ho leo manumban sia mamanaꞌ naa, naa, Au o nggo, ma fee nggo papala-babꞌanggiꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ. Au tao tititi-nonosi mara ramahefu, onaꞌ nduuꞌ sia lalai a. Au fee nggo mo tititi-nonosi mara mamanaꞌ ia no basa nusa nara. Mia tititi-nonosi mara, basa atahori raefafoꞌ a hambu papala-babꞌanggiꞌ. No naa, Au tao utetu hehelu-fufuli ngga o amam Abraham.
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 Because Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my precepts and commandments, and observed my ceremonies and laws.
Au tao basa ia ra, huu amam tungga hihii Ngga, parenda Ngga, ma dala Ngga.”
6 So Isaac abode in Gerara.
De Isak leo manumban sia Gerar.
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 kill him because of her beauty.
Ribka, meulau na seli. Dadꞌi atahori sia naa ra rita e ma, ara ratatane e. Te Isak nataa nae, “Ribka ia, au odꞌi ngga.” Ana namatau mete ma eni nataa nae sao na, neꞌo atahori ra tao risa e fo haꞌi rala Ribka.
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.
Isak leo dodꞌoo sia naa ena ma, lao esa maneꞌ a nakaloloik mia jendela, ma nita Isak holu ma idꞌu Ribka.
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.
Boe ma ana denu atahori roꞌe Isak, de natane e nae, “Isak! Inaꞌ naa, sao ma! Saa de mae, ho odꞌim?” Isak nataa nae, “Taꞌo ia, amaꞌ! Au umutau mete ma ae eni, au sao ngga, afiꞌ losa atahori ra tao risa au.”
10 And Abimelech said: Why hast 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:
Maneꞌ a nataa nae, “Mete ma atahori sia ia sungguꞌ ro sao ma naa, ho fee salaꞌ neu hai! Taꞌo bee de ho tao taꞌo naa neu hai?”
11 He that shall touch this man’s wife, shall surely be put to death.
Basa ma, Abimelek fee nesenenedꞌaꞌ neu rauinggu nara nae, “Misinedꞌa malolole! Hei seka mimbirani ngganggu atahori ia, do sao na, naa, au hukun isa nggi.”
12 And Isaac sowed in that land, and he found that same year a hundredfold: and the Lord blessed him.
Leleꞌ naa, Isak sela-nggari sia nusaꞌ naa. Ana hambu baliꞌ buna-bꞌoa na lao natun esa, huu LAMATUALAIN fee ne papala-babꞌanggiꞌ.
13 And the man was enriched, and he went on prospering and increasing, till he became exceeding great:
Ana bau namasuꞌi, losa namasuꞌi raranggi.
14 And he had possessions of sheep and of herds, and a very great family. Wherefore the Palestines envying him,
Sapi, bibꞌi, ma hiek nara, boe ramahefu. Ana mana tao ues nara o, hetar boe. De atahori Filistin ra rala nara mera mbali e.
15 Stopped up at that time all the wells, that the servants of his father Abraham had digged, filling them up with earth:
Maꞌahulu naa, Isak aman Abraham se ali oe mataꞌ naeꞌ. Te ia naa, atahori Filistin ra mbori raꞌateme oe mataꞌ ra no rae.
16 Insomuch that Abimelech himself said to Isaac: Depart from us, for thou art become much mightier than we.
Boe ma mane Abimelek olaꞌ no Isak nae, “Isak! Malole lenaꞌ, ho lao hela nusaꞌ ia leo. Te koasa ma lenaꞌ hai ena.”
17 So he departed and came to the torrent of Gerara, to dwell there:
Basa de, Isak lao hela naa, de neu leo baliꞌ sia lololoꞌ Gerar.
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.
Ana ali baliꞌ oe mataꞌ, fo ara tatanaꞌ ra. Ana babꞌae oe mataꞌ ra, tungga nara-naraꞌ fo ama na babꞌae nalaꞌ ra.
19 And they digged in the torrent, and found living water.
Isak ate nara ali oe mataꞌ sia lololoꞌ Gerar ma, ara ali dai oe a mata na, de nasapupuraꞌ dea neu.
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.
Te Gerar manatadꞌa nara rareresi ro Isak manatadꞌa nara, huu oe mataꞌ naa. Ara rae, “Ia hai oe ma!” Naa de, Isak babꞌae oe mataꞌ naa Esek, sosoa na ‘rareresi’.
