Genesis 24
1 Nowe Abraham was olde, and striken in yeeres, and the Lord had blessed Abraham in all things.
Abraham uanale na naruꞌ losa namalasi nala seli. LAMATUALAIN nanea e malolole, ma fee ne nasodꞌa no mole dame.
2 Therefore Abraham saide vnto his eldest seruant of his house, which had the rule ouer all that he had, Put nowe thine hand vnder my thigh,
Abraham ate nemehere na esa, tao mataꞌ neu hata-heto nara. Lao esa, Abraham noꞌe e nae, “Rena malolole! Au oꞌe ho sumba mendiꞌ LAMATUALAIN nara na. Lamatualain mana tao lalai no raefafoꞌ a. Mae, ho afiꞌ haꞌi inaꞌ mia atahori Kanaꞌan ra, fo muꞌusasaoꞌ no ana ngga Isak.
3 And I will make thee sweare by ye Lord God of the heauen, and God of the earth, that thou shalt not take a wife vnto my sonne of the daughters of the Canaanites among who I dwel.
4 But thou shalt go vnto my countrey, and to my kinred, and take a wife vnto my sone Izhak.
Musi muu sia au nusa ngga, sia au bobꞌonggi nggara. Sangga ana fetoꞌ esa sia naa, fo taꞌasasaoꞌ no ana ngga.”
5 And the seruant saide to him, What if the woman will not come with me to this land? shall I bring thy sonne againe vnto the lande from whence thou camest?
Basa de ate naa natane Abraham nae, “Malole, Amaꞌ! Te mete ma ana fetoꞌ a nda nau nema sa, naa taꞌo bee? Au musi o amaꞌ anan fo sao sia naa, do, taꞌo bee?”
6 To whom Abraham answered, Beware that thou bring not my sonne thither againe.
Abraham nataa nae, “Musunedꞌa malolole! Mae taꞌo bee o, afiꞌ mo ana ngga naa neu!
7 The Lord God of heauen, who tooke me from my fathers house, and from the land where I was borne, and that spake vnto me, and that sware vnto me, saying, Vnto thy seede wil I giue this land, he shall send his Angel before thee, and thou shalt take a wife vnto my sonne from thence.
Musunedꞌa te LAMATUALAIN mana toꞌu koasa sia lalai no raefafoꞌ a, no au lao hela nusa ngga, de nendi au losa rae ia. Ana tao hehelu-fufuliꞌ no au nae, ‘Dei fo Au fee basa rae ia neu tititi-nonosi ma.’ Dadꞌi afiꞌ hia-bii! Muu neuꞌ ena. Dei fo Lamatualain denu ate Na mia sorga nema soi dalaꞌ fee nggo, fo mundaa mo ana fetoꞌ mana nae dadꞌi ana ngga sao na.
8 Neuertheles if the woman wil not follow thee, then shalt thou bee discharged of this mine othe: onely bring not my sonne thither againe.
Te mete ma ana fetoꞌ naa nda nau tungga nema sa, naa susumbaꞌ ia nda dai nggo sa. Mae taꞌo bee o, afiꞌ mo ana ngga naa neu.”
9 Then the seruant put his hand vnder the thigh of Abraham his master, and sware to him for this matter.
Boe ma, ate a sumba no Abraham, nae eni tao tungga basa Abraham hihii-nanau na.
10 So the seruant tooke ten camels of the camels of his master, and departed: (for he had all his masters goods in his hand: ) and so he arose, and went to Aram Naharaim, vnto the citie of Nahor.
Basa naa ma, ana here nala onta sanahulu, de no atahori nara fua sudꞌi a saa meulauꞌ ra reu banda onta ra ata. De lao risiꞌ Nahor kambo na sia Mesopotamia.
11 And he made his camels to lye downe without the citie by a well of water, at euentide about the time that the women come out to draw water.
Neu mateꞌe na, ate a losa kamboꞌ naa. Ana fee banda onta ra hahae deka oe mataꞌ esa, sia kamboꞌ a suu na. Leleꞌ naa bobꞌoꞌ ena, de ana fetoꞌ ra reu hando oe sia oe mataꞌ a.
12 And he said, O Lord God of my master Abraham, I beseech thee, send me good speede this day, and shew mercy vnto my master Abraham.
Boe ma ate a hule-oꞌe nae, “LAMATUALAIN, malangga ngga Abraham Lamatua na. Tulun soi dalaꞌ, fo leleo-lalao ngga ia, hambu maloleꞌ. Mutudꞌu rala malole Ma neu malangga ngga, ma musunedꞌa hehelu-fufuli na neu au. Naa fo, undaa o ana fetoꞌ fo mana nae dadꞌi Isak sao na.
13 Lo, I stand by the well of water, whiles the mens daughters of this citie come out to drawe water.
Lamatualain, au umburiꞌ sia oe mataꞌ suu na ia. Ana fetoꞌ mia kamboꞌ ia ra rema hando oe sia ia.
14 Graunt therefore that ye maide, to whom I say, Bowe downe thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drinke: if she say, Drinke, and I will giue thy camels drinke also: may be she that thou hast ordeined for thy seruant Izhak: and thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed mercy on my master.
Dadꞌi au oꞌe taꞌo ia: Mete ma au olaꞌ o ana fetoꞌ esa ae, ‘Ana fetoꞌ e! Muꞌondaꞌ hura oe ma fo au inu mbei dei.’ Mete ma nataa nae, ‘Amaꞌ minu leo! Ma au o fee banda onta mara rinu boe.’ Naa, dadꞌi bukti, ana fetoꞌ naa Lamatualain dudꞌu basa dadꞌi Isak sao na! No taꞌo naa, au uhine, Lamatualain mutudꞌu malole ma neu malangga ngga Abraham ena.”
15 And nowe yer he had left speaking, beholde, Rebekah came out, the daughter of Bethuel, sonne of Milcah the wife of Nahor Abrahams brother, and her pitcher vpon her shoulder.
Ana nda feꞌe hule-oꞌe basa sa, te ana fetoꞌ esa naran, Ribka, nema. Eni, Abraham odꞌin Nahor no sao na Milka umbu na. Ribka ama na, naran Betuel. Ribka, meulau na seli, ma feꞌe nda nasalaꞌ no touꞌ ra sa. Ana onda oe mataꞌ neu, nadꞌai hura oe na, de hene baliꞌ.
16 (And the maide was very faire to looke vpon, a virgine and vnknowen of man) and she went downe to the well, and filled her pitcher, and came vp.
17 Then the seruant ranne to meete her, and said, Let me drinke, I pray thee, a litle water of thy pitcher.
Ribka losa ataꞌ ma, Abraham ate na nelaꞌ neu. Ana noꞌe nae, “Ana fetoꞌ. Fee au inu mbei dei.”
18 And she said, Drinke sir: and she hasted, and let downe her pitcher vpon her hand and gaue him drinke.
Ana fetoꞌ a nataa nae, “Minu leo, toꞌo!” Ana naꞌondaꞌ hura oe na lai-lai, de fee ate a ninu.
19 And when she had giuen him drinke, she said, I will drawe water for thy camels also vntill they haue drunken inough.
Ana ninu basa ma, ana fetoꞌ a nae, “Au hando oe fee toꞌo banda onta nara, fo rinu raꞌabeta boe.”
20 And she powred out her pitcher into the trough speedily; and ranne againe vnto the well to drawe water, and she drewe for all his camels.
Ana oni oe sisaꞌ neu banda onta ra mamana nininu nara, ma nelaꞌ neu hando seluꞌ oe sia oe mataꞌ fo hani banda onta naa ra, losa raꞌabeta.
21 So the man wondred at her, and helde his peace, to knowe whether the Lord had made his iourney prosperous or not.
Abraham ate na nambariiꞌ hie-hie, mete namemeu ana fetoꞌ a tatao na. Ana dudꞌuꞌa nae, “Ana fetoꞌ ia, Lamatualain hii nalaꞌ a, do?”