21 And they digged also another; and for that they quarrelled likewise, and he called the name of it, Enmity.
Basa ma, Isak atahori nara ali seluꞌ oe mataꞌ esa fai. Te ara rareresi fai, huu oe mataꞌ naa. Naa de, Isak babꞌae oe mataꞌ naa, Sitna, sosoa na ‘balabꞌan’.
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.
Basa naa ma, ana lao hela mamanaꞌ naa, de ali seluꞌ oe mataꞌ feaꞌ fai. Ia ma, ara nda rareresi sa. Naa de Isak babꞌae oe mataꞌ naa, Rehobot, sosoa na ‘mamana loaꞌ’. Ana olaꞌ nae, “Ia naa, Lamatualain fee hita leo sia mamana loaꞌ. Sia ia dei de, hita feꞌe tamahefu naa.”
23 And he went up from that place to Bersabee,
Mia naa, Isak se lao fo reu leo sia Beer Syeba.
24 Where the Lord appeared to him that same night, 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.
Tetembaꞌ naa, LAMATUALAIN natudꞌu Ao na neu e, ma olaꞌ nae, “Isak! Au ia, ho ama ma Abraham Lamatualain na. Afiꞌ mumutau, te Au unea nggo. Au fee nggo papala-babꞌanggiꞌ. Ma tititi-nonosi mara boe ramahefu. Au tao taꞌo ia, huu hehelu-fufuli Ngga neu ama ma.”
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.
Basa ma Isak lutu mbatu mei tutunu-hohotuꞌ sia naa, de noꞌe makasi neu LAMATUALAIN. Ana leo sia naa, ma atahori nara ali oe fai.
26 To which place when Abimelech, and Ochozath his friend, and Phicol chief captain of his soldiers came from Gerara,
Leleꞌ naa, mane Abimelek nema mia Gerar. Ana nema no nonoo na Ahusat, ma malangga netati na, Fikol, fo randaa ro Isak.
27 Isaac said to them: Why are ye come to me, a man whom you hate, and have thrust out from you?
Isak natane nae, “Ama maneꞌ! Feꞌesaꞌan, hei oi hendi hai ena. De ia naa, hei ima mae tao saa fai?”
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,
Ara rataa rae, “Taꞌo ia! Ia naa hai bubꞌuluꞌ mae, Lamatualain nanea nggo. Huu naa, hai duꞌa-duꞌa, maloleꞌ lenaꞌ ruꞌa nggita tao hehelu-fufuliꞌ taꞌo ia: Ho sumba mae,
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.
hei nda tao deꞌulakaꞌ mbali hai sa, onaꞌ hai o nda tao deꞌulakaꞌ mbali hei saꞌ boe. Memaꞌ hai rala mara maloleꞌ mo hei. Naa de, fai mana neuꞌ naa ra, hei lao mo mole-dame mia hai mbuku-kambo ma. Hai mihine tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ, LAMATUALAIN mana fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu hei.”
30 And he made them a feast, and after they had eaten and drunk:
Basa ma, Isak tao fefetas, de raa-rinu raꞌabꞌue reu esa.
31 Arising in the morning, they swore one to another: and Isaac sent them away peaceably to their own home.
Mbila fefetu na ma, ara tao susumbaꞌ. Dei de Isak fee se baliꞌ no mole-dame.
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.
Faiꞌ naa, Isak atahori mana tao ues nara rema rafadꞌe rae oe mataꞌ fo sira aliꞌ a, hambu oeꞌ ena.”
33 Whereupon he called it Abundance: and the name of the city was called Bersabee, even to this day.
De Isak babꞌae oe mataꞌ naa, Syeba, sosoa na ‘susumbaꞌ’. Ara babꞌae kamboꞌ naa Beer Syeba, losa faiꞌ ia.
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.
Esau too haa nulu ma, ana sao nala ana fetoꞌ rua mia leo Het. Esa, Beeri ana na, naran Yudit. Ma esa fai, Elon ana na, naran Basmat.
35 And they both offended the mind of Isaac and Rebecca.
Inaꞌ ka ruaꞌ naa ra, raꞌasususaꞌ Isak no Ribka rala nara.