22 And when the camels had left drinking, the man tooke a golden abillement of halfe a shekell weight, and two bracelets for her hands, of ten shekels weight of golde:
Basa banda onta naa ra rinu losa raꞌabeta. Boe ma ate a fee Ribka bꞌua mafelit fo ana fetoꞌ ra biasa pake. Ana fee ndeli liloꞌ fo nato neu mbana na, ma kale liloꞌ pasan esa, fo olu neu lima nara.
23 And he said, Whose daughter art thou? tell me, I pray thee, Is there roume in thy fathers house for vs to lodge in?
Basa ma, ana natane nae, “Ana fetoꞌ e! Ho ama ma, nara na se? Mete ma nau, naa, au sungguꞌ sia ama ma ume na.”
24 Then she said to him, I am the daughter of Bethuel the sonne of Milcah whom she bare vnto Nahor.
Ana fetoꞌ a nataa nae, “Ama ngga, naran Betuel. Baꞌi ngga, naran Nahor ma nene ngga, Milka.
25 Moreouer she said vnto him, We haue litter also and prouender ynough, and roume to lodge in.
Sia hai ume ma mamana susungguꞌ dai toꞌo se. Uru o naeꞌ fee toꞌo se banda nara boe.”
26 And the man bowed himselfe and worshipped the Lord,
Basa ma, ate a beꞌutee neu LAMATUALAIN,
27 And said, Blessed be the Lord God of my master Abraham, which hath not withdrawen his mercie and his trueth from my master: for when I was in the way, the Lord brought me to my masters brethrens house.
de olaꞌ nae, “Koa-kio Lamatuaꞌ! Lamatuaꞌ soi dalaꞌ fee au ena, de undaa o malangga ngga Abraham bobꞌonggi nara sia ia. No taꞌo naa, Lamatuaꞌ mutudꞌu rala malole Ma neu malangga ngga Abraham, ma tao mutetu hehelu-fufuli na neu au.”
28 And the maide ranne and tolde them of her mothers house according to these wordes.
Basa ma, ana fetoꞌ a nela baliꞌ, de dui ume isi nara, basa saa fo mana dadꞌiꞌ a.
29 Now Rebekah had a brother called Laban, and Laban ranne vnto the man to the well.
Ribka naa na, naran Labꞌan. Leleꞌ ana nita bua mbilas ra ma rena Ribka dudꞌui na ma, ana nelaꞌ lai-lai, neu nandaa no ate mana rii-rii no banda onta nara deka oe mataꞌ a.
30 For when he had seene the earings and the bracelets in his sisters hands, and when he heard the wordes of Rebekah his sister, saying, Thus said the man vnto me, then he went to the man, and loe, he stoode by the camels at the well.
31 And he saide, Come in thou blessed of the Lord: wherefore standest thou without, seeing I haue prepared the house, and roume for ye camels?
Labꞌan olaꞌ no e nae, “Toꞌo! Lamatualain no toꞌo losa ia no masodꞌaꞌ ena. Dadꞌi afiꞌ mumburiꞌ siaꞌ a deaꞌ! Uma tisiꞌ hai ume ma. Hai sadꞌia kama ena, ma nanaat fee toꞌo se banda onta nara o, naeꞌ boe.”
32 Then the man came into the house, and he vnsadled the camels, and brought litter and prouender for the camels, and water to wash his feete, and the mens feete that were with him.
Basa boe ma, Abraham ate na tungga Labꞌan, de risiꞌ Betuel ume na. Labꞌan se tulun se raꞌondaꞌ sudꞌiꞌ a saa ra mia banda onta ra. Ara fee banda onta ra uru, ma rendi oe fee ate a no atahori nara safe ei nara.
33 Afterward the meate was set before him: but he saide, I will not eate, vntill I haue saide my message: And he said, Speake on.
Ara tao nanaat neu mei ma, ate a nae, “Hita tae taa, te au ae ufadꞌe duduꞌat esa dei.” Labꞌan nataa nae, “Olaꞌ leo, toꞌo.”
34 Then he said, I am Abrahams seruant,
Ma ate a nae, “Au ia, hei baꞌi ma Abraham ate na.
35 And the Lord hath blessed my master wonderfully, that he is become great: for he hath giuen him sheepe, and beeues, and siluer, and golde, and men seruants, and maide seruants, and camels, and asses.
LAMATUALAIN fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ naeꞌ neu malangga ngga, de namasuꞌi seli. Lamatualain fee lilo mbilas, lilo fulaꞌ, ate touꞌ-inaꞌ, ma banda naeꞌ. Naeni: sapi, banda onta, keledai, ma hiek-lombo.
36 And Sarah my masters wife hath borne a sonne to my master, when she was olde, and vnto him hath he giuen all that he hath.
Au malangga ngga touꞌ-inaꞌ ramalasi, dei de mama Sara bꞌonggi fee malangga ngga ana touꞌ esa. Dei fo, ana mana hambu basa Abraham hata-heto nara.
37 Now my master made me sweare, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife to my sonne of the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I dwell:
Lao esa, malangga ngga denu au sumba oi, ‘Ho afiꞌ haꞌi ana feto Kanaꞌan, fo muꞌusasaoꞌ no ana mone ngga Isak.
38 But thou shalt go vnto my fathers house and to my kinred, and take a wife vnto my sonne.
Te ho musi haꞌi ana fetoꞌ mia bobꞌonggi nggara, dadꞌi eni sao naꞌ.’
39 Then I saide vnto my master, What if the woman will not follow me?
Boe ma au utane malangga ngga ae, ‘Te mete ma ana fetoꞌ a nda nau tungga au sa naa, taꞌo bee?’
40 Who answered me, The Lord, before who I walke, will send his Angel with thee, and prosper thy iourney, and thou shalt take a wife for my sonne of my kinred and my fathers house.
Ana nataa nae, ‘LAMATUALAIN fo au tungga hihii Na, dei fo denu ate Na mia sorga nema soi dalaꞌ fee nggo, fo hambu ana fetoꞌ mia au bobꞌonggi nggara, fo dadꞌi ana ngga sao na.
41 Then shalt thou be discharged of mine othe, when thou commest to my kinred: and if they giue thee not one, thou shalt be free from mine othe.
Te mete ma bobꞌonggi nggara nda simbo sa, ma nda nau mboiꞌ ana fetoꞌ a nema sia ia sa, naa, susumbaꞌ naa nda dai nggo sa.’
42 So I came this day to the well, and said, O Lord, the God of my master Abraham, if thou nowe prosper my iourney which I goe,
Dadꞌi losa oe mataꞌ a ma, au hule-oꞌe sia rala ngga ae, ‘LAMATUALAIN, malangga ngga Abraham Lamatua na. Tulun soi dalaꞌ, fo leleo-lalao ngga ia, hambu maloleꞌ. Naa fo, au undaa o ana fetoꞌ fo mana nae dadꞌi Isak sao na.
43 Behold, I stand by the well of water: when a virgine commeth forth to drawe water, and I say to her, Giue me, I pray thee, a litle water of thy pitcher to drinke,
Lamatualain, au umburiiꞌ sia oe mataꞌ ia suu na. Ana fetoꞌ mia kamboꞌ ia ra rema hando oe sia ia. Dadꞌi au oꞌe taꞌo ia: Mete ma au olaꞌ o ana fetoꞌ esa ae, ‘Ana fetoꞌ e! Muꞌondaꞌ hura oe ma fo au inu mbei dei.’
44 And she say to me, Drinke thou, and I will also drawe for thy camels, let her be ye wife, which the Lord hath prepared for my masters sonne.
Mete ma ana nataa nae, ‘Amaꞌ minu leo! Ma au o fee banda mara rinu boe.’ Naa, dadꞌi bukti, ana fetoꞌ naa Lamatualain dudꞌu basa dadꞌi Isak sao na!
45 And before I had made an end of speaking in mine heart, beholde, Rebekah came foorth, and her pitcher on her shoulder, and she went downe vnto the well, and drewe water. Then I said vnto her, Giue me drinke, I pray thee.
Au nda feꞌe hule-oꞌe basa sa, te Ribka nema nendi hura oe na, de hando oe sia oe mataꞌ a. Ana hene ata neu ma, au oꞌe ae, ‘Ana fetoꞌ e. Fee au inu mbei dei.’
46 And she made haste, and tooke downe her pitcher from her shoulder, and said, Drinke, and I will giue thy camels drinke also. So I dranke, and she gaue the camels drinke also.
Boe ma ana naꞌondaꞌ hura oe na, de nae, ‘Toꞌo e, minu leo! Au o hani toꞌo banda nara boe.’ De au inu ma banda onta ra o rinu boe.
47 Then I asked her, and said, Whose daughter art thou? And she answered, The daughter of Bethuel Nahors sonne, whom Milcah bare vnto him. Then I put the abillement vpon her face, and the bracelets vpon her hands:
Basa ma, utane e ae, ‘Ama ma, naran seka?’ Nataa nae, ‘Ama ngga, naran Betuel. Baꞌi ngga, Nahor ma nene ngga, Milka.’ Boe ma au fee ne ndeli a ma kale ra.
48 And I bowed downe and worshipped the Lord, and blessed the Lord God of my master Abraham, which had brought me the right way to take my masters brothers daughter vnto his sone.
Boe ma, au beꞌutee neu Lamatualain ae, ‘Koa-kio Lamatualain! Lamatualain soi dalaꞌ fee au, de undaa o malangga Abraham bobꞌonggi nara sia ia. Ma au o undaa o mana nae dadꞌi malangga soruꞌ a sao na boe.’
49 Now therefore, if ye will deale mercifully and truely with my master, tell me: and if not, tell me that I may turne me to the right hand or to the left.
De ia naa, mete ma amaꞌ se mae mitudꞌu susueꞌ neu malangga ngga Abraham, naa, mifadꞌe au relo-relo. Mete ma hokoꞌ o, mifadꞌe relo-relo boe. Naa fo au bubꞌuluꞌ musi tao saa.”
50 Then answered Laban and Bethuel, and said, This thing is proceeded of the Lord: we cannot therefore say vnto thee, neither euill nor good.
Ate a olaꞌ basa ma, Labꞌan no Betuel rataa rae, “Mete ma LAMATUALAIN tao nala taꞌo naa, naa, hai mae saa fai.
51 Beholde, Rebehak is before thee, take her and goe, that she may be thy masters sonnes wife, euen as the Lord hath said.
Ribka sia ia, de mo e naa neu leo fo dadꞌi baꞌi Abraham ana feto feu na, tungga saa fo LAMATUALAIN ator nalaꞌ a ena.”
52 And when Abrahams seruant heard their wordes, he bowed himselfe toward the earth vnto the Lord.
Ate a rena nala ma, ana beꞌutee losa rae, fo noꞌe makasi neu LAMATUALAIN.
53 Then the seruant tooke foorth iewels of siluer, and iewels of golde, and raiment, and gaue to Rebekah: also vnto her brother and to her mother he gaue gifts.
Basa ma, ana haꞌi lilo mbilas ma lilo fulaꞌ, ma bua-baꞌu meulauꞌ fo fee neu Ribka. Ana o fee sudꞌi a saa mafelit neu Ribka naa na no ina na boe.
54 Afterward they did eate and drinke, both he, and the men that were with him, and taried all night. and when they rose vp in the morning, he said, Let me depart vnto my master.
Boe ma no atahori nara, endoꞌ raa fefetas. Basa de, ara sungguꞌ sia naa. Mbila fefetu na, ara fela ma, ana nafadꞌe tenu umeꞌ a nae, “Au oꞌe fo, nau naa, hai mae baliꞌ leo misiꞌ malangga ngga.”
55 Then her brother and her mother answered, Let the maide abide with vs, at the least ten dayes: then shall she goe.
Te Ribka naa na no ina na rae, “Hei halai baliꞌ tao saa? Hela Ribka nahani no hai fai sanahulu dei ma. Basaꞌ fo, mo e neu.”
56 But he said vnto them, Hinder you me not, seeing the Lord hath prospered my iourney: send me away, that I may goe to my master.
Te nataa nae, “Aduu! Afiꞌ ai au! LAMATUALAIN tulun au ena, de au undaa o mana nae dadꞌi malangga soru ngga sao na. De inaꞌ se mboꞌi hai, fo baliꞌ mii mifadꞌe malangga dei.”
57 Then they said, We will call the maide, and aske her consent.
Ara rataa rae, “Taꞌo ia! Ima fo tataneꞌ a Ribka, eni hihii na, taꞌo bee?”
58 And they called Rebekah, and saide vnto her, Wilt thou go with this man? And she answered, I will go.
Boe ma ara roꞌe Ribka, de ratane rae, “Ribka! Ia siaꞌ a nggo. Mae tungga memaꞌ mo atahori ia ra leo, do taꞌo bee?” Ana nataa nae, “Au nau.”
59 So they let Rebekah their sister goe, and her nourse, with Abrahams seruant and his men.
Boe ma, ara mboꞌi Ribka, no ate inan mana mete-seꞌu e eniꞌ a aꞌanan, fo reu ro Abraham ate nara. Ara olaꞌ fee Ribka papala-babꞌanggiꞌ rae, “Ribka! Hai hule-huleꞌ fo Lamatualain fee nggo bꞌonggi mumuhefu, fo tititi-nonosi mara dadꞌi rifo-rataꞌ. Ma hai o hule-huleꞌ fo tititi-nonosi mara rasenggiꞌ musu nara!”
60 And they blessed Rebekah, and sayde vnto her, Thou art our sister, growe into thousande thousands, and thy seede possesse the gate of his enemies.
61 Then Rebekah arose, and her maydes, and rode vpon the camels, and followed the man. and the seruant tooke Rebekah, and departed.
Basa naa ma, Ribka no ate ina nara raꞌalilinuꞌ bua-baꞌu nara, de sae banda onta, fo lao ro Abraham ate nara.
62 Nowe Izhak came from the way of Beer-lahai-roi, (for he dwelt in the South countrey)
Lele naa, Isak leo sia rae Negeb. Ana feꞌe baliꞌ mia oe mataꞌ sia Beer Lahai Roi.
63 And Izhak went out. to pray in the fielde toward the euening: who lift vp his eyes and looked, and behold, the camels came.
Bꞌobꞌobꞌoꞌ esa, ana dea neu lao-laoꞌ haiꞌ anin. Ana botiꞌ mata na ma, nita banda onta ra rema.
64 Also Rebekah lift vp her eyes, and when she saw Izhak, she lighted downe from the camel.
Ribka nita Isak ma, ana onda lai-lai mia banda onta na.
65 (For shee had sayde to the seruant, Who is yonder man, that commeth in the fielde to meete vs? and the seruant had said, It is my master) So she tooke a vaile, and couered her.
Natane Abraham ate na nae, “Toꞌo! Touꞌ mana laoꞌ nema naa, seka?” Ate a nataa nae, “Naeni au malangga soru ngga.” Boe ma Ribka haꞌi nala salenda na, de babata mata na.
66 And the seruant tolde Izhak all things, that he had done.
Ara losa ma, ate a nafadꞌe basaꞌ e neu Isak.
67 Afterward Izhak brought her into the tent of Sarah his mother, and he tooke Rebekah, and she was his wife, and he loued her: So Izhak was comforted after his mothers death.
Boe ma Isak no Ribka risiꞌ inan lalaat na rala, de ruꞌa se esa sao esa. Isak sue Ribka, naa de, ana nda afiꞌ susa ina na mamaten sa ena.
